#sambuckies keep winning

[plantswithme]

never forget that it’s canon that bucky has thought about moving in with sam and that he knows sam’s not good at sharing anything

IK in Marvel you're nuts for shipping a gay couple unless it's confirmed without a shadow of a doubt onscreen (which is a horrible precedent I think was set when they said Stucky were just friends because let's be real if all that can add up to welp just friends then how can any ship with less than that possibly be legit, right) bUT all that being said the Lokius energy? great. I'm not going to pat Marvel on the back and say this is enough, but I am going to say that for them setting the same-sex heavily-implied love interest next to the opposite-sex are-we-going-to-pretend-this-never-happened love interest and making it unclear if Loki was speaking to one (or both) of them was a pretty big stride forward. They might be coming out of the era of the big neon no-homo, because the Marvel that's been so homophobic in recent years would never have left that door open for considering, would have made sure Mobius was far offscreen when that happened, would have made Sylvie the only important relationship Loki had in the season, would not have put in all the little moments (I direct you to the Don episode: the hair-fixing by Loki, the way Mobius kinda flirts with him the whole time, the way Loki is drawn to Mobius' timeline more than anyone else's, the way the camera focuses on Mobius so close to when Loki is having his "WHO" epiphany, etc.; not to mention the ways they reach out to each other throughout the season, just a little intimate touch here and there, a hand on an arm, an arm around a waist; the fact that when Loki timeslipped back he looked to where Mobius was first, the way he went to Mobius for advice when he was completely out of options, the way he and Mobius trust each other to use torture boxes and help decide the fate of the multiverse, the way they, together, were a focal point of the season, that they were a unit of two, that they were so loath to be separated). In media as a whole, is this big? Not really. For Marvel specifically, in its own little pocket context? Big step. Immense. I really want to believe maybe they're opening the door for us and we just jam our foot in the gap hard enough they'll get the message that we're a fanbase to be reckoned with and that maybe they do want to spend the effort on us after all. I love Marvel. It was an important part of my childhood and I keep watching it now even though it's kind of a mixed bag. I want to be a part of it. I want the Lokius fanbase and the Sambucky fanbase to win where the Stucky fanbase was shut down. Those little moments were intentional and beautiful and I'm incredibly happy they exist. I want them to lead to something more.

Hi! If you're still doing the romance ask: 👠 slow dance

hey cee, thanks for the ask! <33

from this list: SamBucky Romance Asks

Sam let himself sink into the cushions of their sofa, breathing out and relaxing for the first time in a week, maybe more. Probably more.

He knew that Bucky was moving around the house, could hear his footsteps as he went from one room to another. They didn’t sound angry, but Sam knew better.

And he wasn’t stubborn enough to deny that he deserved it.

He had, after all, almost missed his own wedding.

Bucky had every right to be mad. Actually, Sam was surprised he hadn’t straight up cancelled the wedding, or walked away right before saying I do.

It was a few minutes before Bucky came to the living room, missing his tie and jacket, a few buttons of his pressed shirt undone, but otherwise still dressed up and looking unfairly and unbelievably good.

And he was Sam’s husband.

He bypassed Sam entirely, though, and went straight to the record player, going through their impressive collection for a few seconds until he found the one he was looking for.

Sam watched him with bated breath, so many contrasting emotions churning in his stomach, and it seemed like guilt was winning out, making him say, “You can be mad, y’know,” before he could stop himself.

It was just that Bucky hadn’t said anything about it, even when Sam had showed up an hour late with jeans and a sweater and one eye swollen shut.

No, all Bucky had done was breathe out and pull Sam into his arms, gentle like he just knew Sam was sporting a few bruised ribs he was planning on hiding, then had helped him put on his suit, running very careful fingers over the bruises.

Just then, the first notes of I’m In The Mood For Love started playing, Ella Fitzgerald’s voice filling the air.

Bucky turned to look at him. “Yeah,” he said, his voice lighter than it had any right to be, walking over and holding out a hand, “but, I’m in the mood for love.”

Sam swallowed thickly, grabbing Bucky’s hand and letting himself be pulled off the couch and into his arms.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered as he rested his head on Bucky’s shoulder. “I’m so sorry, Bucky.”

Bucky just hummed, one arm resting around Sam’s waist and the other intertwining their fingers together, and started to move their bodies gently to the music, mindful of Sam’s injuries.

“How are you not mad?” Sam asked, pulling back a little.

Because Bucky had been furious when Sam had to leave just a week before the wedding, and they had this big fight about priorities and duties and everything in between, and Sam had left before they had really fully settled the matter, promising Bucky he would be back long before the wedding; a promise he hadn’t been able to keep.

“I’m not spending our first night as a married couple fighting,” Bucky said.

Sam cracked a smile, then winced when it pulled at the tender skin of his face. “Oh, so you’re saving it for the morning?”

“No,” Bucky said easily. “You have a swollen eye in our wedding photos, feels like that’s enough of a punishment for ya.”

Sam snorted.

“No, really,” Bucky said, changing the rhythm of their dancing as the song ended and another started. “Imagine the stories imma tell our kids. Your dad walked into a cabinet just a few days before our wedding.”

“I was saving the world.”

“Your dad punched himself in the eye while lifting a bag.”

Sam shook his head, but he couldn’t stop the smile from spreading across his face. “Yeah, okay. Guess I deserve that.”

Then, because it felt more important, “I love you.”

“I know,” was Bucky’s soft reply.

So Sam stepped in even closer, until their faces were pressed together and they could only really sway on the spot with how close they were.

As long as Bucky knew.

Can't Stand Him

This is for the @sambuckyhalloweenbingo's prompt "Free Space", which I've chosen to use for "Costume Contest". Enjoy this fun enemies to friends to lovers rival fic! 🥰

Can't Stand Him

| Pairing: SamBucky | Rated: T | WC: 10.1K |

Summary: Sam and Bucky have been competing in the same Halloween costume contest for thirty years. What will happen when they have to team up to win the competition?

Excerpt:

“Sam. You and Bucky have been the only people winning this contest for years,” said Leila with a sigh, “You two nerds keep upping the ante and winning. We need to give other people a chance to win.” “You don’t think that I can win if I have to partner up with someone?” asked Sam, a little offended. “Yeah. I have a bunch of friends. I could make this work,” said Bucky defensively. Leila looked at Sam. Then Bucky. Then laughed. Cackled. Bent over in a fit of giggles. “Oh. Oh wow. You really think either of you could win this if you have to micromanage a partner in this competition?” she said and it was clear that she didn’t believe either of them could as she walked away from Sam and Bucky, “Good luck with that.”

Hi! Sambucky + #6, pretty please?

thanks for the ask <3 #6: things you said under the stars and in the grass (from this list)

There's a firefly within reaching distance, so it shouldn't be any surprise to Bucky that Sam automatically reaches up towards it.

He doesn't catch it like Bucky expects him to, like Bucky'd seen him do with Cass and AJ on warm summer nights down in Delacroix, but just lets his hands hover a few inches away until it blinks off outward into the night. Sam's arms fall back down to his stomach.

"You know how a lot of people get seasick when they're lying out on a boat?" Sam asks, a tinge of melancholy in his voice that doesn't match the lazy haze of the night. He doesn't look over to see if Bucky nods, but he does anyway. "Sometimes I think I've got the opposite of that. Watching the stars from solid ground feels wrong in a way I can't really explain."

They'd been in upstate New York for entirely too long, training some of the new kids at the compound to teach them how to work as a team, along with Sam training Joaquín on some of the more advanced techniques with the wings. Bucky's even starting to feel a little homesick for Delacroix, for the allure of Sarah's living room couch, so he can't imagine how much Sam must miss it.

"I heard Cass won his little league game last night," Bucky says, knowing both that talking about his nephews tends to take Sam's mind off of things and that the reminder that Bucky texts Sarah on occasion now might be enough to playful irritate the melancholy away for a while.

Sam huffs a laugh out of his nose and turns his head to look at Bucky, his eyebrow raised. "Man, what did I tell you about talking to my sister?"

Bucky makes an exaggerated show of putting his hands behind his head and getting comfortable, keeping his gaze fixed on the sky above him. "No flirting involved, I swear," he says in a cheeky voice that implies the exact opposite. He's fully aware Sam knows any amount of flirting with Sarah is playful by now, a fun way for both of them to tease Sam considering how obvious it is to everyone around that Bucky's got it bad for Sam himself.

They haven't really crossed any lines on that front yet, even though Bucky's almost positive it's mutual, but they both know they're driving towards it at a pretty steady pace.

Sam reaches over and pushes him gently, and Bucky makes an even bigger show of lurching to the side. "Ignoring the fact that you were absolutely flirting with my sister, yeah, Cass did win his little league game last night. They're going to some kind of tournament in NOLA next week, and he spent like an hour on FaceTime with me last night telling me about all of the stuff he's planning to pack and all of the places he wants to go visit while they're already in town."

Sam smiles to himself with that soft, sweet smile that always makes Bucky's heart flutter in his chest before his grin drops just enough to notice if you're looking.

Bucky's always looking.

"He asked me if I could go watch him and I told him I'd try, but it feels like just about every day there's something new to teach the kids or some new urgent mission to fly out to. Sarah said she'd tape the whole thing for me, but it's still not the same, you know?"

Perhaps bringing up the baseball game wasn't Bucky's best move, he thinks.

Sam sighs and rolls back over on his back for just a moment before pushing himself upright and standing up, lightly brushing off his shorts. "We should probably head inside. Gettin' kinda late, and we have kids to teach tomorrow."

There's a grumpy retort about having to teach these new overpowered children on the tip of Bucky's tongue, but he holds it back and just shakes his head. "You go ahead. I'll catch up soon."

Sam's eyebrows knit together, but he doesn't press. "Night, Buck. Sleep tight."

"Night, Sammy," he replies softly, when Sam's a little too far away to hear.

He fishes his phone out of his pocket and notes the late hour, but he figures Sharon's probably still up, so he dials her number anyways.

"You know business hours don't extend till eleven PM, right, Bucky?" she asks in lieu of a hello.

He thinks about teasing her about her time running a nightclub in the midst of a stolen art selling operation that definitely stayed open past normal business hours, but he decides against it. "Hey, Sharon? Any way that Sam could get this weekend off? Cass has a baseball game."

She hums. "You willing to tag in if the world catches fire?"

Bucky looks off in the direction that Sam had walked off in. "For Sam? Always."

[jemgirl86]

For the AO3 wrapped ask game, could I get 29 please? 😊

Hi!

29. Favorite line/passage you wrote this year?

The crazy part was, the less Bucky relied on the knowledge he had gained from Sam’s journal, the more he felt bad about ever having relied on it at all.

See, after the first three or so dates, Bucky didn’t really need it anymore. Months of hanging out with Sam and a few dates worth of the kind of conversation people typically had on dates, and he knew more than enough. So, Bucky deleted the photos he’d taken all those weeks ago, and tried to push the fact that he’d ever done it in the first place completely out of his mind.

But he never really forgot. Every time Sam reached into his bedside table, every time he said something and Bucky had a niggling feeling that he’d heard it before, whenever Steve jokingly asked how Bucky had talked his way out of the doghouse - he remembered, and he regretted.

Sometimes when they were discussing their future, he wondered if marriage really was going to be in the cards - wondered if he’d really be able to stand up in front of God and his ma and especially Sam, and promise to honor him when he’d already disrespected him so outrageously.

When those thoughts hit him, things would get bad. Sometimes he had to literally bite his tongue just to stop himself from telling Sam everything. There were a lot of close calls, but he hadn’t broken.

He was always able to talk himself down:

Why mess up what I have with Sam? It’s not like what I did means I love him any less.

Bucky would argue with himself, and for what it was worth, he’d win - he’d make it another day keeping the secret that he had once stolen Sam’s. However, he wasn’t foolish enough to believe he would be able to hold out forever - not with the guilt he felt over his actions, not with the love he felt for Sam. His control was slipping a little more each day.

So, yeah, Bucky knew he would tell Sam eventually and he knew the moment he did, barring some miracle, they would be over.

But at least they weren’t yet.

SteveTony & SamBucky Double Date

Couldn't help myself and finally wrote it 👍

___________________

“Tell me why we thought this was a good idea?”

Steve rolled his eyes, half-heartedly at his best friend, he was more concerned with the way Tony and Sam had made it their personal mission to win every stuffed monkey at the Fair’s fake shooting range. 

Considering guns wasn’t either of the superheroes' normal weapon, he was surprised at their accuracy. 

He tilted his head slightly at the two, “You wouldn’t have happened to show Tony how to use a gun, would ya’ Buck?”

Bucky let out a soft chuckle, “As if he could sit still long enough for me to teach him”

The two were interrupted by their respective boyfriends rushing back over to them, both had armfuls of stuffed monkeys in their arms.

“Here ya go!”, Tony dumped his armful into Steve’s lap, while Sam snickered at the two but kept his armful, even though Bucky was eyeing it warily

Steve tried (and failed) to contain all the monkeys in his arms, Bucky watched him amusedly as he sipped his coke

“Did you have to clean the poor man out?”, Steve asked, finally able to see over the mountains of monkeys.

It was true the booth owner had no more monkeys and was shooting glares at both Tony and Sam

Bucky glared back at the man over Sam's shoulder

Sam dumped his pile on the picnic table the four of them were currently occupying and took a seat beside Bucky, “I mean, Tony insisted that we did, once he found out the man had rigged the game”

Tony, who was sipping on his (Steve’s) coke scoffed, “That’s the least we could have done, did you see how he scammed that one kid out of all his money!”

“That’s just how these things work”, Bucky reminded him

Steve smiled softly at Tony, “Well now he has no more monkeys, so I don’t think anyone will be coming to his booth”,

Bucky looked over Tony’s and Sam’s pile of monkeys, “You guys don’t actually plan on keeping all of them do you?”

Sam scoffed at his boyfriend, “Uh, hell yes”

Steve looked over to Tony who was nodding along with Sam, “Plus we’ve already named them”, 

Bucky scrunched up his face in distaste, “Please, tell me you didn’t”

Tony reached over to grab one of Sam’s stuffed monkeys, “We named this one James Jr.,” he then shoved the monkey into Steve’s face, “God doesn’t he look just like his father?”

Sam burst out laughing, as Bucky grumbled under his breath

Steve couldn’t help but let out his own small laugh, which turned into full-on belly laughs as Sam and Tony began naming out more names for the monkeys

Bucky eventually gave in too, rolling his eyes fondly at the two of them.

Steve took a second to take in the smiling faces of his boyfriend and friends and realized he didn’t want to be anywhere else.

bruh. okay. this isnt like a BIG THING or whatever, but i think its still worth mentioning. sam doesnt look away after bucky goes to follow walker. bruh. how does one explain that. i dont understand why this just happened. why did he just stand there for an extra second watching as bucky goes. for funzies, obviously. also, take note of the line bucky tells him before he runs off. he looks at sam and says “i got it.” 

and he keeps his eyes on sam as he turns the corner, then turning out of frame. and sam watches him leave. i genuinely dont have an explanation for this scene. because it sticks out to me every time, because sam watches him, and bucky tells him, without saying the words, that: “it’ll be fine”. like WHY.

i feel this is a general consensus in the fandom but im gonna say it anyway. Sam and Bucky are fucking stupid for each other. like holy shit. Bucky saw Sam smile and walked into a table. Sam saw Bucky in tight jeans and almost fell off the boat. Sam fell asleep on the couch one night when Bucky got home late and Bucky tripped over his feet. Sam passed by Bucky helping AJ and Cass with their homework and dropped whatever he was holding. they are just stupid. and generally, Sam’s a very smart, business, competent person. he’s captain America for gods sake, obviously he is intelligent, but Bucky just makes him fucking dumb. like it’s laughable. like he would stumble over his words and shit, he’d just pause mid debrief because Bucky looked at him in a specific way. and Bucky was supposed to be smooth, and he gets back in his groove eventually, but Sam was living proof Bucky simply could not be smooth. Bucky was just so not smooth with Sam, he stumbled when he danced, and he didn’t have a little flirty smile when he smiled with Sam, he had a giant, eye scrunch grin on his face that physically hurt. they are so stupid for each other it’s funny.

the way Sam is introduced in the mcu is so great because like it wasn’t a post credit scene or anything. the guy was just. jogging. and decided “let’s flirt with Captain America” and now he IS Captain America. that is the best introduction in the mcu because like he’s just a guy but he’s a FUCKING BADASS who has FUCKING WINGS (and ptsd) AND FLIRTS WITH CAPTAIN AMERICA. and like how the falcon is introduced is literally throwing a guy BACK ONTO A BUILDING, IN JEANS AND A TSHIRT, helps interrogate information out of the guy he just tossed like a fucking soccer ball. in conclusion; Sam Wilson is FUCKING AWESOME and i love him and his epic entrances.

okay but does anyone else just remember that Sam and Bucky just… happened? like these two fuckers with major pstd found each other and just- even if you don’t see them as romantic they are just BEST FRIENDS. they love each other in anyway you want it and it’s nauseating. Now you win even more if you think they’re romantic because they’re best friends who fell in love. someone once said “im in love with their love” AND YEAH. like HOLY FUCK GUYS.

when you think about it... it's pretty reasonable to assume that these two days spent fixing the boat and training with Sam while getting to meet his family have been the best days of bucky's life since right before world war II... he said it himself his only moment of calm was in Wakanda but there's a difference between calm and happiness... he got properly happy with Sam for a second there

[i-have-zero-chill]

WTF WTF SAMBUCKY DRIVING ME iNSANE RN I CAN'T BELIEVE HE'S TALKING TO SARAH ABOUT MOVING IN WITH SAM HOLY SHIT. BUCKY TRYING TO WOO SAM and SAM NOT GETTING IT. BUCKY WANTING TO MOVE IN WITH SAM AND SAM NOT GETTING IT. HOW MANY FICS DOES TFATWS WANT US TO WRITE. I FEEL U N H I N G E D

You’re totally valid anon. When I saw it last night I was Not Well. We all thought he was flirting with Sarah and he’s literally just talking to her about Sam. Unbelievable. And even if the audio is somehow fake, the amount of fanfiction fuel that this fandom continues to receive is just very pleasing to me. Like we really never lose.

[livingincolorsagain]

2. Chapter 4 of careless whisper also has my heart. The confrontation scene between Sam and Bucky especially is very important. Also I was really happy with the song choice and how it’s echoed throughout the chapter. (I go back and forth between how I feel about my writing in the chapter, but it’s always special to me and ultimately I’m happy with it)

5. No you can’t say that! Have you read my ronarry stuff? No, you didn’t. (Okay and neither can I, but not the point)

6. gonna cry actually. brb

7. That would be chapter 5! I very vividly remember you reading it for the first time and our very emotional conversation afterwards. (Sorry for making you cry a lot)

8. (another crying break) omg you have no idea how much this means to me. thank you so much baby <333

10. sarahrhodey for the win!

11. one day. i promise. it deserves to see the light of day

14. it’s still absolutely crazy to me how much you like that fic. i didn’t even think you’d read it and you not only read, it’s one of your favourites now. man

15. I think I might, yes. Maybe towards the end.

i hope im in time but if not thats ok- #10 night at the museum for ur sambucky fluff diaries <3

You're just in time. You got the last slot, @meidui! Now here's the last date: Night at the Museum! 🥰

Date 28 of 28: Night at the Museum

| - 27 - | - Prompt - |

"Isn't there a movie about this? Why didn't we watch that movie to prepare for this," asked Bucky, looking particularly uncomfortable in the tuxedo Sharon had given him ("I'm not a penguin suit guy! I'm more of, like, a nice floral, Sharon.").

"Night at the Museum would not prepare us for this event, Bucky. It's about a museum coming to life after dark and the shenanigans that ensue," said Sam, turning the corner, actually kind of happy with the classy maroon piece Sharon picked out for him.

It was a last-minute thing. She and her mystery date had to go on some undercover mission or something and Sharon had told Sam and Bucky that someone had to go to the event to represent the team, and Joaquín already had plans, sooooo...

That was how Sam and Bucky got tickets to the Charity Auction Night at the Museum funding student programs at the Tulane Museum of Natural History, the two of them walking through the Birds Section, looking at the Ivory-Billed Woodpecker, glancing over at the Carrier Pigeon.

"Okay, that just sounds like a fun movie, why haven't we watched that yet?" asked Bucky frowning, grabbing champagne flutes and handing one to Sam, "Can we watch that tonight?"

"I guess we can see? I don't know if it's on a streaming service, though," said Sam, glancing at the different auction items, "Sharon said we can bid on one item on the list of auction items and put it on the Avengers card. Didn't the Avengers put an item up for auction for this, actually?"

Bucky smiled, leaning closer to Sam, wrapping an arm around Sam's waist, taking a sip of his champagne.

"Actually, I might have... bid on something. When you went to the bathroom," said Bucky, Sam raising his eyebrow.

"What?" asked Sam, a little unsure if he should actually ask.

"Well, you see the Avengers - they had this auction item which was 'A Date with Sam Wilson aka Captain America'. And. I sort of bid on that," said Bucky, Sam cackling.

"Bucky," said Sam through laughter, "You're making the Avengers pay for us to go out on a date?"

"Technically, they always do," Bucky pointed out, "This just isn't coming out of your wallet. Or mine."

Sam kept laughing.

"That's - that's fantastic, Bucky, I love that," said Sam, "But Sharon and Joaquín are going to be sooo pissed."

"Oh, like they didn't expect me to do that with our auction item being that," said Bucky, "Like I could ever refuse an opportunity to go out on a date with Sam Wilson."

Sam pulled Bucky in for a kiss.

"You're just - you're just so ridiculous," said Sam, "Truly. Sappiest Man on Earth. They should give you a prize."

"You say that like that's a bad thing," Bucky hummed, placing his champagne glass down, wrapping his other arm around Sam's waist so that Sam awkwardly had his boyfriend side-stepping next to him while he just walked like a normal person.

"Fine. Maybe it's sort of the best," said Sam, hating to admit it.

"Love you, sweetheart," said Bucky, giving Sam a kiss on the cheek.

"Love you, too," said Sam, leaning onto Bucky's chest, "Now, do you want to see the dinosaur bones or what?"

"Oh definitely. Then, we sneak out and watch that movie," said Bucky, moving away from Sam, grabbing his hand, and dragging him to the Paleontology Collection.

can't believe we were viciously tricked by that handshake pull towards the chest in the trailer they really had be believing this would be the falcon and his sidekick/bestie bucky show damn....sambuckys how are we feeling

Tbh it feels like I've been hoodwinked for the third time.

Civil War: we got this amazing Anthony & Seb press tour, there was a bunch of questions about their relationship, the were a bunch of early reviews talking about how great their scenes were and then there was literally two of them.

Infinity War: omg we're building on their frenemyship. "Most of my scenes were filmed with Anthony"- and then all their scenes got cut.

And now this. We are promised an exploration of their tentative friendship, but it's mostly two guys going through some stuff in coincidental proximity. It feels like all the buddy comedy antics we were promised was only for the trailers tbh

I was thinking about the need for more "marriage of convenience" sambucky stories, and this happened.

Meet Sam, the dazzling young crown prince of a faraway nation. And despite being adored by the general public, the fact that he still hasn't married and "settled down" has been a point of contention lately, especially now that his father is on his deathbed. Worried that his father might pass him and offer the throne to his younger brother (who's already married with 2 kids,) Sam sets out to find himself a partner, a task that's quickly proven to be harder than expected, even with dozens of people literally lining up to win the young prince's favor.

Enter Bucky, a player with a reputation and killer charm, who meets Sam one night when Sam's in town wearing his usual disguise. So Bucky doesn't clock him right away, instead all he sees is a good looking guy and he offers to buy him a drink.

Against his better judgment, Sam accepts. They get to talking, and something about Bucky draws Sam in, and in a moment of rash thinking (and one could argue no thinking at all,) he reveals his true identity and offers him a deal:

Bucky has to pretend to be Sam's husband in return for a place to live and a life of royalty he never could've dreamt of. Sam also assures Bucky that he's free to keep seeing whoever he wanted, as long as he's discreet about it.

Bucky, being the adventurous soul that he is, says yes in a heartbeat. (and maybe, just maybe, he's intrigued by this man, and wants to know him better and to spend more time with him.)

So they get married, and things are going well. The public buys it, and sooner or later Sam is going to be king.

They sleep in separate rooms (obviously) and with Sam's busy schedule, barely see one another except for celebrations and ceremonies in which Bucky has to make an appearance.

But as time passes, they start to see more of each other. Bucky wakes up one day to find Sam already up and having breakfast, so he joins him, and they talk a little over breakfast. They get to know more about each other, Bucky tells Sam more about himself, the accident that cost him his family and his arm, and Sam listens. Sam tells him about his own life, the untold truth of his job, and Bucky just... listens. He doesn't try to offer solutions, he doesn't judge, he just listens.

Something shifts in their dynamic after that day and they start spending more time with each other. Bucky "accidently" wakes up in time to catch Sam before he leaves for the day, and stays up late at night until Sam's home. Sam suddenly doesn't find royal celebration a waste of valuable time he could use working, and actually looks forward to them these days (the fact that Bucky's by his side the entire time, holding his hand and beaming at him definitely doesn't have anything to do with that, right?)

Sam comes home after the end of a long tiring day to find Bucky waiting for him as usual on the couch. He joins him, and starts unwinding. and as he tells Bucky about the latest disaster his father's senior advisor Walker has caused, Bucky listens attentively, maybe even offers a massage, only because his hands are magic and Sam looks tired.

And as they grow closer, Bucky reminds him that none of it is real. He's just there until Sam finds the real thing. and when he meets Sam's childhood friend and right hand man Steve Rogers, he thinks Sam already has. So he slowly retreats, gives them time alone whenever Steve is there to visit, thinking there's a romance blossoming between the two (there isn't) and he doesn't want to get in the way.

Sam too finds it hard to remember that everything is fake, that there isn't something growing between them with each heated touch and lingering look shared even in private. And when he comes home to his "husband" to find him waiting for him over a candlelit dinner, it's easy to get swept away in the fantasy.

Until one day Sam (somehow) discovers that Bucky hasn't been with anyone since they "got married" so he asks him, "Why?"

Bucky looks away, "I didn't want anyone to think we're faking it, or whatever," he mumbles. and Sam feeling brave after the wine they shared over dinner presses on, "Is that all?" he asks, his heart beating wildly, fighting to leap out of his chest. After a moment or so, Bucky looks him in the eye, a heated look and a different millone emotions plastered across his face. "no," he breathes.

Is it Bucky who leans forward? Is it Sam? who knows, what matters is that they finally do.

Just throw in some more drama, maybe even political trouble (an attempted coup by Senior advisor and Certified Trash Walker!? Sam's taken and Bucky's dark past comes to light as he goes absolutely feral looking for him "Where's my husband?" he roars through gritted teeth) and obviously some "the situation calls for it" PDA, a ballroom dancing scene with snarky comments traded back and forth between the two (this one's important) and you got yourself a story I'd kill to read.
