Steve is an artist, working part time in Lush to be able to get by. On his first day, a man with a prosthetic arm comes into the shop, hoping to get something to alleviate the aches in his bones. When Steve took this job he expected free samples and soft hands, not an immediate crush on his first customer and sarcastic comments from his friends. Luckily, Bucky's pain isn't an easy one to get rid of so he has to make repeated trips to Lush to get what he needs.

Basically and advert and/or accidental product placement for Lush. Written for Niamh.

"This was happening. This was really, really happening. Bucky and Steve were going to be fathers. They would be leaving the hospital with their child. Nothing was ever going to be the same. And neither of them could wait. "Standing in the elevator, waiting for the car to finally reach the maternity wing, Steve slipped his hand down to Bucky's, lacing their fingers.

All Good Things: Green Series 5 (Pre-Serum Omega!Steve x Alpha!Bucky AU) by loveforpreserumsteve

"After the baths and after the Dino-nuggets, and after they put the boys to sleep, Steve and Bucky collapsed into their own bed. Content with just being in bed beside each other. And just like he did with their other two kids, Bucky moved between Steve's legs and started telling them about the day he met Steve. Wanting all their children to know their parents origin and how much they loved each other right from the jump. Rolling his eyes, Steve didn't even try to hide his smile. Simply reaching over for his tablet. Deciding to pin a few more things to his currently favorite board. Loving all the decorations he could make for their little one. 'It was the best decision I ever made,' Bucky informed them. Pressing a sweet kiss to Steve's abdomen, just below his belly button, and prompting Steve to lovingly run his hand through Bucky's soft brown locks. 'And it led to you.'" -Modern Stucky AU -Language and other mature content -Late-term miscarriage, stillborn delivery, and postpartum depression -EDITED VERSION WITH NEW CHAPTERS BOOK 5 OF 14: GREEN SERIES ***I don't own Marvel or the characters of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes, nor any of the other Marvel characters

"Wrapping Oliver up in his arm, he held the squirming toddler close to his chest, so he could scratch behind Greg's ear while she purred. Once that was taken care of, Bucky let Oliver break out of the hold. Instantly, Oliver tackled him. The pair being louder than necessary, but Steve couldn't find it in himself to tell them to stop. Loving them and the joy coursing through the bond too much. As if Cookie Monster could tell that his brother was playing with his dad, his own movements in Steve's womb amped up. Doubling in effort. Almost like he was trying to break free and join them. And since he couldn't do that, Steve brought his hand down to rub his bump, hoping that it would appease the baby." -Modern Stucky AU -Smut and other mature content -EDITED VERSION WITH NEW CHAPTERS BOOK 4 OF 14: GREEN SERIES ***I don't own Marvel or the characters of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes, nor any of the other Marvel characters

A Place to Fall: Falling Series 1 (skinny!Steve x Bucky Barnes College AU) by loveforpreserumsteve

"Gesturing towards his roommate, Sam introduced the pair, 'This is Steve. Steve, this is Bucky.' Bucky neighborly extended his hand out to Steve while telling the petite blond, 'Nice to meet you.' Steve eagerly took Bucky's hand and nodded. That was all he could do. Steve's mouth felt entirely too dry in that moment and he wondered if Bucky could feel just how clammy his hand was. Steve's heart was racing in his chest, and he was positive that he was shaking Bucky's hand entirely too long. Once he consciously realized that the handshake was completely too long, Steve instantly dropped Bucky's hand. Bucky gave Steve an amused smirk." -Modern Stucky AU -Smut and other mature content BOOK ONE OF FALLING SERIES ***I don't own Marvel or the characters of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes, nor any of the other Marvel characters

"Steve sat there for a moment. Usually people sat around and talked with him more. Flirted ostentatiously even. This person, however, had simply gotten up and left. Turning around, Bucky continued to walk, backwards this time, and waved goodbye as he called out, 'It was nice meeting you, Steve.' Steve stayed on the bench, dumbstruck, and waved back in reply. Steve had no idea if he would ever see this Bucky person again, but he sure wished that he would." -Modern Stucky AU -Smut and other mature content -My first try at writing a smutty fanfiction BOOK ONE OF BLUE SERIES ***I don't own Marvel or the characters of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes, nor any of the other Marvel characters

The Boss [COMPLETED] by StayGold_483

A Modern Bucky Barnes x OC Story **SMUTS** TW - Lots of BDSM. Sexual content. Sex Work. Death. Violence. You worked for Mr Barnes as his secretary, and had been working for him for the last year. He was obviously the hottest CEO you had worked for. Hell, he was the hottest CEO you'd seen. But you were a professional, and you always kept your distance. You also kept your day job completely separate from your evening activities, being careful not to risk anyone finding out what you liked to do past 8pm. That is, until the two worlds collide. Then, your past also starts to catch up with you. FYI, this is not a typical secretary-CEO story. ---------------------------------------------- "It's a fucking double standard Bucky, and I don't understand why you can't just leave me alone like you leave everyone else alone!" "BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT EVERYONE ELSE!" He yelled suddenly, making your anger disappear instantly. "You are completely different." He added, his voice quieter, but his teeth still gritted. "Why am I different?" You asked, frowning at him in confusion. "You can't seriously be that naive?" He chuckled heartlessly. The anger flared back up. "Listen here Bucky, if all you're going to do is insult me for asking simple fucking questions, then I will walk ou-" Your words were cut off, by Bucky crashing his lips to yours. ---------------------------------------------- #1 in buckybarnessmut #1 in sexualfantasy #1 in jamesbarnes #1 in bucky #1 in samwilson #2 in originalcharacter #2 in originalstory #1 in avengersfanfiction #1 in buckybarnes #1 in buckybarnesxreader #4 in fanfiction #1 in steverogers #4 in alternateuniverse #1 in modernworld

"Then, Natasha perked. Her idea giving her so much renewed energy that Steve could practically feel it rippling through the air to him. Steve looked over at Natasha and watched as she stubbed out her cigarette on the open windowsill. Excitedly, Natasha stated, 'You should come with me.' Only it didn't sound like a suggestion, it sounded more like a plea. 'I don't know,' Steve trailed off, taking another bite of the black licorice. 'Steven,' Natasha whined as she dropped down onto her knees and theatrically slid across the bathroom tiles to him. Clasping her hands together and pouting her plump lower lip, Natasha theatrically begged, 'Please? You're my savior! My best friend! My precious rage-filled dumpling!' Playfully, Steve rolled his eyes, but before he could answer, Natasha continued. Giving Steve the biggest puppy dog eyes that she could conjure, she pleaded, 'Stevie Poo?' 'Okay, fine,' Steve giggled, caving, just like he always did." -Modern Stucky AU -Language and other mature content BOOK ONE OF HOME SERIES ***I don't own Marvel or the characters of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes, nor any of the other Marvel characters ***Original artwork created by @Toby_aka_Gabby NOW A PUBLISHED NOVEL
