After going back inside you were almost too tired to do anything, and you wanted to get rid of the anxiety that was deep in your heart. It really felt like Bucky was hiding something from you, and you didn't like it. One thing you felt had always been clear with the two of you was that you did not have any secrets. Bucky turned on the PlayStation while you grabbed your book and curled up on the couch. He sat down directly beside you and gave you a kiss on the cheek before he started playing the newest Assassin's creed video game. You turned on the couch and put your feet over his lap, while laying across the rest of the couch so you could read comfortably. Bucky pulled your legs in closer to his body, and remained relaxed as he started to play.
You read your book for a few hours, and ended up falling asleep on the couch with your book falling on your chest while Bucky continued to play his game. He chuckled softly and put everything away before picking you up and carrying you to the bedroom. He pulled your pants off, and put you into the bed with the comforter on top of you before getting undressed and getting in beside you. You automatically cuddled into him as soon as he was beside you and he couldn't help but smile in contentment. He closed his eyes and sighed happily before drifting off to sleep.

When Bucky woke up in the morning, he was the first to wake up. He gave you a kiss on the forehead and got out of bed, before quickly putting pillows in his recently vacated spot. He went and took a shower, before putting on a pair of dark blue jeans and white t-shirt, before heading into the kitchen. He went around the kitchen and started with prepping the locally grown strawberries, cutting them all up into a large rose printed bowl, then sprinkling them with sugar. He put them back into the fridge and took out the pound of the "Markets best smoked Applewood" bacon and cooked it up in the frying pan. He put all the bacon into a Pyrex dish with a paper towel underneath to get the grease and put them into the oven to stay warm. He proceeded to make buttermilk pancakes, and hazelnut coffee all while you slept. He placed the pancakes in the oven to stay warm and went to check on you. You were still snuggled up to the pillows with one foot sticking out of the blankets and he couldn't help but chuckle. He quietly tiptoed into the closet and grabbed your suitcase to go to the hidden compartment in the back where Loki had hidden your cream cable knit sweater dress that the girls had bought for you back in the summer. It had a drop shoulder, and it was a three quarter length at the skirt. He pulled it out and paired it with a pair of black tights that Loki had also snuck in. He brought it back into the bedroom and placed it on the bed so it would be the first thing you saw when you started to get out of bed. He went to the other side of the bed, behind you and wrapped his arm around your waist as he lay right behind you. You gave a soft moan in the back of your throat as you started to wake up, and he kissed you on the back of your neck.
"Bucky?" you whispered, your voice a little raspy.
"I'm right here doll" he kissed you on the back of your shoulder this time. He nuzzled into your hair and took a deep inhale as though he was treasuring the moment.
"What smells so good?" you asked, still groggy from sleep.
"Time to get up to find out" he gave you another kiss on the back of your neck.
You finally opened your eyes and the first thing you saw was the cream dress up by your face, and you looked at it confused.
"How did that get here?" you asked, wondering if you were still dreaming.
"Loki helped," he chuckled. "We are going for a walk today," he added softly.
"In a dress?" you asked, still confused.
"Do you trust me?" he asked softly.
"With my life" you nodded after a moment.
"Just this once, don't ask questions" he rubbed his hand up and down your side before he slipped out of bed.
"Do I have time for a shower?" you asked, still full of questions. "Last question" you added quickly.
"Yes, I need to set the table" he chuckled again and headed out of the bedroom. You took a moment to get your bearings and fully wake up before sitting up. You looked around the room and saw there was a pair of tights to go with your dress and you sighed softly. You rolled out of bed backwards and went to the closet to get your pink lace bra and panties to wear under the dress, pouting slightly that you couldn't wear your leggings and graphic t-shirt again today. You hurried out with all your clothes in your arms and saw Bucky was busy setting the table with dishes from the cupboard. You hurried into the bathroom and closed the door before going about doing your business and then taking a quick shower. When you came out, you were feeling inspired and found yourself thankful that you had left makeup at the cabin. You put on some light makeup with a sultry smokey eye, and a bold red lip. You let your hair down naturally to dry on its own before getting dressed. You came back out and saw the table was set with pancakes, strawberries, maple syrup, whipped cream, bacon, eggs, coffee, and orange juice. He looked up at you and got a goofy smile on his face.
"You look fantastic" he licked his lips, slowly looking you up and down.
"This is me not asking questions" you made your way towards him with a slow sultry walk. You stopped in front of him and placed your hands on his chest. He dipped his head down and kissed you softly on the lips and he hummed happily.
"Good morning," he grinned.
"Good morning my love" you whispered, looking up at him with a coy smile.
"I made you breakfast, I hope you're hungry" he leaned down and kissed you softly again. You pulled back from the kiss and smiled happily.
"For you" you giggled.
"Maybe hold that thought" he chuckled as he kissed the tip of your nose lovingly. He took a step back and walked over to your chair and he pulled out the chair for you. You went over and sat down and he pushed you back in after putting a napkin over your lap for you. You couldn't help but suppress a giggle as he hurried to his own seat and he sat down and gave you a wink. He had already filled your plate with food before you had sat down, so you grabbed the strawberry dish in the middle of the table and used the ladle to spoon out a generous serving on top of your pancakes. You cut off a piece of your pancakes and took a bite and moaned happily since the syrup from the strawberries were perfectly accenting the thick treat. Bucky looked proud of himself, and gave himself a serving of strawberries as well before he started eating himself. The two of you ate in silence, but threw soft smiles at each other once in a while. By the time you were done, you were completely stuffed and couldn't possibly eat another bite. You went to clean up the table, but Bucky beat you to it, putting what few leftovers there were into the fridge for later, and the rest of the dishes into the dishwasher. He disappeared into the bedroom for a moment and came back with a jacket each. You stood up and he helped you put yours on. You looked at him with an arched eyebrow, but he simply smiled at you and shrugged on his own jacket.
"Do I need my purse?" you asked expectantly.
"Yes, you should grab it," he nodded. You grabbed your purse off the loveseat and Bucky grabbed his keys. He took your hand and led you out of the house. He locked up the house and gave a thumbs up sign to the camera that was watching, before he led you to the black SUV. He opened the passenger door and waited for you to get in before he closed the door behind you. You put on your seatbelt and placed your purse on the floor between your feet. You felt slightly awkward because all you had with you was your red high-tops. You didn't expect to be going out, and especially not to be getting dressed up. Bucky got in the driver's seat and put on his seatbelt before he started the car. He pulled out of the long driveway and took a left instead of a right that headed back to the compound. He reached out his hand and you intertwined your fingers with his and he drove with ease. He let go of your hand long enough to turn on the Bluetooth that hooked up to his phone, and old love songs from the forties started immediately playing through the speakers. You watched the scenery of fall leaves and nearly bare trees as Bucky drove slightly over the speed limit to a destination you had no idea.
"Do you know where we are going?" Bucky asked you softly after thirty minutes and you looked at him with a small smile on your face.

"No, but I'd love to know" you batted your eyelashes at him.
"Well, I know you are nervous in new places. But this is small enough that you should like it. I looked it up online" he gave a soft smile. "We are almost there" he added softly as you could see the steeple for a church coming into view. You watched almost transfixed as a small but quaint village came into view and Bucky started watching where he was going a lot more closely. You saw a lot of the houses were small, but not too far away from one another. You could see small businesses on either side of the road as you got to the village center. Bucky pulled up to a small forested park, and he parked the car. He got out quickly, and came around to get your door. You grabbed your purse and he helped you undo your seatbelt before you got out of the car.
"Am I allowed to ask questions yet?" you asked and Bucky chuckled.
"No doll, just enjoy the date" he rolled his eyes playfully and he started leading you up a trail. The leaves from the trees crunched under your feet, and you took out your phone to take various pictures as you made your way along the path. Bucky seemed to be excited for what was at the end of the pathway, and you couldn't help but feel excited as well. You were slowing his progress down as you stopped to snap several pictures. Every once in a while he would come up behind you and wrap his arms around your middle and kiss your cheek. The third time he did it you took a selfie of the two of you and he was giving his panty dropping smile.
As you got to the end of the trail, you saw a large opening and to your surprise you saw a few benches surrounding an old cobblestone well in the center of a small field. You took a few more pictures and Bucky pressed for you to go forward. You got to the well, and out of his pocket he pulled out two pennies.
"Make a wish doll" he smirked.
"But I have everything I could possibly need" you shook your head giving a giggle.
"Humor me" he chuckled.
You closed your eyes and made your deepest wish. That you and Bucky would someday get married and you would start a family of your own. You dropped the penny in and you heard the water splash as it made contact. Bucky then took his own penny and kissed it before dropping it in the well.
