Jealousy

Being Tony Stark's 'secret' daughter made life extremely interesting. You lived a completely normal life as a college student, taking classes, joining clubs, and going out with friends. But behind the scenes you were the daughter of a billionaire and dating none other than the avenger, James Buchanan Barnes.

It's not that your dad was ashamed of you or anything, he simply knew the dangers of his life and wanted to keep you safe. Sometimes it's annoying having to live a lie but you know why he does it and it's only out of love.

Because he's so protective, when you first took a liking to the blue eyed hunk that is Bucky, he did not take it very well. At first it was a lot of sneaking around and catching glances across the room. Dad quickly caught on and you had hours of conversations. Bucky really was doing better though, he regained his memories and was wiped of any control HYDRA ever had on him. Which thankfully eased Tony's feelings.

You went to college close by, mainly because your dad feared for your safety, but also because all of the avengers were like your family and you wanted to stay close to them. Since you were younger than most of the avengers, you and Peter very quickly became best friends, you saw him as a little brother. You could relate to him, having gone through high school not that long ago, and you loved helping him however you could. Whether that be homework, girl problems, or learning how to live a double life.

"Okay so this is a linear inequality question, so first list out all of your variables and then we will use the formulas to figure out the amount of money that will be saved." It was a calm Saturday afternoon at the tower and you were currently helping Peter with his pre calculus homework. Math was never your strong suit but after doing it for a few years you remembered enough. Peter was bobbing his leg up and down and biting the top of his mechanical pencil as he stared at the problem with total concentration. It made you laugh a little seeing how focused he was. "What?" He looked up at you completely oblivious, "you're just cute." You said scrunching your nose, causing Peter to roll his eyes and a blush creeped up on his cheeks.

As he continued on with the problem you glanced up to meet Bucky's gaze immediately bringing a smile to your face. It faltered a bit when you noticed he wasn't returning the gesture. You gave him a look as if to say 'whats wrong?' but he simply looked away and continued in his conversation with Sam and Steve. You shrugged it off and continued to help Peter with his homework but your concentration was now lacking as you couldn't help but be curious why Bucky was acting strange.

"Does that make sense?" You pointed to the last problem on the worksheet. "Um yeah I think I can do this one, thanks Y/N" You smiled before patting him on the shoulder and heading over to figure out why your boyfriend was acting sour. You walked over towards the couch and plopped down next to him leaning your head into his shoulder, which would usually be returned with a kiss on the head. But there was nothing, he didn't even move when you sat down. Now you were getting annoyed, "Buck, what's your deal?" You whispered, not wanting to bring any attention to this conversation. "I don't have any deal." He responded coldly.

You looked at him in confusion, "clearly something's going on in that head of yours... just tell me. Did I do something wrong?" He sat up almost causing you to fall over onto the couch since you were placing your weight on his side. "No, seriously it's nothing let it go." And with that he was up and off to his bedroom. You sat on the couch for a moment dumbfounded when you noticed Steve giving you a look, you just shrugged at him because you had no idea what was going on.

You stood up to follow him, hating the idea of him being mad at you. You were almost out of the lounge when you were stopped, "hey Y/N could you pleaaassssee read my essay quick? It's my final draft and I want to make sure it's good before I turn it in." You couldn't say no to those puppy dog eyes. "Of course." You smiled before sitting back down next to him.

You only had to give him a few corrections and fix some grammar issues. "Y/N you're seriously a lifesaver, I love you." Peter stated pulling you in for a hug. "Anytime, I love you too dude." You released from the hug and headed straight for Bucky's room needing to figure out what was going on. You knocked on the door but received no answer, at this point you were getting furious, I mean what the hell did you even do? "Bucky, come on I know you're in there." You heard footsteps growing closer and the door was abruptly pulled open and he was already walking back to lay on the bed.

He layed his back down on the edge of the bed with his feet planted on the floor, you walked over and placed your hands on your hips. "Seriously Bucky, tell me what the hell I did to piss you off? I deserve an explanation." You stated as he just stared at the ceiling. "It's bad enough I have to worry about college boys." His voice completely monotone.

"What are you even talking about?" He scoffed, "You really don't see it do you?" You waved your hands in the air, "obviously not! So just tell me." He sat up now, his eyes burning holes into yours, "Y/N Peter is totally in love with you! And you called him cute? What was that about?" You couldn't contain the laughter that burst out of you, but Bucky was not amused. "Are you crazy?!" You laughed out still trying to contain yourself. "I'm serious! He acts like a lost puppy around you and is always taking your attention and it's getting on my last nerve."

You couldn't help the smirk growing on your face, "Bucky Barnes, are you jealous?" You crossed your arms over your chest feeling somewhat proud knowing that he cared this much. He scoffed, "I am not." You walked closer to him closing the space between you and sitting on his lap with your arms around his shoulders, at first he was stagnant, but then he raised his arms to rest on your back. "Babe. I'm almost graduated from college, Peter is in high school, he's not even legal! Do you think I'm a cougar or some shit?" You couldn't help but giggle once again.

"Okay... you have a point. But still, you're in college and I just know those stupid frat boys are drooling all over you." He rolled his eyes, "I only have eyes for one man... one old man." You smirked knowing it would piss him off. "And besides I don't want some stupid frat boy, I want you." You smiled. "Yeah yeah whatever." You placed a firm kiss to his lips to reassure him. "I love you James Buchanan Barnes, no one else. I never will love anyone else." He sighed pulling you into his chest and kissing your shoulder, "I know, I'm sorry I just cant help but worry you're gonna leave."

"Never ever. But I will be holding that fact that you're jealous over your head til I die." He finally laughed with you, "Fine I'll let you have that, I love you too Y/N, never forget that." You ran your fingers through his hair, "I never will."
