Bucky'd been fidgety throughout the debriefing with Fury, even if he hadn't moved a muscle as he listened to the mission -- another HYDRA target, smaller, on a remote island in the Pacific. Not the usual setup, which made him uneasy from the get-go. But there was something else, something nagging at him, something in Fury's tone that told him there was more to this mission than he was willing to divulge. It wasn't a surprise. Fury might not be HYDRA, but in some ways his methods were so similar that it felt like being back there anyway. He definitely believed in the need to know principle, and obviously he didn't feel like they needed to know whatever it was he was holding back. His gaze darted to Steve, wondering if he'd picked up on it, too.

But if Steve had, his expression didn't betray his thoughts.

He pressed his lips together as they were dismissed, Fury addressing him as the others agents involved in the mission filtered out of the room. "Barnes. Hang back a minute."

And there it was, he thought, meeting Steve's eyes only briefly before lingering as Fury requested. One the door was shut again, the other man turned to study him.

"You have a different mission while they're disabling all of HYDRA's operating systems and containing the operatives."

Bucky studied him just as intently, his voice flat when he responded. "Who'm I eliminating?"

If Fury was surprised by his response, he gave nothing away. "Your target is Katya Belyakov."

"Who is she?" His voice was wary.

"You sure you wanna know the details, Barnes?" he asked, arching an eyebrow.

"If you're asking me to murder someone, yes," Bucky said, jaw tightening.

Fury regarded him for a long moment. "Essentially, she's the of the most dangerous people in the galaxy. Mind control abilities that she's utilized to force others to commit her dirty work. She's likely being accompanied by a former SHIELD operative who turned out to be moonlighting for HYDRA, Grant Ward. I'd prefer him to remain alive. He's got a lot to answer for."

Every muscle in Bucky's body tensed at the information about Belyakov, but also the name Grant Ward, his stomach turning in recognition.

"Ah. See you're familiar with him then."

"Unfortunately," Bucky responded stiffly, struggling to maintain his composure. "I'm assuming this isn't an optional mission." There was a hint of bitterness in his voice.

"You knew when you signed the dotted line that there's no such thing here, Barnes. Is there a problem? Or do I need to go over the fine print of your contract to refresh your memory?"

Fuck you, he thought. "No, Sir. Am I free to go?"

"You're dismissed."

--

An hour later, he was suited up in his tac gear, breathing steady and even despite the wild pounding of his heart as he boarded the quinjet with a team he didn't know or trust, and the only person on the earth he truly did.

Steve shivered at the warm breath on his stomach, closing his eyes and swaying a moment.

He had the sense that Bucky was teasing him, even though his voice was utterly deadpan and serious, but he couldn’t tell. He swallowed again and spoke, his voice a little rough. “Oh,” he said. “Sorry. I didn’t mean to assume."

[endsinafight]

Bucky couldn't quite repress the smirk that tugged his lips upward. "Why? Interested?" he murmured against his ear before turning to grab the sweatpants from the duffel bag.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

“Bucky,” Steve said, voice low in his register. “I mean—yeah. If that’s okay? I mean, I’m not asking for it right now! I have no expectations. But it is something I might one day want? I don’t know. What do you want from me here?”

He was almost babbling, unaccountably nervous. They’d admitted their love, done a lot of touching—but it had stayed resolutely PG. Maybe even more family friendly than that—they hadn’t even kissed. He didn’t know what boundaries Bucky had, only that he had the very strong sense that Bucky had them.

[endsinafight]

He felt something in his gut tighten at that low register of Steve's voice and his gaze flickered to his face once more, wondering if he'd crossed a line that he shouldn't have. A line that neither of them was ready for, because Steve was right. They hadn't even kissed yet. "I think I used to be better at this," he said after a moment, reaching out and resting a hand on Steve's hip.

"Most of it's still kinda...foggy, at best. This part of things. I feel like I used to be better at it." Truthfully he was pretty sure he used to be better at a lot of things than he was these days. He drew in a breath. "It was a shitty attempt at flirting, I guess."

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve huffed a laugh and slowly moved into Bucky’s space, resting his good hand on Bucky’s hip. He was still just in his boxers, but it was easier now that he could tell Bucky needed a little reassurance.

“It was a fantastic attempt at flirting,” Steve said, his voice still low and a little rough. He leaned in just a little to kiss the top of Bucky’s head. “You got me really worked up. If this is you shitty at it, I’m not sure I could survive you excellent at it. I was just a little confused because I’ve been following your lead on what we do and that was a big jump.”

[endsinafight]

Bucky closed his eyes when Steve pressed a kiss to his head, dragging his teeth over his lower lip. It wasn't like Steve was wrong. The most they'd really done was hold hands occasionally, and cuddle together, mostly at night when they went to bed. "Yeah," he agreed, his own voice still deeper than usual, his heart beating quickly in his chest.

Truth be told, he didn't have an explanation for Steve about his sudden behavior. It had just felt right in the moment, to tease him and flirt. He was pretty sure teasing Steve had been a staple in their relationship from Before.

"I guess it was."

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve rubbed his hip gently, soothing. Not entirely wanting to leave the warmth of their touches and the almost seductive atmosphere that Bucky had created.

“If you want to make that jump, I’m game. You say jump, I say how high on this. But for me? I want everything. As long as we’re on the same page. I don’t mean to discourage you.”

Steve couldn’t help the roughness in his voice, but he felt shy, too. He sometimes overwhelmed himself with how much he wanted Bucky.

[endsinafight]

Bucky's gaze darted to his eyes, searching them for any hesitation or uncertainty, but he found none. His shoulders relaxed as he realized Steve was being honest with him and he shifted closer, slowly sliding his arms around him in a hug, resting his chin on Steve's shoulder. "Probably oughta get you home before we decide to go there," he responded, trailing his flesh fingers down Steve's spine lightly.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve, at this point, was half-hard in his boxers. He was so fixated on Bucky that just the word “blowjob” in his mouth was probably enough for that, but these sweet, intimate touches made it an inevitability. It was hard to feel too awkward about it, though, when Bucky was running his hand down Steve’s bare back, holding him close.

Steve dug in his fingers into Bucky’s hip and then let them dip just under the waistband of his tac pants, rubbing the skin he found there.

“Yeah,” Steve said. “Doesn’t have the ambiance, does it.”

[endsinafight]

It was difficult not to notice the fact that Steve was half erect. They were pressed together in a tight embrace. He drew in a slow breath when he felt Steve's fingers dip into his own pants, though they didn't go far at all, just brushing over his bare skin.

"Far from it," he said roughly, swallowing hard.

Bucky reluctantly pulled back, lifting his sweatpants off the bed and kneeling down in front of him once more, skin feeling too warm all over. "Here." He held them the same way he had the boxers, so Steve could step into them easily.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

And now Bucky was back on his knees in front of him, looking up with a intense facial expression and those gorgeous blue eyes. Steve rubbed his foreheads for a moment, trying to settle himself down.

He stepped into the pants, carefully. Instead of holding Bucky’s shoulder, he ever so gently dug his fingers into Bucky’s hair, scratching his scalp.

“The things you do to me, Buck.”

[endsinafight]

For a moment, Bucky just knelt in front of him, staring up at the only person he'd ever wanted to be on his knees for and there was a rush of emotions he couldn't begin to identify as anything other than intense. And when Steve's fingers dug into his hair like that, a quiet, barely audible moan escaped him.

"Steve," he groaned, eyes dilating as he looked up at him.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve genuinely felt a little lightheaded at that reaction—the groan, so quiet, Bucky’s eyes visibly dilating, the way he said Steve’s name. It made Steve ever so slightly daring. He took a handful of Bucky’s hair—not to grab or pull, but to let the soft strands run through his fingers, giving just the barest tug.

“Yeah?” Steve asked, so low. “You like this, sweetheart?”

[endsinafight]

His entire body shuddered at the quiet term of endearment and the gentle tug to his hair and for a moment it felt like he couldn't breathe. "Yes, Sir," he admitted, voice strained, the word sir slipping out far too easily.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

The first reaction Steve had was his gut going tight and hot, an instantaneous liquid burst right over his groin. Then, immediate following that, he went cold.

He let go of Bucky’s hair. Not running away, not trying to make a huge deal of it, but sure that this was something he couldn’t let go unremarked on. Bucky was clearly into it—but he hadn’t expected a title. And with Bucky’s backstory, there was something nauseating about the unexpected Sir.

“Why’d you call me that, sweetheart?” he asked, voice gentle, no longer touching him. He hoped the answer was straightforward, that Bucky wanted to—he’ll see.

[endsinafight]

He blinked several times as Steve's hand left his hair and he almost whimpered at the loss of his touch. His eyebrows furrowed at the question, eyes reflecting his confusion. "Aren't you my captain?" His tone was light, but his voice was more strained than usual. He let his hands rest on his thighs as he sat back on his heels.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve went a little queasier.

“I’m just Steve, honey. When we’re doing this. I don’t outrank you,” he said, his voice still gentle.

[endsinafight]

"I know you're Steve." He frowned, not sure what to think about his objection to being called 'Sir.' He hadn't really meant to say it, it had just come out before he could stop it. It had felt right to him even if now he thought it was a little strange. Obviously Steve thought it was strange, too. "I was just in the moment, I guess. Sorry," he muttered.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve hated that muttered little apology. He took a step right back up to Bucky, going back to stroking his hair—not quite tugging, not yet, but standing close enough that Bucky’s cheek was only inches away from his sweatpants.

“Hey, no. No need to apologize. I just wanted to ask why, sweetheart. If it was because you were feeling good, because you were in the moment—that’s good. I like that. I like that you were in the moment, god, you’re beautiful.”

And maybe later, when Bucky is less vulnerable, Steve can ask him more about it.

[endsinafight]

Confusion flickered through him when Steve moved closer and started stroking his hair again. It felt like he'd done something wrong, but Steve was rewarding him for it and he didn't know what to think. He hesitantly rested his cheek against Steve's thigh, letting his eyes close momentarily at the skin to skin contact, letting it soothe him in a way nothing else really could.

He knew the situation was weird, but he couldn't really explain his own reactions. He startled away when there was a knock on the door, and Bucky quickly tugged Steve's sweatpants up and around his waist, rising to his feet in one smooth movement before the door opened.

"All right, Captain Rogers. I've got your discharge paperwork all ready to be signed." The nurse from the day before stepped into the room, holding a clipboard and pausing when she saw his state of undress. Her face grew warm, but she looked back at the clipboard. "Dr. Stevenson would like to see you again on Friday to see how your hand is healing and see if physical therapy is good option for you."

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve felt a strange sort of awe, when Bucky rested his face against Steve’s thigh. He was so sweet and gentle, so obviously soothed by the position. It was a little like a mountain lion emerged from the woods and crawled in his lap to start purring.

It was a good thing Bucky was on top of things, because Steve was too wrapped up in what was happening between them to even notice the knock. Steve gaped like a fish out of water at the nurse for a long moment, his own cheeks warming, before he finally replied.

“Yes,” he said, vaguely. He fumbled the shirt over his shoulders, hissing a little at how he put pressure on the cast to get it through the sleeve. “I can do that. Just tell me the time. We have to go now, though. It’s important.”

Steve tried to project as much American Hero energy as he could and as little sense of very recently having his boyfriend on his knees as he could manage.

[endsinafight]

Bucky felt a little dazed by the entire thing, but he paid attention to the nurse's request, nodding his own agreement, and quickly turning to Steve when he heard that hiss of pain. He reached out, stilling his movements once he had the sleeves on. He pressed his lips together, buttoning each of the buttons with nimble fingers, lips quirking up at what he definitely recognized as Steve's Captain America tone.

"Please do be careful. You're still seriously injured," she said with a frown.

"I'll make sure he doesn't overdo it," Bucky told her before Steve had a chance to respond.

She eyed his hand and then her clipboard and pen. "Are you able to sign for yourself? You could have Mr. Barnes sign for you, if that's easier."

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Steve could probably sign for himself. He was basically ambidextrous. Still, he liked the idea of Bucky being able to sign for him.

Smiling at Bucky, a little crooked, he said, “Bucky can do it. He’s gonna take good care of me.”

Steve probably ended up putting more innuendo into that than he fully intended, but he was still pretty overwhelmed by being dressed by Bucky, some of the same shivers of pleasure in his careful buttoning of Steve’s shirt.

[endsinafight]

Bucky met his eyes, his own darkening just a little at the innuendo that he certainly hadn't expected in front of a stranger. Still, there was a hint of amusement on his mouth as he took the clipboard from the nurse and signed his name on the necessary forms. "I'll keep him outta trouble," he told her.

She gave them each a knowing look as she took the clipboard back. "Good luck," she said cheekily as she ducked out of the room again.

[littleguyfrombrooklyn]

Once they were done, Steve fussed with his phone long enough to call an uber.

"C'mon," he said, leaving the room and giving Bucky a cue to follow by tugging on his shirt. Steve didn't talk, not in front of these people (a lot of whom who were unsubtly taking cell-phone pics, even though it was ass-o-clock in the morning at a hospital. People had no shame.) He did keep casting long, lingering looks at Bucky, considering.

He was thinking about a lot of things--playing over that moment of "sir" in his mind was one of them, but it wasn't the only one. It was twisted up with how beautiful Bucky had been, resting his head on Steve's thigh.

When the uber arrived, Steve opened the car door for Bucky, before circling around the other side to get in himself.
