A High School Thing

Protective Big Sister

It's been two weeks since Steve and Natasha had a conversation and nothing much has happened since then. Steve and Yelena's relationship is not the best and Steve could tell that it was slowly coming to a close. He needed some advice.

"You have a hot rich girlfriend and you want to break up with her Steve?" Steve had made the mistake of coming to Bucky for help. "Is there something wrong with you?"

"I just... I don't feel anything."

"We are in high school, no one feels anything." He claimed. "Look, Steve, homecoming is next week, you and I are on the football team, more importantly, you are a football team captain, you need a date to the dance."

"First of all, I don't need a date. Second of all, I just think in order for both of us to be happy we can't be with each other."

"Steve please don't do that." Bucky groaned. "You finally have a girlfriend! Dude. I don't see what you have to ruin that."

"You are not being a very supportive best friend Buck."

"No? Well, personally I don't really care." Bucky groaned. "You are going to regret this so much."

"I think it's best. She deserves someone who can make her happy, and my heart is not it." He said.

"You are gonna break her heart, Steve."

"She will be okay, I know that. Plus she has already expressed many times how this thing between us was temporary and won't last long." He said. "I am just pushing the inedible."

"You are an idiot. Have I mentioned that?"

"Only a few times Buck."

"Good, because you are." He sighed. "Well good news is there will be plenty of other women around here dying to date the high school football team captain. Use that title if you may, it is an honor and a whole lot of responsibility."

"You are full of shit,"

"Language Steve!" Bucky cried out. "Okay, now that we have discussed how you're an idiot, let's go, I am meeting Connie up at your dinner and promised her a shake on the house."

"Do you even have money for a shake?"

"No, that's why it's on the house."

"Why do I let you do things like this?" Steve groaned. "Sometimes I really question myself."

"Come on Steve, those shakes won't make themselves!" Bucky called out as he was already walking away from him. Sometimes he really hated having such a girl-crazy best friend.

The next day.

Natasha was trying to find her pencil in her locker, she couldn't find it and it was her very last one! She had boughten at least a pack of 50 before school started and had seemed to lost every single one and it wasn't even October yet! Who is steeling them?

"Did you hear the news girls?" Natasha, unfortunately, had her locker not far from Sharon Carter and her group of annoying popular girls. Sharon was nice enough, she wasn't really mean it was more that she was boy crazy. Especially boy crazy for boys who so happened to be named 'Steve.' When it came to boys she was a jerk, however, if she's anywhere else she is a somewhat tolerable person.

"What is it?" Someone else asked.

"I heard Steve Rogers is finally breaking up with his girlfriend," What? Natasha was beyond shocked, she could also practically see the smile on Carter's face.
