Hockey season isn't just a game in the Avengers compound-it's tradition, war, and love, all wrapped up in jerseys, beer, and shouting matches.
Everyone's got their team. Everyone's got their stakes. But no one's story is more complicated than Bucky and Y/N's-two people tangled in something that's not quite a relationship, but too much to be just friends.
As the playoffs heat up, so do feelings. Smack talk turns flirtatious. Bets get personal. And the pressure of the final game might just push them to finally face the truth they've been skating around: that maybe, just maybe, it's time to stop being almost lovers and become something real.
It's game on-for love, pride, and the Stanley Cup.

Each of them carried a version of love they never believed they'd deserve. And when the world stopped asking them to survive, they gave each other something gentler: a love that stayed.

The Bartons (C. Barton & L. Barton)
WARNING: This story contains a relationship between three people! Clint and Laura Barton had decided to stay to themselves after the fight between Captain America and Iron Man. Clint wanted time with his family, and that was something he didn't get very often. When Thor's sister gets casted down from Asgard and stripped of her Asgardian abilities because she refused to marry someone her father wanted her to marry, Natasha sends her to the one person she knew could help watch over the girl. Clint and Laura take in the newly mortal Asgardian princess, and let her start to become accustomed to the Midgard life. Over that time though, Clint and Laura began to feel a connection to the beautiful blonde. She was strong-willed, smart, and brave. She was someone they both admired, and someone they both found to be extremely beautiful. The two hadn't expected to fall in love with her... Note: This is my first story like this, so it will most likely be a story on the shorter side.Complete
