Bucky waking up in the middle of the night because he feels an empty space in the bed and sees that John is not there. So he walks to the tower's kitchen and sees John in the kitchen making himself something to drink. So he stands at the entrance.
"John, it's 4 in the morning, what are you doing?" And Bucky could ask him to go back to bed, he knows John would obey him, but he doesn't do it because he knows that's probably the last place he wants to be at that moment.
"Would you believe me if I said I was making breakfast?" John joked, trying to hide what was happening to him, as always. Bucky could ask him what's wrong, to talk to him, but he knows he would only get his typical "I'm fine" shitty response. So Bucky simply approaches Walker, wrapping both arms around his waist as he hugs him and rests his face against his warm, freckled back, giving John time to tell him what's going on.
"Nightmares. That's all, I promise." It wouldn't be the first time that happened; Bucky understood perfectly what it was like to be tormented at night by your own mind.
"Do you want to talk about it?"
"No. It's nothing, Buck, I promise."
And Bucky sighs, but he doesn't insist, as he knows how stubborn his boyfriend can be when it comes to saying things, and honestly, he doesn't feel like arguing with John at the damn 4 in the morning. So he simply rubs his cheek against the man's shoulder and rests his chin there. "Okay, but you know you can always talk to me, right?" he kisses his shoulder.
"I will always be here for you and listen to you, you're not alone, John. You have me and I have you," while John sighs at the sight of that genuine, soft, and pure smile on Bucky's face and thinks, "Damn, how did I get so lucky to win the heart and love of this incredible man?" Since John often feels he doesn't deserve it.
So finally, John would open up to Bucky while they both have a cup of tea and toast, enjoying each other's company in the quiet and serenity of the tower's dining room in the middle of the night.
