I still donât have the right look, and I still have the same three friends, and Iâm pretty much the same as I was back then. High school never ends! Itâs never too late to get that second chance. Below are my Top 5 Favorite stories:
âThe starry skyâ (E, 21k) by lockedlocke
Upon receiving an invitation to his High School reunion, Steve decides to go purely out of spite. What he doesn't take into consideration, however, is that he will have to face Bucky again for the first time in years.
+ Inseparable until graduation, they were desperate for each other but too young to know how to stay together. What better way to reconnect than fucking in the back of a pickup truck?Â

âBrooklyn Barnesâ (M, 20k) by littleblackfox
âThe fates have spoken, sir,â Natalia sounds too damned pleased. âThey want you to go home. And kill some guy while youâre there.â
+ A Grosse Point Blank movie AU. Buckyâs a retiring assassin who reunites with his high school sweetheart

âold hauntsâ (M, 17k) by shestepsintotheriver
Steve's ten year high school reunion is just around the corner. He's not going.
Except he is.
So many things have changed, including himself. But one thing that hasn't? His old crush on Bucky Barnes, the boy who never looked at Steve if he could avoid it. But maybe this time... that, too, will be different.
+ Steveâs determined to show off his Revenge Body, and discovers what was going on with Bucky all those years ago

âyou sit there in your heartache (waiting on some beautiful boy)â (NR, 3k) by RainyForecast
âYou have the most ridiculous inferiority complex Iâve ever seen, darling,â Peggy tells him, not for the first time. âRidiculous, because you are wonderful. And this is the perfect opportunity to exorcise some of those old demons of yours. Now roll up your sleeves so your ink shows.â
Steve does as she says, muttering that sheâs definitely right about demons being involved, then takes a deep breath and walks up the familiar steps into Edward R. Murrow High School, following the tacky âClass of 2006 10 Yr Reunion!!!â signs to his inevitable doom.
+ The boys may have lost touch with each other, but Peg and Nat are the ultimate matchmakers

âSo Take a Chanceâ (G, 1k) by FromFarAway
Steve Rogers attends his high school reunion, confronts past bullies, and learns something new about an old classmate.
+ Sam is Steveâs emotional support guest and Nat is the winner of bets

âHow Exactly Should I Phrase It?â (T, 3k) by 74days
Bucky is pretty sure the guy at his gym is the same guy he blew at a party when he was a teenager, but he's got no idea how to ask that question. His best friend is no help at all, and in the end, it's pretty easy.
+ Not a high school reunion, but they were in high school together, and itâs a reunion. Mutual pining fluff!
