Summary
Steve’s grip tightens on his arm, bracing for the fragile moment to break, but what Bucky says is, “Did you mean it?” with his chin tucked to his chest. “You still mine tonight?”
Steve’s startled laugh bounces off the cobblestones. He knows from Bucky’s glower, the color high on his cheeks, that whatever game he’s playing at, Steve isn’t following the rules.
“I’m sorry!” he says, tugging Bucky back to his body. Quieter, with their faces so close, “I’m sorry. But Jesus Christ, Buck, that was a stupid question.”

Summary
In 1918, Bucky is forced to flee New York with his family. In 1923, he returns as a prize fighter, determined to send money to his sisters and stay far away from the gang violence that destroyed their home.
And then Steve Rogers shows up.
These days, Bucky’s childhood pal isn’t facing down neighborhood bullies. He’s taking on every factory owner in the Garment District—and every gangster they hire to intimidate union members.
By joining the fray as Steve’s bodyguard, Bucky can finally stand up to the mobsters who took so much from him. And if that means spending a whole lot of time by Steve’s side…well, that’s just an added bonus.

Summary
Steve grabs Bucky's wrist and tugs him into the bathroom, heart galloping with bone-deep animal fear and something else, too. The part of him that comes alive with this, with Bucky’s face in his hands and his back pinned against the door, with Steve’s blood singing, I miss you all the time, I want you all the time.

Summary
“If you’re gonna stand there admiring your handiwork,” Steve says to the construction paper he’s laying over the hardwood floor, “the least you could do is pitch in.”
Bucky doesn’t move from the shadows of the window frame. But Steve can see in the dark, too. Can see his suppressed smile tick, then reset.
There’s a soft whir as he points at the kitchen island, where the granite countertop is cracked down the middle. Then a Steve-sized hole in the living room drywall.
“That was all you,” he says, before picking up a drop cloth off the floor and covering Steve’s couch.

Summary
“Bucky,” Steve groans. “This isn’t the kind of talk I meant.”
Bucky scoots in closer on the mattress so he can tangle their legs together.
“What kind of talk should we be having?”
“You know.” Steve’s grave blue eyes hold his. “You know what kind I mean.”

Steve, Bucky, and the same choice made again and again (and again).

Summary
'Tell you what,' Bucky said, his arm coming out to push Steve gently further into the sidewalk as a car trundled past, spraying some of the icy slush up into the air. 'We'll head in again next week, alright? And you'll dance if I have to dance with you myself.'
Steve laughed at that, a short huff of humor followed by a couple of light coughs. He swiped at his forehead, flattening his part. 'That'll be a sight,' he said, but honestly thought that if there were anyone he'd like to dance with, it'd be Bucky.
Steve and Bucky, rooftops and dancing, crossdressing and porn, and little else.Series

Summary
“What do you wanna talk about? How I’m gonna have to marry some girl with perfect ringlets and you’re gonna marry some girl who’s smarter than both of us combined, and you’ll be right to? What is there to talk about? Quit being a dumbass and just go to sleep.”
He says it so matter of fact. He says it like none of it bothers him. Steve sighs.
“Nobody is gonna marry me,” Steve says softly. He lays back down and goes to sleep.
In the morning, Bucky doesn’t mention it and neither does Steve. They go back to not talking about it. Maybe they never will.Or, the one where it's 1939 and sometimes Steve thinks that having is worse than wanting.

Summary
Bucky said, “A person doesn’t expect to be talking about things like this with you, Steve. Well, you know I’m queer, you know I go with guys sometimes—and when I go with a guy I like for him to tell me what to do. Do you know what I mean? It excites me.”
“I get the picture,” Steve said. He could already feel himself getting flustered—not because of the queer part, but because he never thought about that kind of thing at all.
“I’m just checking,” Bucky said. “The point is, I shouldn’t have been thinking about you that way. I apologize.”
“What?” Steve said.
