Bucky Barnes. Your boyfriend of 5 months. The other Avengers love you two together, it was like a match made in heaven to them. Love. The word that had never once been said throughout your relationship. It's all you've been thinking about, you were just waiting for Bucky to say it first. Yet, you've waited far too long. If he wasn't going to say it first, you were.

You and Bucky were watching (your favourite film) ever since you were little. Bucky had never seen it before, so you thought you'd introduce him to a huge part of your childhood. The moment was perfect. You were snuggled up in his chest whilst he played with your hair, rubbing circles on your back, though you hardly felt them since you were wearing his hoodie. It's now or never, you thought.

"Buck?" you whispered. If he didn't hear you, you could easily back out. He hummed in response. Well, he heard. "I love you, Bucky." you said slowly, so you wouldn't have to repeat it. He was taken aback by your words. Yet, he didn't look too happy when you said those words. He was completely still. He moved away from you, taking his hand out of your hair.

"Buck..?" you questioned. You thought this would be the most romantic moment of your relationship, with him saying it back, telling you how much he loved you and wanted to tell you. But, no. When he didn't respond for some time, you knew what he was thinking.

"You don't feel the same, do you..?" you asked as you felt your eyes get watery. "I.. I don't know." he choked out. You nodded, walking to your room with tears streaming down your face. How romantic, you thought.

The one thing that lingered in your head was, why would he ask me to be his girlfriend if he doesn't even love me? You felt used. You wanted a serious, long-term relationship that would someday lead to marriage, but how could that possibly happen if Bucky doesn't even love you. You wished you had said those words earlier in your relationship, to save you from being ad hurt as you are now. At least, you would've known sooner.

"Nothing good ever lasts." ♪

Your favourite quote from one of your favourite artists, Blackbear. You couldn't relate more to that quote. Every little joyful thing in your life is gone. And now, Bucky is, too. Because, let's be real, if he can't say it back, he probably never will.

3 words. Not Y/N's favourite 3 words, 'I want food'. No, these were different. These three words determind the fate of our relationship. Y/N was the best thing that had ever happened to me. And to think that I might've lost her scares me. Those three words don't come easily to me, since the only people I've ever loved left me.

The first time I've ever told a women I loved her, besides my mum, was to my ex-girlfriend, Anne. She was the love of my life back in the 40's. I told her I loved her countless times. Until, one day, she left me. Taking a piece of me with her. A piece that I'll never get back. Maybe the reason I can't tell Y/N I love her is because I'm still hung up on Anne. I looked at an old picture of us whilst we were together. The only thing I have left on Anne.

not the best but that's all i got.

I looked at the picture, remembering how happy she made me. I grabbed another picture of Y/N and I, putting them side by side.

let's use our imagination.

I looked at the picture of Y/N and I, then back at the one with Anne. Looking at the picture that Sam took of me and Y/N, I couldn't help but remember how happy we were in this photo. I took one last look at the picture of Anne and I before crumbling it up. Anne was my then, Y/N is my now. Now and forever.

Anne made me happy. Y/N makes me happy. On top of that, I kept reminding myself why Anne isn't my now. Because she cheated. I loved Anne, but she didn't love me back. Y/N told me she loved me, but I didn't say it back. A mistake all in my hands. Because, now, I have realized that I love Y/N. She makes me happy. And I love her.

I walked up to her room. Her door was slightly opened, and from the outside of her room I could hear her crying. My heart broke into a million pieces, just hearing her cry and knowing it was my fault. I slowly opened the door to see her in her bed, her hands covering her face. She was still in my hoodie. Somehow, Y/N still managed to look gorgeous whilst she was crying. Another reason why I love her. She's perfect.

I walked into her room, slowly sitting on her bed. She didn't say anything. She didn't do anything. "Just say it." she mumbled. "What?" I questioned. "Just tell me you don't love me! Get it over with so you can leave!" she yelled. I sighed, wrapping my arms around her, pulling her into my embrace. To my surprise, she didn't fight back, she didn't pull away. "I love you, too." I whispered, now causing her to pull away. "What..?" she said, obviously shocked. I gave her a weak smile. "I realized that I love you more than anything in this world. I'm sorry I didn't say that earlier, but I love you, Y/N Y/L/N." I said, wiping her tears. I pulled her back into my embrace, kissing her forehead. "I love you, Bucky.." she mumbled into my neck. I pulled her head up gently to kiss her.
