(Alright, before I begin, I have a few things to say. First, thank you to @_baller_2020_ for the idea. Second. I have never seen the notebook. Sorry if it's not specific to a part, I'm just going off of what I've heard / read about. But, hope you enjoy it anyway!)

"Come on, Bucky. It's just a movie! You can last two hours," you begged him to watch The Notebook with you. You were in the mood to watch it, and wanted to have a shoulder to cry on if need be.

And he wanted none of it. "No! I don't wanna watch some movie where you're basically forced to cry. I don't want that,"

"Come on, please? We can watch whatever or do whatever you want afterward!" You tried anything to get him to just sit there and watch it. "You don't even have to pay attention! Just look like you are,"

"Ugh, fine." He rolled his eyes as you cheered. "Only for you I would do this."

You dragged him to the living room and he finished.

----

Once you had put the DVD in, got onto the couch, and got comfortable next to Bucky, the movie began.

----

Every once in a while, you would check on him to see if he was actually paying attention, he was, for the most part. Which was totally fine. And every once in a while, he would check on you, so he could see you so focused, and possibly mouthing some of the quotes along with the actors. He thought it was cute that you did that. But, he decided to actually watch the movie. To be honest, he kind of enjoyed it.

----

When it was nearing the end, you knew what would happen and tried to stay strong. You ended up not crying, but there were tears falling.

Bucky.

He ended up crying. He was hiding it pretty affectively, until you looked at him when the credits began.

"Oh my god! Bucky! You big softy," you teased him.

"Shut up," he said as he wiped the tears away, "Don't you dare tell anyone."

"I make no promises!" You almost sang as you began to get up.

He pulled you back down by your wrist. "No, you're the one who made me watch it, and now what I want in return is that you don't tell anyone. Fair?"

You sighed, "Fair."

"Good," he kissed you. "It wasn't that bad, either. But I'm not watching it again."

"Well, only if I need you to cry again," you teased.

"Ugh," he stood up, and flexed his arms. "I'm a man! I'm gonna go do some push ups."

You laughed at him.

----

After a few minutes, you went to apologize for making fun of him. He was in the bedroom and you slowly opened the door.

"Bucky? Hey, I'm sorry... Wait, what's going on?"

He was just laying on the bed, cuddling a pillow.

He turned to face you, went wide eye, and stood up quickly.

"Oh, ah..."

"Oh, Bucky, come here." You opened your arms for him.

He walked over and almost collapsed into you.

"God that movie, it really hits you, doesn't it?"

Still hugging, you nodded and led him back to the bed. You got into a comfortable position to lay together in, and relaxed. 

"It's okay, it happens to the best of us. Just let those emotions flow, Bucky."

You ended up staying there for a while, until he said,

"If you're a bird, I'm a bird,"

A/N - that's from it, right?

And you laughed a bit, and said,

"If you're a bird, I'm a bird."
