The not-so average sleepover with 40s!Steve… suggestive mdni
Imagine you and Steve are best buddies, especially since neither of you is as tall or conventionally handsome as Bucky. You’re at a supper club accompanying Steve and Bucky, but both of your dates have wandered off to fawn over other soldiers. You and Steve are left sitting there, downing cup after cup until something clicks in your head. If you were a girl, you’d give Steve more than a chance.
As you take another sip of your drink to shake the thought from your head, you glance back at the girl who was supposed to be dancing with you. But you don’t want to dance with her—you want to dance with Steve. You look over at him, anxiously tapping his foot to the beat of the music.
“You wanna get out of here?” you whisper. “My mom probably cooked better food than this slop. He chuckles. “Sure. I’m tired anyway. Bucky looks like he’ll be entertained for the rest of the night.”
The two of you head back to your place, and just as expected, your mom has left dinner on the stove. You serve Steve a plate and feel oddly… domestic. It feels right, like something you’d be comfortable doing. Taking care of Steve has always brought you joy, but when he patched you up after a particularly nasty knockout? It felt better than Christmas. Steve has a way of making you feel cared for, like you belong.
After dinner, you both decide to go to sleep. Usually, Steve takes his spot on the mattress on the floor, but tonight he wants the bed. You almost suggest sharing—it is big enough, after all—but instead he wants to wrestle for it.
“Fair and square, I promise. You take me down and hold me for more than five seconds, then you get the bed. And vice versa.” He holds out his hand, and you take it.
You lunge for his waist, trying to throw off his balance, but he catches you before you can drive him back. The two of you stumble, laughing, and crash onto the mattress in a tangle of limbs. You keep pushing, trying to pin his shoulders, but Steve twists beneath you with surprising strength, rolling you just enough to turn the tables. Suddenly, your back hits the mattress and he’s over you, braced on one elbow, his other hand steady at your side.
The laughter fades first.
His breath is warm against your face. Yours catches in your throat. The room seems to narrow until there’s nothing but the weight of him above you, the mattress dipping under his knees, the quiet hitch in his breathing when he realizes how close you are. His eyes flick to your mouth, then back to your eyes, and something in his expression shifts—softens, deepens, turns almost careful.
Neither of you moves— then Steve leans in, slow and deliberate, giving you every chance to pull away.
Your hand tightens in his shirt, and when the last inch disappears between you, you kiss him. Steve pulls you even closer— almost suffocating you and grinds himself against you, panting against your lips, he whispers “I don’t want to let go.”
“Please don’t.” You pant back. And he doesn’t.
I promised myself I was gonna get this out before pride month ended. I was listening to Jailhouse rock by Elvis Presley and Steve Rogers popped into my head, I don’t know why but he did. Anyways this could be read for any gender but I had male reader in mind…. I also lowkey made Bucky sound like a slut but that’s just for the plot, (he legit stole their dates unintentionally my fault) but I love Bucky to the end of my days. Also sorry if this is rushed, I lowkey was just typing bullshit on the keyboard.
inspo: jailhouse rock by Elvis Presley, the wrestling duo golden lovers, Love Stage!! [2014] (but only slightly not 100%)
