Yelena loves wearing Bucky's clothes.
Everyone knows that.
Everyone's known that for at least a year now.
But apparently, not everyone actually knows why.
"So, you just wear his clothes… like it's normal?" asks Steve in surprise as Natasha leans into his side looking just as surprised.
"Yeah," Yelena shrugs as she leans back in her chair, crossing one leg over the other as Bucky hums in the kitchen. "Why do you two look so weird about it?"
"Because that's a couple thing," Natasha says it slowly, like she's worried it's going to cause an explosion.
"I know," replies Yelena as she tips her head to the side, brows furrowing for a moment. But then, after a second of looking between them as they look at each other, she smiles. "James, it looks like there's some confusion. Could you come in here for a second?"
"Be there in a second," calls Bucky with amusement in his voice.
Steve looks at Natasha with wide eyes, mouthing Bucky's first name like he's never said it before, and she looks back like she's never heard it said before.
Bucky comes in with a towel on his shoulder and his dog tags hanging against his chest. He walks over to her, not sitting, but leaning as his hand rests on the back of her chair.
"What's up, Sweetheart?" asks Bucky as he looks at her, eyes soft.
Yelena just smiles as she reaches up and tugs at his chain gently, not stopping until he leans with the movement. The second their noses brush, she kisses him, soft and sweet, until he kisses back.
When he does, his lips catching her bottom one between them as his teeth scrape over it, Yelena pulls back with a sigh.
"I love you, James," murmurs Yelena because she can't help it.
"I love you too, Yelena," replies Bucky as he knocks their noses together before he stands, her hand falling into her lap. "I'm gonna finish dinner now. Hope that helped."
"It will once I explain," Yelena snorts as she turns her attention to the gawking couple across from her.
Bucky chuckles all the way out of the room, while Yelena simply sighs and waits.
"Okay, explain," Natasha leans forward as she says it, genuine even with her narrowed eyes.
"Yeah, please," Steve leans forward too, his blue eyes wide and filled with disbelief. "Because I think I'm going insane even though I just saw that with my own eyes."
"Okay, we've been dating for a year and a half," replies Yelena simply, like there's no need for more explanations because truthfully, there isn't.
"I need details," Natasha starts to talk, like she's about to interrogate Yelena for answers.
"Dinner's ready!" calls Bucky loudly, shattering the attempt as Yelena stands.
"Later," replies Yelena with a wink as she stands to help Bucky bring the food to the table she'd set before Natasha and Steve arrived.
Their fingers lace under the table as soon as they sit down together.
