Puppeteer (Bucky X Reader)

Part 12

You and Steve picked out an animal shelter and left to it. The car ride there was quiet except for the music playing on the radio. You loved classic rock and rock in general but didn't mind other genres. Hell, you even feel in love with some modern songs. Although there was silence it wasn't awkward. You and Steve where comfortable with each other so talking wasn't always necessary. "Shouldn't you have asked Tony about getting another dog?" Steve finally asked, halfway to the shelter. "He probably won't mind. If he does too bad I have notes that say he has to take care of me." You say with a smirk looking over at Steve. He glances at you and shakes his head smiling.

The two of you walked throughout the cages of dogs. It pained you to see them there, without owners. Some where abandoned, dropped off, abused, others there after not getting adopted from a breeder. You wanted to take them all back to the compound but knew you couldn't. Most of them where scared of you or Steve. Others where either too aggressive or just didn't care. After walking around for a bit you saw a female Fox Chihuahua. Your heart immediately melted seeing her. As you crouched down she came up to the door wagging her tail and shaking with excitement. Her ears went down as she sniffed your hand and playfully growled jumping around. You smiled and giggled watching her jump around playfully. A man came up behind you smiling. "This the one?" He asked crossing his arms. "Yeah, she sure is." You said as you stood up getting out of the way of the man. "You're lucky. We just groomed her and made sure her shoots where up to date." He said picking her up and walking to the front. You and Steve followed him. Steve placed a hand on your shoulder to keep you down on the ground. You hadn't noticed you where bouncing around.

The man counted the money and smiled at you. "Perfect, thank you very much enjoy your new companion." He said with a smile giving you the dog's leash. You smiled and nodded leaving with Steve. The dog was jumping around sniffing everything she could letting out happy barks as she tugged on the leash to sniff more. "Come on girl." You said softly as you ushered her to the car. As soon as you opened the door she jumped in and sat on the passenger's seat happily. Shaking your head smiling you picked her up and sat down, placing her on your lap. Steve got into the driver's seat and looked at you and the dog. "What are you gonna name her?" He asked watching as the dog licked your face. "Lola." You said as you giggled from the kisses you where getting. "Hello Lola." Steve said and petted her. She licked his wrist then cuddled up into your lap. Steve smiled and turned on the car. He drove to the compound as Lola snored and music played.

You attempted to sneak Lola in but of course FRIDAY picked her up informing Tony right away. You got to the living room before Tony came up behind you. "Hey Y/n." He greeted, obviously having something on his mind. "Hello." You said turning to face him. "Suddenly pregnant? Who's the dad? It's Barnes isn't it? Should have known you two where a thing." Tony says referring to the bump in your jacket from Lola. "What?- No, no, no, I'm not pregnant." You said as you felt Lola stretch out to meet the new voice. "Then what's that?" Tony asked as Lola popped her head out. "This is Lola." You said smiling happily. "Don't try taking her away it won't happen." You warned and turned around to be met with Bucky. "Lola huh?" He asked petting the panting chihuahua you where holding in your jacket. "Mhm." You hummed smiling. Seeing Bucky pet Lola melted your heart, the sight was adorable. Such a strong dangerous man petting a small dog with love in his eyes was an amazing yet funny sight. You giggled and he looked at your face? "What?" He asked suddenly and you just smiled. "Noting." You said in a sing song voice and walked to your room. You where stopped by basically everyone in the hall to meet Lola. Now all that was left was for Moose and Lola to meet.

You opened your door and put Lola down, shutting the door behind you. She trotted in sniffing everything, eventually landing on a sleeping Moose. Moose perked up and sniffed Lola. She sniffed him back then trotted away over to the arm chair. She jumped onto it and curled up. Moose got up and went to sniff her more. You smiled and left the room. If either dog wanted out there was a doggy door to the right of the normal one. This would be entertaining.
