Fly Me To The Moon - Frank Sinatra

You and Bucky are walking back to your apartment from going to the movies. Not the modern cinema though. Close to your apartment there's a vintage movie theatre that still shows the old classics. Obviously Bucky loves it and you've always liked older style things. Pretty consistent given your choice in men I suppose.

Bucky
"So Sam called..."

You slow down a little and face him slightly as you continue walking.

Y/n
"Uh oh, why do I get the feeling he wasn't just checking in?"

Bucky
"He thinks the flag-smashers were just the start of a bigger system set up by some guy named 'the power broker'. He wants my help to check it out."

You walk in front of him and stop outside your apartment building.

Y/n
"Okay... I'm guessing that means you're leaving?"

You instinctively start to unlock the door and walk in. Without either of you noticing, Bucky follows as if it were second nature.

Bucky
"Well Sam thinks they're operating out of the Washington so yes, but should only be for a few days."

Still deep in conversation, you both amble up the stairs and into your apartment after unlocking the door.

Y/n
"Oh god! A few days?! How will I ever cope??"

You chuckle slightly at your own sarcasm as you both hang up your jackets on the coat rack.

Bucky
"Okay fine, next time I won't tell you and I'll just disappear without a word, how's that?"

You both laugh as he sits on a kitchen stool and you lean on the counter. Then you finally look around and realise that you've both managed to make yourselves at home.

The Night We Met - Lord Huron

Y/n
"Coffee?"

Bucky
"Yeah, sure, thanks."

You turn around and start the machine with a smile. It's not too late yet but this is the latest you've been together so there's a slight weirdness in the air.
You spend the next hour or so just chatting and making each other laugh. Eventually, you decide to open a bottle of wine and you introduce him to 'never have I ever'. It was made slightly unfair by the extremely different life experiences and the fact that alcohol has no effect on him.

Bucky
"I should get going. Sam wants to meet up and go over details tomorrow morning so."

You're slightly disappointed that the night can't last forever.

Y/n
"Sure, yeah. I don't wanna be the reason you're late to meet Captain America."

You smile at each other softly as he grabs his jacket and you clear away the glasses and mugs. You meet him at the door and lean on it as he stands waiting to say goodnight.

I Think I'm In Love - Kat Dahlia

Y/n
"Thank you for the movie, I had a really nice time."

Bucky
"Thanks for the coffee. And wine. And whatever the hell that game was."

You both give a slight chuckle before looking into one another's eyes.

Bucky
"Goodnight."

Y/n
"Goodnight."

You both lean in for a hug.

Bucky
"Goodnight."

Y/n
"Goodnight."

As you pull away from the hug, you catch each other with an intimate kiss. You both take very short breaks to speak.

Bucky
"Goodnight."

Y/n
"Goodnight."

With a final, slight push on his shoulders, you break the kiss and smile cheekily at him.

Y/n
"Goodnight Barnes."

Walking out the door backwards, he grins at you slightly.

Bucky
"Goodnight y/l/n."

Still smirking at him as he walks round the corner, you close the door slowly. Once it's all the way closed, you lean your back against it whilst just standing with the butterflies in your stomach. After less than 3 seconds you hear and feel a knock on the door. You know it's him.

Y/n
"You forget your keys or some-"

Before you can even open the door all the way, he bursts in and plants an urgent and passionate kiss on you.
His hands cup both sides of your face and you sink into it. You hold his sides and tug at his shirt to pull him back into the apartment. Freeing one hand, you slam the door behind him and walk in time with one another to the couch. You fall backwards and he lowers himself to be hovering over you a few inches above.

Bucky
"We don't have to do anyth-"

Y/n
"No, I want to."

He lowers himself the last little bit towards you. You both softly grin at each other as you melt back into the kiss. In all honesty, you might want to stop in a minute, but that's okay. Right now, all you want is him.
