Summary
He figured it was natural, kind of—well, not natural, but he and Steve spent a lot of time together, and Steve didn’t get so much attention from girls, which was a crying shame because he was a good guy and a girl could do a lot worse. But it meant maybe Steve got a bit confused, because sometimes he would look at Bucky with this look. This bright, astonished look, like he was seeing something so good he couldn’t quite believe it was real. It made Bucky squirm inside, a little.

Summary
“What about you, Barnes?” asks Dugan. The sound of his voice brings Bucky back to the present, dredges him out of memories of a beat-up little apartment with sunlight streaming in through the windows. “Got yourself a girl waiting for you back home?”
There’s an answer on the tip of his tongue, one that he’ll deliver with a cocky grin and a half-laugh and a little shake of his head. But Bucky is exhausted and hungry and so sore it hurts to move, and one of the guys in their platoon fucking died yesterday. His mouth tastes like iodine water and his feet hurt and none of it’s going to get better any time soon, and all at once Bucky misses Steve so badly he can barely see straight.
“Yeah,” Bucky declares abruptly, the word escaping from his mouth before he fully realizes what he’s saying. “Yeah, I do.”
[This fic presents a self-contained story that can easily be read on its own. If desired, however, it can also be read as a prequel to "Reconstruction Site" and "Amidst the Rubble". It takes place chronologically first but was written third.]Series

Summary
He finds Bucky in the training room, clad in a half-zipped black suit and panting from exertion.
He goes very still at the sight of Steve, and once, it would have been amusing to see him straighten from his tired slouch into a stance that’s stiff and uneasy. He looks ridiculous and prettier than he has any right to be, and Steve can hardly appreciate it because he’s seeing red from rage.
“I was just about to leave,” Bucky says, making an aborted motion towards the door. He’s looking at Steve but not meeting his eyes, and the behavior’s as familiar as it is irritating.
“I heard.”
Bucky’s expression is all deer-in-headlights, at least for a moment before it’s swallowed up by forced calm. He nods once, decisively, and folds his arms across his chest.
The silence is loud.
“Nothing to say?” Bucky asks, and it’s hard to tell whether he’s irked or relieved. He’s all bravado now, hip cocked and jaw set, but his gaze is firmly fixed on some spot behind Steve’s shoulders.
“Yes. Suit up.”
“Steve?”
“Zip your fucking suit, Barnes. Let’s go a few rounds.”

Summary
When Steve's dad is diagnosed with cancer, Steve returns to his childhood home to support his mom -- a small town called Gold Cliff, Colorado. Ten years before, he left Gold Cliff behind him, left his no-longer-best-friend Bucky Barnes behind him, with the intention of never seeing him ever again. But Bucky Barnes crash-lands back into his life nonetheless, long-haired and one-armed and haunted, keeping secrets from day one.
Filled with self-loathing and millennial angst, they agree to a mutually beneficial sexual relationship to blow off steam.
Steve should have known better than to think he could ever put Bucky Barnes behind him.
