The Line

Summary: You claim that you like being scared, Bucky obliges.

Warnings: spooky, steamy but no smut

1400 words

Masterlist

You are sitting on the couch, facing the TV when Bucky steps into the common room. You jump and turn to look at him, a hand on your heart and your eyes wild.

"Jesus, you scared the crap out of me!" You chuckle breathlessly, and he can hear your heart pounding from across the room.

He glances at the screen in front of you, where a man is getting chased by a shadow in the woods, ominous music blaring through the speakers.

"You're the one watching scary movies in the middle of the night," Bucky tilts his head, "again. No wonder you can't sleep."

It's the fourth time this month that he caught you in this situation. Always late at night, alone, watching some gory movie, with your heart pounding and your breathing loud. It's on the second night that he noticed how much he liked the sight.

"I like being spooked," you shrug, smiling at him over the back of the couch, "it's just a movie, I'm not in actual danger."

Bucky chuckles at that, wondering if he could make you feel that way. It's a twisted thought, but it makes his body buzz with anticipation.

Two days later, Bucky watches you disappear behind the tree line, and he slides the hood of his black sweatshirt over his head. Following close behind, he moves like a cat around the trees, biding his time. He has been trained for this, he knows how to not be noticed. But he wants you scared, he wants to make your heart race, to make you feel the same way as those movies do. So he steps on a twig.

Your head snaps in his direction, but he's well hidden, and he watches you scan your surrounding. After a second or two, you keep moving, probably thinking it was an animal. So he gets closer to you, and ruffles some leaves from a bush. You stop again, this time stepping closer. He stays hidden, and he can feel his stomach twisting from the adrenaline.

The Winter Soldier had to do this a lot. Stalk an unsuspecting person, not making his presence known until the final moment, when he would be ready to strike. But the Winter Soldier never felt a thing.

Now, he can hear his heart beat speed up, much like yours is surely doing too. Your eyes grow worried as you keep checking over your shoulder, and each time you do, the pit in his stomach grows as he dives behind a tree to hide.

You keep walking though, further and further away from the safe compound, and he can't help but chuckle at your lack of survival skills. You're an easy prey. You unknowingly give him many opportunities to pounce, but he takes his time. He doesn't want you to be worried, he wants the adrenaline to rush through your veins, and he wants you to be afraid for your life. Another snapped twig, heavy footsteps here and there and he can almost see your chest heave as the panic rises.

Bucky eventually decides to step it up. He lets you take a bit more distance, before standing right in the middle of the path you just took, his hood pulled low over his face, hands buried in his pockets. This time, he doesn't have to make a noise for you to look back in his direction.

Your eyes grow wide as you spot the threatening silhouette behind you, and a smirk grows on his lips. Why does he like it so much? You are his friend, and he is enjoying the look of panic on your face. He can guess how tight your muscles are, as you stand still for a second, paralyzed by fear.

Then you take off running in the opposite direction. He is still smiling as he chases after you, quickly catching up. You check behind you and as you see him get closer, you let out a yelp that goes straight into his pants. His brow furrows for a second, but he doesn't stop running. That's a new sensation, and he is willing to go with it. It seems that he likes to scare you just as much as you like to be scared.

He knows that right now, you are actually scared. This is not the same thing as watching a serial killer through a screen, from the comfort of a soft couch. You are actually running for your life, chased by a stranger through the woods. But as soon as Bucky lets you know that it's only him - although still a serial killer technically, you will be fine. Maybe you will be mad at him for a few moments, but you are not in actual danger.

He can hear your breathing getting louder above the sound of your feet on the forest floor, so he stops and hides behind a tree again. After a few seconds, you check above your shoulder and stops to a halt when you can't see anyone behind you anymore. He watches you spin on yourself, trying to spot anything through the thick foliage, as your chest rises with each ragged breath, your eyes wild and some hair stuck to your face with sweat.

Stepping through the bushes and around the trees, like he is part of the forest itself, Bucky makes his way around you without a single noise. When you spin around again, he is suddenly standing right here, mere inches from your face, his own still hidden by his hood. You let out a blood-curdling scream, but Bucky quickly presses his vibranium hand on your mouth, pushing you against the trunk of the closest tree.

His body molds into yours, and he can feel your heart threatening to rip through your ribcage, just as much as he can feel his hard length pushing against your thigh. Your hands hit his shoulders, trying to push him away unsuccessfully. Your eyes fall on the metal pressed against your lips and now you look angry, although your body relaxes in his arms. He grins and frees your mouth.

"Bucky?!" You pant, landing another hit on his left shoulder.

"Hi," he chuckles, pulling the hood of his sweatshirt off his hair.

"What is wrong with you?!" You yell, writhing against his hands, but his hold gets tighter, keeping you trapped between his hard body and the tree. "I thought I was about to die!"

"I'm sorry," that's a lie, "you said you liked being scared. I thought I'd check if you really meant it," he shrugs, a shit-eating grin still stuck to his face.

"Fuck," you breathe out, letting your head hit the rough bark, as your chest keeps heaving to help you calm down. You shift against him, and a spark flashes in your eyes, the hint of a smirk gracing your lips. "Seems like you liked scaring me."

His smile drops and the air suddenly feels heavier around Bucky, as he lets his eyes roam your exposed neck, glistening with sweat, down to your breasts pressing against his chest with each breath. He can actually see your heart still pounding. His own rush of adrenaline is still running through his veins, and he should definitely step away from you, before stepping over the line.

But your hands are now fisting his black hoodie on his shoulders, keeping him in place against you as you try to ground yourself and get a hold of your breathing. That is when the smell hits him. Among the salty notes of your sweat and your flowery shampoo, he finds something sweeter, even more you. You don't simply like being scared, it turns you on.

"What are you going to do now that you've caught me?" You bite your bottom lip and his eyes found yours, a lot darker that they were a second ago.

She's your friend, she's your friend, she's your friend... The voice keeps chanting in his head, but it gets quieter and quieter. It's silenced completely when you grind your hips against his. Fuck the line, jump over it.

Bucky glances at your lips and it's your only warning before he kisses you.

Elevator whump

Still a firm believer and here’s why:

Essence of elevator whump: Trapped in a box with your worst nightmare!

The potential for public whump

Angst and fear all the way up (or down)

To elaborate, here’s some brain juice:

- Whumpee being coaxed by their arm to the back of the elevator, Whumper standing in silence next to them as more people get in.

- Shushing them, maybe a gun or knife pressed into their back.

- “Make a sound and everyone in this box is dead.” whispered just as the doors close.

- A possessive hand on their shoulder and Whumpee having to hide the fear in their eyes and fake a smile as people they know get in and greet them.

- Or Whumpee gets in, oblivious. Maybe too preoccupied with their phone or thoughts to take a look at the people in the elevator. They turn to face the doors and suddenly they feel something sharp press into their side.

- “So good to see you again, my love.”

- Whumpee getting into the elevator alone, maybe on the run, letting out a sigh as the doors close but just then, a hand or foot is jammed between the doors and Whumpee can only watch as the doors slowly reopen and they stare right in the face of Whumper.

- Also, did you mean: Whumpee frantically slamming the buttons to be able to close the doors in time. They fail, of course.

- When they want to get out on the first available floor the elevator stops, but a hand to their shoulder, or around their arm holds them back and Whumpee has to watch in despair as other people get out. All of them. Leaving them alone with...

- Or the Whumpee is riding the elevator, perhaps with friends even. And the doors open and Whumper steps in.

- He grins, stands behind them, and Whumpee has to struggle to put on a happy face, offering forced smiles at their friends’ jokes.

- If they’re completely alone, they back away, against the wall, and Whumper with a predatory grin presses in on them.

- Better yet: they absentmindedly step out of the elevator (nearly) bump into someone. And when they look up, they completely freeze.

- Sparing Whumper the trouble of having to push them back into the elevator because they’re already backing away in complete disbelief <3

- Or, other way around, they are waiting for the elevator, it dings, the doors open, and who steps out? =3 =3

WoW Birthday Whump Prompts List

Whumpril Prompts List

The Legend of Orian Goldeneye Masterpost

part 1

TW: chased, unconsciousness, head injury, dizziness, swearing

Context: Killian's still unconscious, and now Jas is running for their lives from a very pissed-off plant.

-----

Of course the fucking trees were alive.

Alive and very, very angry.

At least, Jas assumed it was angry. It wouldn’t be chasing her if it was happy or sad or annoyed or—

Well, maybe if it was annoyed.

“I said I was sorry!” She yelled, running desperately for her life. Well, her and Killian’s lives. The fabergé egg of a human was still unconscious. “If I’d known you could feel pain,” she continued between gasps of air, “I wouldn’t have jumped on you!”

The pine tree’s furious stomping was her only response. Thank God it was slow. Even with Killian across her shoulders, she could stay ahead of it. But she couldn’t outrun it forever. And if more of them showed up….

Jas kept running, swerving around the regular, boring, immobile trees, trying to lose the angry one in the darkness. But the thing kept on her trail. Did it even have eyes? Ears? How did it know where she was? Vibrations in the ground, maybe?

Not much she could do if it was that. She just had to get to the light she’d seen from the cliff. Maybe whoever was there could—

Jas's foot struck an unseen root, and she pitched forward and landed heavily on the ground. She cursed as she scrambled forward, trying to regain her footing, but the root wrapped around her ankle and dragged her backward. Thinking quickly, Jas pushed Killian off her shoulders and let the root pull her, scrabbling through the bag for anything useful.

A knife to cut the root, a flamethrower to burn the forest down, something.

The pine tree lifted her off the ground, upside down, and glared at her with something that resembled a face carved into the bark. The base of its trunk had split, forming crude legs, and rough ‘arms’ had formed from a combination of trunk and branch. Jas held on tightly to the bag but gave up searching for a weapon. 

“Look,” Jas said, getting dizzy from the blood rushing to her head, “I realize that I hurt you when I jumped from the cliff, and for that I’m sorry. But he—” she pointed back to Killian— “is injured, and will probably die if I don’t patch him up.”

The tree didn’t react. Maybe it really didn’t have ears. They stared at each other for a few seconds that stretched into minutes.

“So…” Jas began, “are you going to kill me, or—”

The tree let go of her without warning, sending her to the dirt. Pain exploded in Jas’s head as she slammed into the ground, the headache returning in full force. She watched in a daze as it turned and stomped away into the darkness; the only traces of its passage were the strangely shaped footprints left behind in the dirt. Despite its size, it had not broken a single tree branch.

Exhaling slowly, she picked herself up off the ground, slinging the bag back over her shoulder. Pain hammered in her skull, but she had to keep moving. Something might have scared it off, and what if—

“...Jas?”

She jumped and whirled around to find Killian carefully sitting up, hand clutching the side of his head. “Was that… a tree?”

Jas quickly glanced over her shoulder. “Uh… yep.”

“And it was walking….”

“...yep.”

“How…?”

Jas just shrugged. “Dunno. I kind of pissed it off after I jumped on it and broke some branches, but it didn’t seem interested in killing me, so….” She handed him his jacket. “There’s a camp not far from here, I think. I’m hoping we can find help and shelter there so I can patch you up.”

Killian blinked. “Jumped… on… it…?” He glanced down at the bruises on his arms and back at her before slipping on the jacket. “Patch me up? Jas….”

“It looks worse than it is,” Jas waved him off, grabbing his hand. “Brace yourself.” She yanked him to his feet. 

Killian’s eyes glazed over, and the color flooded out of his face. He staggered, leaning heavily on Jas for support. “Oh… okay… I see that now….”

“Can you walk?”

He paused, thinking. “I think so….”

“Good. We don’t have time to rest here, we don’t know what else is hiding in these woods.” Or the tree might come back. Either way, Jas didn’t want to be here for any longer than necessary.

“Do you have the Pendant!”

Jas showed him the chain under her shirt. “It’s in better condition than both of us combined.”

Killian nodded and steeled himself. “Okay. Let’s go.”

Febuwhump Day 27 - Left For Dead

From The Prince of Thieves:

“The thief… He will die.” He draws closer now, eyes wrathful and wild and wide as he repeats, “William Wardrew will die.”

I know this, and I wish I didn’t. But it means that Will is not dead yet.

“He was playing the hero again, you know. Giving you your chance to run.” He lets his pause drag on. “For nothing, obviously.”

There must be something warm and alive left in me yet, because there are tears welling in my eyes. Burning, stinging heat.

“Still you left him behind. Left him to die. Because that’s what Breanna Cooper does, isn’t it? She runs away.”

I so desperately want to tell him it isn’t true.

“Are you going to run again? Make me chase you?” He takes a few more steps, fast and sure and agile now. Flaunting the fact that he is healthy and not half-frozen. I back away, breaths coming more frantically now. “I don’t wish to turn this into a spectacle. But I will.”
