Summary
Bucky is a stable hand working for Winter Oaks Equestrian Center. Steve is the new jockey Bucky has a big crush on. Both have a passion for their work, for the horses, and . . . for . . . each other? Well, that got awkward fast.
•••
This time the jeering is directed at Bucky, and one of them calls out, "Better make that shower cold to soothe the burn, Barnes!"
But Bucky's still got a lopsided grin as he drops his towel on one of the benches and takes over Steve's vacated cubicle.
"I'll get you for that later, Rogers," he promises as the water starts up.
Steve just shakes his head, face still a bit red, and hears a few more of the guys hassling Bucky as he pulls on his fresh clothes and heads out. The work is hard, but he likes the atmosphere and camaraderie here; there's no aggressive, jealous edge that he's felt in other stables. It's a nice change.
