Behind Closed Doors (Bucky Barnes)

~13~ Possessive

"Miss Stark, Mr. Barnes wants to let you know breakfast will be served soon."

Waking up to the blinding light and the voice of Friday Lani groaned and rolled on the other side of her bed trying to shield her eyes from the burning sunlight that shined from her window. She winced when the first wave of headache hit her making her wish she stayed at home the night before.

Slowly opening her eyes she glared at the window and rubbed her tired eyes. She sighed knowing that she had to get up or Bucky would come to get her himself, she sat up leaning her back against the headboard thinking about last night.

She groaned at the memory of their shared kiss and rubbed her temples trying to remember what else she did to embarrass herself. Did he say he wasn't dating Sharon or was her mind playing tricks on her?

She picked up her phone and saw Lena's text from last night.

'Get some sleep, babe. Call me in the morning. Love you!'

She got out of her warm cozy bed and headed to the bathroom. After her much-needed shower, she brushed her long wet hair deciding to let it dry naturally not in the mood for loud noises. She picked up her makeup bag to conceal the hangover that was written all over her face.

Lena picked up on the first ring as if she was waiting for her call. "Hey, babe. How are you? I'm just chilling with Nat and Wanda. Say hi." Lani immediately understood that she needed to watch not to mention the metal man himself.

"Hey, ladies, how is the mission going?" She greeted them.

"We are just on the steak out and it's so boring." Wanda sighed through the phone.

"You probably have some crazy story with Bucky. Tell us, how is the babysitter?" pitched Nat making Lani blush.

"No nothing crazy going on here. We stay out of each other's way. But since you are all here I need some advice. There's this guy, and he just got out of a 'situationship'. What is the appropriate amount of time to wait before you, you know, 'make a move'?" Lani bit her lip waiting for their answers while she styled her damp hair in two loose braids.

"There is a guy?! What's his name?" Wanda exclaimed ready for the tea.

Lani had to think quickly, she couldn't let them know it was about Bucky. Nat and Wanda would probably threaten him. "Um, Joe?"

"Okay, guessing it wasn't too serious, I'd say you need to wait at least a week or two. Do we know this Joe guy?" Natasha answered in deep thought who was this Joe dude all of a sudden?

"Really? I'd say about a month. And yes Lani do we know him? Does he work with us?" Wanda asked excitedly, Lami could hear the smile in her voice.

But Lena's voice cut her off. "Half an hour. You wait half an hour and you go for it, girl."

The line stayed silent for a moment making Lani laugh as she imagined what facial expression each girl was wearing. Nat was probably looking at her sister shaking her head while smirking and Wanda was looking at her with wide eyes trying not to laugh at Yelena's boldness.

Friday's voice brought her attention back. "Miss Stark, the breakfast is served. Mr. Barnes would like you to join him." She sighed but still smiled at the thought of Bucky wanting her there.

"Okay, ladies. I need to go before the Terminator comes in here and drags me to the kitchen himself. I will talk to you later, be safe."

"We will. You too, babe. And remember, wrap it before you tap it." Lena yelled into the phone making Natasha scold her while suppressing a laugh and Wanda burst out into a fit of giggles.
