Dark! Cheating! Bucky x Reader
This is a drabble
Warning: Cheating
I wanted to break my own heart when I wrote this. I can’t say I was Wholly successful, but it stung a bit.
Life can be so unfair, and at the moment, it felt like it was being especially cruel to you.
You and Bucky had met at your local bookstore. It was a small space with a decent collection, being susceptible to carrying more rare literature. He had been looking at a classic, pride, and prejudice when you caught his attention; from there, it had been history.
You’d never expected to get the attention of an Avenger, but here you were, living out your happiest days with him. You were living together in a beautiful home in no time and had gotten married even sooner.
Things started going downhill when you were told that the likelihood of you having a baby was less than 20%. You and Bucky had been trying for so long, and the longer you tried, the more of a failure you felt like.
Bucky tried his best to be supportive through all the expensive fertility treatments, pills, and special teas, but you could tell it was getting to him, as he wanted a baby just as badly if not more than you.
He was starting to get a bit more impatient and short with you, and you felt that you couldn’t blame him, he must have felt so unlucky to have gotten stuck in such a situation.
During these more tumultuous times in your relationship, your sister Lily's ex had broken up with her and kicked her out of their apartment, leaving her to be homeless. You found her on your doorstep looking for a place to stay, opting out of living with your parents because she thought living with you would mean more freedom.
Your sister had always been spoiled by everyone around her, your parents definitely had their preferences when it came to her, and you had to accept that at a pretty young age, not to mention the partners that had left you hoping to have a chance with her.
So, of course, you were reluctant about letting her stay with you, your parents had tried to convince you to let her stay with you, and it wasn’t until Bucky confronted you and insisted that you allowed her to stay.
At first, you would barely see her during her stay, but soon she started staying home more often, opting to wear more skimpy outfits, especially around Bucky. You told her to stop, but both she and Bucky called you insecure.
The whole situation just made you sick to your stomach, giving you constant nausea. But you couldn't prove anything, so you kept your mouth shut.
Until…
You’re woken up in the middle of the night by your husband's moaning and your sister's squeaks. You knew what to expect when you peeked out to the living room from the top of the stairs, but that didn’t mean you were ready for it. Your heart shattered into a million pieces as you watched your husband fuck himself into your sister, both as naked as they could get.
You quietly rushed back to the bedroom you shared with your husband, pushing into the master bedroom and emptying the contents of your stomach into the toilet.
Usually, you would sleep like the dead, the fertility medication you took made sure of that, but you had been feeling so sick, and since you and Bucky hadn’t been having sex anyways, you decided against it.
You sat on the edge of your bed, listening to them finish their activities, and before you know it, Bucky walked it, shock etched on his face as he didn’t expect you to be up.
“Did you have fun?” you asked.
He scrunched his brows. “She’s Pregnant,”
You let out a broken exhale “ How could you do this to me?”
“I don’t need some broken wife who can’t even give me a kid, you can go ahead and take all the magic pills you want, but you know better than anyone else that it’s not going to work,”
You sob.
Why was he upset with you, as if you’d done something wrong?
He lets out an annoyed sigh and walks out of the room, it isn’t long until you hear the noises again that you realize that he never cared for you.
The next morning your sister comes in apologizing, and anger fills your veins as you tell her to fuck off. Bucky comes to her defense, and you feel so overwhelmed that you just leave.
You stay with your parents for a while, and after a few weeks, they decide to have an intervention with you, your sister, and Bucky.
They made it seem like you were the problem and were getting in the way of Bucky and your sister’s relationship.
Not once did anyone acknowledge how they screwed you over, how your heart was broken into a million pieces because two people you thought loved you had betrayed you in the worst possible way.
No one cared about how you felt, and you were sick of it. Your blood began to boil, your nausea hadn’t improved since you left the house, and if anything, it seemed to worsen with the intervention. So you decided that while your family tried to convince you to be ok with such a fucked up situation, now was the perfect time to go to the clinic.
You got up in the middle of your mother's speech and walked out.
It was that day that you found out that you were pregnant.
When you left the clinic, you had the thought to tell everyone the good news, and for a moment, you were elated. This was a result you’d been hoping to hear for the longest, but then reality hit you all at once with a single text from your mother.
‘If you can’t learn to be a family, don’t bother coming back.’
You had cried in your car for hours.
You thought of having an abortion, but you wanted a baby, and with only a 20% chance of conception, there was no telling if you’d ever get another chance like this again.
What were you going to do?
What could you do?
Should I turn this into a full-blown fic??
Yes
No
Maybe
