    Summary

    Bucky Barnes was just trying to focus on getting his brain to recognize his name again while he drove as far from D.C. and Hydra as he could. It was finally feeling just safe enough to accept that he really needed a beer that had him stopping in a small town bar in Indiana, where a very fierce former fighter pilot named Peyton Lawfley decided to buy him his second beer and put some direction back in his life. One beer became several rounds of beer and shots, which became a place to crash and by the next day, Bucky was sitting in her dad's engine repair garage watching her work and scaring off the guys she was sick of turning down. Bucky knew he was terrible material for a boyfriend, fake or real, but when he tried to explain that to Peyton, she only gave him that smirk and said, "I'm a pilot. I see death threats as dares." True to form and much to Bucky's dismay, every time Peyton learned of one of the terrifying aspects of his life, she not only didn't flinch, she moved in closer, putting herself in very real danger should Hydra find him. It's hard to do the chivalrous thing and walk away when the girl is insanely beautiful, entirely fearless, and unashamedly into you, though....
