A Little Calm...

Starstruck

Seven Nation Army - PMJ

*Bucky's POV*

Sam
"So this is a date then?"

Bucky
"Well I mean no, we didn't actually say it was, but... maybe?"

Sam smiled at me slyly whilst turning round to lean on the bar.

Sam
"Well I promise you, you'll know when you see her."

I copied his motion whilst taking a big sigh, knowing that he's about to spew some of his famous 'wisdom'.

Bucky
"What do you mean?"

Sam's slightly excited by me asking, he does love it when he knows something that I don't.

Sam
"If she's made an effort, it's a date. If she hasn't, then it's not."

Bucky
"And how am I supposed to know if she's made an effort?"

Sam picked up his drink and started to move away from the bar.

Sam
"I don't think that'll be a problem cyborg..."

He gestures towards the door with his drink. I follow his eye-line to see her checking in her coat.

Reignite - Knox Brown, Gallant

When her eyes meet mine, I start to walk over. A smile grows across her face as I give her a quick once over, taking in every detail. Every step she takes is graceful, and especially impressive considering the last time I saw her in person, she needed a walker. Even the simple way she lifts the front of her dress as she walks up the stairs makes her look gorgeous.

*Y/n's POV*

You're half way up the stairs when you see his hand reach out. You look up to him and fix your stare to one another once again. Not looking away from each other's eyes for even a second, you walk up the rest of the steps with him leading you by the hand. When you get to the top, he looks you up and down again trying to splutter out a compliment. His eyes get stuck on your body.

Bucky
"Y/n... I - You look..."

Y/n
"Eyes front soldier. And you might wanna pick your jaw up off of the floor, wouldn't want someone to trip over..."

You can't believe you said that. It's far flirtier than anything you've even thought about saying to him before. Still giving him a cheeky smile, you walk over to the bar, leaving him standing there, watching you walk away. He'll follow eventually, but you grant him a second to process.

*Bucky's POV*

Okay, I've seen the sarcastic, broken and scared versions of Y/n; but I've never seen this confident, elegant, radiant side. Honestly... I can't take my eyes off of her.
I'm not even distracted when Sam creeps up on me and squeezes my shoulder whilst whispering in my ear.

Sam
"Definitely a date."
