Summer time was here! Gracie was sooo happy to be out of school. Two days after the school year ended, you, Steve, and Gracie flew to Bucky's beach house in Malibu. Gracie dragged Pasta, on a leash of course, towards the house while Steve unpacked the car. You stood there in awe.
"Woah. Is Bucky, like, a millionaire?"
Steve chuckled, "He's gettin' there." he handed you some bags and you took them, lugging them towards the house.
Bucky was already there and we listening to Gracie talk as he pet Pasta, "-and the lady gave me two bags of pretzels instead of one!"
Bucky laughed, "Wow. You must be pretty special, huh?" He looked up and saw you at the doorway. He took some bags off you and kissed your cheek, "Hey there, Y/N."
You smiled, "Nice to see ya, Buck."
You and Steve brought the bags to one of Bucky's guest rooms. Bucky was showing Gracie some improvements in her room.
"Daddy! Mommy! I got a bunk bed!" Gracie yelled from her room. Hearing her call you mommy made you freeze a bit.
Steve seemed to notice it too and he looked at you, "I-I'll talk to her about that."
"It's not that I don't mind...it's just...are you okay with it? I mean we've been dating for months and I don't want-"
"It's fine, Y/N. I love it, actually." Steve sat at the edge of the bed and took hold of your hand, "I think Gracie really needs a mother figure. And right now, you're that for her and....maybe you will be in the future?"
You playfully rolled your eyes, "Again with the proposal."
He laughed and pulled you closer, "I haven't felt this way in a long time. I just..I honestly feel like you're it for me. And sure it might be soon, but I just want you to know that i love you. Gracie loves you. You've become a part of us and we're sure as hell not letting you go."
"I love you guys too. And just keep that proposal in mind. I just might say yes later on in life." You leaned in to press a kiss to Steve's lips, unfortunately, you were interrupted by Bucky.
"Alright, you lovebirds! Everyone else has arrived!"
Steve sighed and hid his face in your neck, groaning, "Great timing, Buck."
Bucky laughed, "You're welcome!" and then left.
You stood back and Steve stood, "Time to welcome the calvary." you slid your hand into his and walked out of the room. You've never felt closer to Steve until now.
