Faith and Cookies

Pairing: Bucky Barnes X Reader // SINGLEDAD!Bucky X Nanny!Reader

Prompt: So for this one I am combining a prompt sent in to @the-ss-horniest-book-club by @bugsbucky​ “Bucky is a window and reader is his daughter’s nanny, and to make it a happy time for her the three of them spend the afternoon baking cookies.” and the HFTH Prompt of the day: Cookies. 

A/N: Don’t mind me I am a whore for baking prompts and dad!characters... 🤗 writing the kids is probably the best part tbh. Coincidentally I am going to be making these cookies myself with my own paddle licker. 

It had been a whirlwind of a year. You had graduated college with no clue as to what to do next but you moved to the city with your savings and a dream in your heart. Like most who try to make it in the city with few connections, your savings started to run out and you needed to look for a job, ANY job that would keep you there. Returning home was not a choice for you. Throughout your studies you nannied on the side for a bit of extra income so you applied to an agency. Your glowing reviews and degree put you at the top of their list. Soon you had a job for a single father and his six year old daughter. It came with room and board as he was often gone for days at a time on business trips. You took it without a single hesitation. 

You were close with the little girl, Faith, now. The two of you bonded immediately and she would recount stories about her mom that Bucky would tell her when she asked about her. Faith was only four when her mother passed so her memories of her were limited to those stories -- always filled with love. One that came up recently had been about how her mom loved to bake, cookies, cakes, bread. You name it she made it. The holidays had been her favorite time to do so and just before she had passed he stood in the kitchen watching Faith’s little tongue lick the batter from the mixers paddle while her mother scooped dough balls onto a cookie sheet. 

You stood by the stove making dinner and watching Faith make a bracelet as she told the story, sounding just like her father when he had told them. 

“Do you think we could make cookies this year?” Faith asked curiously. “Last year we didn’t really do anything to celebrate the holidays.”

“I think we can manage that, Faithy. What kind of cookies should we --?” 

“Chocolate chip!” she blurted out before you could finish causing you to laugh.

“You gotta go big for the holidays!” You started to scroll your phone to show her a picture of some cookies you had perfected. “How about we make peppermint and chocolate?” A flip of your phone revealed the fluffy cookies to her. 

“Oh yes. Yes please!” she begged. 

“Let me bring it up to your dad later. Maybe he can join us?” You wondered out loud.

“Dad in the kitchen?” Faith giggled, but then agreed it would make it more fun with him around. 

---------

A few days later you and Bucky stood in his pantry collecting ingredients as Faith read them off. He leaned in to whisper something to you while she was sounding out a word. 

“Thank you for this. I know it’ll make her feel close to her mom, and I have to admit I didn’t do well last christmas with keeping traditions alive.” 

You smiled softly “It is really no problem, I too love to bake and Christmas is a time to be together. Even in spirit.” 

Faith had given up on her struggle on figuring out the word and tugged on your apron for help. You helped her sound it out and grabbed it from the shelf. Bucky appreciated the way you helped his daughter learn everyday while still making it fun for her, he imagined his late wife would have been the same way. 

You each took turns adding the ingredients to the mixer, Faith insistent on breaking the eggs herself and pouring the flour in. You reminded her to do it slowly as her hand carefully brought it to the edge of the bowl, but soon there was a puff of powder flying into your face hovering just over the mixer. 

“OOPS!” Faith yelled out in an angelic voice. You turn to see Bucky holding back a laugh, and you couldn’t help but let your own out. 

“What is baking without a mess?” you managed to get out as you grabbed a handful of flour from the counter and blew it in Bucky’s direction. He sputtered for a moment trying to get the flour out of his mouth as it was wide open in a laugh with his eyes closed. When he realized where it came from a full on flour fight erupted in the kitchen, Faith included. 

Eventually the three of you stopped the throwing of flour long enough to finish the cookies, Faith taking the role of licking the paddle clean as you stood shoulder to shoulder with Bucky teaching him how to make the perfect cookie dough ball before you put them in the oven to bake. 

A group clean up was in order while the cookies puffed up in the oven, then as they cooled on the rack you warmed some milk on the stove top to make hot cocoa so you could all sit down and watch claymation christmas videos while enjoying the products of your work. After the movie, Bucky picked up a sleeping Faith and carried her to bed, tucking her in nice and tight so the chill in the air wouldn’t get to her. As he watched over his daughter he saw his late wife in her face, and thought about how proud she would be of her, and realized how thankful he was for you-- for bringing joy back into both of their lives this year.

Knot Coming Up There

Pairing: Chris Evans X Reader

Prompt: This is for Day 3 of HBC HFTH: Decorating.  @the-ce-horniest-book-club​

How the lights got themselves into a ball every year while in storage you had no idea. But here you were standing at the bottom of a ladder untangling another strand of lights and letting out a frustrating groan. 

“Would you like to switch places?’ Chris hollered down from the roof where he was waiting for you to catch up to him. The way he leaned over the edge to see you made you nervous. 

“You know I don’t like heights!” you yelled back shaking out the knot. You heard a laugh come from above you and you added “It’s not funny!” Chris of course had no fear of heights, and often would lovingly give you shit for it. 

Finally you untangled the strand in your hand and moved to the next but not before glancing up to him, hand to your browline to lessen the brightness of the sun. He reached to place the lights on the peak of the house and, his boxers peaked out as his shirt rose and he sang one of your favorite christmas carols. 

 “It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Soon the bells will start. And the thing that'll make 'em ring is the carol that you sing. Right within your heart” 

Smiling, you hummed along with him and picked at the knot in front of you, stealing glances every once in a while.

Tree Tradition

Pairing: Carter Baizen X Reader

Prompt: This if for day TWO of @the-ss-horniest-book-club’s HFTH challenge: Getting the tree/decorations.

A/N: just a quick drabble. Blink and you’ll miss it.

Carter still hired out a lot of things to be done but there was one thing you insisted you do yourselves every year: cut down your own tree. He gave you a hard time about it the first year, but now he looks forward to it. Of course he couldn’t leave it at just getting a tree. Oh no. It had to be a whole weekend getaway now.

The two of you would drive the four hours out of the city to a beautiful tree farm in New Hampshire, spend the weekend in a gorgeous B & B just down the road relaxing and enjoying time away with your phones locked away. He always made sure you had a few hours to yourself with the giant bathtub, a bottle of champagne, and a box of your favorite macarons.

Finally Sunday would arrive and the two of you would wake early to head towards the farm. There you took a horse drawn carriage through the property and were dropped off at the tree lot. There you walked hand in hand down the rows of trees nitpicking each tree until you found the perfect one.

Carter pulled out the saw provided by the farm and knelt down to start sawing away at the trunk of the tree. As it started to lean you ran to the other side to assist him while he sped up his back and forth movement. Once the tree was free he hoisted it —a chipmunk scurrying out and hopping into a neighboring tree— and carried it back to the carriage to be brought to the front of the farm to be wrapped and strapped to the top of the car for the trip home.

[ikaris-whore]

Honestly I had this whole one shot planned for this and I realized I didn’t have the heart to write it even though I had quite a few paragraphs written so we changed it up last minute. Enjoy this blurb for today’s @the-ss-horniest-book-club HFTH: Christmas movies.

Bucky made the mistake of admitting he hadn’t really watched any Christmas movies. You insisted he watch one a day with you every day of December and he reluctantly agreed.

He wasn’t sure what he got himself into when he showed up for the first day seeing your choice of outfit and the fact that your place was already decked out for the holidays. He got a dig in on you —asking when you had the elves over to help with all of it— but you didn’t mind it was part of your friendship. You had gone above and beyond making a whole festive charcuterie board for the two of you and were in the middle of making hot cocoa. You poured the hot liquid into a mug labeled “filled with Christmas cheer” Bucky read it snd gave his best impression of grumpy cat. “We will get you in the spirit soon, grumps.” You told him in a sing-songy voice followed by a huff of air from him in disbelief.

“Movies will be seen in order of release. First is ‘It’s a Wonderful Life.’ released in 1946.” Bucky nodded and followed you to the couch, your dog penny jumped up beside him. She’d always taken a liking to him even though he was a self proclaimed cat person. He gave her a pat and made himself comfortable as you insert the disc and made your way over to them. Penny not budging from her spot between the two of you, everyone got comfortable to enjoy the movie.

Bucky seemed to be slightly uncomfortable as george stood on the bridge, but as the movie progressed he started to put together the moral of the movie. At one point you looked up and saw Bucky wiping a tear from his cheek. You didn’t dare say anything though.

Bonky the Elf

@the-ss-horniest-book-club’s Home for the Holidays Day 12 - Elf on the Shelf

Sam was shuffling through pictures on his phone for the tenth day in a row, all of the ladies of the team surrounding him when Bucky walked into the room causing him to roll his eyes because he knew what was happening by now. He didn’t have to ask.

“Oh yeah last night Bonky the elf was caught out by Spider-Man. It was a big hit.” He gave his signature Sam chuckle as he eyed Bucky. The ladies cooed and pointed out that Bonky Sure got himself in a sticky situation last night.

Bucky huffed and plopped himself down counting down the minutes until the morning brief started.

—

It originally took Bucky a few days to catch the elf’s name. He had asked Sam why that was his name. He had explained that the kids named him after their favorite uncle and it warmed his heart a little to know that they wanted to name it after him but they can’t pronounce his name correctly so it got named Bonky. But as the days went on Sam continued to put Bonky in increasingly compromising and all too realistic situations. He even went through the trouble of making him a black mask that covered only around his eyes.

Buon Natale

@the-ss-horniest-book-club’s Home for the Holidays Day 15 - Holiday Music

Charles waltzed into the room grabbing your hand and pulling you up from the couch, close to his chest. His voice was quiet almost a whisper at first but grew louder as he continued his song, swaying you back and forth. You became putty in his hands whenever he spoke another language. You didn’t know what he was saying but you could tell the sentiment from his soft eyes and smile.

“Mille cherubini in coro (A thousand cherubs in chorus)

Ti sorridono dal ciel (Smile at you from heaven)

Una dolce canzone (A sweet song)

T’accarezza il crin (Caresses your head)

Una man ti guida lieve (A gentle hand guides you)

Fra le nuvole d’or (Through golden clouds)

Sognando e vegliando (Dreaming and watching)

Su te, mio tesor (Over you, my treasure)

Proteggendo il tuo cammin (Protecting you on your way)”

When he had finished you pressed your lips to his, then requested another song. He obliged and promised one day you would both spend Christmas in Italy.

Kitchen Bliss

HBC Home for the Holidays Day 13- favorite holiday recipe. @the-ss-horniest-book-club @the-ce-horniest-book-club tagging both because I made it neutral.

My personal one is cranberry bliss bars. It’s requested by literally everyone at this point. I’ve made three batches already this season and will be making two more this week.

You spent a lot of your holiday baking all of your friends goodies that they would request to have. The one you enjoyed making most was your cranberry bliss bars. You had won Over his heart a few years ago with them and now you had to make them at least twice during the season. He would come into the kitchen as soon as you’d start using the slap chopper to make your dried cranberries smaller and don his apron, ready to help you make the treat. At this point he knew the recipe by heart too, which allowed you two to have a bit more fun in the kitchen.

Just a little mood board for today’s HFTH prompt: Ice Skating. No writing today because I’m just not feeling up to it and I have a few other things to work on but I will bring back this Clumsy!Seb moment from last winter. Enjoy ☺️

hi, love <3 i was just wondering if you’ve ever written for taron egerton/would ever consider writing for him in the future? he’s one sweet man and there should be more fics with him in the world 🥺

I did an Eggsy unwin headcannon and I have a WIP for T that I was really excited about that fell apart a few months ago. I’m hoping that my HFTH challenge from the HBC helps me get my writing groove back and we can have some Taron/his characters stuff.

But I agree he’s a terribly sweet man and I’d love to put some fluff out there for you all.
