Love in the Dark

And that is exactly what Brooke Ryan is

No smut in this chapter. But there is major jealous 😏

I recommend listening to "Don't blame" by Taylor Swift.

Steve's Pov

I'm going to kick bucky's ass for going into Brooke's room while she was practically half naked. No ONE gets close to what's mine, not even my best friend.

And that is exactly what Brooke Ryan is

MINE

I'm not hers, but I don't need to be. I'm nobody's.

She was mine from that first night i touched her. Granted, I wasn't looking for her that night, it just happened, hell i never even really talked to her before only when i had too, clint brought her in 4 years ago, tony told me she was parentless and she was going to live in the compound so i did't seem to find a reason to talk to her, if she wasn't going to go on missions with us.

But when i had her in my arms, i couldn't resist. I figured I could have her only for one night. But her honey lips and the way she sang my name like a beautiful melody had me going into her room every night since. The sex is immpecable, so i said to myself, "That's what would only be, sex, no strings attached." But somehow, after a year of just strickly that, she sucked me into a relationship. I swore to myself that i wouldn't be in a relationship again after sharon.

But i only wanted brooke in bed, no one else, so i agreed to this whole relationship, i could keep taking her to bed, and she would get what she wanted a "relationship." But that doesn't mean she'll get emotion or affection from me, and i made sure she knew that. Im just not 40's steve anymore. I refuse to be him again. Everything changed after her.

Fuck i can't even say her name

After i left brooke's room, i go to my room to make sure i looked freshen up, before breakfast. I walked in to see bucky sitting on the edge of my bed, he glance at me and puts his hands up for surrender.

Jerk

"I thought you would be downstairs already with the others." I tell him annoyed as i walk over to my bathroom, grabbing a brush going over my hair a little bit.

"I wanted to talk to you before we head downstairs for breakfast." Bucky looks up to see me, as i lean against the door frame.

"Okay so then talk, pal" I already know what he's going to say.

"I thought you said you weren't doing relationships anymore after sharon and then what you said after trying to go ba- but i don't even let him finish that sentence.

"Don't" I warn him.

"Look steve, i just worry about you after what happened- last time, you were destroyed and i hated seeing seeing you like that, i felt so helpless, i couldn't help my best friend and you drowned yourself to mission after mission, we rarely saw you and then just one random night you decided to sleep with brooke, who you never held a conversation with longer than a quick greeting, telling me it was only for one night than you say it's just sex and now a year later she's saying she's your girlfriend? what's going on pal? talk to me. Are you serious about her?"

Fuck

I sigh as i go take a seat in my desk chair, sitting across from bucky.

"You don't have to worry about me i'm fine, i only want brooke no one else, she's the only one i want to have sex with but she wanted the tittle, so i gave it to her but she knows what it is, we both get what we want." I assure bucky.

"A little messed up, don't you think? you know she's going to want more, especially the i love you. What did you tell her about that?" He tells me.

"No, i don't think it is. She knows she may never hear those words from me, and she also knows she won't be getting any affection as well." I tell him as i cross my arms.
