Sebastian Stan Imagines

Bucky Barnes - Don't You Remember

A/n: Based on the song "Don't You Remember" by Adele.

Summary:

Steve came home with someone you once knew, Bucky Barnes. But, Bucky did not remember you. And who were you? You used to be his doll. Used to be his everything. Until the day he disappeared. Went out to war, and was reported missing. So, you sat down at the Main Room piano, with the song you "wrote", called Don't You Remember. Will he remember?

Regular is present time, italic is flashbacks and other people's POV.

Sitting down at the Avengers Compound, it was a calm, afternoon. Steve, Natasha, and Sam, were coming back from a mission today, and you had finished all your work, did all the cleaning, and prepared the guest room because Steve had told you he was going to bring home someone you both knew.

"I wonder who," You thought, as you stared at the Avengers Compound window. You saw the Quinjet land, and you immediately ran down the stairs, bursting open the front door and ran outside to see Steve walk out with a man behind him.

The man had a metal arm, shoulder length hair, and he looked awfully fimiliar.

"Y/n!" Steve said, as you ran to him, giving him a hug.

"You're okay!" You said.

"Of course," Steve said. "I'm Captain America."

"Har har, very funny," You said, playfully punching his shoulder. 

You looked over to see Natasha, and she held out her arms.

You also gave her a hug.

"You okay?" You asked. She smiled.

"Yeah," She said. "It was a crazy mission, but we got 'em. Turn around."

You turned around, and your jaw almost dropped.

It was your one and only, Bucky Barnes. That's why he was so familiar. He was yoru Sarg. He was your world.

"Bucky?" You whispered. His head jolted towards you, and he stood behind Steve.

"Who is she?" He asked, and those three words shattered your heart. Steve could see it.

"Buck," Steve said. "That was your doll."

"I had a doll?" Bucky asked, very confused. 

You stumbled back, running into Natasha who grabbed you.

"You okay?" She asked.

"Uh-huh," You said. "We should go inside. Everything is ready."

"Y/n..."Steve said, but you motioned for everyone to come inside.

3 days have passed, and your heart was shattered. Your true love didn't remember you. How it hurts so much, you wrote it down on paper, onto notes, and finally, the piano.

When the Compound was empty, you sat down at the piano, pulling out you sheet music and starting.

"When will I see you again?" You sang. "You left with no goodbye, not a single word was said. No final kiss to seal any sins. I had no idea of the state we were in."

"Hey doll, this is my last day!" Bucky said, bursting into your bedroom, having you yelp.

"Jesus!" You said. "There's this new thing, called knocking!"

Bucky chuckled, wrapping his arms around you and kissing your forehead.

"I'm gonna miss you," He whispered. "So much."

"You won't forget me, right?" You asked. He smiled.

"I will never, princess," He said, grazing his lips over yours. "I couldn't if I tried."

"I know I have a fickle heart and a bitterness," You continued singing. "And a wandering eye, and a heaviness in my head. But don't you remember? Don't you remember? The reason you loved me before. Baby, please remember me once more."

Bucky sat in the new Compound. He was confused, scared, and wished he had someone to talk to. A few minutes in his thoughts, he heard the slight sound of a piano. And someone singing. Curiosity flooding through him, he made his way out of his bedroom door.

"When was the last time you thought of me? Or have you completely erased me from your memory? I often think about where I went wrong. The more I do, the less I know. But I know I have a fickle heart and a bitterness. And a wandering eye, and heaviness in my head. But don't you remember? Don't you remember? The reason you loved me before. Baby, please remember me once more."

"When was the last time you thought of me? Or have you completely erased me from your memory? I often think about where I went wrong. The more I do, the less I know. But I know I have a fickle heart and a bitterness. And a wandering eye, and heaviness in my head. But don't you remember? Don't you remember? The reason you loved me before. Baby, please remember me once more." Bucky heard someone sing. He peeked his head into the main room, where he saw (Y/n...? He thinks.), sitting at the piano and singing. It was a good song. Bucky has never head it before though.

Without a sound being made, Bucky sat down by the doorframe, watching her.

Man, she was beautiful. Whoever dated her, was a lucky guy.

"Gave you the space so you could breathe. I kept my distance so you would be free. And hope that you find the missing piece. To bring you back to me."

"I'll bring you back to me!" You said, you and Bucky waiting at the train station for him to go. 

"I bet you will," Bucky said. "I love you, doll. So much. You will never lose me, okay? I'll be back."

(Back to Present Italic.)

When Bucky heard those words, "To bring you back to me", it triggered something in his brain. Why did he recognize it?

Sudden;y, without warning, his mind plunged back into time, his memories of Y/n, Steve, 1940's, and everything coming back to him.

And he just realized his Y/n was just in front of him.

"Why don't you remember?" You sang, on the edge of tears. "Don't you remember? The reason you loved me before. Baby, please remember me once more. When will I see you again?"

"Y/N!" Bucky shouted, having you jump.

"HOLY SHT!" You yelled. "GIVE ME A WARNING-"

But before you could finish, Bucky had ran up to you, crashing his lips onto yours.

"I remember," He sobbed, into your lips. "I remember everything. You. Us. Everything we had."

You looked into his eyes.

"You remember?" You whispered. "How?"

"That song," He said. "When you sang "to bring you back to me", it triggered my mind. I remember!"

You smiled wide, tears running down your face. 

Bucky wrapped you in his arms, kissing your lips again.

"I'm so sorry I didn't remember," He said. "I should have. You were right there the whole time."

You didn't answer.

"I thought you forgot me completely," You said, after awhile. 

"Remember what I said?" Bucky asked, moving a strand of hair out of your face. "I couldn't forget, even if I tried. I love you, Y/n. You brought me back."
