fandom that is not hers!! And to awesome @theycallmebecca for checking it worked!
—————————————-
The first time it happens, it is just a drunken hookup
The party at Avengers Tower is star-spangled,
loud, and pulsing fun; rare vodka fueled and graced by the hottest DJ in New
York. You’ve left your uniform and new medal
of valour in the hospitality suite Miss Potts has thoughtfully laid on. Donned a slinky black cocktail dress and four-inch
heels and walked into the space on Mr Stark’s arm, blushing at his gushing praise.
Thank heaven this evening event is more
relaxed than the White House’s lavish ballroom.
Your knees had knocked so loud
you were sure that the President had heard.
Visibility is not your thing. Or
speeches. But your few heartfelt words
had tumbled out, applauded by brass and dough-faced senators and Bucky had
stood, smiling, looking oh so perfectly edible in a charcoal suit. He’d winked at you, a shining in his eyes that
was almost as bright as in the moment your marksmanship had saved his life.
Perhaps you hadn’t imagined his yearning
after all.
