"happy birthday!" wanda and pietro shouted, a big bang erupting in the air. my eyes shot open and i nearly fell off my bed when i saw the two twins leaning over me, both wearing party hats and holding party poppers. i groaned and pulled the covers over my head, wishing for a few more minutes of sleep.
"get up" pietro tutted, pulling the covers off me. wanda wrapped her arms around me, rocking me back and forth slightly.
"thanks" i grumbled into her neck, she pulled out of the hug and before i could even open my eyes properly, pietro engulfed me in a big bear hug of his own.
"you are so old" he teased. i pulled out of the hug and smacked him on the shoulder,
"twenty six is not old" i huffed,
"whatever makes you feel better" pietro winked, i gave him the middle finger as wanda ushered him out of the room.
"i will see you at breakfast" she smiled. i gave her a quick thumbs up before pulling the covers over my head again.
"ah you're awake, finally" a voice spoke as my bedroom door opened. i peeped over my covers to see loki and thor standing there, thor held a balloon in his hand.
"happy birthday my dear y/n" loki whispered into my ear as he gave me a hug. i murmured a thank you before being grabbed by thor,
"happy birthday lady y/n, you don't look old at all" he cheered, squeezing me tightly. after struggling to breathe for a few seconds he loosened his grip,
"thank you thor" i chuckled, as he passed me the balloon.
"and where's the gift from you?" i asked jokingly to loki, he rolled his eyes and pointed at himself,
"i am your gift of course" he said smugly.

"here comes the birthday girl" tony shouted, snapping a party hat on my head. i rolled my eyes at him and adjusted the hat on my head, whilst giving him a smile.
"party's all sorted, so don't worry" he winked. i grimaced and held my head in my hands, massaging my temples.
"oh goodie" i murmured, he slapped the back of my head lightly before setting a mug of coffee in front of me,
"best present ever" i gushed, staring at the croissant and coffee which sat in front of me.
"happy birthday y/n" bruce said behind me, giving me a pat on the back. nat wished me the same, wrapping her arms around my shoulders.

"where's barnes?" i asked sam after he wished me a happy birthday. sam shrugged before taking a seat beside me,
"still asleep as always" he replied. i nodded, satisfied with the answer. bucky didn't know it was my birthday today, i never told him, i had no reason to.
"look who's here!" a voice shouted from the lift, i span around to see scott and hope walking towards me. after greeting the two of them we all went separate ways, tony went to plan some more things for the party, wanda and nat were planning on going shopping with me and the others all sat together in the kitchen. bucky was still asleep, part of me wondered if he was dead, but if he was. that wouldn't be my problem.

a few hours later, i sat in my room getting ready. bucky was awake, he greeted me earlier but definitely had no clue that it was my birthday. he knew that there was a party as well but he just thought that stark was throwing one because he was bored.
"you look beautiful" pietro called out as he slipped into my room. he wore a blue shirt was showed off his toned body,
"and you look hot as fuck" i replied, he went slightly pink before winking at me and walking out again. i stared at myself in the mirror, admiring the silk, dark blue dress i wore.

after greeting a bunch of random ass strangers, i stood alone, holding a glass of champagne and looking around at the people chattering around me. bucky walked in, wearing a black shirt. he smiled at me before walking over to steve and engaging in conversation.
"slow down on the alcohol oldie" tony's voice said behind me.
"i'm not old" i replied, flipping him off slightly.
"happy birthday y/n, you look lovely" pepper said beside him. i returned the compliment before pulling her into a hug,
"i don't know how you deal with him" i said to her as we pulled back.
"i'm amazing" tony chuckled, before passing me a little box.
"you shouldn't have" i smiled, pulling at the ribbon.
"but i did" he said smugly, watching me open his present. i opened the box to reveal a gold bracelet,
"is this...?" i began asking, staring at the bracelet.
"cartier? obviously" tony scoffed. i placed the bracelet on my wrist before grinning at the couple,
"thank you" i nearly squealed, pulling him into a tight hug.

bucky had avoided me for nearly the entire night, he was probably trying to keep it 'low profile'. by this time, i had drank a lot. shot, after shot, after shot. tony went up to make an announcement, the beginning was mostly some rubbish about thanking everyone for coming,
"as most of you know, this party was thrown for the second best person i know, after myself of course. y/n, happy birthday!" he shouted into the mic, cheering erupted throughout the room. i smiled at everyone before making eye contact with a stone cold face, bucky. he stared at me, confusion spread over his face after tony's announcement.

"oh gotta gooo" i chuckled to the bartender when bucky began walking over to me. i walked in the other direction, slipping behind random people. i ended up losing him in the crowd, a cocktail still gripped firmly in my hand as i talked to random people,
"fucking idiot" i snorted to myself when i saw a head of brown hair standing on the other side of the room.
"yeah and who's that?" bucky asked from in front of me. i jumped and blinked a couple of times,
"well hello there barnes" i chuckled, patting his shoulder before turning around, he spun me back around,
"you never told me it was your birthday" he murmured, he sounded hurt. really fucking hurt.
"it would be pretty weird to just come up and tell you" i hiccuped, lifting my glass to take another sip of alcohol. he pushed my hand down,
"i think you've had enough" he said softly, attempting to take the glass from me.
"woah woah woah, it's my birthday. so you don't dare take my drink" i slurred slightly, mixing up my words. he rolled his eyes before nodding,
"well happy birthday y/n" he said softly, squeezing my hands gently. i chuckled and wrapped my arms around his neck, falling into him slightly, one hand still holding the glass tightly.
"thank you james" i sighed happily. he rubbed my lower back before pulling out of the hug.

i waltzed off in the other direction, my heels clicking against the floor, grabbing random men who stood near me.
"y/n what the fuck are you doing?" bucky hissed, staring at me as i stood in the middle of a group of men.
"i'm talking with these lovely gentlemen, so if you'd excuse me barnes" i nodded. he scoffed and took a few steps back, his eyes giving me silent warnings. but tonight, i was in the mood to piss him off, so that was what i was going to do.

bucky's pov
y/n walked off with those strangers, her arms linked through theirs as she swayed slightly from the amount of drinks she had had. i knew she was trying to piss me off and honestly, it was slightly entertaining. steve stood beside me,
"what on earth is she doing?" he murmured, looking behind me. i span around to see y/n climbing onto the bar top, wanda stood behind her, tugging y/n's dress down slightly so she wouldn't flash herself to the group of men who stood around her like hyenas.
"let's party bitches" she announced loudly, laughing throughout her words. her hands held onto her hips, trailing up her upper body as she swayed seductively, as if she was trying to put on a strip show. everyone in the room was cheering her on, tony was drunk as hell and stood laughing his head off beside pietro. i turned my focus back to y/n to see her hands slipping into the arms of her dress as she began to tug them down.
"oh fuck no" i scoffed under my breath as i went to go stop my y/n from showing herself off to everyone.
