Bucky Barnes - one shots

Not a Chance

“Y/n! Would you mind coming down here for a minute?” Steve yelled to you from the common room of the compound. 

“Yeah, be right there.” You yelled back to him in response, then started running out and down the stairs immediately. When you walked into the common area there were a lot of people meeting in there, kind of seemed suspicious but you blew it off. Looking around you saw Bucky, your boyfriend, he was patting the seat next to him for you to sit there, and happily you took his offer. 

“Alright, thank you everyone for being here. I’m handing out missions for the week, but just in the most informal way ever.” Steve laughed a little when he finished. 

Bucky wrapped his metal arm around your waist, pulling you closer to him. You smiled at his action, happily nuzzling your head into his chest before focusing back on what Steve was trying to say to everyone. 

Steve walked around the room handing everyone a folder of papers, probably the mission that someone is going on. However, he isn’t handing them out to everyone. So far he has handed a file to Pietro, Clint, and he was about to hand one to me. Once he handed one to you, he continued to keep walking so that he could hand one to Nat, before standing back at the front of the group.

As Steve started talking about some of the individual missions, you could tell there was something up with Bucky. His whole body seemed to tense up all at once when Steve handed you a file and not him, and you didn’t really know what it meant when he tensed up the way he did. Probably just frustrated with the fact that he didn’t get a mission. 

“Okay, if you received a file from me then you are one of the people that are going on a mission this week.” Once Steve said that it prompted you to open the file, assuming it included details about your mission. The person behind you shifted and tightened his grip around your waist, then also started to read what was inside the file.

The meeting went on as they typically did, Steve sat there talking about each individual mission, then went on to talk about a whole team one that was coming up. When he dismissed all of us, everyone left except for you, Bucky, and Steve. 

“She’s not going on that mission.” Bucky said sternly towards Steve. You whipped your head around to face him, your expression was full of anger.

“Excuse me?” Steve spoke, for once looking away from a file he had been looking at.

“She’s not going.” Your boyfriend repeated.

“Why the hell not?” You practically yelled at him.

This has happened before where Bucky didn’t want you to go on a mission, but that time was when he was still battling his demons and didn’t think he could make it a week without you. This time though, he isn’t battling them as badly anymore. So, the fact that he doesn’t want you to go on this mission is very demeaning to you.

“Because I said you are not going.” He yelled back at you.

“Well too bad Buck, she’s going whether you like it or not!” 

“You of all people should understand the reason as to why I don’t want her to go-” Before you could hear his reasoning you ran out of the room running towards your room on the verge of tears. Bucky’s body was no longer tense, and he dropped himself into the couch before speaking again. “I just want to keep her safe.” He said sadly to Steve. 

Steve walked towards his pal, and made an attempt to get him to understand that it wasn’t really his choice on what missions you did and didn’t do. Bucky felt awful once they finished talking it through, Steve explained how you might be feeling and it crushed Bucky’s heart that he probably made you feel that way. “I didn’t mean for it to come off as I didn’t think she could do it… I just wanted to protect her, and it came out the wrong way.”

“The very wrong way.” Steve clarified, causing Bucky to look down at the ground in shame. “The only thing you can do now, is go and make it better.” Bucky looked towards his friend, and almost immediately ran towards your room after. 

He knew that what he said was wrong, but after he looked through the mission files he started to get scared of what the outcome might be if you got hurt. When he reached the hallway that your room and his was on he started walking at a normal pace. Bucky made a pit stop in his room before heading towards yours, grabbing some snacks he keeps for you and one of his hoodies, in hopes that it might help you to forgive him.

Softly he knocked his human hand against the door, hoping to get a response without needing to say anything first. Of course that didn’t turn out the way he had hoped for, so he knocked again this time saying who was there. “Y/n. It’s me, Bucky. Can we please talk?” The words came out as softly as he could, while still being loud enough for you to hear.

Not a word was spoken, but within a few seconds the door opened slightly, and Bucky took it as a queue that he could enter. When he did the room was dark and quiet, and for one moment he almost didn’t think you were inside of it. Until he saw a small figure laying under the covers on the bed, he assumed you just asked Friday to open the door for you, hence how you were still laying in bed.

Bucky didn’t know what to say at first, so instead he put the things he brought at the end of the bed, then layed down behind you wrapping an arm around your torso. When you didn’t try to shake him off, he smiled taking the hint that this was okay. 

“I’m sorry for what I said.” He whispered just enough so you could hear it. “I wasn’t thinking about how what I was saying could have hurt you, I was only thinking about what might happen if you got hurt and that scared me. It was never my intent to make you possibly think that you couldn’t do it.” he said, sounding somewhat defeated.

You sighed and rolled over so that way you were facing him. You went to say something in response to him, but then thought it better that you didn’t say anything instead. Instead, you thought it better than you snuggle in closer to him, resting your head against his head to make it so that he (hopefully) knew where you stood. He took your response and held you closer.

Some time had passed in each other's arms, and Bucky nearly had forgotten about the stuff he had brought for you. Abruptly he sat up, breaking you completely out of your near sleep state.

“What’s wrong?” you said in a tired voice. The super soldier didn’t answer you right away, instead he went to the end of the bed and fiddled around with some things before answering.

“I brought you some things in case you didn’t fully forgive me.” He said with the most soft and cute smile ever. You looked over to the stuff he was fiddling with, and there sat some of your favorite snacks and one of his hoodies. One of his that he somehow still has too. This was so sweet to you, it made your heart feel full. “So, you forgive me...right?” 

You quivered your lip, “Of course I forgive you Buck.” you said followed by you walking up to him and cupping his face in your hands. “Just don’t do it again.” Bucky put his hand up sticking his pinky finger out as his way to signify he promises. ‘He’s too much’  you thought before placing a kiss on his lips.
