Contrapasso ♡-- Steve Rogers Dark Romance (Reader x Steve)

Possessive

--- Your Point of View ---

Bucky was looking at you with an alarming intensity that almost made you want to take a few steps back, but you were not going to run scared – even though every part of your body was telling you to run, your fight or flight was so activated at the moment it was maddening.

You looked up eyes narrowed at Steve who gave you a look that showed his anguish, it was under the rage that was so clearly evident, it broke you heart to see it.

No matter how you felt about Bucky, you felt like this was a betrayal against Steve, on a deeper level that you could ever explain to anyone – it was something that was unique between you and Steve.

"What is going on?" Bucky didn't seem to even be registering Steve, his eyes and focus was squarely on you, and you felt your heart rate pick up alarmingly fast at his pleading expression.

This was not how you wanted him to find out, this was too rough and too hard – it would have been better if you could privately tell this to Bucky. Yet you knew that this was killing Steve, the part of his soul that was still intact, but he was crossing a line here.

You did the only logical and self-preserving thing that you could think of, you stepped forward and focused on Bucky, almost willing yourself to forget about Steve.

"I'm pregnant Bucky."

Bucky looked at Steve but you were not close enough to grab his chin and make him look at you.

"It's yours."

You forced yourself to look from Bucky's blue eyes to Steves.

"Please leave."

His eyes narrowed, but you were not going to be intimidated by him, you were pissed beyond reason and words.

"This doesn't concern you Steve." You said it like there was a knife that you were stabbing right into his chest, and you knew that it had struck, because he looked like he was about to cry, and before you knew it he was gone.

You could feel the air almost clear when he was gone, it was like his anger had filled the room with something sinister.

You stepped back from Bucky, not able to hold back your tears.

"Hey...woah."

Instantly Bucky seemed to snap out of whatever stupor he had been locked in this whole time, and he wrapped his arms around you and pulled you into his arms.

You wrapped your arms around his neck and felt yourself start to shake.

"Is it true?" His voice was calm.

"Yes...Shuri confirmed it."

"And it's mine?"

"Yes, you are the only one that I have been with – the, the times seem to match up."

He pressed his forehead against yours, closing his eyes you saw him take a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down clearly.

"Are you okay?" He finally asked.

You let out a sob, that was Bucky for you, always thinking of others, but you really thought about it for a moment.

"I don't know."

He pulled you into a hug, you were shorter than him and he pressed his chin against the top of your hair and kissed it.

"We are going to be okay... I can't imagine how you are doing, but I'm here, and I am not going anywhere, understand?"

You said nothing, he pulled back and put his hands on either side of your face making you look up at him.

"Understand."

"Yes." You meekly added, he stepped back and looked down at your stomach, then slowly and intimately he reached forward and pressed his hand against your lower stomach.

"Bucky...Steve..." You started to say but he gave you one hell of a sharp look.

"No...we are not talking about him right now...your pregnant...with our baby." There was a wonderment in his voice and before you knew it his bionic arm was around your waist and pulled you into a kiss that was more possessive than romantic.
