The Beauty of Winter. (Fanfic)

32

You wake up, the gentle light of the sun pooling into the room, warm and bright as it illuminated your skin. You roll over, Wanda was fast asleep next to you; when you sit up, you smile at Nat, spread across the bottom of the bed. You nudge them; both groaning with the displeasure of being woken.
"Hey guys," you bit your lip as they both shoot up, glancing between you and eachother. "I'm getting married!!" You practically squealed, Nat and Wanda joined you as you stood, jumping on the bed. Your excitement rippled out, filling the room with so much joy.

You grab your phone, pressing play on the music from the night before. You all start getting ready. Your hair falls down your back in small ringlets, the front pieces were pinned back, away from your face. Small little flower embellishments sat scattered through your hair. You had minimal makeup, keeping it all semi-natural. (I say semi because you wore a velvet red lipstic- like the one you wore the night you first met Bucky). A few shorter strands of hair fell down; delicately framing your face.

Your dress flowed down to the floor, the skirt sat gently around your legs, the bodice was fitted. The small lace flowers fading down into the skirt. The sleeves fell gently, off your shoulders. Your soft skin looked perfect against the dress. The train sat on the floor, extending long behind you.

You look up at Thor and Loki, tears brimming in your eyes.
"Hey, no crying yet, you're about to walk down the Isle." Thor was beaming with pride, his eyes glued to you in awe. Loki's hand was placed in yours, he squeezed it gently, reassuringly. You heard the gentle start of yours and Bucky's song begin to play,
"Are you ready for this y/n?" Loki stood beside you, his suit matching Thor's. You nod, taking both their arms and entering out into the garden.

Everyone stood from their seats, the white chairs sat among bursts of colourful flowers. The deep green leaves surrounding the archway that Bucky stood underneath, Steve stood behind him. Wanda and Nat walked out, soon followed by you, your train sliding gracefully across the floor. Your eyes move through the crowd, seeing Pietro stood, a huge smile on his face as he winked at you. You smile, looking over towards where Tony stood with Pepper and Morgan; who's dressed matched the crimson tie Tony wore. His eyes were filled with absolute content.

Finally, you meet Bucky's gaze, the butterflies in your stomach flutter and flap and fly in all directions as you watch Bucky wipe a tear away. You make it up to him, placing a small kiss on both Thor and Loki's cheeks before they went and sat with everyone else. You wrap your arms around Bucky's shoulders, his scent filling you completely. "You look so beautiful doll," his voice was soft in your ear and you could hear how emotional he was.
"We are gathered here today to join James Buchanan Barnes and Y/n Odinson in hold matrimony." The vicar began, eventually nodding at Bucky to speak his vows.

"Y/n, every time I see you, I fall more and more in love, and everytime I think I can't possibly love you any more; I do. You take my breath away every day and you are always the last thing on my mind before I go to sleep. I've spent over a lifetime loving you and the years we've spent together showed me what it's like to love someone in a way that consumed me. Mind, body and soul; you own every single part of me and I know you will never let my heart break. So y/n, how about a dance?" You watched as his lips curled up into the same smirk that had pulled you in from the start, you knew he would always be the Bucky you fell in love with.

"I love you so much Bucky, you poured light into my heart in my darkest moments, you have loved me through endless reasons to leave and you earn my heart nearly a century ago. So yes, I'd love to dance with you. I may be a bit rusty though," Bucky laughed slightly before placing his hand around your waist, pulling you in to him and kissing you passionately.
"I now pronounce you husband and wife... you may continue to kiss the bride." You wrapped your arms around Bucky, before pulling away, laughing with everyone as Morgan shouted,
"Ewwww!"

It was later in the evening; you and Bucky had spent the night dancing, eating cake and accepting congrats off everyone. As everyone sat down for food, you moved to the front of the room, eyes falling upon Bucky as the room went silent,
"I just wanted to thank everyone for coming today, for making the best day of our lives even better. A special thankyou to my beautiful bridesmaids over there," you smile as Nat and Wanda give a wave before drinking more wine. "Most importantly I'd like to thank Bucky for loving me, and I know, he's going to be the best farther to this little one." You place your hand on your stomach, watching as Bucky's eyes grew wide.

He practically ran over to you, lifting you off the ground and kissing you.
"Are you serious?" He placed you back on the floor, gazing into your eyes. The stunning steel-blue flooding your soul as you bit your lip, nodding your head.
"We have a scan to go to next week." His eyes lit up, a huge smile spread across his cheeks, he placed a gently kiss on your forehead before turning to face everyone. He threw his arms in the air, holding your hand; taking your arm with him,
"I'm gonna be a dad!" Everyone cheered; but you knew his excitement was mainly directed towards Steve, but ypu knew everyone was filled with joy for you both. The day getting better and better as it slowly became night.
