《Bucky Barnes Imagines》Reckless (Bucky x Reader)
Advertisement
Prompt - Just some fun with tropes: features confessing your love for your best friend during a fight, friends to lovers, and accidentally falling asleep then waking up together.
Notes - Full disclosure, I lifted the fight almost word for word from a Delena moment in TVD cause it fit SO WELL.
-------------------------------
"Bucky! What the hell were you thinking?" You were shouting. Somewhere in the back of your mind you knew you shouldn't be, given the situation, but your emotions were running wild. Yes, the team had completed the mission but Bucky had taken a bad hit and for some reason you were furious with him.
Bucky grimaced as Bruce finished patching him up, leaving the two of you alone in the med bay. You were pacing back and forth in the small space, silently fuming.
Bucky cleared his throat. "Look, I'm sorry I had to leave you out of the plan."
"There shouldn't have been a plan, Buck. It was reckless and stupid. You shouldn't have ended up in this situation!"
"Do you think I like going behind your back, doll? I don't. But if I hadn't asked Steve for help you would have tried to be the hero and it would be you on this table instead of me."
You scoffed, whipping around to face him. "Well I'm sorry for trying to keep you alive! Clearly Steve doesn't give a crap about that."
"Now you're mad at me for going to Steve?"
"No, I'm mad at you because I love you!"
You instantly froze, eyes wide as you realized what you just blurted out. Bucky opened his mouth to say something but before he could you fled, embarrassed and terrified of what you had just done, admitting your innermost feelings to the person you considered to be your best friend. What were you going to do now?

Hours later you couldn't avoid Bucky any longer. You were worried about his recovery and honestly, you missed him. Any other Friday night and you and he would have already been two hours into a Netflix binge and halfway through a box of pizza.
Knocking softly on his door you heard him call out for you to enter. Bucky was propped up against his headboard, shirtless, which under normal circumstances would have sent your heart aflutter. Now however all you could see were his injuries on display, his ribs were bandaged and dark purple bruises were scattered all over his chest. "Oh Bucky... " You blinked back the tears as you moved to sit next to him.
"It's not as bad as it looks, doll." Bucky's crooked smile warmed your heart. "I'll be fine, promise."
"You shouldn't be in this position at all Buck." You held up a hand as he started to protest. "Nope, I did not come here to have that argument again. I came to to hang out with you. Cause that's what we do." You settled in next to him, grabbing the remote and flipping through the choices.
"So..." Bucky seemed hesitant, "are we just not gonna talk about earlier or...?"
You sighed, gathering your resolve. "Can we just forget it ever happened? I was upset and it just came out and I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable so let's just drop it, okay?" You bit your lip, hoping that he'd just go with it.
You could feel him looking at you but after a moment of silence he relaxed, wrapping his metal arm around you and pulling you close. "So, what do you feel like watching tonight? I'm in a sci-fi mood.."
"When aren't you in a sci-fi mood," you said with a smile as you scrolled for awhile, finally settling on The Martian. "Oh you'll love this one... action, survival, and loads of science."

As much as you loved the movie and the company, the day's events quickly caught up with both of you and before long you were sound asleep in Bucky's arms.
-------------------------------
Warmth. How was your pillow so warm? And why was it.. moving? Reaching out tentatively you felt something hard yet soft, rising and falling beneath your fingertips. Cracking one eye open and then the other you could just make out Bucky's profile in the dim predawn light. You realized you were completely pressed against him, your arm slung across his torso, your legs tangled together, your head resting just above his heart.
You wanted nothing more than to freeze this moment in time. To hold him close and pretend he was yours for just a little while longer. Unable to help yourself you placed a small kiss on his chest just as it rumbled to life.
"I don't wanna forget it, doll." His voice was rough and low as he wrapped his arms tighter around you. "D'ya know how long I've been waiting for you to say something? Anything?"
Your breath caught in your throat. Was this really happening? "W-what are you saying...? That you..?"
He chuckled, kissing the top of your head. "I'd be an even bigger idiot than you already think I am if I didn't have feelings for you. Why do you think I talked Steve into going through with that ridiculous plan yesterday? Couldn't let the woman I love get hurt now could I?"
"But you, you never said... why have you never said anything?"
"I'm guessing for all the same reasons you never did: our friendship was too important, things were fine the way they were, why would someone like you ever truly fall for someone like me...." There was a hint of self-doubt in his voice at the end, a feeling you couldn't deny that you'd had far too often.
Raising up to look at him you stared into his eyes, the cool blue shining up at you. You bit your lip, reaching up to stroke your thumb across the stubble on his cheek. "You better not be messin' with me, Barnes."
Tilting toward you till your noses brushed together, he licked his lips, "Wouldn't dream of it, doll." And then there he was, soft lips pressed gently against yours, both of you frozen for a moment before melting into each other, fitting together perfectly as if you'd done it a thousand times. His tongue darted out, teasing you. You welcomed it, eagerly deepening the kiss, your hand moving into his hair, tugging gently. With a groan and a growl he rolled you both over, continuing to kiss you like his life depended on it. It was several moments before you slowed and broke away, breathing heavily and staring into each other's eyes.
"Damn," you breathed out.
"Yeah," he replied with a grin.
"Still sure about this...? It's not too late to back out..." You bit the inside of your cheek, trying not to laugh.
"Hell yeah, just try and stop me," he murmured before diving in to attack your neck with kisses, causing you to shriek and then moan and then much, much more.

War of Divinities
Heaven is at war!... and the Gods are losing. In a desperate bid to fend off the demons hordes, the Gods, in their infinite wisdom have conscripted mortals to fight. Joe, a 23 year old fresh college graduate had barely finished his shift at the local gas station when the Heavens arrived to conscript him and millions of others to the Empyrean Tower. A place where conscripts are sent to hone their skills in preparations for the darker horrors that await them. Brought to the Halls of Beginnings with only a towel to protect his dignity, Joe must get strong enough to climb the tower or die trying. ***** Authors note ***** WoD is my first attempt at writing. It's a little story I've been mulling over for the better part of six months. It brings together elements of litrpg and progression fantasy with a dash of xianxia. If you enjoy a story where the MC must overcome challenges to become strong then you've come to the right place.
8 63Re:volutionist
I died and then received an offer to be reincarnated in a Fantasy World.The problem is - I'm not exactly gonna be a ""hero"" of that world, this wasn't really an offer to begin with, and that strange shapeless black entity who gave me that ""offer"" wasn't really trustworthy... or sane. Now I am alone in the world that wants me dead. The world I am supposed to ruin as a part of a game I don't understand. I don't even know who plays that game... but it looks like it's a game in which everyone - from pawns to players - is trying to cheat.**********Mature Content Warning - foul language, gore (in the future), potential sex scenes (in the future).

8 70Truthful Transmigration
Schedule: 1 Chapter each of Tuesday/Friday John Miller was a fairly normal young man, working hard to support a family that had run into many financial difficulties. Unfortunately, his unexpected death ends his difficult but mundane life. He is quite surprised to find himself waking up alive… but not himself. Fortkran Tenebach is… or was… the young master of a cultivation clan in another world. John barely even knows anything about cultivation- even in the theory of something vaguely like it- but he has to make his way with the memories of his new body. His new family isn’t as close as his old one was… but he can’t help but want to be honest with them. He is quite certain that they notice his sudden change in personality among other things, and confesses what happened in a move that ultimately he expects to be fatal. Quite surprisingly, his family instead breathes a collective sigh of relief that the old Fortkran is dead. This leaves John to take over his duties… including cultivation, though he has to start from the beginning and isn’t sure he won’t make some massive mistake.
