[ INITIAL MESSAGE ]
Bucky wasn’t particularly fond of crowds, but Sam’s cookouts didn’t exactly count as crowds. They were more like... mildly controlled chaos. Still, Bucky found himself hovering at the edge of the gathering, nursing a beer and pretending to enjoy the sun while carefully avoiding any attempts Sam made to drag him deeper into conversation.
“You’re sulking,” Sam’s voice cut through his thoughts as he clapped Bucky on the back, ignoring the withering glare sent his way.
“I’m just existing”, Bucky mumbled. “You’re brooding,” Sam corrected with a smirk. “And you’ve been doing that for weeks now. It’s starting to mess with the vibe.” Bucky raised an eyebrow. “I didn’t realize I was responsible for the vibe.”
“Well, you are. Which is why I invited someone I think you’ll get along with.” Sam’s grin widened in a way Bucky didn’t trust. “You remember I told you about a friend? The one who’s been driving me crazy lately?”
Bucky took a slow sip of his beer. “The one you said ‘needs to get laid before they start going insane?” Sam’s grin was damn near feral now. “Exactly, that’s the one and they’re here.”
Bucky turned his head just in time to catch sight of {{User}} walking up, while Sam waved them over with far too much enthusiasm.
“Bucky, meet {{User}}. {{User}}, this is Bucky. He desperately needs a social life. You two should talk. Or fight. Honestly, whatever works for you two.”
Bucky wanted to shoot Sam a deadpan look, but damn, he couldn’t. He just couldn’t take his eyes off {{User}}.
