Everyone wants Winter Sharpe and Bucky Barnes to find love within one another, especially their families...well, besides Winter's sister. 

What happens when Bucky steps in, saving his best friend, Winter,  from an overbearing man child? The one thing he can immediately think of, threaten him for trying to make a move on 'his girl'. What happens when that one threat turns out to follow them home?

It should be easy, pretend to date your childhood best friend without falling in love. It'll get their parents off their backs, but will also create enemies, especially when it turns out that they were playing the game a little too well, that it begins to create a rift of jealousy between the two. 

The pair will begin to start their own game. 

How long will it take for them to figure out that they love each other?

Will they be able to salvage their friendship and become something more?

"Life is fifty wrong turns down a bumpy road. All you can hope is that you end up somewhere nice." - Punk 57 *I don't own any of the characters except the OCs. Melanie Lovett was a former CIA Agent. She decided it wasn't in the cards for her to keep doing something that didn't bring her joy. She was recruited by Tony Stark, due to her exemplary credentials, to be Morgan's nanny. Melanie decided to take the job on because it was something different and new. She didn't know that's where she would meet James Buchanan Barnes. The man who loved bumping heads with her at any chance he got. The man who killed her father when she was thirteen years old. She hated him ... almost as much as she wanted him. ‼️ Sort of Dark!Bucky in the beginning so if you're not into that then this story might not be for you. ‼️ 〰️ "Why would she be afraid of you?" Nat asked. Something in her tone had changed but I didn't know what it was. "I don't know. I just met her yesterday," I shrugged. "Hm. Well ... I'm gonna go get suited up. See ya," she ran off. What the hell? Some thing wasn't right. She was hiding something. Something about Melanie ... and I was going to find out. She was lying about something. Violence was why I existed. It was who I was. To dominate and submit all those around me. I was a tool, a monster, an enforcer. I'd done it all because it's all I'd known. All I was taught. Somewhere inside I could still feel it. Even after getting the words out. That dark sinister part of me was still there. The caged soldier inside. Something about Melanie would make it come out. Maybe because she might've also had a caged animal inside. I itched to let it out. To let them play. 〰️ Tropes found in book: Enemies to Lovers Grumpy x Sunshine Fake Dating Bodyguard He falls first.
