Excerpt:
Bucky gestured to the empty street with outstretched arms. The soft skin on the inside of his bicep ignited a powerful emotion inside Steve. "Out here in public? In this role, carrying that shield? You're so hard on yourself, trying to be something else. Trying to fit into a certain mold."
Bucky's hand touched Steve's cheek, thumb stroking the rough beard that had grown. Touch he hadn't felt in so long.
"But when you're with me, you're just you. Steve Rogers. Full of joy and empathy, free to do and say and feel normal human emotions. If you can't see that for yourself, why were you given a second chance at life?"
A second chance. The serum had pulled him back from the dead, preserving him for the future. For this moment.
Summary: below the cut
Ethics Professor!Bucky is barely holding it together, taking over an equine-assisted rehabilitation facility after his partner died, while working on a second doctorate. Cap!Steve, suffering from PTSD and flashbacks, is considering retirement, especially after the latest mission that left him temporarily paralyzed with a spinal injury. It doesn’t take long for the two men, affection starved and hurting, to find love in spite of both harboring a huge secret.
READ THE ENTIRE WORK ON AO3!
Major kudos to the mods for a really well organized event. This bang was a ton of fun, and I’ll definitely be participating in the next one! ❤️

Title: Birthplace of Steve Rogers

Rating: Explicit
Pairings: Captain America Steve Rogers/Modern Bucky Barnes
Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Museum Tour Guide Bucky, Pre-The Avengers (Movie), Dating a Celebrity, Coming Out, Mistaken Identity, Steve Rogers's name being used in vain by conservatives to justify homophobia
Summary:
When he comes out of the ice in 2011, Steve meets a museum tour guide working at his childhood home and realizes that he has a lot to learn about himself, relationships, and what it means to be in love.
Excerpt:
Steve furrowed his brow, and then, well, he had to laugh. “God, you have no idea how good it feels to have someone be that honest with me.”
Bucky, however, didn’t respond. Instead, he glanced in his direction just once as he licked his ice cream cone, and the look that he gave him made fire kick up his spine. Steve sucked in his breath and did his best to think of something un-sexy–in this case, the first thing that popped into his head was Sitwell explaining how to use a computer to him–and that did the trick for a moment.
“What?” Bucky asked, like he didn’t know what he was doing.
“My uh–apartment isn’t that far from here,” Steve said for no reason at all, rubbing a hand against the back of his neck in an effort to keep his heart from jumping straight into his throat.
Bucky grinned. “Is that so?”
Steve let out a breath. “No, it’s actually pretty far from here, I panicked.”

Pairings: Captain America Steve Rogers/Modern Bucky Barnes, minor one-sided Bucky/Thor
Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Shrunkyclunks, Reporter!Bucky, post-Avengers (2012), meet-ugly, minor injuries, mild hurt/comfort, Bucky is a walking spoiler alert, alien invasion, canon typical violence, Bucky has a tiny crush on Thor, getting together, Avengers Tower, gay Bucky Barnes
Summary:
The Avengers have a problem. Six months after the Battle of New York, public opinion is beginning to turn on them and they are in dire need of a PR boost.
Reporter Bucky Barnes needs to impress his boss enough to get a promotion onto the Features desk. This assignment might get him there, but the fact that he really hates the Avengers is the least of his problems today…
Excerpt:
“Thanks for pulling me outta there. I didn’t even see that alien coming,” Bucky says before letting out an astonished breath. “Oh my god, that was an alien.”
“We actually don’t know what species they are yet,” Steve reminds him.
“It’s from space, right?”
“Yeah.”
“So, an alien,” Bucky replies and Steve laughs, loud and melodious.
“Yeah, an alien.”
“Holy shit.” Bucky's fingers are so dirty, he’s just noticing that now. He rubs them against his pants in a futile effort to clean them; pants that were bought especially for this interview and are ruined now. Maybe he can give the dry cleaning bill to Tony Stark after this.
What the hell is he doing here?
“It’ll be over soon,” Steve reassures, placing a steadying hand briefly on Bucky’s knee. “Half-hour, tops. Then we’ll be on our way back home before you know it.”
“Is this a daily thing for you? How many times a week do aliens shoot outta the sky that we never hear about?”
“So far? Just twice. A couple of other top secret missions I can’t talk about, but this is only the second alien thing. Don’t worry.”
“Easy for you to say. I’m just a kid from Brooklyn.”
Steve snorts. “So am I.”

Summary:
In the wake of the Battle of New York, Bucky Barnes bade his old life, or what was left of it, farewell. Buying a deserted cabin in the Catskills, he grew a beard, took up woodworking, and built a new life for himself as a carpenter. Six years on, Bucky still leads a peaceful, if solitary, existence. Maybe it get a little lonely sometimes, but that’s why he got himself a dog. And a cat. And a goat. All in all, Bucky is perfectly content with the way things are – until he meets Steve.
In 2018, Steve Rogers finally hangs up his shield. He trades Avenging and New York City for the peace and quiet of the Catskills, grows a beard, and isolates himself in an attempt to salvage what’s left of his sanity and identity. After living his life in the public eye for so long, Steve believes that calm and solitude are exactly what he needs. Of course, he didn’t count on meeting Bucky Barnes.
A story about healing, woodworking, and big, bearded men falling in love.
Excerpt:
“This is really good,” Steve repeats for the third time, as he helps himself to more of the plain pumpkin stew Bucky prepared last night. “You know, I can’t even remember the last time I had a hot meal.”
Bucky’s own spoon halts halfway to his mouth, hovering mid-air as he stares at Steve. “What d’you mean? Then what do you eat?”
“Hm?” Steve looks up, blinking big, blue eyes at Bucky and quickly swallowing his mouthful of stew before speaking. “Oh, just stuff I buy in town that keeps, mostly. I don’t have a fridge or a freezer, so there’s only so much I can eat unless I want to head into town every couple of days, which I don’t really wanna do. It’s a pretty long way, and I don’t have a car. Plus, you know. People.”
This time, Bucky can’t contain his curiosity. “So where do you live?” he asks, hoping he’s not overstepping.
Steve frowns, licking his lips. “I’m not sure what the area’s called, actually, but it’s pretty remote. I set up camp about thirty miles south from here, ‘s about fifteen miles from the town where we met?”
“But… you said you pass by my cabin on your runs?”
“Oh, um.” Steve rubs the back of his neck, a light blush dusting his cheeks, above the line of his beard. It’s unfairly attractive. “Yeah, I tend to run pretty long distances.”
“No kidding,” Bucky mutters, reeling a little as he turns back to his stew. “And when you say ‘camp’, you mean…”
“I mean I’m living in a tent, basically,” Steve admits, confirming Bucky’s suspicions. “I like it, though.”
“Right,” Bucky nods, reminding himself that some people like camping. “Okay. But, you have electricity, right? Running water?”
Steve shakes his head. “I don’t. There’s this really clear stream running past my camp though, I wash up in that. Got batteries for my flashlight and my Walkman. Don’t need much else, to be honest.”
Right, Bucky thinks. Definitely ex-military.

Title: More Than The Sum Of Our Faults
Posting: The week of July 31st
Author: Oh_i_swear @oh-i-swear-writes [AO3]
Artist: Sophie @lemonadeswift [AO3]
Rating: Explicit
Pairings: Captain America Steve Rogers/Modern Bucky Barnes
Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Shrunkyclunks, Dog Dad Steve Rogers, Dog Dad Bucky Barnes, Veteran Bucky Barnes, Doggy day Care, Recovery, Meet cute, Some trauma, PTSD, idiots falling in love
Summary:
When Steve Rogers adopts a dog he rescued from a collapsed building he realizes that due to the nature of his job he needs a dog sitter. Enter Becca Barnes, owner and sole proprietor of Happy Hounds, a dog walking and sitting service that comes Sam-Wilson-approved.
What Steve didn’t bank on was the gorgeous owner of his dog’s best puppy pal who happens to also be Becca’s older veteran brother, and he certainly didn’t bank on running into the man - quite literally, let alone falling completely in love with him.
Excerpt:
“Maybe we can do this again? Over the weekend? Or early next week - any uh… Avengers calls notwithstanding, of course,” he says softly and Bucky is shocked to discover that he so wants to say yes… and that’s why he has to say exactly what’s on his mind.
There’s a part of him that had always remained hidden for the sake of ease during his military career, and it shouldn’t be an issue but Bucky knows that for some modern guys it is, let alone guys who were born in the Depression Era before the war, and certainly before LGBTQ rights were a thing. And sure, if Steve is uncomfortable with who Bucky is fundamentally that’s going to be way more disappointing than it really has any right to be, but Bucky would rather know now than later.
“I’m gay,” he blurts out, immediately feeling the colour rise in his cheeks because really, he’s not sure it would have been possible for him to be less smooth in that particular moment.
Steve, to his credit, blinks a couple of times but doesn’t look massively surprised.

Pairings: Captain America Steve Rogers/Modern Bucky Barnes, minor Maria Rambeau/Carol Danvers, minor Natasha Romanov/Sam Wilson

Summary:
Steve is a man out of time, trying to build a life in a new century when he meets Bucky, a New York firefighter helping with cleanup and rescue after the Battle of New York.
Their relationship looks perfect for a while, but a couple years later, they’re broken up.
Going back and forth between past and present, we’ll see how they fell in love, how their relationship fell apart and how it will eventually fall back into place.
Excerpt:
“So,” they say at the same time, pulling a little chuckle from both of them, the tension seemingly easing a little bit.
“You first,” Bucky offers, knowing Steve is about to say the same thing. Bucky isn’t sure what he’d say, so it’s better to let Steve start anyway.
“I just–” Steve starts but deflates quickly. He plays with his fingers nervously for a second, clearly anxious again.
“I’m sorry,” Bucky blurts out before he realizes it. Steve’s eyes shoot up from where he was staring at his hands, something in his eyes Bucky has never seen during the year and a half they dated.
“What?” Steve asks, his voice hoarse but there’s a hint of surprise in his words.
“I– I’m sorry,” he repeats, now hesitant. “The way things ended, it wasn’t right.”
Steve looks at him for a minute, his eyes studying Bucky’s face slowly. He doesn’t know what Steve is looking for, but Steve’s gaze is heavy and makes Bucky want to squirm. He hasn’t had this look directed at him in a long time and he forgot how it made him feel; seen and known. Steve had always managed to make him feel like that – when he was there, that is.
“It was necessary, though,” Steve finally says, his eyes slowly moving back to Bucky’s. They stare at each other silently for a second before Steve adds. “So, don’t be sorry.”

Title: A Nice Brooklyn Boy

Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Developing relationship, strangers to dating, modern AU, bakery meet cute, people meddle for Steve, find a nice Brooklyn boy!, clueless Bucky, humor, confusion
Summary:
Steve finally gets some time to himself about a month after the battle of New York, and since he hasn't had much free time in general since defrosting, goes to see what Brooklyn is like these days. He finds one Italian bakery in particular, a family-run affair with a few familiar faces still there, and Steve starts to become more than just Captain America again. His civilian friends take it on themselves to find Steve someone nice to date, and play matchmaker between he and Bucky. Bucky, who knows superheroes saved the city but hey, work has been busy, doesn't really register that his boyfriend is the same guy who fights bad guys with a shield. Steve relishes that but enter Tony and Nat to make sure Bucky is who he says he is and not just trying to pull a fast one on Steve…
Excerpt:
“Have you noticed anything strange about Rogers?” Tony asked.
Natasha crossed his arms. “He’s a super soldier from the 1940’s, care to be more specific?”
“I think he’s seeing someone,” he announced, and she raised a perfectly trimmed eyebrow. “I don’t know who, and Jarvis is on his side, the traitor.”
“What makes you think he’s seeing someone?” she asked.
“Haven’t you noticed the way he smiles at his phone sometimes, and that he’s on it more these days? I even saw him taking a selfie!” Tony hissed, throwing his arms up. “I didn’t think he knew what that was!”
“And your point is?”
“My point is, we need to figure out who it is.”

Summary:
Steve Rogers supposes he’s happy. Almost three years out of the ice, he lives in Avengers Tower, leads ops for SHIELD and Tony Stark, and partners with Nat and Clint (in more ways than one) in a thriving private security business on the side. But when he meets arrogant tech billionaire Bucky Barnes, it’s hate at first sight. Barnes is a terrible dickwad — it’s a shame he’s so hot and so good in bed. Steve can’t get him out of his head, and his life is further complicated by the appearance of a hypercompetent vigilante assassin who almost ruins one of his private security jobs. Who is “the Winter Soldier” and how is he so good? And why does Steve secretly sympathize with his anti-fascist agenda? When Fury asks Steve to protect Project Insight from the Soldier, Steve’s life gets even more complicated. But with a little faith, some strategic latex, and a lot of explosions, everything is eventually resolved to everyone’s satisfaction. Except the Nazis.
Excerpt:
Bucky takes a step closer, and now his alluring scent — vetiver, sandalwood, a hint of citrus over clean sweat — floats into Steve’s nostrils. He feels a little dizzy, but resolutely carries on.
“Says the billionaire CEO,” Steve ripostes, his voice a little sharper than he meant it. But honestly, how dare this rich asshole lecture him on the class struggle. “You’ve never been so poor you had to stuff newspapers in your shoes, or make a dinner out of one turnip. You’ve never lived in a tenement. I’m trying to do something for the regular people of this country…”
“…by dressing up like a performing monkey and pretending to like these people?” Barnes sweeps his incredulous gaze around the room before returning it to Steve’s face. His eyes are a beautiful light blue-grey and they look perfect ringed with black, Christ Almighty. Steve tells his stomach to quit doing flips.

Summary:
What to do when the public isn’t too happy with the Avengers? Why, go on reality TV, of course! In the newest season of The Amazing Race, the Avengers team up with everyday heroes to race around the world for charity and good PR. Follow Steve and his partner—the sassy ER nurse Bucky from Indiana—as they eat, sing, dance, wrangle, and run through eight countries...all with the goal of winning the grand prize of one million dollars (and maybe find love in the process).
Excerpt:
“I have a good feeling about this. Should we do it?”
“I have a good feeling too, Bucky. I think we should.”
“We’ll take it!”
As Bucky and Steve strolled through the airport with their tickets in hand, Bucky felt on top of the world. With Steve at his side nothing could go wrong.
Okay, so a lot of things could go wrong.

Summary:
Steve was Steve. He was Captain America, son of Sarah Rogers, lover of the Brooklyn Dodgers, lover of the New York Americans, the heart of the Avengers, relatively normal-ish. Though those changed didn’t they? Dodgers play out in the West, the Americans were disbanded after the Rangers took over MSG, and as Steve got more in his head, the Avengers noticed how he wasn’t acting himself.
Bucky was Bucky. Hockey extraordinaire, captain of the New York Howling Commandos, lover of sports and his teammates, steady-headed relatively usually. Bucky just wants some peace, and to make it out of this new season in one piece, preferably with a few new records and trophies along the way. But what happens when a lucky rink mix-up brings the two together? Steve doesn’t want to admit he likes the smirk of the cute guy at the ice rink, but chaos and hockey ensue.
Excerpt:
“Well…” Bucky smiled, holding onto Steve’s arm as he awkwardly waved to the rookie that waved towards him. “This is Steve-”
“Yes, we are aware of who Captain America is,” Dum chirped, a few light touches of laughter around the room, nothing too bad, but Steve’s heart was currently residing in his stomach.
“Well, no, that’s Captain America, and this is Steve Rogers. My boyfriend.” Bucky was smiling warmly, waiting for the team's reaction. Steve was trying not to melt beside him. As if he couldn’t fall for Bucky any harder? He makes the distinction between himself and his job. God, swoon-worthy really.
“Huh, so blondes, eh?” Gabe was the first to speak, a cheeky smile on his face.
Bucky went red, “That’s what you ask first?” He sounded exasperated. Only his team would ask that first when he comes out by saying he’s dating a national treasure.
Gabe shrugged, “I’ll pretend it wasn’t obvious then, alright.”
“Haha so funny, anyone else?” Bucky offered, the entire group careful to respond. Steve was pretending that didn’t make him nervous as fuck.

Title: Not all relics are 100 year old supersoldiers
Posting: The week of August 14th

Rating: Explicit
Pairings: Captain America Steve Rogers/Modern Bucky Barnes
Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Alternate Universe, Action/Adventure, Captain America/Modern Bucky Barnes, Identity porn, Misunderstandings, Explicit sexual content, canon typical violence, on the run, strangers to lovers, communication is key, alternating POV, Bucky is a modern Indiana Jones, Natasha is a good bro, fights, minor injuries, alien artifact, falling in love, Top Steve Rogers, Bottom Bucky Barnes
Summary:
If asked, Bucky Barnes would call himself a modern day adventurer. He roamed the world collecting and cataloguing artifacts and relics for a living, his only help in the form of his enigmatic assistant, Natasha. Sure, it was a lonely life, but it was hard to meet people in his line of work, so he survived on random hook-ups to let off steam, not needing any more than that.
But when he meets the handsome stranger Steven in a Puerto Ricon bar, everything changes. How on earth could a man like Steven exist, and not only that, want Bucky?
One scorching hot encounter later, it all went to hell.
Because earlier that day, Bucky had discovered an alien artifact on his dig, unwittingly becoming a target to a rival collector. A rival who wanted Bucky's find and was not asking for it nicely. In fact, Bucky was suddenly running for his life, without even the chance to say goodbye to Steven. And just when Bucky had given up hope of survival, it's an Avenger who comes to his rescue. Captain America himself.
Yet, why was the hero acting funny and stand-offish with Bucky? Why wouldn’t he take off his mask, and why did he seem so damn familiar?
Cue a bunch of misunderstandings, alien technology that won’t quit and two stupid boys who can’t see what’s right in front of their noses.
Excerpt:
“Tony, I need you to come to my location now, or send a suit. Maybe both - actually, both.” Steve didn’t bother with a greeting once he’d passed the encryptions to Tony’s personal phone. He was just thankful he’d picked up.
“Why hello to you too, Captain Pina Colada. Lovely to hear from your tone that you’re relaxed and refreshed from your holiday and that you’re currently lounging around in a…gas station? What tour group did you sign up -”
“I don’t have time for your inane quips - come now!”
“Inane, I’ll have you know -”
“I mean it Tony.” Steve squeezed the ridge of his nose between a finger and thumb, knowing he was about to open himself up to a world of pain and ribbing. “I need your help.”
Tony was silent for all of a second, “be there in ten.”
Then he was gone, the smirk in his voice clear as day.
“Shit,” Steve said into the empty receiver, then hung his head in defeat. Tony would be insufferable, but it was for Bucky…for Nat. He swallowed away the bitterness in the back of his throat. Bucky wasn't for him.
“Err, excuse me? Mr America?”
Steve placed the phone back into its cradle and looked over his shoulder at the kid manning the register. He wouldn’t have been a day over sixteen, and Steve was ready to plaster a smile on to say thanks, when he realised the kid wasn't about to ask for an autograph. He was pointing outside towards the car instead.
Oh no...
Running from the back of the store, Steve burst into the parking lot to find six armoured vehicles and twenty masked Hydra operatives flanking the SUV. Of course they would have tracked it. Steve was losing his edge, he’d been compromised by Bucky.
Bucky.
The same Bucky who was stumbling from the back of the car, landing in the dirt on his hands and knees, head bowed, breathing heavily.

Tags/Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply, Shrunkyclunks, Post-Avengers (2012), Witch Bucky Barnes, Captain America Steve Rogers, POV Alternating, AU - Magic, Gardener Bucky, Angst with a Happy Ending, Friends to Lovers, Mutual Pining, Familiar Alpine, Steve’s (not so) stellar mental health, Gender Nonconforming Bucky Barnes, Chubby Bucky Barnes, (though neither are the focus of the fic), Space nerd Bucky, Museums, Stargazing
Summary:
When Steve wakes up in a body that isn’t his and in a city he does not know, he finds refuge in the role of Captain America and the endless grind of missions. He spends nearly every night on the rooftop of the tower, smoking useless cigarettes and wanting to go home.
Enter Bucky Barnes, a garden witch with a quiet life tasked with creating a rooftop garden for Stark Industries. As long as he ignores the yearning for something he can’t name, he’s content.
Sometimes, fate has a funny habit of drawing the right people together.
OR, a tale of two people who learn to love themselves and each other too.
Excerpt:
Bucky hasn’t done this type of magic in years, but it comes naturally. He lights candles and incense, placing them in a half-circle in front of him. He draws shapes into the floor with chalk and fills a glass bowl with water. Finally, he wishes.
He draws upon the Earth, the creatures that burrow deep under it, and all the life that it brings forth. He calls on the stars and planets, on galaxies like spirals and horseshoes, on distant asteroids and hurtling meteors. Hear me, he declares, protect what is dear to me. Protect what is mine.
Around him, the chalk glows, oscillating between the brown of earth, and the indigo and white of the farther universe. The water bursts into flames.
A few miles away, in a sterile bedroom inside a cold, steel Tower, a warm fire blazes in the hollow of Steve’s heart.

Summary:
Bucky Barnes returns home from his job with the US embassy in Russia with a bullet wound, a fresh case of PTSD, and ever increasing agoraphobic tendencies. For Steve Rogers it's love at first sight, but he has a secret that has the potential to tear the two of them apart. Between therapy appointments, sudden work trips, and a meddling sister, will they be able to make it work?
Excerpt:
“Alright, we’re getting close to wrapping-up time. Ready for homework?” Sam uncrosses his legs and sits forward in his armchair. The room is nice, nothing like the doctor’s office Bucky had expected when he arrived at their first in-person therapy session. There’s bookshelves lining the room filled with things ranging from philosophical texts like What We Owe to Each Other and A Treatise on Human Nature to books on military aircraft and airplane schematics to popular children’s novels. Bucky even noticed a copy of Ender’s Game on one shelf once, and he sometimes entertains the idea of bringing copies of the sequels for Sam to add to the collection.
Bucky refocuses on Sam’s face and takes a breath. “If I have to, sure.”
“Funny. Alright, this week I’d like you to find one place to take a thirty minute walk. Even if it’s a lap around your block, you need some sunshine, fresh air, and exposure to other people. It’s awesome that you’re spending more time with your sister and you stopped getting groceries delivered, but you gotta start easing yourself out of your apartment more.”
“Sam-”
“Nope. I know what you’re thinking, and it’s only a half hour outside between this session and next, my man. You can put your headphones on, leave your hood up. Mask up, maybe? No need to interact, just get a little sunlight. Visit a dog park, count the pizza joints on your street, I don’t care.”
Bucky squirms on the couch. “I… yeah, okay. Can I bring Becca with me?”
Sam smiles. “For sure. Just don’t let her walk you around Capitol Hill on her breaks. You might be ready to run across random protestors, but I still wouldn’t advise it.”
“No, definitely not. Thanks. I’ll figure something out.”
“Yeah you will, smart guy.”
“You’re still mean as hell though,” Bucky grumbles.
Sam laughs, shaking his head. “I bet you won’t be the only person to tell me that today, bro.” There’s a knock on the door, and Sam and Bucky both stand to leave. “Speak of the devil… seems like my lunch date’s early, as usual. Mind if I introduce you?”
“Oh, uh,” Not thinking about it long enough to let himself panic, he stutters out a quick, “Sure.”
Sam gets the door and… holy shit. On the other side stands America’s Next Top Male Model, all grade-A beef wrapped in a cable knit sweater. Baby blue eyes peek out from under the softest looking blond hair Bucky’s ever seen, and his mouth looks like it was shaped with a perfect pout in mind. “Good to see you, man. C’mon in, Bucky and I are almost done here.”
Sam’s friend (boyfriend? Sam said lunch date, didn’t he?) nods and looks over Sam’s shoulder to where Bucky is standing. He seems surprised for some reason. Surely he knew Bucky was there? “Uh, hi. I’m Steve, it’s nice to meet you.” Sam steps out of the way, and Steve barely seems to notice, still focused directly on Bucky’s face.
“Yeah, same to you. Um, I’ll get out of your hair, Sam. See you next week.”
“Take care, Bucky.” Sam gives him a friendly pat on the back on his way to the door. They both pretend not to see the flinch.
Steve stands right there in the middle of the doorway until Bucky is right in front of him. “Um…”
“Oh, uh- sorry.” Steve blinks a few times, shakes his head as if to clear it, and steps back into the hall, turning to let him get by. Bucky nods to him and heads out, feeling that gaze on his back nearly all the way to the elevator, but when he steps in and turns to select the ground floor button, the hallway is empty again, and Bucky finds himself strangely disappointed as the elevator doors close, leaving him alone once again with his thoughts. Time to go home.

Title: The End of the Road

Summary:
After going AWOL and leaving SHIELD under cover of darkness, Steve Rogers has been on the run for the last year. He’s been to every corner of the United States, never staying for more than a couple of days to keep himself off SHIELD’s radar.
In Homer, Alaska, he meets a shopkeeper named Bucky. Sparks fly between them from the start, and every ounce of self-preservation that Steve has learned in the past year is thrown out the window as he is taken by the desire to learn more about Bucky.
Their romance blooms quickly, but they are both keeping a piece of themselves hidden. Bucky has a daughter that he’s fiercely protective of, and Steve can’t bring himself to tell Bucky his true identity while SHIELD is still after him.
When SHIELD eventually comes knocking, Steve and Bucky find out that their lives are far more intertwined than they could have possibly known.
Excerpt:
“You must know all the go-to spots around the town then, huh?” Steve leans forward, resting his forearms on the tabletop as he makes himself comfortable. It’s been so long since Steve’s allowed himself the time to just talk to somebody — it’s nice.
Bucky tilts his head back with a laugh, mirroring Steve’s position from across the counter. “Go-to spots?” he repeats with another laugh, his nose crinkling; the movement causes Steve’s eyes to catch on the small hoop nestled snugly into his nostril. “Where d’you think you are, pal? New York? Anywhere you could wanna go around here is within spitting distance of the pier.”
“No,” Steve says with a shake of his head, his body still bowed down close, “it’s definitely not New York.”
