Somnambulist

Summary:

Steve's first night with Bucky is nothing like he imagined.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Steve had waited far too long to sleep in the same bed as Bucky. He had dreamed up the scenario so many times that he was certain what the experience would be like: sweet tenderness, whispered confessions (pillow talk, as he heard), and waking up with twin tired smiles. But of course, their first night together was nothing like that.

They both dozed off, and in Steve’s dream, Bucky was caressing his face. It was so real, he woke up, feeling cool metal touching his chin.

Then the hand moved down, down from his chin to wrap around his throat.

Notes:

Somnambulist is a really fancy word for a sleepwalker. There was a video in my psych class about a similar sleepwalking experience (which can be way more than just walking), so that inspired this drabble.

Anyway, hope you enjoyed it (not that this is a pleasant little thing but you know what I mean)! <3
