  Summary

  Based on a prompt from Musje5!
  (This fic has no pregnancy istg)

  Bucky is adjusting to life and the dating scene. Sam is a bad influence and he slowly starts to see that his perspective needs to shift.
  Any time people get a crush, their mark appears on the crush’s skin. Bucky is absolutely covered in tattoos.
  So he doesn’t even notice the new one…

  Reader hasn’t had a new mark on her skin in years. She’s trying to get back into the dating world, and assumes this new mark is from the guy she just started seeing.

  How long will it take everyone to figure it out? And what will happen when they do?
