Catch up here: Caught Cold - Alternative version
The flight back to the tower is excruciatingly awkward. No one looks your way, and no one dares to say a word. Usually, youâd celebrate a successful mission, or crack not-funny jokes.
Itâs bad enough that Bucky lost control and mated you like a wild animal. Tony and Steve walking in on you was the worst-case scenario.
How can you forget that two of the men you admire the most watched you and their friend Avenger mate?
âSoââ Steve clears his throat. He tries to find the right words to apologize for not stopping his friend from mating you. âIâm sorry about the problems with the earpieces, Agent. I didnât hear you called for backup.â
You snort. A broken earpiece is the least of your problems. You just had unprotected sex with your supervisor, and he claimed you. All the while he was under the influence of a strange toxin.
âSex pollen, a hell of a ride, huh?â Tony cackles watching you and Bucky stare on the ground. Heat creeps into your cheek remembering the way you were writhing on Buckyâs cock. âSoâŚare we having a Buckethead baby soon?â
âFirst and final warning, Stark,â Bucky lifts his head to glare at Tony. Heâs ashamed of his doings and hates himself for being unable to fight the sex pollen. âShe went through enough.â
âYou mean she ended up impaled on yourââ Tony ends up on the ground, his cheek swollen and bruised. âWhat the fuck!â
âI told you,â Bucky raises his fist again, a not-so-silent threat, âstop making things worse for Y/N. Itâs all my fault. If you want to make fun of someone, look for a better target. Leave my omega alone!â
You whimper when Bucky roughly takes off his jacket to wrap it around your shoulders. He looks you all over, clumsily patting your hair before he sits next to you.
His scent and the warmth of his jacket calm you. You close your eyes and inhale his scent deeply. If only you didnât drop the vial with the pollen. Everything has changed, and you donât know what will happen now.
Can you still be an agent? Will Bucky force you into submission? What if he rejects you now? He claimed you while being high on sex pollen. There is nothing you can do if he decides to break the bond.
âEverything is going to be alright,â Bucky suddenly takes your hand to hold it in his hands. âWe will talk about everything after we land.â
âYoung love,â Tony snickers. His cheek is swollen, but he didnât lose his sense of humor. âHuh, Capsicle. Why donât you grab a dose of sex pollen yourself?â
âTony, thatâs not funny,â Steve grunts. âWhy would I want to use this devious toxin to force myself on an omega?â
Bucky flinches at Steveâs words. He feels guilt gnawing at his soul. Today, he added another sin to his long list.
âHe didnât force himself on me,â you murmur and lean your head against Buckyâs shoulder. The sex pollen wouldâve killed him. We had sex to help him survive. Live with it.â You glare at Tony. He opens his mouth but snaps it shut.
âWe are about to land in fifteen,â Bruce calls from the pilot seat. He didnât dare to ask what happened in the abandoned building. The sharp man didnât have to ask. âPlease fasten your seatbelt.â
You laugh at Bruce's seriousness. This whole situation feels surreal.
Who would have thought youâd end up with Buckyâs claiming mark?
âUhâthis is the bedroom, and there is the bathroom,â Bucky explains while guiding you around his apartment at the tower. You donât tell him that his place is similar to yours. âThereâs a kitchenette and you already saw the living room.â
âDonât get me wrong, but why are you showing me your place?â You wrinkle your forehead.
âYouâre my omega, and we will move in together.â He nods to himself before placing his on the small of your back to lead you back into the living room. âIf we decide to have pups, we can have a bigger home. A house maybe.â
âWhoa, slow down,â you twirl around to place your hands on his chest. For a moment you allow yourself to feel Bucky up. Hands running over his chest you look at Bucky, really look at him. âWeâweâŚâ
âWe mated,â he ends your line. âYouâre my omega, and I will be a good alpha and take care of you. I claimed you.â
âThe drugsâŚthe sex pollen,â you sigh when he places his index finger on your lips to silence you.
âIt doesnât matter, Y/N,â Bucky murmurs. âYou know that youâre meant to be mine.â He dips his head to steal a kiss. He whispers your name and wraps his arms around you. âSteve will help me get your things. You can get comfortable while we bring everything here.â
âYouâre working fast.â
He grins. âI do.â Bucky wiggles his eyebrows. âThis way I tamed a cocky omega and made her mine.â
âDream on,â you giggle, relieved Bucky doesnât regret his claim.
âOh, daydreaming is over,â he purrs low in his throat. âI got the real thing nowâŚâ
âIâm still unsure this was the right thing to do.â Bruce shakes his head at Steve. âWhat if he regrets his claim one day?â
âBucky was pining over her for months. I had to force him to make a move before that new agent got the chance to ask her out,â Steve casually says while deleting the footage of your latest mission. âHe wanted to claim her, and Y/N wanted Bucky to become her alpha. We did nothing wrongâŚâ
âYou only made her believe she dropped a vial with sex pollen when in truth you rubbed it into Buckyâs tactical suit.â
âThe end justifies the means,â Steve says before walking away.

The Secret Life of Pets Teaser Trailer
WE ARE OUTSIDERS. There's no crime being an outsider.⤠We are the revolution đŞ
Pairing:Â Bucky Barnes x Female!Reader
Word Count:Â ~1.6k
Warnings:Â stepping on a mine, thinking you're gonna die, thinking the love of your life is gonna die, angst, fluff at the end
Summary:Â Fury has you and the team going through a minefield to look for lost data the Soviets left behind. Your scanners pick up most of the mines, but luck has it that you step on the most dangerous one of all.
Squares Filled:Â explosion (2020) for @star-spangled-bingo
Authorâs Note:Â I realize that landmines explode as soon as someone makes contact with them, HOWEVER, this is my story and it's fiction so I get to make the rules and I say only when the pressure is relieved do they explode like in the movies.
x
Miles of wasteland stand before you, acres of land that are charred from the explosions that happened between the Soviets and US Intelligence. The Soviets stole data with the intention of selling it to assassins and killers, so Fury tasked your team to go collect that stolen data. When the Soviets knew the Us was closing in on them, they scattered the data across acres knowing it would take them forever to try and retrieve it.
Youâre about to step foot onto the charred land when Bucky stops you.
âLook at this.â He points to a sign a few yards away. âThis is a minefield. Be careful. I donât really wanna clean bits and pieces of the team.â
âShould we turn back?â you ask. âWe only have technology scanners for the area. We can grab mine scanners.â
âNo, weâre already here. Just be careful. Our scanners should be able to detect them.â
âEasy for you to say. You can fly,â you joke with Tony.
The land is so large that you have to split up on your own. Tonyâs right, the scanners you have are able to detect most of the mines. Some of them are hidden so youâre not going to touch those areas if you donât know if there is a landmine or not. Everyone is connected with earpieces so you can communicate if something is wrong, so youâre just listening to the casual conversation some are having as if youâre taking a walk in the park instead of through a deadly minefield.
âAre you and Laura finally taking that vacation youâve been talking about?â Natasha asks.
âYeah. Cooper is old enough to watch the other two. I was thinking of taking her up north.â
âI think sheâd like that.â
You scan the ground as you walk slowly and find one of the boxes buried containing data. You kneel and dig the box up before plugging your flash drive into the data box. Once itâs done downloading, you take it out and continue to search for other data boxes. Your scanner is picking up most of the landmines but there is one patch of land that is coming up blank.
Stupid you walks right over it thinking itâs safe. You step onto fresh soil and hear something click from below you. You pause and look down to see what you stepped on. Itâs buried underneath the ground but you can definitely feel something under your foot. Since this place is so big, there is no one around you to help you. No one knows youâve stepped on one. No one knows you need help.
Your first instinct is to run like hell and hope you can survive, but youâll only have a second before the mine goes off. Tears start rolling down your cheeks at the thought of dying. Youâre still young, you still want to see the world, get married to the love of your life, and live life to the fullest with him by your side.
âHey, guys?â you sniffle and wipe your tears even though more fall. âIâm in trouble here.â
âWhatâs going on?â Bucky asks in concern.
âI stepped on a mine.â Everyone becomes alert. Your body shakes in fear and your voice cracks under the pressure. âWhat do I do?â
âIâm on my way. Donât move,â Bucky says. Only Bucky comes to your aid because he doesnât want to put anyone else at risk of stepping on a mine. Bucky can see just how terrified you are when he gets to you. âDoll, youâre gonna be okay. Donât worry, I got you.â
âI donât want to die,â you cry.
âYouâre not gonna die. I promise I wonât let that happen. Take some deep breaths for me, Doll.â The first and second ones are shaky but the third and fourth ones are much smoother. âGood girl. Youâre doing great. Keep doing that. Iâm gonna dig the mine out so I can see what weâre dealing with. This wonât explode. Iâm just digging around it.â
âOkay,â you sigh shakily.
Bucky gets on his knees and uses his knife to dig out the soil around the mine. Tony, Rhodey, and Sam fly over to see how bad the situation is while the rest of the Avengers make their way back to the start of the minefield.
âWhatâs going on here? What do you see?â Sam asks Bucky.
Bucky digs out enough soil to see exactly the kind of mind you stepped on.
âItâs a bounding mine.â
âShit,â Sam sighs.
âWhat does that mean?â you panic.
âNothing--â
âDonât bullshit me, Bucky. What does that mean?â
âItâs a more deadly mine than the others. It shoots the main propeller about four feet into the air, and metal shards fly out of it over the span of six hundred feet. Itâs very deadly.â
âCan you disable it?â Steve asks over comm.
âNo.â
âOh, God,â you cry and cover your mouth. You take two deep breaths to calm yourself down. âBucky, get the hell out of here.â
âLike hell, Iâm leaving you.â
âBucky, please,â you whimper and take his hand. He stands to his full height in front of you. âI donât want to die but I donât want you to die more. You need to get out of here. Thereâs no use for this mine to take both of us out. Tony, get him the hell out of here.â
Tony is about to take Bucky when your boyfriend holds up a hand to stop him.
âWait. Can I at least get a kiss goodbye?â
Instead of giving him a verbal answer, you pull him close and kiss him like itâs gonna be your last. He slides his hand into your hair and grips it gently so he can control the kiss. He kisses you in a way that makes your head dizzy. The kind of kiss that makes you forget about everything but the feel of his lips.
If heâs gonna kiss you one more time, may as well make it memorable. You pull away from him and open your eyes to study the shade of blue in his. You expect him to pull away and leave your side but you frown when he doesnât. You look down to see him standing on top of the mine and you are free. He must have switched positions with you while kissing you.
âNo, what did you do?â you gasp.
âI promised you I wouldnât let you die.â
âNo, Iâm not letting you do this!â
âTony, get her out of here.â
As soon as Tonyâs hands are on you, youâre fighting him.
âNo! Bucky!â Tony grips you tightly and flies off with you in his arms. The image of Bucky gets smaller and smaller until you canât see him anymore. As soon as Tony sets you down, youâre running toward Bucky. Steve jumps into action and practically tackles you to the ground. âNo! Let me go! Please! Bucky!!!â
âY/N, stop fighting.â
âNo! You gotta let me go. I have to be with him!â Suddenly, an explosion happens and you sob loudly. âNO! Bucky!!â
You fall to the ground in a fit of sobs at the loss of your boyfriend. Steveâs arms are still wrapped around your body to prevent you from going after him. As soon as one explosion happened, another one followed suit, and another one, and another one. The air is covered with thick smoke that is very hard to see through so youâre not sure if Bucky is even alive.
Everyone is silent for their fallen friend. The only thing that can be heard is your heartbreaking sobs.
âLook, I see something,â Clint points out something in the smoke.
You look up and see something emerging from the smoke. Once the smoke clears, you can see Bucky walking toward the group with his vibranium arm in his flesh hand.
âDid you really think I was gonna let a mine take me from my girl?â he coughs.
The spikes on his body open to welcome his arm and he locks it into place. He whips his arm around to make sure itâs on properly, and you scramble out of Steveâs arms. You run into Buckyâs arms and cry against his chest. Youâre too overwhelmed to say anything but hug, kiss, and embrace him. When youâve calmed down, you pull away from him and slap him in the chest.
âNever do that again!â
âI had no choice. I knew I could have survived but you wouldnât have.â
âYou could have at least told me that!â
âI didnât know if it was gonna work or not,â he says quietly.
Everyone got what they needed from the minefield, so you head back to the Compound. You havenât said one word to Bucky after leaving the minefield, and he hates when you give him the silent treatment.
âDoll, please talk to me,â he begs. He follows you into your shared bedroom, and you quickly head into the bathroom. Before he can join you, you close the door and lock it so he canât get in. Of course, he can get in with his metal arm but heâs respecting your privacy. âIâm sorry, but I had to save your life.â He rests his forehead on the door and he can hear you crying softly inside. âY/N, please come out.â
You donât. He sits on the floor right outside the bathroom door and waits for you to come out. He sits there for hours waiting patiently for you to come out of the bathroom. When you do, you take a seat next to him on the floor.
âWhat we have is a partnership, Bucky.â You look into his eyes. âYour life isnât fully yours anymore. You have my heart in your hand so if you die, then so will I.â
âThe same thing goes for you, Doll.â
âIf you would have told me what you wanted to do, I would have been more likely to go along with it. You have to be better at communicating. I will do the same.â
âOkay, you got it. Do you want to watch movies for the rest of the night?â
âYes,â you smile.

This chapter is short as life hasnât been kind to me, but Iâm trying to write and I hope you like this :)
series masterlist
Bills. Bills. Bills.
One day â one fine day youâd get to live the life youâve always dreamed of. And a part of that dream was to have enough money to not worry about paying bills on time. But that day was not today.
Your eyes skimmed over all the various mails informing you of the due dates and the amount to be paid. This was not new to you, it happened every month but each time you felt like leaving everything and going somewhere secluded.
With a dramatic sigh, you placed all the bills in a drawer and stacked them neatly in accordance to their due dates and shut it back. Youâll see what to do when the time came.
âDonât worry.â You were jerked out of your thoughts when Wanda placed her warm hand on your shoulder. âI know youâll do it, and I can always help you. You know that right?â
Wanda was your best friend and she knew you better than you knew yourself. She was well off and married to Vision, who had now become your friend too.
You knew Wanda would help you at any moment you asked, but you didnât want to. You could, and you had to solve your problems by yourself.
You ran a small yet cute bakery and today you had to deliver a very big order for a grand party arranged by none other than Bucky Barnes. That man literally ran New York and you were super nervous if he would like your cupcakes and pastries and sandwiches.
It wasnât his first time though, every morning his right hand man, Steve Rogers, came to your place to get a coffee. Apparently the mob boss didnât trust anyone except his best friend to not poison his coffee.
Wanda, ever the best friend, had come over to help you prepare these delicacies. âThank you Wanda. Youâre the best. Iâve done this before and Iâll do it this time too.â You were very lucky to have Wanda in your life.
âI believe in you. Now letâs pack these sweet cakes before I gobble them down.â You both chuckled and got back to precisely placing everything in the boxes. Once it was done, you loaded them in your car and started towards your destination.
Once you reached, you couldnât help but gawk at the magnificence of the house. It was absolutely huge and lavish and honestly the best house youâd ever seen.
The interior of the house was just as impressive as the exterior, expensive rugs and curtains, impressively comfortable couches and seats, and spectacular showpieces which were probably cost more than your house.
You hadnât ever seen Bucky in person, but from what you had seen in pictures, he was dashingly handsome and the aura he exuded was absolutely commanding. He seemed very sure of himself and what he wanted, and probably that was what made him different from the rest.
The party was yet to begin, and you and Wanda were led to kitchen by a man named Walker as you carried the boxes in your hand. You both sighed with relief when you placed the boxes on the counter as the most dreaded order was finally complete.
âThatâs all. Thank you for your service.â He replied in a practiced tone and then turned around and started to walk away. You passed Wanda a look. âYouâre welcome. But what about the payment?â
âYour cakes getting served at Bossâ house is an honour itself. Be contended with that.â You stared at him with utter disbelief. âWhat the fuck do you mean by that? Youâre not going to pay me?â
You had worked your ass off since early morning and had made preparations from even before and this man had the audacity to tell you that he wasnât giving you your hard earned money.
âFirst of all, I wonât tolerate that tone with me. Lower your voice down. And second, Iâm not going to pay you. Consider this a gift from your side to boss and just leave.â
There was not a single chance in hell that you were going to leave without your money. âBut Steve always pays me. Where is Steve? I want to talk to him.â Steve was genuinely a good guy and you knew heâd help you.
âHe doesnât have time for some worthless things like these. Now go before I make you leave.â You clenched your teeth and formed fists with your hands. âYou know what? Iâll sue you in court and then letâs see who wins.â
It was the worst threat you could give, but you didnât have anything else. Wanda pulled your hand and call for your attention and mouthed a âletâs go.â You stubbornly shook your head and refused.
âYou are gonna sue me? And how are you gonna do that, you poor helpless thing? tsk tsk tsk. The judges are all on our payroll and theyâll make sure youâre the one who is ruined.â Walker said condescendingly.
Once he completed his ranting, a small wicked smile spread on your lips. You pulled out your phone from your pocket and held it in front of his face. âAll that you just said is recorded right in this phone.â
Walkerâs eyes widened, âDelete that.â He was visibly tense at your unexpected move. âI donât think so.â Wanda was scared for her life while you had smugness written on your face.
He swiped his hand ahead to get a hold of your mobile but you swiftly put it behind your back. âBreak it all you want but Iâve already forwarded it to my friends.â
âListen to me you bitch, you better delete that, or else you wonât like what would happen next.â Though walker was threatening you, you could see sweat beginning to form at his temples.
âI could send this to your rivals and theyâd love to screw you up as this is a clear proof of your illegal activities like bribing the judges in court. But I will definitely delete this if you pay me double my money. So the ball is in your court, you poor helpless thing.â You said repeating his words.
âDouble? Thatâs impossible.â He said exasperated. âOkay then Iâll send it.â You pretended to scroll through your phone. âOkay wait. Iâll pay you. Delete that.â
âFine.â Walker searched his wallet for a wad of cash and handed it over to you. You mock saluted him and showed him your phone devoid of any voice message and turned around to leave.
Once you and Wanda were out of that house, Wanda started yelling at you. âWere you out of your mind? You couldâve died there. Do you know who these people are?â
âDonât worry Wanda, we are safe arenât we? And I got double the money I was expecting! This is gonna pay a lot of my bills. And I didnât record anything, that walker was a fool to believe my words. It was written across his face that heâs all talk no action.â
While you were happy with your little stunt, you were unaware of the amused eyes following your every move. A huge smile was gracing Buckyâs face as he looked at you from behind the curtains.
Bucky had been walking through his house with Steve at his side when he had heard a commotion coming from the kitchen. This party was important to him as it would strengthen his relations with Tony Stark and he wanted it to go smoothly.
Annoyed with whoever it was causing a ruckus in his house, he had walked up to the door with the intention of firing them. But then heâd heard what you were saying and stopped himself from going in further.
Bucky had ordered John Walker to see that todayâs party went well. He had giving John enough money to pay for everything needed but what he hadnât expected was for John to be such a bastard and pocket that money himself. Bucky wasnât a man who forgave people and John was definitely going to get fired.
Bucky was honestly impressed with your quick wit; and that was saying something. He had met a lot of people from different walks of life and not many surprised him anymore, but you did.
Once you had left the kitchen, Bucky had followed quietly behind you. And for a moment even he had thought you had a recording until he heard you say otherwise to your friend.
âWhoâs she?â Bucky finally asked Steve as he saw through his window as you and your friend left in your car. âShe runs the bakery I get you bagels from every morning.â
Bucky still had a taste of your confectionaries on his tongue. He loved your baking but hadnât thought even in his wildest dreams that you would be so beautiful and bright.
He saw the all encompassing fire burning in your eyes, and he craved it. âFind everything you can about her. And make everyone understand that sheâs mine.â
Perfect Doll
Beefy!Bucky x Chubby!Reader
Summary: You invite Bucky to your family memberâs wedding when things are just as toxic as you remember them to be. Bucky stands up to them, having enough of their toxicity.
Warnings: Self esteem issues, body image issues, self doubt, toxic family, chubby!reader, angst with a happy ending, mutual pining, fake dating au, friends to lovers.
Words: 1,749
Authorâs Notes: This is written for @the-ss-horniest-book-club and my prompt was: Chubby!reader asks beefy!bucky to be her fake boyfriend for her random family member wedding.
She asks him because she has a crush, he says yes because he's crushing too (those pining losers)
They'll be gone for a whole weekend and her family won't believe her because look at him, why would he want you?
Until bucky can't take it anymore and rips them a new one for treating his perfect doll like that.
I think Iâve covered everything in this! I hope you like it đĽ°
The moment Bucky walked in and your eyes met, your breath hitched. The effect this man had on you was staggering; how your heart would always skip a beat, trying to speak clearly but ending up speaking backwards and embarrassing yourself. It was hard to concentrate when you had this beefy super soldier in front of you; his shirt pulled over his abs and his jeans hugging his thick thighs tightly. You were always a mess, not that Bucky seemed to mind too much. Bucky always seemed rather pleased with himself whenever he could render you speechless and an adorable stuttering mess. Though, in his eyes everything you did was adorable.
But today you were a nervous wreck for a whole new reason. A wedding invitation arrived in the mail today; the wedding of a family member. The invitation was for you and a date, and as your mom also wrote a separate note stating the family wanted to meet the mysterious man you had been talking about, you had no choice but to ask Bucky.
Well, you did have a choice. You could have asked any guy in the compound to be your date but you didnât because you knew what would happen. They would have all rejected, your self esteem had already hit rock bottom and you didnât need to give them another excuse to snigger and comment behind your back.
There was nothing actually wrong with you per-say, but you hated the way your body looked. Your clothes never looked right, youâd buy the next size up in jeans and they would still end up being too tight and uncomfortable around your belly. You didnât own a single bikini or bathing suit.
Bucky was always the one complimenting on how great those jeans looked though, or how that blouse matched your eye colour. Your weight didnât even seem to bother him, heâs never made a comment, heâs never compared you to Natasha or Wanda or even any other thin girl in the compound. Heâs actually been more than happy to snack and binge eat with you during movie nights. But you try not to overthink that part too much, youâre pretty sure heâs just being kind to you since nobody else in the compound was. He was actually your only friend, the only person who would speak to you without judging with his eyes.
Bucky finished speaking to Steve before he walked over to you with a smile and a bounce in his step. Subconsciously, you tug on your T-shirt to pull it away from your round belly.
âHey doll, you okay?â He smiles, putting his hands in his pocket and gnawing on his lip⌠nervously? Why was he nervous? Oh, did he see your invitation? Oh god, maybe he already knew what was going to happen and heâs come here to tell you he canât go with you and youâll end up going alone like the worthless loser you felt.
âDoll? Youâre overthinking something.â Bucky clicks his tongue and moves closer. His chest right in front of your face makes it difficult not to lean in and bury your face in his delicious cologne.
âSorry, Iâm just⌠Iâm just nervous.â You sigh, biting your lip and feeling more uncomfortable with how you look under his careful stare.
âNervous? What happened?â Bucky takes your arm and leads you over to the couches in the common room. Youâre aware youâre alone with him and that makes it slightly easier if he does end up rejecting your proposal. âDoll? Youâre making me nervous now.â He chuckles, trying to lighten the mood.
âOh, right! Sorry! I kind of have this favour to ask and youâre the only one I want to ask but I understand if you say no thereâs no pressure.â
âIâm all ears doll.â
âIâve received⌠I had a wedding invitation arrive in the mail today and I have to bring a date and I was hoping that you would be my fake boyfriend? Itâs for the whole weekend and Iâll pay you back - whatever you need!â
A smile grows on Buckyâs face as he gently wraps his hand around your thigh and squeezes gently. âOf course doll, Iâll come with you.â Your smile matches his, your heart doing somersaults in your chest and those butterflies are fluttering around in the pit of your stomach.
â
The weekend arrived a lot sooner than you would have liked. Normally you would be ecstatic about the weekend and relaxing, but giving the circumstances you were incredibly nervous and anxious. You knew your family would love Bucky, heâs charming and sweet. It was their comments about your appearance you were most anxious about. You just hoped they wouldnât embarrass you in front of your crush.
Bucky grasped your hand and interlaced your fingers before he leaned in. âItâs going to be okay, doll. Iâm here.â He whispers, kissing your temple just as the front door opens and your mother gives you that look you were so familiar with.
âY/N.â She greets coldly, already her vibes not sitting well with Bucky. Your mother doesnât even invite you in for a hug, she sidesteps and lets you both in. âDidnât they have that dress in your size, dear?â She asks and your heart becomes heavy.
âThis *is my size mom.â You answer, feeling Bucky squeeze your hand.
âAnd I think you look gorgeous in it doll.â Bucky kisses your cheek and smiles.
âYou must be Bucky? Hi! Iâm Y/Nâs mom.â She smiles proudly up at him. âYou wait until you meet the bridesmaids!â She tells him and youâre ready to run off and never speak to your family again. Itâs Bucky that keeps you grounded, reminding you heâs here with you every step of the way. Heâs in disbelief at how your own mother treats you, heâs dreading to see how the rest of your family goes down.
He didnât have long to wait to find out. Your father was most welcoming. Pulling you into hugs and telling you how much heâs missed you. The rest of your family, not so much. You hear people whispering and smirking, you know itâs about you being here with Bucky. Youâre on your second sandwich when your sister approaches with a glass of wine in hand.
âSo, how much are you paying that hunky guy to be here?â She sniggers, keeping her eyes on Bucky. Heâs talking casually with your father and your eyes well up.
âIâm not paying him anything, weâve been together for a few months.â You lie, but wishing it was true.
âOh come on Y/N. Who are you trying to fool? Us or yourself? Thereâs no way a guy like that; good looking, hunky, beefy would date someone like *you.â
That was it. You dropped the plate, allowing the thin china to shatter over the floor and hiked your dress up allowing you to run inside. Bucky heard the commotion and saw you run off, he glared at the laughing woman that was standing next to you. Something within him snapped, and he couldnât stand it any longer watching your family pick at your insecurities.
âWhat the hell did you say?â He yells, stomping over and wiping the smirk off her face. âWhat did you say to my girl?â
Your sister stutters, looking at the other household members for help but receiving nothing in return.
âI told her⌠thereâs no way a guy like you couldâŚâ
âCould. What?!â Bucky is seething, his jaw and fists clenched.
âCould⌠couldâŚâ
âSpit it out!â
âCould date someone like that, I'm so sorry!â
Bucky storms past your sister, calling out your name. Youâre on the bottom stair with tears staining your cheeks.
âDoll, come with me.â He takes your hand and pulls you up, not giving you a chance to argue with him. Youâre too humiliated to face anyone right now but he leads you back out and itâs so quiet. It seemed like the birds had even stopped singing.
âYou know,â Bucky starts, clearing his throat and demanding the attention from every single member of your family. âItâs my first time meeting everyone and since I got here Iâve been biting my tongue. The things Iâve wanted to say, I didnât because I didnât want to upset Y/N. But seeing *you, her own family make comments, snide remarks, laughing behind her back and then worst of all be told she has no right to date someone like me?â He takes a breath, taking in everyoneâs guilty expressions before he continues. âY/N is the most beautiful woman Iâve ever met,I love her and if anyone doesnât deserve to be with someone itâs me who doesnât deserve to be with her.â Bucky turns to face you, youâre frozen in place and shocked. You're happy but you canât believe this is real. âI love you, I have for a really long time doll. Youâre perfect the way you are and donât you ever change how you look to please other people.â Bucky refers to a comment he had overheard earlier between your mother and her friend.
You sigh happily, wrapping your arms around his neck. âDo you mean it? You like me for me?â
âI love every inch of you doll. Thereâs nothing I wouldnât change about you.â He smiles and leans in, âonly your family.â
âI love you too Buck, youâre the only family I want.â You lean in and he closes the gap. A round of applause from your father is quickly stopped by a glare from your mother.
âAnd just for the record,â Bucky says, turning around to face them. âNone of you are invited to our wedding. You can also imagine what your grandchildren will look like. Come on doll, letâs spend the rest of the weekend alone in a happier place.â You giggle, walking behind him and ignoring your mother calling your name. She burned these bridges herself. But it was Buckyâs words that replayed in your head over and over. Nobody had ever stood up for you before and he loved you for who you were?
Of course he did. Because it doesnât matter whatâs on the outside; whether youâre small, big, tall, short. Itâs whatâs on the inside that counts and every single person in the universe needs someone like Bucky to bring the best out of you. Donât let anybody ever tell you something differently. You are loved and deserve to be loved.
