   ~ * ~

   Personal assistant Y/N is in love with her boss, Congressman Bucky Barnes. Bucky insists on calling it platonic, and she’s accepted he doesn’t feel the same …but he keeps calling her his favourite person and looking at her like there’s something there, and it’s driving her insane. One night, Bucky and Y/N go to a hotel room before a conference…and there’s only one bed. What could possibly go wrong?
