Dark Arrow

Chapter Twenty Five

Steve's lips crashed against mine as we made it to my room. He pushed me up against the wall before pulling my top up and over my head. He groaned as he saw my black lace bra. I pulled his lips back to mine, allowing him to sweep his tongue into my mouth.

I pushed him off me, pushing him up against the wall opposite wall. The passion between us seeping out of us into the air around us.

"Hey doll have you..." Bucky's voice travelled through the air, neither of us noticing.

Steve pulled my head to the side, allowing him the perfect amount of access to my neck.

"Well looks like I owe Nat twenty bucks." Bucky boasted as he leant against the wall.

My head snapped up at that, both me and Steve not exactly sure what to say.
"Buck?!" I screeched as Steve pulled my half naked body behind his. "You could try knocking!" I sneered at him over Steve's shoulder. I couldn't overly blame him for walking in unannounced, he'd never had to knock before. That did nothing to ease my annoyance at him finding out about us like this.

"Yeah, can you put a shirt on? I don't need to see that." He smirked, looking between me and Steve.

Steve was in shock, he didn't know what I wanted from him in that moment. He tried to find the right words to say, to get Bucky to leave. His mouth opened and closed before he looked over his shoulder at me, shrugging.

I rolled my eyes before turning to Bucky.
"Can you get out now?" I wanted to finish what we'd started. For the first time ever, I was less than pleased with my friendship with Bucky.

"Nope." Bucky smiled, walking over to lay on my bed. "You two have some explaining to do."

With a sigh, I resigned myself to the fact that he wasn't going anywhere. I stepped out from behind Steve, it wasn't anything Bucky hadn't seen before anyway. I found my top on the floor, pulling it back on with a huff.

I sat on the bed cross legged as Steve settled into the chair in the corner. Bucky looked between us expectantly, waiting for one of us to break the silence.

"Well," Steve started, figuring the sooner Bucky knew the truth then the sooner he would leave. "We're not trying to kill each other. That's a good thing right?"

"I'm not complaining about that." Bucky chuckled. "My stress levels couldn't take much more."

I kicked him playfully, scowling at him.
"We weren't that bad!" I protested, crossing my arms in a huff.

"Yeah, Rain we were."

I snapped my head round to look at Steve. He seemed to be happy that Bucky knew, he'd never looked more relaxed.
"You are supposed to be on my side." I playfully stuck my tongue out at him, mentally noting to pay him back for that later.

Bucky watched on as we bickered back and forth. He was beyond happy that we'd finally seen past our stubbornness to realise what he had months ago. That we were perfect for each other. Polar opposite, but bringing out the best in each other.

"I am on your side sweetheart, I always am." Steve winked causing butterflies to appear in my stomach. I'd never tire of the flirty side of him. It was something that I loved to see, the way his blue green eyes would light up as he looked at me. I never wanted that to stop.

"Well this is enough to make me want to vomit." Bucky teased.

I scoffed at him. "You and Nat are worse!"

Even he knew that he couldn't deny that. He adored Nat, and he made sure everyone knew it. She accepted every part of him, the good and the bad and loved him regardless. Not to mention she was the most beautiful woman he'd ever laid eyes on. Bucky shook his head to bring himself back to the situation in front of him.
"So...how long has this been a thing?"
