Just By Being You

Part 3

The next day Presley was about to head to cheer practice when Bucky stopped her and said "Hey um are you doing anything after practice?"

"No do you want to work on our paper." She said

"Yeah if you don't mind I um would also like to show you something too." he said 

"Um ok. I guess just meet me in the gym after you are done." she said 

"ok." he said they both went to their practices.

Bucky and Steve came in and Presley was up in the air doing a back tuck and Bucky said "Geez she's good." 

Steve chuckled and said "I know why do you think the girls have been up her ass." as they both sat down on the bleachers. The routine ended with Presley back up doing a heel stretch and Nat said "Ok girls practice is over." Wanda and Carol put Presley back on the floor and she went over to her bag and got a water out. She was in her sports bra and shorts and dripped in sweat and Bucky came over and said "You look like me when I"m done with practice." 

She just laughed and she said "We are learning like 6 different cheer routines and 2 team dances and then Nat wants us 4 girls to do a group dance all for a competition next month it's gets a little hot." 

She pulled her t shirt on and she was about to grab her bag and he said "No I've got it my mom is already outside."

"Oh thanks." She said as he saw that he had her bag and his football gear. He put her stuff and his in his mom's trunk and they went to his house. He got them set up in the kitchen and worked on the paper and she had dinner with him. He said "Before you go home I want to show you something." He took her outside and helped her on his 4 wheeler he put her in front of him and held her hands on the handle bars and they took off towards the corn field that is part of his grandpa's farm. The stars were already out and grabbed a blanket that was in the trunk of his 4 wheeler. 

"Bucky I really hope that you didn't bring me out here for a reason." Presley said 

"No I didn't bring you out here for that. I know what you told Nat." he said 

He spread the blanket out and said "Sit." 

She bit her lip and sat beside him and he  said "I brought you out so we could talk just talk ok. Cause I do like you Presley and I'm sorry that I didn't know who you were last weekend but to be fair Presley you hide and I know that's why you are mad that we have been sorta right in each other's faces for the first time ever but I like to think it's for a reason." 

She looked down and wished she could hide right now. She started to chew on her lip and he said "Presley talk to me what is this really about?"

"It's nothing really..I have been here the whole time and no one looks in my direction my best friends are 3 of the most popular girls in school and no one even sees me. I get that I have glasses that I were when I don't wear my contacts or I'm the smart girl but that doesn't mean that I don't have feelings." she said as a tear fell down her cheek 

He turned on his phone and saw the tear cause he could she sounded like she was going to cry. He wiped the tear away and said "Don't cry darlin.." 

She sniffled back some tears and said "Bucky Im sorry if I have been a bitch to you I just I have never had anyone like me. And like I said to Nat I'm not going to be a good girlfriend for you I'm still a virgin and I don't know when I will be ready for that. Part of me is a hopeless romantic and the other part of me isn't." 

"You have no reason to apologize to me ok I was a jerk to you at Nat's part and I deserved every bit of what you said to me and I deserve you being a bitch to me. I'm not going to use Steve and Nat as my messenger anymore I want you and I to talk ok..just like this you and I no friends around." Bucky said
