Bucky Barnes/Steve Rogers imagines

Promises- Bucky

Y/N's PoV
Steve was gone, he passed in his sleep earlier in the week. Surprising that he even was able to stick around for the long. Bucky and I were a mess. We knew he would be gone soon after he took all the stones back but I don't think we were ready for it. We stood above his grave, I was the only one silently crying. "I'm sorry Y/N" Bucky pulls me into a hug.

"Thank you. I know we've talked about how I feel but what about how you are, are you ok?"

"Well I still have you so, I'm ok."

"I just didn't think he'd be leaving us right after we won and then when he was still around, just much older, I realized he was ready to go but wanted a chance to tell us his story." I take a deep breath as Bucky takes my hand and we walk to the car.

"He's lived more than both of us, we should be proud of Rogers."

"Yeah, you're right." I look behind the car once more as we drive off before looking forward and smiling.

Bucky's Flashback

I stand in front of Steve, trying to process what he just said when he begins to speak again. "Buck, I know this is a lot to take in but I need you to do something for me."

"Anything pal."

"I know you're in love with her and I know she is in love with both of us, but you more. Start a life with her. She may be sad at first, so give it a little time but, if you don't marry her at some point or have children at some point I will come and haunt you when I'm dead." Steve laughs, causing me to laugh.

"You got it Captain."

End of flashback

Later that night Bucky and I sit on his couch watching random shows on tv. "Hey Buck?"

"Yeah?"

"Did Steve make you promise him something?"

"Ummm I don't know, maybe... why?" Bucky stumbles, pretty much telling me yes.

"Because, he made me promise him something."

"Oh yeah, and what was that?"

Y/n's Flashback

"Y/N, after I'm gone, and not a young old guy anymore, I need you to promise me something."

"Of course."

"You're not just gonna slum around and be sad ok? I want you to just go ask Buck out, hell just kiss him. I know you love him and he loves you, so go have a life. Both of you need to stop being introverted and silent. Yes, I know, it'll take some time. Especially after I pass, cause who knows how long I'll be around, but you can do it. Please, just promise me that."

"I promise, Steve." He pulls me into a hug.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

End of Flashback

"Um well, he wanted me to.... to do this." I lean over and pull Bucky into a kiss. His hand touches the side of my face right away as he reciprocates the kiss. When we pull away Bucky is chuckling. "What?"

"Really? He made me promise that you and I will get married and have kids or he will haunt me as a ghost."

"I mean, I'm ok with that too."
