The Red Star

Christmas Special

*Since I'm currently having issues with writer's block, imma write a Christmas Special, since Christmas is here. Hope you all enjoy! Love my readers and followers thank you for taking the time to read my stuff!

Jay stared at the tree with an odd look on her face. She had never really celebrated Christmas before. At least, not since her parents.......she drove the thought from her mind and shut her eyes. She forced herself to keep a calm and happy demeanor, but it was definitely hard.

When she opened her eyes she jumped back on seeing Bucky staring right back at her. He laughed and sat on the sofa beside her saying,

"Why so serious?"

Jay shrugged and drew her knees to her chest, resting her chin atop of them. Bucky watched her, thinking hard of what he could do to make her smile.

The sound of the Christmas music on the radio could be heard in the background and a thought came to him. He sat in silence, hoping that the song he wanted would come on. The music stopped, then started up again and Bucky smiled. It was the song he hoped for and he cleared his throat, knowing Jay wasn't paying any attention to the radio.

"Ill have a blue, Christmas, without you." Bucky began.

Jay was startled by his rich voice and she stared at him. He smiled as he sang, the words being practically memorized. He had never seen her smile si brightly before and a tingling feeling rose un his chest. She was too beautiful. It was then that he promised himself that he would strive to make her smile like that every day.

When he finished singing Jay said,

"I didn't know you could sing like that!"

Bucky laughed then said,

"I didn't know you could smile like that."

Jay flushed a deep red then looked at her feet.

"Yeah, well, no one has sung for me before."

"I will." He said, he inched closer to her and added, " I will sing to you whenever you want....you just have to do something for me."

Jay's heartbeat quickened and she asked,

"What do you want?"

"Blue," he said, coming close, "I want you to smile like that for me every day."

That smile didn't waste a moment to spread across her lips and she blushed.

"I think i can manage that."

"Good." Bucky said. He leaned forward and pressed his lips on her forehead, shutting his eyes and resting there a moment. When he pulled away, he whispered,

"My Blue." He added a smile and said, "Merry Christmas."

Jay was about to speak when Johnny and Logan burst into the room laughing and joking. Jay chuckled and said,

"And that is why I don't mix alcohol with my eggnog."

"I prefer vodka myself." Bucky said.

Jay laughed and said,

"Oh yeah, real festive Bucky."

"I know." He answered.

Jay laughed and let her head fall back on the couch. She turned her head to look at Bucky to find him already smiling peacefully at her.

"Merry Christmas James."

His smile brightened and he said,

"Merry Christmas, my Bluejay."
