Worse than Strangers | Bucky Barnes Rom-Com
Now they were as strangers; worse than strangers, for they could never become acquainted.* Bennett Mattey first saw him seven years ago in Romania when she lived abroad. The frowning man in a cap always stood out to her when she saw him every Tuesday. Once he disappeared, she all-but-forgot about him. But when she sees him in Brooklynn by chance, she begins to question who the mysterious, gloved man is. It's especially hard when it seems her roommate also has a thing for him and he doesn't seem to remember her the way she remembers him. Bucky Barnes x OC. Pre/during Falcon and the Winter Soldier. A modern comedic spin on Jane Austen's Persuasion as well as it being a Bucky Barnes fanfiction. I wanted to see what would happen when there is just a normal person in his life, and what they would observe as Bucky is healing. *Quote from Jane Austen's Persuasion.
Intoxicated
Arabelle Sinclair. Tiny but with a big personality. Only standing at 5 feet flat, she's never the center of attention. But that's okay, as she doesn't really care for the spotlight unlike others. *cough cough* Yelena *cough* . She's stuck in a relationship with a man who she doesn't love, and yet doesn't have the courage to break up with him (as he's kinda a psycho). James Buchanan Barnes. Almost the complete opposite. Dark, moody, brooding, and the hottest living thing on Earth. Tall and handsome, a bulky wallet, and always in the spotlight. And even though he hates the spotlight, being the richest man in the country gives you that spotlight anyway. He's a secretive man who's not very trusting, and puts his everything into his work. On one special night, James and Arabelle meet. And the fate of their relationship depends on how they weave their way through each of their lives. Hopefully it isn't too much to split them apart. ⚠️ TW: Abuse, Strong Language, S/A, Smut ;)Complete
