Steve seemed to not be the only one who thought the weekend before Bucky's birthday was the best time to celebrate. However, as Bucky pulled up outside the Barnes family home, Steve sure wished that he had been the only one. With there being twice as many cars outside the two story house, Steve's mouth dropped open. Only for him to remember that he had been eating a pop tart and hadn't swallowed it yet.
"Um," Steve started, but stopped. He wasn't sure what to say. Continuing to eat the pop tart, Steve joked, "This better not be a surprise baby shower."
"I told them I'd disown them if they did anything like that," Bucky reassured, unbuckling.
Since Bucky climbed out of his Volvo, Steve decided to as well. Shoving the rest of the pop tart into his mouth as he got ready to leave the warmth of his vehicle. Although Steve had never been a fan of pop tarts before, it seemed like Squirt did. Bucky even had an emergency box in the glove compartment just in case Steve got hungry while driving.
Steve had unbuckled and was about to open the door when Bucky did it for him. And while Steve feigned annoyance when Bucky helped him out of the SUV, he was glad to have Bucky's strong grasp keeping him steady. Especially with there being a thin layer of ice on the ground.
Up the slick walk, Steve clasped harshly to Bucky's arm and was glad when they reached the dry porch so he could stop worrying that he was about to fall. Bucky eased too and let go of Steve so he could open the door and hold it open for him. Smiling, Steve entered the house with Bucky right behind him.
When Bucky went to help Steve out of his coat, Steve complained, "I can do it myself. I'm not that big, yet."
In reply, Bucky kissed his temple, but let Steve shrug out of his jacket by himself. He did hang up the coat in the closet though. The packed closet. That overflowed onto the staircase across from it.
Steve could already feel his hands get clammy.
"Jimmy, is that you?" A woman's voice greeted.
Turning, Steve found an older woman who looked to be around Winnie and George's age. Bucky accepted the hug and greeted, "Aunt Diana."
Giving him a squeeze, she claimed, "You've gotten so big! Thirty-three, I can't believe it! I still remember when you and Becca were born!" Her eyes shifted to Steve then, and she quickly removed herself from Bucky's grasp and shoved the alpha out of her way to approach the petite omega. "Goodness, aren't you just the cutest thing."
Just as quickly as she hugged Bucky, the eager beta hugged Steve. Not knowing what to do, Steve gave her back a pat and Bucky introduced, "Aunt Diana, this is Steve."
Pulling back, Aunt Diana answered, "Well, I knew that. Your mom can't stop talking about him." Then, without missing a beat, she placed her hands on Squirt and asked, "And who will this be?"
"We're not sure," Bucky said since Steve was speechless. "They were too shy at the last ultrasound."
"Ya know, I've always been fond of, 'Georgetta,'" Diana offered, dropping her hands since Squirt wasn't kicking yet.
"Ooh," Bucky humored her. Steve gave him a pointed look that said, we ARE NOT naming our child that! Playfully, Bucky rolled his eyes and Steve was glad that they were on the same page, even as Bucky continued, "We'll think about it."
"Or, 'Heather,'" Diana suggested, linking her arm with Steve's.
"Yeah, that's a nice name," Steve falsely agreed, despite the name conjuring images of his seventh grade bully.
