Peter Parker & The Avengers one shots

Bon Appetite

It was just like any ordinary day in summer.

Steve and the others had headed out for a couple of hours since Tony dragged them along to pick some things up.

However, this also meant that they'd be leaving Bucky and Sam alone in the tower...together.

Steve tried to go against it but eventually gave up since he knew Tony wouldn't change his mind.

He'd give them one chance to prove themselves. To prove that they were grown adults and wouldn't ever need to be babysat.

As they left the house it wasn't long before the pair had gotten bored.

"Well...what are we going to do?" Sam asked.

"What do you mean, what are we gonna do? We're gonna sit here like lost puppies until they get back" Bucky told him.

Sam frowned, "You know...you take the joy out of everything."

Bucky smiled. "Thank you"

They sat in silence for a few minutes more before Sam asked Bucky about how his date went.

"Well, it started off well. We had dinner at an old Mexican restaurant that just re-opened. Had a lovely conversation and then came back here and let's just say...my clothes were off in five minutes."

Sam didn't believe a word he said.

"You went to dinner. You opened your moth and you blew it. You waited in line at a local Taco Bell before coming back here, eating your food before you had a shower. You changed into an old t-shirt and joggers before passing out. You was in bed before 9 o'clock."

Bucky nodded. "Well if you knew the truth then why did you ask? How'd you do?"

Sam shook his head. "Not as good."

15 minutes later Bucky stood up and walked over to the kitchen.

"What ya doin'?" Sam asked him

"Baking. I have nothing better to do other than sit in a confused and deafening silence with you."

"Ooh, I'm hurt." Sam jokes before heading up to the kitchen himself.

Stepping up the two small steps into the kitchen, he arrived just across from Bucky with an idea.

Bucky rolled his eyes, "oh god, I know that face. Whatever it is I ain't doing it."

"Baking competition. Me vs You. The winner is decided by the team when they get back."

Bucky pauses, "Okay fine. But if anything goes wrong, I'm blaming you."

Around four hours later, the team got back.

They found both Sam and Bucky in the kitchen. The kitchen itself was now spotless however Sam...not so much.

He had flour splattered across his face. Dry batter up his arms. He seemed to have some sort of jam substance on top of his head, and there wasn't even any jam in the dish.

Bucky was right.

While they had been cooking Bucky had told him something. He himself was the baker, meanwhile...Sam. Well, Sam was the cook.

When he'd been told this Sam simply replied.

Sam shrugged, "Same shit, different field."

Bucky corrected him, "Same field, different shit"

And Bucky was right. They was in the same field of work but baking and cooking were two things entirely separate things.

Bucky managed to cool the situation with the team before they exploded with questions.

When they moved from Bucky's dish to Sam's they all gave a confused look.

Steve asked first, "Sam...what is this?"

Sam hesitated as he thought about his answer but ultimately opted for the truth.

"Well...I started making it. Had a breakdown. Bon Appetite."

(60 points to whoever knows where that line is from)

"Okay, we are never ever leaving you and Barnes in the compound, on your own, ever again."

Seems after that day, Tony listed to Steve a bit more when it came to both Bucky and Sam.
