Introduction to Fake Dating Your Best Friend 101 by crinklefries
Fandoms: Captain America (Movies), Captain America - All Media Types
12 Mar 2019
Tags
Summary
Bucky stares at his best friend as though he’s absolutely lost what’s left of his dumbass mind.
“Excuse me?” he asks dumbly.
Steve sighs and sags back onto the couch, covering his face dramatically with one large, well-manicured hand.
“Dean Coulson thinks we’re dating. And gay. But like, for each other. And now I need you to fake date me so I can convince the Chancellor to fund my research.”
or;
Steve and Bucky are a pair of professors who have to fake date for academic purposes and are real dumb along the way. It's not so much a forest of pine as a whole landscape of it. It turns out fine, probably.

Summary
“Captain America is haunting me,” Bucky says over a bowl of ramen.
His pronouncement is met with a round of silence.
“Captain America,” Natasha says. “As in--”
“The first Avenger,” Bucky confirms. “Supersoldier and hero of World War II. The fabric of the American conscience.”
“But he’s--dead,” Sam says. His look of perplexed concern, ever perplexed and ever concerned, only increases. “You’re aware of that, right?”
“I know,” Bucky says. “That’s why I said he’s haunting me.”

how bucky barnes won his second pulitzer by orphan_account
Fandoms: Captain America - All Media Types
20 Dec 2017
Tags
Summary
It isn’t like him and Steve go out frequently. Sometimes he’ll stop by Bucky’s apartment and they’ll binge watch tv shows, or Steve will tell him stories from ‘back in the day’. They’ve only gone out in public two or three times and it was merely quick runs to get coffee, or more popcorn.
So Bucky really doesn’t understand where this Hydra asshole is coming from when he says: “The reason we took you is because we know the Captain will come running right into our trap.”
(aka: bucky is an award winning journalist who really doesn't appreciate being used as bait for a beefed up, spandex-clad super soldier.)

Summary
There aren’t many things Steve won’t do to save his mother when her cancer turns terminal. Tracking down an ex-Hydra battle mage in the Dead Zone to offer his life as sacrifice for a cure is just one example. Turns out the mage has a conscience. He agrees to help, but he refuses to take Steve’s life. Instead, Steve must give up something else—something precious, something so dear to him it can fuel the magic to cure Sarah.
Now, all they need to do is figure out what that something is...
When Steve wakes up, just for a moment, he’s sure he’s in the wrong place. He stares up at the dent in the ceiling, the one he’d made when he got a little too enthusiastic about popping the champagne after graduating college. Next to it is the green arrow Sam stuck there so Steve would never forget that night. It’s the same ceiling he’s woken up to for the last six months. But for some reason, his mind insists it’s the wrong one.
He blinks and the moment passes. He’s exactly where he’s supposed to be—in his room. Where else would he be?

Summary
Special Agent Bucky Barnes doesn't think of himself as a hero. He's dedicated to his career, and if that keeps him far away from home, all the better. His parents think that he should get a less dangerous job and meet a nice Brooklyn girl (or boy) to settle down with. In Brooklyn.
That sounds like Bucky's definition of a living hell. He's been running from it for years.
Enter Steve Rogers. Brooklyn boy. Not always nice. Hot as hell.
And a temptation Bucky can't resist, even after their initial failure of a meeting.
This is an AU of the Steve Rogers problem but stands alone - you don't have to read that part to understand this.

Summary
“Hey Steve, this is Jack Murphy, our other neighbor. Jack, this is Steve.” Steve looked at Sam a little wildly, expecting to see—he didn’t even know, but some reaction other than Sam’s usual easy friendliness. And there was something there, but it was just the twitch of Sam’s mouth that said he found something hilarious and he was trying not to show it. Was this Sam’s idea of a joke, or a prank? Because this guy—behind the glasses and mustache, Steve could have sworn—well, he looked like Bucky.

Summary
Bucky really hated magic. He had always hated magic, ever since the first time he'd been forced to believe in it, back in the trenches in occupied France.
He hated it even more now.
A beautiful white swan was standing where Steve should have been, and Enchantress was fucking giggling like the asshole she was.
In which magic is terrible, Steve is sick of this bullshit, and True Love Conquers All

Steve is ready for a new, "grown-up" bed, meaning one that is not a twin mattress on the ground. He ends up feeling awkward when the delivery guy brings it, because this mattress is huge, and Steve is not, but it turns out delivery-man Bucky Barnes doesn't mind one bit.

Summary
“We should date,” Bucky blurts out, inspiration suddenly striking.
That gets him Steve’s attention, at least. “Excuse me?” he asks.
“No no no, hear me out,” Bucky says. “You wanna get back at them, right? Imagine the following: We date, fall madly in love, then have the most horrendous breakup in history and make them deal with that. They’ll feel terrible because they set us up, and we get to eat free ice cream and see their faces when we eventually tell them we pulled one over them,” Bucky finishes with a smug grin.
“That’s a terrible plan,” Steve says.

All Those Things You've Always Pined For by LavenderProse

Summary
“Steve Rogers. I haven’t thought about him in…God, at least ten years. Probably longer."
“Who is he?” Sharon asks, and perches on the corner of his desk, hands folded in her lap. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Bucky clears his throat, tosses the sticky note onto the desk. “Steve was…my college boyfriend. We almost got married.”It's been fifteen years since Bucky Barnes left Steve Rogers standing in a New York airport and never saw him again. Those fifteen years have brought him wealth and stability; everything his lower middle class Brooklyn upbringing had not provided. He is happy. He doesn't want for anything.
He doesn't need anything.
That's about to change.- Language:
