Bucky's Wedding

The day had finally arrived. Bucky Barnes, the once fearsome Winter Soldier, was getting married. The venue, an expansive countryside estate, was buzzing with activity. Flowers adorned every surface, and the warm sunlight streamed through the grand windows, casting a golden glow on everything it touched.

In one of the luxurious rooms upstairs, Bucky was getting ready with his groomsmen. Steve Rogers, his best friend, stood by his side, adjusting his bow tie.

"You nervous, Buck?" Steve asked, a teasing grin playing on his lips.

Bucky looked at him through the mirror, his blue eyes twinkling with excitement. "A little, but in a good way. I can’t believe this is actually happening."

Steve clapped him on the shoulder. "You deserve this, buddy. She's an amazing woman."

Tony Stark, sitting in a chair while fiddling with his Iron Man cufflinks, glanced up and smirked. "I still can't believe someone agreed to marry you, Barnes. She must have the patience of a saint."

Bucky shot Tony a mock glare. "Thanks, Stark. Always good to have your support."

Thor, adjusting his own tie—which looked comically small on his large frame—laughed heartily. "Indeed, this is a joyous occasion! To think that such a fierce warrior has found love. I look forward to the feast!"

Clint Barton, lounging casually on the bed, chimed in, "Thor, it's a wedding, not a Viking raid. Try not to eat everything in sight."

Bruce Banner, more subdued but smiling warmly, added, "Let's just hope the reception stays peaceful. No smashing, okay?"

"Bruce, your alter ego is on vacation today, right?" Tony quipped.

Bruce chuckled. "He's RSVP'd 'no' to the wedding, don't worry."

As the banter continued, Bucky felt his earlier nerves ebb away. These men had seen him at his worst, and now they were here to witness one of his best moments. He took a deep breath, smoothing down the front of his suit.

"You guys ready to do this?" he asked.

Steve nodded. "Let's go get you married."

Downstairs, you were getting ready with your bridesmaids, feeling a mix of excitement and nervous anticipation. The ceremony was about to begin, and you couldn't wait to see Bucky. You had chosen a beautiful, flowing gown that made you feel like a queen, and your friends assured you that you looked stunning.

The music started, and one by one, the bridal party made their way down the aisle. The guests turned to watch, their faces lit with smiles. Finally, it was your turn. You took a deep breath, stepped forward, and saw Bucky standing at the altar, looking more handsome than ever. His eyes met yours, and all your nerves melted away.

As you walked down the aisle, you saw Steve standing proudly beside Bucky, and the rest of the groomsmen lined up, each with their own expressions of happiness and amusement. Thor winked at you, Tony gave you a thumbs-up, Clint pretended to wipe a tear, and Bruce smiled gently.

When you reached the altar, Bucky took your hand, his grip steady and reassuring. The ceremony was beautiful, filled with heartfelt vows and loving gazes. When the officiant finally pronounced you husband and wife, you and Bucky shared a kiss that felt like the start of a new chapter in your lives.

At the reception, the atmosphere was lively and filled with laughter. Tony, true to form, made a grand speech, complete with light-hearted jabs and genuine compliments.

"To the happy couple," Tony said, raising his glass. "May your days be as bright as Bucky’s metal arm and your nights as peaceful as Bruce after yoga. Cheers!"

The guests erupted in laughter and applause. Steve’s speech was next, and he spoke with the sincerity and warmth that only a best friend could.

"Bucky, you’ve been through so much, and you’ve come out stronger for it. And you," he said, turning to you, "you’ve made him happier than I’ve ever seen. To both of you, I wish a lifetime of happiness. Cheers."

Thor insisted on a traditional Asgardian toast, complete with a hearty swig from a large horn of mead, which everyone politely sampled, though some with grimaces. Clint took the microphone and said, "I’m just here for the food and to make sure Thor doesn’t eat it all."

The evening was filled with dancing, laughter, and stories shared among friends. As the night wore on, you and Bucky found a quiet moment to step outside, away from the revelry. The stars were bright above, and the cool night air was refreshing.

Bucky wrapped his arm around you, pulling you close. "I can’t believe we did it."

You smiled up at him. "Believe it, Mr. Barnes. We’re married."

He kissed you softly. "I love you."

"I love you too," you replied, resting your head on his shoulder.

Inside, the sounds of your friends’ laughter and celebration continued, a reminder that you were surrounded by people who loved and supported you both. As you stood there, embracing under the night sky, you knew this was just the beginning of a beautiful journey together.
