Summary: Reader found out she’s pregnant and Bucky is to busy to hear the important news from his soon to be wife. (I suck at summaries sorry)
A/N: @caplansteverogers, thank you for letting me be a part of your fluffy challenge. If you want to be tagged let me know and feedback is appreciated! Please don’t mind any mistakes, I skimmed through this so its kinda unedited.
“What the hell?” you said as you threw up again for the past two weeks. Wanda was rubbing your back lovingly.
“Are you sick hun? Maybe you shouldn’t go on the mission (Y/N) this month. We don’t want you to get worse.” Nat said, well demanded.
“Natasha is right (Y/N). Just relax for a few weeks and see if you get any better.” Wanda said as she helped you up from the floor. You sighed and nodded.
“Fine I’ll stay here and binge watch Stranger Things...again.” you said in defeat as you walked to the living room with the two girls behind you. You sat down on the couch and grabbed the blanket that was resting on the back of the couch and wrapped it around your body. Nat sat down next to you while Wanda brought you a glass of water. “So who’s going on the mission with you guys?” you asked the two.
Nat and Wanda looked at each other. “Well Steve, Tony, Vision, and Bucky.” You looked at them in shock.
“What? Bucky never told me he was going on the mission.” you said aloud. The two girls looked at each other then back to you. They both shrugged and got up from their positions.
“(Y/N) just relax for a while. I promise we will let you know if anything bad happens during the mission.” Natasha said. Wanda nodded and gave you a small hug and the two walked back towards their rooms. You sighed and turned on the television to distract your mind a bit.
As everyone was about to leave, Bucky walked up to the couch where you were laying down. He looked over at your state seeing you all wrapped up in a giant blanket scrolling through your phone while the tv was making noise. He tapped your shoulder and smiled at you. You were at the brink of falling asleep, but Bucky had to wake to up. He walked around the couch and in front of you and smiled. You sat up and looked at Bucky.
Bucky sighed and said “The girls told me that you can’t come to the mission with us.” You nodded and looked down sadly.
“You better come back in one piece Bucky or I swear I will get Hulk to beat you senselessly.” You threatened. Bucky laughed and kissed your forehead.
“I promise I’ll be back with no scratches or bruises.” He said purely as he looked into your eyes. You nodded and pecked his lips and as you drew away he grabbed the back of your head and deepened the kiss. As the kiss deepened Bucky pushed you both down on the couch with him on top of you. Right when it was about to get heated you both heard “Alright Buckaroo, you ready to go-oh!” You both drew apart and looked over at Tony.
Tony covered his eyes and said wiggling his eyebrows “I hope I didn’t interrupt anything.” Bucky looked at you with sorry eyes and sighed with his head down.
“I’ll be ready in a minute Tony.” Bucky said in defeat. As Tony began to walk away Bucky got off of you and kneeled in front of you. “Babe I promise I’ll be back before you know it.” he smiled as he whispered in your ear. You nodded and kissed him passionately for the last time this month. As he withdrew with the rest of the crew to go to the mission you waved as the quinjet descended.
*Present*
“Bucky, you said you would be back in a month.” you reminded looking at your phone to see your boyfriend’s face.
“I know doll, but Tony thinks we need T’challa’s help for the mission so we are stopping by in Wakanda.” he replied sadly. You frowned as you both heard Natasha requesting for everyone to meet with Tony. “ I gotta go now doll there’s a meeting that’s happening. I’ll call you back later ok? Love you.”
As you were about to reply back the call lost its signal. You sighed and walked out of your room to the kitchen. You were having an ungodly cravings for the past two months. For lunch you wanted pizza with peanut butter, pickles, M&M’s and caramel sauce on top. You put the frozen cheese pizza in the oven and looked for the other ingredients in the pantry. As you finished preparing your lunch Bruce walked into the kitchen. He looked in the fridge and got a bottle of water. As you began eating Bruce looked in your direction. He stared at your pizza with a questionable and disgusted face.
“Umm (Y/N)? Whacha got there?” he said kindly.
With your mouth stuffed you replied, “Pizza” looking at him in concern. “Why? Do you want some?” you offered. He quickly shook his head no.
“(Y/N) you’ve been having these weird cravings for a while now right?” he asked you and you nodded agreeing with his statement. “Are you still throwing up?” he asked another question. You thought for a bit and shook your head no. “Why don’t you come with me to the lab. I have a theory on your health.” You sighed and followed him while bringing your entire pizza with you. As you both entered the lab you sat down on the exam table. He attached some wires all over your body connecting it to his computer. After a few tests and 5 more slices of pizza he got the results. “Well my theory was right (Y/N).”
“Well spit it out what is it?” you asked sternly.
“You’re pregnant.” he said quietly at first.
“Speak up Banner I couldn’t hear you.” you yelled at the scientist.
“You’re pregnant (Y/N)!” he said with a smiled.
“Holy shit. I gotta call Bucky” you whispered. “Um, I’m gonna lay down for a but Bruce.” you said to him and he nodded understandingly. You walked out of the lab and back to your room. You went on your computer to video chat your boyfriend. As it rang and rang your mind was spiraling. He never answered. “Probably he’s really busy? I’ll call back later.” you said to yourself. You gave up on calling a grew tired. Slowly your eyes began to flutter close and your consciousness began to drift as you fell asleep.
*Later that evening*
The crew had came back just before supper. They were all tired and sat down in the dining table as they began to eat Chinese food. You had just woken up and walked to the dining area to see everyone there eating. You walked up to Bucky and kissed his cheek. “I’m glad you back safe and sound Bucky. I have some important news to tell you.” you whispered in his ear.
Bucky replied with “Doll can this wait until tomorrow? I’m really beat wit the trip back. I need some rest.” You nodded and both exited the dining room saying good night to everyone. As walked with back to your room with Bucky, you went to the bathroom to take a quick shower and he began to change out of his clothes. As you finished cleaning yourself you saw Bucky asleep on your bed. You walked over to the bed and laid next to Bucky with both your hands on your stomach smiling small.
*The next day*
When you woke up the space next to you was empty. You huffed and got out of bed to find you boyfriend. You entered the kitchen and found him there with Sam and Steve. They were all having breakfast with one another.
“Bucky I need to talk to you about something.” you said to him.
“(Y/N), the guys and I are about to go for a run. Can you tell me when I get back.” he said in a rush as the three men were close to exiting the kitchen.
You groaned in defeat, “Fine.” You watched as the three left the building.
“(Y/N) is everything fine?” Tony asked.
“Yeah, peachy just fucking peachy, Tony. Thanks for asking.” you said sarcastically while also yelling at him at the same time. You got an entire box of donuts that was laying on the counter and pop tarts and stormed off to your room.Tony just stood there speechless.
*Later*
Bucky and the boys were back and everyone was in the dining area. Wanda and Vision was making everyone lunch. Everyone was in a seat talking to one another as you walking in. You walked towards Bucky as he was talking to Steve.
“Bucky, I really need to talk to you.” you said sternly. You were pissed he’s been putting you off and you should be pissed. You were pissed to the max because of your hormones.
“Doll, Steve and I were just about to go train. Just tell me later ok?” he said as he began to stand up from his spot.
“Buck-” you started.
“Doll, just tell me later.” he interrupted you.
“But-” you replied.
“(Y/N), later” he again interrupted. Oh now you had it. You were in rage.
“I’M FUCKING PREGNANT!” you yelled. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at you.
“What?” Bucky asked.
“I’m pregnant.” you said hushed looking at him.
“How long?” he asked another question.
“About 2 months.” you replied.
“Holy shit.” you heard from behind you.
“Buck, I think now’s a good time.” Steve said to his friend. You looked at Steve questionably then at Bucky. Bucky nodded and then got on one knee.
“Oh fuck.” you said. Bucky pulled out a small black box and opened it. Inside was the most beautiful diamond ring you ever saw in your life. “Bucky, before you fucking say anything. You better not be marrying be because of this baby.”
He scoffed, “The baby completely brand-new news to me, but I want this (Y/N). I’ve known you for a while now and we’ve been dating for years. I think you are the most beautiful and caring woman in the world. You helped me through my darkest times and were there for me when I had nobody. You are the light of my life and bring me joy. (Y/N), I would be honored if you called me your husband and you my wife. Also to be the father to our child. Wait the baby is mine right? I don’t have to beat someone up.”
You laughed and scoffed, “You’re the father Bucky.”
He smiled. “So (Y/N) will you marry me?” he asked.
“No.” you said with a straight face and everyone gasped. Bucky’s face fell and just when he was about to get up you stopped him. “I’m fucking kidding Bucky. Of course I will marry you!” You grabbed him and kissed him deeply. Everyone was cheering for the two of you. You both drew apart smiling. Everyone was wishing you all congratulations.
“Wait, do you guys want to hear your baby’s heartbeat?” Bruce asked. You both nodded and everyone said yes in excitement. You all went to the lab and Bruce prepared the equipment. You all heard a faint thumping. A heartbeat. Bruce showed the ultrasound on the screen to everyone. There was two blobs.
“Oh my god. Is that what I think it is?” Natasha asked. Bruce nodded.
“You guys are having twins.” Bruce said as he smiled.
Everyone cheered and you and Bucky looked at each other in astonishment. “Wow I’m having twins.” you said to yourself smiling at Bucky.
AWW HOW CUTE RIGHT? I tried very very hard on this guys. This took me days DAYS to write (I suck at fluffy writing), but I hope this was good. Like always let me know if you wanna be tagged and if you liked this. Feedback is always makes me happy. :D

Word Count: 642
Warnings: Kissing, stalking –though Peggy is worried and curious about what is going on with them –and swearing I think
A/N: For @caplansteverogers Fluffy Challenge. Sentence prompt 37. “Kiss me.” with Peggy Carter.
Masterlist
Peggy carefully stalked Agent Daniel Sousa and Agent Jack Thompson down the streets of New York.
David and Agent Thompson have been disappearing together and random times. After a meeting, in the middle of the day, coffee run, and –you get it. Always one left the room and the other shortly after, but never together. Peggy couldn’t figure out what was going on with them and it was driving her nuts.
Jarvis thought maybe she was over reacting. Peggy was sure she wasn’t, it just was… they were acting peculiar and she was going to find out why.
They were going into the movie theater.
Peggy followed cautiously, taking a seat in the back. From her seat, she could see the rest of the people in the movie theater. Munching on her popcorn, Peggy watched the cartoon. One eye on the movie and one on the duo.
This made her think of a date.
The thought made her just about choke on her popcorn. Peggy couldn’t believe it took so long, the two possibilities are either, they were friends and enjoyed going to the movies as a friendly activity or they were on a date, but pretending to not be on a date! She spat out her popcorn, coughing.
Peggy could understand why Daniel had not told her that he was interested in men. It’s not like she told him that she was interested in both women and men.
Shit! They –along with a good amount of people –were turning to see the commotion. Glancing around, the closest person to her was a woman a seat away.
“Quick,” Peggy whispered to the woman. Leaning across the seat separating the two, she continued, “Kiss me.”
Shocked, the woman pointed her finger to her chest, not comprehending what Peggy asked. Peggy nodded urgently.
Shrugging, the woman –who was wearing slacks and a button down and her hair was short, could be accidently be mistaken for a man –met Peggy in the middle of the seat. Tilting her head, their lips met, her eyes fluttered closed.
The woman leaned into the kiss, nipping Peggy’s lip and grasping it with her teeth, pulling it. Peggy let out a small moan, the woman was an incredible kisser.
Pulling back the women panted, they got a few cat calls from others in the theater, but for the most part the other people went back to watching the movie.
“Well, that wasn’t something I expected to happen,” the woman commented, catching her breath.
“Honestly, I don’t think I’ve seen such an attractive woman. Would it be possible to see you again?” Peggy asked, genuinely wanting to know.
The woman stared, her mouth gaping. Seemingly snapping out of her stupor, “I’d love to see you again. I’m Y/N. What’s your name, miss?”
Smiling, “I’m Peggy. Your name is beautiful.”
Peggy enjoyed seeing the flush on Y/N’s cheeks.
“So, is yours. Uh, may I sit next to you?”
“Sure, love,” Peggy answered, offering her popcorn. Y/N hopped into the seat next to her.
“So, who are you spying on anyways?”
Peggy gave she a shocked looked.
Shrugging, Y/N answered, “You keep on glancing away from the movie. You must be watching them, plus you did ask a complete stranger to kiss you when everyone was looking. Were you trying to make them jealous?”
“No, I was trying to keep them from knowing that I was here.”
Shrugging one shoulder, Y/N accepted the answer as she grabbed a handful of Peggy’s popcorn.
Prompt: “There’s nothing about you that I would change.”

Pairings: Bucky x reader
A/N: This is for Caplan’s Fluffy Challenge @caplansteverogers This is my first fic so please be kind. I was inspired by the song Him & I by Halsey and G. Easy- if you haven’t heard it seriously go check it out. Once again thanks to @chaosinacoffeecup for being my vigilant beta!
You blinked sleepily, adjusting to the ray of light shining through the curtains of your bedroom. It was only 6:30am, but Brooklyn was already bustling with the noise of a warm Spring morning. You stretched, disappointed your space heater of a boyfriend wasn’t there when you woke up. Looking over to your bedside table you spotted a note:
Good Morning Dollface-
Sorry I’m not keeping you warm this morning, I promised to meet up with a certain punk and his bird brained friend for a morning run. Yes I know, it’s Saturday and our favorite coffee shop has snickerdoodle muffins today- I’ll be sure to bring you one home.
See you soon xoxo,
Bucky
You chuckled at his nickname for Sam, grinning at his memory of your favorite muffins. It was a tradition of yours to have breakfast together whenever Buck came over and spent the night. You decided to shower and plan your day before your soldier returned home.
When Bucky entered the apartment, you were curled up on the couch reading a book in his gray hoodie under a plush blanket he’d gotten you for Christmas. He’d written on the gift tag, ‘for when I’m not here to keep you warm’. He smirked at the image in front of him- your brows were furrowed, clearly unhappy with whatever was happening in the fictional world before you. You had wrapped yourself into an almost burrito like shape, only your face exposed and your nose buried deep in the book.
“What’s got that pretty little face in such a crease?”
“Hmmm?” You glanced up from your book, temporarily tearing yourself from the trance it placed you in. “Oh hey babe, when did you get back?”
“Just a minute ago, I didn’t want to interrupt your reading- you looked so focused.” Bucky chuckled as he walked over to your kitchen table, breakfast in hand.
“Were you checking me out Barnes?”
“Guilty as charged, doll. As promised, I brought you a Mocha Latte and a snickerdoodle muffin— and before you ask, yes I bought a chocolate extreme muffin too. But you bet your ass you’re sharing that one with me.”
“You’re too sweet to me, Bucky Barnes.” You placed a quick kiss to his cheek before joining him at the table.
“Anything for my best girl.”
———
You and Bucky had finished breakfast and were lounging together on the couch. Your feet were in his lap, his were perched on the coffee table.
“What’s the plan for today sweet cheeks?” You asked Bucky with a smirk.
“I thought you were sweet cheeks?”
“What can I say? You’ve got some pretty sweet cheeks, Sergeant Barnes.” You giggled at your own joke as Bucky playfully rolled his eyes at you.
“Well, I won’t be leaving on that mission for another two days so it looks like I’m all yours sweet cheeks.” The super soldier batted his lashes at you as he elongated the nickname.
You sat up and lunged for his middle, tickling his sides and behind his neck. The fight was on! Bucky grabbed a throw pillow and jokingly whacked you with it. You grabbed the pillow behind you and blocked his next blow. The living room filled with roaring laughter until you finally held up your pillow in mock-surrender.
“Okay! Okay! I can’t breathe! No more!” You huffed out a laugh as Bucky pulled you close to him.
“Since we’ve got all day together, ya wanna watch some more of that Doctor Who show we watched last weekend?”
“James Buchanan Barnes, when have I ever turned down a Doctor Who marathon?”
“Uhhhhh…”
“Never. The answer is never. Fuck yeah, I’d like to watch Doctor Who with you! I have popcorn and candy and we can snuggle in bed and start the next season!” You were practically jumping up and down at the prospects of tv and snuggles with your favorite super soldier.
———
After a couple of hours of watching television, inspiration struck you. You had the sudden urge to sketch Bucky while you watched the infamous episode Angels Take Manhanttan. Currently you were trying to capture his face, becoming frustrated with his curtain of chestnut hair hiding him from your view.
“Ya know, Stevie used to make the same face whenever he’d try to draw me.”
“It’s so hard to sketch your face when your luscious locks are in the way.” You huffed in annoyance at his perfect coif.
“Did you just say I had luscious locks?”
“Yes Buck, your hair is extremely enviable. But right now it’s in the way and it needs to move.” With another huff you sat up, taking the hair tie you always kept on your wrist and twisted Bucky’s hair into a low bun at the nape of his neck. You sat back appreciating your work, “There, much better.”
“All you had to do was ask, doll.”
You placed a finger on your soldiers lips, “Shhh, pay attention. This part is important.” As Bucky blew out an exaggerated sigh, you reflexively shoved a handful of popcorn in his mouth, shutting him up.
Bucky was shifting in his seat, his metal appendage whirring as he tapped his fingers against his thigh. “Doll, can I ask you something?”
“Of course love, what is it?” You paused the television and faced him.
“Would you like me more if I didn’t have this thing for an arm?” Bucky looked down at his arm, seemingly disgusted with it as he clenched his left fist.
You knew your answer immediately. “Absolutely fucking not. Without that arm- Hell, without the useless pieces of human protoplasm formerly known as Hydra- you’d be dead. I would never have spilled a steaming hot caramel latte all over your favorite shirt. I wouldn’t have gone to that same damn coffee shop four days in a row, desperate to see you again. We wouldn’t have gone to the little Italian place down the street for our first date. I wouldn’t have you in my arms right now. You’d be long gone and I’d be living alone eating a carton of fucking Ben and Jerry’s, crying while I watch Doctor Who for the gazillionth time.”
“Doll, you still do th—” You grabbed him by the shirt and pressed your lips to his.
“I love you, James Buchanan Barnes. All of you. There’s nothing about you that I would change.” You joined his left hand with yours and kissed his cool knuckles.
“Did you just? Y-you you love me?”
“Cross my heart, hope to die. I love you Bucky, so fucking much.”
“I’ve waited a lifetime to hear you say that to me, doll. I love you too.”
A/N: It’s a fluffy competition from @caplansteverogers! (Everyone should read her mobster fics, by the way; AMAZING) Anyway, I’ve got a few more challenges to submit in (because to be honest, I love challenges) and then I’ll start making my own little drabbles and such. Enjoy! ~
MASTERLIST
It was almost funny to you. Standing on the roof of an apartment complex with Spider-Man, watching the moon shine with the city lights and it’s beeping cars and cursing New Yorkers.
You had found yourself standing before the edge of the roof to get a better view of the streets and the lights while Peter had his arms around you, his mask less face buried into your neck, enjoying your company before he had to go off on patrol again.
“It’s so surreal from up here.” You whisper, bringing your messy hair over your shoulder and feeling it billow in the wind.
Peter hums into your neck, making you smile. “You’re surreal.” He whispers, bringing his face up to look at you.
“You’re a nerd,” You laugh, bringing your attention to a woman waiting impatiently for the light on the crosswalk to turn white.
“I’m in love with you,” He says, pressing a kiss to your neck.
You hum in agreement and continue watching, before pulling away from the hero and bringing yourself up the edge with a small grunt.
Peter’s eyes widen in surprise, “What’re you doing?”
You steady yourself and stand up slowly with a small, self satisfied smile. “(Y/n)!”
He exclaims, already beside you on the ledge, his hands ready to catch you if you fall.
You grin, “I’m not gonna fall,” You tuck his mask you had in your hands into your back pocket.
“(Y/n), you should get down,” He says, still holding his arms out to catch you.
You give into his pleas with huff and move to hop back onto the roof when something flies past your face, startling you and making you lose your balance.
You scream in fear, and squeeze your eyes shut, hearing Peter shout. There’s the horrifying sensation of falling and you feel the anticipation of a fatal crash, when the hit comes too soon. You don’t realize you’d been screaming the whole time until Peter shushes you, holding you tightly, his hands fisted in your sweater, breathing just as hard as you.
“What-What-Who-I-Peter-” You stutter, gasping into his suit.
“(Y/n), it’s okay, it’s okay, I’ve got you, (Y/n), it’s alright,” He whispers into your ear, and you hear a flutter of wings and pull away to see what scared you.
You shriek again, still on edge when you see a shape in the dark and practically jump on the poor brunette.
“What is it? (Y/n), what’s-” He quickly pushes your hair out of his face and sees the small silhouette.
It’s a pigeon.
He watches it, “Babe, it’s okay,”
“What is it? It nearly killed me it-” You look at the bird and frown, trying to put the pieces together.
Peter waits and keeps an eye on your expression, “Angel?”
You snort, still clutching him tightly, “A pigeon,” You laugh, relieved.
He chuckles and holds you close, his stance firm on the ledge. “Please don’t ever take a risk like that again?” He asks.
You nod, still shaky from the adrenal rush, feeling Peter shake a bit too. “As long as you protect me from scary pigeons.” You giggle.
He rubs your back soothingly and smirks, “I will protect you.”
You smile and stand on the tips of your toes, kissing him sweetly, enjoying the small blissful moment until he pulls away, a bit disappointed.
“I’ve gotta go, I’ve gotta give in a report,”
You hum and keep a grip on him, hearing him laugh and kiss your forehead,
“(Y/n), come on, you know I can’t let Mr. Stark down.”
“Mm, okay, fine,” You sigh, letting him go, “You better come back in one piece, Parker, or-”
“-Or you’ll find my ‘Iron-Dad’ and fight his rich-ass,” He says, having heard the phrase every night he went on his rounds. He presses another kiss on your lips and takes his mask from your back pocket. “I’ll see you tomorrow morning.”
“M’kay.”
Peter slips on his mask and adjusts his eyes before turning to you, “Wanna kiss the mask?” He coos with an evident smirk.
You give him a look and he snickers, “Okay, alright,” He pulls you close one last time and nudges his nose against yours, “I love you,”
You blush furiously. This was new. He’d never said, ‘I love you,’ so easily before. You nudge him back.
He kisses you on the cheek through the mask and you realize that this boy is stalling. Blushing still, you huff, feigning impatience, “I love you too, dork, now go already before it gets too late and you end up falling asleep in class… again.”
Peter shoots a web and laughs, “I’m going, I’m going!”
And with that, he’s gone, leaving only a waft of his cologne.

You took deep breaths in the backseat of limo. No matter how hard you tried, your nerves were not calming down.
“It’s going to be ok” “it’s not a big deal” “Just breath” you kept repeating these words like a mantra.
“It’s going to be fine y/n” Happy assured you from driver’s seat.
You just gave him wary smile. You were Late, really late!
Your surgery had run longer than planned. When you were about to end your shift early to get ready, a case came through ER doors.
3.5 hours later you were able to save patients leg from amputation and you were proud.
Looking into rear view mirror understanding your discomfort Happy tried again,
“Hey, these things never start on time!” he assured
“Also it’s not like you were chilling, you’re a doctor your life is unpredictable. They’ll understand that” he reasoned with you.
No matter what he said or you told yourself, nerves couldn’t be controlled. Plus L.A traffic didn’t help.
This was going to be a big deal for both of you, it was not only Premier for multi star cast most anticipated, big budget movie but also it was your 2nd year anniversary.
Stark Studios was a big deal; their Premiers were even bigger deal. They made movies larger than life. To be offered role by them, meant you were good at your job.
They just didn’t invest if you were not talented, no matter how many fans you had or magazine covers you made.
You still remembered the day when Chief of surgery Fury paged to report to ER. You had just finished 12 hour surgery on guy’s spinal cord and legs hoping the kid will walk again.
It was not odd for you to have high profile clients in your ER or hospital for that matter. When you reached your destination you saw herds of people crowding the bed, said patient was in pain.
You saw lot of people hovering the patient and ordered them to leave you alone. Tony had literally created a scene stating that it was his responsibility to be present since the accident had happened on his film set.
It was case of stunt went wrong, actor had insisted to do the stunt on their own. A blond guy, who seemed much level headed in the situation, physically removed Tony from ER taking him to waiting area. Steve as you learnt his name later was a kind man; he was one of the big stars & friend of Tony’s.
When surgery finished you gave them update and explained the further process and follow up. Tony apologized for his earlier behavior and everything was forgotten.
Fury insisted due to high profile of client and good publicity you should be present for first couple of physiotherapy sessions.
You agreed begrudgingly, session flew in no time due to how conversations flew. It was easy to talk to them, despite being such big celebrity there was certain kindness and sweetness behind the façade.
Two sessions became four, and then you were asked out on coffee. Then Sunday brunch at finest club in L.A. Then candle light dinner on your first official date.
No stone was un-turned to sweep you off your feet, bouquets of roses, chocolates, surprise visits to hospital when you were having bad days.
You were relishing being pampered.
Then came serious talk of relationship, there is certain air that followed celebrities, their relationship never work due to their schedules. Proximity they had with fellow actors, directors & other producers as well.
You were nervous; you didn’t see it going anywhere past couple of months and now you found yourself falling for them. Then came the rumors in TMZ, magazines, You thought this was just an fling, you were someone they were not used to, something new, like a challenge, thrill of the chase.
It was one of the biggest fights in your relationship so far, and then hard questions were asked. Was this even real for both of you.
Accusations of how they felt not good enough for you, that you were embarrassed of them not being as educated as you, you trying to hide the relationship from your friends and family. Fall out happened, no calls, no messages, then came sorry cards, teddy bears, red roses, chocolates, all the shin dings.
Showing up at your door step half-drunk, completely wrecked, apologizing, crying, and your heart shattering in million pieces seeing the state they’re in. Then came the heartfelt apologies from both sides.
Ultimately ending up in your bed, naked bodies wrapped in each other’s arms, starved for touches, no words said, just actions.
Make-up sex Lot of it...
First time saying I Love You!!!
Meeting families, close friends, visiting sets, going outdoor shoots, falling into domestic bliss, coming Home to someone, the feeling of being Loved, being in love, ultimate Ecstasy, etc. Blissful two years.
Then couple of month’s back you were asked if you would want to make it official in front of the world? You are dumbfounded, social anxiety, judgment from the world, jealous fans, you worry. Try to hide your anxiety, not wanting to say wrong thing and ruin everything so you say YES!
When you agreed to make your first ever public appearance Tony went crazy. He made sure you were going to be styled & looked like a million dollar; there was a whole team of waiting for you in your office, to get you ready for this Premier!!!
All the excitement, planning, every fiber of your body telling you to run, but the LOVE, the way you felt alive past two years, the dream of future didn’t let you say what you’re actually feeling.
And here you are in the backseat of Limo, five minutes away from red carpet… Your phone dings again, and there you see series of messages all worried,
“Where are you?”
“Did you change your mind?”
Last message broke your heart and gave you all the strength you needed.
“I understand, even if you don’t make it. Remember, I Love You!”
You almost jump out of the Limo when door opens,
“Go straight from here, you’ll find them down there” Happy points to the herd of photographers.
But you don’t care, you just start looking for familiar face, manager or support staffs to guide you but you don’t see anyone. Suddenly a voice catches your attention.
“You look lost, may I be of any service to you?” the stranger asks
His Stormy blue eyes look like they can pierce your soul and you’re at loss of words. Where does Tony find these people from?
The man is wearing impeccable suit, long lock styled in man bun perfectly, flicks his cigarette and walks up to you with sly grin on his face.
You are about to decline his offer to say you’ll find your way when another tall, dark and handsome man makes his way to two of you.
He had pearly white kind smile but there was a mischievous glint in his eyes.
“Hey Buck, you’re not getting all beautiful dames tonight too” the man said winking at you,
“Give us poor blokes some chance to woo the ladies too” he says checking you out shamelessly
You were taken aback by his affront remark but the way they were playful you knew they didn’t mean any harm.
“Hey man, was just showing her way around, think she is lost” the blue eyed man says.
“Ooooh, is that so, damsel in distress, that’s perfect!” second man says.
“May I help you Princess?” he asks
‘Princess’ huh you snorted, just then you saw your date standing in front of the cameras posing.
“No, thanks!” you say
“I think I found the one I’m looking for” you answer without even looking at the men as you made your way to the red carpet.
“Damn, all the good looking ones are always taken huh?!” second man huffs
“Ten dollar’s says she is here for Tony” he says to the first man
“Nah, 20 says she is here for Steve” first man say
“He always gets all the Good Girls” he laughs
“50 dollars says you both are wrong” third a short man joins them.
“Deal” both men agree
As you made your way you could see, your date’s appearance, they were flawless, dressed to perfection.
But the smile didn’t reach to their eyes. Worry lines creased their forehead and there was a frown on their lips.
As you made your way Tony noticed and said, “Finally”
“Thought you ditched us” he accused
Steve gave you kind smile, gestured you forward.
But the brightest and happiest smile came from your date, Natasha!
She just looked at you in awe …
All worry disappearing, smiling brightly, she gave you a hand out to come near her, all your hesitation, and anxiety left your body when you saw the reassuring smile.
You took the hand and stood next to her. She gave you a peck on the lips and sweet kisses on your cheeks.
All cameras were pointed at you, photographers were calling you both to look at them, pose for them. It was sure going to be biggest news for tabloids.
She was the most private person of the cast, & to make an appearance with her girlfriend at most anticipated movie’s premier was something else.
Just then Natasha looked over your shoulder to Steve, you knew they were talking through their eyes. He just winked at her and took out a small box from his front pocket, he gave you a wide smile and kiss on the cheek as he handed over the box to Natasha.
For a moment everything stopped around you, air left your lungs when you saw what was happening.
She opened the box and said “The dress & heels make it difficult to get on one knee but if you want I’ll do it?”
You were too stunned to respond, you just looked at her wide eyed & shake your head No. She continued,
“You know I’m not good with words but still have to say that, that stunt accident was the best thing that happened to me ever, it brought you to me so it was a blessing in disguise. Last two years I have been living in paradise and I cannot imagine my life without you anymore”
“My Dearest Y/N would you please give me the honour of calling you my wife by marrying me?” she looked at you with hopeful eyes, there was a flicker of worry.
You recovered quickly and said,
“Yes”
That was enough for to diminish any doubt. She slid the ring on your finger and kissed you like never before.
Everything around you disappeared, like you two were in some kind of a bubble.
You didn’t hear co-stars making wolf howls & whistles.
Neither did you hear Clint saying “Told you, you guys were wrong. Now pay up you losers”
Neither did you hear Sam complaining “Man if all the good ones are going to be taken, we will have to marry each other” & Bucky replying “Man dibbs on Steve!”
Almost everyone laughed at Tony’s comment when he exasperated,
“Finally!!!” throwing his hands up in the air,
“Someone made honest woman out of Natasha Romanoff. Have nothing else to see now, I can die in peace” then he fainted on Steve’s shoulder.
“Tony” Steve just elbowed him giving fake annoyed look.
As you broke your kiss, you both whispered I love you. Just then everyone gathered around you and giving big group hug.
42. Would you mind if I kissed you? Bucky Barnes X Reader
Summary(which I suck at sorry): Steve finally convinces Bucky to attend one of Tony’s parties. Bucky isn’t too happy about it until he meets a woman who has a less than ordinary request. Maybe this night will be more interesting than Bucky thought.

Bucky could hear Tony wolf whistling somewhere in the background. Honestly, he would too if he could see the same sight as Tony. In that moment, Bucky had his arms around the waist of a woman whose name he didn’t even know and his lips were locked on hers. What he thought was going to be one of the most boring nights of his life had turned into some sort of romantic comedy.
It all started when Steve told him to get dressed and threw a dashing suit at him, “Tony’s throwing a party. You need to get out more Buck. The Avengers can’t be your only contacts to the outside world. It will be fun. If it gets too much, you can leave but will you at least try, please?”
Bucky rolled his eyes and got out of bed, “Fine. Only an hour.”
“That’s all I ask. Party starts in an 45 minutes.” Steve said and left Bucky to get ready.
An hour later Bucky was wandering around looking for Steve. He found him at the bar talking to Natasha and Clint.
“You’re late. But don’t worry I don’t think Tony noticed.” Natasha laughed and handed him a drink. “You clean up nice Barnes.”
Bucky took the drink and thanked her. He scanned the crowd looking for more familiar faces. Once he had spotted all his team members and even Nick Fury he looked around for anyone that would catch his eye. Steve was right, he needed to get out. There was once a time when James Barnes could get any girl he wanted without a second thought but now here he was almost too nervous to even say hello to a woman.
“Would you mind if I kissed you?” a voice pulled him out of his thoughts. He turned, noticing his friends had left to mingle, and saw a woman nervously bouncing in her heels, “I totally understand if you say no it’s just my ex is here and he’s dancing with some bimbo over there and I need to make him jealous. You’re hot so you’ll definitely make him jealous.”
Bucky followed her line of sight and saw the man she was talking about. He was probably one of Tony’s business partners seeing as Bucky had never met him meaning he wasn’t involved with the Avengers.
“Um, sure I don’t mind.” Bucky said and not a second later the unnamed woman pressed her lips to his. Out of old habit he wrapped his arms around her waist.
After a minute or so she pulled back. They both looked over to where her ex was standing with his mouth wide open.
“Thanks. Im (Y/N) by the way.”
“Bucky.”
“I know. James Buchanan Barnes, Winter Solider. Once a Hydra agent now you work with the Avengers. Best friend of Steve Rogers, Captain America.”
Bucky looked at her with a look of confusion. How did this woman know all of that?
“I’m Dr. Banner’s and Tony’s assistant. I work with them in the lab. I’m actually working on modifying your arm at the moment. We have a meeting next week so I could test a few things.”
Bucky remembered Steve had said something to him about getting work done. He didn’t see a need. His metal arm was fine. What could make it better?
“What kind of things?”
“I noticed it’s rather reflective which can be a good thing when you need to blind an enemy but can be bad if you’re trying to hide out and a light catches it. I think I’ve developed a way that you can control how reflective it is, it makes it about 1/4 inch thicker but you shouldn’t notice it. Also how do you feel about the star? I’m a fan but Tony says it looks stupid.”
“Tony’s stupid. The star is cool. Can you show me these changes now? The lab is downstairs right?”
“Yes. I’ve been looking for a reason to leave this party. It’s hard to avoid my ex when he’s always around at these things.” She took his hand and they headed to the elevator.
They made it to the lab and she typed in her access code. She flipped a few lights on and pulled up her research. “You can sit over there. I’ll go get the prototype.” She pointed to a chair before going into a closet. Bucky sat down and waited for her to reappear. Moments later she did with a prototype in hand.
“Do you mind?” (Y/N) asked and motioned toward his arm. He nodded and she slowly removed the arm. “Okay so like I said this is a prototype and it’s in the very early stages so not everything will be perfect just yet.” She explained and attached the new arm. “So if you press your pinky to your thumb twice it should change from reflective to matte. You can test it.”
Bucky did as told and was amazed when the metal did fade to a matte finish.
“See not perfect it’s on a lag. It should change in under 2 seconds. That took 16. Now it you touch this panel here,” she took his arm and touched one of the panels causing it to lift, “you can store bullets. Or I can modify it to hold knife blades.”
“No. Bullets are great. This is amazing (Y/N).” He flexed his arm, testing it out. “When will it be finished?”
“Like I said it’s in the very early stages. It will probably be another two months or so before its even ready for a field test. If theres anything you want me to add let me know.” She said absentmindedly while tinkering with parts of the arm.
“Can you make it a speaker? So I can listen to music when I run with Steve and Sam? I don’t like those earbud things Steve gave me.”
(Y/N) looked up at him with a questioning grin, “Really? Deadly assassin wants his weaponized arm to be a speaker?”
“I was joking… wait could you do it?”
“I can do anything.” She winked and laughed, “I’ll work on adding it the next prototype.” (Y/N) took the arm off and put his regular one back on. “I’ll try to have it ready by next week. This meeting actually put me ahead of schedule. You can go back to the party if you want. I’m in the zone now I don’t want to waste any time.”
“Do you mind if I stay? Steve kind of made me go to that. Said I needed to mingle. Not really my speed.”
“I hear ya. Tony made me come to this. Told me he’d fire me if I didn’t. Promised my ex wouldn’t be here but obviously we know that was a lie.”
“Sounds like you hate him? Why did you want to make him jealous if you don’t care about him?”
“I wanted to prove to him that I could do better. Prove that him being a cheating bastard wouldn’t affect me.” She shrugged and typed a few things into a computer. “I mean I wasted almost a year with him. I should have some fun now that I’m free right?”
“I suppose. I can kill him if you want.” Bucky offered while moving to stand behind her.
(Y/N) laughed and shook her head, “Nah, let’s not go that far. He’s out of my life. I’m going to focus on myself for a while. Maybe I’ll take a vacation. Or a staycation. I haven’t watched Lord of the Rings in a while and I haven’t even seen the last Hobbit. Its been out for years.”
“Is that one with the little dude that’s creepy looking? Steve said I should watch that.”
“You’re probably talking about Gollum. You should totally watch it. It’s one of my favorite movies. You can watch it with me if you want. As long as you’re not one of those people who ask questions the entire time.”
“I can’t stand those people. All your questions can be answered if you just watch the movie and shut up.”
“Exactly. I think I’m finished up here for the night. We can watch the first movie. It’s not even midnight. The movies run long so we can start tonight and finish tomorrow or the next day. I have the extended versions so it will take about 20 hours all together.”
Bucky looked at her with a shocked expression, “That can’t be healthy to watch all that in one sitting.”
“It’s not but that is the point of a vacation. You do stuff you normally don’t do. So you want to watch with me or not? I can make snacks. I think I even have some plums.” She closed down the computer and walked towards the door with Bucky following.
“Will I ever live that down?”
“Not as long as Sam Wilson is employed here. And I was kidding. Like I said vacation is when you’re unhealthy. I pride myself on my award winning brownies and I just so happen to have all the ingredients.”
By this point they were waiting at the elevator. They went in and (Y/N) hit the button for her floor.
“How do you know my floor number?”
“We live on the same floor, Bucky. Plus I told you I know a lot about you. Go change out of that suit and I’ll start making the brownies.”
Bucky nodded and headed towards his room. He took his suit off and starting digging in his drawers for something comfy. What does one wear on a staycation? He ended up picking a pair of sweats and one of his hoodies. A few minutes later, he knocked on (Y/N)’s door.
“Come in. It’s open.” He heard her call. He opened the door and walked in.
The smell of brownies hit his nose and he followed the smell to the kitchen. Her looks had done a 180, not in a bad way, just a different way. She had traded her dress and heels for a pair of athletic shorts and a tank top. Her hair was now sitting on top of her head in a bun and her make up was gone. “Brownies are cooking but I also made some popcorn and rice krispy treats because well I like them.”
“It smells amazing. How did you do all of that so quick? I was gone for like 5 minutes.”
“Try 15. I was getting worried. What you couldn’t find anything to wear?” She laughed and grabbed the two bowls of popcorn. “Can you get the plate of rice krispy treats?” She asked looking over her shoulder. Bucky nodded and picked up the plate following her to the living room.
“Brownies should be done in about 10 minutes. We can start the movie now.” She sat down and pat the cushion next to her. “Come on. Time to get educated on all things Tolkien.”
*
“She’s never late. Where is she?” Tony asked, annoyed. “I need her help. Friday where is (Y/N) (Y/L/N)?”
“You gave her the next 3 days off remember?” Bruce said without looking up.
“It was the deal you two made after you threatened to fire her if she didn’t go to the party. If she went to the party you would give her the next 3 days off.”
“Agent (Y/L/N) is in her living room with Sergeant Barnes, Sir.” Friday announced.
“What? Show me.” Tony ordered.
“Tony I’m pretty sure it’s illegal to look in on people.”
“It’s my tower I'll do what I want. Also haven't you heard of nanny cams? I’m just checking in on our precious little (Y/N). Holy shit. Would you look at that?”
Tony turned the screen to Bruce. On the screen was a live feed showing (Y/N)’s living room. Bucky and (Y/N) were cuddled up together on the couch, half eaten food everywhere, and a Lord of the Rings title screen glowing. “I mean I saw their little make out session last night but I didn’t think it would turn into a sleepover. I’ll have to have a talk with him. Don’t want her heartbroken again.”
“Leave them alone Tony. Let’s get back to work.” Bruce said turning the screen off and shoving a stack of papers to Tony. “Maybe if you spent as much time on research as you did invading peoples privacy we could actually get some work done.”
Summary: You fall ill and Bucky leaves his mission to make sure you have the best care possible.

A/N: This is my submission for @caplansteverogers fluffy challenge, my prompt was the I’m sick, come take care of me, AU! I had so much fun writing this, it’s so cute and fluffy and I hope you really enjoy all the fluff, I really needed to write this with all the stress in my life, so I hope it makes you feel good as well! Enjoy!
“You’re sure you’re going to be okay without me?” Bucky asks as he gets ready to leave for his mission with Steve.
“I’ll be fine.” You say as you pick up some things around the apartment. “Like I said, it was just a little cough this morning, I won’t get sick.”
“Well, call me if you need anything okay? I’ll be home before you know it.” He kisses your forehead and runs his hand down your arm.
“I’ll be fine Bucks, have a good mission.” You kiss him quickly on the lips before he heads out the door.
Oh god were you so wrong.
Within an hour of him leaving you felt like a full on zombie. You were hit with almost every flu symptom in the book, fever, chills, cold sweats, cough, body aches and the throwing up, and you knew you were doomed. You told yourself you weren’t going to call Bucky, you hoped that you could take care of it yourself, but you were starting to doubt that when you almost passed out trying to make yourself a cup of tea.
“Ms. Y/L/N? Are you alright, your vital signs are showing that you may be ill.” Tony had installed a program of F.R.I.D.A.Y in your apartment so that you could communicate with them and what not. “Would you like me to contact Mr. Barnes ma’am?”
“No! F.R.I.D.A.Y, I’m fine, don’t call Bucky, I don’t need him to worry.” You grab hold of the counter as another wave of nausea passes through you. The edges of your eyes begin to blacken and you close them, waiting for it to pass.
“Ma’am I recommend that you lie down, I will contact Mr. Barnes for you.” F.R.I.D.A.Y says and begins to call Bucky for you.
“Darling is everything alright?” Bucky asks when he picks up the phone.
“I’m fine!”
“Ms. Y/L/N, is experiencing several flu symptoms, her vitals are showing signs of severe dehydration, and possible fainting spells.”
“Oh my god, doll, why didn’t you call me sooner?” Bucky asks. “I’m coming home right now.”
“No Bucky, don’t I’ll be okay.” You say, flopping down on the couch as you fight a fit of coughing.
“I’m coming home, F.R.I.D.A.Y, make sure she doesn’t do anything stupid until I get home.” Bucky hangs up the phone and tells the quinjet pilot to take him back home.
You pull the covers over you as a set of chills hits you and sweat runs down your forehead. You groan as the chills feel like you are sitting in the middle of the arctic. Within the next minute you are sweating again and have to throw the covers off. Bucky was right to come home, there was no way you could do this alone.
When Bucky got back to the apartment you were sitting on the couch curled up in a blanket, straining to stay awake as you watched a cooking show on T.V to keep yourself distracted from all the pain. You wiped your nose constantly with tissues, coughing up flem every five minutes.
“Babygirl.” Bucky runs his hand over your hair and kisses your forehead.
“Bucky?” You are barely with it at all right now, your head is spinning and you feel like absolute shit, but with Bucky here you felt like things were going to be fine.
“Hey sweetheart,” He pulls the blanket up over you better and smiles at you. “Why didn’t you call sooner?”
“I didn’t want to bother you, I thought I would be okay.” You frown at him.
“Well next time just call me, you are way more important to me than some stupid mission. You look awful doll, I’m going to take your temperature.” He goes to the bathroom and grabs the thermometer. “103.2, sweetheart that’s really high, are you sure we shouldn’t be going to the base and have the doctor check you out?”
You shake your head. “I don’t want to move, they won’t be able to do anything anyway.”
Bucky runs his metal hand over your forehead and sighs. “I’m going to get you some medicine, is there anything else you need angel? I could run to the store?”
“No, please don’t go, I need you to stay with me.” You grab his metal hand. “This feels so good against my hot skin, ugh, thank god you’re here, I’m an idiot.”
“We have to get that fever down, I’m gonna get you some medicine and fluids, and I’ll be right back okay?” Bucky promises.
You let go of his arm and nod.
Bucky brings you back some pills and a glass of water and sits down next to you, putting his metal arm around you to keep you cool. “Have you eaten anything? Are you throwing up?”
“Once, I haven’t tried to eat anything, I can’t even stand the thought of food.” You almost wretch just thinking about it. “Oh god Bucky, I think I’m going to now.”
Bucky carefully picks you up and carries you to the bathroom. As you throw up Bucky holds your hair back and carefully rubs circles on your back, soothing you as you gag what little you have left in your stomach into the toilet. He kisses your cheek when you come up. “I’m sorry you have to go through this.”
“I’m just glad you’re here.”
“Of course.” Bucky smiles and takes you back into the living room, laying you down on the couch and pulling the covers up over you. “You’re going to have to try and eat sweetheart, you can’t keep throwing up stomach acid it’s not good for you.”
You groan and roll over, covering yourself with the blankets.
“I’ll get you some crackers and make some tea sweetheart.” He heads into the kitchen.
“Buuuuck.” You moan.
He rushes back into the living room. “What’s wrong?”
“I’m so cold.” You shiver.
“I’ll grab you some more blankets darling.” He rushes into the bedroom and grabs more blankets and wrapping you in them. He brings back the tea and crackers and sits down next to you, pulling you close, engulfing you in his warmth.
“Thank you.”
“You don’t have to thank me sweetheart I’m just doing my job.” He holds out a cracker for you. “Please just try to eat okay?”
You grab the cracker from him and bite at it a little, chewing slowly, it feels good to be eating something but you don’t know how long it will last. You eat a few of the crackers and sip on the tea as Bucky strokes your hair. He kisses your forehead as you snuggle close to him.
“Can I do anything to make you more comfortable, you should try to get some sleep doll.”
You press yourself closer to him as you shiver, “I’m good right here.” You say and close your eyes, trying your best to fall asleep. Thankfully Bucky was like a giant heater and it helped soothe you to sleep with how much exhaustion you were feeling it was amazing you didn’t fall asleep sooner.
Bucky had noticed that it had been a long time since you fell asleep and had FRIDAY scan your vitals and temperature. Your fever had rose to around 104 and Bucky knew that he had to get you to a doctor right away. You didn’t wake up even when he rushed you to the car and drove like a maniac to the base.
“You did the right thing bringing her here Barnes, she’s burning up, I’ll get her hooked up to some fluids and get her some influenza medication, everything should be fine in no time, so don’t worry.” Bruce says to him.
His heart was pounding, he knew he should have brought you here sooner. But you said you were fine and he wanted to believe you, and now he was so worried he thought he was going to be sick. Bucky paced through the halls as he waited for Bruce to bring him news about you. He was going out of his mind with worry and then you finally woke up.
You looked pale and drained, but alert, the fever had gone down and you were able to keep down most of the fluids Bruce had given you. “Buck?”
“Oh thank god, doll.” He rushes to your bedside and runs his hand over your hair. “Are you okay, how do you feel?”
“I’m okay.” You pull him in close with what little strength you have left and plant a kiss on his lips. “James I love you so much.”
He presses his nose to yours and smiles. “I love you too baby girl.” He runs his metal hand over your cheek.
“Now get in this bed and give me your metal arm, it’s hotter than hell in this place.” You pull him closer, keeping his metal arm against your skin.
Bucky grins and crawls into your bed with you. “I’m glad you’re okay, you had me really worried.”
“It’s all thanks to you.” You nuzzle up next to him.
“Because you’re everything to me sweetheart, and I would do anything for you.” Bucky promises you. “Now get some more rest, you’ve been through a lot.”
SUMMARY: Reader is having a stressful day at work, but when she gets home her boyfriend surprises her
WARNINGS: none
PAIRING: Bucky Barnes x Reader
WORDS: 1,071
A/N: This is for @caplansteverogers Fluffy challenge using
Y/N ran her hand over her face as she leaned back in her chair, a frustrated growl sounded from her. The numbers on the screen were giving her a headache as nothing was adding up. She sat up and sighed, picking up the phone and dialed the three digits to reach her supervisor.
“Hey Y/N,” the voice sounded.
“Jill,” she sighed, “there are a lot of discrepancies in the logs. I think we are missing some invoices or something. We have a lot of money not accounted for.” She leaned forward and rested her head in her hand. “I ran the numbers like six times, nothing is adding up.”
“Run it again Y/N, I’ll take a look to make sure everything is there,” Jill replied and hung up, bringing a groan to Y/N as she hung her head and replaced the receiver. She was ready to get back to figuring out the numbers when her phone pinged, alerting her of a message. She pinched the bridge of her nose to alleviate the pressure that was building there, but one look to see who the message was from made her smile: her boyfriend, Bucky.
Bear: Wanna meet up for lunch?
Y/N: Can’t. Numbers aren’t matching. Going to work through it, might be home late 😥
Bear: Well, damn. Do I need to let you be?
Y/N: Should. I really don’t wanna miss supper and the game.
Bear: Screw the game. Just get home when you’re done. We’ll have a night in.
The suggestion made her smile, knowing how much he loved to go see the Rangers play and that he was willing to give up hockey for her? That just proves that he was something special.
Y/N: Sure. Let’s have a sit in and watch the game from home.
Bear: I’ll let you work then. Text me when you leave so I have an idea when you get home. Love you.😙❤
Y/N: Will do. Love you, Bear.💋
Bear: You know I hate that nickname, right?
Y/N: Yep, but not going to change it.🐻
Bear: fine. Get to work.
Y/N smiled and flipped her phone over as not to get distracted by it and set to work on trying to figure out where the inconsistencies were. Nearly two hours passed when her work phone rang, startling her a bit as she was too into her head.
“Hello,” she answered tiredly, “this is Y/N Y/L/N.”
“Y/N,” Jill’s voice rang through loudly, “marketing forgot to submit five invoices that equaled out to be roughly $3,200. Does that sound like the number you were missing?”
“Yes,” Y/N rushed out, sighing with relief, “are they going to submit those today?”
“Yes, but I don’t want you to worry about it until tomorrow. I’m gonna have a meeting with George in about an hour to discuss what the hell happened and how his team thought it was okay to let it happen. Jesus, they has three months to get them in the system and we have quarter close in three days.”
“Thanks, Jill,” Y/N sighed, “Is it okay to go home early? I missed lunch and I really don’t have anything else to do until those invoices get to me.”
“Sure. We’ll see you tomorrow.”
The click of the disconnect made Y/N smile as she saved her work and bookmarked her current tasks before locking her computer. There was no thought when she pulled her coat on and pocketed her phone into her purse as she left her office, almost missing Nancy, the secretary, calling her name.
“Sorry, Nance, did you need me for something?” she smiled, but the tone of her voice proved she was tired.
“Yes, Ms. Y/L/N. These came from you but I know you don’t like getting disturbed during quarter and month end,” the black haired woman replied as she pointed to a stuffed bear with a small vase with flowers.
“Oh, thank you Nance,” she smiled and picked it up, not bothering to look for a card. Only one person ever sent her flowers with a bear, and it was the reason why she called him Bear. “I’m gone for the rest of the day, see you tomorrow.”
“Have a good night and say hi to Bucky for me,” the other woman smiled, making Y/N chuckle. She texted Bucky before she left the parking structure just like she promised and head to their apartment. The drive was a pain, she muttered curses and grumbled profanities to each person who decided to not to abide to the laws of the road.
After a half hour, she pulled into the underground parking garage of their building and parked in her spot before making her way towards the elevator. She fumbled with her keys and walked into the spacious apartment that smelled heavenly.
“Bucky?” she called, setting her keys on the small table with her purse, the bear and flowers still in the other hand. After a few more steps she could see that he had the oven on and a bottle of wine out on the island with a glass already half full. She couldn’t help but smile when she saw the vase of even more flowers: roses, lilies, and spider mums. She called for him again, hoping to hear where he was. They only had two bedroom and the living space with a small bathroom, so she went to find him, to say thank for everything. She picked up the glass of wine and in a few minutes she found him in the bedroom reading a book on the bed with headphones on. She waved and he smiled, taking off the headphones and turning off his phone.
“Hey, doll,” he smiled and got up, pulling her in so he could place a kiss on her forehead. “I made you a warm bath because I know you had a long day at work, or what probably felt like forever. Also, got lasagna in the oven, and I see you found the wine.”
Y/N smiled and wrapped her arms around his midsection, kissing him chastely on the lips. “Are you going to join me?” she chuckled as she pulled back.
“I was going to help you wash your hair, scalp massage?” he countered with a smirk.
“I would love that,” she practically moaned as she walked towards the bathroom, “give me a few minutes to get in, oh and bring the bottle.”
