First Kiss

                                    

                                          
You sorted out your laundry while waiting for breakfast time, leaving your door open in case Bucky came back early. You were looking forward to getting this chore over with so you could do some pampering before heading out for a night with the girls. You were admittedly nervous about going out with them, you didn't know what to expect. You took a moment to put all of your clothes into baskets. You had discovered early on in the week someone kept coming in and taking your used towels and facecloths and replacing them in the closet. It was almost 7:30 when you heard a knock and your door opened up a bit more. You looked up and saw Bucky standing there with his sheets and his blanket. 
"Hey" you smiled broadly. "How was your workout handsome?" 
"We could've used another" he shrugged with a grin. 
"I got mine in pretty early" picked up your baskets and piled them a bit so you could go forward. 
"They have the soap and everything in the laundry room" he warned you as you started to follow him. He reached over and took the top two baskets from you and started leading you down the hallway to just before the labs to a room that was fairly large with four washers and four dryers. 
"This is perfect" you smiled. "Thank you Bucky" you set your clothes on a table, and saw the soap and everything was available. 
"No problem" he opened one of the top ones for you to put your stuff in. You flushed a bit, and started filling up three of the washers. Bucky took the last one putting in his bedding and sheets. 
"I should probably do my bedding too" you thought out loud. 
"You don't have to worry about it, they normally come around and do it for you" Bucky admitted. "I like to wash mine a little more often" he flushed at the lie. 
"Really?" you looked at him in surprise. 
"Yeah, I like smelling fresh" he kept going with it. 
"Alright, I guess that's why you commented on my soap the other day" you flushed, hoping it really was the soap that he had smelled. 
"You always smell like flowers" he grinned. "Its nice" 
"I am always scared of smelling badly" you admitted with a blush. 
"Even when you sweat you smell like flowers" he shrugged. "You have nothing to worry about it" 
"Thank you Bucky" you looked down shyly, biting your bottom lip. He took a step towards you and you looked up to gaze in his eyes. 
"That's distracting doll" he whispered. 
"You're distracting" you batted your eyes at him. 
"I'm hoping that we have another recon mission soon, you relax more on those" you noticed the space between you was getting smaller. 
"I relax all the time" you felt him move a little closer. "You aren't always around for it"
"I've only heard you relax once" he gave a mischievous grin and you blushed a bright red looking down. 
"I have no idea what you're talking about" you took a step back and he grinned even more. Your back hit the washers and he put an arm on either side of you and continued to smile down at you. 
"I'll help you relax anytime" he leaned down to whisper in your ear. 
"Breakfast is probably ready" you ducked under his arm and slipped out red faced. You heard him chuckle and start to follow you silently. 
                          
"Good morning" Tony waved you over as you and Bucky came in. Bucky pulled out your chair for you, and you gave a small flush before sitting down. You saw Sam shake his head and Steve chuckle a little. Bucky sat beside you quickly and handed you a plate of bacon before taking any for himself. You gave a small smile and took a few pieces. He continued to hand you food first before serving himself, and you finally gave a giggle. 
"I can wait for you to go first" you rolled your eyes. 
"Ladies always first doll" he winked at you. 
"Are you excited for ladies night?" Nat looked over at you as you started eating. 
"Nervous, where are we going?" you smiled at her. 
"You'll see. Dress pretty. We don't tell anyone because we don't want anyone showing up that shouldn't be" Wanda smiled. "Maria is coming, she said she's borrowing one of your dresses, and choosing yours" 
"I have to finish my laundry, and I wanted to take a long soak in the tub before tonight" you gave a small smile. "I need to relax a little after this week" you thought of Bucky's offer to help you relax again and flushed a bit. He looked at you and gave a smirk and small wink. You gave him a playful slap on his arm, which was not missed by Wanda or Nat who raised their eyebrows at you both. 
"Please tell me your wearing that short pink satin and lace number. Its like a dusty rose on it" Wanda brought it up. 
"That's a bit short" you smiled. 
"There's no such thing as too short" Nat grinned. "Besides with a booty like yours, it will be a good thing. Maybe we can score you a date for the night"
"No, no more setting me up on dates. If I meet a guy that's man enough to ask me, I'll let you know" you flushed a little. 
"Its been five years, you need to get back out there" Wanda between you and Bucky. 
"There's a dance to these things ladies" Sam grinned. 
"You need a spark" Steve nodded. 
"You need chemistry" you added. "And you need trust" 
"Anyone come to mind, kitten?" Loki asked gently. 
"I will scratch you" you pointed at him. 
"I do prefer it when they don't purr" he chuckled. 
"Alright, what are you going to do if you find a guy that has chemistry with you?" Pepper asked, getting into the gentle teasing. 
"I'll let him take the lead. I like a guy that knows what he wants" you gave a smile. You finished your breakfast and put your dishes away and let the chatter around the table continue. You went to check on your laundry and put everything into driers except your delicates and took those out and put them in a basket to run to your room to hang up in the bathroom like you normally would. Just as you got to the door Bucky was there and he grinned seeing you. 
"Hey doll" he gave his flirty smile. 
"Hey handsome" you smiled back, tucking some hair behind your ear. 
"I guess my washer is done?" he nodded at the washer. 
"Yeah, you should probably put that in the dryer" you stepped back to let him in the room. 
"Where are you going?" he cocked an eyebrow taking a step towards you. 
"To hang up my delicates" you flushed a little seeing him look in the basket to see your lacy bra's on top. He blushed a little and went to his washer pulling out the sheets and blankets giving you a moment to run back to your room. You had plenty of room in the closet to hang everything, so you didn't need to use the bathroom. You did stop to grab your phone so you could text Maria, and read some books off line. Daisy seemed to want to stay in the bedroom, so you left the door open a crack for her to come out if she wanted to. 
When you got back to the laundry room, Bucky was sitting up on the table watching the driers and smiled at you as you came in. 
"Don't you have something more interesting to do?" you giggled. 
"More interesting than spending time with you doll? Nope" he shook his head and you flushed again. 
"You're being distracting again handsome" you warned him. 
"I'm not the distraction here" he chuckled and leaned forward looking at you. "I talked to Tony, we are headed on a recon mission on Monday" he warned you. 
"Who else?" you looked at him surprised. 
"Do we need anyone else?" he cocked an eyebrow. 
"You're not the type of fella to let me go in alone, and there needs to be someone guarding the outside" you knew protocol. 
"I guess I'll ask Steve if he wants to join us" he hung his head a little and looked up at you through his eyelashes. "But we could just go the two of us" 
"Protocol..." you started.
"I'll keep you safe" he reached out and touched your cheek. 
"I'm worried about who will keep you safe" you blushed at the admission. He took your hand and kissed your palm. 
"I already know you're the right partner" he threaded his fingers with yours and you stared at him for a moment biting your bottom lip. 
"I'm no good for you" you whispered. 
"Let me decide that" he pulled on your hand and you ended up closing the distance between you both. 
"I push people away..." you started as you saw him starting to close the distance between your faces. 
"So do I" he whispered. "But I can't get you outta my head doll" his nose brushed against yours and he gazed into your eyes almost asking permission. 
"You'll change your mind, and it will affect the team" you started.
"I'm not changing my mind" he shook his head and you found yourself looking at his lips wanting to kiss him so badly. He leaned forward with no further hesitation and brushed his lips against yours. You sighed in contentment, feeling like your skin was suddenly alert and alive and all hyper focused on your lips. You felt him nip slightly at your bottom lip and you gasped as his tongue suddenly brushed against yours and you moaned leaning into him. You heard him let out a similar moan as he pulled you closer wrapping his hands both around your hips and pulling you flat against his body. You didn't want the kiss to end, it was the most fantastic kiss you had ever had in your life. The way he moved his tongue, the way he held you, you were already addicted. You heard the buzzer go off for your dryer and jumped slightly and saw him staring down at you with a beautiful smile. 
"Wow" he licked his lips. "That was worth every second I waited for that" 
"How long was that?" you hadn't moved from being against his chest, but moved your hands against his arms. 
"Since the first day you opened the door and I introduced myself" he grinned.
