bucky barnes imagines

x. slumber

You rolled around your bed exhausted, but still not able to fall asleep. Restless, you decide to go roam around the avengers compound in attempt to make yourself tired.

You exit your room, take a few levels up, and then find yourself walking to the kitchen. Of course you'd end up there. You look through the pantry for a snack, and take your favourite cereal out of it.

When you turn around, your heart almost stops. Bucky is there now too, just by the kitchen island. "Damn it Barnes you scared me!" you say, your heart still beating rapidly. You look up at him completely loosing himself in laughter.

"You jumped like they do in those bad horror movies" he says, still laughing. "Not funny Bucky" you reply, but you can feel a smile growing on your face.

You pour the cereal in the bowl, and then go grab the milk. "Want some?" you ask. "No, i'm fine" "Can't sleep?" he asks. "Yeah, I tried taking a walk to tire myself, but I ended up in the kitchen. What about you?" you say.

"Same here, I was going to watch a movie or something, do you want to watch it with me?" he asks. "Yeah what is it?" you reply. You smile when he answers with your favourite show.

He goes to the living room while you finish pouring your cereal. When you go too, he's sprawled out on the couch. "Move it Barnes" you say, signalling how he's taking the entire couch up.

"Come here" he asks, spreading out his arms. You hesitate at first, then crawl in beside him, your back pressed against his chest, laying to the side. His arm goes to your waist, cuddling you in closer.

Your breath hitches at being so close to him, but you focus on the show playing on the TV. Every once in a while you can feel his eyes on you, which makes your heart beat just a little faster.

You yawn when you remember how tired you were and now, in Bucky's arms, you don't think it's going to be any problem to fall asleep, so you close your eyes, and before you know it, your sleeping.

You don't notice when Bucky quietly and as carefully as he can pulls a blanket over the two of you, or when he softly brushes the hair that has fallen over your face. You also don't know the way he kissed your forehead right before closing his own eyes, falling into sleep without disruptions, which is rare for him.
