xiv. APOLOGY PIZZA

[REQUEST]

You and Bucky weren't ones to get into fights. However, when you did, they were bad.

"I don't care if you're saving the entire goddamn world. You almost died." Bucky shouts at you from across the room. Both of you being Avengers seemed to cause serious problems due to Bucky's overprotective nature.

"What about you? A super soldier serum can't always save you so stop thinking that taking a bullet for me is the best thing you can do."

"You're so ungrateful. I do things like that because I want to protect you." Bucky's volume was rising and the two of you were moving further apart. In more ways than one.

"I can protect myself." Bucky scoffs at your response. "No you can't. If it wasn't for me you'd be dead. You're barely a viable Avenger considering you never save anyone. You always need saving."

Tears well up in your eyes and you struggle to hold them back. "Get out." Your voice is much lower and your tone wavers.

"I didn't mean-"

"Go." You shout, taking Bucky by suprise. He furrows his eyebrows and opens his mouth as if he was going to say something but shuts it again. Then he leaves, closing the door behind him.

It was pretty late at night when a knock on your door rang through your apartment. You grabbed the gun from under your bed and loaded it, turning the safety off.

You opened your door to be met with someone holding multiple pizza boxes that towered above their face.

"Pizza delivery."

"Buck, I know it's you. I doubt the pizza delivery guy has a metal arm too."

Bucky walked through your door and set the boxes down. "I didn't invite you in."

"These are apology pizzas. Please take them or I will start crying right here."

"I'm sorry, doll. I didn't mean what I said. I just worry about you. A lot."

You rolled your eyes. He'd moved closer to you and his hands were on your waist, pulling you closer. You avoided eye contact whilst saying "That's my problem. I don't want you worrying about me when I'm perfectly capable of protecting myself."

Bucky sighed, kissing your forehead. "I know you are, sweetie. But what kind of relationship would this be if I didn't worry about you. I know for a fact that you worry about me."

You roll your eyes and nod, knowing what he'd said was true. "So you brought me apology pizzas?"

"Yeah and look." He opened the box and on the pizza the topping spelt out 'The best and most capable Avenger'.

"The guy looked at me a little weird after I asked for 15 of these with the same message but I think he'd sensed that it was an apology pizza."

You laughed at his comment and he smiled, taking that as an acceptance of his apology. "I'm sorry too. I don't have a pizza to show it though."

"It's cool, I think I have enough to cover us both."

And so, the two of you ate pizza for almost every meal that week.
