Melatonin- Bucky X OC Love Story

Chapter 28

Violet practically skipped down to the dining room, taking her regular place between Bucky and Steve. He had woken up early to train, letting Violet get a little extra rest since the two were up late the previous night watching movies. She had insisted his life was not fulfilled without seeing The Shawshank Redemption. He couldn't deny her request, he wasn't sure he could ever tell her no.

"Good morning, doll." Bucky said happily, she leaned in and gave a quick kiss before smiling at the rest of the table.

"Morning!" She said happily.

"Someone's in a good mood today, cyborg rock your world?" Sam asked, Wanda elbowed him roughly in the side. She refused to tell Violet that she could read her thoughts, that she had gotten into her head and known the two hadn't been intimate yet. It wasn't her business to know anyway. But she wished she could cling to Violet and cry with her after feeling what Violet feels every day. The fear still lurking in her mind from Taylor and John somehow burned into her brain. She could feel how physically sick and terrified Violet was whenever a man she didn't recognize was too close, or whenever a man raised their voice around her. That fear was burned so deep in Violet's mind that it seeped into her bones, it almost crippled Wanda when she got in her head.

"I have a tattoo appointment today, actually." Violet admitted.

"Don't those hurt?" Steve asked, Violet laughed and shrugged. "Why does everyone think that? You literally get shot at for a living and you're afraid of a tiny needle?" She teased.

"I'm not afraid of needles." Steve protested.

"Are you coming with me today?" Violet asked, turning her head to Bucky.

"I wish I knew about it sooner, I have work to get done today, doll. I'm sorry." Bucky said, Violet leaned in and kissed him again with a big smile on her face. "It's okay, honey. I was just offering." She promised.

"Do you want the tesla?" Bucky offered. He took her hand into his, bringing her hand to his lips before gently kissing her knuckles.

"I can take you." Steve interrupted.

"I can't ask you to do that, it's probably an all day thing." Violet said, turning to face Steve as she ate her peanut butter waffles and sliced bananas.

"I have nothing else to do today, I insist." Steve vowed, he knew he'd never get to have her, but it didn't mean he didn't want to spend time with her.

"Okay, then thanks!" Violet said happily. Bucky reached behind Violet and handed Steve his card. "Don't let her pay." He said, Steve took the card and nodded.

"No, I can pay. It's going to be expensive." Violet protested.

"Then I definitely don't want you to pay, but I do want to see it when it's done." Bucky said with a smile. He rested his hand on her back after Steve took the card, pulling her lightly to lean against him.

"Deal, I'll even text you a picture once he puts the stencil on." Violet promised. But then she remembered her appointment today was for a piece on her thigh, so she'd be in shorts pulled up to her panties all day. But she figured she'd be fine, Steve helped clean her leg up after Taylor bruised her three months ago.

"Any updates from Anthony?" Tony interrupted, focusing his attention away from his breakfast and onto Violet.

"Yes, he left me a voicemail two days ago, he's still getting used to the feeling of the arm but he's doing well." Violet bragged.

"So he can feel?" Nat asked, Violet nodded happily. "He sure can, but I showed him how to turn it off in case he ever needs to or wants to." Violet said.
