bucky barnes ≫ dancing

You and your boyfriend, Bucky Barnes, lay entangled in each other's limbs and fluffy blankets on your couch. His breath was slow and steady on your neck, his metal hand held you close to him very gently, as if he was scared to hurt you. Re-runs of some stupid reality show played in the background but you weren't paying attention to it.

"Bucky?" You asked, your voice so soft and quite it was almost like you were whispering. You turned your head slightly so that you were looking into his eyes. His eyes were so beautiful, they were like pools of deep blue water. You could get lost in them all day long.

"What was it like back in your day?" This was a question you had always wanted to ask but you were always to scared to. You feared that if you made him bring up his life before HYDRA experimented on him then he might have a severe panic attack and lash out on you.

"You make it sound like I'm an old man." His chest shook as he laughed at your question, your head moved up and down along with it.

"Well technically you are." You couldn't help the smirk that spread over your face as you looked at your handsome boyfriend. "Steve told me that all the girls were after in them days. You were the famous Bucky Barnes."

"Well," he started, a smirk spreading across his own face. "I was pretty well known for being a ladies man, but not always in a good way."

"What do you mean?" You asked, confusion etched on your face, unsure what he had meant by that sentence.

"Well when you become so well known for being a ladies man, people begin to avoid you. I would always get the 'oh don't talk to him, have you not heard about him and all them girls?'." You slightly frowned at his words, but the frown was quickly wiped off your face when he spoke again, only to be replaced with a look of shock. "I was the guy all the mothers and fathers warned their daughters about. 'Don't let me catch you going out with that Bucky Barnes, he's nothing but trouble.' I wasn't that bad."

"Seriously?" You couldn't believe it, had he been that much of a ladies man? He just nodded slightly in response.

"The best part about them days was the dancing. My god I loved to dance. Everyone would be at the dance on a Saturday night, even Steve! Then again that was because I dragged him along all the time."

A smile made it's way on to his face as he stared off into space. You could tell he was remembering the good times, before all this horrible stuff happened to him.

"Teach me to dance?" Bucky's head whipped round, his eyebrow raised. "What?"

"Nothing, I just wouldn't think you'd want to dance." He said, his eyes avoiding your own.

You held his face with your hand, forcing him to look at you. "Bucky, I'd love to learn to dance with you. It would make you happy and it would make me happy."

After you'd chosen a song that Bucky had recognised, you got prepared to dance.

"Put this hand on my shoulder," He ordered, pulling your right hand up. "and this hand holds my hand." Bucky's left arm wrapped around your waist, pulling you against him.

The music began to play, at first it was very difficult and you kept managing to stand on Bucky's feet but by the end of the song you were practically a natural. You both moved around the room swiftly. Your faces were inches apart, both adorned with smiles.

"That was fun." You smiled, your eyes flicking down to look at his lips for a second.

"Yeah it was, you were great Doll." Bucky twirled you again, even though there was no actual music. "You know, (Y/N)?"

"Mmmm"

"There was one thing that I didn't like from back then."

"And what might that have been?" You asked, curious.

"I didn't have you then."

Okay so the reason I'm uploading so many imagines within such a short space of time is because I have the time and I want to get them written and done because I'll have no time next week because I'm going to a party, I have to finish work for my art exam and I'm going away for the day with my step mum so I wanted to have some stuff up for you guys.

Also can I just thank the people that are constantly reading, commenting and voting for these imagines, it honestly means the world to me. Every time I get a nice comment or a couple of votes I get so happy so thank you!
