Summary
Steve wakes to the sound of someone moving about in the kitchen below him. He lies for a few moments, trying to recall—a dream?
He looks around the room. Cream walls. Blue floral curtains. A star-patterned quilt in blue and white with touches of red. He is—? His breath catches in his throat, his mind blank. Where is he?
He exhales.
He looks over at the nightstand and there is a piece of card propped up there. He reaches out to take it.
You are Captain America. You are Steve Rogers. It is 1956. You are married to Peggy Rogers, nee Carter. You live in New Jersey. Sometimes you have trouble remembering.
-----
Steve Rogers wakes up on Tuesday October 30 1956, and doesn't seem to remember his life that well. Why does every day feel so familiar? And why does he keep getting visited by tall, dark, handsome men who remind him of Bucky?

Summary
“Anyway, even I know this is bullshit. We were in art class together when we heard about Pearl Harbor? When did I ever go to art class with you? And it was a fucking Sunday. You were probably at church or something. Right?” Bucky looks uncertainly at Steve, his brow furrowing.
Steve’s heart clenches in his chest and feels a surge of anger at all those people out there who know nothing about them, who have built a universe up around versions of Steve Rogers and Bucky Barnes that never existed, who have made Bucky doubt his own fragile memories.

Summary
‘Bucky, do you know why I came up to you in the bar tonight?’
Bucky shakes his head. Because he really doesn’t.
‘Because to me, you look perfect.’ Steve’s eyes are so dark and his pale skin is flushed pink. ‘You look strong and solid and your thighs look incredible in those jeans and this –’ Steve runs his fingertips across the skin of Bucky’s stomach where his cropped t-shirt rides up ‘– belly is just perfect, Bucky. You’re fucking beautiful.’ Steve’s hands are on his face now. ‘Your cheek bones, this cleft in your chin,’ Steve’s fingers follow his words.
-----
Bucky Barnes is single, 30 and gay in New York - totally over the hill. So he's pretty surprised when a blonde Adonis named Steve picks him up and takes him home for the night. He's even more surprised when aliens invade New York and it turns out that Steve is Captain America.
Six years later, Steve Rogers breaks down. He hands over his shield and retreats to Tony's house in a forest by a lake. Waiting to greet him, with ribbons in his hair, is Bucky Barnes - caretaker and carpenter. A man Steve has never forgotten.
Can Steve find the courage to love Bucky? Will Steve have to sacrifice their life together to save the universe?

Summary
Bucky laid his head down on the table (carefully so as not to mess up his hair too much – he’d just blow dried it this morning thank you very much) and groaned.
‘It is that bad Nat.’ He sat up again and took a long draw on his own iced coffee (milk, cream, icecream, sugar). ‘Bucky, I said to myself, how bad can it be? It’s seven years since you graduated, you can’t still be in love with your childhood BFF. This is real life. You are a grown man. You’ve been in other relationships. You’ve moved on. You can totally move in with Steve and Sam and it will be cool. Just bros living together. Sharing a house.’
-----
The tale of how Bucky Barnes tried to woo his childhood friend, Steve Rogers, and how Steve just refused to take the hint. They say desperate times call for desperate measures.

Summary
Bucky was always a romantic. Steve would whinge and moan and then Bucky would always turn up in the evening of the 14th with a flower (I promise I stole it Stevie I didn’t pay) or a folded card (I made it myself) with a poem in his loopy handwriting.
What was that poem? That poet Bucky liked so much?
Out of the corner of his eye Steve looks at Bucky, at his soft hair, at the way he still rests his metal arm so carefully in his lap, even though when they are in the apartment together he wraps it around his mug of tea, as if he felt some of the warmth in the metal and it brought him comfort.
For Bucky, Steve thinks he can be a romantic now, after all these years have brought them back together after he thought Bucky was lost to him forever.
-----
Bucky's getting better, living with Steve in Avenger's Tower. Though they're not what they used to be to one another. But it's Valentine's Day soon - maybe Steve can show Bucky just how much he still cares.
