Protect Her (Bucky x Pregnant Reader)

This one is for @Son_Gorin ! Hope it's what you were looking for darlin! I had a lot of fun writing it and may have gotten a tiny bit carried away with it, but that's okay right? Also, gold star to anyone who knows what movie the song the reader is singing is from!

Warnings: pregnant reader, light angst, protective Bucky, feels, kidnapping, and I think that's it.

Italics are when Bucky first moves to Romania.

It was just another regular old day, opening up you're small fruit stand bright and early with your other coworkers, greeting the lovely people, handing out free fruit to the children, this had been your life for quite some time now. Although today started as it normally did, the ending would be quite different from your normal routine.

Normally you would never give your guests a double take, always too focused on what was being handed out and what needed to be paid for, but you couldn't help but get lost in the eyes of this new man who came to your stand this morning. Stormy ocean blue eyes that looked like they held a thousand stories, luscious chocolate locks falling to his shoulders, with a stray hair that you had to resist brushing away from his perfectly structured face. You watched him as he looked around the area in an almost nervous fashion, he didn't seem like the type of man to be nervous of anything, but it kept you wondering.

You could have sworn your heart skipped a beat when his eyes found yours, locking with yours for a moment and flashing a shy smile before a light blush crept to his cheeks, causing you to do the same. When he started walking towards you, you began to nervously clean off your apron and push your hair back behind your ear, looking down to the fruit in front of you and checking it, though you were to distracted to really tell if anything had gone bad or not. You were suddenly pulled from your pretend fruit inspection when you felt a hand on yours, though they seemed like they would be rough with a hard grip, his hand was soft and gentle as it held yours.

When you looked up at him, those beautiful eyes pulled you in once again, causing your stomach to do flips as you got lost in them. He noticed this and gave another shy smile before giving your hand a light squeeze in hopes that it would pull your out if your trance. When it worked, you couldn't hide the crimson cheeks you now had, but when you noticed it on him too it put you more at ease. "What can I get your you today sir?" You asked softly.

"You know, I'm actually not sure." He told you with a light laugh at the end, feeling slightly embarrassed. "What's your favorite fruit?" He asked you as he looked around.

"Well I have a few." You started with a nervous smile as you looked around at the variety in your stand. "But I'd have to go with the plums, I have yet to find anyone who sells juicer ones than us." You told him as you reached for one, holding it out for him to take. "But you can try to prove me wrong." You smirked.

"How much do I owe you?" He asked, not wanting to take the fruit before he paid you.

"This one is on me, once you get a taste you'll only want more." You joked with him, causing him to laugh a bit before taking a bite out of the plum, smiling and trying not to laugh as some of the juice fell from his lips. "Pretty good right?"

"I'll say! How much for a bag?" He asked you as he started filling one up, knowing he would already pay whatever the price.

"Just five dollars honey." You told him sweetly as he looked up at you with a gorgeous smile. "You know, they're also supposed to be good for your memory too." You told him, not knowing why you did other than just wanting to talk to him some more.
