"Ready for your first undercover mission?" Sam asked as he strapped on his tactical vest.
"I'm not gonna lie. I'm a bit nervous." You replied as you added bullets to your gun.
"You shouldn't be because your boyfriend is going on the mission with us." Sam said, wiggling his eyebrows.
"He's my best friend, Sam. Not my boyfriend, there's a difference." you defended as you looked up from your gun to your friend.
"Sure." he sassed while crossing his arms. "When are you going to confess your undying love for him?" he sarcastically said looking towards you.
"Undying love? I don't know what you're talking about. We've been friends ever since Steve brought him to the compound." you shrugged.
"Oh, you know what I'm talking about. Ever since then the two of you were attached at the hip, which is kinda weird. You've had a crush on him ever since you took him and Steve to the aquarium. I mean come on Y/N are you that oblivious. He likes you too!" Sam huffed with his hands on his hips. "Sooner or later you have to tell him."
"Fine, I'll get to it when I get to it." you huffed finishing loading your gun.
"Whatever." Sam scoffed as he shook his head.
*meanwhile*
"You excited for the mission Buck?" Steve asked as he handed his friend his bag.
"Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?" Bucky asked looking back at Steve.
"Well you and Y/N are going undercover as a couple." he hinted back.
"Yup there's that." Bucky gulped. "But I'm sure it's just like every other mission. Y/N is my best friend, aside from you of course, nothing changes that."
"Bucky you're in love with her. I can clearly see it and Sam can too. Out of all the times the two of you went on your 'friend dates' you had the opportunity to ask her out, but you never did." Steve pointed out looking concerned for Bucky.
"I know." Bucky sighed looking at the ground.
"Remind me again how many times the two of you went out together?" Steve teased.
"Almost every week since our first mission together." he huffed in reply.
"Now why couldn't you have just asked her out? It seems pretty simple since you were the ladies man back when we were younger." Steve said, crossing his arms.
"I don't know Steve. Y/N is different. She's funny, kind yet sarcastic, gorgeous as hell and is really skilled at fighting. I might be a bit intimidated by her at times, but I don't know. We've been friends for a while and I feel like if I were to break that bond at any point she would hate me." Bucky confessed to his friend.
