NOT MY GIF

You were all alone. It was quite peaceful actually. Everyone was either on a mission or out. Due to it being a Friday night. You didn’t want to join the boys tonight. You wanted to stay home and relax. You really didn’t feel like going with your three Bestfriend to bar hop and them try to continuously try to find a man for you.

You were content with yourself right now. And by that you meant you were in love with your best friend and didn’t want anyone else. You were content with being alone if you couldn’t have the man you loved. James Buchanan Barnes that is.

“Come on Y/N, we always go out as a group. You can’t break the gang up.” Your brother Steve pleaded as you walked into the living area in your pj’s

“Steve I already told you guys I wasn’t going I just want to relax. I just got home yesterday and I’m exhausted.” You said as you sit on the couch next to sam as reaching for the remote.

“Come on y/n/n are you really going to try and use that as an excuse?”Sam said nudging yo to get up.

“Yes Sam, I am. I had to be with a sleazy guy while on the mission if you don’t remember. I just want a peaceful night. One where I don’t have to worry about guys trying to hit on me when I’m clearly not interested. I’ve had enough of that for the past two weeks.” You say with slight annoyance.

It annoyed you sometimes how they wouldn’t understand it. Yes it was a mission and it was part of your job to have to be with the enemy to get intel but it still made you feel disgusted. You knew you didn’t have to. You could have an out but it would only prolong the mission. Wanda would always offer to do it but you couldn’t convince yourself to say yes. She was just a kid and you would rather sacrifice yourself than have her have to do it. And you knew that before you joined Nat had to do all of those missions and you really wanted to give her a break from that. She deserved that much. So you sucked it up and took one for the team.

Once you said you had to be with another sleazy guy for a mission Bucky tensed up. You knew he hated you having to do those missions. He hated them so much he got banned from going alone with you on those missions because he almost compromised the mission once. He had went up to the hotel room and was about to break down the door til in his earbud he heard Steve yelling at him. Of course you never found out because you were doing your job. But it tore into him. He wanted to be the only man you laid with. He loved you and you hadn’t even noticed. You always figured it was because you were Steve’s little sister and he took care of you the same way he did Steve.

Yes you two flirted and would occasionally cuddle and do couple things but you never really thought he had feelings for you. He never really flirted with anyone other than you. But it still didn’t register in your mind that he liked you. You figured that, that was something you guys had always done ever since you guys became best friends.

“Guys if she wants to stay home let her. We have a mission in a few days and she needs the rest.” Bucky said smiling down at you as he massaged your shoulders.

You looked up sending him your beautiful smile. The smile that he loves so much

“Thanks. Buck. I know I can always count on you.” You said as you turn back to the tv.

Steve and Sam take that as a sign of defeat. They knew better than to discuss this topic with Bucky especially with you in the room.

As they walked out of the loving area and into the hallway nearing the elevator when Bucky stopped.

“Hey guys I’m just going to stay back tonight.” He said as he leaned his arm on the side so the elevator wouldn’t close.

“Finally going to make move barnes.” Sam said with a smirk.

“Shut up I don’t like Y/N. I just want to make sure she’s okay. She shouldn’t be all alone”

“No one said you liked her. Is it a guilty conscience. I mean I always did like you too as a couple it’s a good balance.” Steve said smirking with Sam.

“Whatever, maybe I do but that’s not why I’m staying back I just genuinely want to make sure she’s okay.” He said as he pushed off one side of the door. Letting it close.

“Just don’t do anything stupid.” Steve replied as it was closing.

“How can I, you’re taking all the stupid with you.” Bucky smirked as it closed getting the last word.

Now there he was watching you at a good distance not wanting to intruded your relaxation. He watched as you got up and turned off the tv. You headed towards the record player and but on some Billie Holliday.

You had always loved her music and it let you have a piece of the olden days. Before everything got all screwed up. You never regret what happened and the decision you made. But you did like it when it was simpler.

You got up and swayed to the music waiting for your favorite song to come on. Finally it played, Lover man.

It reminded you so much of your love for Bucky. How it always seemed like a possibility but it never happened. As you Sang to the music.

“I go to bed with the prayer that you’ll make love to me.” You sing not realizing you’re being watched.

“ I haven’t heard your voice and this song in what feels like forever” Bucky says making his way over to you.

You were startled frozen by the voice. You thought everyone was gone. You thought they all had left. You were so glad that you didn’t dedicate the song to Bucky like you wanted to. That would have been 100x more embarrassing.

“I thought you left with the boys?” You ask walking towards him.

“I couldn’t leave you behind knowing that you had just gotten back home from a mission that I know you hate.” He said. As he walked toward the record player picking up the needle and starting the song over.

He walks towards you and sticks out his arm. You take his hand as you sway to the music. This was always something you imagined in your head and here you are with the man you love dancing to the song you dedicated to him oh so long ago.

“What on your mind? You look very concentrated” he said as he strokes a piece of hair away from your face.

“Just think about the last time we have danced together. Thinking about that last time we all went dancing. It was the night before we were getting shipped to England. Steve had left to go try his luck again.” You chuckled at the memory

“Oh and you brought, what was his name? Sebastian he had too left feet. Remember and my date scarlet,she just wanted to get in everyone’s pants. But we ended up pairing them together.” He laughed. “Yeah I remember being so nervous, I wanted to be my very best because this could have possibly been our last dance together.” He looked down at you smiling.

“Yeah, and I was just so in awe I finally realized why all the girls were so swooned with you. And I was a little disappointed that you didn’t kiss me. But you know time had passed and so have our feelings.” You say as you break from his eye contact.

“Wait you wanted me to kiss you? And passed feelings?” He said stopping out of shock.

“Yeah I kept looking at your lips and then I even inches closer towards you. I figured right there that my feelings for you were one sided.” You say shaking your head.

“I thought you were closing in because of tight space. If I would have know I would’ve kissed you. And they were not one sided feeling let me tell you that ,doll,” He said as you to stared

Now it was your turned to be shocked. “You never said anything. I always assumed you thought of me as a sister.”

“Y/n I was so in love with you, I always thought you weren’t interested because you thought I was a man whore because I always on dates.”

“I thought you didn’t like me because you went on all those dates. I loved you too buck. God, I still love you but I know things have changed, I am sorry I brought it up just forget about it.“ You say as you turn to walk away. You were stopped and turned into him. He looked into your eyes and before either of you could say anything, his lips met yours in a passionate kiss. This was you had been waiting for. You both waited way to long for that kiss. But it was something neither of you had ever felt before.

“I love you Y/N. I always have and I always will. So, what do you say “Will you finally be my girl?”

All you could do was nod.
