Avengers react to Bucky Barnes

"You, " I said, grabbing his wrist as James left, "are eating. You, according to the scan F.R.I.D.A.Y. did, have not eaten in a week. Come on, you're gonna eat a healthy meal. Right now."

He rolled his eyes, which looked eerily similar to Tony's and nodded.

I gently dragged him to the kitchen + dining room and told him to sit down, before quickly heating some leftover pizza for him to eat.

I put the plate in front of him: "Eat. Now."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," he mumbled as he took the first slice and took a bite. I watched him closely, if he was related to Tony then he for sure as hell was going to try and either dup all this in the bin and say he's done or he's gonna try and run away.

***TIME SKIP***

I, along with all the other residents of the tower right now- watched as Natasha and he started to get ready to spar with each other. They both had knives, so it was fair- weapon-wise. 

Natasha started, lunging forward, trying to stab James in the thigh. James step-sided easily, stabbing her with his own knife, in her arm. But Natasha didn't seem to falter, jumping up, and securing herself on James' shoulders, trying to get a strangle-hold on him. James seemed to struggle for a second before throwing himself backwards, squishing her, until she got free with a swift, leg movement, she tried  to get a proper choke hold on him but he seemed to know just what she was about to do and would step-side making it impossible. That was until, Natasha made a swift movement, pinning him to the ground, pointing her knife to his throat.

"Yield, good-lookin'?" She asked.

"Maybe you should pay more attention, doll." He chuckled, and then only did I realize that he was using his metal arm to point a knife to her stomach. 

"My, my, you are good." you could barely hear her purr into his ear.

(This is not gonna turn into a WinterWidow fic. I just think, both Natasha and Bucky are the flirting type of people.)

"Okay, okay, no need to flirt. It's a tie." Tony said, being his over-dramatic self, covering his eyes with his hand. I hit the back of his head.

When both of them got out, I swear, I heard, "Could have done better, Natalia," from Bucky. But when I turned around, he seemed to be in a conversation with Steve.

***TIME SKIP***

I sat with the other Avengers, they were having a team-bonding night and Bucky- I'm calling him Bucky because Rhodey is also here and calling him Barnes seems mean- had been invited. Me, Tony and Rhodey were occupying a couch. Tony had his head in my lap, and the rest of his body on Rhodey. 

Natasha, Sam and Steve were occupying a couch. Bruce and Thor were sitting on a couch and Peter and Bucky were sitting on the floor- which was carpeted, thankfully.

We were watchin the Hunger Games, when Tony just switched it off, suddenly. He sat up, "C'mon, let's have some fun-"

Steve cut him off, "We are not going to drink, Tony."

You could hear, disappointed noises from Cint, Nat and Bucky.

Everyone other than Steve and Nat raised an eyebrow at Bucky.

"What?"

"You're Cap's friend and you drink?" Clint asked. 

"Being Steve's friend does not define me, idiots," 

"Oh," Tony said, before starting in a more cheerful voice, "Let's play Never Have I Ever."

Nat quickly explained to Bucky what you had to do.

"Fine," he huffed.

And then the game started, by Tony:

"Never have I ever... been skiing,"

Natasha, Clint, Bucky, me and Sam, lifted their hand. (I know normally you have to drink or something, but Peter's a minor and the team is just trying to get to know each other better.)

Natasha went next: "Never have I ever... learned how to play a piano," 

Clint, Steve, Bucky, Tony, Bruce and me lifted our hand.

I went next, "Uh, never have I ever...felt attracted to the same gender,"

Bucky, Steve, Natasha, Clint, Peter and Sam lifted their hands.

***TIME SKIP***

By the end of it, I knew a lot of things about a lot of people.
