    Summary

    Your downstairs neighbour hates you. You're sure of it.

    James Buchanan Barnes—the Winter Soldier, Captain America's best friend (twice over!) and occasional part-time Avenger—glares at you with those cold blue eyes of his, every time you cross paths on the stoop of your shared Brooklyn brownstone, and every time he does, you wish you could just melt into the floor and disappear.

    What you don't know, though, is that Bucky isn't glaring. He's pining, and he hasn't pined for anyone since 1945. Everyone uses dating apps and the internet these days to meet people. Whatever happened to just... chatting up a pretty girl, and seeing where things went from there?

    ...yeah, he also hasn't done that since 1945, either, as Sam is so eager to point out (Sarah doesn't count. He loves to point that out, too).

    No wonder you think he hates you. But, hey; at least his cat doesn't!

    Summary

    Civil War!Good Ending AU. Sodium thiopental is supposed to make you spill state secrets. Unfortunately for your kidnappers (and your dignity), your brain decides the only truth worth telling is the full, mortifying scope of your workplace crush on Bucky Barnes.

    This includes the muffin incident. His forearms. The fact that you know his coffee order, his running schedule, and the exact shade of blue his eyes get in morning light. You tell them all of it.

    They inevitably let you go. Not out of mercy, but out of sheer exasperation.

    Which would be fine, funny even, a great story for the group chat... if not for the fact that it's Bucky who finds you afterwards. And that F.R.I.D.A.Y. pulled a full audio transcript. And that the team leads—including one James Buchanan Barnes—are required to review it.

    Your interrogators probably should've thought to kidnap someone who works for the Avengers in a bigger capacity than Public Relations.

    But hey, honesty is the best policy, right?
