It's Not That Simple

Bucky Barnes

It was the night of yet another one of Tony Stark's famous parties. There was loud music, tons of people, flashing lights and the smell of alcohol ran thick in the air. Steve sat awkwardly at the bar next to Bucky, Tony had insisted that all of the Avengers attend his party, including Bucky. Of course, even though you weren't an Avenger, you were invited to go as well. Not only because the Avengers were like family to you but because Tony loved the way you partied.

You loved the dancing, the craziness, the drinks and lights, it was all what made you happy. Not to mention the men, that was a huge part as to why you went to parties. Although you liked falling asleep next to someone, you would never waste anytime doing your walk of shame the next morning.

Tonight was no different, you were dressed in a little black dress with your hair curled past your shoulders and down your back. You wore your favorite red heels and spent no longer than five minutes on your smokey eye.

"Steve!" You squealed, you clearly were a tad bit tipsy. "Bucky! Oh my god, you guys are great. So how do you like the party? Pretty amazing, huh?"

"The parties...nice," Steve hesitated, truth be told he wasn't enjoying this party. Parties just weren't his thing, even back in the day when Bucky would drag him to parties, Steve would simply sit at the bar and wait to go home. Steve chuckled as you clumsily sat down in a chair next to him and Bucky, your right hand still grasping your drink.

You took another sip and averted your eyes to Bucky, waiting for his answer. "The parties great! You look like you're enjoying it," Bucky laughed as he watched your eyes grow huge.

"I am!" You squirmed in your seat and looked around the crowded room. You started giggling and turned your attention back to the guys, "I've got hit on four times," You held up four fingers.

Steve raised his eyebrows trying to act impressed and Bucky simply hummed as he took a sip of his beer.

Tony suddenly appeared beside you, clearly already wasted. "I'm going to get drunk tonight!" He laughed as he reached around you and stole a sip of your drink.

You joined in on his laughing and hit his shoulder playfully, "You already are drunk, dumb ass!"

Tony called the bartender over and ordered himself another drink. "I guess I am," He giggled. Tony Stark just fucking giggled.

You got distracted again by a guy who looked fairly attractive across the room, you stood up, adjusting your dress to make your girls look perky. You set your drink down and fixed your hair, you were preparing yourself to make a move on the attractive gentlemen.

"Well, I've found the man that I'm going to try to sleep with tonight. I'll try to catch you two before I leave," You giggled again before making your way across the room.

Once you were gone, Steve turned to Bucky who currently had a displeasing look on his face as he took another drink of his beer. "You know, you should really try to talk to her sometime," Steve said as he turned in his seat to face Bucky.

Bucky made a face, "Steve, I can't just go up and confess my feelings to her. I mean look at her," Bucky glanced back at where you stood with the guy who clearly staring directly at your chest. "She's gorgeous and she's in love with the party life, not me."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa," Tony slurred, butting into the conversation. "Are you talking about Y/N?"

Bucky nodded miserably, "Fucky-I mean Bucky-why don't you just go and tell her you love her?" Tony clearly hadn't been paying attention when Bucky gave his reasoning as to why he couldn't do that only seconds ago.
