Au! Bucky X Reader - Tumblr Posts
The Other Guy
Bucky Barnes x Reader x Chase Collins
Bucky sat at the dining table, sipping his coffee, and eyes glued to his laptop. He was determined to keep his eyes off a certain couple sitting at the living room.
(Y/N) laughed yet again at something that guy said, and Bucky clentched his jaw in iritation.
What does she even see in him?!, he thought. The guy had an arrogant look on him, and not to mention a handsome face.
Bucky glanced their way, and saw (Y/N) typing into her laptop, and the guying sitting too close to her, saying something.
He was too engrossed in watching them that he didnt notice the person who had joined him on the table.
Steve smirked, seeing his bestfriend in this state, and cleared his throat to make his presence known.
Bucky almost jumped at that, and quickly regained his composture, and looked back into his laptop.
“Whats the matter, Buck ?” Steve asked.
“What ?” Bucky asked, looking at Steve.
Steve raised his eyebrows, and grinned at Bucky.
“Who the hell is that guy ?” Bucky asked, giving up.
“Thats Chase Collins, (Y/N)’s friend from college” Steve informed him. “They’re on some assignment together”
“I dont like him” Bucky said, and both the guys turned to face the couple, again.
“(Y/N) doesnt seem to mind” Steve said, shrugging. “I think they’re just friends”
“Obviously, he’s trying for more” Bucky murmured, sulkily.
“Buck, Im telling you again” Steve said, exhaling loudly. “You should tell her how you feel !”
“I cant” Bucky said, his metal arm clutching at his cup tightly. “Why would she want me ?! Im the fucking Winter Soldier ! ”
And, his feelings got the better of him, crushing the cup in the process.
* * *
(Y/N) jumped up from the couch hearing a loud cracking sound. She turned to see Steve and Bucky sitting at the dining table.
Bucky’s eyes were tightly shut, and the pieces of the cup, on the table.
(Y/N) rushed to Bucky’s side, relieved to see that it was only his metal arm.
“Are you alright, Buck ?” She asked, touching his shoulder.
She felt his body going rigid on her touch.
By now, Chase was on her side.
Bucky hummed in response.
“I’ll just clean it up” He said in a small voice, not looking at any of them.
“No, just leave it there” (Y/N) said giving his shoulder a gentle squeeze. “I’ll do it”
She looked at Steve and said, “Why dont take him upstairs ?”
“Yeah” Steve, already on his feet and grabbing Bucky’s arm. “Come on, Buck”
* * *
(Y/N) watched as Steve led Bucky to the elevator. She wished Bucky gave her that kind to freedom to hold him, or touch him.
He was always so unsettled and quiet around her. He didnt seem to like her much.
Chase touched her hand, bringing her back to reality.
“(Y/N) ?” He said, in a soft voice.
“Yeah ?” (Y/N) looked at Chase, who was smiling at her.
“You love him, dont you ?”
“What ? No. I dont.”
Her heart was running on a marathon right then, threatening to burst out of her chest.
“Yes you do” Chase said, taking her hand in his.
“He doesnt” (Y/N) said. “He just doesnt like being around me, Chase ! Hes always running away from me ! He never looks at me ! I dont know what to do !”
“Calm down !” Chase said, his hands on her shoulders, holding her in place.
(Y/N), was breathing heavily, trying to calm her mind. There was a storm happening in there, and the only person who could calm it down was not ready to help.
“Have you tried talking to him?” Chase asked.
“No”
“Why not ?”
“ ‘Coz he wont stay in the same room as me for like five minutes” (Y/N) said bitterly. “Let alone have a conversation about my feelings. You saw him right now, wont even look at me !”
“Maybe he’s nervous” Chase said.
“Why should he be?” (Y/N) asked, looking at Chase.
Chase shrugged.
“Look, if I hadnt seen this today, I would’ve asked you out” Chase said, giving her a genuine smile. “I think he feels the same way you do. He was bugged that we were spending time together”
“What ?! How can you say that ?!”
“Well, its a guy thing.” Chase laughed. “We were both kinda studying eachother - leaving that aside - you should go, and talk to him”
“Chase, Im afraid, what if he shuts me out ?” (Y/N) said, closing her eyes.
Chase cupped a hand on her cheek, and she opened her eyes.
“Well, thats his loss” Chase said, laughing again. “Im here. If he hurts you, im right here”
(Y/N) laughed, pulling Chase into a hug.
“Thanks, Chase” she said, witha smile. “You’re a great friend”
“I know” said Chase smugly, and started packing his things. “See you in class tomorrow. We’ll finish the assignment then”
(Y/N) nodded, and walked him out.
* * *
(Y/N) knocked on Bucky’s door.
“Bucky ! Please let me in. I have to talk to you” she said, kocking again.
She heard footsteps, and the door opened, revealing Bucky. He was wearing a gray round neck tshirt, and apair of black shorts, his hair done into a messy bun.
“Can I come in ?” (Y/N) asked, carefully.
Bucky nodded, moving aside to let her in.
He stood by the door, not knowing what to do. He watched as she played with her hands nervously.
“Close the door ?” She asked.
Bucky obeyed, nervousness creeping in again.
“Im sorry about the cup. I didnt mean to disturb you and your friend” Bucky said, eyes fixed in his shoes.
“Was nothing” (Y/N) said, shrugging.
Bucky nodded.
“Dont you like me, Bucky ?” (Y/N) asked, all of a sudden. “I mean, why dont you talk to me ? Did I do something ? Or say something ? ‘coz I really dont understand ! I didnt mean to come in here, and attack you, but you really dont leave me a choice !”
Bucky stared at the girl with wide eyes.
“Of course I like you ! ” Bucky said, suddenly feeling a sense of confidence filling himself.
“I adore you, actually” He said, now breathing heavily, hands on his hips. “I have for a long time. Since that day Tony introduced you to us. When he said you’ll be living with us. Since then.”
(Y/N) stared at Bucky, open mouthed.
“Why wouldnt you tell me ?” she asked.
“How would I ?” Bucky asked, as if the answer was obvious. “Im an assasin. I’ve killed innocent people. And you are related to Tony Stark ! And luckily I managed to kill his parents too. So thats a bonus !”
“Bucky, you didnt do any of those things” (Y/N) said weakly. “You were brainwashed. You didnt know”
“But I did.” Bucky said, his head bowed in shame.
(Y/N) ran to him, taking his face in her hands.
“Bucky, you are one of the most beautiful people I’ve known” She said. “And since the day Steve told me all about you, I’ve loved you. I love you, Bucky ! I dont care who says what. I know you. I trust you, and thats all that matters”
“Tony would never agree” Bucky said, his hands moving around her waist.
“Well, he’ll come around one day”, (Y/N) said, a small smile creeping into her face.
Bucky couldnt help but smile. He leaned down to press his lips to hers. They kissed, and kissed again. And again.
“Um, Buck ? One question ?”
“Ask away”
“Why did you break that cup ?”
“That friend of yours, he was getting on my nerves” Bucky said, blushing. “I think he liked you”
(Y/N) giggled, kissing him again.

BLUSH - Part 2
Bucky Barnes x Reader
Natasha and Wanda helped Y/N dress up. They found her a nice black dress, and accessories to go with it.
“Do I really have to put on makeup ?” Y/N asked for the hundredth time.
“Y/N, relax !” Natasha said. “ Just simple stuff ok ?”
“Ok” Y/N said.
* * *
The boys were already at the club when the girls arrived. Bucky’s eyes went straight to Y/N, and she waved at him, with a smile.
The girls joined them at their table. Natasha headed straight to Clint. Y/N and Wanda sat between Bucky and Sam.
“I wanna dance !” Wanda said loudly over the music.
“Come on ! Me too !” Sam said, taking Wanda’s hand and leading her to the dancefloor.
“We’re going to get some drinks !” Natasha said, and glanced around with a frown.
“Wheres Steve, Buck?“she asked.
“He was talking to Sharon” Bucky said, looking around. “Was here a minute ago”
“Sharon Carter ?” Natasha asked with a smirk. “Come on, Clint”
Bucky and Y/N sat, watching Sam and Wanda dance.
“You look great, tonight, Y/N” Bucky said, looking at her.
“Thanks” Y/N said, blushing. “You too”
Bucky smiled.
Sam has created a chatroom. Sam has invited Bucky, Y/N, Natasha, Wanda and Clint.
Sam: Guys ? Y/N: Arent you supposed to be dancing with Wanda ? Wanda: Well he was SUPPOSED to! Nat: Whats going on? Bucky: Hey, wheres Steve ? Sam: Do you have any patience at all ? Y/N: Say it Sammy ! Sam: Aww Y/N :* Bucky: Do you want me to come over? Sam: Dude, relax ! Clint: Really Sam, what are you upto? Sam: Its not me ! Its Cap ! Bucky: What about him ? Y/N: OMG Nat: Y/N ? Sam: You saw that too ? Y/N: You bet I did !
“What did you see Y/N ?” Bucky asked, looking up from his phone.
“Look, at the last table, at that corner!” Y/N said, pointing.
“I cant see ” Bucky said, stretching to look.
“Come here” Y/N said, grabbing the sleeve of his shirt, pulling him closer.
Well, she pulled too hard in excitment that, he fell towards her and their heads collided.
Y/N’s eyes went wide, and she turned deep red. Bucky blushed too, his face still close to hers. His warm breath fanned her face, setting butterflies free in her stomach.
“Sorry” Y/N whispered, realizing that she was still holding onto his sleeve, and letting go.
“Its…its alright” Bucky said.
“Do you want to see it ?” Y/N asked.
“Yeah” Bucky said, sliding closer to her,and looking at where she pointed.
A smirk spread onto his face.
Steve and Sharon were at the corner most table, kissing.
Bucky looked at Y/N, who had a smile on her face. She raised her eyebrows at him, and they burst out laughing.
“Team hangouts are NOT for making out !” Nat complained. “ And he didnt tell me about Sharon!”
“Let them be, Nat” Clint said. “At least they’re having fun”
Natasha handed Y/N her coke, and the others had their drinks.
The team had a fun night, at the end of which all of them ended up on the dancefloor, following Nat’s silly dance moves.
Bucky couldnt help himself, as he felt his eyes follow Y/N the entire night. Y/N felt the connection too, but she was far too nervous to act on it.
The only one who actually saw the little bit of tension between them was, of course, Nat. And Sam to an extend.
It was past midnight, when they decided to return to the tower.On reaching, Natasha wanted to play a game.
“Nat, really ?” Wanda asked, yawning.
“Come onnnnnnn !!” Natasha said, the alcohol making her words slur a bit.
“Alright alright” Sam said.
“Clint, get the bottle” Natasha ordered.
“Right away” Clint said, running off to fetch the bottle, and returning in a flash.
“What game are we playing ?” Steve asked.
“How aboutttt…truth or dare?” Natasha said with an evil grin.
“Ohhh” Wanda groaned.
“Cool !” Bucky said.
They sat around in a circle, and Natasha spun the bottle.
The game went on in quite a funny way. When it landed on Steve, Natasha had wicked grin on her face.
“Ooooo” Natasha said. “Alright babe, truth or dare ?”
Steve glanced around the room, and saw that most of his friends had that look on their faces.
Steve nodded and said, “Ok, Truth” Natasha pretended to think hard, and then smiled.
“You were kissing Sharon Carter at the pub” Natasha said, making Steve blush. “Are you two dating ? How long has this been going on?”
Y/N grinned, at Steve’s defeated expression.
“Nat, come on ! ” Steve said shaking his head.
“Come on sweetie, we deserve to know” Natasha winked at Steve.
Y/N’s eyes darted to Bucky, who raised his eyebrows at her.
“Spill it, Cap” Sam encouraged her.
“Alright alright !!” Steve said standing up. “Its true. We’re dating, but just started a week ago. I swear its the truth!”
Bucky smirked, at his friend, nudging him, and Steve punched him playfully.
The rest of the team cheered.
“Soooo” Clint said. “Spin it Cap”
Steve spun the bottle and the game continued. Until Sam spun, and it pointed at Bucky.
“Yes, baby !” Sam looked beyond excited. “So whats it gonna be Robocop?”
“Dare” Bucky said confidently.
“Sam, kill him, bro !” Clint said.
“I dare you to kiss any girl in this room” Sam said, smugly.
“Oh come on!” Bucky groaned shaking his head.
“You’re lucky I DIDN’T specify” Sam said with a wink, sitting back to enjoy the show.
“Buck” Steve said, shoving Bucky out of his chair.
“Ok, here goes” Bucky said, walking towards the girls.
They knew Bucky wouldnt try it on Nat. She was not his kind of person. And not Wanda. She was like a sister. That would be weird. Which left only Y/N.
Sensing him coming closer to her, Y/N stood up, shaking her head.
“Bucky, bad idea !” she said, raising her hands to stop him.
He gave her a smirk, trying to catch her.
“Oh no you DONT !” Y/N ran across the room, followed by Bucky. They ran around the entire room, with the rest of the team laughing and cheering.
“Seriously, Bucky ! You dont want Tony to kill you !” Y/N said, as she ran.
“I dont mind dying ‘coz of this !” Bucky said, finally grabbing her hand and stopping her.
“Yay ! Go Buck !” Natasha cheered.
“Bucky !!!” Y/N hissed.
“Shh” Bucky said. “Dont run”
He released her slowly. But held her hand in his.
“Do it !” Clint yelled.
Bucky grinned, his eyes locked with Y/N’s. He slowly raised her hand to his mouth, and kissed it gently, his lips lingering on her skin for a while.
Y/N smiled, as he let go, and then he wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
“Awwwww” Wanda said. “ Thats a gentleman”
“Great going Buck” Steve said, laughing.
Sam and Nat gave them a knowing look, making them both blush.

BLUSH - Part 3
Bucky Barnes x reader
After a long day of work, Y/N went straight to her room, exhausted. But she couldnt sleep.
She had a bit of an anxiety issue, and her work always kept her on the edge.
Eventhough she was quite good at what she did, she doubted herself and her abilities. She never spoke of it to anybody, but it always haunted her. She constantly pushed hard to impress Tony, to prove that she was worth his time and money. Tony was a father figure to her, and she always felt the need to make him proud of her.
It sometimes left her sleepless at night. She would usually make herself something to eat at times like that. That was yet another issue. She tended to eat her problems away.
And to top it all, there was Bucky Barnes.
She couldnt stop thinking about him. She tried hard not to look at him too much, or think about him, but also failed miserably.It was all too much for her.
Y/N got up from her bed, and looked at the clock. It was only 3 in the morning. Everyone in the tower should be alseep, she thought glumly.
She slipped out of her room slowly, and made her way to the kichen. She began searching the fridge for something to eat and her eyes fell on icecream. Helping herself to a bowl, she sat at the kitchen counter, eating.
Y/N almost jumped in shock as she heard some noise behind her. She put a hand against her chest, and tried to calm herself down.
“You scared me Bucky !” she breathed.
“Im sorry” Bucky mumbled. “ What are you doing here ?”
“I couldnt sleep”
“Oh” Bucky scanned fer face to evaluate the situation.
“What happened ?” he asked, as he sat next to her.
Y/N saw that he wasnt wearing a shirt, and for the first time, she saw the part where his metal arm joined his body. There were rough scars lining it.
Bucky saw Y/N’s eyes on his arm, and he was afraid of scaring her off. “Am I making you uncomfortable ? I will go put on a shirt, just wait” Bucky said, getting up from the chair.
“No, dont ”
He was surprised to hear her say that, and even more surprised as she caught hold of his arm, making him sit back.
“Can I touch it ?” She asked him in a whisper.
Their eyes met, and Bucky gave her a slight nod. Y/N’s eyes were back on his arm. Her fingers slowly traced the scars, caressing it ever so softly.
Bucky closed his eyes tightly at that feeling.
“Are you ashamed of it ?” Y/N asked, her fingers still lingering there.
“Its not me…it only reminds me of the terrible things I’ve done”
“You cant blame yourself for it, Bucky…” Y/N said. “I see it as a part of you, which makes it beautiful”
Bucky looked at her amazed.
Their eyes met again.
Bucky smiled at her words. His heart was beating faster. Like as if she sensed it, her hand moved over to his chest, above his heart.
She smiled.
“You’re just, wonderful, you know that?” Bucky had to say.
Y/N shrugged, smiling.
“Y/N” Bucky said, taking her hands in his. “Whats the matter ? I know beneath that smile, something is bothering you, tell me about it…if its alright”
And for the first time, she spoke to someone about her fears, her insecurities, how hard some things take a toll on her.
By the end of it, Y/N was in tears, and in Bucky’s arms.
Bucky held her tightly against his chest, as he felt her relaxing, her sobs fading, and her breathing was normal again.
“Look at me, Y/N” He said, cupping her face with his hands. “You have nothing to worry about ! I was a wreck, completely lost, but Im here now…I have overcome so much ! Y/N you are brilliant ! You just need to give yourself a break !”
“I do ?”
“Yes ! You’re pushing yourself too hard…just relax, and be yourself, everyone loves you”
“Do you ?”
“What ?”
“Do you - love me too?”
Bucky smiled at her. She looked at him with teary innocent eyes.
“Of course I do” Bucky whispered, pulling her into another hug.
“You really do ?” Y/N’s voice was so small, if he werent so close to her, he wont have heard.
Y/N pulled away from him. There was so much of hope in her eyes. So much expectation, and trust, that Bucky felt his heart growing heavy.
She looked him glumly and he touched her cheek lovingly. “Yes,” he said. “I do”
“Really?” She tilted her head as she waited for his answer.
Her gaze made him stutter with his words. He only leaned forward, but just before his lips could touch hers, Natasha walked into the room with a loud yawn.
Bucky and Y/N sprang apart, staring at Natasha. Y/N heard a low frustrated growl escape Bucky’s mouth as he ran his fingers through his hair.
“Morning” Natasha mumbled, going straight to the fridge. She retrieved a bottle of water, and raised it to her mouth. But lowered it and looked at the couple at the table.
“What are you two doing here ?” She asked with a smirk, noticing Bucky’s shirtless form.
Bucky just shook his head in defeat. Y/N shrugged.
“Aww, you cute little things” Natasha said, laughing. She walked towards her room with the bottle in hand, and on her way she yelled, “ Hope you guys’ll finish that kiss !”
Bucky just put his hand to his face, as Y/N sat beside him, mortified.
“I…I should go” She said, standing up and washing her ice cream bowl. Bucky nodded.
“Thanks Bucky, you made me feel a lot better !” She said, touching his shoulder before leaving.

BLUSH - Part 4
Bucky Barnes x reader
There was only one thing in Bucky’s mind. That kiss he couldnt complete. “Its so UNFAIR !” He said. “Its killing me !”
“Buck, you can try again !” Steve said, trying to calm his bestfriend. “Im almost too sure that she has the same feelings for you”
“I dont know, Steve” Bucky whined. “If we had kissed that day - GOD ! Im gonna kill Romanoff !”
Steve tried his best to supress his laughter.
But it was just so awkward all the time. Y/N would turn bright red at the sight of Bucky, and would be completely on autopilot by then. Bucky would go all sweaty and stammer at his words.
“I feel so guilty” Natasha said, shaking her head.“I didnt expect this”
“They’ll be ok, Nat” Steve said, shrugging. “There is nothing that we can do about this”
An grin spread on Natasha’s face.
“Oh yes there is” She said, trying an evil-witch-laugh.
“That sounds really wierd” Steve said, giving her a look.
“It didnt come off as I expected” Natasha said, clearing her throat. “Come on. We have work to do!”
Natasha (along with a forced Steve), tried in their own way, to actually bring the Bucky and Y/N together.
Natasha made Y/N train when the boys were at the gym. Bucky and Y/N mysteriously ended up seated next to eachother during dinner and movie nights. She would even trip Y/N when shes in a hurry so that she would fall on Bucky.
She tried everything she could, but they just remained silent and awkward around eachother.
“This is hopeless” Natasha said, glumly. “I was just teasing them ! I didnt mean it to be like this !”
“Let them do it their way, Nat” Steve said, squeezing her hand reassuringly.
* * *
Y/N was in her room, flipping through the pages of a magazine, when she heard a knock on the door.
She opened it to find Tony standing there with a smile on his face.
“Hey! Come in” Y/N said, closing the door as Tony stepped in.
“You’ve been busy” Tony said, sitting on the edge of her bed. “No time for me, huh ?”
“Sorry, Tony” Y/N said, sitting next to him. “Had lots to do”
“Well, I cant let Banner torture you in there” Tony said. “Lets go on trip. Just the two of us - like we used to when you were little”
Y/N smiled at the memory.
“That would be great !” She said, hugging her uncle. “Thanks Tony”
He kissed her temple gently and said, “Anything for you”
“I will arrange something and let you know” Tony said, as he walked out. “Be ready !”
“You know I will be”
* * *
Tony’s visit had made her pretty happy. She stepped out of her room, and towards the kitchen, to find something to eat. She almost turned away seeing Bucky there, making coffee.
“Coffee, Y/N ?” he asked, wanting her to stay.
“No thanks, Bucky” Y/N said, giving him a small smile.
She opened the fridge to find something to eat. Her heart raced, having Bucky so close to her. She wanted to reach out to him. Hug him. Tell him she loved him. But this stress made her more hungry.
She found some of Wanda’s big cupcakes, and carried them to the table, sitting as far away from Bucky as possible. Bucky, sighed in defeat, and sat at the other end.
Steve and Natasha sat at the living room, from where they could see the couple. Natasha sighed.
“This is so frustrating” she said, placing her head of Steve’s shoulder.
Bucky sat staring at Y/N, who was stuffing her fifth cupcake into her mouth.He shook his head, knowing that Y/N always ate too much when she was under stress. She took another bite, glumly.
Bucky exhaled loudly as he stood up, and walked towards Y/N.
Steve nudged Natasha a bit too forcefully in excitment that she almost fell out of the couch.
“Y/N, thats enough” Bucky said, taking the cupcake from her hand.
“Give it back !” Y/N said, reaching up for it.
“No, you’ve had enough” Bucky said. “You’re gonna be sick”
“I dont care, give it back !”
She stood up now, wrestling Bucky for her cupcake.
“Oh God, PLEASE just let them kiss” Natasha said, watching them carefully.
“BUCKY !” Y/N whined.
Bucky put the cake in his mouth, and showed his empty hands to her.
“What the hell, Bucky ! That was the last one !” Y/N said, sulking.
“I thought you didnt like strawberry icing” Bucky said, licking the icing off his fingers.
“I dont” Y/N, pouring herself a glass of water. “Wanda made these so that I dont eat them”
Bucky laughed.
“You ate them anyway” He said.
“Yeah I did” Y/N said, shrugging. “I have to go”
She began walking towards the elevator. Bucky clentched his jaws, as he followed her.
“Ok, please tell me they will kiss in the elevator” Natasha said, slapping her forehead.
“You have a way of complicating things, Nat” Steve said. “This could’ve been avoided”
“When am I gonna see the end of it ?!” Natasha whined.
* * *
Sam has created a chatroom.
Sam has added Steve, Nat, Wanda and Clint to chatroom.
Sam : Ok, now whats up with Robo cop and Lil Stark ?
Steve : Whats wrong with them?
Sam : Cap, stop pretending that you dont know
Clint : There is something going on. They were inseparable. Now they barely talk.
Nat : Ok, as guilty as I am, you guys are gonna push me into suicide.
Steve : Natasha Romanoff.
Clint : Keeping secrets from me, Nat ?
Nat : Everyones gonna hate me.
Wanda : Y/N ate all my cupcakes. Again. And shes really upset.
Sam : I think shes upset with Barnes.
Clint : Sam’s right. Wanna talk, Cap ?
Nat : I hate you all.
Nat : Alright ! I walked in on them when they were about to kiss, and I have created this awkward tension between them. And yeah. Thats it.
Sam : Oh.
Wanda : Nat, why did you skip the part where you yelled that you HOPE they would complete the kiss ?
Nat : Thank you, Wanda. And stop reading my mind !
Steve : You know how they are. Both tend to brood on things unneccesarily.
Sam : Well done, Black widow !
Clint : Come on ! They’ll be fine. In fact, I just saw them getting off the elevator.
Nat : Oh please just kiss already !
Steve : Natasha, Im going to kill you if you say that again.
Clint : Is Tony aware of this situation ?
Steve : I dont think so. And we better not talk about it in front of him. Y/N’s gotta figure out how to do it.
Sam : If at all things get better with Barnes, that is. Thanks to B.W.
Nat : You suck.

Mystical
Bucky Barnes x reader
Bucky Barnes didnt enjoy crowds. And because of this one reason, he wasnt enjoying this outing.
"Come on, man, just a carnival ! Relax!" Sam said, Bucky grimaced, and then continued to walk, watching all the fairylights and candy floss, and all these happy people.
How he wished to feel that way.
To be happy.
To be relaxed.
He sighed audibly, and his eyes wandered, only to fall on a particular stall, standing isolated somewhat behind all the music and madness. He began walking towards it, leaving his friends behind. He felt some kind of a pull, and he walked faster.
A woman in bright clothes sat at the entrance to the stall, watching.
"Welcome to my stall, dear" She said with a smile.
Bucky looked at her, and her stall, with some emotion he couldnt quite understand.
"Why dont you just look around ?" the woman said, showing him the way in.
It was a tiny bookstall, with many ancient looking books stacked onto makeshift shelves.
Bucky felt almost stupid to be standing there, but still, there was an odd attraction that kept him there.
He walked in between the shelves of books, his mind pulling him in different directions. He felt overwhelmed and giddy, and he grabbed a shelf to steady himself. The shelf shook slightly, sending a few books stacked at the top to topple down.
A particular book, with a black and red cover, landed in his hands. 'Book of Soulmates' Was etched on the hard cover on the book. Bucky frowned, as he opened the book, and almost screamed out loud, seeing the first page.
The slightly yellowing page had his name written in the middle, in a beautiful handwriting. He looked around to see if this was a prank, and expected his friends to jump out from behind the shelves. Only no one came.
Bucky was breathing fast, feeling suffocated. He glanced back at the book, running his fingers over his name. He turned to the next page, which was blank. He flipped the pages, and they were all blank.
Giving out a frustrated sigh, he shut the book, and stood still for a moment. He thought of confronting the woman who owned the stall. He made his way towards the entrance, but a sudden cool breeze had him stop in his tracks. A sweet scent filled his nostrils. Now truly creeped out, Bucky looked around cautiously.
He froze as he felt a warmth in his fingers. He looked down at the book he was holding. A certain warm seemed to seep through its covers to his fingers.
He opened the book urgently, and saw the first page as it is. But the next page had changed. There was a light outline in it. Thats it, Bucky thought. Just as he turned to run, there was a huge gust of wind, and pages flying around. Bucky fell to his knees , holding onto te book tightly.
He closed his eyes, not knowing what else to do. The wind stopped abruptly, and Bucky waited a moment before opening his eyes. "Shit" He mumbled to himself.
The stall was gone. There was no sign of it, or the woman. It was all gone. The only thing that kept him sane was the fact that he was still holding the warm book in his hands. He quickly opened the book, and let out a sigh of relief as he saw his name in it.
The outlines in the next page had grown darker now, more clear. It looked like a portrait. Bucky squinted at it, trying to figure out the drawing. It was someone's face. What caught his eye was the outline of a star on the left cheek of the person. None of the other features were clear.
"Hey ! BUCKY !" Bucky stuffed the book into his jacket, as he saw Steve approaching him. "Where did you run off to ?!" Steve asked, his face showing concern.
"I was right here" Bucky said, shrugging. He shifted trying not to mind the book, that was getting warmer by the minute.
"Come on, lets go - the others went on to grab a snack" Steve said, pulling Bucky with him. Bucky followed him, turning around occasionaly, to see some sign of the stall. Lost in thought, he continued walking, and walked straight into someone. Bucky yepled in pain, as the book burned him.
There was another scream, and Bucky looked at the person he had walked into.
There was a girl sitting on the ground, brushing the dirt off her jacket, looking up at Bucky, her lips slightly parted, and a look of confusion etched on her beautiful face. Bucky stared at her. She long wavy brown hair, that flying around her in the breeze, and big brown eyes, glued to his face.
And the soft cool breeze that swept his face, carried a certain sweet scent. Bucky's eyes widened at sudden realization. There was a silver star painted on her left cheek. He reached for the book inside his jacket only to find that it was gone.
He felt light-headed, and he looked back at the girl. She just sat there, watching him. It was her. It was her portrait.
Bucky extended his arm to help her up. She took it without question, and they both winced as their touch burnt their fingertips for a moment, and then it was gone.
Bucky was too shocked to speak. What was happening ? "Bucky ! Bucky !" Bucky snapped out of his trance, as Steve shook him. He was still holding her hand.
"Hi" He said in a small voice. "Hi" "Im sorry, I-" "Its alright"
She had a faint smile on her lips, and she tried to tame her flying hair with her free hand.
"Im James. Bucky. Barnes" The girl giggled as Bucky stuttered with his words. "Y/N Y/L/N" She said, smiling.
Steve stared at the couple in confusion.
"Did you feel it ?" Bucky asked in a whisper. The shook her head, still smiling.
"Whats going on, Bucky ?" Steve asked again.
Bucky turned to Steve with a smile and said, "Shes my soulmate"

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
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.

BLUSH - 6
Bucky Barnes x Reader (x uncle Tony Stark)
This is the final part of 'Blush' . Thank you all for reading and appreciating my work ! :) I know it isnt perfect, but its only the beginning ! And I also happened to reach 400 followers today ! Yay ! Thank you for the love, it means so much ! :*
"Just relax for a minute. Breath." Wanda instructed Y/N, watching her pace the room.
"Hes going to hate me. Hes going to disown me !" Y/N said, hyperventilating.
"You can do this another time then" Wanda said.
"No. I gotta do this now. Get it over with" Y/N said, exhaling loudly and walking towards the door. "Just tell Bucky to stay off Tony's floor for a while" Wanda nodded, and gave her a reassuring smile.
* * *
Y/N stood in front of Tony's office, losing all the courage she had mustered a few minutes before. She knocked on the door softly, and heard Tony say 'Come in'.
Y/N entered and alnost froze in place seeing Bucky sitting in front of Tony, a guilty look on his face.
"Good timing, Y/N" Tony said. "I was about to call you" "W-why?" Y/N felt a huge lump in her throat.
Her eyes met Bucky's briefly, and then settled back on Tony's. Tony frowned, watching his niece with narrowed eyes.
"Uh- Tony -"
"Why dont you sit down ?" Tony said slowly getting up from his seat.
He turned to look at Bucky.
"So what have you gotta say, Barnes?" He asked.
Y/N froze again. He knew. He KNEW!
She stared at the two men in horror.
"Tony, Im really sorry-" Bucky said, "I didnt mean to !"
"Oh please, you didnt mean to ?! How can you even -"
"Tony, can I -" Y/N felt an urge to throw up.
"You dont say a word, Y/N! This is all on him !" Tony said, silencing her. "You're all so quick to support him, he thinks he can just -"
"Oh woah, thats so not true !" Bucky shot back.
"Is too !" Tony said.
"You guys - " Y/N said. "Let me at least -"
"No!" Bucky and Tony stood face to face now, red faced and furious.
"Bucky this is NOT the way !" Y/N said, grabbing his arm.
"Y/N, you should probably just -" Tony began. "How can you blame it all on him ?!" Y/N asked.
"Seriously ?!"
"Y/N. DONT!" Bucky said, his eyes flashing a warning.
"Why not ?! 'Coz its not just you !"
"Y/N-"
"What the hell ?!" Tony looked at both of them with wide eyes. "Y/N , how can you be so STUPID ?!"
"Tony, I wanted to -" She never got to finish her sentence, because the door burst open, and Nat rushed in.
"Tony" Nat began. "I can explain"
"What the bloody hell ?!" Tony gave Natasha an incredulous look. "Is everyone is in this freakin' tower CRAZY ?!" He said, going back to take his seat.
"Tony, you just cant -" Natasha paushed, searching for the right words.
"Natasha, I can handle this, seriously, why the hell are you here ?!" Bucky asked, thowing his hands up in frustration.
"You are so ungreatful, Barnes ! Hes gonna kill you anyway, I just thought backing you up a bit will help !" Nat shot at him. "And Y/N - she -"
"Nat, its alright" Y/N said in a small voice.
"He had to know anyway - I didnt expect much -"
"HOW CAN YOU EXPECT ANYTHING FROM THIS ?!" Tony bellowed.
"Tony they just FELL IN LOVE ! Not bloody MURDER anyone !" Nat said.
There was a sudden silence in the room. Bucky and Tony stared at Nat. Y/N just stood silently, eyes closed. The silence carried on for a moment, before there was another knock on the door, revealing Sam and Steve.
Studying the faces of the occupants of the room, Sam said " Bad timing ?"
Steve walked in, straight to Tony and said, "He wasnt alone. We were with him" Tony just stared back at Steve with his mouth hanging open.
He reached into his coat pocket for a handkerchief, and wiped the sweat on his forehead.
"I just need a moment" He said, shaking his head, and taking a sip of water from the glass set on his table.
"Cap, you were saying ?" Tony asked, eyes fixed on Steve. "He wasnt alone, Tony. Sam and I, we were with him. It was an accident - and we'll pay for everything -" Steve said, in an apologetic voice.
"Pay for what ?" Nat asked, sharing a look with Y/N.
"Why do I have a feeling that we're talking about different things?" Y/N asked, a hint of horror in her voice.
"Why dont you tell them, Barnes ?" Tony said, looking at Bucky.
Bucky exhaled noisily before speaking. "We took Tony's new car for a ride, and I was driving - " Bucky said. "And kinda had a bit of an accident - it needs replacements now"
"Oh my God" Y/N said, covering her face with her hands.
"And now, what were you two saying ?" Tony was uncharacteristically calm.
"Tony, this was NOT how it was supposed to happen ! " Y/N said, shaking her head. "I thought Bucky was here to talk about us -"
"Why do you need anyone else to talk to me for you, Y/N ?" Tony asked, softly. "Whats the worst that could happen ? I might throw him out, or maybe kill him like Nat said, but -"
"Tony !" Nat hissed.
"Im so sorry," Y/N said. "I was afraid that you might hate me after this. But, I cant help it, Tony. I love Bucky. I havent felt this before - you know it !"
Tony remained silent.
"Its always been about grades and career, but Bucky showed me something else - I want him in my life, Tony. And I want you. " Y/N said, walking towards Tony. "I can stop if you want" Y/N said, taking Tony's hand in her's. "But, that'll be it. Its going to be Bucky forever, Tony. No one else"
Tony looked at his little girl's tear- streaked face. And then at Bucky, who stood with a pained expression, but eyes fixed on Y/N, which held so much love and adoration for her. Tony looked away, trying to blink away any tears that had formed at the corner of his eyes.
He stood up, a hand tightly around Y/N's shoulder. "I've always been nothing but proud of you, Y/N. You're my daughter - there is nothing in the world that can change that. And when have I ever said a 'no' to you ?" Y/N looked at Tony with wide eyes. "Yes, its true that Barnes and I have a history of NOT liking eachother - and its not like hes killed my parents or anything -"
"TONY!" Steve and Natasha glared at him.
"Sorry - but hes a changed man, now. Incredibly STUPID, but still. And if it makes you happy, then, I want you to have it - without being guilty."
Y/N burst out into tears, and flung her arms around Tony's neck, crying into his expensive suit. Tony's eyes met Bucky's, and a secret pact - of tolerence, and trust and staying by eachother's sides for Y/N- was formed right there.
* * *
It was close to midnight, and Tony Stark stood at the roof of the Avengers Tower, watching the star studded sky.
"Cant sleep ?" Nat's voice snapped Tony back to reality. Tony shrugged, turning to look at her.
"Does it always look like that up there ?" He asked, looking back up at the sky. Nat smiled.
"On special days I guess" Nat replied, looping her hands with Tony's.
"You did so good today, Tony. Im so proud of you"
Tony smiled back at her.
"After all these years - it felt like I did the right thing. For her. " he said.
"You did. And for Barnes. After everything hes been throught"
Tony nodded.
"You're a great dad, Tony" Nat smiled at the soft blush that had settled on his cheeks.

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"
PERFECT - 2
au! Sebastian Stan x Reader
I wanted to kick myself for sneaking out of the party . It felt like those old days. And it scared me.
I saw him sitting on a bench, waiting for me. Seeing me, he jumped up, eyes shining in excitement.
“You came !” he said, grinning widely. “What is it, Seb?” I asked, looking around to see if we were being watched. “Just wanted you all to myself” he said, taking my hand in his and leading me away. “Where are we going ?” I asked, nervously.
This was so wrong.
* * *
I didn’t know what possessed me to get into his car.
“Seb, we ARE not going to your house ! We CANT !” I said, feeling horrified. “I think I’m going to need therapy again!” “Oh come on, Y/N” He said, laughing. “We’ll go to yours then”
My house was the safer option. So thats where we went. Once safely inside, I turned to question him.
“What the hell-”
His lips crashed against mine, before I could complete my sentence. I knew this would happen, but still my body took time to process it.
My hands shot up to his chest, pushing him off me gently.
“Bad idea” I told him, shaking my head pleadingly. “No” He growled, pushing me against the wall, his lips on mine again.
But this was exactly what I longed for. For the past year, he was the only person I craved to see. His voice. His touch.
Only to realise it again, made my eyes fill up with tears, and I sobbed into our kiss.
His hands cupped my cheeks, as I cried bitterly. He showered kisses on my face as I weeped. When his hands went around me, I cried with my face pressed against his chest.
“Baby, we are together now !” He whispered to me, “You are not getting away this time”
I nodded as he kissed me. Each touch brought about memories. His lips travelled down my neck, and I held on to him tightly, not wanting to lose contact. His body was so warm against my own.
It was so gentle this time. Like he was afraid to hurt me. Like he was afraid to lose me. It was the best night I had in ages.
We were in deep sleep, in each other’s arms, when I suddenly woke up hearing loud bangs on my door.
“What-” I put a hand against Seb’s mouth, and thats when he snapped out of his sleep and remembered he was in my room.
“Y/N!”
Mom’s voice was sharp, laced with a bit of concern.
“Y/N! Why did you leave the party early ?!”
I looked frantically at Seb, who was now smiling against my palm. I glared at him.
“Um…I didn’t feel well Mom !” I called out, trying to sound as gorgy as possible. “Why didn’t you tell us ?” She asked. “Open the door, dear” “Mom, I just wanted to come back OK ? I had this horrible - stomach ache !”
Seb kissed my hand, and I swatted him on his chest,making him fall back, grinning.
“Mom, I wanna sleep OK ?” I said, hoping that she would just buy my story and leave. “Alright” She said, hesitating. “I’ll call the doctor if you aren’t well by morning” She said, beginning to walk away. We laughed, as we heard her complain about the cheap quality of food the Praise’ had for the party.
“Your mom is something else” Seb said, his face red from laughing hard. “Yeah, she is” I agreed, cuddling to him. “I love you, Y/N” He said, kissing my temple. “So much” “I love you too, Seb” I said, pressing soft kisses on his chest.

I woke up to see Seb sitting up, speaking into his phone. He was whispering into it, and almost jumped out of bed when he saw me.
“I’ll call you” he said into the phone urgently, before tossing it onto the bedside table. I raised my eyebrows at him, as he sat back again, running his fingers through his hair.
“You alright ?” I asked, dreading his reply. He nodded.
“That was Madeline” I said, leaning over to pick up my clothes from the floor.
“I’m sorry” Seb said. And I knew by the look in his face that he was going to make me angry. I pulled on my dress, and moved off the bed. Sitting on the chair in front of my dresser, I turned to him.
“I’m so sorry, Y/N” He said again. “But I-”
“Just go Seb” I said, waving my hand. I was really angry. I turned to my mirror, and began running a brush through my hair.
“I swear I will make it up to you” he said, coming up to me and sitting on my dresser.
“You are not coming back here again, Sebastian, only to run away when she calls” I snapped. He exhaled loudly.
“Y/N-”
“Don’t” I held up my hand.
“You are not going to keep her for the day, and come to me at night, Seb” I said, my breathing furiously fast. “Its either me or her”
“I want you, you know that !” He said, “I just need time to sort it out ! My mom loves you, Nat. I can make it work. Just give me time.”
“I don’t know,Seb” I said, tears stinging my eyes again. “I don’t want to see another write up on you two - please - its sickening”
Seb smiled, leaning down to kiss me. “Right, now you gotta help me get outta here” he said, walking to my door.
I smuggled him to Steven’s room, where Steven was sprawled on his bed, snoring loudly. “Stevie !” I said, waking him from his deep slumber.
He sat up with a start, looking at me like as if I were a monster. And then his eyes fell on Seb.
“Oh really ?!” Steven said, slapping his forehead and falling back to bed. “Good morning, Steven” Seb said, leaning against the wall, with a smirk on his face.
“You wanna cover that up before going in front of mom” Steven said, pointing at my neck. Looking into his mirror, I saw a purplish mark on my neck. “Oh great” I muttered, throwing Seb a look.
“Back at it, you two ?” Steven said, shaking his head. “I’m not sending my sister to Africa this year, Stan. You better watch your step”
We remained quiet as Steven sat up again, scratching the back of his neck. “Come on, Steve. Get up and get dressed. I cant face mom alone. She must be waiting to grill me” I said, patting his shoulder. “And I need you to help him out.”
“Just use the balcony” Steven said. “You didn’t forget your old ways, did you now?”
“Not at all” Seb said, giving me a quick kiss before climbing down the balcony, and running off towards his car that was parked at a distance.
