AN: Im so sorry I haven't been posting very much picking u extra shifts has definitely gotten in the way of me writing more.
âOkay Y/N the plan is simple, go out on a few dates, holding hands, that sort of thing. Youâll also have to accompany me to any public events I have to attend as an avenger until this thing blows over,â Steve explains to you from across the island with a very serious look on his face.Â
Since you agreed to be his girlfriend for matters of appearance it's been nothing but business. He wants nothing more than to treat this as a mission but youâve read enough books in your life to know itâs not going to work if you do it like that.
âI know what to do Steve, I've been in a relationship before,â you retorted sassily with a tired sigh.
âThis isnât a real relationship though Y/N, so we should be talking about how to make it look real.â
âTreating this like a mission is going to do nothing but make things more obvious that itâs fake Steve. If anything we should be treating this like a real relationship letting things progress on their own so it looks more organic to the public. I'm already around here all the time since we are friends and the press have always slightly speculated that we were an item so we should just feed into it.â
âY/Nâs right Steve if this is really what the two of you want to do then that would be the smartest way,â Tony interjects making his way towards the two of you, âAre you sure this is a risk youâre willing to take?â
âIf it will help everyone get off my back about the image of Captain America, yes,â Steve answers quickly without a second thought.
Before anyone can respond you hear the same screaming girl from last time calling Steve's name from the other room and heâs running towards the sound.
âY/N?â Tony asks, turning to look at you questioningly once heâs gone, âI understand why heâs doing it but why are you doing it?â
âIâm just hoping I can get a little bit of the old Steve back in the process honestly. I donât know what happened but I miss my friend, I miss the kind loving soul he used to be before he became a party boy player,â you answer truthfully letting Tony see how sad you truly are.
âHeâs taking after the âgenius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropistâ himself,â Tony jokes, gesturing to himself before releasing a sigh, âAll jokes aside I see what youâre saying and I hope you get what youâre looking for, Iâm just scared youâll get hurt in the process.âÂ
âI appreciate your concern for me Tony I truly do but I can handle this trust me. This is what needs to be done to help him not only have people think heâs somewhat himself again but also really get him there,â you explain standing from your seat and gathering your things to leave, âlisten I donât think me going near them two is going to help that situation any so Iâm just going to sneak out. Tell Steve to text me when heâs done.â
âLet me have Happy bring you home at least,â Tony says following behind you , âItâll be just like you were my assistant again,â he adds jokingly, already dialing the proper number.Â
âI donât really have a choice now do I?â You respond back by shooting him playfully daggers as he follows you into the elevator.
He simply shakes his head before speaking to who you assume is Happy on the phone. Itâs quick and quiet but when he hangs up he turns and looks towards you, âHeâll be outside in two minutes.â
As he says this the doors to the elevator open and you step off but he doesnât follow, he just gives you a worried look, be careful with what youâre doing Y/N.â
âI will Tony, you donât have to worry about me,âyou offer him a quick wave as the doors to the elevator shuts.Â
Once alone you turn heading straight for the door hoping the fresh air and silence will help soothe your nerves as you wait for Happy. The silence doesnât last long because soon enough the screeching voice of Steveâs little friend is behind you, âOh my god! Donât tell me he snuck you out when I showed up!â she shouts in an accusatory tone.
âWell actually I snuck out because I didnât want to have this exchange but here we are anyways,â you reply snarkily. Itâs quite out of character for you but when dealing with someone like this sometimes you canât control yourself.
âWell youâre quite bitchy for having stolen my boyfriend now arenât you?âÂ
âHe was never your boyfriend so thereâs nothing to steal, and he was my best friend long before he ever knew who you were anyways,â you retort just as Happy pulls up so you don't bother waiting for her response you slip into the car and head home waiting to hear from Steve about your âfirst dateâ.
You didnât hear from him at all that night or the next morning, you were beginning to think you were going to have to message him and make the plans yourself until there was a knock at your apartment door. When you opened it Steve was standing on the other side in sweats and a hoodie heâs holding what looks like a tabloid in his hands, âHey. I just wanted to say Iâm sorry about last night..and about this,â he says sheepishly handing you the magazine.
On the cover was a picture of you and Steveâs little friend outside the Avengers tower with the caption Did Captain America Double Book his Dates?. With a deep sigh you lead Steve inside as you flip to the page the article is on to read how the paparazzi is spinning the interaction.Â
âI didnât think they would be outside already trying to get pictures of you yet, we havenât even gone public,â Steve explains, heâs clearly upset over the whole situation more than you are.
âThey werenât there for me, they were just there to see any girl that came out of the building after visiting you, I was just caught in the crossfire,â you explain as you continue to skim the article but notice nothing of any importance. Annoyed, you throw the magazine onto your kitchen counter and turn to look at Steve, âWe should get the first public date out of the way soon, the longer we wait the more things like this will pop up. Also, I hope last night is the last time one of your girls shows up because I was serious when I said that I wonât do this if you keep seeing other girls, itâs bad enough she accused me of stealing her boyfriend like some sort of homewrecker.â
âShe did what?!â Steve bellows, his voice booming through your apartment.
âThatâs not whatâs important at this point, we need to figure out where we are going for our first date and how we are going to handle this whole thing. Plus she shouldnât be a problem for us anymore, right?â
âI was very clear to her last night that I meant it when I said that I didnât want to see her anymore. Her and every other girl Iâve seen have been officially added to the tower's no entry list as well so they canât just show up,â Steve answers seriously before switching subjects to the date, âAs for the date I think we should do something completely unexpected.â
âWhat do you mean by that?â You question somewhat nervously due to how wild Steve has been lately.Â
âWell I mean since everyone sees me as this guy who only goes out with girls who are into the party scene, what if we just avoid that aspect all together?â
âSo what are you suggesting we do then? Like we go to brunch or the farmers market?â
âWell those two things are kind of specific but yeah that sort of thing,â Steve responds with a slight chuckle.
The sound of your friend laughing is music to your ears, you havenât heard him laugh in months but you finally got to hear it again on your first day of fake dating. A smile spreads across your own face and you canât fight it back, âItâs specific because I was getting ready to do at least one of those two things before you appeared on my doorsteps.â
âWell donât let me stop you, as a matter of fact why donât I just join you and we make it date number one?â
âYou want to wander around the farmers market with me all morning?â you ask kind of shocked since he has always told you no.Â
âWell if it helps people think weâre dating then yeah of course,â he responds without a second thought reminding you that this is all just for his image not for your actual friendship.Â
You canât let yourself lose sight of the true picture during this, especially not this early or youâre going to get yourself hurt by the end of it. Quickly you regain your composure before he can notice anything. You give him a nod of confirmation before heading to your room to change into something better suited for the occasion.Â
âYou look nice,â Steve compliments examining your outfit when you return to the living room ready to head out.
âThank you,â you respond, your cheeks unwillingly warming under his gaze, âThe market is only like a block away from here if you donât mind walking there.â
Steve doesnât respond, he just gives you a swift nod but it's all the confirmation you need as you gather your reusable bags for the trip and head towards the door. You donât need to look back to know that Steve is directly behind you as the two of you make your way to the elevator because you can feel his presence, it's strong and warm like a hug from the person you care about most. The two of you walk in silence all the way to the elevator, once inside you finally turn towards him, âShould we hold hands while we are there?âÂ
âDo you think we should?â he asks hesitantly.
âWell I mean if you were on a date walking around with a girl is that what the old Steve would have done?â you retort without thinking about your wording until you see his body visibly stiffen.
âWhat do you mean by that?â he questions the hurt apparent in his voice.
âI didnât mean anything, I just chose the wrong wording. I'm sorry,â you respond instantly trying to salvage the mood a little.Â
âI donât necessarily believe you but Iâll let it slide for now, best believe we are talking about it later though,â Steve responds suspiciously giving you a sideways glance as the elevator doors open.Â
Before you can say anything else to defend yourself he is grabbing your hand and leading you outside in the direction of the farmers market.
âHave you been to a farmers market in the present day?â you ask curiously as the two of you approach the entrance.
âNo not since before I became Captain America,â Steve answers, the tone of his voice telling you he is clearly being transported to a different time.Â
âWhat were they like back then?â you ask genuinely curious about that part of Steveâs life.
âEveryone used to go to the markets when they had them, the main one in Brooklyn ended up closing at some point I believe so we really just had little markets more than anything,â he explains continuing to describe the way it used to be as the two of you wonder around the stalls occasionally stopping every so often if something peeks one of your interests.Â
Some time later the two of you are stopped in front of a booth that makes food from different eraâs while Steve picks out some forties style âfruit spreadsâ as theyâre labeled in flavor combinations that are no longer really made when an obnoxious voice screeches out from behind the two of you, âWell well well, what do we have here?â
âYou have got to be kidding me,â you groan, glancing over at Steve unsure how to approach this.
Quickly Steve finishes his purchase and grabs your hand trying to lead you past her to the next booth but she continually blocks your path, âI know youâre not trying to act like I'm not here Stevey poo, you wouldnât do that to the girl youâre cheating on now would you?â she asks smirking evilly at you as if she has won some game you were never playing.Â
âWe were never dating Clarke, you were just some girl I went out with a few times. Iâm sorry if you thought this was something more than it was but we were never in a relationship. The only woman I have ever been in an actual relationship with is Y/N and this is a brand new thing so I would appreciate it if you would stop randomly showing up every time we get together simply because you canât handle things didnât work out between us,â he responds in a firm but soft tone swifty shutting down all of her accusations.
At this point a small crowd has appeared due to the commotion she has caused and they are all looking at you and Steve in shock. Some of them have their phones out either taking photos or videos meaning that this will no doubt end up either online or in a tabloid somewhere if not both. This is the type of thing you didnât want to happen when you agreed to help Steve and look where you are now, standing in your local farmers market with a crowd around you because his fling couldnât accept that she was just a fling.
Sensing that your mood and body language has changed drastically Steve wastes no time pulling you away from the still screaming girl you now learned is named Clarke and the crowd of people surrounding her towards the exits.
âIâm sorry the day took that turn, I seriously donât understand how she found me here,â he says apologetically as the two of you walk back in the direction of your apartment, âI'm going to talk to Tony later about a way to get her to stop for good so you donât have to deal with this. I really need your help and I know the drama is a deal breaker.â
âThank you Steve I appreciate that,â you respond sincerely, turning towards him once the two of you reach the outside of your building, âIâll talk to you later so we can plan our next public outing ok?â you saying standing on your tiptoes to give him a goodbye kiss on the cheek.
Summary: Itâs been a few months since you and Bucky moved back into the apartment and things are great until you decide to invite everyone over for dinner to share some news.

Things have been quiet since you and Bucky left the tower, itâs nice to have your own place the two of you can escape to after a mission. There hasnât been much activity lately so there hasnât been a need for you which is a good thing for everyone involved. Yelena has been trying to figure out a plan for Valentina and Bucky has decided to help her while you continue to sift through the files, so even without missions everyone has been busy.
It has been a while since everyone has had a real break so you decide they are all coming over to the small one bedroom apartment you and Bucky share for a nice family dinner. You have news to share with them anyways so itâs the perfect time. Most of the day is spent preparing food and trying to rearrange furniture so everybody has a seat with the help of Bucky of course.
Everything is going perfect and according to plan until you notice you forgot to get any drinks, trying to trick yourself into thinking you just overlooked them you look once more before releasing a deep sigh.
âWhat is it?â Bucky asks from the living room area in concern.
âWe never bought drinks for tonight, all we have in here is milk and water,â you explain walking to the island where you can see him better, âYou wouldnât mind going to get some stuff would you? They should be arriving within the next half an hour and I have to watch the food.â
âOf course I donât mind, did you just want me to run to the liquor store or stop somewhere else as well?â he asks as he goes to grab his wallet and keys from the dish by the door.
âStop somewhere else just in case someone doesnât want alcohol,â you answer walking towards him for a goodbye kiss before heâs out the door and youâre returning to the food on the stove.
You donât notice how much time has passed until there is a knock at the door pulling you from your thoughts, âIâll be right there!â you call, turning off the stove before you head to answer the door. Â
As you open the door you are greeted with the sight of Yolena, Ava, John, and Alexi all waiting huddled in a group around the door frame, âHey! I'm so sorry I lost track of time, come on in guys,â you say apologetically stepping aside to let everyone in.Â
âWhereâs Bucky?â John asks, looking around the living room expectantly. Â
âHe went to get some drinks since I forgot to get them apparently. He should be back any minute, he left a while ago,â you explain, pulling out a tray of cheese and crackers while everyone waits, âwe can just snack on this until he gets back.â
Another ten minutes goes by everyone casually talking and snacking, but you are beginning to get nervous about where your boyfriend could be. A knock at the door interrupts everything and John stands to answer it for you, âthatâs probably him now and he just forgot his key.â
As he is undoing the lock you remember Bucky took his key so there is no reason he would have to knock, âJohn waite!â you call out walking towards the door yourself but it's too late, he's already unlocked it.
Whoever is on the other side forces the door open sending the two of you backwards and onto the ground forcefully. Your head smacks off the corner of the end table and black spots begin taking over your vision as you attempt to not pass out. You have to shake this off and help everyone. You have to find out what is going on with Bucky, now is not the time to lose consciousness but it doesnât matter because soon enough everything is black.
When you come to youâre tied up with your back pressed against Yelenaâs in the middle of some dimly lit room. Instantly you begin fighting with your restraints trying to untie both of you and waking Yelena up in the process.Â
âWhat is going on?â she questions now trying to break free herself.Â
âI was hoping you could tell me, the last thing I remember is trying to stop Walker from opening the door but he was already doing it when I walked up,â you explain, finally freeing one of your wrists and beginning to work on the other.Â
âI donât remember much, we heard a bang and I went to investigate but on the way there was this gas. It must have made me pass out since after that I remember seeing these men in all black coming towards me but nothing else,â Yelena explains just as confused as you are.Â
By the time she is done you have freed yourself completely you turn to help her, âDo you think Valentina has to do with this?âÂ
âI donât see why she would keep us together if that was the case. If she wants the files or any information it would be smarter for her to keep us separate.âÂ
âThat is true but let's be honest, when has Valentina been known to make a smart decision?â you retort as you examine your surroundings trying to find a way out since the door is clearly locked.Â
âWell she saved her own ass by telling everyone she was our team founder,â Yelena says with a shrug, searching the other half of the room opposite of you.Â
After what felt like forever but was probably another ten minutes of searching you both give up on finding a different way out and instead decide to come up with a plan for when someone comes into the room. Youâll use your powers to disarm whoever comes through so Yelena can take their weapon and you can find everyone else. At least that is what you both intended but you werenât expecting three people to come through the door.Â
You took down the first person no problem and turned your attention to the second person making their way through the door hoping to buy Yelena enough time to get to guard number one's gun. The second guard falls back into the third pushing both of them to the floor in the hallway with a large thud drawing the attention of anyone in the area. Looking at Yelena with wide eyes as more guards make their way down the hall the two of you dash through the doorway nearly tripping over the guards passed out on the floor.Â
Unsure where to go you look for an opening in the now forming crowd and pull Yelena with you in that direction, âpretty soon they are going to have alarms going off and more people looking for us, right now it just matters that we get out of this area then we can worry about where everyone else is and how weâre going to get them,â You explain sending guards and different workers flying out of your way as you go down the hallway when an alarm goes off almost as if on cue.
âWhat if they are on this floor too?â Yelena questions slowing down to look in one of the little windows attached to the door closest to her.
âThey were stupid enough to keep us in the same room but do you think theyâre stupid enough to put us all on the same floor?â you question.
Before either of you can say anything else a scream breaks through the sound of the alarm and you turn to Yelena shocked, âthat sounded like it was coming from the end of the hallway,â she says motioning in the direction with her head.
âThat sounded like it was Bucky,â you respond, heading in that direction before youâve even finished talking. Youâve heard that pained scream before and would recognize it anywhere after the years with Bucky helping him through his night terrors.Â
âY/N slow down we donât know what they are doing in there we need to come up with a plan first,â she tries to reason behind you.Â
âI donât care what they are doing, they are hurting him and I need to stop them,â you argue almost to the door with Yelena close behind.
âSo what are you going to do? Charge in there and get yourself killed right in front of him?âÂ
âNo, I'll be able to handle them just like Iâve been able to handle every other person so far. You just wanted to check every room a few minutes ago and now you want to stop and figure out a plan?â you ask slowly, getting annoyed with Yelena.Â
âWas that not what you were just saying we needed to do right before you realized Bucky was the one in trouble? Unlike you Iâm trying to think about the fact that we have more people to save and if you get us killed over your boyfriend then we canât do that,â she argues clearly annoyed about more than just this but now's not the time for that.
âWhatever, you go find everyone else if you want to but Iâm not going to walk away when I can hear someone clearly being tortured,â you snap and begin walking towards the room again fed up with this sudden shift in her attitude.Â
âOh look, youâre walking away from those who care about you once again. You did it twice already and now youâre going for a third time,â Yelena calls after you before making her way down the hall in the opposite direction.
Her words hurt but thatâs something you have to worry about later you remind yourself finally in front of the door the screams are coming from. Peeking inside you try your best not to be seen while also trying to assess the situation going on inside the room. Bucky is inside strapped to what looks like a high tech dentist chair while these two guards periodically poke him with these rods that look like theyâre electrocuting him while periodically looking at someone off to the side gives them a command. You canât tell who the person is but they are clearly calling the shots in this situation so you know who to leave alive for questioning.Â
You decide that it would be easier to lure at least one of them out before you enter the room and end up being trapped as well. Backing up you use your powers to pull the door open as wide as possible before making random objects in the hallway move in to get one or both of the guards out of the rooms. When footsteps walk towards the commotion youâre causing in the hallway you duck behind the door not wanting anyone to see you before they are fully in the hall. Once the guard is fully in the hallway you step out from behind the door revealing yourself to the man though he doesnât have a chance to react since you are instantly sending him flying backwards down the hallways where he slams into the wall getting knocked out. The commotion draws the other guard towards the doorway, giving you the perfect opening to drag him the rest of the way out of the room and send him down the hallway the same way you did with the last person before you enter the room yourself.
Your eyes meet Buckyâs and instantly can see the exhaustion and sadness heâs trying to hide causing a knot to form in your stomach. Thereâs not much time to say or do anything because the person who was hidden in the corner finally steps forward and begins to speak, âIt didnât have to be like this Y/N. You caused this when the two of you left the tower and started turning my team against me. All you had to do was be a team player and give me those files.â
âYour team? Your team?! This team was never yours, it was just something you manipulated people into thinking was yours so you didnât end up in jail, did you ever think that is why the team is falling apart? And no I will never give you MY files so you can do to others what you did to Bob and those people already did to me,â you argue, your body getting hotter with each word as you lose control of your emotions and powers for the first time in what feels like forever.Â
Before anyone can say or do anything else an extreme wave of energy rips through your body causing things to start flying around the room smashing into other stuff along the way as you drop to your knees in exhaustion momentarily. With no time to waste since things are still being destroyed around you, you try to gather all the strength you can and begin crawling over to Bucky to release him. Itâs hard but eventually you do reach him and manage to get almost every strap free except for one when darkness takes over your vision and youâve passed out once again.
Summary: When your best friend comes to you asking for help you obviously say yes, but do you really know what youâre getting into starting a fake relationship with him?

Sitting in your favorite booth at the diner you look around waiting for Steve to arrive. He asked you to meet him here yet heâs the one thatâs late, itâs already been fifteen minutes since the time that you were originally supposed to meet.Â
âJust give him five more minutes,â you keep telling yourself as you finish the drink you ordered when you first arrived.Â
As if she was waiting for you to finish, the waitress comes over almost instantly, âDo you want some more time before you order hun?â she asked sweetly.
âIâll just take the breakfast special. And a refill please,â you respond defeated and pretty sure Steve stood you up once again.
âNothing for your friend when he comes?â Sge questions knowing you and Steve are usually always together when youâre here.
âNo I donât think that heâs going to show up,â you sigh slumping back into the booth.
Steve has made plans with you to meet here multiple times in the last two months and hasnât shown up a single time. The only times youâve seen him lately was when he plastered on the cover of some magazine with his girl of the week. They say heâs more of a player than Tony Stark himself these days. Before you can let yourself fall down the rabbit hole that is the downfall of Captain America you hear his voice behind you.
âActually I was running a little late, but Iâm here,â Steve says with a smug tone, âIâll just have whatever sheâs having,â he adds, slipping past the waitress into the booth across from you.
You donât mean to stare but seeing him in person is completely different from the pictures. Heâs tired, your can see the bags under his eyes that they probably edited out of the pictures and how uncharacteristically wrinkled his clothes are. The Steve you knew would never be like this. None of how he's acting makes any sense to you but maybe this breakfast will help you figure it out.Â
âStop analyzing me Y/N did you ever think people donât like it,â he snaps lowly fidgeting in his booth across from you.Â
âOnly people who have something to hide,â you bite back trying to look him in the eye even though he can barely look at you, âwhy did you want to meet me anyways? The only time Iâve heard from you in these last two months you wanted to do this and never showed up, why is today different?â
It takes him a while before he answers but eventually he sighs and speaks even quieter than before as if he doesnât want anyone to hear, âI need a favor.â
âYou only wanted to see me because you need something from me?â You question, offended by him basically wanting to use you.Â
âAnd because I wanted to see you!âÂ
âSure you did, if you wanted to see me you wouldâve shown up the other times as well not just when it benefited you,â rolling your eyes you hold back from saying anything else since your waitress is arriving with your order.Â
âHere you go, two breakfast specials,â she says, placing the food and drinks on the table but avoiding eye contact, sensing the tension, âdo you need anything else right now?â
âNo, weâre good thank you,â you respond sweetly as you pick up your fork.Â
As she walks away Steve begins to speak again, âjust come by the Avengers Tower later, around dinner time.â
âWhy?âÂ
âPlease Y/N, I just really need your help with this. Plus itâs us spending more time together like you want.â
âI donât even know what youâre asking me to do though, thereâs no way coming over to the tower is the favor,â you argue in between bites of your food.Â
âItâs too risky to talk about here, somebody could overhear us.âÂ
âFine, do I atleast get to meet your girlfriend of the week? What was her name? Ansley?..No Ashley?â
âI do not have a new girlfriend every week, theyâre not even my girlfriends!â Steve grumbles dropping his fork to the table, âI gotta go. I have a meeting with Tony and I canât be late again or heâll really lose it. Please just come to the tower later.â
You donât say anything as he walks away, just finish your food thinking about what could have happened to the old Steve. When you go to pay the bill on your way out you learn he had paid already causing your heart to flutter.Â
âMaybe my Steve is still in there somewhere,â you think to yourself as you walk out onto the street and back to your apartment.
//
Walking out of the elevator when you reach the top floor you look around confused, usually there are Avengers all over this place but not today. Itâs almost like there was an emergency but the guard at the desk allowed you up here so you know thatâs not the case. Unsure where they are you begin to head towards Steveâs room but stop short when you hear the moans coming from that direction.Â
âThat must be why no oneâs around,â you grumble as you turn around and walk back to the main area, âF.R.I.D.A.Y would you please let Steve know Iâve arrived and am waiting for him.â
âOf course, just a moment.â
After a minute you hear a commotion coming from the room before some brunette in a skimpy black dress comes storming down the hall straight for the elevator clearly no longer in the mood for Steve but he's following after her anyways, âPlease Ashlynn just let me explain, I promise itâs not what you think!â she shouts but it's clear sheâs not listening.Â
By the time he has successfully gotten his sweats on enough to run sheâs already behind the now closed elevator doors and as good as gone. Defeated, he turns his attention towards you and the look on his face almost makes you feel bad until you remember heâs the one who asked you to come over
âWhy are you here so early?â he questions.
âEarly? Itâs 6:30, you told me to come around dinner time!â you respond now annoyed with the whole situation, âwhy did you want me here anyways?â
âThe favor I need I couldâ really ask for in public.â
âThen why not just ask me to come here from the start?â youâre growing impatient with his antics and ready to leave.
âI donât know, I guess I wasnât sure if you would come over,â he mumbles, scratching his head nervously, âI havenât been the greatest friend the last few months I know that.â
âYouâre right you havenât. But that doesnât mean that youâre not my best friend still, of course Iâd show up. What type of favor could be this serious though?â you question.
He doesnât respond at first but after taking a deep breath he does so quietly you nearly donât hear him, âI need you to pretend to be my girlfriend.â
âIâm sorry what?â you ask in shock, unsure whether or not you heard him right.Â
âIâve gotten one too many scandals as Americaâs golden boy and they want me to settle down to try and help fix my image. The thing is Iâm not ready to settle down, Iâm not ready to love anyone the way I-. Iâm just not ready for something like that so I figured youâd help me out by pretending to be my girlfriend until things blow over.âÂ
âWhat do you mean by that though? Like what exactly am I supposed to do that will help your image?â
âWell you are technically Americaâs sweetheart as Miss America are you not? Who you are as a person can make me seem like Iâve gotten my act together since nothing else seems to be working. I just need you to be seen with me in public and go to any public events I have to attend with me.â
You donât respond, you need time to think about what is being asked of you. This isnât feeding a pet or lending him some money, this is a full blown relationship fake or not. The feelings you had developed from him in the past have slowly dissipated with the less time you spend with him lately but what if this brings it all bacK?
âIâm sorry if I made you uncomfortable. You donât have to say yes, Iâd just figured Iâd ask especially after what you said about us still being best friends,â he says, pulling you out of your thoughts.Â
âNo no you donât have to apologize I just need to think about my answer. Something like this is big and I needed to think about my options,â You explain, âIâll do it but you need to stop with all these other girls, I will not have my image ruined while I help you fix your own.â
âOf course I would never want to do that to you.â
âThen you Mr. Rogers, have a new girlfriend,â you joke trying to lighten the mood.
After a few bad decisions your best friend Steve needs your help changing his image with the press and the public.

After a few bad decisions your best friend Steve needs your help changing his image with the press and the public. He needs everyone to see him as Captain America, the wholesome hero again, so he asks you to be his girlfriend just for the public. After multiple apologies and volunteering with different charities they think everyone seeing him settle down might be the best next step. Will you be able to help or will your own feelings get in the way?

The first part of this Steve Roger x Reader fake dating series will be out by the end of the week.
Youâre finally off the clock and making your way down to the part of the beach thatâs only for staff ready for one final dip in the lake. As you do you pass the lifeguard tower you see Bucky finishing up his final checks and sending him a flirty wave. The two of you have been flirting and dancing around each other all summer but tonight is your last chance if you want to make a move. Not willing to miss the opportunity you make sure he has the perfect view of you as you strip your uniform top and jean shorts to reveal the skimpiest bikini you brought with you on the trip. Itâs the perfect shade of red to match his lifeguard uniform but it only covers the bare essentials so you could only ever wear it in the cover of the now setting sun. Itâs not dark enough for her to miss the look that crosses his face as he soaks in every inch of her bare body.Â
âLike what you see?â You call out giving him a little show twirling in different directions.Â
âFrom here yeah, but I might need a closer look,â he responds, stepping towards you with a growl.Â
You let out a shocked giggle and run toward the lake trying to lead him into the water. When he finally catches up to you he pulls your body backwards towards his own letting his fingers explore every inch of you on the surface.
âYouâve run from me all summer, this game of cat and mouse ends tonight,â he whispers into your ear slowly biting the lobe before making his way down your neck with kisses.Â
You can feel his growing erection pressing into your backside as his finger makes its way to your top. He begins messaging your breast gently at first before sliding his fingers under the small fabric to pinch and play with your erect nipples, âyou know this bikini covers nothing,â he grumbles giving your nipples a tug, âyou might as well just take it off.âÂ
With a slight moan escaping your lips you reach behind your neck and untie the top before doing the same with the back attachment. Before it can fall in the water Bucky catches the top tossing it towards the beach. He spins you around ducking his head to catch your nipple in his mouth sucking on your breast. Your breath catches in your throat and your fingers grip his hair.Â
âOh Bucky!â You moan leaning back so he can access your breast easier.
He continues for a minute longer alternating breasts as he does before pulling away to look you in the eye and swoop in for a kiss pulling you closer to him.Â
âWe should head back to my cabin,â Bucky says breathlessly in between kisses, his manhood poking into you as it tries to break free of his swim trunks simply making you more eager.Â
You slip your camp shirt back on, opting to just carry your now sandy bikini top and shorts with you as you make your way back to his cabin. Bucky is the last lifeguard at the camp since all the kids leave tomorrow so he has the only solo cabin in the place and you are eagerly anticipating what that means for you.Â
As the cabin comes into sight you make a run for the door, âRace you!â You call over your shoulder causing Bucky to sprint after you.Â
Reaching the door first you fling it open and take your shirt off turning to wait for Bucky in just your thong bikini bottoms. You donât have to wait long because heâs in the room with the door shut behind him almost instantly. He begins walking towards you like a starved creature causing you to back up until the back of your knees are touching the bed. Pushing you back, you land with a thud sprawled out on his twin size bed waiting for his next move.Â
His hands grip the strings that hold your bottoms together and tug until they come off as well leaving you completely naked beneath him. Bucky takes in the sight of you all flush and ready to be taken before leaning down to shower your body in kisses. Starting at your stomach he makes his way slowly up your body stopping to circle his tongue slowly over your left nipple a few times before sucking it into his mouth. Doing the same thing to the right nipple he continues up one side of your neck stopping to most likely leave a few hickeys along the way before ending at your mouth. The two of you begin to make out intensely for a few minutes before he breaks away to make his way back down you body stopping just below your belly button.
Slowly he lifts both your legs spreading them out on either side of him to reveal you wet pussy, giving you a slight smirk he dips his head trailing even more soft kisses down your mound to the opening of your lips before letting his tongue flick out and slip in between them tasting the sweet juices you are producing for him. He releases a guttural moan before propping your lower half at an angle and burning his face deeper between your lips, sucking and licking at your clit for a few more minutes. Just when you are about to come he pulls aways
Bucky stands above you with a cocky smirk on his face as he lets his swim trunks drop, âI donât want you coming just yet doll. Every time you come I want it to be on my dick,â he explains ins a husky lust filled voice as he climbs back on top of you, âYou ready for me to stretch that pretty pussy out doll?âÂ
You give him a frantic nod but that isn;t enough for him, âUh-uh I need to hear you say it,â he whispers into your ear slowly running his dick up and down your pussy waiting for you to get the words out.
âPlease Bucky. Please fuck me I need you cum,â you beg thrusting your hips towards him in hopes of some sort of relief your body is longing for.
With one final kiss to your neck he lets himself finally slip into you slowly and an unexpected gasp escapes your lips from the euphoria you feel. All summer you both have danced around the idea of this and now it has finally happened, the wait was definitely worth it because with a few strokes you're cumming all over him already. Bucky doesnât stop, he doesnât even slow down, he just fucks you right through it and keeps going.Â
âDo you like that baby?â he asks kissing and biting along the area between your neck and jaw.
âIt feels so good,â you moan, letting your nails drag down his back in an attempt to stabilize yourself.                                                                                   Â
âGood because Iâm only just getting started,â he responds before pulling out and flipping you over.Â
Slipping back into you he grabs your ass with one hand while using the other to give you a few good spanks, a shocked moan escaping you each time he did, âyou like that you dirty girl?â he asks while spanking you again.
You donât manage to get any words out so you just simply nod before dropping your head to the bed. Your head is only down for a minute before you feel your french braid being tugged slightly.
âKeep that head up, I didn't say you could put it down,â Bucky says sternly, keeping hold of your braid so there was a slight tug everytime he pushed into you.
He kept going for another ten minutes alternating between tugging your hair and smacking your ass until you came all over him once again before he finished himself with a loud moan.Â
Pulling out of you he flops onto the bed tugging you down beside him, âWe shouldâve done that sooner,â he says casually kissing your temple as if you two have always been an item.
âOh yeah Iâm sure your bunk mates would have loved the show,â you respond jokingly curling over to cuddle into his chest knowing that after tomorrow morning you wonât see him until next summer if he returns.

Summary: Do you find out more than you bargained for in the search for your files?
Pairing: Bucky x Reader, Yelena x Reader (platonic)Â
Warnings: Mentions of violence, Mentions a gun, Mentions of previous Child Abuse
Word Count: 1869
Yelena says this is the only spot left that she couldâve hid everything and you really hope sheâs right. You stare up at the building exhausted, with the size of this place itâs going to take forever to find the files if theyâre even in here. Itâs been two months of searching, you had to start looking in places out of state in hopes that maybe theyâre actually there but they never are. Constantly being away is not helping your mental state or your relationships. You and Yelena have been on edge due to the constant disappointment and even if Bucky understands why you have to go, things are hard everytime you come back.Â
âI hope this is the one,â you mumble, scaling the side of the building.Â
Yelena swears they would be on the top floor if theyâre here so you are going to start at opposite ends and meet in the middle.
âItâs going to be here, don't be so negative!â You hear Yelena exclaim through the earpiece causing you to become irritated.Â
âYouâve said that about every single place that weâve been to,â you retorted, annoyed with her unwillingness to acknowledge the possibility of us finding these files being slim to none.Â
âYes but considering Iâve been admittedly wrong this has to be the building. I know youâre frustrated and just want to be at home, I feel the same wayâ Yelena says clearly fed up herself, âyou know we still want the same thing here right? You do remember Iâm doing this for you not the other way around donât you?âÂ
You donât say anything else for a moment letting what sheâs said replay in your mind as you push the window attempting to see if itâll open. When it doesnât you remove your tiny little laser cutter you received from Tony as a welcome gift all those years ago and begin cutting through the glass.
âYouâre right Yelena, Iâm sorry Iâve been so snappy lately. I've just been so stressed about finding these files, my relationship with Bucky, our friendship, and plus to top it all off my period has always been irregular but itâs never been this late. I donât even know if I can get pregnant but Iâm hoping these files can tell me,â you explain as you finish getting yourself into the building instantly searching any place possible for them.Â
âIf I were Yelena, where would I hide something like this?â You question yourself trying to think of any non obvious place a person would look for them.Â
A crash from the other side of the building sets alarm bells off and youâre instantly running towards the sound, that must be where Yelena is searching.
âIf thereâs someone else here I need to help her,â you think as you search each room hoping to find her.
When you do, there's three other people with her, two of which are attempting to keep her busy while the third loads what Iâm assuming is the files weâve been searching for into a duffle bag.Â
âGo for the files! I can handle these two!â Yelena shouts when she sees you enter the room.Â
You start running towards the person with the duffle bag as Yelena instructed but one of the two masked robbers who was attacking her comes charging at you. Raising your hand to block and defend yourself sends an unexpected electricity spark towards the person sending them to the floor instantly. You donât have time to dwell on the new power youâve discovered since the person with the duffle is now making their way toward the shattered window.
âI donât think so,â you remark as you catch up slamming them to the floor.Â
The bag drops to the floor beside them but you donât reach for it, instead you reach for the mask concealing this mystery person's identity. Yelena had already knocked out the other guy so this one is the only person who can tell you who hired them and why. Once their mask is off you know who hired them without having to ask, it was Valentina, but why? And why would she have guards weâve seen multiple times do it?
âWhy does Valentina want these files?â You question squatting in front of him.Â
He has no intention of talking but Yelena pulls out a gun hoping to give him some motivation and it does.
âShe says whatever is in those files could help her make another superhuman like Sentry was suppose to be before he turned on her,â the man stammers nervous that Yelena will use the weapon if she needs too, âbut Iâm not even supposed to know that much so I donât know what else she has in store.â
Unable to get any more information, you and Yelena tie the three of them up leaving them for the authorities to deal with. Instead you scoop up the duffle bag of files and make your way back home to where your boyfriend is waiting for you. Not only do you want to spend some long overdue time with Bucky, maybe soaking in a nice bubble bath with some wine or watching a movie together you also want to finally know what happened to you as a child. What happened to me when I was too young to understand or chose not to because the pain was too bad?
Bucky is in your room in the tower when you and Yelena arrive so you give everyone a quick hello before heading there yourself to see him with all the files that are on your life.
âGuess whoâs home!â you exclaim in a sing-song voice as you swing the door open to reveal your handsome supersoldier boyfriend laying on the bed the two of you share, shirtless.
âY/N!â he exclaims himself breathlessly shooting upright in the bed as if he wasnât expecting you to be back so soon but soon his focus shifts to what you are carrying, âDid you find your file?â
âI did, but itâs more like files apparently. These are all mine, I just havenât gotten to go through them yet,â you explain plopping them all on the desk thatâs tucked into the far corner of the room before walking towards Bucky, âI wanted to spend time with the most amazing, understanding boyfriend before I did anything else.â
âWell that can be arranged,â he replies, pulling you down onto his lap with a smirk before showering your face in kisses.Â
Thatâs when Bucky notices the ever so slight bruise that has formed on your cheek and pulls back to look at you in concern, âItâs nothing serious, you knew it was a possibility that there would be other people looking for the files too,â you say, trying to wave it off in hopes that Bucky wonât question you further. If you tell him that it was Valentinaâs goons things could get messy fast.
âHow many were there?â He questions his fingers now tracing the bruise lightly.
âJust three,â you whisper back hoping that is his last question because if he asks you who sent them youâre not going to be able to lie.Â
You see his mouth begin to form the first syllable of that very question and your heart drops, you just hope that he stays calm long enough for you to explain that we canât confront her yet.
âWho sent them? Do you know?â
âI do but I need you to promise me youâll hear me out before you go all winter soldier okay?â you answer cautiously but you still feel his body tense.
âValentina,â he growls, already knowing the answer to his own question.Â
He tries to move you in an attempt to stand up and leave the room but you wrap your legs around him before he can. You might not have super strength like he does but your powers allow you to hold your own against Bucky when heâs like this.Â
âNo listen to me, that's probably what sheâs expecting,â you try to explain, swinging yourself behind him causing him to fall back onto the bed, âWe need to let her think that we donât know but still distance ourselves from her.â
âAnd how do you expect to do that if we live in the tower she owns?â he retorts, partially annoyed, partially curious.
âWe let her think the tower isnât good for our relationship and move back into our old apartment,â you respond with a nonchalant shrug, âItâs only a partial lie considering I couldnât do this whole weâre all together all the time thing even when I was a part of the original Avengers. We all need space at some point.â
âAnd how is the team going to react to this?â He is genuinely interested in this plan.
âYelena is going to take care of that part, don't worry babe we know what weâre doing,â you say reassuringly, giving him a kiss on the cheek.
âFine if you and Yelena have that under control how about we start reading these files youâve been searching so hard for?â
âOkay,â you say, crossing the room back to the desk where you pick up the first folder labeled âEarly Yearsâ as if it was the first in a collection of photo albums.
Opening the cover reveals the first pictures youâve ever seen of yourself as a child. Your hair is extremely short but it's still the same shade it was today. Even then your eyes looked tired and scared, you canât help but wonder if it is fear of whatâs to come or what has already happened. Beside the photo it reads;
Test Subject: Y/N Y/L/NÂ
Age: 7Â
Reason for admission to study: Trade for immunity of their crimes by guardians
The whole page continued on listing your height, weight, allergies, any statistic it possibly could about you. The next few after that were just observations of how you react to things normally before any test began so they could have a control point to reference. Then thatâs when the real test began, all of the horrible things it said they did to you within those first few months were gut wrenching.
âHow do I not remember any of this?â you question aloud after reading out the ice baths they'd submerge you in for hours at a time after administering the same shots over and over again in hopes of seeing results.Â
âItâs the usually trama response most people have to this sort of torture,â Bucky responds solemly, laying a hand on your shoulder for comfort.
Most of the files are just documentation of your abuse for the next three years until your powers began to show as they began pumping you full of more and more experimental drugs. Thatâs when they decide that they are going to put you in classes with all the other girls hoping it would help your powers grow. Every page you read made your stomach turn because they did so many horrible things to you as a child and made you do horrible things to others as well. Atleast now you know the truth and maybe this can help you grow your future.

Youâre working furiously on your computer trying to rearrange your bosses schedule making space for the two meetings you had to reschedule when you sense a presence at your desk. Standing above you was the man who caused all this himself, James Buchanan Barnes, your boss. He was holding a cup of coffee in each hand and wearing a sheepish smile on his face.
âOne of those better be for me after the morning youâve caused,â you half joke nodding your head towards the cups causing him to hold one out in your direction.
âI even got you an apology scone this time,â he says cheekily, producing a package from his blazer pocket.
âI suppose that makes things a little better,â you joke accepting his gift while simultaneously passing him a few large manilla envelopes, âThese came for you this morning, the one on top is everything you need for your meeting in thirty minutes but luckily for both of us itâs downstairs in one of the conference rooms giving you more than enough time to look through what you must. When you get back you hopefully should have about another thirty before you are expected to be at a lunch meeting wit-â
âI thought I was free for lunch today, thatâs what the schedule you made says,â he says in a childish annoyed tone cutting you off mid sentence, âI wanted to go to the deli down the street.â
âWell since you missed two meetings this morning I had to move some things around. I was able to reschedule Congressman Hotch to the time you were supposed to meet with Mrs. Andleline since she had to cancel due to a personal matter. Unless you wanted to spend dinner time talking with the veteran support committee, lunch is the only time I can fit into your schedule,â you explain, shooting him a sympathetic look before the phone starts ringing and you have to return to work.
The rest of the day goes by in a flurry helping you keep your mind off the adonis supersoldier that is your boss. This job isnât easy by any means but the hardest part is keeping your feelings a secret in order to stay professional. Some days you canât help but think he likes you too, like today when he bought you the scone you usually buy yourself if he asks for coffee. After a while of letting the fantasy play out in your head, the what ifs of it all, you are pulled back to reality. Mr. Barnes walks out of his office in a different outfit, heâs always bring extra clothes so you arenât surprised by the sudden wardrobe change. You know it means though and the knot forms in your stomach, heâs going on a date.
Quickly you look away busying yourself with what little work you have left hoping heâll make the goodbyes quick. It might be childish but itâs hard to look at him sometimes knowing he is going to spend his time with another woman.
âIâm going to head out now, donât stay here too much longer, head home and take some time for yourself, â He says casually.
âHave a good night Mr. Barnes,â you say, glancing up quickly before returning to your work.
âYou too Y/N,â he calls over his shoulder on his way to the elevator.
You try your best to focus on the last task you have left for the day as he leaves but you canât. Your mind keeps wandering back to him.
âItâs hard to long for someone everyday but know that you canât have them. He hasnât gone out on a date in a while but everytime he does itâs like a punch in the gut. Maybe at another point in life when Iâm not just his assistant Iâll have a chance with him,â you think to yourself.
After what feels like forever youâve finally finished everything you needed and are on your way home yourself. Checking the time as you step out into the evening air you notice you missed the bus and let out a sigh.
âThe next one isnât for an hour and a half so I might as well walk. At least itâs a nice night,â you think aloud as you begin walking down the street.
On the way you decide to stop for some takeout and grab a bottle of wine, yes it's only Thursday but you feel you deserve a treat with how hectic your week has been. It doesnât take you long to walk home but when you do youâre exhausted. Not only physically but emotionally from having to deal with this battle inside yourself over your boss. As you eat your dinner you decide that you are going to write everything down to see if it helps with the weight you feel inside.
You pour another glass of wine and find a blank piece of stationary amongst the mess of paper you were preparing for him tomorrow.
âIâve never actually written what a feel before but here goes nothing,â you think as you begin to write as if youâre writing a letter to him
Mr Barnes,
I donât know how much longer I can work for you and keep these feelings a secret. Itâs been two years and I want you more than anything. I want a chance to get to know the charismatic person that I can sense you are and have conversations beyond our jobs. You make my heart skip beat everytime you smile, even when itâs that cocky sarcastic smile that you love to do. Every so often you will do something that makes me think and dream I have a chance with you, then you come out of your office dressed for a date and the hopes that I have a chance are gone all over again. I know that while we work together I can never tell you any of this and it kills me so I figured Iâd write it out instead and hope it helps.
You donât remember falling asleep but you must have because you wake up on the couch disoriented and confused by the sound of your alarm going off in the other room. Apparently yesterday exhausted you so much you knocked out on your couch without even taking your work clothes off. Quickly you rush to shut the alarm off and jump in the shower knowing that you might be late since you didnât do any of your usual prep work last night. After your shower you throw every paper thatâs onto the desk into the envelope for Mr. Barnes to look through today in order to prepare for any meeting he has and shove that into your work bag as you rush out the door. Lunch is something youâll have to worry about later, you donât have time to make one youâll be lucky if you make it to the office on time already.
By the time you reach your desk there are two minutes to spare and you still have to check the answering machine, as well as make sure any emails sent throughout the night are answered in case there's something important. Youâre busy writing down what messages are necessary and rearranging the schedule you had set for the day. There arenât many meeting Mr. Barnes had today, just two, a majority of his dayâs going to be spent reading proposals and signing off on things that required his approval.
âItâs actually going to be an easy Friday,â you think to yourself in shock when you see Mr. Barnes strolled in only ten minutes later than when he was supposed to.
He looks just as tired as you do if not more meaning he had a late night, maybe his date went well. Or maybe he was reading over some of the files all night, the ones he had brought home with him for further review. Either way you didnât want to think about it too hard because you will start spiraling before youâve even had a cup of coffee.
âGood morning Mr. Barnes, how are you this morning?â you greet him with as cheerful of a smile as you can muster.
âGood morning Y/N, you donât think you could go on a coffee run could you?â He replies, his voice is still raspy with sleep and it sends a shiver down your spine.
âI was just waiting for you to arrive then I most definitely planned on it. I need a cup myself,â you reply, shooting up from your chair and rushing to the elevator calling over your shoulder on the way, âThat whole stack on my desk is for you.â
He grabs the pile and heads to his desk with no intention of even looking at them until you return. Thatâs until a sheet written completely in your handwriting catches his eye, it looks like a letter.
âI wonder what this is,â he thinks to himself, pulling it out further to inspect it.
Mr Barnes,
I donât know how much longer I can work for you and keep these feelings a secret. Itâs been two years and I
Before he can read any further you appear in the doorway holding the cup of coffee he requested. He slipped another folder over the letter unwilling to reveal that he has already begun reading the letter you have left for him.
âMy savior!â He cheers jokingly as he reaches for the cup smiling at you.
âI figured you probably didnât have a chance to eat anything either so I grabbed you one of those muffins that you like as well,â you as sweetly placing the bag in front of him.
As you do you notice something odd peeking out from under the folder on his desk. No.
âThereâs no way he has what I wrote last night. Itâs not possible,â you think to yourself, panic setting in instantly.
âY/N? Is everything okay?â Mr. Barnes questions pulling you from your thoughts.
`âOh, uh yeah, I just remembered that I have some stuff I have to finish up,â you stammer out heading back to your desk as quickly as possible.
Once youâre there you retrace your steps from this morning trying to figure out how he could have ended up with that letter. You must have mixed it up with the rest of the paperwork on the desk since it was on the same embossed stationery the rest of it was on. Yes you wrote it to him but you had no intention of anyone ever seeing it, in fact you planned on throwing it out. Now you donât know what could happen once he reads it, you could get fired for an hr violation or something along those lines. He could just simply feel you are too unprofessional to work with anymore. Or the one you feel is least likely, he could reciprocate those feelings.
Instead of pondering any longer you decide you might as well just finish your work and whatever happens will happen, thereâs no stopping it now. The day goes on with little communication between the two of you apart from a request from him here or there, or you transferring a call to him. Youâre beginning to believe that he's not even going to acknowledge the letter when the end of the day has rolled around and nothing has been said or done about it. That is until he stops in front of your desk watching you pack your bag silently for a moment.
âDo you think I could walk you to your car so we can talk about this?â Mr. Barnes asks quietly so he doesnât draw the attention of the few people still left in his office.
âI take the bus,â you reply glancing up at him, âbut you can walk me outside if youâd like.â
âHow about I give you a ride home instead then,â he proposes.
It takes you a moment to respond since youâre unsure if you want to be trapped in a car with him for this conversation but ultimately you give him a slight nod, âOk,â
Once youâre in the elevator you begin to speak before he can, âI just want to start off by apologizing for you receiving that letter Mr. Barnes. It was never my intention for it to leave my house unless it was in the trash.â
âCall me Bucky, I tell you that all the time and also you donât have to apologize Y/N, I'm not upset with you. I ju-â before he can continue a few more people join us in the descent to the garage pausing the conversation until weâre in the car.
As soon as the engine is started he begins to speak again, âI donât want you to quit, last start there. No matter where this conversation goes I need you to keep working for me. You are the only one who has been able to make this whole job be bearable so I canât have you quit. Iâll even give you a raise if you want it.â
âMr. Bar-â you begin to say but he shoots you a look that makes you correct yourself, âBucky, I thought you were going to fire me I have no intention of quitting at this moment. I just wrote that in a bit of a haze when I saw you leaving for your date last night,â you explain in one rushed breath.
âThat wasnât a date,â He says with a chuckle glancing over at you, âI was going out with Sam for some drinks to catch up. Itâs nice to know from the beginning that you have a bit of a jealous side to ya though.â
âI just- I wasnât jealous I was just-â you stammer trying to find an excuse.
âIt's an okay doll I think itâs cute,â Bucky says casually causing your heart to skip a beat, âIn fact what I was trying to tell you in the elevator was that I feel the same way believe it or not. I never feel like I could tell you or act on these feelings since I am your boss after all and that is an abuse of power but since the moment I was introduced to you as my new assistant Iâve wanted you to be my girl. If we were to give this relationship a shot we would have to keep things on the downlow in the office until things are established. If that's something you canât deal with then I completely understand but I couldnât go another second without telling you. Itâs been eating me alive all day. I just wanted to call you into my office and tell you that I feel the same way.â
By the time he is done talking the two of you are parked in front of your apartment, before you notice what you are doing your seatbelt is off and youâre leaning over to kiss him. Bucky reacts almost instantly pulling you over into his lap deepening the kiss.
After what feels like forever he pulls aways smiling up at you, âI take it thatâs a yes to this? To us?â
You smile climbing off of him, âOf course. But I feel like this conversation is best finished upstairs before someone gets a compromising picture of us,â you respond, stepping out the car leading him upstairs to the privacy of your apartment.
I will be trying to stick to a weekend schedule for A New Team meaning any more parts will be on either Saturday Sunday or both those days depending on how much I get written . As for the Congressman Barnes x Assistant reader oneshot I should have that out by the end of Friday.
