It had been a little over five years.
Five years since you said that sorrowful goodbye on his front porch steps, before stepping into the cold night. Away from the warmth he brought you, away from him.
And now here he was, right ahead of you.
"Bucky?" You asked in slight disbelief, wondering wether the man stood in front of you was really the boy you had fallen in love with all those years ago.
He turned around to look at you, his face contorting into an expression you could only imagine matched yours "Y/N!" He replied with a grin.
You took him fully in. He had changed from the sixteen year old boy you knew so well, he'd grown, just as handsome as you remembered those features to be, just.. more mature.
He was dressed in a soldier's uniform, you noticed. He turned back around when another girl called him name excitedly, hurrying toward him. She was holding two hotdogs and passed him one, he gave her a grateful smile and turned back to you.
He wasn't yours anymore, and hadn't been for years. Yet seeing him do your things with another girl hurt in a way you hadn't felt for a while.
Seeing him has brought back memories you had only just been able to compress, they had become just a ink blot on a page in the book of your life, but now it was spreading and was all coming back.
"Who's this?" The girl asked Bucky, finally noticing your presence, her words snapped you out of your daydream.
Bucky took a second to look back and forth between you and the girl, he hesitated, so you took the opportunity "an old friend." You answered simply, maybe this wasn't the whole truth, but it was all you were going to give.
His smile faltered slightly at your words, but you took no notice and continued speaking "well I don't want to intrude, so I should probably go," you looked up at Bucky again, into those beautiful eyes that you only saw in your dreams anymore "happiness looks good on you Buck, it really does."
He gave you a sad smile and you returned it before turning away and slipping back into the crowd. Leaving, just as you had all those years before.
Maybe you'd just lost him forever, you'd never know.
