Rebel

Part 4

Bucky sat at his work bench, his head in his hands. He had the perfect plan in place to ask you out thanks to the Parker kid. Thanks to the Parker kid he also was back where he had started. After Peter had interrupted, Bucky jumped on his bike and headed to his mom's house. He need her home cooking and her advice.

Maybe asking you out was a mistake. What if you told Peter you didn't want to date him and that's why the kid kept interrupting? When he said all this to his mother she just laughed. "That girl thinks you are the sweetest boy in town. She told me so herself. When she found out I was your mom, she spoke about you better than even I could."

Bucky allows the tiniest of grins to grace his face as his mom goes back to making his food. "What do I do ma?"

-

Steve stood on the other side of the road from Buzz. When Winnie called him he had been surprised. He thought for sure that Buck would have gone through with the plan. He was sick of watching Bucky being all pouty and sad. He was a biker! He needed to act like one.

Steve watched as Peter Parker, your first customer of the day left your shop. He made his way across the street and walked in.

He almost laughed when the disappointment flashed on your face. "Expecting someone else?"

You immediately begin to try and apologize when Steve held up his hand, "Relax doll, I'm just teasing."

"But speaking of Bucky, can you do me a favor?" You nod at Steve and grab an empty cup, and begin making Steve's usual.

"Throw the guy a bone! It's not natural for a biker to be so hung up on a girl that he smiles that much." You hand his drink to him with a smile and let out a laugh at the expression on his face.

"Not that it's any of your business but I planned on asking him today if he didn't ask me. He hasn't come in yet though." You let out another giggle at the relief on Steve's face.

"Thank God! Don't worry he'll be here. Thanks for the joe doll." With that Steve dropped some money on the counter, turned and left the shop leaving you feeling slightly less worried about Bucky.

-

It was around noon, when a pretty brunette girl walked in the shop. Bright blue eyes scan your form, before she took her seat at the bar. She waited till you were in front of her, before giving you a wide smile.

"So you're Y/n! My brother goes on and on about you. I'm Rebecca Barnes." She extends her hand out to you and you take it.

"It's nice to meet you, your mom told me Bucky had sisters. What can I do for you?" You give her a smile and watch as her eyes are almost identical to Bucky's when he gets excited.

She pulls out a notebook from her purse and sits up straighter on the stool, a serious look on her face. "I'm here as legal representation for my brother. I'm here to argue on his behalf for you to go on a date with him."

The amused look on your face has her giving you a sheepish smile, "I'm pre-law. In all honesty my brother adores you. For a guy who's a bit rough looking, he is a sweetheart."

"I know he is. I had Steve in here earlier and I told him, what I'm gonna tell you. I am gonna say yes if he asks today. And if he doesn't, well I'm gonna ask him." Becca let out a loud squeal and you laughed as she bounced in her seat.

"If anyone asks will you say I convinced you?"

-

It was late in the afternoon and you were taking the trash out, only another hour till closing and you hadn't seen hide nor hair of Bucky.

You threw the trash in the bin in the alley behind your shop and turned to head back inside only to be blocked by a large man in a leather jacket.

You jump violently and throw a hand to your chest, "Jesus Sam! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?!"

"Sorry kid, I just gotta ask you something-" you hold up your hand to stop him already knowing what he is going to say.

"YES! Okay I'm going to say yes to Bucky if he asks me out. If he doesn't I'm asking him!"

Sam gives you a small smile, "I was just wondering if you had any of that cake I had yesterday left. I don't care if date that idiot or not."

You are about to apologize when you notice the satisfied smile he was failing to hide. You nudge his shoulder as you walk by him.

"Yeah there's a slice"

-

You had just locked the door to Buzz, when you heard a familiar rumble of motorcycles coming down the street. You rushed to get your apron off and to check your appearance in the mirror behind the bar.

Just as the bikes approached the shop you turned to the door with a wide smile on your face, only to find all three men rode past, none of them even looking your way.

You can't help the disappointment sinking in your gut. You go behind the bar and grab a bottle of water for your drive home and hang your apron on it's hook. Grabbing your purse you begin digging through it for your car keys as you drift toward the front door.

When you finally look up, Bucky is there standing in front of the door his hands in his jean pockets.

You suddenly feel nervous, but unlock the door and gesture for him to come inside. He walks in and takes a breath before turning to you.

"I wanna ask you somethin"

Before he could finish speaking you rushed forward and connected your lips with his. He is only stunned for a moment before his hands find your waist and he returns the kiss eagerly. It only lasts for a moment before you pulled back, only to have Bucky lean forward to press his lips against yours for a quick peck.

"Yes - I'll go out with you." You let out a laugh at the delight in Bucky's eyes, his hands still heavy on your waist, not wanting to let you go‍.

"Good, tomorrow okay?" You give him a nod and lean into him.

"I can't believe you sent Steve, Sam, and Becca just to make sure I'd say yes. I'm flattered."

Bucky laughs kissing your cheek, "you should be flat- what do you mean? I didn't send them - those rats I'm gonna -"

You place your finger on his lips and give him a soft smile, "Let's forget about them and tomorrow. Let's go to the diner tonight."

He kisses your finger and nods at you with a grin before taking your hand and pulling you out the door.
