[A/N: I'm sorry you guys, I saw this picture on Pinterest, I had to bless you all with it. Thank me later <33 ]

"How long are you going to be gone for?" You ask Natasha as she starts to walk out with the rest of the team.

"Probably a week, maybe more. You and Barnes will be fine on your own."

You give Natasha a confused look and whisper, "You do know I don't like the guy, right?"

"I know." She giggles. "But if you two are left alone, then maybe you'll learn how to like eachother."

"This feels like therapy." You cross your arms. "As much as I need it, I don't want it right now."

"Nat, you ready to go?" Tony asks. He still looks depressed over his breakup with Pepper.

"You don't have to go, Tony." Natasha sighs.

"I'm fine." He shrugs it off. "I'll be good."

"I reccomend playing The Game." Natasha says to you once Tony leaves.

"What's The Game?" You ask in a hushed tone.

"Ask questions, and if any of you get them wrong, take off a piece of clothing." She smirks.

"Why would you reccomend me to play that game?" You ask, half chuckling. "I don't like him like that."

"Y/N, I don't know who you think you're kidding, but it's not me." She smirks at you. "You like him, sexually."

Well, no shit. He was probably the fittest man you've ever seen. You can't let yourself get too close to him, though. Especially after how your last relationship ended.

"Natasha!" Someone calls out from the hallway. "Come on, we gotta go!"

"The Game." She repeats as she backs out of the room, shutting the door.

You head up to your room after the rest of the Avengers leave, and you bump into Bucky, who pushes past you in a huff.

He stops his journey as you're opening your bedroom door, and a call from him makes you snap your head around.

"Y/N?"

"What?" You reply rudely.

"Have they all gone out for the mission yet?"

"Yeah, a few minutes ago." You lean on your door, staring at eachother for a few seconds before he breaks the lock.

"Alright." He says carelessly, before continuing his voyage downstairs.

As you're sitting in your room, painting your nails, you can't seem to get him out of your head, no matter how much you try to take him out.

The Game.

You wonder if playing that would nessicarily be a good idea. Natasha was right, you were sexually attracted to Bucky, but not romantically. Playing a game like that wouldn't do any harm, would it?

Plus, hopefully by having him answer some questions could get you to understand why he was being so mean to you all of a sudden.

You wait for your nails to dry before you take a deep breath and leave your bedroom, going downstairs into the living room where you catch Bucky eating some plums and watching TV.

"...Yes?" He asks, looking at you blankly.

"You wanna play a game?"

"I'm listening." He says uncertainly before another bite out of his plum. Despite how hard he tries to stop it, his eyes keep drifting over to your boobs, making you smile inwardly.
