"Nat, its been over a month!" Bucky sighed, his voiced muffled by the pillow that he buried his face in

"i know buck, i know. But you shouldn't be worried-"

"how could i not be worried?! My boyfriend has been lost on a mission, that was supposed to take three days, for almost 2 month! He could be hurt, or captured, let alone DEAD" The brunette said, on the verge of tears "i just-i just can't lose him."

"bucky.." the red-head started, sitting down next to the crying boy "steve is going to be alright, hes smart enough to not get himself killed, you know that" 

"i-i know, but still, he can be st-stupid sometimes" bucky choked out

"He'll be here soon, i promise. Fury said that if hes not back in the next 12 hours, they're going to send a search team"

"o-ok"

Bucky sat up and hugged his- well, steves, pillow. after about a minute he got up and retreated back to his and steves shared room. The metal-armed man heard natashas footsteps pass by his room, as she made her way elsewhere

Bucky sat on the shared bed, glancing at the night table every so often,he was actually glancing at steves sketchbook, he wanted to take a peek, but also didnt want to invade his lovers privacy.

well, he does trust me..and i trust him, so i guess it wouldnt be that bad if i took a little peek 

And with that, bucky leaned over, grabbing the small book, caressing it in his hands. he slowly opened it to the first page, and stared in awe at the drawing. It was a picture of him and steve, steve holding bucky bridal-style, kissing eachother. Next to it was the orginal poloroid picture.

Bucky turned the page and was pleasantly suprised to find a gorgeously drawn picture of himself. Bucky smiled as he flipped through the rest of the sketches. MOst of them were either of bucky, or of bucky and steve. Others were still-lifes, or landscapes. Smiling in satisfaction, bucky closed the sketchbook delicately, placing in back down in its original spot on the nightstand

/// (time skip to dinner) ///

The avengers gathered at the dining table, waiting for dinner. it was  supposed to be steve and buckys turn to make dinner, but with steve gone, and bucky so worried, clint an thor offered to take over, naturally, bucky thanked them

Bucky sat down in his normal seat, and turned to his left, where steve was supposed to sit. he let out a low sigh and turned his head towards clint, who just walked in with a plate of spagetti, thor following him, with a steaming plate of meatballs and sausage. 

A round of 'thank yous' and 'thanks' went around the table, thanking the two boys. The huge bowl of pasta was passed around the table, of course everyone, being superheros and all, took emormous servings, though bucky took very little, as if he had no appetite, which he hasnt had since steve went missing.

Nat looked forcefully at bucky as he served himself, as if she was mentally making him take more. Slightly intimidated by her looks, he took an extra scoop of pasta, an dpassed it to his right, where bruce was sitting. Bucky liked bruce. He liked how calm and nice he was, at least when he wasn't the hulk. He and bruce had some of the same problems too, he liked being able to relate to someone, he liked having someone relate to him.

Bucky took one more glance at natasha, who mouthed the words "eat, please" 
Bucky nodded and took a small bite, chewing abit and swallowing, then sending a small smile over to natasha.

Dinner went as usual, Tony bragging about peter to clint, thor speaking to bruce about asgard, usually natasha making converstations with himself, and sam talking to steve, though sam was out, and steve, well..

After dinner, everyone gathered around the Televison to watch a movie. Every friday the avengers would  get together after dinner to watch a movie, you have to watch it, unless fury calls you in for something, no exeptions. Tonight it was coincidentally, steve and buckys turn again, though to thank clint and thor for taking over dinner, bucky let them choose.

Considering how childish both, clint and thor, were, everyone fully expected to be watching a disney movie. Which was correct, they chose the incredibles, which happened to be thors favorite misgardian movie. 

Bucky got comfortable in the corner of the couch, cuddling up with steves pillow, in steves sweatshirt

Around halfway through the movie, the doorbell rang. Bucky assumed it was sam and let Natasha answer it

"Hey captain, welcome back" was all bucky heard before he practically knocked over the whole couch. Bucky immediatly saw who it was, and swung his body over the couch, almost hitting thor with his leg, then sprinting toward the door. Bucky jumped onto his beloved boyfriend, his legs around steves waist, and his armed looped around his neck. Bucky buried his face into the crook of steves neck and hugged him tightly.

Bucky lifed his head up to meet steves eyes

"are you ok?" the brunette asked worriedly "did they get you? why did it take so long? where were you? i was really worried stevie, are you sure you're ok?" Bucky rapid fired questions so fast steve could comprehend most of them

"baby im fine, not hurt at all, the plane just took a detour to were the mission was moved, thats all." steve told his boyfriend with a reassuring smile

Bucky quickly attached his lips to steves and gave him a sweet kiss, filled with all the love bucky had for the strong blonde. eventually they separated

"i missed you too buck" steve smiled

They heard someone clearing their through from behind them, bucky turned his head around, steve not putting his down just yet

"welcome back rogers" tony said, clapping steve on the back, and bucky blushing. realizing that everyone saw the past events

"glad to be back, stark" steve replied, pecking buckys lips again

"cute" natasha smiled, winking at the couple, before waving at them to go sit back down to enjoy the movie

steve followed the rest of the avengers back to the couch, carrying bucky with him. He sat down in the corner of the couch, bucky cuddling up against his chest, kissing his cheek occasionally.

"i love you, buck" the blonde whispered into bucky ear

"and i love you stevie" the brunette whispered back, yawning
