SERIES SUMMARY. you’re friends, you and bucky, that’s it. your relationship revolving around a mutual connection: he’s the best friend, to your best friend’s husband. after a bad evening, he invites you back to his and you realise the mistake you made — seeing how different your life could’ve been if you weren’t a coward.
DISCLAIMERS. reader is in a shitty relationship. he’s described as abusive and controlling, though he never makes an appearance, nor are there explicit details described about his behaviour (its all implied, other than texts & mentions of him not liking the reader being out) it’s set between fatws & brave new world?? (he's not in congress yet) was originally gonna make readers besties husband sam, but I wrote something that slightly resembled steve so I went with it. it’s fanfic, we don’t care about canon so steve is alive. no use of y/n. the reader is a blank, faceless, nameless character. no physical attributes of her are described (other than her being able bodied)
NOTES. abandoned the original plans for the limerence series, but made this and im far far happier with the outcome. am open to writing additional parts, assuming people like it and are interested in more. but for now just these two🖤

PART ONE: TORPE
summary — your friends don’t take well to your new relationship, their thoughts of your new man coming out during bar night. like an intervention, they pile on you all at once about how terrible he is and how you should leave him. your best friend avery, her husband steve and his best friend bucky all sharing their concerns about your relationship. secrets spill and falling outs ensue and you soon find yourself in an apartment that’s not yours — your place occupied with a man you had no interest in returning to 4.6k words
PART TWO: USTULATION 18+
summary — it was unplanned, for bucky to sleep beside you last night. but when he wakes from a nightmare, he finds himself relieved; almost thankful to not have to go through the aftermath of a night terror alone. and over the course of your comforting, something follows that was even less planned. #poundtown 7k words
warnings - 18+ readers only! minimal plot, literally all porn, comfort (bucky has a nightmare) so much want that it's actually crazy, morning breath doesn't exist here, tonnes of kissing, loads of eye contact (what freaks) emotional vulnerability, hands hands hands, pussy play (kinda) finger licking, protected pinv, missionary (my love) to cradling to cradling plus, then back to missionary, general filth.

PART THREE: POLTROON
summary — you've been a coward. and rather than facing your fears —feelings— you run. scampering away to your friend's for refuge. only she wants no part, she can't stand to see you make mistake after mistake. it seems she knows more about what you want than you do
PART FOUR: ACCISMUS
summary — even with the help of your friends, neither of you can seem to get it right. this part is in bucky's pov - sharing the dual events from the part before
Synopsis: Sehun only wants to be loved, but what extent will he go to so that he can get what he wants?
