    Summary

    “Doing nothing would be helpful,” Bucky said before he could stop himself. He averted his eyes from what was sure to be another kicked puppy expression. “Look, I’m just gonna be real with you. I can’t fuck up this lab. Fury’s got open positions in his lab, and I need to look good for those, okay? This isn’t just a checked box on my requirements,” he told him honestly. “It’s nothing personal but--”

    “But you’re smarter,” Steve supplied, a sad smile on his lips. He ducked his head, a motion that simply would not work to make him seem small. He was way too big for that. “I get it.”

    Summary

    Bucky makes a sharp turn and rushes down a desolate trail, not giving a damn that his carelessness might attract some predators. Panic begins to settle in his mind, sounds becoming louder as he runs in a haste. A tree limb snaps in the distance, followed by a snarl.  

    His ears are still ringing from the rumble of the battle, which might explain why he’s hearing things. 

    Unless something is actually out there.
     
    “You're my mate."

    Summary

    Steve was sinking. He was clawing at his throat for air. Hands scrambling, nails digging into flesh, trying to rip off the uniform, trying to breathe, but he couldn’t move, he couldn’t see, he couldn’t –

    “Steve!”

    Steve shot up like a bolt, shaking as he lifted his trembling hands to his throat, touching the hot skin there. He was okay, he was breathing. He wasn’t drowning. There was no water. He was safe.

    Summary

    “-cky. Bucky!” a voice called and Bucky flinched, his awareness coming back to him.

    “Nn,” Bucky worked to unclench his locked jaw. “I’m fine, I’m fine.” he spit between his teeth, automatic, recognizing the worried tone. Letting his eyes slip shut again, he pressed his forehead up against Steve’s chest. In and out he breathed, smelling the thick dust and concrete encasing them, and he focused on the pillaring arms bracketing past either side of his head.

    “Do you remember what happened?”

    “Umm,” he mumbled, scrunching his brows together as he thought through the ache in his muscles. He hissed out a groan. “Fucking aliens.”
