Part 3

It was the next morning and the guys had a full day of appointments at the shop, but they still had business with Peter. He had of course spilled more than enough information to Bucky, he was completely convinced that he was gonna leave Buzz with a date. He was gonna start simple, he had plenty of ammo, no need to use it all at once.

So true to their word, Steve and Bucky picked up Peter and drove him to school. They pulled in front of the school, their bikes causing the teenagers to all look in their direction. Peter hops off the back of Steve's bike and waves at the two men as he walks toward the school. Bucky and Steve shut off their bikes, maintaining the stares of the other students. "Hey Parker"

Peter turns and looks toward the two men on the bikes, "We owe you."

With that being said, Bucky nodded at Steve and he tossed Peter a leather jacket from his saddlebag. Neither man looked his way any longer and started their bikes and left the school. Peter had caught the jacket easily and turned back toward the school as the men drove away.

Peter scanned the crowd and his eyes locked with Simon's. A small half smile appears on Simon's face and he watches for a moment as Peter maintains eye contact and walks towards him. When Peter finally reaches him, he lets out a breathless, "Hi"

"Hey" Peter opens his mouth to say something else, only to have Simon turn away from him, heading toward the entrance to the school.

"You coming Parker?"

You had been cleaning the shop in anticipation for the afternoon rush when the sounds of bikes came rumbling to a stop in front of your shop. You look up and can't prevent the grin from taking over your face. Peter had texted you and let you know he wouldn't be in for his usual morning jolt, but he would be in for the afternoon. Apparently he had "Club Business".

You had laughed loudly when you got the text. You had no idea what Peter was up to, you only hoped he wouldn't get in too much trouble. You see Bucky and Steve talking in front of the big bay window.

Bucky seemed to be pleading to Steve, all the while Steve stared at you through the window with a big grin. You wave at the blond and Bucky finally looks at what is distracting his best friend.

When he sees you his whole demeanor changes. He pushes Steve away giving him a slight glare, before making his way into the shop. Your grin only seems to grow and Steve rolls his eyes following Bucky in.

"Hey sweetheart how bout a cup o' my favorite?" You smile at the grin and thick accent Bucky only seems to have in your presence. You nod and get started making his coffee, all the while pulling a mug out for Steve as well.

"What brings the two of you here this early in the afternoon? I figured you would have a book full of appointments to handle." You finish making the drinks and place them in front of the men who are sitting at the bar.

Before Bucky could answer you, Steve cut him off. "We had club business this morning, so the book was light all day."

You couldn't help but burst into laughter catching both men off guard. "This business didn't happen to include Peter Parker did it?"

Steve sent a worried glance at Bucky, while Bucky sent a panicked look your way, "Why?! What did he tell you?!"

You let out a small laugh at Bucky's blushing face, it was the first time you'd seen him blush and boy was it a sight to see. "He texted me talking about club business. I assumed it was something for school, guess it wasn't."

Bucky and Steve both let out matching sighs of relief and gladly took the cups of coffee you placed in front of them. They both took generous sips and you watched them with a small smile.

It was only a few minutes later that the bell over the door rang out, you left your spot in front of Bucky and headed to the register. Stan, the husband of the local florist Joan, came in with a big grin. "Got a delivery for ya here. Looks like someone's sweet on ya kid."

You shoot a confused look at Stan, then chance a glance at Bucky. His eyes are focused on the coffee cup in front of him, while Steve seems to be trying - and failing - to hide a smile behind his cup.

"Thanks Stan, tell Joan I said hi." Stan offered you a salute as you inspected the flowers, your favorite of course, you looked all around but there was no card attached. You shoot a glance at Bucky once more and find him looking at you with a slight smile, his eyes boring into yours.

Your staring contest is broken when Steve stands slapping his hand good heartedly on Bucky's leather clad shoulder. Neither of you say anything until Steve leaves the shop.

"Are these -"

"Those are-"

You both laugh and look down shaking your head a bit as you set the flowers on the counter behind you. When you turn around Bucky is leaning on the counter his arms in front of him, his hands clasped.

"Y/n those are from me -" Before he could say anything else, Peter came bursting into the shop, running over to where Bucky sat.

"Did it work? Did she say yes?" His eyes excited.

You look at Peter with a slightly amused expression, while Bucky sits staring at Peter in shock. "Yes to what?"

Before Bucky could open his mouth Peter was opening his, luckily Bucky came to his senses and covered Peter's mouth with his hand. "Nothin' sweetheart. Peter's just talking about our business from earlier. Nothin' for you to worry about."

He stumbles from his chair and pulls Peter with him out the shop, as you look on in amusement. You of course knew Bucky was going to ask you out, and sure you could have just said yes, but man was it fun to watch that handsome biker get nervous because of you.
