Stucky One-shots

The Online Crush

Bucky Barnes sits down at his computer, eager to log on. He brushes his hair back away from his eyes as the computer boots up.

Finally, it loads and he clicks onto his favorite game, Shame. It's a game where you steal a bunch of stuff until you get caught by the cops. You can play solo or with a friend.

Bucky looks to see if his friend, Captain America, is on. He is!

Bucky sends the other player a quick message.

What's up, Solider? he responds. Bucky and Captain America have never met in real life but sometimes it feels like they have. I mean, Bucky even managed to develop a crush on this person.

Winter Soldier: Nothing much. U?

Captain America: Nothin. My moms trying to set me up with a bunch of girls. I don't have the heart to tell her I don't swing that way. Bucky's heart skips a beat at those words. He tries to keep it cool, though.

Winter Soldier: That's not cool.

Captain America: Yeah.

Bucky's fingers stumble over the next words as he types: We should meet up sometime.

Captain America is silent for a long time. I don't know if that's a good idea, he finally types.

Winter Soldier: I know we live in the same city, you told me you lived in Brooklyn.

Captain: It's just, I don't think you'll like who I really am.

Winter Soldier: I like you no matter what.

A bubble pops up, as if the other gamer is typing a lot.

"He better not be writing me a novel," Bucky grumbles.

Captain America: Meet me at the coffee shop on 53 street. I'll meet you at noon. My real name is Steve.

Winter Soldier: And mines Bucky. Steve signs off shortly after. Bucky does solo missions for a while before deciding to go to bed. He doesn't sleep much that night, though. Thoughts of meeting Steve plagues his mind. He imagines falling in love with Steve-the real Steve. Not the online one that Bucky knows.

His eyes drop closed and Bucky falls into a dreamless sleep.

"Hi! Could I order an espresso please?" Bucky asks. He yawns as he hands the cashier how much he owes her.

"And what's your name, sir?" The cashier asks.

"Bucky," Bucky says. He goes to sit at a nearby table to wait until his coffee is ready.

Steve sits at a table near the window. He watches as a tall brunette sits nearby. He's kind of cute in Steve's opinion.

The skinny blonde checks his watch. It's only 11:54. Bucky probably won't be here for at least a couple of minutes.

He takes a sip of his latte and sighs. Why did he agree to this. He could have kept his identity a secret. It's what he meant to do before he met Winter Soldier.

"Bucky?" A barista calls out. Steve glances up, looking to see who stands up. He looks around for someone to stand up. "Bucky?" The barista calls again.

The brunettes head jerks up from his phone. He stands and walks to the counter to accept the coffee.

Steve watches as Bucky makes his way back to where he was sitting.

"Are you the Winter Solider?" Steve asks the man.

"Yes, I am Cap," Bucky replies smiling. "May I?" He gestures to the empty seat across from Steve.

"Go ahead," Steve mumbles. Bucky sits down and an easy smile crosses his face.

"I'm Bucky," he says. "My name is James Buchanan 'Bucky' Barnes."

"And I'm Steve," Steve says. "Steven Rogers." They shake hands.

"Want to go to the park?" Bucky asks.

"Sure," Steve responds. The two make their way to the park.

When they get there, it's practically deserted. Bucky grabs Steve's hand gently. Steve gives he other mans hand a gentle squeeze.

They stroll through the park. They stop under a willow tree. It moves in the breeze.

"It's like the whomping willow," Steve whispers.

"I knew there was a reason I liked you," Bucky says.

"Like? As in like like? Or just like?" Steve asks nervously.

"Whatever you want it to be," Bucky responds. His voice is slightly husky.

"I think I would like it if you like liked me," Steve whispers. He leans close to Bucky.

"Would you?" Bucky tilts his head to the left. His mouth is twisted into a mischievous grin that transforms his whole face.

"Yeah I would." Steve leans in and he kisses Bucky. Bucky kisses him right back and the two sit there under the willow tree lost in each other.
