History of You and Me

Chapter 2

Flashback to the 30s. When Diane was 18 and the guys were 19.

The 3 of us are supposed to go out to the movies. I had picked out the cutest dress for it.

About a month ago I noticed my crush for Bucky. Its a horrible crush. The kind you always think about and can't get out of your head. This crush is different. I know it's going to stick around.

Bucky had told us he couldn't go to the movies since he found a girl who wanted to go out. It was annoying when he put girls before us and he always had girls lining up for him but never would keep one for more than a week.

Steve said we would just go without Bucky even though I really had wished Bucky agreed to come. But I would never miss out on a hangout along with Steve

I met up with Steve at the movies and hugged him tight
"Hey you"
I say to him
"You look great"
He tells me so then I show it off "It's one of my new dresses"

"It's pretty"
Steve's eyes trail off to the line for tickets
"Oh we should get tickets before they run out"

I nod to him and stand we in line. I look at the all the cars parked ready for the movie to start.

"I wish either of us could drive. Doing the actual 'drive in' for the drive in movie is something I dream to do"
"Even if we could drive I doubt we could get a car"
Steve tells me taking me out of my daydream
"I could steal one"
I joke and he smiles
"Not very ladylike of you"
We both hate how it's required to act for girls so Steve and I always make fun of it when we weren't around adults.

Suddenly I felt hands grab my waist. I look and low and behold it was Bucky
"What are you doing here?"
I ask him
"Well I couldn't miss seeing a movie with you guys"
He says.
His hand still around my waist and now fully around my waist making us extremely close. Sometimes it feels like he does stuff like that on purpose, just to give me butterflies.

"But what about your date?"
Steve asks what I was about to ask
"Well she has a boyfriend and he showed up. I had to convince the guy I wasn't into her to avoid being beaten up"

"Well good thing. We wouldn't want that precious face of yours getting bruised"
I tease putting a hand on his cheek
He kisses my hand then let's me go and follows Steve up to buy a ticket.

He's such a flirt. And it's all an act. His flirting feels very different from when he does it to me to when I see him to do it to random girls. But it doesn't even matter cause god.. do i fall for it. When we're alone he's usually just reading a book or geeking out about the new found knowledge on the solar system, which really tells me that his flirt act, is just not truly him.
But he really is so cute. Cutest guy I've ever known.

We always sit on the ground for movies. Which I was ok with it was fun.

Steve had gotten to go get snacks so it was Bucky and I.
"Too bad about the girl. Hopefully you didn't like this one too much"
I tell Bucky
He shrugs
"She was nice just not for me."

His eyes widen
"What?"
I whisper

"Over there. Girl with the blonde hair beside the big guy. That's the girl"
He says quietly

I turn around and see the girl. She's pretty but definitely not Buckys type.

"She's looking over here. I think she sees me"
He says and looks me in the eyes then back at her "She's coming over here"
Bucky says quietly

"I can pretend to be your girlfriend"
I saw quickly and Bucky nods
So I move closer to Bucky and he puts an arm around my lower back.
She walks onto our blanket with her dirty shoes and I look at her with a dirty look
"You're here too. How funny is that"
She says with a fake laugh
I stand up and Bucky does too

"Do you need help with something?"
Bucky asks, acting clueless

She looks me up and down
"Hi I'm Diane. Bucky's girlfriend"
I stick out my hand for her to shake it and she doesn't
"You were harsh to me about me having a boyfriend but you have a girlfriend. Hypocrite."
She stomps off back to her boyfriend and Bucky let's out a breathe he was holding in.
"I hate when that happens"
I roll my eyes

He gives me a small hug and says
"We make a great team Dee-Dee"
"No Buck.The best"
