1941 {Bucky Barnes x OC}

11.

When I wake up his arm is still around my waist and I am still tucked into his side.

I start to kiss him all over until he wakes up. "Good morning birthday boy. Hows 25 feel?"

"There's nothing more I could ask for." We spend a good amount of the morning just laying together and talking.

When we're done I make lunch and he comes into the kitchen beaming. "You're the best." He grins at me plating our sandwiches.

I laugh and smirk at him. "Hold on, stay there." I tell him as he stands near the table only a few feet away from me.

I use my powers to lift his plate to his waiting hands and then lift my own plate to the table. He stares at me in shock.

"How are you even real?" He laughs as he speaks. "You're incredible."

"Bit by bit I'm getting better at all of this." I sigh in relief as I sit next to him.

"It must be difficult." He acknowledges.

"It is. It's not like there's a book to go off of. I'm learning a bit more every day. It really helps me that you know and aren't repulsed by me. Most people would be."

"No one in their right mind could be repulsed by you." He smiles softly at me. "I don't think there's much you could do that would run me away."

"Well, thats good to know then." I smile back.

"I'm happy to help in whatever way I can." He assures.

"The hand to hand fighting is the most helpful I think. That's a skill I definitely need to work on. You're a great teacher too. Very sexy."

"You know what? I'm not hungry, let's go." He brushes my food from my hands and lifts me onto his hips, going to the couch. "Let's do this instead." He begins kissing my neck and whatever skin he can.

"Do you want a birthday gift now or later?" I raise an eyebrow.

"I want you right now." He mumbles against my neck.

"Give me one second." I tell him.

"Please tell me this is a sexy gift. Even if you walked out naked, that'd be a great gift." He says without an ounce of joking in his voice. Please come out naked.

I go to the bedroom and change into the emerald green lingerie I purchased to wear for him. I think I hear a door down the hall but choose to ignore it.

"Happy birthday..." I say in a sing son tone as I come back into the living room in the lingerie. I see both Steve and Bucky sitting there, both looking at me floored. My cheeks go beet red and I rush back into our bedroom.

"I'm so sorry Elizabeth!" Steve calls. Oh my god. Oh. My. GOD. I was not supposed to see that. Oh my god. This is awful. But WOW.

I hear a faint knock on the bedroom door as I keep my face in my hands, completely and utterly embarrassed by what just happened. "Lizzie, you okay?" Bucky asks quietly as he slides into the bedroom.

"James! Steve just saw me half naked!" I whisper yell.

"I'm sure he barely saw. It was only a second." He tries to comfort me. "I'm sorry, I was so surprised he was here and I was trying to take my own situation down a notch I didn't even think to say anything about him being here. I'm so sorry doll."

"Trust me he saw. I hear thoughts. Remember?" I groan quietly into my hands.

"Hey, You have nothing to be ashamed of." He pulls me in front of the full length mirror in our bathroom. "You look like a pinup girl. But so much sexier." He trails his hands across the skin of my chest, taking a moment to grasp one of my breast. "You're so fit. And yet look so delicate and soft." He continues trailing his hand down my bare side.
