Secrets - Peter Parker x Reader

Chapter Ten

I woke up early, I was so excited for the party. Tonight I was gonna man up and kiss Peter. I walked into the kitchen and was immediately greeted by basically all the avengers.
"Oh um, you guys are up early!" I said, looking down at my pajama pants and oversized hoodie I stole from Steve awhile ago.
"Wait is that my-"
"I'll be going." I grabbed some food and went back to my room.

Tony
"Alright guys we need to make this the best party ever. Everyone happy, and on their best behavior. I'm talking to you Vision."
"What did I do?"
"This is y/n's only golden birthday, let's make it the best birthday ever. You know she's had a rough childhood, I don't want her thinking about it. We're all dressing up, dancing, and singing. Tonight we are all friends."
"Tony we already are friends." Nat said.
"Speak for yourself." Thor laughed.
"Hey, hey none of that. Alright. Let's start decorating. Steve and Peter, you two are on watch. Don't let her see anything. Nat and Wanda, you two are on makeup, hair whatever you girls do. Alright team. Let's make this the best birthday party ever."
"Can we hire a clown?" Everyone looked to see Scott, of course.
"Scott. How'd you even get here?"
"Uhh, my car..?"
Y/N
"Whoa that's a lot of makeup." I looked over as wanda pulled out her makeup bag.
"Oh come on, it's a party girl!"
"She's right." Nat smiled at me through the mirror as she curled my hair.
"Guys... serious question." They both nodded.
"If peter hasn't kissed me yet, is that a bad sign.
"Girlll no. He's probably scared. The boy acts like he's 13, youre a hot girl. He's probably intimidated. Plus, you're dad is his boss."
"Oh yeah good one Nat."
"Yeah you're right, I just feel like maybe he just wants to be friends."
"Well once he sees you walk in, he will most certainly not be thinking that." Nat finished up my hair right as Wanda finished my makeup. I did look good.

"Okay youre all set with makeup and hair, we need to get ready ourselves. You got the dress?" Wanda asked powdering up my face more. I swatted her hand away.
"Yes, yes. Go guys! And thank you." I hugged them both as they left my room. I stepped into my dress and looked into my mirror. I haven't looked this good ever. I was always self conscious in a house full of adults, but now I am an adult. Time to dress like one. I just couldn't get my zipper.
"Good lord this is hard." I grunting hopping around my room trying to zip my dress.
"Need help?" I froze.
"Um sure!" I cracked a small smile looking up, meeting Buckys eyes. He walked up behind me gently pushing my hair to the side. A cold wind his my back. I felt his hands move on my back as he zipped it up. He stood there for what seemed like forever until I turned back around meeting his eyes once again.
"T-thanks." Our faces were so close, I felt like he was going to lean in. I turned away before he could, this wasn't the Bucky I knew. I grabbed my robe to cover up.
"Y/n?" I turn to see Peter standing in the doorway. I breathed a sigh of relief. "Steve needs your help with something, I'm supposed to escort you or something. Oh was I um interrupting or are you on watch duty?"
"No, I was just leaving." With that, Bucky walked out. Not even turning or saying anything else.
