I want Bucky

Bucky had been avoiding you all day, every time you walked in a room, his faced tolurned cold, he went silent and then left. You had hurt him, it was clear. It was just after lunch and you were washing up your plate. "Hey y/n" it was Wanda, you hadn't spoken to her much yet. "Hey Wanda" you reply.

"I read your mind the night of the party, I don't know whats going on between you and Bucky right now but whatever it is needs sorting out because its obvious to everyone."

"I told him I don't want to hurt him, asked if we should leave it at the one night, stay friends, forget. He clearly didn't want that."

"But what do you want?"

"I want Bucky."

"Exactly, he wants you and you want him."

"I know but it seems strange if I run back now."

"You got this" Wanda exclaims before walking away. Maybe she was right, maybe you should go for it, but was it too soon. This is why you've always been single, you overthink. Chill y/n.

You had just finished dinner, Bucky didn't come to the table this time, Sam took his food to his room. "Hey y/n do you know whats up with Buck" Steve seemed concerned, him asking this caused you to zone out, it was your fault, you had to deal with it, "umm, no, I don't, sorry Steve" you say still in a trance, you just go to your room.

That night you can't sleep, you think of every option, but only two seemed to work, get together, the one you secretly wanted, or avoid eachother for eternity, you couldn't do that.

You decide to try and get some sleep, speak to Bucky in the morning. But the harder you try, the less able you are to drift off. You can't help but think of Bucky.
