-Bucky's POV-
I shoot up into a sitting position and start to hyperventilate. Another nightmare. I grab the cup from my nightstand and chuck it at the wall, ultimately shattering it into pieces. Cursing myself, I get up from my bed and move to my barely furnished living room and turn on the TV. The reporter was still talking about what Sam said to the senator after taking back Steve's shield. The more we work together the less annoying he gets, but I would never tell him that. That's when the door to my apartment opens and I go wide eyed as I see her.
"Buck? How are you? I'm here to cook for you and possibly ask if I can stay the night." My neighbor, my friend, and girlfriend. I gave her a key in case she ever needed to come over to get away from her sister, whom lives with her rent free at the moment. She doesn't complain but anyone can tell that it annoys her. It doesn't help that we sleep seperately but with my nightmares I don't want to risk it and she doesn't push me.
"I'm fine Doll. Are you ok?" I give her a concerned look and she sighs rubbing her temples. "That bad huh?" I chuckle. My nightmares melt away as she closes the door and I look at her. Ok she may not complain to anyone but me.
"The nerve of my sister baffles me. She says things like 'shocking how just a teacher has an avenger boyfriend' or 'you really should think about the keto diet since you are gaining weight again, don't wanna lose that boyfriend' just... arrrrgh, how can one person be so shallow?! At least I have a real job and am not mooching off of my sister! At least I can pay bills! Not all of us can be pretty struggling models after all!" I chuckle at her as she got animated with her rant. After a bit she calmed down setting her bag down. "Are you really sure you're ok? I heard you screaming."
"I was upset but I'm fine now Doll. Especially since you're here." She blushed a little and began to look around as I stood up.
"Buck you gotta stop watching the TV with the lights off!" She immediately turns the lights on as I walk over to her. "It's so bad for your..."
"Eyes, I know Doll. You say it every night that you come in here." I pull her into my arms and all seemed right with the world. As I cup her cheek she leans into my hand. I just now noticed that I used my metal hand to touch her but the second I try to pull away, she keeps it in place with her free hand.
"Then you need to start listening to me. I'm very smart ya know." I watch as she kisses the inside of my metal palm before moving to the kitchen. "Since I know you haven't eaten yet and that you don't grocery shop, I brought over some stuff to make a good chicken dinner. So sit."
"Y/N you don't need to take care of me like this." I smile, moving over and placing a kiss on her cheek.
"But I WANT to take care of you Bucky. Please let me?" There they are, her big doe eyes that make me melt everytime.
"Alright, but I'm cleaning up as you go because you are a very messy cook." She smiles. It amazes me how happy she gets over something so small. She picks up her bag to take it to my room. As she walks in I hear her gasp and she comes running to me. She wraps her arms around me and holds me tight. The glass I broke. "Y/N I...."
"You don't have to explain... I'm here for you. If you want to talk to me you can. If you don't then you don't have to." Wrapping my arms around her waist, I hold her closer to me.
"Thank you Doll. I'll tell you someday about them." I kiss the top of her head and take in her scent. She looks up at me with tears in her eyes and a sweet smile on her face. I wiped her tears. Why was she crying?
"S-Sorry I just... I..." I kissed her forehead. It was like she was crying for me so I didn't have to. "I l-love you..." She what?
"You what?"
