Alternate "You"Niverse *Bucky Barnes x Reader*

Three

"Hopefully" he looks at you "I always thought we'd get along, I mean he's one of those characters that as an actor you dream of playing, then you get it and you have this overwhelming feeling of I gotta make him good for the fans and that puts pressure on you" he sighed out again, running hands down his face as you nodded in sympathy "I almost didn't take the role because of the anxiety then Robert phoned me, told me I'd be crazy not to, that he'd be beside me to help me through the thick of it and I went for it; And the one guy you'd want to approve – which is him, he doesn't" he flailed his arms out and let them drop to his sides.

"When Steve has calmed down talk with him" you nudge with a small smile "the best way to get through to Steve Rogers is by talking" he nodded lightly at that "besides the tension and stress of today is just riding on him, he probably just flipped on you because you were the closest, it could have been anyone" you rolled your (E/C) eyes at him and he chuckled.

"Thanks, honestly I swear myself and other you have these kind of conversations all the time" you chuckled and smiled at that "we're hoping that in the next Avengers movie you are in it, inside you just being Agents of SHIELD, I think Robert has started a petition for it actually" you laughed at him and he chuckled alongside you.

"Well I'll pray for me" he chuckled "I have to go check on Bucky, I'll see you later" he nodded and let you leave to go see how Bucky is.

***

Bucky wasn't in his room, in fact, through the rest of yesterday and throughout the morning of today you hadn't seen him, you thought that maybe he requested for Steve to take him back to his apartment; which bummed you out because you hoped he would ease into everyone.

You walked through the tower, you don't think you'd get used to seeing any of the other Avengers, it was weird to see Bruce down in the lab and then walk upstairs and see Bruce in the kitchen; it gave you a headache in fact.

"Wanda" you skipped up to the petite women she grinned, linking arms as you walked down the hallways, conversing about random topics "So, tell me have you talked to Aaron?" you asked and she shakes her head.

"He actually knocked on my door last night but I pretended to be asleep, I guess I could be an actress" she chuckled and you grinned at her "I just need some time it's still a little new to me, especially with his... death so fresh that it just brings up unwanted thoughts" you nodded in understanding "how are you and Bucky?" she asked, you rolled your (E/C) eyes at her, she was certain that yourself and Bucky would be a couple soon and you often called her crazy for that.

"I haven't seen him since yesterday, well I've seen Sebastian but... our Bucky" she then comments with 'your Bucky' and you punched her shoulder playfully "naa he's hasn't shown his face" you shrugged,

"I'm sure he will" Wanda patted your shoulder "he follows you around like a lost little puppy-dog, he'll show up to follow you around like the nerd he is" you chuckled and nodded in agreement.

"Can you believe Chris can lift the hammer?" you freaked and Wanda laughed "I mean I get he is Thor but still, surprising" you both entered the kitchen and see; Natasha, Scarlett, Elizabeth, Jeremy and Clint all sat around the breakfast bar chatting away.

Aaron was stood buttering toast, everyone muttered mornings, Wanda excused herself to the gym to train with Sam- although you knew he was too busy with Hayley and Anthony, and you believed Chris also. You watched as Aaron left quickly after her, hopefully, they sort this out.

A FEW HOURS LATER

"Hey, Sebastian" you chime and he turned with a grin "what you up to?" you asked and he shrugged, he began to tell you that he got lost twice on the way back to his 'room' plus he couldn't find the toilet, or the kitchen for a good hour and that made you chuckle "don't worry I got lost all the time around here too" you shrugged with a grin and he nodded.

You frown when you see someone in the shadows, they were lingering behind Sebastian and watching him, peaking every now and then around the corner "Um, I think Bucky is either stalking me or you" you whisper and Sebastian chuckled.

"Me" he confirms and you frown "he has been since last evening" he tells you with a shrug and you chuckle at him "he keeps getting closer and I think that either means; he is slowly figuring out how to kill me or he is slowly trusting me" he smirked smartly "either way I am excited" you raised your eyebrows "I don't think he knows I know he is there, I thought he was a master assassin, unless I just him know so well that I just sense his presence" he shrugged and you smiled, you peeked behind him and see Bucky frowning, he obviously overheard some of the conversations.

"How did you know?" Bucky stalked over, Sebastian turns his torso to look behind himself and shrugged "I'm losing my touch" Bucky mutters and turned to stalk off, you skipped after him and pulled his hand, dragging him towards Sebastian with a bright grin and Bucky trying to gently pry you off him.

"Bucky this is Sebastian" you gesture.

"I know" Bucky tells you, Sebastian watches as Bucky stares down at you, you give him a narrowed look telling him with your eyes to play nice and formerly introduce himself "Hi, Sebastian" Bucky grumbles, refusing to look at him but his feet like a child, you grin clasping his human hand in both of your hands and nudged him to look up.

"Hey, Bucky... can I call you Bucky?" he asked and Bucky nodded at him "sorry if this freaks you out, it is just as freaky for me as it is for you, trust me" Sebastian chuckled and Bucky frowned slightly "you are just a character in my world, not a real person, so to see you walking around and... talking it's kinda weird; especially since I do that for a job" he chuckled nervously and Bucky nodded in thought.

"I suppose it is weird for us both" he commented, you slowly let go of Bucky's hand hoping he wouldn't notice you sneaking out of the room, he did but he didn't stop you; he watched as you left quietly and looked back awkwardly at Sebastian "Is she more annoying in mine or your universe?" Bucky asked and Sebastian chuckled,

"You find her annoying?" Bucky shrugged "she's just the same really" Sebastian shrugged "I think the only annoying thing about (Y/N) is the fact she puts everyone before herself, that irks me a little, more times I have to remind her to look after herself" he shrugged and Bucky nodded, always having to remind you that he is okay, or he can survive long enough for her to shower and eat.

"Is she like Mark? Does she have a family, children and husband?" Bucky asked, eyeing Sebastian as he grinned,

"Not a husband, yet anyway" he shrugged and Bucky nodded, a familiar knot tightening in his stomach, a feeling of deep anger bubbling inside him and he didn't understand why "she's happy, I mean it was a whirlwind relationship, it happened so suddenly and now a year later... she may be getting purposed to" he grinned and Bucky nodded "you okay?" Sebastian asked, a frown settling on his face.

"When am I ever okay?" Bucky chuckled but it came out forced and loud, his eyebrows furrowed and he looked sad more than angry "I'm happy for her, she deserves to be happy, too long she has been looking after me" He began to edge away from Sebastian before turning around fully and leaving "Nice talking to you" Sebastian called after him but he kept walking, shoulders hunched and anger boiling inside of himself, he can't even get you in another universe? How was he meant to have you in this one?
