April 2019 - Bucky's POV
When I was growing up I caught the eyes of a lot of girls. I dated and messed around with a few of them but no matter the circumstance, my mind would always go back to Riley. I tried my best not to fall for my best friend but she was everything I wanted. Beautiful, smart, funny, and kind. Seeing her smile was one of the things I always looked forward to when I would wake up in the morning. And that's still a fact to this day. I can't tell you the exact moment I fell in love with Riley but if it's possible to feel that way about someone at 8 years old then that's when it happened. I got jealous when I saw Steve talking to the pretty girl in the baby blue dress who had a ribbon in her hair. But getting punched in the arm for stealing her cookies and arguing with her about who was Steve's best friend is what pulled me in. Throughout the years, there was always something between Riley and I but neither one of us would say it out loud. Senior year of high school I decided to finally get my head out of my ass and make things official. And now here I am, married to my girl and trying to have a baby. Years were taken from us and I'm going to make damn sure nothing happens to pull us apart again.
That's why leaving Riley today was awful. I knew how nervous she was but I kept promising her that I would come back and I made sure to show my wife just how much I loved her last night and this morning. And when it was time for me to leave, she clung to me like a damn koala bear. No matter what I did, she wouldn't let go. I had to walk through the compound and outside to the quinjet with her attached to me. I eventually had to give Vision a look that said "please help." He managed to pull her off and held her under her arms at eye level with me. She looked so fucking adorable with how small she was and the pout on her face. It made it that much harder to leave but I gave her one last promise that I'd see her soon before I got on the quinjet.
We still had 11 hours left of our flight and I was ready to bang my head against the wall. Sam and Steve were at the front of the quinjet and Natasha was laying on the bench across from me with headphones in taking a nap. I wanted to see my girl's beautiful face so I pulled out my phone to FaceTime her.
"Hey B."
I chuckled when I heard Wanda and Tony say the same thing to mock Riley.
"Hey sweet girl. What are you guys doing?"
"We're watching Beetlejuice."
"You're obsessed with that movie."
Riley grinned and nodded her head. "What about you? How's the flight?"
"It's fine. I miss you so I wanted to talk for a little bit."
I heard a few whispers then the phone moved away from her face and it looked like she was walking. The only thing I could see was her stomach. I smiled to myself and decided to mess with her.
"If you're not going to show me your face, at least show your tits or ass."
Steve and Sam laughed loudly from the front of the quinjet. Riley yelled my name and I shrugged in response.
