《Distraction》You lied to me.
Advertisement
Bucky enters the restaurant and sits at the bar. He orders a Johnnie Walker straight and looks around until he spots you. You were chatting away with Howard as he was trying to impress you. Bucky could tell because he was using the same cliché moves he did. Running his hand through his hair, giving Daisy the narrowed eyes and a lick of his lips as he watches her. The way he nods to everything she said, as if he was paying complete attention to her. Which he wasn't. Bucky knew his thoughts were probably lying elsewhere. Which they was.
After finishing your meals Howard orders yet another bottle of champagne.
"If I drink anymore I won't be able to stand!" You laugh pushing him gently in the chest from across the table. You were clearly tipsy from the copious amounts you had already consumed. Your voice had gotten louder and you relaxed more into the conversation. Howard was actually a decent man, arrogance aside he was charming, funny, his humour was pretty dark but you liked that. He made an answer for everything, just like you.
Once Howard topped your glass up with champagne he excused himself and headed to the men's room. You took a deep breath and smiled. You were starting to enjoy yourself. You could see yourself becoming friends with Howard, you knew you had to tell him that you had no interest in being romantically involved though.
As you begin to sip on the champagne Bucky sits in Howard's seat opposite you. When you see his face you spit out the champagne and it sprays all over his t-shirt.
"Daisy what the..."
"Don't Daisy me Buck! What're you doing here?" You we're trying to act annoyed but you started to laugh.
"You're drunk" Bucky scoffs. As much as he liked seeing you let loose for once, he didn't want it to be with Howard, he didn't like that he had already gotten you this way on the first date, Bucky immediately questioned his intentions.
"Look Daisy, we have to go before he gets back" Bucky tries to talk slowly but surely to Daisy in hopes she can understand him.

"Where? Why, I'm..." your voice started to slur.
"God dammit. Daisy look you're making this really difficult.."
"If you're about to confess your love for me Bucky I'm flattered but I'm not interested"
"Jesus fucking Christ Daisy I'm not the one trying to Confess my love here!" Bucky shouts in annoyance. Becoming impatient and running out of time. Bucky stands up, pulling you out of your chair and dragging you out of the restaurant.
You could barely walk in your heels sober let alone with alcohol in your system.
"Bucky slow down..." you wobbled as you struggled to keep one foot infront of the other.
Bucky turns back, his grip still on your arm. You could barely keep yourself up.
"Daisy seriously!" Bucky lifts you up and throws you over his shoulder. Everyone in the restaurant watching you both. But Bucky didn't care. You squealed and laughed while hitting Bucky on the back
"Bucky put me down!!" You yelled.
As you got outside of the restaurant the fresh air hit you like a slap to the face. You felt immediately nauseous and your face drained it's colour.
"Don't even think about being sick Daisy" Bucky shakes his head.
"I never should have gone on that date Buck" You begin to cry. Bucky rolls his eyes before opening his arms. You pull yourself into him and he strokes your hair.
"I was going to do it Buck..." You whisper out still slurring your words.
"Do why Daisy?" Bucky asks gently. He knew the effects of alcohol were taking over your system, he knew because you would never emotionally open up to him. That was what you and Steve did. Bucky was always the annoying one in the way, but here in this moment, he wanted you to pour out whatever was on your mind. Bucky knew you needed a clear head, and it also gave Steve chance to think of what he was going to say.
"I was going to Steve. Going to tell him how I feel. But I was too late..by time I realised Howard was already at my house and I..."

Bucky realises what you were going to say and he pulls you away from him. Looking deep into your eyes with nothing but joy.
"Daisy, what were you going to tell Steve?!" Bucky asks excitedly and anxiously all at the same time.
"That I love him! Obviously!" You push his hands away and slouch a little. Bucky grabs you instantly before you can topple over. You had lost all balance you had.
"Daisy...that's what I'm doing here. Steve's in the truck. He came to get you..." Bucky couldn't help but blurt it out. He had too. You were intoxicated and he didn't know how else to get through to you.
Once them words left Bucky's lips you immediately shot your head up. As if the words sobered you up themselves.
"W-what?!"
"Yeah he's just around the..."
"Don't fucking joke with me Bucky!" You punch him In the chest.
"Fuck sake Daisy would you just...AGH why are you so infuriating!"
Bucky grabs your hand and drags you to the back of the restaurant where the car park is.
"See he's right over..."
Bucky stops what he's saying and you both let out a small gasp.
You see Steve outside Bucky's truck. Bucky was right about that. You also saw Steve's mouth suctioned to no one other than Peggy Carter. She had a grip on his shirt and they were kissing sloppily.
"Steve what the fuck!" Bucky roars. Clearly angry.
Steve and Peggy jump and Steve looks to see you next to Bucky. Tears had already started to pool around your eyes and your hand was over your mouth in shock. You turned around and was instantly sick everywhere. You didn't know if it was from the alcohol or the heartbreak or both.
Peggy wipes her lips and leans into him, whispering something to his ear before strutting over to you and Bucky. Bucky was now rubbing your back. But he didn't take his eyes off Steve. Not once.
Peggy nudges past you and Bucky before giving Steve one more wink and heading into the restaurant.
Steve stands there for a moment in complete and utter shock. Once he realises what just happened he runs over to you and Bucky and begins to ramble.
"That's not what it looked like..I swear I was just..."
"Don't" Bucky demands. His voice was cold and harsh. After everything Bucky had done for him tonight. This is how he betrayed you, how he betrayed Daisy.
Daisy takes deep breaths and composes herself. Standing herself back up straight before dropping her head down to the floor. You didn't want to look at him.
"Daisy I..." Steve begins but you shake your head.
"You lied to me Bucky..." you whimper out.
"No, no I didn't Daisy. I promise I didn't lie to you.. everything I told you was true" Bucky panics. Cupping your face and lifting it gently. You were heartbroken.
"Daisy please let me.." Steve tries to talk to you once more.
"What's going on here?" Howard's voice erupts from behind and you jump once again.
You look at Bucky and shake your head. You didn't make any eye contact with Steve. You couldn't bare it.
You stumble over to Howard and he holds your waist firmly.
"Can you take me home, please? I'm sorry. I don't feel so good..."
Howard looks at Bucky whose fists were clenched with nothing but frustration and anger.
Steve was only looking at you.
"Daisy I can take you home..." Bucky calls out.
You stick your middle finger up at him.
"You lied to me" You shout out once again.
Howard leads you away and you grip onto him for balance.
Bucky turns back to face Steve and Steve gulps. Knowing just how enraged Bucky now was.
"Bucky I..."
"Save it Steve. Get in the fucking car if you want a lift home but don't even think about muttering one word out to me"
Steve sighs and nods.
They drive home in complete silence.
