Chapter Fifthteen

As the week went on you and Bucky continued your normal routine. Bucky began with some flirty comments so you responded with comments just as flirty, this made you both laugh and without telling each other how your feelings were growing.

You and Bucky had finished training and had both taken a shower in either changing room. "Alright Barnes, you bring the film and I'll cook up the popcorn." You said walking out, he watched you leave, his heart twisted when he watched your hair swinging side to side. You slipped into a pair of tracksuit bottoms and a strappy vest top.

Bucky knocked on your door holding up the DVD he had, "YES. I've wanted to watch this for so long. I've heard such mixed reviews about it." You said ushering him in. "It's like three hours long you know that right?" You said placing it down on the table as you sat on the sofa. "That's alright, at least I'll finally have three hours of silence." Bucky laughed as he took his jumper off showing his tight white T-shirt. "You'd miss the noise Barnes." You smirked, "in your dreams." He grinned as he put the DVD into the player, you suddenly jumped up onto the sofa startling Bucky, "SERGEANT BARNES CAN FINALLY USE THE DVD PLAYER." You shouted jumping up and down.

He shook his head and you started laughing, he took a free pillow and threw it at you, it hit you in the face and you dramatically fell onto the sofa, Bucky was at your side in a second, you poked your head out from the pillow and smirked at him, "Ahh you do care, just the tiniest bit." He grabbed them pillow and hit you with it, "alright alright truce." You said holding your hand out, he took your hand and it was like electric going through you, "truce." He said starting as intently as you were.

As you watched the movie you could occasionally feel his eyes on you, "where you, alive when Pearl harbour happened?" You asked him, "how old do you think I am? I was at school when that happened." He said laughing, "ahh okay, I thought you was 100 or something." You said sticking your tongue out 😜, "I did enlist after Pearl harbour, I think that was the push I needed." He said, "my hero." You said batting your eyelids, he nudged you with his hand and you went back to watching the film.

Bucky watched as you reacted to Raf being alive, you excitedly slapped Bucky's leg then brought your knees up to your chest, Bucky smiled as he watched you, you watched the date between Evelyn and Danny, you sat there wide eyed as the similar events unfolded in front of you, the intimate scene between Evelyn and Danny came on and you swallowed deeply, you heard Bucky swallow just as deep, you turned your head towards him and he looked at you, you tilted your head slightly to the side and smiled at him, "how peculiar." You said looking back at the screen.

Raf eventually turned back up at Evelyn's quarters, you again sat there wide eyed at the TV, you hadn't blinked yet and you looked over at Bucky would had a smirk upon his face, "hot damn she's in a pickle." He said, "her and me both." You laughed staring back at the film. It was almost finished, Danny and Raf's plane emergency land, through suspense you grip onto Bucky's forearm, he chuckles a little, Raf is about to be shot you crouch on the sofa still attached to Bucky's arm, Danny gets shot and tears glisten your eyes, you look over to Bucky who drops his smile a little concerned, you watch the part we're Evelyn see's Raf and then the coffin, a tear drops down your cheek.

Bucky laughs and wipes it away, you study him for a second before laughing yourself, "Jesus Christ, what a mess." You laugh, he chuckles and shakes his head, "don't worry doll, you look cute.", "thanks I guess." You laughed.

As the film came to an end you and Bucky broke apart from the sofa, "night Y/L/N." Bucky said, "night Barnes." You said planting a kiss on his cheek, his right hand trailed down your arm and squeezed your hand giving you a sweet smile, you broke away and each went to your bedroom.

Bucky stayed awake most of the night, he knew he couldn't hit on his best pals girl, but they weren't actually together and he did cheat on her twice which of course he didn't approve of, Bucky knew Steve was confused about Y/N and Sharon.

Bucky looked over at the clock and noticed it was 03:00am in the morning, he got a surge of adrenaline and got out of his bed, as he got to the door he hesitated and then opened it, you were stood the other side with your hand raised ready to knock on the door, without a seconds thought Bucky pulled you in and planted a kiss on your lips, it started off a little sloppy and then you two got into it:

His hand went down to your waist and you put your hand behind his head:

You pulled away after some time and he rested his forehead on yours, you looked up through your lashes at him. "I really like you Bucky, and I understand that you don't want me to get in the way of you and Steve. But I just, I had too know for sure." You said pulling away.

Bucky stood there in silence, his adrenaline now all gone, he'd realised what he did, "I did too." He finally said, "but, this can't happen again." He added, "I know. I'm heading back to New York later tonight." You said looking down at the floor, Bucky stood there frozen, "your leaving?" He asked, you nodded your head, "why?" He asked, "because I can't be the reason you and Steve fall out. You need him way more than you need me. Your in a good place, even Shuri said so, you'll be okay. I wouldn't be going if I didn't think you'd be okay." You whispered too him.

Bucky's mind drifted back, he needed to make sense of what you were saying, "I need to see Shuri." Bucky said, "she's waiting for you. Your stronger than you now Buck, give yourself some credit." You said walking away, 'I don't know if I'm strong without you.' He whispered.
