AUGUST || Bucky Barnes x OC

12

"You're acting weird." Valerie's voice broke the silence, coming  from behind the corner of the house.

"Holy fuck!" Bucky jumped, throwing whatever was in his hand and waving the cloud of smoke away frantically. "Why would you sneak up on me like that?! in the dark?? What the hell is wrong with you?" Bucky whispered aggressively, reaching back to the ground for the blunt he had catapulted away from himself at top speed.

When he looked back over at Valerie she was giggling hysterically into her hands. Bucky couldn't help but to laugh with her, trying to remain quiet as she snorted through choked sounds of chuckles.

"ssshhh" He put his hand on top of hers. It made her stagger back and hit her head against the side of the house, which only ended up making them both laugh even more.

Once their fit of laughter subsided, Bucky offered her a drag of the weed. Valerie leaned closer, closing her lips around it. He could feel the innocent act almost making him slightly hard. The way her lips brushed against his fingers made him think about their kiss a few nights ago.

Valerie blew the smoke in his face, making him wave it away, giving her an annoyed look.

"I could smell it from my room, you know," She whispered.

"You would, you pothead. Why are you even up?" He teased.

"I don't know. Why are you up?" She teased back.

"Dunno" He shrugged, taking another drag.

"You've been acting weird. Why?" She pressed. He was hoping that if he pretended not to have heard it the first time, she wouldn't ask again. Bucky smiled to himself at his stupidly hopeful assumption; this was Valerie. There was no stone left unturned with her. Making people uncomfortable was her middle name.

"I'm not acting weird" he responded confidently, looking over her face. One of the lamps at the side of the house provided just enough brightness to make out her features. She looked so pretty in the soft light against the dark of 3 AM. Her hair falling down in loose waves across her chest and her arms crossed as she leaned up against the wall. Staring him down the way she did when she was prying someone for answers.

"You've been avoiding me," she continued.

He definitely had.

"No I haven't?" He raised a curious eyebrow, blowing out the smoke into her face. He hoped it sounded convincing enough.

"Is it because of the kiss?" She reached her hand out for another drag.

Yes, definitely because of the kiss.

"No" He chuckled. Why did the sight of her lips around the blunt make him feel so jittery?

"Whatever you say, Barnes" She blew the smoke away from him this time, but her calculating gaze returned to search his face.
"It was a mistake," He whispered. "I hope I didn't give you the wrong idea" He cleared his throat, sounding way more nervous than he had intended.

"What idea would that be?" She narrowed her eyes at him, visibly amused.

"I don't know..I just..I care about you. Just in a different way. And I don't want you to think that what happened should change anything" He ran a hand through his hair.

"You got that much from a 3 second kiss?" She laughed.

"It wasn't 3 seconds. And I'm just saying" He mumbled, irritated.

"You're right. It was more like 4 seconds" She turned away from him, letting her back lean up against the side of the house. She could feel his gaze drilling into her. After all, annoying him back happened to also be one of her favorite activities.

"You know wha—never mind." Bucky sighed, crossing his arms and mimicking her stance against the wall. 

Valerie turned to look at him, her entire face beaming with that proud expression she wore every time she had managed to hit a nerve of his. Bucky just gave her the side eye.

"I'm just saying, if you're gonna talk about giving me an idea or making an impression you should at least—" Valerie's cocky and obnoxious tangent was cut short.
Before she could even react, she felt Bucky's hand push her back against the wall. His body followed next, pinning her in place before his mouth landed on hers. Valerie almost let a whimper slip out of her as she tasted him.
It was quick, unexpected, and made her entire body shiver.

She could feel his warm, large hands wandering across her waist and up her back.

Bucky had reacted completely without self control, once again. He had just given in to the moment, her smile, and those soft fucking lips. He dipped his tongue into her mouth, slowly sliding it across hers. His movements were calm and controlled, taking in every part of her body his hands could find. He was trying his hardest to keep his hands from going too far, but god did he want to reach down and squeeze his fingers around her plump ass.

Valerie pulled him in even closer, pressing her entire body against his, reaching over his wide shoulders and wrapping her arms tightly around him. Her fingers slowly wandered into his hair as he kept kissing her. Her chest rising and falling slowly against his.

Bucky slowly moved his hand to the small of her back, feeling the curve teasing him, almost daring him to slide his hand down just a bit further. He could feel the soft skin of her cheek against the palm of his hand as he continued to dip his tongue into her mouth, coaxing a light moan from her between kisses.

He couldn't stop imagining all the things he wanted to do to her. What he would be able to do to her, right now, if he just kept going. But he had to remember who he was dealing with, and where he was. Just as those thoughts began whirling in his mind, he stopped.
Valerie looked like she was aching for him to keep going. Her eyebrows knitted together and her lips looked kiss-stained, even in the dark of night. Bucky's hand moved to her jaw, placing a gentle grip beneath it as he lovingly squished both her cheeks together, making her lips pout.

"That should shut you up" he whispered, smiling down at her.
