Gingerbread Hot Chocolate - Bucky/Darcy
For: @ragwitch Pairing: Bucky Barnes/Darcy Lewis Prompt: Gingerbread Hot Chocolate Rating: T
"They're going to love you, don't worry!" Darcy gushed, linking her arm through Bucky's and pulling him up the snowy walk towards her parents' home. "Anyone who makes me slow down is aces in their book, I promise!"
"You seem so sure about that, doll… but I think you're forgetting that I'm over a hundred years old and up until recently, public enemy number one." Bucky reached up to straighten the tie he'd insisted on wearing. A tie and a sweater vest and a brand new haircut. Basically, he'd told the stylist to do anything to make him not look like a hundred-year-old assassin.
Darcy shot him a look, one that warmed his heart almost to the melting point. "I think we'll be fine. It's obvious I adore you. And I'm super picky, so I think they'll overlook most of your sharp edges. Besides, they're my parents. I should know what to expect more than you, James." She punctuated by poking him square in the chest. A poke which turned into a full-palm caress of his pecs.
He caught her hand before it could go any further. "No matter who I am, I'm pretty sure your parents don't want us groping each other on their porch…" he said with a smirk, lacing their fingers and pulling her hand down between them as they continued to walk.
"We haven't rung the doorbell yet…" she reminded him. A little heat in her voice that made him go against his better judgment and slip his hand behind her head, pulling her close for an open-mouthed kiss that was extremely promising until her mother opened the door.
"I thought I heard someone out here-- oh!" Mrs. Lewis stopped in the middle of her thought and chuckled a little before pushing the door closed. "Don't mind me, just ring the bell when you're finished…"
Bucky's face blazed red with embarrassment as Darcy didn't even try to choke back a laugh.
