Summary
The first time Sam went on a date after his divorce from Bucky was finalized, he was excited. No butterflies, beads of sweat, or shaking hands; just an overblown anticipation for the night to come that couldn’t possibly be healthy.
And it wasn’t. Sam just didn’t recognize that at the time.
Oh, he knew he’d accepted his cousin’s offer to set him up on a blind date for all the wrong reasons alright, but in the moment he’d felt like he was justified in those wrong reasons. So, actually, they hadn’t seemed all that wrong at all.
Or: Sam could be handling things better.

Summary
“You can’t get in trouble on your birthday.”
Sam didn’t even bother responding for a second. Bucky was always saying crazy stuff like that. Maybe in the Barnes family you couldn’t get in trouble on your birthday, but Sam seriously doubted that his mama and daddy would feel the same way, especially about something like this.
“Whatever, Bucky.”
Or: Six birthdays Sam spent with Bucky, and one birthday he spent without him.

Summary
Sarah’s wedding was going to be the first big Wilson family event since his and Sam’s divorce. And, although Bucky might never admit it, she knew he was sad to have to miss it, to not belong anymore. So since she hadn’t been invited, because Sam was the only Wilson sibling she’d ever truly been friends with, Natasha figured she and Bucky could keep each other company. True, Bucky actually was invited, but there was no way he was really planning to show up, was there?
Or: Bucky is definitely planning on showing up, but hopefully he isn’t planning on showing out.

Summary
“You need to get laid.”
Dum Dum didn’t even grant Bucky the courtesy of letting him drink his first shot of whiskey before those outrageous words were falling out of his mouth.
“Sooner rather than later,” he tacked on, adding insult to injury almost as an afterthought.
“Excuse me?” Bucky asked, adopting a blank expression.
Truthfully though, he’d known this was coming. Well, okay, maybe not this exactly, but he’d known something was coming. When his buddies had all started texting him at once (and all somewhat out of the blue) earlier that week, he’d known something was up.
Or: “It ain’t no fun when the rabbit got the gun.”

Ain’t Too Proud To Beg by jemgirl

Summary
Maybe Sam wanted him around again, maybe he wanted Bucky’s attention again, at least a little.
Not that Bucky’s attention had ever really left Sam. The mere thought was laughable. Honestly, it was laughable that anyone that knew them would ever think that, especially Sam. But maybe Sam needed a reminder — of Bucky’s complete and unwavering devotion? Of his complete lack of chill when it came to Sam? Of the fact that he’d never really and truly leave Sam alone?
And maybe Sam’s birthday was the perfect time for such a reminder.
Or: If Bucky doesn’t have anything else, he’s got some nerve.

Summary
It took everything in Sam to keep a straight face and not let his expression mirror her perplexed look. Because, what was going on? What was this? Sure, when Bucky and he had first separated, they’d had to sit down with Aisha and have this conversation together, and then he’d had to have smaller, more simple, versions of the same conversation without Bucky, on more than one occasion. But they were all a long time ago, at least they were all a relatively long time ago. As far as visitation and custody were concerned, things had been pretty settled for a while now. So where was this coming from?
Or: Sam is just trying to do right by his family and his boyfriend.

Summary
“Daddy?” Aisha said, sounding more than a little concerned as Sam steered over to the side of the road. “I think the car is on the fire.”
“No, pretty girl,” he said, turning briefly in his seat to give her a reassuring smile. “It’s just smoking, because it’s running hot.”
She shook her head, looking unconvinced.
“Auntie Sarah always says, ‘where there’s smoke there’s fire.’”
Sam snorted, trying not to laugh outright.
“I bet she does. But I promise you, the car is not on fire. It’s just… overheating.”
Or: Bucky to the rescue!
