The party starts at 7 pm and it is currently 11 am. Well in Italy it is 5 pm cause of time zones and everything. Steve has already gotten everything we need packed onto the jet ready to go.
I'm wearing a red dress and my hair is curled. I'm looking at myself in the mirror admiring how hot I am when I hear a knock at my door.
"Cass are you ready Steve said we should be going now" Bucky says on the other side of the door.
"Come in" I say and I hear the door open behind me as I look for my purse "sorry I'm just looking for my bag" I say to Bucky while making a mess in my closet. I finally find my bag under a bunch of clothes.
"Okay I'm ready Sarge" I say turning around to look at him.
Our eyes meet. Bucky doesn't look away and neither do I, not even for an instant. I feel my gaze soften, as I look at him.
I quickly snap out of my gaze but Bucky doesn't. He just looks at me.
" I'm ready" I say and that snaps him out of his gaze.
His face gets slightly red and he looks away "Oh yeah let's go" he says and walks towards the elevator and I follow.
The elevator hummed softly as the doors slid shut, trapping us in a small, confined space.
The elevator doors open and we both walk to go out. Bucky stops and gestures his arm for me to go first and I do.
We walk to the jet.
I take a seat on the jet next to Natasha. Bucky is standing in the front of the jet next to Steve.
I tap my foot on the floor, anxious for what's to come.
Natasha grabs my hand "it will be okay Cass" she says to try and calm me down. It doesn't help.
Then Natasha waves Bucky over. She stands up "try and calm her down because it seems like you're the only one who can through to her these days" she says and walks away to Steve.
Neither of us say anything to break the silence building up between us. Our knees are touching and neither one of us moves our knees.
"I'm not going to leave your side" Bucky says to me quietly and I nod.
"I promise doll I won't let anything happen to you" he says to me.
"I know I trust you" I say to Bucky. We sit in silence for what feels like forever and then Steve says "we are here" and everyone gets ready to go in. Me and Bucky are going to be undercover inside. The others are going to set the perimeter.
Steve goes over the basic rules and what we all need to do.
We all get in black cars to drive the masquerade ball. When the car pulls up to ball a man opens the door from the outside. Bucky steps out first and then grabs my hand to help me out of car.
I put my arm around his and we walk into the ball.
When we walk in everyone has masks on just like us and we fit in perfectly with everyone.
"Remember we have to be believeable" Bucky whispers into my ear.
Steve says in the ear piece "you have ten minutes before you can go bug the room cass waste time until then"
I know exactly how to waste time. I'm not going to like it though.
"Dance with me" I say to Bucky.
"Ask me properly" he says with a charismatic smile and I roll my eyes.
"Will you go and dance with me so all these idiots here believe we are a real couple" I say with a fake smile.
"Good enough" Bucky says and grabs my hand. He leads me to the middle of the room to dance.
