Gallium // Bucky Barnes // 18+

10. Oops.

If you're gonna let me down,
let me down slow
Tell me what I already, already know
I know that your mind's
already made up, But give me one more night now before we give up
If you're gonna let me down,
let me down slow
Just another minute, I ain't ready to go
Before we let the light in, baby, just hold me like you don't know
That you're gonna let me down,
let me down slow.

~Slow.

TO: Mention of panick attack and violence.

They say, mornings are supposed to bring a new day but what if the night before held the beginning of this one.

Cracking her eyes open, Krystal woke up in a surrounding she had only been once before. She blinked her eyes a few times before turning to face the other side. She gasped, sitting up while holding her sheets covering her bare body.

"Good morning, to you too." Bucky said smirking and scrolling on his phone, sitting by the bed post wearing a formal shirt and pants.

"Why are you here?" She asked in a raspy voice, rubbing her eyes.

"This is my house." Bucky said looking at her and keeping his phone on the night stand. Krystal looked under the sheets to see her naked body and that's when it all came back to her.

"Oh, god." Krystal groaned rubbing her face with a palm, tucking her elbow on her knee, covering her face. "Last night did not happen." Krystal said, raising a finger at Bucky.

"Well, it did happen." Bucky said looking at her with a slight smile and standing up from the bed, walking to the other side, Krystal got off the bed as well, wrapping the sheet around her body.

"No, it was mistake. We were both exhausted and we didn't do everything, right? So it doesn't count." She said standing at a place while Bucky came upto her and stood in front of her.

"Sure didn't sound like it last night." Bucky said in a husky voice, looking down at her.

"No. No. No. No." Krystal said rapidly, looking up at him and stepping closer but Bucky didn't budge.

"You're too tied up." He said in a deep voice, cutting her off. Bucky licked his lips looking down at a irregularly breathing Krystal who was flickering her eyes between his lips and eyes.

"I can free you." He murmured gazing into her eyes and Krystal took an hurdled breath, closing her eyes. Visions of last night flashing into her brain. "You're thinking about it." He said and she opened her eyes, taking a step back.

"No, I'm not." Krystal said turning to face the couch by the windows with her clothes.

"Trying to convience me or... Yourself." Bucky said crossing his arms over his chest. Krystal snapped her head at him and he just smirked lightly making Krystal groan and pick her clothes up.

"I'm leaving." She said walking past Bucky and into the restroom. Bucky smiled to himself and sat back on the bed, waiting for her.

Krystal was cursing herself inside the restroom while changing her clothes. On one hand she wanted to get out of there as fast as she could but on other she wanted to spend every second of the day with Bucky. But she kept denying herself. Krystal unlocked the door coming out in her clothes to find Bucky sitting there.

"I can do the left files at my apartment." She said wearing her heels while sitting on the couch.

"I completed the syncing and sent them out, too." Bucky said, looking at her, sitting at the edge of the bed.
