Still | B. BARNES

Bonus Chapter 1

📍Brooklyn, New York | August 2024

"Mm," Sapphire hummed, feeling wet butterfly kisses on her collarbones up to her neck.

"James," she quietly moaned as her weak spot was being suckled and bitten.

"Doll," Bucky whispered as his fingers began gliding underneath her shirt to squeeze on her breast.

He watched his wife opened her eyes slowly with a soft smile.

And yes.

Wife.

A week after Bucky proposed to Sapphire, they got married in a chapel nearby with Sam as their witness.

"Isn't this a good morning?" Sapphire chuckled, tracing Bucky's face with her fingers like it was brail while he hovered her.

Bucky leaned down to her place a gentle kiss on her forehead, then on the tip of her nose.

He still couldn't believe how life got them this far because he was pretty sure that he was about to spend his life alone ever since he left her.

Sapphire still felt surreal to Bucky. He makes sure to kiss her at least three times at moments like this to make sure she was not a fragment of his dreams.

"May I?" He grounded his bare hips to hers, making her bit her lips while nodding.

Sapphire got a hold of his morning wood and stroking it gently before positioning him at her entrance.

And it was all it took for them to start making love on their bed in their small house, located at the outskirts of Brooklyn.

Their pace heightened as they both got lost in the feeling of pleasure. Sapphire was a mewling mess which made Bucky appreciate the beauty below him.

Her silky pale skin was marked with his love bites, silver eyes were hooded, and white hair sprawled on her head like it was a halo.

Bucky told her in between groans and moving his hips to her, "I love you."

Sapphire felt like she was at the highest heaven with him always. But as he repeatedly hit her favorite spot, reaching her cervix with his length, she felt her stomach churn.

"James," Sapphire said, feeling sick all of a sudden.

"Hm," he looked at her and stopped the moment he saw her face with a frown. "What's wrong?"

"I think I'm going to-" Sapphire felt the bile rise her throat and pushed off Bucky immediately, rushing towards the bathroom.

Bucky watched her in concern and began to run inside the bathroom the moment he heard her vomiting.

He wore his boxers along the way with a shirt at hand and saw Sapphire leaning her head on the toilet, heaving.

Bucky kneeled beside her, rubbing her back gently.

Sapphire panted, flushing the toilet before leaning against the wall.

"You might have moved my stomach," Sapphire smiled jokingly which made Bucky shake his head at her, chuckling.

"Arms up," he told her, wearing his shirt on her head.

She wore the shirt with no protest, feeling exhausted from vomiting.

The truth is, it has been happening for 3 days now, but all those times Bucky was outside the house, and she didn't bother telling him, guessing it was just a stomach bug.

"How do you feel, Dollface?" Bucky asked softly with concern written on his face, tucking her hair behind her ears.

"You want the truth?" She answered.
