    Summary

    Sam Wilson is busier than ever – balancing missions, public duties, and the weight of the shield. Bucky Barnes, newly elected as a congressman for New York, is trying to make amends in a different way: with policies instead of punches, speeches instead of fights. When a few late nights and long commutes lead to Bucky crashing at Sam’s D.C. apartment, it’s supposed to be temporary. Practical. Friendly.

    Then one spare key turns into extra shirts in the closet. An extra toothbrush appears on the sink. A joint grocery list. They start cooking dinner together, running in the mornings, and accidentally building a life together. Lines start to blur, and routines turn into something else.

    A story about two idiots in love, learning that home isn’t a place you find. It’s what you build together.

    Summary

    As they circle the lake, some of the low night noises resolve themselves into laughter, soft murmurs of conversation. They pass one couple with a picnic basket, another laying back in the grass and watching the stars.

    “Popular spot,” Bucky says.

    “It worked for me.” Ayo shrugs. “You should bring your friend up here.”

    He squints at her. “Steve? He’s like my brother, that’d be weird.”

    “No, the handsome one.”

    “Sam?” Bucky blinks at her. “What, no, that isn’t, we’re not--” He breaks off, not completely sure what he was about to say. Not like that, probably, or maybe not friends, which stings oddly when he thinks about it.

    (Or, five times Bucky didn't ask Sam out, and one time Sam beat him to it.)

    Summary

    Yelena makes her eyes comically wide. “You have a secret admirer?”

    “What? No,” Sam says. “It’s just, I dunno, a fan, or something.”

    “A fan,” Yelena echoes, in a tone of voice that somehow manages to make it sound filthy.

    Honestly, the idea hadn’t even occurred to Sam before now. Even if he’d thought about dating since the Blip, which he really hasn’t, it isn’t like he has the time to get to know people who might become admirers, secret or not. Pretty much everybody he spends time with is either down in Delacroix—family, or neighbors he’s known since he was waist-high—or lives in this building.

    And, actually, he’s fine with that.

    (Or: Sam starts receiving gifts from a secret admirer. Thing is, he's not so sure he wants a secret admirer—or any admirer. Because he maybe, kind of, already has what he wants, if he can just convince himself to reach out and take it.)
