   Summary

   Relationships can be hard, but uncommitted partners with benefits can strangely be harder. Or maybe Sam and Bucky are not as casual as they think and they’re learning to trust each other as their casual affair evolves into something much more.

    

   This thing between them is casual. It’s funny actually, they started fooling around as a joke in response to those news reports saying they have chemistry. They laughed about it, a lot, and it got to the point where Sam said, “Imagine? Imagine if we had chemistry — sexual chemistry?” and Bucky’s reply to that was, “Yeah, god imagine I kissed you and you liked it?” And well, then he did and Sam did like it and that’s how this whole funny thing happened.
