Bucky is out on the lawn throwing his knives around. Guns were fun but knives were better. He kept testing them to make sure they were perfectly balanced before throwing them at the targets that kept getting farther away.
“Nice throw.” Bucky looked up to notice one of the new agents walking towards him.
“Thanks.” Is all Bucky says before going back to testing out his knives.
“Mind if I give it a try?”
Bucky looked back up at him, “You ever thrown a knife before?”
“No, but I’m sure you’re a great teacher.” Bucky could see the smirk on the guy’s face.
Bucky would be glad to have someone with him. Most people just avoided him. The only person he really talked to apart from Sam was Wanda. And Wanda was still going through some stuff with Strange. And Sam was off saving the world as Captain America.
Bucky and the man who said his name was Mason spend the day together. Bucky taught him all about throwing a knife and almost got the hang of it.
“You’re holding it wrong.” Bucky said.
“Well then show me cause I’m obviously not getting it.” Mason said.
Bucky grabbed Mason’s hand placing the knife correctly. He then positioned his arm in order to make sure he threw it and it would not just drop into the grass.
Bucky could hear the footsteps. He turned around to notice Sam walking to him and look at him.
“Training?” Sam asked. He looked between Bucky and Mason as if trying to figure out what was happening. Sam then looking down at where their hands were touching, “I’m going to go shower.”
Bucky looked at Sam’s back confused. The mission must have gone wrong. Bucky felt a worry wash over him, “This was fun Mason but I should go check on him.”
“Yeah. Understandable.” Mason said as Bucky walked into the compound.
Bucky walked up the stairs to his and Sam’s room. He heard the shower going and Bucky walked into the bathroom to notice Sam standing there shirtless. Bucky tried not to focus on his well toned abs so he focused on Sam’s face.
“How was the mission?”
Sam sighed, “Terrible. Some civilians got hurt and they got away. Now it’s going to be months before I get another lead on them.”
Bucky placed his right hand on Sam’s cheek, “Hey. You’ll get them. Don’t stress it.”
Sam looked into Bucky’s blue eyes, “Who was that guy down there?”
“Who Mason? Some new agent. He was interested in learning how to throw knives.”
Sam raised one of his eyebrows, “Really? So you didn’t notice him being into you?”
Bucky looked at him confused, “What? He wasn’t into me.”
Sam laughed, “He was definitely into you. He got all excited when your hands touched.”
Bucky crossed his arms over his chest, “No, he didn’t.”
Sam gave him a kiss on the cheek, “You’re cute when you’re oblivious.”
Bucky rolled his eyes, “You know what? It doesn’t matter. The only one I’m into is you.”
Bucky wrapped his arm around Sam’s waist pulling him towards him. Bucky pressed his lips against Sam’s. Their kisses were always passionate. Especially if they were separated for a long time. Bucky could feel Sam smiling into the kiss. The only man that mattered to Bucky was Sam. And Sam knew that.
After staying awake for most of the night, Sam and Bucky almost showed up late to training.
“You’re late.” Hope said with her arms crossed as Sam and Bucky strolled into the training room.
Bucky did not care. The agents were pretty well prepared already. Sam, on the other hand, did care, “Sorry, Hope.”
Sam nudged Bucky in the ribs to make him say something, “Yeah sorry Hope. Long night.”
Hope rolled her eyes as Bucky just smirked into his cup of coffee. Bucky looked over at Sam who was just pinching his nose trying to keep calm. His boyfriend was an idiot and he knew it. He just felt bad that everyone else had to know that as well.
Bucky sat on the bench as he saw Hope going one on one with the agents. They were good but could be better. Bucky noticed that Mason was up next.
“My turn, Hope.” Sam said as he walked onto the mat.
Bucky knew what was happening. He looked over at Sam, “Draga…”
“What? If they can’t take on Captain America then they’re not ready.” Bucky could see the smile on Sam’s face. Sam was going to enjoy this. Bucky did nothing but just sit there and watch.
Sam waited for Mason to make the first move. He waited patiently. And as soon as Mason went in for the first hit, Sam flipped him over pulling his arm behind him. Not hurting him enough to cause Mason to scream out in pain.
Sam got closer to Mason’s ear and whispered, “Don’t flirt with my boyfriend again.” Bucky knew that nobody else heard it but him.
Bucky tried not to react to seeing Sam jealous. It was kinda hot. Bucky bit into his lower lip as he made eye contact with Sam. Sam just winked at him before turning back to the other agents, “Who’s next?”
