âAre you fucking kidding me?â You screamed, unbelieving of what you had just heard and stood up from your chair. âI am NOT doing this!â
âThink about it! Itâs the best option for both of you.â Steve tried reasoning with you and you scoffed. âBest option for both of us? Really?â You were incredulous.
You hadnât yet digested the shock of this morningâs news when Steve had barged into Buckyâs house. He really was fast. You and Bucky had barely began discussing the consequences and Steve was already there.
In the beginning he was a little angry at you for not informing him, but after telling him the whole truth about you two pretending in front of his family, he had the guts to say some of the wildest words youâd ever heard,
âThen pretend in front of the world!â
As if that was easy. You both were barely making it through two days, you definitely wouldnât survive longer. And you had no interest in the spotlight that came along with Bucky.
âOf course it is the best for you too. Youâre going to get famous!â Steve said as if it was the best thing ever. âNot famous Steve, infamous!â
While you were screaming at Steve, Bucky was quietly sitting in the corner of the room as if he had nothing to do with anything.
He had been working out this morning when you had called him and informed him of the leaked photos. He was used to people clicking his photos and leaking them, but he didnât realise that you might not like it.
âDo you even know what people will say? Iâm sure theyâre already calling me all sorts of names on Twitter. People will question my professionalism. Iâm not rich or a supermodel like Buckyâs previous girlfriends, Iâm a bloody no one and I like it that way!â
You still remembered the time he had started dating Natasha, while there were some groups that supported them, some were furious that their golden playboy was tied to someone.
âHave you even seen what people are saying? They love you!â You looked with scepticism at Steve when he said this. âWhy would they like me?â You squinted.
âBecause this love story is straight out of a story book! Everyone is absolutely adoring you two. For them to see Bucky fall for you is like a dream come true. Like real life Cinderella!â
Your jaw was hanging open when you heard Steveâs explanation. âHeâs saying the truth, look at this!â Bucky finally spoke up and showed you his Twitter feed.
âThe way he looks at her đ„șđ«â
It was a picture of you talking with Maddy as Bucky stared at you. It was the moment Bucky realised he was in love with you.
ââŠAnd the shoe fits the princess <3â
Along with it was the photo of Bucky inspecting your ankle.
âI want what they have đâ
Attached with it was the shot of Bucky smearing your ice cream on your nose as the kids giggled while you were oblivious.
Bucky looked slyly at the small smile that spread on your lips when you saw all those tweets. âSee, everyone loves you!â Steve said scrolling down. It was true, there was so many positive tweets. This was unexpected.
âWhat are you even expecting us to do?â You asked turning back to Steve. âItâs really simple. You both carry on whatever youâre doing, cuz itâs great. And once the heat of the moment is gone,⊠tell everyone you broke up.â
Steve tried gauging your reaction before continuing. âItâs refreshing to see Bucky with you. It looks so real and genuine. You both really look good together.â You shook your head at Steveâs words.
âBut itâs not real!â
Bucky couldnât stop the pang of hurt in his chest at your words. He had to tell you how he felt, soon. He just had to plan the when and how with Becca.
âBut they donât need to know that! Come on, let the heat of this matter pass and give the people what they want.â Steve tried reasoning with you.
âYouâre not gonna take no as an answer, are you?â You huffed out a defeated breath. âNope.â Steve smiled giddily as he knew from your look that he had won.
âOkay. Iâll be Buckyâs fake girlfriend.â Bucky and Steve both clapped excitedly. And you didnât know how to feel when Bucky said, âI love having you as my girlfriend!â
~~~
âYou played so well!â You complimented Bucky as he came back to the locker room for the half time break. Bucky smirked before bending down and pulling you into a kiss.
You melted into his arms as his lips moved against yours. He smelled of sweat and musk and you clinger to him. Bucky deepened the kiss and you moaned in his mouth as his tongue tangled with yours.
It was a minute before the cheers and shouts came from his teammates. You broke away from the kiss and buried your head in Buckyâs chest from embarrassment.
âI canât believe youâre with this fool. I thought you were smarter!â Sam Wilson, Buckyâs teammate, jested patting your back and you all broke into a fit of giggles. âYeah I am a fool in love with her.â Bucky replied back.
âOoooooâŠâ everyone in attendance shouted while your cheeks flamed with embarrassment and you playfully hit Bucky on his hand.
It had been around a mouth since the photos were leaked and for the whole time, you and Bucky had continued your lie. You fitted into the roles perfectly, rather a little too well.
Somedays, you questioned if any of this was real. And on those days, sleep didnât come easy to you. So by now, you had given up thinking about it.
âThank you pumpkin.â Bucky pressed a chaste kiss on your lips. You patted him on the arm once before taking your leave to go back to your seats. The teams definitely wanted to discuss strategy and you didnât want to disturb them.
You were walking through the posh halls to reach your VIP seat when you heard someone whistle lewdly at you. Your head snapped back to see Rumlow standing, leaning against the halls.
You were in your own head and you hadnât noticed him standing. Before you began working for Bucky, you used to work with Brock Rumlow.
Rumlow had crossed the line with you more than once and you had decided to leave and it was the best decision you had ever taken.
Brock and Bucky were sworn rivals on the ground and your change of teams had seemed to increase the enmity between them.
âIf you wanted some good cock, you couldâve told me. I fuck better than our Bucky boy.â Brock winked at you as he spewed this nonsense.
You knew he was up to no good, yet you werenât ready for these words to spill out of his lips. You looked around to see the hall was completely empty except you two, despite the break, people were too engrossed in the game to move.
âWhat are you even doing here? Arenât you supposed to be on the other side?â You pretended to hold your own despite literally shaking from within. Brock was never a good news.
âI thought of giving you a little visit. Did you miss me?â He licked his lips and his eyes darkened. You knew that even if you screamed, no one would hear you over the howling in the stadium.
So you started calculating in your head. It wouldnât take too long to just slip into the stands. They werenât far off, just few steps ahead and once you reached there, there would be a lot of people.
You gulped and decided to walk away without replying anything to Brock. You didnât want to waste your energy over him.
But as you turned away to walk, or run in a much practical sense, you felt a fist wrapped around your hand. Brock grinned as he pulled back your wrist.
You jerked for a moment, before regaining your footing. Without wasting another minute, you slapped him with your free hand. Your palm met his cheek with a satisfying noise.
âYou bitch!â Brock screamed in anger but before he could do anything, the loud voice that reverberated through the space made you both stand still.
âYou touch her and I break every. single. bone. in your body.â
Your both turned around to see Bucky fuming with his jaw set tight and his hands clenched in hard fists. The very next instant, you felt Brock let go of your wrist.
âThereâs no need of being angry, I was just having a fun chat withâŠâ before Brock could continue, Bucky was upon him. He held him by his jaw as he pushed Brock into the nearby wall.
âI know what you were talking about.â You feared either Bucky was going to break brockâs bones with how tight he was holding him, or he was going to crush his own teeth due to clenching them so hard.
âBucky let him go.â You interjected. You didnât want to cause a scene right in between the match, because thatâs exactly what Rumlow wanted.
You knew that when Bucky got angry, he didnât really think. If Bucky actually beat brock right now, Bucky would be the one in trouble and get his reputation ruined.
âThis is exactly what he wants. Donât him the satisfaction, please.â You placed your hand on Buckyâs shoulder and you could feel how tense his muscles were.
Bucky gave you a look before releasing Rumlow. âIf I ever see you even near her again, I swear to god, you wouldnât like what would happen next.â
Rumlow grinned and brushed off his shoulder before walking away wordlessly. He got the rise he wanted out of Bucky and he did seem smug.
âAre you okay?â Bucky quick change in demeanour took you by surprise. He took your hand within his and gently inspected it for any harm.
âIâm good Bucky. How are you here?â You had no idea why Bucky had come behind you. Bucky suddenly looked shy before he answered. âI just⊠I just wanted one more good luck kiss.â
You both giggled before you placed your lips over his. It was a sweet and gentle connection as you both lost yourselves to it. You were both smiling giddily when you parted.
âNow go or youâll get late.â You playfully shoved Bucky ahead. âYeah yeah. Iâm going.,, take care of yourself.â His eyes looked worried before he went back and you finally entered the stands.
~~~
Bucky knew what he was going to do. The plan was set perfectly in his head, he just had to implement it. If Brock thought he had gotten away after that stupid stunt, he was so wrong.
No one could get away with hurting his pumpkin.
He wiped the sweat off his brow once before focusing his gaze. He knew where he had to kick the ball, and it wasnât the goal.
He knew all the gazes were concentrated on him as he tackled the ball away from the rivals and towards the net. But for once, he wasnât going to do what they wanted him to.
His eyes set on Rumlow who was circling him like a hawk. Bucky waited until Rumlow was in line with the goal. He wasnât interested in getting his name ruined and he wanted it to be an accident.
Because the next moment, Bucky kicked the ball straight into Brocksâs face. The moment the ball impacted with his face was a scene Bucky wonât be forgetting anytime soon.
He definitely lost a few teeth, Bucky thought grinning to himself. But he quickly pretended to be worried as he walked over to Rumlow who was holding his jaw and had doubled down with pain.
The game was stopped for a some time as the medics rushed over to check up on him. Before they or anyone else could reach, Bucky bent over the wailing Brock.
âYou fucker!â Brockâs face was bloodied and Bucky had a clear idea of how much pain it was causing him to even speak a single syllable.
âOopsâŠâ was all Bucky said sarcastically. Rumlow clutched Buckyâs hand with his fingers and Buckyâs eyes turned hard.
His grip was weak and Bucky couldâve pulled away anytime, but he wanted to listen what Brock wanted to say. Rumlow spit some blood out before saying in a raspy voice,
âIâm gonna take her away from you.â
~~~
âBucky..!â You squirmed as Buckyâs hand squeezed your hips. âPeople are watching.â You murmured but Bucky didnât stop his ministrations and honestly, you didnât want him to.
You were at some party Bucky had dragged you along. You were too tired to even remember what exactly was the occasion. But you agreed only because Bucky would be there.
It had been a week since the incident where Bucky accidentally hit brock. You didnât believe him because you knew Bucky had an excellent aim. But he still was pressing that it was by chance.
Even though you werenât buying it, the press and the fans bought the facade very well. Everyone was even praising Bucky for checking up on Rumlow despite him being a rival.
Rumlow was also present at the party, but he was smartly avoiding both of you. But you didnât think much about it because Bucky was constantly petting you and distracting you.
âLet them watch.â Bucky nibbled on your earlobe and your playfully hit him on his hand. âI canât wait to get you home and tear your dress and fuck you right on the couch.â
You gulped thinking about the image it created in your head. Bucky still hadnât cleared anything with you and you supposed he was with you just for PR and a good fuck. And you werenât going to stop him anytime soon.
You fantasised about him asking you out for real, but thatâs all it was, a fantasy. You werenât even sure if he was exclusive or he was still getting laid with other people.
You tried not thinking about it though, because it did nothing except hurt you. Instead you tried enjoying every second he was with you.
Right now was one such moment. You were loving the way Bucky was touching you, uncaring of the opinion of the others. But you had to excuse yourself for the moment.
âBucky.. can you excuse me for a minute.â You said squirming on his lap. âNo. Stay with me.â He nuzzled further into your neck. âNo no not like that Bucky. I just need to use the loo real quick.â
Understanding dawned on his face and he nodded. âYeah okay. Sorry.â He kissed you on the lips before letting you go and you quickly scurried into the washrooms.
Bucky looked to find someone known, but after finding no luck in doing so, he simply started wandering off. Because if he just sat in a place, he might probably fall asleep.
He was only tolerating this boring party because you were by his side and he was able to see you in that beautiful dress you were wearing.
He was looking at the various expensive painting and walking by the sidelines when a slender hand clutched tie and pulled him in a room.
âWoah!â Bucky let out a squeak at the sudden gesture. The lighting in the room wasnât as good and it took him a moment to settle his eyes.
âWhat are you doing?â Bucky nearly yelled at the woman standing in front of him. She was smelling of a too strong perfume and Buckyâs nose twinged in annoyance.
âDonât worry daddy, Iâll show you a piece of heaven.â Bucky shook his head at her words. âOh god. Okay wow. No. Get off me!â Everything was happening so fast that Bucky didnât have time to comprehend.
One minute the woman was staring in his eyes and the next his lips were plastered to his. He held her arms to push her away but just then he heard the door open.
On the other hand, you started searching for Bucky when you noticed he wasnât where you had left him. That man had wheels for legs and he usually had a habit of wandering away.
âAre you searching for Bucky?â You whipped your head around when someone whispered this in your ear, only to realise it was Brock. âNo.â You straightway lied on his face and started walking away.
âHey wait! Iâm sorry okay. Iâm sorry for what I did that day.â You stopped when you heard him apologise. Rumlow didnât look like a man whoâd say sorry.
âI really wanna make it up to you. I donât know how but right now, I know where Bucky is. Heâs in the second door to the left.â You gave him a small smile and a little thank you before departing.
What you didnât see was the malicious glint Brock gave when you turned around.
You walked over to the room Rumlow had told you and opened the door without thinking much only to gasp when you saw Bucky making out with someone.
Bucky pulled out of the kiss when he saw you. âItâs not what you think it is!â He shouted but it was already too late. Tears had already paved their way on your cheeks.
There was this heavy feeling in your chest that you hadnât felt in a long time. And it took you a minute to realise that it was the feeling of your heart shattering.
What did you expect? He was Bucky Barnes and this was his lifestyle. Why had you been so stupid to believe he could be yours?
You didnât even realise you were crying until Bucky wiped off your tears and you inadvertently flinched back at his touch. That little gesture was what broke Buckyâs heart.
Ashamed of your own false hopes, you buried your face in your hands. You wanted to run and hide but there was no where to go. âPlease please⊠itâs nothing like that. I donât even know her name!â Bucky exclaimed.
âYou donât know the names of half the girls you fuck Bucky.â You peeked through your fingers to see Brock had come back. And it wasnât just brock, but nearly half the people at the party had gathered in that corner to look at you and Bucky.
âYou shut the fuck up!â Bucky screamed at Brock and he just smugly shrugged. âIâm not wrong, am I?â You knew Brock wasnât wrong.
You could see clear judgement in everyoneâs eyes as they stared down upon you. And then there was Bucky, you wanted to believe him, but you knew his habits. He had cheated on almost all of his previous girlfriends.
Everything felt too much. The judgemental stares, the lights in the room which felt as if they were focusing on you. So you did the only thing your brain was telling you too. Run.
You clutched your dress and ran blindly looking for an exit. You could hear Buckyâs voice calling you to stop and running in heels was proving very difficult yet you didnât stop. You couldnât stop.
The fresh crisp air filled your lungs as you opened a random door and finally left the suffocating hall. You placed your hand on your knees and panted for a moment.
You were about to start running again when a hand wrapped around your wrist and stopped you. It was Bucky. âJust listen to me once!â
âBucky, Iâm not mad at you.â You said when you found your voice back. âNot even a little bit. Iâm just⊠Iâm just disappointed in myselfâŠ.â
You were in love with BuckyâŠ
You were actually angry at your own self for falling for Bucky despite knowing how he was. Despite knowing that this was all fake, a mere pretence.
âI canât do this anymore. Iâm sorry.â You held his hand on your for a minute and relished in its weight before leaving it and turning around.
He could see the tears in your eyes, the way they twinkled in the lights. It was a fact as clear as day that you and Bucky werenât meant to be together.
Bucky wanted to stop you. But he didnât want to be your burden anymore. You had already tolerated him so much, he couldnât expect more out of you even though it completely shattered him to let you go.
So he stood there, unmoving, as he looked at your form disappear into the night air.
