    Summary

    Steve had dealt with hiding his relationships with men for most of his life. In the 21st century it wasn’t as bad as when Steve was younger, but it wasn’t always safe either. He could protect himself and Sam from any crazies who got a little too fanatical, but Steve felt like he was missing something.

    Summary

    “Up. Stand up.” The voice was steady. Sam holstered his gun slowly and raised his hands. “Shit, I said up, before I kill you right here.”

    Sam got a foot under himself and stood. The barrel of the gun stayed pressed into his neck, warming against his skin.

    "Face me.”

    Sam turned, heels close to the edge of the cliff. His eyes tracked past the pistol looming close, to the man holding it. He looked about how Sam would expect. A dark bandana covered his face, and long greasy hair hung loose under his hat, almost to his shoulders. His shirt and pants may have been black once, but now they were the color of sweat, and grime, and dust from the road. There was a large knife strapped to his right thigh. He looked like the kind of man who could get a jump on Sam, who would make good on his promise to shoot, who knew how to survive. He spoke in a low growl.

    “I know you’re tracking Pierce. Just stop and we won’t have a problem. He’s mine.”

    Sam's a bounty hunter on the trail of a dangerous gang leader when he meets Bucky, who is after the same man - for far more personal reasons.

    Cowboy AU! Will probably get bumped to explicit eventually. Enjoy.

    Summary

    Sam watches him as he unsheathes a knife from his – where was it hidden? – and presses down, still holding a hand to his chest. It’s fast; Bucky presses the point to the suit and the armored fabric springs under its point, his chest open to the lights of the emergency room. It’s fast, but he stops breathing enough that he gasps when Bucky’s done with the long, long line down his torso, opening up the top of the suit down to his navel.

    Sam reminds himself to breathe, but all he can do is watch this man focus so intently on dragging the tip of a knife just above his skin, his fingertips following as he tugs it off.

    Then Bucky's looking around the room to announce, “Suit’s off.” He looks down at Sam. “I’ll be here.”

    Summary

    “It’s just not that simple, kiddo.  Sam… he’s just… well… he’s Sam.  He’s amazing, and funny, and smart, and fucking hot, besides all that, he’s Captain America.  And I’m just—”

    “You're Sergeant Barnes,” Peter cuts in.  “Or Uncle Bucky, or just Bucky, whichever you feel like using at the moment.  And you're also funny, and fun, and you're an awesome Avenger, and part of our family.  So why wouldn't Uncle Sam like you?”

     
    “Mmm,” Bucky grumbles.  He doesn’t really feel like spelling out exactly why Sam should just stay the hell away from him.  Not when he’s already told himself why about a million and a half times.

    “You think you're not worthy of him or something, Uncle Bucky?” Peter gently asks.  “Is that it?”

    Summary

    “He was thorough,” Bucky observes, cracking a smile as he flips through the pages of Sam’s old history book. “Was he always like this?”

    “Only with the things he was especially taken with,” Sarah says. A smirk plays at the corner of her mouth. “He was very taken with the Howlies.”

    Sarah fits a lot of meaning in the way she says taken, and Bucky gets it. “Gabe?”

    “Was one of his personal heroes.” Sarah pauses and eyes Bucky meaningfully. “But Sam didn’t have an enormous schoolboy crush on Gabe Jones.”

    Or: the one where Sam had a childhood crush on Howlies-era Bucky
