I've been trying to find the courage to talk to Bucky but I haven't really found the right time.

He's been acting strange...again. This time's different though. He's been hanging out with me a lot this past week. We've snuck out probably three times this week at night to walk around and talk alone.

I've enjoyed it of course but every time we've hung out and I've hesitated he's been very insistent.

I heard a knock on my bedroom door about twenty minutes after I woke up.

"Come in," I say still in bed looking like a mess.

"Morning beautiful," I hear Bucky say as he waltzes in.

I quickly go under the covers hiding my horrendous face.

"Why are you hiding?"

"Because I look homeless."

He laughs and I feel the bed dip but it goes silent. I end up slowly removing the covers and he's inches from my face smiling catching me off guard before quickly planting a kiss on my lips.

"So I take it you're not with Shuri again?"

"Nope."

"Great," I said smiling kissing him back.

"Something wrong?" He asks at my less enthusiastic tone.

"No it's just- you seem different. You're free a lot more which I love but it just seems too good to be true you know?"

He looks tense but breaks into a smile sighing.

"Yeah...I suppose, maybe that's a sign that we shouldn't take it for granted," he says raising his brows all flirty and jokingly.

"So what's the plan for today?"

"We madam are going on a date."

"Isn't that like what we've been doing?" I chuckle.

"No- that's just us hanging out. This is an official date sooo dress cute," he says with a wink getting up.

"Have we ever actually gone on a date?" I ponder.

"I don't think so."

"What about at the hill when we were at the cabin and you made a picnic."

"I mean I guess, I didn't really call it a date it was just to celebrate our last day."

"Hmm, soooo this is an official date?" I ask smiling like an idiot.

"Yep."

"Noted."

He leaves my room and I dread getting up but I do it so I can go eat breakfast downstairs.

Late into the day I showered and got ready for my date with Bucky. Apparently Tony wasn't here at the tower which made leaving better. I'm not sure where he is but Bucky assured me a while ago that even if he was here he had backup helping which consisted of Sam and Wanda surprisingly. I think she's still just trying to make up for reading my mind.

Since it is a date I made sure to curl my hair nicely and wear something a little extra with my makeup.

I wore a faded-looking burgundy dress with a deep cut going up my left leg. It has a tie in the center of my chest and little flowers scattered all over it.
