.・.:*â âSorry, I was justâŚâ Bucky let the cat down so the animal could explore the apartment while getting him some milk. âI was wondering if you would like to have a family one day, you know? A child, especially. You would be a great father, for sure.
He shrugged, trying to shake the feeling off. âI do love you, Steve. I just sometimes think you do deserve better. I am not exactly an easy person to be with, but - you knew that already, right?â
Steve shifted, fully facing Bucky now as he spoke. He had sort of been expecting a conversation on deserving and not deserving at some point, but honestly discussing a family wasnât something heâd thought much on.  âI...If Iâm being honest Buck, I really donât know. Itâs not something I think would ever be possible? With the serum and everything. And while you have that confidence in me, I donât know that I do.  Not sure Iâd be a great parent when it comes down to it.â
Reaching out, he took Buckyâs hand, leaning forward to meet his eyes.  âIâve never loved anyone like I love you Bucky. You are what I want, and I donât think there is much better than you James Barnes. Neither of us are easy, but easy isnât whatâs important.  Whatâs important is that we love and look after each other, and that love is for every part of you. Flaws and all.  If you want a family with me, that can happen. Itâs a different process, but itâs likely possible. Thereâs a future here Bucky, and whether we have dozens of stray cats or we have a family Iâll be happy, cause Iâll be with you.â
