Marvel characters x Y/N oneshots

1. Just an assistant or more? (James Bucky Barnes)

Why not start with one of my own favorites?

AU (Alternate universe): Y/N is Mr. Barnes' assistant. She's had a big crush on him for ages, but yeah, he's her boss, he'd never see her like that. She once heard him talking to a close friend of his, Steve Rogers, about a girl. Who?

~Y/N's POV~

I was about to walk into my boss' office to give him some papers to sign when I heard him talk. He was in there with his best friend, Steve.

"Steve, I can't. She works for me!" he said. I stopped in my tracks just as I was about to knock. Who is that 'she'? Is he in love with another person in the building?

"Oh, c'mon, Bucky, you can't just let a girl like her go because she works for you!" Steve responed.

"What if she rejects? We'd have to still see eachother every damn day! I can't risk embarrasing myself!"

"Seriously? You're scared? Y/N likes you, you idiot! You seriously don't see how she looks at you, do you?"

My eyes widened. What the fuck? They're talking about me?

"No... You must've seen it wrong", my boss interjected, but there was some doubt in his voice.

"Well believe what you want, I know I'm right! I have to go now, I promised Peggy to cook dinner tonight. I need to buy some stuff. I'll see you later!" Steve said. 

Fuck, he's coming. He opened the door and saw me. "Oh, hi, Y/N!"

"Hello, Mr. Rogers. I was just about to knock," I said. I decided not to tell I heard a big part of their conversation.

"Come in, Y/N", Mr. Barnes said, "Bye, Steve!"

Steve left and closed the door.

"Sharon from the front desk gave me these papers. I promised her I'd get them to you."

"Thanks, Y/N. Hey, uhm... You didn't happen to hear anything from my conversation with Steve, did you?"

"No, sir, I didn't", I lied.

"Good, good..." He leaned back in his chair. He took a deep beath before saying: "So, uhm, Y/N, are you free next week on saturday?"

"I think so... Why?"

"I'm going to pick you up at 6 o'clock in the afternoon to go somewhere. Where is a surprise."

"Are you... Are you asking me on a date?" I don't know how I managed to keep a calm look, but I was almost squealing in the inside.

"Yes, I am. Are you accepting?"

I nodded calmly. "Of course, sir."

He smiled. "Great. Be ready."

"I will."

···· Time skip 'till the date ····

I stood on my porch in a green dress with golden accents. I decided not to wear heels, since I didn't know where we were going and it might've just been a walk, instead I wore some black flats. My hair was in a simple ponytail. At exactly 3 o'clock he arrived in his black sports car. He was wearing a suit.

"Hello, Y/N. You look very pretty", he said as he walked over.

"Thanks, Mr. Barnes. You look quite handsome too, I must say."

"Call me Bucky, we're not at work right now."

I smiled an nodded. He helped me in the car on the passenger side and then gotin the car himself.

I couldn't help my curiosity and asked "Where are we going?"

He chuckled. "You'll see, but I'm sure you'll like it."

After a while we finally arrived at our location. It was a simple picnic table with view over a beautiful beach.

"Wow... This is... awesome", I said.

Bucky smiled. "Told you you'd like it."

He helped me out of the car as a real gentleman. We sat down and he gave me a glass of champagne.

"I actually expected you to take me to a fancy restaurant or something, but this is way better", I said as I took a sip.

"You've already seen how much money I've got, so why show with it?"

"True, true..."

We both stared a bit at the sea in silence when Bucky asked: "Remember that say I asked you out?"

"Of course I do, why?"

"I was talking to Steve about you, back then. I said I wanted to ask you out, but I was scared. I'm still your boss and stuff. What if you turned me down? Steve helped me gather some courage."

I smiled. "I know. I might've eavesdropped before I walked in."

"You did? And you didn't say anything?"

"No, sorry, but it seemed like a private conversation and I felt rude."

"I understand, but why were you eavesdropping in the first place?"

"Well, I heard you talking about a 'she' and... well, I got a bit jealous... But then Steve mentioned 'she' was me and... yeah, I wanted to hear what you thought of me."

"Did you get your answer?"

"I think so..."

"So you figured I like you."

I nodded. "Yeah, I did..."

"And the fact that you were jealous indicated Steve was right, you do like me too."

"Who wouldn't? I mean, you're handsome as fuck, you're a gentleman, you're sweet to everyone, you're rich, yet you never brag about it, you─"

I got interrupted by him kissing me. I was surprised for a moment, but then kissed him back. When he pulled back he smiled.

"God, I was waiting for that", he said with a smile.

"Me too", I whispered and he kissed me again.

First one! I hope you liked it! I'll make some more in AUs, but also in the normal MCU.
