Congressmanbarnes Stories

She picked him deliberately. Someone who knew what it meant to carry a legacy that wasn't his own. Someone who had been used, broken, and rebuilt more times than anyone deserved. She admired him, in a way. And she knew, if danger ever found its way to his office door, she could stop it before it got close. She never expected to care. But with each late night debrief, each glance across the office when he smiled at something dumb she said, each silent understanding they shared without words-Quinn began to forget she wasn't meant to have a life like this. That she wasn't built for normal. Until a threat forced her hand. Until someone from the past recognized her. Until Bucky found out.

Congressman Barnes, past howling commando, brainwashed assassin, and current emotional trainwreck. Anastasia Barrett, grew up learning how to take care of herself quietly. Now, however, she was loud, bright, and chirpy. Everything Bucky found annoying. But he had to swallow his pride. She was going to be his assistant, going to be with him 24/7. Every day of the week. Every late night, every interruption to let him know he had more messages on the answering machine. She grated on his nerves, he got on hers. It was mutual destruction. Who was going to burn first?

Clara Bodellie was born to be a lawyer. She'd spent her childhood in heated debates with boys with no teeth. Her nights were spent rewatching Legally Blonde over and over every law book she could get her hands on. The only issue? Being in law school isn't easy, and she needs a job. Bad. Bucky Barnes was nearly a Congressman, just a few more months of convincing the public to like him until they either voted for him or not. And for once, Bucky had to try to be likable. The problem was that he was struggling. Enormously. All of his notes were disorganized and he spent a good amount of every interview staring into space, sprouting filler words as if they were his second language. That was what prodded him to post an advert looking for an assistant, hoping for someone, ANYONE to come and save him and his career before it even starts. He needs someone to tell him what to do, someone to show him how to live this new life without completely embarrassing himself. It's almost fate that the ad falls into Clara's hands, but the lucky thing wasn't that she got it... It was that she was all too happy to help.

Bucky isn't sure when this campaign stopped being about winning, and started being about spending time with you.
