"Nat, I need to talk to you"
"Yeah babe?"
Hestitant, Bucky looks from the ground to Nat.
"I want you to be honest with me. I'm not accusing you of anything, I just want to clear this situation"
Nat raises her eyebrow.
"Go on"
"Do you love me?"
"What? Of course I love you, why else would I be going out with you"
"But do you still love me?"
"Buck what's going on?"
"Nothing" Bucky sighs "I just don't want any secrets between us"
"Okayy" she says then takes his hand "Bucky I do love you. And if anything you're one of the best guys I've ever dated. Unlike the rest, you actually stayed for me"
"Well loyalty's important in a relationship, and trust"
"You don't trust me?"
"No. I don't trust them" even though he didn't refer to anyone specific, he knew who he meant.
Intertwining her hand in his normal one, she squeezes it.
"You know" he continues "you used to hold my metal arm before"
Again looking confused, she swaps over to his metal hand "Okay, there"
Looking down at it, Bucky pulls away.
"What's wrong with you Buck? I know what this is about, don't think I don't. And if anything you probably still like Y/N, that's why you're acting up. I knew I should've seen this first"
"WHAT?! Nat, Y/N's my friend, my ex, but she's my friend. I don't like her in that way anymore"
"How do I know that, all this tak on loyalty, she probably likes you"
"She likes Steve"
"Yeah like you like me"
"Okay Nat what the fuck. This isn't what I was talking about-"
"But Bruce is? Isn't he my friend, and my ex? Double standards here for sure" Nat gets up and walks away, leaving Bucky alone in the darkness.
