bucky barnes ➸ movie night

word count - 769

i had to rewrite this many times bc I just wasn't happy with it. I think I like how this one was tho. Also, sorry for the long wait! Hope you enjoy!

request - Could I get a Bucky/Reader imagine? Civil War never happened and Bucky is safe at the tower and everybody likes everyone (mostly). Bucky has an episode where he reverts back to the Winter Soldier and the reader is the only one who can bring him out of it. Like, she's in her room and Friday informs her what's happening, she runs down to the main room where everyone is trying to stop Bucky, but it's the reader's voice and touch is what brings him back? Thanks Dearie!

Also, requests are still open, but I have to write a few more one shots so I'm sorry if it takes a long time for me to get to your request.

9:42 pm, Bucky's POV

Tonight was the annual movie night at Stark Tower. I would usually never take part in this, but tonight I was hoping to get a seat next to (Name) so you could finally make a move on her.

As I walked into the room, trailing behind Steve, I saw (Name) leave the room. So, I nudged Steve with my elbow and nod in her direction.

"(Name)?" Steve softly spoke.

"Yes, Steve?" She replied, visibly annoyed as she turned on her heels to face me and Steve from the hallway.

Steve furrowed his brows and started to speak, "You won't be joining us tonight?"

She let out a short breathe, "Ah, no. Unfortunately I won't be. I'm rather tired and am just going to head to bed."

"Oh, okay. Goodnight, (Name)."

"Goodnight, Steve." She said with a soft smile. "Also, goodnight everyone."

Soft responses followed (Name)'s words.

Then she left the room.

"Sorry, Bucky. Looks like your plan failed." Steve said with an apologetic look.

"God dammit. Don't worry about it Steve."

I sat down and decided to watch the sappy war movie when we picked out for tonight. I'm just going to have to get through this movie, even if (Name) isn't here.

11:09 pm, (Name's) POV

You jolted awake to a sudden, and extremely loud noise. In your still sleepy state you began mumbling something along the lines of "Tony and his loud ass stereo system."

You began rubbing your head. Now that you were awake you knew you wouldn't be able to fall asleep again until a while. You looked around for a book to read or something.

"Miss (Last Name)," FRIDAY said, scaring you with the sudden booming noise, "the man you are always drooling over is currently having an episode in the main room."

You ignore the clever comment FRIDAY just made and make your way to the door as quick as you could. You bolted down the hall and as you turned the corner you could see the now destroyed main room. The noises that woke you up weren't the stereo system, dumbass. The noises were the result of Bucky throwing furniture around.

"What the hell happened?" I shouted over all the commotion.

Natasha just replies with three simple words, "The Winter Soldier."

Oh bloody hell! You just wanted to sleep, but no! Now, my crush is becoming a brainwashed assassin again. You ran over to Steve as Bucky was currently fighting with Tony and The Vision.

"How are we gonna stop him?" you said quickly.

"In all honestly, I have no clue, (Name)." Steve said in a whisper.

You pondered for a brief moment.

"I have an idea."

You ran over to Bucky and grabbed his hand. You knew this was risky but you didn't care, you just wanted Bucky back.

"Buck, it's me. Please come back. This isn't you." you yelled as he turned around to look at you.

He was tense, but ended up looking right at you, going dead silent in the process.

Bucky's POV

His mind was racing. The women he cared for, and ever so secretly loved was standing before him, their surroundings a mess. Her voice was inaudible, but he knew her words were meant for him. Her face was filled with worry. Her hair was a mess, as if she just woke up. He looked at the surroundings again, and then it hit him. He went full Winter Soldier mode. Oh god, did he hurt anyone? Did he hurt her? If her even laid a finger on her then he knew he would never be able to forgive himself. All I could do was mutter out a few words that I needed to know the answer to.

"Did I hurt you?" I said, practically trembling.

All the worry in her face was gone as her eyes started to get glossy and she just looked at me.

"(Name), did I?" I questioned, my voice cracking this time.

"You didn't hurt me, Buck." She smiled.

God, did I love her smile. It was one of the best things in the world.

"Thank god." I mumble under my breath.

Her smile gets wider.

"I'm glad you're okay. You scared me so bad to be honest." she said.

(Name) then did what I never expected her to do, but always wished for her to do. She kissed me on the cheek then giggled with a small blush on her cheeks.

"Now, we've got some cleaning to do, Barnes... and maybe after that we can have a movie night of our own."
