Something good came from it.
18+ MDNI y/n x bucky barnes. (Longer than I intended) ((I didn't proof reader, ao I very sorry if this sucks ass))
.
bucky finds you at a bar, being not so lightly hit on, by a man that just won't take no for an answer, bucky looses his shit, and you get to see a little taste of the winter soldier, you'd always been attracted to the ex assassin, but when you see the way he defends you, that feeling only deepens.
(I guess it's safe to say that he's your knight in shining β¨οΈARMorβ¨οΈ)
Today had not gone as planned, you tried your hardest to be buckys friend, or at least someone he could tolerate, you two didn't get along all that well, both stubborn, hardheaded as all hell, constantly bickering, yelena liked to describe it as a "love hate thing going on" but maybe she was right, because right now you hated him.
It started off simple, you wanted to do something, so you asked yelena if she wanted to hang out, she would've but she had "Business to attend to" whatever that meant, you really didn't want to know.
You asked Wanda, but apparently she had a and you quote "hot date" which meant she'd be occupied with vision.
So you went to steve. You were pretty sure he'd be up to do something "steve, my favorite million year old super soldier" *you'd always poke fun at their age, he didn't seem to mind* "you wanna go check out that Japanese restaurant I told you about?, I need to get out if this place, I'm convinced I just might die if I dont" *you laughed a little*
Steve glanced up from his phone, a little amused smile on his face* "being dramatic again i see?" *he said fondly, glancing to his device* "I sorry, i would y/n, but I've got a meeting, but maybe you should bucky? He'd probably go" *you gave a slightly disappointed look, listening to him you sighed at the ask bucky part* "I dunno i think I'd rather stay in honestly" *Steve pocketed his phone, looking at you* "listen, I knowctou two don't really see eye to eye, but you should at least try, you work together, you need to be able to get along for more than five seconds. I'm not asking you to be his bestfriend, but I am saying you should try to get along with him, besides he might enjoy being included" *he gave you a gentle arm pat* "try? Come on I have, plenty of times, he doesn't like me, actually I think he kind of hates me, but I do like to iritate him, so maybe I'll take you up on that" *you said, lightly amused* *Steve shook his head* "I doubt he hates you, bucky is just...difficult. Just try and give him a chance, hes not all bad once you get to know him you know. *he said before wlaking away, leaving you alone*
.
*you thought about it for a while, asking bucky to hang out with you, you debated it, contemplated it. But eventually you said "fuck it. It can't hurt. Worst he can do is say no. Right?" *you walked around a bit, looking for the other super soilder, when it dawned on you, he'd probably be in the gym, you've found him there plenty of times, so you made your way to where to hoped he'd be. Pushing open the big doors walking in, it seemed your suspensions had been correct, because there he was, in an old blue tanktop and baggy pants that of course looked good on him, his strong hands grasping onto a metal bar, pulling himself up, you stood there, watching him for a few long minutes, eyes trained onto the man before you, you could watch him do this all day, but of course your little show was cut short, as was your mini conversation that you'd been having with yourself in your own head, when buckys words came flooding in, disrupting your not so PG thought process* "huh?.." *you mumbled sounding as dumb as a doornail*
*bucky pulled himself over the bar, holding his position for a few long moments before lowering* "are you just going to stand there all day or did you need something?" *he sounded irritated, when didn't he?"
*you had been momentarily content, until he opened his mouth, you rolled your eyes crossing your arms* "aren't you a ray of sunshine" *sarcasm laced in your tone* "whatever anyways yeah I do need something, I'm bored, I've been cooped up in this place for weeks, everyone is busy and I dont want to go out alone, not that I mind, its just more fun with someone" *you said looking at him* "so, do you want to join me?"
*bucky raised a brow, dropping from the bar, grabbing a rag and wiping the back of his neck* "let me guess, you asked everyone else and they said no, so you're here asking me because you have No one else?, gee I'm flattered " *sarcam dripped from his tone* "something tells me id have more fun where I am right here then in whatever God awful place you want to drag me too"
*you gave him one of the most sarcastic eye rolls that you could muster, dragging it out too, to show your utter annoyance towards the man* "you're an asshole you know that?, I feel like you're so miserable you want to make everyone else feel miserable too. Excuse me for trying to be nice and include you, Mr 'i dont like fun because I'm old and boring' I can easily go out and find someone else to have fun with" *you turned on your heel, walking back out through the large swinging doors, muttering a string of insults under your breath, as you made your way down the hall* "Wait!" *you hear from behind you, bucky, it was buckys voice you heard, which surprised you* "ill go with you" *he said, following after, he wouldn't dare let it be known that he felt the need to keep you safe, watch over you, he'd let you believe it was because of what you had said* "let me change, and I'll come" *he said, heading off towards his room, which was about two floors above where you both were now, you gave a soft satisfied smile, and nodded, heading your own way, you went to your room. Looking for something to change into, a pair of light, washed jeans. You threw on a black Metallica shirt. Something you probably stole from tony, you slid on a pair of shoes, before grabbing a jacket, your wallet and your other needed items. Before heading back out, you met bucky in the main living room, where most of you all congregate, you head towards the elevator just as bucky is coming into site, you click the button. Waiting for the doors to open. Stepping in just as bucky reached you, you glanced towards him. Clearing your throat lightly. Giving him a once over, a nice fitting blue shirt, a pair of black jeans. And black boots. His hair had been combed a bit, but still messy in the way you liked to see, anther thing you wouldn't admit* "you clean up well" *you said glancing away, pushing the first floor button, the two of you standing in a comfortable silence until you reached your floor, the doors opened, the two of you stepping out together* "where are we going anyway?" *bucky spoke, looking around as you stepped outside, following your lead* "hello?" *looked at you, rolling his own eyes this time when you wouldn't answer him* "anywhere but here" *you said, leading him to one of the many nice, all too expensive cars that were parked perfectly in a line* "let's see...." *you took your keys out of your coat pocket, clicking the button, a nice pretty old black car beeped* "isn't that- isn't all of these Tony's? How'd you get those?" *he pointed to the keys* "he owed me, I wanted free reign to whatever car I want to drive, whenever I want to, Tony gave me the keys, a key to each one. He really owed me" *you said, leading bucky towards the car. Opening the door, you slide into the car, putting the keys in the ignition, as bucky climbed into the car, you turned the key, the engine roaring to life, purring beautifully* "doesn't that just excite you?" *you looked over to bucky, you hooked your seatbelt, before turning, looking ahead, you put the car in reverse, backing out of the parking space. God you loved these cars, before bucky even knew it you threw her into drive, before speeding forward, down he long driveway, and onto a small back road. Bucky latched his seatbelt like a madman, he had survived russian enslavement, he bedamned if your driving is what kills him* "you wanna slow down?!" *he yelled over the sound of the roaring engine and wind flooding in through through the windows* "No not really!" *you yelled back, amused, you were enjoying yourself*
*it didnt take too ling for you to arrive in the city. You drove though the downtown area. Looking around* "hmhn" *you pull into a parking space, turning the engine off, you open the door, stepping out, looking around you breath in the fresh crisp fall air, turning your gaze to bucky who had just stepped out, and was looking around, he followed your lead, the two of you walking down the sidewalk, taking in the sites* "we could go to a bar?, I wouldn't mind a drink" *you said. Looking towards him*
*bucky thought about it for a moment, putting his hands in his pockets, flashing a slight grin, he shrugged, nodding in agreementto her words* "screw it, yeah me too. I could go for a bite too" *he followed you, as you lead him into a cozy dect sized bar and grill. There were people but not too many. She glanced around pointing over to a table, heading over to it, she sat down, watching as bucky did the same*
*it wasn't long after you ordered, you got your food. Your waitress came back, and asked you what drinks you both prefer, bucky went for something hard, whiskey in the rocks, when you were asked what youd like to have, you looked at the waitress, you thought momentarily* "a white Russian please" *you slowly looked at bucky giving him a look, glancing him over, before looking away, picking up a French fry eating it, Something about being here with bucky, having lunch and drinks, felt good, it felt right. You were content and enjoying yourself, well you were until the waitress came back. Placing your drinks down in front of you, and placing buckys down kn front of him, her smile and eyes lingering on him for longer then you liked* "if you need anything at all, by all means just ask" *she used 'That' tone with bucky, before turning and walking away* *you rolled your eyes in annoyance, it shouldn't had bothered you, but it didn't, especially since he had the audacity to watch her walk away. Why did it bother you? He wasn't your boyfriend he had all right to do as he pleased, god it bothered you to your core* "Jesus christ" *you picked up your drink, binging the glass to your lips, throwing it back. You stood up* "I'm getting another drink" *you said. Not giving him time to answer, you walked over to the bar, placing the glass down* "ill take a jacket on the rocks, please" *you said to the woman behind the bar*
*you thanked her, taking the glass, just as you were about to take a sip, you were disturbed, you glanced over partly hoping it was bucky, but no of course it wasn't, it was a man, mid thirties, beared, dirty looking. He pleacwd his hand on your waist, clearly confident in this moment* "a pretty thing like you over here by yourself drinking your sorrows away?, I'll tell you what, I'll buy you another round then you and me can head back to my place for some real fun"
*you could feel yourself internally gagging. Men like this repulsed you to your core. You placed your drink back down. Beforevyou reached down, grabbing his wrist and jerking his hand off of you* "did your mother forget to teach you hands to your fucking self" *your tone was like acid in his face, your nails had dug into his skin, you had no tolerance towards cocky entitled little boys who tried to call themselves a man* "you can fuck off now thank you, the only thing you are gonna be taking home tonight is a black eye and a broken nose.If you touch me again"
*that must've been the wrong thing to say, the man's face went red with anger, that sure as hell wasn't flattering, his persona shifted, thr drink he held in his hand he threw back quickly. Slamming the glass down onto the bars surface. he walked forward, crowding you, his hand reached out, grasping you tightly and firmly by the hair, pain shot through your head. He was going to further harm you, that was clear. You didnt even register what you said next, until it came out* "Bucky!" *you confused yourself, you could handle this, you could. It would take absolutely nothing for you, to put this man on his ass. But that's not what happend, you called out for bucky, and he heard you. He heard your scared voice, he stood up, turning and rushing forward into your direction, shoving past people, he was on high alert, eyes wide looking for the danger, his eyes landed on you and the situation you were in, rage, that is what he felt, coursing through his veins, something in his big brown eyes darkened, his oura shifted, pure and utter rage*
*Buckys arm shot outwards. Grabbing your attacker by the front of his shirt, walking him backwards, away from you* "bucky..." *your tone was shaky, nervous. Your eyes were full of worry, because you knew what he was capable of. It worried you a little, you didnt know what he'd do* "Bucky I'm fine see I'm fine"
*your shaken up tone only seemed to anger him more. His anger was not targeted towards you, never at you. It made him even more furious towards the son of a bitch who caused that shakiness*
"Pieces of shit like you dont deserve the fucking freedom to walk the streets"
*his right hand lifted, grabbing him by the back of the neck* *he lifted his metal arm slamming into the other man's chest, forcing him to the ground* *the attacker screamed in agony, the impact had either dislocated or boke his shoulder, bucky didnt care* "do you think you have the right to touch and hurt whoever you want?!"
*the attacker looked afraid, that was something that seemed to please the super soilder. The attacker made no move to get up. Of course he had a friend, another guy who tried to come up behind bucky* *the super soilder turned sharply throwing two punches, one punch hit connecting with the man's stomach, the other hit his chest. The soilder turned, round kicking the man, causing him to fly backwards into one of the walls. He stood there, scanning your surrounding area, people looked at him some in fear. Shock, and awe. When he realizes there is no more danger, his eyes landed on you, he steps forward, but before he could reach you, you were already coming to him*
*his arms reached out, wrapping around your upper back, pulling you in close* "I'm sorry I didn't realize sooner, I'm sorry" *his tone was so much softer, calm, gentle, then the one he used with your attacker* "come on, we're going" *he kept you close, bringing you to his side, leading you away from the chaotic scene*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*the drive home was quiet for the most part, yet again a comfortable silence surrounded them. When the arrived back at the compound, bucky parked the car, got out, he came around to your side, opening your door, offering his hand to you* *you took it, stepping out of the car, you held his hand just a little tighter, and his hand seemed to squeeze just a little, neither wanting to let go of the other*
*bucky took you back to the main living floor, into the living room, where he brought you to the couch, sitting you down* "i- i'm still sorry, I should've known, I should've been with you" *he glanced down at his hands, sitting beside of you* "im just s-" *you cut him off, pleacing a hand over his own* "Bucky...shut up. I know you are.... and you shouldn't be, you didnt know, but you came to me, and you protected me. So please stop apologizing, because im not sorry. I'm glad- I'm glad it happened, kinda of, I mean I wish it wouldn't had, but it did, and I'm kinda okay with it because it made me realize... that i- bucky today made me realize just how much I want something, something i dont even know if I can even have or not, im owrried itll screw up a good thing, a friendship, whatever it is we have...but right now I'm willing to take that risk"
*bucky seemed to be on the same path as you were. Because his hand moved, taking yours into his own, his eyes trailed from yours, down to your lips, his gaze lingering before he looked back up into your eyes again. Lightly licking his bottom lip in contemplation* "im willing to take that risk too" *he leaned in a little, as you leaned in too, eyes closing, alowly meeting in a slow passionate well deserved kiss. You were sure you could see fireworks behind your eyelids*
