Fifty Shades of Barnes

The Gala

The night of the Gala came. It was tonight. Our mission was tonight. This was it. As I lay there in the luxurious sheets and cushions of serenity.

I contemplated about what to do next, I mean could you blame me? I'm supposed to seduce my fucking ex who abused me mentally and physically. Then again I have to protect him, no, them. My friends. My family I can't let anyone get hurt because of something I didn't have the guts to do years ago.

"Not that I cared or anything, but you okay?" I turned my focus from the ceiling to see Bucky looking back at me as he leaned on the door frame. His built and very bare chest lightly glistened in the morning light, his dark grey sweatpants seemed to hang effortlessly around his waist. The v shape his abdominal muscles made as it continued down his waist only to be cut off by the hem of his pants. God, I wish I could see more. Wait huh?

"You good there Doll?" He said tilting his head away from the door frame as he crossed his arms. I snapped my eyes to meet his baby blue ones and nodded.

"Mhm yep, great, everything is fine. Just fine." I kept nodding my head while he raised an eyebrow and tilted his head down. "You sure doll?" I nodded back at him then looked away from him. His face softened after he saw me start to pick at the cuticle on my thumb. He then walked over to the bed and sat across from me, the crater he made in the memory foam mattress almost made me fall into his arms.

I continued to stay silent as I turned my focus to the sounds of French people taking, accordions playing on the streets, and water splashing from the grand fountains of the hotel, I continued to pick at my thumb cuticle.

"Y/n, you know you don't have to be the one to be the distraction tonight." I shook my head biting the inside of my cheek.

"No, because then you can't get to his weak spot any other way. I can do this." I looked into the oceans of his eyes that I always seemed to drown in. He parted his lips then closed them while he let a calm breath out of his nose.

"Ok well, you know Jules, Loki, and I will be there for backup, and also the reason I came in here was to wake you up so we can get breakfast." I nodded.

"How long've you been up?" I asked slowly getting myself out of bed. I swear to god it's always the hotel beds that just hit differently. Bucky did the same, "Not too long I woke up, went on a run so I could see the sunrise. Then I came back, took a shower, and read a book." We began to walk out of the room with me leading the way.

"Sounds like something you would do, lemme guess you finished your morning run with a protein shake." We walked into the kitchen and I opened the fridge to get something but Bucky closed it before I could even see what we had.

"Dude what the f-"

"One, watch your language, two no I did not drink a protein shake, what am I a jockey?"

"You act like one half the ti-"

"I wasn't done. And three I found a small cafe close to the Hotel so maybe we can pick up Loki and Jules and make our way there." He said leaning on the counter.

"Are you done?" He nodded," ok well I'm cool with that but you're paying."

"That's fair." I nodded. "Good, get it got it good." I walked to my room.

"EY where you think you're going?" He said which stopped me dead in my tracks, I turned around. "To my room to get changed." He inched slowly towards me as he looked me up and down.

"I never said you could leave, now." I started to back away from him as he got closer.

"You know I think what you did was suggest something in which I agreed." I backed into the wall of the hallway that was in front of my room. He stopped inches away from my body as he rested his hands on the wall further making his trap even more inescapable.
