Avengers Imagines

Ch. 32~End of the World Part 3-Bucky and Steve Smut

I surprise myself by waking before the boys the next morning and quickly change my clothes then ball up my sheets and shove them into water to soak. The last thing I need is Bucky's super soldier senses picking up on anything Steve and I did last night. I'm bathing in the outdoor shower when I feel eyes on me. The shower is hidden between the three huts, but there are no walls to trap snakes or anything else inside. It's just us out here anyway. My eyes raise and find the dark blue of Bucky's raking over my naked body in a familiar way that makes my gut roil. And it has nothing to do with the baby. Well, except its conception.

His lips part as he follows my hands over my burgeoning stomach and even from here, I can see him swallow. He takes a few steps towards me and my heart beats a little faster at the promise in his eyes, but then he freezes. Bucky's head turns slightly towards Steve's hut and with a heavy sigh, looks back to me. Steve must be up. Smiling slightly at the clear frustration on his face, I shrug and turn off the water as I wipe down to put on a clean dress. Before I can, however, there are hands turning me around and I'm suddenly looking into deep blue. Bucky pauses to see permission in my eyes before pressing a kiss to my lips.

Sweet, soft, and gentle at the start which belays the passion I'd seen in his eyes just a moment ago, but that changes when even I hear Steve's little morning whistle that he does whilst getting ready. His hand tangles in my hair as he tugs me even closer and his other hand frames my face with his thumb drifting over my cheek. The last second his lips are pressed against mine are almost bruising, but I want even more, I want him even closer. He pulls away and remains only a moment longer to make sure I'm steady on my feet before smirking and walking away.

Still, I saw the look in his eyes as he steadied me. There's love there. But I've no clue what to do with it.

The day passes as it usually does, but in the late afternoon we have a doctor's appointment. Since apparently Shuri is going crazy up in her lab with a million things to do, she decides to take a break and come to us. It's a strange arrangement with the two men on one side and a small army of women, Shuri, Nakia, and Okoye, on my other side. Having the women here make me realize my lack though and it's good to see the group.

"Step back before you smother her." Okoye snaps at both men as Shuri sets up her tech in my hut. Both grimace and shuffle back slightly while I smile.

"They're fine, Okoye." I assure her and her curled lip vanishes as she looks to me. She nods once and hums with acceptance, but keeps a sharp eye on them.

"But how are you feeling?" Nakia draws my attention again in her beautiful electric green dress that shows off her own small baby bump as she settles beside the bed on a stool. I take a deep breath and run a hand over my stomach.

"I feel big." The tent shivers with soft laughter and I smile at the sound. "I'm great, but my mobility is low, not helped by these two overprotective studs, and I'm going to pee every ten minutes."

"Sounds normal to me." Nakia says and we share a knowing smile before Shuri turns to us with a grin.

"Alright. We're ready." She says and hands Nakia the gel and wand. I pull up my shirt and shiver slightly at the chilly jelly before staring at the screen as Nakia puts the wand to my skin. The screen Shuri set up is about the size of the bed itself, so when Nakia finds the right place it's blaringly obvious. My hand is squeezing hers tightly and Okoye doesn't even scold the boys when they lean in. A baby fills the screen, my baby, and my other hand reaches for the men. I take one hand while another of theirs brushes my hair back from my face.

"Wow." I breathe as tears fill my eyes.

"Yes. It's a perfectly healthy baby!" Shuri reports with a smile to rival the sun. She looks to me with a quirked brow as she freezes the video. "Do you want to know the sex?" I stare at the picture a few moments more before I find myself shaking my head.
