Guys My Age

Chapter 3

It's been weeks. Weeks since the best thing you could've asked for was given to you. Weeks since you attempted to secretly date Bucky to avoid everyone's teasing remarks. It was sort of impossible considering the fact that you were living with spies and gods.

You and Bucky decided you'd tell everyone at lunch that you were dating. He made fun of you because he said that everyone already knew but you convinced him you wanted to make it official which point he just nodded and kissed you.

Walking into the common room, Bucky was holding your hands and smiled when Steve gave him a pat on the back and whispered 'good job pal.'

You were about to finally struggle through telling them when Sam and Tony interrupted you.

"Finally. Good job tinman. Break her heart and I'll break your neck." Sam attempted to scare Bucky, making the both of you laugh when Bucky raised his eyebrow at the pathetic warning.

"Well, you can try." Bucky kissed you before sitting on the couch.

"Don't worry Sam, if he breaks my heart, I'll break his neck myself." You winked at Bucky before grabbing a drink.

"Remind me to never get on your bad side." Tony came up from behind you and stole the water bottle, barely avoiding your punch.

"So it's official?" Wanda looked up from her book.

"Yes...yes it is." You sat next to Bucky, holding his hand and kissing his palm before laughing at Natasha telling you to stop the sappiness.

"Alright...since we're all here. New Year's is coming up so what better way than-"

"Don't say it." Steve shook his head and sighed when Tony told him to shut up.

"That's right you guessed it. New Year's Party! So wear your best, don't drink too much, and have fun."

"Come on man just one normal year." Bucky whispered so Tony doesn't hear, making you laugh when FRIDAY gave him away.

"This is normal. You sure were boring in the 40s man but this is how we celebrate New Year's now."

"It'll be fun don't worry." You whispered to him and he shook his head at you. "What? What's wrong?" He gave you a shy smile before taking in a deep breath.

"It's nothin. As long as you're my date.."

"Oh you want me to be your plus one?"

He looked up in shock, trying to see if he missed something. "Well, didn't we just..I assumed that-"

"You know you look so cute when you're flustered. Come on, let's go get something to eat." You walked out with him but before exiting, Tony came back in. "Oh the party is tonight by the way..."

"Wait what the hell New Year's isn't for another-" Sam looked up and almost threw something at him.

"I know I know but the DJ rescheduled and he's insane so...get ready!"

"Well...looks like we'll wait for a few hours babe." You frowned at the thought of having to wait a couple of hours for food. "Fine. Ugh god Tony is such-"

"Language!" Steve yelled from the other room making you wonder how he could possibly hear you when you were that far away from him.

Walking to your bedroom, you opened your closet to see what you were going to wear when Bucky came up behind you and wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you in and swaying to the side.

"Come on now, we don't have time for this. Go get ready." You tried to get loose but he only held onto you tighter. When he didn't let go, you turned your head and saw that he had a strange look on his face. A look you didn't like.
