xii. we'll make it work.

The sun shines through the window of the room, and you rub the sleep out of your eyes. When you look over to the sleeping man beside you, you mentally slap yourself across your face.

You and Bucky broke up a week ago because you needed 'space' from each other, and ultimately agreed that a break would do the job.

The first few days seemed to be going well, it wasn't awkward, and you felt as if you shouldn't have doubted the both of you as you did.

But then one night you got carried away and well, you called it break up sex but it just kept occurring, and it wasn't helping that Bucky was constantly flirting with you because he knew it took you off the edge.

You pulled the covers over your exposed body, and Bucky stirred beside you, his brown hair tasseled. When his eyes opened, he looked over to you. "Again?" he says, and shakes his head in disbelief smiling. You laugh, "I know this has to stop"

He moves so that he's laying on his side, your faces across from each other. "Does it?" he asks. "Bucky.."
"Come on we don't need space if we're doing this every night" he says. "We've been over this" you reply.

His hand reaches up to tuck a hair behind your ear, and then leans forward. This should not be happening right now. He kisses you, his lips moving in swift movements, and his hands at the bare skin of your waist.

You pull away. "This is not helping Barnes" you say, and he frowns in return. "I'm getting dressed, we have a meeting with Fury in 20 minutes if you don't know" you mumble.

You put on some clothes, only getting to a shirt when Bucky's hand grabs your wrist pulling you right back to where you were. "Stay for a little while longer" you try to move but he pleads, "please."

You roll your eyes and see the grin forming on his face. You sigh and fall back into his arms and the soft sheets of the bed.

Even though the super solider looks very intimidating when you first meet him, you know he's actually a big softie on the inside, especially with you.

Still cuddled into his chest, you can feel his piercing eyes on you, and you realize almost ten minutes has passed. "Okay Buck times up" you whisper. You hear his annoyed sigh from under you as you get up.

"You better get dressed right now too if you want to make it" you add. You don't even think to look behind you, because you know you'll be met with a set of irresistible puppy eyes.

"Are you coming down with me or no!" you yell, scrambling to the elevator in hopes that you'll have enough time. "Coming!" Bucky's voice yells back, and soon he slips into the elevator with you.

When you arrive at the meeting room, Fury gives you guys a disapproving look and you can't help but almost laugh at Pietro's attempt to hide his smirk, knowing exactly what made you two late.

After the meeting, the day went by fast. You'd trained with Nat, filled out some mission reports, and now were headed to the living room, since Wanda suggested whoever is available should come down for a movie.

Walking to the couch, you see Bucky already there sitting. Out of habit, you sit beside him, resting your head on his shoulder. When you realize what your doing, you think to get up, but you look up to his warning stare.

During the movie, you feel yourself drifting off to sleep at times, tired from the long day. When you open your eyes now, you're being carried by someone.

Looking up through your blurry eyes, you make out the figure as Bucky, and close your eyes again, knowing your safe.

When you get put in your bed, he crawls in beside you, laying on his side, an arm draped across your waist. You open your eyes to look at him, wanting to say something, but deciding not to.

Almost knowing what you're thinking, Bucky pulls a strand of hair away from your face, "We'll make it work" he whispered. That was all you needed to hear, a smile appearing on your face and falling asleep almost instantly when you closed your eyes.
