BLUSH -Part 5

BLUSH -Part 5

Bucky barnes x reader As the elevator doors opened at their floor, Y/N walked out slowly, and Bucky followed. The silence was killing him, and yet he was terrified to do anything. His mind was in a debate whether to actually talk to her or not. Y/N pouted as she neared her room. Why the hell isnt he saying anything ?!, She thought. Just as she reached her door, Bucky grabbed her hand, pulling her into his room. "Bucky !" she breathed, shocked. "Y/N, things have been so weird since that night" Bucky began, running his fingers through his thick brown hair. "I dont want you to run away from me ! Please !" Y/N stood with her back pressed to the wall, giving him a wide eyed look. "Dont look at me like that !" Bucky said. "Y/N, I like you ok ? I have for a while now ! I was just so afraid to tell you! I mean, you're a Stark ! And Tony...but I cant hold it anymore. I cant-" Y/N had tears in her eyes now, and she did her best not to let them spill. "Y/N" Bucky stood close to her, bending a bit, just so that his face was inches away from hers. His hands cupped her face, as he said " I love you...I really do - " Y/N looked into his blue eyes, as he leaned in, and pressed his lips to hers. His hands dropped down to her waist, pulling her closer, as her hands went around his neck. Y/N pulled away, smiling and blushing. "I love you, Bucky" She whispered. Y/N flung her arms around Bucky's neck again, kissing him. "It was just so difficult...you didnt say anything after Nat walked in on us, and I thought maybe you didnt like me, and I was just so embarrased-" "Well, I thought you didnt" Bucky said with a laugh. "Glad thats sorted out" He kissed her again, but she pulled away, giggling. "What ?" Bucky asked, raising his eyebrows. "You taste like strawberries" Nikki said, shaking her head. "So do you" Bucky said, with a grin. "Remind me never to eat those again, please" "You are crazy, come here"                              * * * When the Y/N walked into the kitchen later that day, with Bucky's arm drapped over her shoulders, Natasha shreiked. Y/N jumped in fright, screaming and covering her mouth. Bucky looked around, frowning. "What the bloody hell !?" He snapped at Nat, when he saw no threat. Natasha dived towards them, and threw her arms around the couple. "Thank you !" She said. "Im mean really, Im so happy for you both!" "Is this woman crazy ?" Bucky asked his finger pointed at Natasha, who still had them in her grip. Sam and Steve laughed, watching the show. "Seriously you two ! " Natasha said, stepping back. "Took you long enough!" "Calm down, Nat !" Y/N said, touching her friend's arm. " Whats all this ?" "Im really sorry for messing things up that day, Y/N. I-" Nat said, blushing. "We're not mad at you" Y/N said with a smile. "You dont have to apologise" "Hey ! I am !" Bucky said. "Who cares about you, Barnes" Natasha said smugly, looping hands with Y/N. Bucky scoffed at her, before moving on to sit with his friends. "Come on " Natasha dragged her towards the elevator. "I need details !" "What details ?" The entire room froze as Tony Stark strolled in, his eyes glued to his cell phone. Noticing the sudden silence, he looked up, narrowing his eyes. "Whats going on ?" He asked, pushing the cellphone into his pocket and folding his arms against his chest. Y/N bit her lip, her brain scanning for a quick lie. Bucky stared at her, holding his breath. "I was just telling Nat about the time we went to that Safari" Y/N said, trying her best to keep her voice from shaking. "We should take her, Tony. She'll love it !" "Really ?" Tony said, raising his eyebrows at Nat. "Yep" Nat said with a smile. "I love them !" "Oh" said Tony shrugging. "Maybe we can all go !" "Sounds great" Sam said. "Lets call T'challa too. Do they have safaris in Wakanda ?" "Hmm..." Tony nodded thoughtfully, and took out his cellphone again, typing into it furiously, before walking out of the room. Bucky exhaled noisily. "You have to find a way to tell him, Y/N" Nat said, in a serious tone. "And fast" Y/N nodded. "How the hell am I supposed to do that ?!" She whined. Bucky gave her a sad smile. He knew Tony would throw a fit when he came to know. Tony had started to forgive him, and they were making actual progress, but this would change everything.

A Suicide Meeting

Bucky Barnes x Reader Warning : Suicidal tendencies Bucky Barnes sat leaning against the railing of the bridge. The water underneath was violent tonight. His fingers woven through his long chestnut hair, eyes tightly shut - Bucky was in pain. He wanted to end it all. He wanted to end it tonight. But he couldnt find it in him to do so. He was mentally debating his chances, when he heard it. It was soft at first, and then it grew louder, more clearer. Bucky opened his eyes slowly, his fingers leaving his hair as he glanced up. It was dark, but he could make out a figure by the opposite railing. When his eyes finally adjust to the darkness, he saw her. She was sobbing uncontrollably, her voice cracking with grief. Bucky sat open mouthed, watching her, almost feeling her pain, on top of his own. "No...no...NO!" She screamed, before hurling her cellphone into the water. And the next thing her knew, she was climbing the railing, and he knew this was his cue. He groaned, before jumping up from his position and running towards her. Just as her hands left the railing, Bucky grabbed her by her waist, almost missing her by inches. She screamed and fought him, as he struggled to pull her back to the bridge. "Let go !!" She screaming, her hands attacking him. "Stop it !" Bucky shot back, pulling in one swift movement, and throwing her onto the brigde. Breathing heavily, he watched her lying on the wooden floor, crying. He crouched beside her, not knowing what to do. When she finally started breathing normally again, she looked up at Bucky. "Why did you save me ?" She asked in a whisper. "I dont know" Bucky said, shaking his head, and looking away. "I just couldnt -" Bucky stood up again, and helped her to her feet. "Are you sure you wont try that again?" Bucky asked, narrowing his eyes at her. "You can never be too sure of that" She said drily. "Lets get out of here before you get anymore ideas" Bucky said, turning to walk back. It was so dark, they werent actually able to see eachother clearly, so when Bucky started walking, he felt her walking very close to him, her hand almost touching his. They walked silently for a while before they reached a more lighted area. Bucky glanced at the girl, and saw that she was quite smaller than him. She wasnt one of most beautiful girls he had seen, but there was something about her that made his insides tickle. "Y/N Y/L/N" The girl said slowly. "Thank you, for what you did" Bucky snapped out of his thought, and nodded. "Im -" he began. "James Barnes" Y/N said, her eyes not leaving the road. "I know" "Well, its not everyday that people recognize me that way - they prefer to call me the -" "You dont have to say it" Their eyes met. "Thank you" Bucky murmured. He saw a hint of a smile on her face. "Are you hungry ? We can stop for a snack" Bucky asked, stopping in front of a small cafe. "Im starving " Y/N said, nodding. They entered the cafe, and gave their orders. "What was the reason ?" Bucky asked. Y/N blushed, and covered her face with her hands. "I was stupid" she said, shaking her head. "So so stupid" "That goes without saying" Bucky agreed, earning a glare from her. "I ran away from home, with this idiot - whom Im supposed to be marrying tomorrow - " Y/N began. "Oh - what happened ?" Bucky asked. "Well, he took off with someone else, breaking up with me over a text - and not to mention taking all my money" Y/N said shrugging. Bucky laughed. "Im sorry, but seriously -" "I already admitted I was stupid" Y/N said, her shoulders drooping. "I cant go back home, James" "Why not ?" Bucky asked. "Because I ran away !! And stole money from my step-mom !" Y/N said, her eyes wide. "I cannot go back and be Cinderella again" Bucky nodded. A middle aged waitress served them their food, and then the table was quiet, except for the occasional clinging and clanging of  forks. "Seriously, this is the best Ive felt in days" Y/N said, smiling. "Thank you -again" Bucky smiled. "Dont worry about it" He said. They were walking again, slowly. "So, where are you going now ?" Bucky asked. Y/N shrugged. "I dont know" She said. "I have a friend here in the city. Maybe stay with her for a few days, till I figure out what to do" Bucky remained quiet for a while. Then mustering up some courage, he said, "You can come with me, if you want. I have an apartment, I live alone" Y/N stared at Bucky with her mouth open. "I mean, I can understand if you dont want to - but if you do want to - you can stay for as much as you like - " He was nervous, and he didnt know if he did it right - beacause he had never done it before. Y/N was about to cry again. "Im sorry - I -" Bucky took a step back, staring at the girl in front of him. "Thank you, James ! Thank you so much ! You did so much for me, and you hardly even know me !" Y/N cried. "Well, " Bucky shrugged, blushing. "It comes with some risks..." "What risks ?" "I could go 'Winter Soldier' anytime" Bucky said, "I could end up killing you in your sleep" "Oh please" Y/N dismissed him with a wave of her hand. "Dont have much to lose anyway" Bucky laughed. "Dont be so bitter" he said, "You havent seen anything. Trust me when I say that" "I trust you" Y/N said with a smile. "Lets go then " Bucky said, returning her smile. "Hey, why were you on that bridge anyway?" Y/N asked, suddenly stopping. Bucky gave her an embarrassed smile. "For the same reason you were there" He said. "How ironic"

Library Love - 2

Bucky Barnes x reader

Bucky looked at me with a little smile.

“Yeah?”

“Can you do me a favour ?”

“Sure”

He rose from his seat, and handed me a couple of books, and said, “Mind putting these back for me ? I have a bit more to do here”

“Alright” I said, dropping my bag next to his seat, and carrying the books back to their shelves.

I put the last book in its place, and turned, to walk straight into Bucky. Again. Only this time, I jumped back, hitting my back against the bookshelf, and sent dust flying everywhere.

“Im so sorry !” Bucky said, reaching protectively.

“Its alright” I said, laughing nervously.

I stopped laughing, when I saw him looking at me intently.

“Bucky ?” I asked, my voice shaking.

He just stepped forward, eyes not leaving my face.

I moved back, and my back hit the bookshelf again, and Bucky, stood, just inches away from me.

A soft smile crept up his lips.

I was trembling by now, praying that Bucky wouldnt notice it.

Bucky raised his hand, and moved a lock of hair from my face, and laughed.

“This place needs cleaning up” He announced, waving a piece of cobweb in front of my face.

I stared at him for a moment, before I began laughing.

“You shouldnt sneak up on people like that !” I said, swatting his arm.

“Im sorry, but you expression was priceless” Bucky said, shaking his head. “Come on, lets get outta here.”

I followed him back to the librarian’s desk, and grabbed my stuff.

“Dont forget your book, Y/N”

Bucky handed me my book, and winked at me.

“Bye, Bucky” I said, giving a wave before walking out.

                             * * *

“You were ALONE at the library, with BUCKY ?”

Nat’s eyes were as wide as golf balls.

“Yes, Nat” I said, sighing.

“Oh God” she said, falling back on her bed. “And did you two do anything to push things forward ?”

“Does putting books back into their shelves count ?” I asked, with a smirk.

“I hate you both” said Nat, pulling her blanket over her head.

I turned back to my book, and opened it. And let out a scream.

Nat jumped off her bed with a shriek, and looked around.

“What the was that for ?!” She asked.

I couldnt speak. I just pointed at my book. Nat came forward to take look. With a squeal of joy, she threw her arms around my neck, hugging me.

“Oh that sneaky little-” she laughed.

Bucky had left a sticky note on the first page of my book, saying, “It started at the library, so this might be the best way to do it ;) Save this number, beautiful - Bucky ”

“Oh my GOD - NAT ! What do I do ?!” I was hyperventilating.

“You text him of course!” Nat said matter-of-factly, grabbing my cell phone from the table.

She saved Bucky’s number in it, and then handed it to me.

“Text him. NOW” She ordered.

I took the phone from her nervously, and typed a ‘Hi, its Y/N’ and eyed Nat, who gave me a look. I sent the text, and fell back into my bed, my heart pounding wildly.

“Why is he not REPLYING !?” I asked, squeezing the phone between my hands.

“Give him a minute !” Nat said, excitment shining in her eyes.

My phone gave a little tingle and we both screamed before checking the text.

“Its him, Its HIM !”

‘Hey :) You finally found it !’

‘Sure did’ I texed back.

‘I was afraid if you’d find it creepy’

'Definitely not’

“Oh please” Nat said, rolling her eyes. “Psycho stalker”

This earned her a swat on the head.

'Honestly, I’ve waited for this moment from the first day I saw you’ Bucky wrote.

“Oh my God!” I squealed. “What do I say ?!”

“The truth of course !” Nat urged me.

'Me too’ I texted.

'Glad to hear that !’

'So this is why you sent me in to put those books back ’

'Haha, yeah. What are your plans for tomorrow ?’

'Nothing much. Just submitting that assignment’

It took him a minute to reply.

'Meet me at the library at 7 in the morning’

'Does it open that early ?’

'Im the one with the keys, remember?’

'Alright…see you tomorrow then’

'See you, Y/N’

                                 * * *

I couldnt sleep all night, and the next morning, I felt dead tired. I was so nervous about meeting Bucky. I could hardly do anything.

“Calm down, Y/N!” Nat said. “You know him ! Hes a nice guy !”

“I just cant help it !” I said. “Why cant you just come with me Nat ?!”

“No way ! I have a feeling about whats about to happen ” She said, and winked at me.

                               * * *

I stepped into the library, looking around cautiously. Bucky wasnt in his usual place.

“Bucky ?” I called out. “BUCKY !”

“Hey, Im here, come over!” Bucky’s smooth voice came from behind a few shelves.

I walked towards in him slowly, feeling a lump forming in my throat. I found him on the ladder, arranging some books.

“Hey” He said, smiling. He slowly came down, the smile not leaving his face.

I smiled at him, my hands turning turning cold with nervousness.

“Are you alright ?” Bucky asked coming forward. “You look - pale”

“Im ok”

Bucky took my hand in his, and grinned.

“You’re nervous” he said, warming my hand in between his.

He raised it to his mouth to press a gentle kiss on my fingers.

His eyes never left mine, as he pushed me against the bookshelf, and kissed me. I was as usual, shocked beyond shocked.

Bucky pulled back slowly, and said, “You can ask me to stop, Y/N”

I just smiled at him, the warmth from his body calming me. I grabbed the collar of his shirt, pulling him closer, and kissed him.

                               * * *

“So” Nat said, stretching the word. “How did it go?”

“Went well” I said, shrugging.

“Just well ?”

She raised her eyebrows at me.

“It went extremely well” I said with a grin. “We’re - !”

“Oh my God !” Nat was estatic. “Oh my GOD ! Im so happy for you !”

She hugged me tightly.

“We can go on double dates ! It will be so awesome !” She said.

I laughed.

“Oh wow !! Come on ! I need to educate you on this whole thing ! Right now !”

Nat dragged me to our room, and the rest was another story.

The Dare !

A Sirius Black x reader story !

Lily Evans sat on the carpetted floor of her dorm room, with her friends Marlene, Alice and (Y/N). The girls sat in a circle, and Lily held a bottle in her hands. “Ok !! Gonna spin it !!” she announced with an evil grin. She spun the bottle. It went round and round for sometime, before halting. It pointed straight at Alice.  “Alrighhhttttttt” said Lily. “Alice, whats it gonna be ? Truth or dare ?” Alice thought for a moment and said “Truth !” “Awwww whats the fun in that ?!” Marlene said. “Ok, Lils, ask !!” “Are you and Frank dating ?” (Y/N) laughed. She had caught Alice and Frank snogging once, and Alice had begged her not to tell anyone. “Ive seen thingsss” sang Marlene. “Oh alright !” sighed Alice, blushing. “Yes ! We’re together” “Yay !!” Lily and Andrea said together, laughing. “Ok, spin away ” Lily handed the bottle to Alice. The bottle went spinning, and then stopped, this time, pointing at (Y/N). “Oh YES !” Marlene squealed. “Truth or dare, (Y/N) ?” Lily asked her bestfriend. “This girl has no truths that we dont know about !” protested Marlene. “ (Y/N) - Come on, DARE” (Y/N) bit her lip, thinking. Then gave up and said, “Ok, dare” “YES baby ! I have a nice one for you !” announced Marlene. “Come on” She stood up, and pulled (Y/N) to her feet. She walked out of their dorm, followed by Alice and Lily. They moved towards the stairs, and saw the Marauders sitting down in the common room. “Alright. So I dare you, (Y/N) , to go and kiss Sirius Black. In front of his friends.” “Woah woah woah !” said (Y/N) , raising her hands, and backing away . “No way !” “Sorry, its a dare “said Lily, shrugging. “You have to do it” “Lily !!! I cant !!” whined (Y/N) . “But you people made me kiss James one time !” Lily said. “Just the same now !” “But that was James !!!” said (Y/N) . “He likes you !! This is Sirius Black !!” “So?” Marlene asked, grinning. “Just another boy ” “No !! HE IS SIRIUS BLACK !” hissed (Y/N) . “Half of the girls in Hogwarts fancies that man !” “This girl so likes him !” said Marlene, smugly. “Do not !” said (Y/N) , folding her arms. But of course she did. She adored Sirius Black. And even the sight if him gave her the shivers. She was absoultely terrified about this. She didnt want to do it. “You have to do it !” Lily said again. “You guys planned this didnt you ?” said (Y/N) glaring at her friends. “Totally” said, Marlene. “We’ve been trying to set you up with him for so LONG (Y/N) , and this is perfect ! Now go on !” “We’ll come too” Alice offered, only to recieve a murderous glare from (Y/N) . Lily shoved her towards the stairs. “Im gonna so regret this” said (Y/N) , as she went down the stairs. The girls were in their night clothes. (Y/N) wore a soft pink full sleeved night gown that came up to her knees. Hearing footsteps, James looked up from the book Remus was showing him. “Hey ” He said, grinning at Lily. “What are you doing here this late ?” “Ooohh nothinggg” said Lily. “Hi Sirius !” “Evans” said Sirius looking at Lily, and winking.Then his eyes fell on (Y/N) , who looked like as if she had seen a ghost. (Y/N) turned to Marlene with pleading eyes, and she jerked her head towards Sirius. “Everything ok ?” Remus asked. Lily gave him a thumbs up. “ (Y/N) …” Said Lily, poking her on her rib. “ALRIGHT !” said (Y/N) loudly, and went straight to Sirius, and bent down, pressing her lips to his. Remus dropped his book and James whistled. Sirius was too shocked to move at first. Then, he kissed her back slowly. (Y/N) ’s hair fell forward, which Sirius tucked behind her ear carefully. She felt giddy inhaling his lovely scent. His lips were soft and he tasted a bit like chocolate. It was all too much for her. (Y/N) pulled back suddenly, and bit her lip, embarrased. Sirius gave her an amused look, and sat up straight. Marlene and Lily laughed, along with James. Remus and Peter were too shocked. (Y/N) gave her friends another glare, and ran back up to her room.

                               * * *

(Y/N) buttered her toast glumly. “ (Y/N) , stop sulking” Lily said, passing her a glass of juice. “I hate you all” said (Y/N) , taking a bite, and chewing slowly. Marlene controlled her urge to laugh. “Dont tell me you didnt enjoy it ! ” she said. “Dont you dare !” (Y/N) growled, stuffing her toast into her mouth all together. “I hope you are aware that you’re stuffing you mouth, (Y/N) ” Lily said, shaking her head. “Shut up” (Y/N) said, trying to chew her depression away.

“Girls” (Y/N) froze hearing James’ voice behind her. She struggled to chew and to swallow, so she covered her mouth with her hands. James sat beside her with a wild grin. Sirius sat opposite to her, beside Lily, and, Remus and Peter beside him. “Hungry, (Y/N) ?” James asked, seeing her struggle. (Y/N) ’s eyes darted to Sirius, who watched her with raised eyebrows. Blushing madly, she looked down to her plate, finally swallowing her toast. “Soooo” Marlene began, nudging (Y/N) . “Black” Sirius smirked as he took a sip of his juice. His eyes were still fixed on (Y/N) . “How boring, you two” Marlene said. “Are you gonna ask her out or what, Black ? The girl kissed you !!” “MARLENE !!” (Y/N) was a bright shade of red by now. Grabbing her bag, she hopped off her seat, and walked out of the hall. Sirius stared at her in surprise. “Great going, Mar” said Lily. “Are you gonna move your arse, Black?” Marlene asked, sending James into fits of laughter. “Just go already, Padfoot ! You’ve finally got your chance !” Remus said. “See you in class” Sirius told his friends, and went after (Y/N) .

                             * * * (Y/N) felt tears stinging her eyes as she walked towards the Gryffindor common room. She felt so embarrased, and humiliated. It was true that her friends meant well, but yet, she didnt like what she did. Half way through, she was yanked into a different corridor. “ (Y/N) ” Sirius Black’s voice was soft and husky. “Are you ok ?” “Im sorry Sirius” (Y/N) said, now sobbing. “They dared me to” “Hey hey” he said, wipping her tears away with his fingers. “Please dont cry” “But I-” “I loved it” (Y/N) stared at him with teary eyes. “You have no clue how long I’ve wanted it…I was afraid to say it…” He took her hands in his. “You are such a good girl, (Y/N) . Your brilliant and studious and so beautiful ! I was afraid if you will ever want to be with someone like me” (Y/N) was out of words. The one boy she ever fell for was now holding her hands and calling her beautiful and brilliant. “I’ve been in love with you for so long, (Y/N) ” Sirius said, now cupping her cheeks with his hands. “I know Ive been with a few girls before, I always end up comparing them with you, and none of it ever worked out. They could never be you !” “I love you, Sirius” (Y/N) confessed. “I always have” Sirius laughed, touching her forehead with his. “Can I call you mine, now ? He said. "Please, dont make me wait anymore” “You can” (Y/N) replied with a smile. Sirius pressed his lips to hers. It was the best kiss ever. And they have never been happier.

Library Love - 1

Bucky x Reader :)

“Y/N ! Come on !”, my bestfriend Natasha whined, as I walked in between the huge bookshelves.

“Nat, you knew it would take time !” I hissed, giving her a glare.

Nat rolled her eyes at me, and pretended to browse through some book.

“So boring ! Can’t you just use the internet for your research ? This place is killing me !” Nat said, yawning.

“Natasha ! Im here to study !” I said, trying my best not to raise my voice. “Why did you come in the first place?”

“I had nothing better to do!” Nat said, shrugging.

“Hm. You can go if you want, Nat” I said, pulling out the book I was looking for from the shelf. “I’ll be fine”

“Of course you will be” Nat said. “But Im not leaving without you”

“Alright ! Be quiet then” I said, walking towards one of the big benches in the middle of the room, my eyes fixed on the book.

“Y/N, watch out !”

Well, Nat was too late to inform me - I walked straight into something hard and fell back. I screwed my eyes shut at the impact, and felt a pair or arms around me, blocking my fall.

I opened my eyes and gasped.

“Oh God” Nat’s voice had a touch of relief in it.

“Are you alright ?”

That was a new voice. I looked at the man in front of me, who was holding me, a look of concern on his handsome face.

“I-” I stared at him.

Those blue eyes.

“Y/N” Nat’s voice brought me back to reality again.

Thats when I noticed that I held my book tightly against my chest with one hand, and my other hand was on his shoulder. The fabric of his shirt crumbled under my tight grip.

I quickly let go, blushing.

“Are you alright, Y/N ? ” He asked again. Thanks to Nat, he knew my name !

“Yes, Im fine. Thanks for, um, -” I said, feeling the heat rise to my face.

He smiled, and said, “You’re welcome”

I smiled back, almost fully smitten by his good looks.

Nat was on my side by now, her hand squeezing mine tightly.

“See you around then” I managed to say, wanting to escape from this situation.

“See you” He said, and with a nod to Nat, he walked off.

Just as he was out of our sight, Nat burst.

“What the HELL was that ?!” she said, eyes wide.

“What ?” I asked, sitting down on the bench.

“See you around ?” Nat asked.

“Its not like I will be seeing him or anything” I said, feeling a bit of regret in that.

“Exactly !” Nat said. “Did you see him?!”

I raised my eyebrows at her.

“You already have a boyfriend ! You shouldnt check out other guys ” I said, with a grin.

“I checked him out for you, moron!” Nat said, shaking her head. “I cant believe you let him leave like that !”

“What are you trying to say?” I asked, closing my book, and looking at her.

“You should have talked !” Nat said. “Asked for his number or something!”

“Sorry, no” I said, “I dont do that”

“Hence your single situation!” Nat scoffed.

“Hey, Im totally fine with being single!” I argued.

“No you’re not !” Nat shot back. “That guy was perfect ! Did you hear the way he said your name ?”

“Yes” Was all I could say. My name never actually felt that good. Hm.

“Well, good thing you have me as your bestfriend !” Nat announced, with a grin.

“No, I dont like the sound of that” I said, shaking my head. “ Nat, whatever you’re thinking - DON’T”

“Oh please” Nat said, giving me a bored look. “I wonder if hes gone… Just wait here!”

Nat was too quick for me. She sprinted across the room in split second, and I sat staring at the direction she ran. And a certain dread came over me.

                                  * * *

“Nat please tell me you didnt do anything stupid” I said, sitting on my bed, feeling totally burdened.

“Y/N, for the hundredth time ! He wasnt there ! I didn’t meet him !” Nat said. “I swear !”

I nodded.

“I wish he told me his name” I wondered out loud.

“DON’T YOU DARE !”

Nat had a wild look on her as she said that.

                                * * *

I was at the library in my usual time, and I walked towards the librarian to return a book.

I almost lost my breath, seeing HIM standing there.

“Hey!” He said with a smile. “Y/N?”

“H-hi” I said, feeling a lump forming in my throat. “You work here ?”

“Only helping out Mrs.Christie” He said, with a smile.

“Oh, thats nice” I said. “How long have you been doing this ?”

“Well, I started last week” He said. “That same day”

“Oh…” I was so afraid if Nat had done something that I skipped coming to the library a whole week.

“Bucky” He said, taking the book from me.

“Hm ?”

“Bucky Barnes. My name” He said, his smile widening.

“Well, you know mine right ? Y/N  Y/L/ N” I said, smiling back at him.

He laughed.

“Thanks to your friend” he said.

“Yep, thanks to her”

We met almost regularly after that. He was a very fun person to be with, and he was slowly creeping into my heart too. I was not ready to admit it to myself, even. Thats when Nat found out.

“I cant believe how primitive you two are !” She sighed. “You dont even have his number !”

“Stop it, Nat” I whined, trying to wrestle her out of my bed.

“Seriously, Y/N” She said. “You gotta woman up, and make a move ”

“Not happening” I said, shaking my head stubbornly.

Nat exhaled loudly, giving me a dirty look.

                              * * * Over the next couple of days, I didnt have much time to talk to Bucky. As disappointing as it was, I had an assignment due that very Friday, and there was no way I could fall behind in it.

After a long day of reading and typing, I was finally ready to leave. I felt a sudden shiver, when I saw that library was almost completely empty - was everyone gone ?

I raced to the desk where Bucky usually worked, and let out a sigh of relief to see him sitting there.

Bucky looked up, and smiled.

“I thought I got locked in” I said, leaning against a bookshelf.

“Wont do that to you, now would I?” Bucky asked, with a grin. “Pretty busy these days, I see”

“College work” I said with a shrug. “Just too many assignments”

Bucky nodded understandingly.

“Y/N?”

Bucky Barnes x Reader

Just cute cute Bucky :*

I stood in front of the mirror, touching up my make up. I loved the beautiful red gown Tony had gifted me, to wear to his christmas party.

Knowing Tony, it was going to be huge. He had been quite busy with the preparations for quite a while, and he wanted everything, and everyone to be just perfect.

I was almost done, when I heard a knock on my door.

“(Y/N)! Can I come in ?”

Bucky’s voice brought a smile to my face. This was his first big event since Tony had invited him over to stay with us at the Avengers tower. Tony had even gifted him with his party outfit - A brilliant tuxedo.

“Come in, Buck” I called out.

The door opened and a flustered Bucky stepped in. He came towards me , closing the door behind him.

“You alright ?” I turned to face him. “Bucky ?”

He stood staring at me, mouth slightly open.

“Y-You look beautiful !” He said, coming forward to pull me into a hug, lifting me off my feet.

I giggled, kissing him gently.

“Thanks, handsome” I said, and winked, as he put me down.

“Ok, now, I need help” Bucky said, holding his hand up. A button sat on his palm.

“Again, Buck ?” I asked, laughing.  “How do you manage to do this all the time ?”

“Im sorry ! Just fix it for me, (Y/N). Tony’s gonna kill me if he finds out” Bucky whined.

“Alright alright !” I said, leading him to my bed.

I sat, and fished into one of the drawers of my bedside table to find a needle and thread, and began working on his button. Bucky stood in front of me, hands on his hips, and tapping his foot every now and then.

“Are you nervous, Buck ?” I asked, looking up.

“Im not sure about this, (Y/N)” He said, in a small voice. “Im not sure if people will ever accept me…its all so difficult…Im not sure if Im ready to face anybody yet”

“Bucky, you didnt do any of those things- no one can blame you for it ! And if they do, they’re gonna have to deal with me!” I said, and it brought a small smile on his face.

He knew it was true. I had broken a few noses for him before - at nightclubs, parks, malls - he knew I wouldnt mind doing it again.

“So how did you pop this one ?” I asked, trying to change the subject.

Bucky gave me a wide eyed look, and before he could reply, my door flew open, and Sam stepped in.

“What the hell-!” He screamed, narrowing his eyes at us.

Steve walked in casually, going straight towards my mirror, and adjusting his coat.

“How many times are you gonna pull out those buttons, Barnes ?” Sam asked, sitting beside me.

“Shut up” Bucky grumbled.

“Hes doing it on purpose, (Y/N)” Sam scoffed. “Just so that he can make you put it back-”

Bucky blushed, and glared at Sam. Steve laughed, squeezing Bucky’s shoulder lightly.

“Is that so?” I asked Bucky, mock- glaring at him.

“Of course not !” Bucky said, looking away, and folding his hands firmly against his shirt.

“If thats the case” I stood up, frowning.

The boys looked at me, as I reached out and plucked a button off Bucky’s shirt, a wide grin spreading on my face.

“Oh come on!” Sam groaned. “Such babies !”

Bucky laughed, as I put my arms around his neck, pulling him into a kiss. His arms went around my waist, holding me tightly against his chest.

“We have 10 minutes before the party! ” Steve said, glancing at his watch. “Fix that shirt, and do it fast !”

“Im telling Stark !” Sam said, shaking his head, and walking out of the room, followed by a laughing Steve.

“I love you, (Y/N)” Bucky whispered against my lips. “I love you too, Bucky” I said, giving him one last kiss before returning to fix his shirt.
