#scared bucky

Now, he was standing outside your closed door and calling out for you in the softest voice possible so as to not wake you up but also wanting you. He slumped to the ground and started sniffling.

You were woken up by the sound of a loud *thump* followed by sniffles. You instantly knew who it was and rushed to the door. Opening the door, you were greeted by the sight of bucky curled up on the ground, rubbing his balled fists on his eyes trying to get rid of his tears. “Bucky…” you called out. He turned his head towards you and jumped into your outstretched arms, engulfing you in a tight hug. After a moment, you pulled back a little and stood up. Bringing him along with you to the bed. You sat down with your back against the headboard. Bucky climbed into your lap and sat down straddling you, and rested his head on your chest. He circled his arms around you. “What happened Bub?” you asked while running your hands through his hair locks. Something that always calmed him down. “Scawy dweam mama. ‘t was so scawy.” “It’s okay my little bud. It’s okay. Mama’s here now.” He snuggled even further into you as he drifted off to sleep in the security of your arms. Knowing that his mama will fight away all the monsters if it meant him being comfortable.

At around two in the morning, you got out of your comfy, warm bed and headed downstairs into the living room that you shared with the rest of the Avengers.

It was late and no one would be awake since most of the team goes to bed early, like oldies. Knowing this eased your anxiousness about waking anyone up. You usually stayed up in your room until morning came, but tonight you wanted to do and be somewhere different. Hence going to the living room.

Once you got downstairs, you walked towards the kitchen to see if there was any food calling your name.

More like stomach, you thought. 

Looking around in the pantry, you decide on some Oreo’s and milk and go to sit down on the couch.

Scrolling through Netflix, you’ve always enjoyed watching horror movies, so you settled on watching The Babadook. You’ve seen it a couple times, but you didn’t care because it was one of your favorites, no matter what people said about it.

Before the movie began, you heard someone coming into the living room. You immediately felt bad and sunk further into the couch, thinking you woke them up. You knew they probably saw you, but still stayed in that position thinking they’d leave. However, you heard their footsteps approaching louder and louder towards you, their feet dragging across the floor.

You look up and see Bucky’s tired face with a small smile plastered across it, his eyes slightly closed due to lack of sleep, looking down at you.

“Whatcha up to, Y/N?” Bucky says, the rasp and strain evident in his tired voice.

“I- uh, just watching a movie, y'know. Uh, d-did I wake you? I’m sorry, I should’ve stayed in my room, I-I’m uh, I’ll go.“ you stammered while quickly getting up from your warm spot on the couch.

Before you have the chance to sprint to your room, Bucky gently grabs your hand, pulling you back.

“No, no you didn’t, doll. Don’t worry. You can stay, I just needed to, uh… I just didn’t want to be in my room.” Bucky tiredly comments, looking back and forth between you and the ground.

“O-okay, uh, do you want to maybe, uh, j-join me?” you say with wide eyes, nervousness evident in the way you spoke.

“Hmm, I’d love to Y/N, if you don’t mind?” he asked. Shaking your head no he continues, “Okay, I’ll go make us some popcorn!”

Getting comfortable on the couch, you place a pillow in between you both and set the popcorn on top of the pillow. Pressing play, you snuggle into the blanket, while Bucky turns off the lights and joins you on the couch.

“So, what’re we watching, Y/N?” Bucky asks taking a glance at you, stuffing a handful of popcorn into his mouth.

“Oh, right. Uh, i-it’s called The Babadook. It’s like a psychological horror movie. It’s one of my favorites.”

“Hmm, interesting. It must be pretty good if it’s a favorite of yours.” he says grinning.

You blush, hoping he couldn’t see your tomato stained cheeks, and press play on the remote.

About half way through the movie, there has been a few jump scares, which you’re used to, but you could tell Bucky wasn’t a fan, especially by the facial expressions he was making.

The current scene playing, where Amelia sees the Babadook in the window of her neighbor, Mrs. Roach’s, house, causes Bucky to jump a little and look over at you with wide eyes.

Pausing the movie and nervously turning towards Bucky, you ask, “I-uh, are you okay? We can watch something else. I don’t mind.”

Bringing his eyes back to the screen, Bucky shakes his head no, adding, “Uh-I, no no it’s-I’m okay. I just wasn’t expecting that. That thing is fuckin’ scary though.” tiredly chuckling. You nod your head in reply, chuckling along with him and play the movie again, popping a few more pieces of popcorn into your mouth.

However, within the next few minutes, you forgot about one particular scene that may scare the bejeezus out of Bucky.

The scene consists of Amelia sleeping in her bed, trying to forget about the monster and get at least a few decent minutes of sleep. But she hears that familiar, disturbing noise. 

Ba-ba-ba… dook! Dook! DOOOOOKH! 

Opening her eyes, she sees the Babadook crawling across her ceiling towards her bed coming towards her; screams filling the room as she hides herself under the covers on her bed.

Bucky’s breath hitches as he jumps, moving quickly towards you, causing the popcorn to go everywhere and swiftly hooks his arms around your waist for security.

This action itself made you jump, since you weren’t really expecting it nor were you used to this type of physical contact with anyone, ever.

You were pulled out of your thoughts as soon as you heard Bucky whimper and tighten his grip around your waist. Pausing the movie, you direct your attention to him.

“I-I’m so sorry, Bucky. I-I didn’t think it would scare you that much.” you say wrapping your arms around him, drawing soothing patterns on his back.

He slowly lets go of your waist and directs his wide, scared eyes to yours shivering slightly.

“I-I, uh, I-” Bucky stops talking, trying to get a hold of himself, shaking his head and closing his eyes.

When he does this, you cup his cheek with your hand and run your thumb across it. This causes him to slowly open his eyes again.

“I-sorry, Y/N. That one was a little, uh- fuck. I don’t know how you can watch this stuff, doll.” he chuckles, with a wavering voice and letting go of your waist, making you miss the contact.

“You get used to it after a while.” you say with a sad smile adding, “I should’ve told you about there being jump scares, I’m sorry. I didn’t know you didn’t like scary movies.”

Bucky gave you a forgiving smile, “it’s okay Y/N, I should’ve told you I was. I thought I could handle it. Obviously not, hm?” Making the both of you quietly laugh.

After realizing it was almost four in the morning, you figured you should try and get at least a few hours of sleep.

Slowly getting up from the couch, you feel Bucky’s hand once again meet yours. As you turn towards him, you hear him whimper and stand up in a rush.

“Would you uh, would you stay with me, p-please? I don’t want to be alone after that.” he says with worry thick in his voice.

You blush, nodding a yes and head back to the couch. Bucky grabs the blanket used previously and wraps it around the both of you.

You both end up deciding on Bucky laying on his back with his head on the arm of the couch and your body to the side with your head resting softly on his chest.

This is much more comfortable than I thought, hmm.

He hums contently, while you slowly draw on his chest with random patterns. “Thank you, Y/N.” You hear Bucky whisper quietly. After a few minutes, you hear soft snoring, realizing he fell asleep.

Soon after, sleep starts to consume you, but before you drift off you sigh, thinking.

This was the reason why no one ever left Bucky alone with you around. They were, especially Steve, afraid that you would hurt him or force him to do something even if he didn’t want to. They knew you had more than enough power to do so. Hell, even Tony was ready to protect him. But this did not stop you from developing a crush on the unmarked Omega. You knew what the team thought of you. Female Alphas were never kind-hearted. At least you hadn’t met one. But your late father was an Alpha. A cruel and toxic one at that. Never treat your mother with respect. Your heart always ached to see her go through all that but your little self couldn’t do anything. When you showed as an Alpha, your father was over the moon. All he ever told you about was how you will ‘claim’ an omega, make them yours, and have your way with them one day. Too afraid to be hurt, you always nodded along to him. There was always a decision made in your head and that was that you will never, ever, ever hurt any innocent. Whether that be an omega, beta, or alpha.

That day though, there was somehow an exception. After a long mission, a movie night was scheduled. It had started with everyone enjoying and chilling. But, with time, everyone retreated to their rooms. Except for you and bucky. Somehow, both of you had gravitated towards each other. After the credits rolled in, you turned to Bucky, “Hey! Uh… Can I ask you something?” “Uhm… sure.” “There is this Omega I really like.” Bucky felt his heartbreak. He liked you but the others were so protective of him as he was the last unmarked omega among them that they barely let you near him. How were you supposed to like him back like this? Anyway, he gave you his undivided attention. “I sometimes feel like they are scared of me but I don’t know. What do you think I should do? Should I ask them out or not?” Keeping his hurt aside, he truthfully answered, “I think you should go for it. I mean, tell them. What if they like you back?” “I just did.” He turned to you with a shocked expression. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After that lucky day, you two started secretly dating. Going on dates whenever possible. Both of you knew that if you told the team they would go feral on you. Thinking that you are manipulating him to be in this relation. Also, you never went further than a kiss to the lips. Never even rub your wrist on his scent gland. You knew that if you did that, the alphas and omegas on the team would be able to smell you on him. You had never gone in his room, where his nest was. Though you had given him a sweat shirt of yours after he had asked for it. "I need something to keep me calm and remind of your scent, don't I? He had said. You were more than happy to give it to him. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bucky should not interfere. He knew that. But he couldn't let the two omegas be harassed in front of him. Especially not when he is an avenger. "Leave them be." he growled at the four alphas. "Why? what you gonna do omega? aww... are you gonna defend them?" Their eyes then fell to his very visible scent gland to see it unmarked. By now, all the 3 alphas were focussed on him and the girls had run away. They turn to each other and snicker before 2 of them pounce on him. one grabbing his right hand and standing on his right foot while the other did the same to his other side, effectively caging him between them. "Stay still". It is an alpha command and even if he tries, he cannot not obey it. The third one comes near him and fists his hair, yanking them back. He then pulls at the collar of Bucky's shirt and pulls at it hard, tearing it effectively. Bucky gulps hard. He can only hope that you had got the message. Before coming to save the girls, he had typed out a quick Help and had his thumb hovering just above the send button in case he can't handle it. Did you even get the message? If you did were gonna come save him? Will you be able to find him? Do you even want to find him?

The alpha in front of him had just opened his fly and was about to push his pant down when he was shoved into the nearest wall. The two holding him scurried away as quickly as they could, even tripping over their feet once. That's when Bucky saw you and broke down into sobs. You quickly rushed to him and held him tightly to yourself as he cried, soothing him as best as you can. When he had composed himself a little, you reached forward and buttoned up his pants back. Looking around for his shirt, you find it, or rather its shreds, thrown haphazardly at the ground. You take your court off and drape it around him. Once you both were in the safety of your car, you started driving but didn't say anything though your scent gave away your emotions.

Bucky could smell the distinct scent of burning wood and knew what it meant. his alpha was angry. He was the cause of his alphas anger. Bad omega. A silly, idiotic omega is what he is. Gulping, he thought of apologising to you, maybe you won't be that angry on him if he did that? Maybe you won't punish him as he had heard that other alphas do?

"I am sorry" "Huh?" you asked confused. "I am sorry, Alpha". "Don't be. You don't have to apologise for that. It wasn't your fault". "B... but you're angry" Understanding what he meant and what he must be thinking you pull the car over and turn to him. "I am not angry at you Bucky. I am angry at those assholes who thought that it is ok to harass an omega. I am not like those Alphas who punish their omegas for other people's shit. Tell me. Have I ever hurt you?". He shook his head. "Exactly. And I don't plan on doing it in the future either. That is, unless, you are into that kinda thing. " You smirk and he blushes. he smacks your arm and you chuckle. "Now give me smile and we will go to your favourite diner. How does that sound?" He smiles and says, "Good."

You were happy to have your happy omega back and he was happy to have an alpha like you. kind and caring.
