Steve's P.O.V
I woke up in a cold sweat, panting wildly. I heard my heart beating rapidly, when I realize I'm at home I take a breath I didn't know I was holding. I had had a nightmare... about Bucky. It started with Bucky being kind to me like at our first study session, but then his smile grew devilish and whispered "You are nothing to me." I had just stood there unable to move or make a sound and then.. he was gone.
Now back to reality, I wondered if the world was telling me to back off Bucky. He was cute, but I didn't even know if he liked boys. Looking at my alarm clock I realized it's around 2 am. I laid down trying to calm down, but the nightmare felt so real. That's it from now on I won't talk to Bucky. He probably won't care which made my heart break a little. I couldn't risk having another man break my heart, not again.
Bucky's P.O.V
I woke up to the sound of my mom yelling. I didn't have an alarm clock because I'd accidentally broken it, so my mom was my alarm clock. I wore a fitted black tee and a hoodie for the Fall weather. My legs adorned pants, and with that I headed downstairs. Since I wasn't awake late I had a hardy breakfast of buttered toast and was on my phone.
My mind drifts off to Steve why I have no clue, but his little smile and just everything about him was cute. My mom waved her hand in front of my face bringing me back to earth. She smirked at me "Who's the lucky person. You look smitten." I blush my mom read me like a book.
"Oh! There's the bus got to go!" I said ignoring the comment my mom had just shakes her head and kissed the side of my head "We'll talk later if you want." Another reason my mom is the best, she understood me so much she knows when to back up.
I walk to the bus thinking There's no way I could like Steve I'd only known him for a day. I look for and shook my thoughts, I couldn't find him... weird. I sit down in an empty seat while I hummed lightly and tryed not to think of Steve.
Third Person
Bucky arrived smiling lightly when he gets tackled by none other than Tony. "Where's Steeeeb" he says and whined a little at the absence of the blonde. Bucky shrugged with a firmness, a little mad Tony believed he can call Steve nicknames already. Tony then left to find Steve leaving Bucky alone again. When he saw Steve he almost sprinted over to him, but thought better of it.
Then, he tapped Steve on the shoulder, Steve jumped while Bucky laughed. Steve offers a wry smile and hoped Bucky doesn't see through him. Fortuanetly, Bucky didn't know him long enough to discern, but frowned when he saw the slight bags under Steve's eyes.
"You sleep ok?" with a hint of motherly concern. So much for not talking to him Steve before answering with the fact that he had a nightmare. He grimaced enough to make Bucky not ask anymore questions. Trying to distance themselves Steve sighed when he hears the bell he says a short bye and dashes off luckily they only had two periods together Lunch and Art.
In his first period, Steve met up with Peggy who was admittedly his only real friend besides Sam who was in his next period. Peggy immediatly could tell Steve was in a slump, so she asks forward as always. "What's wrong is someone bullying you I swear..."
"Don't worry let's just focus on the lesson I'll tell you during lunch." Peggy seemed hesitant, but tightened her lips before speaking again "Speaking of lunch, where were you yesterday." Steve froze for a second, but replied smoothly that he needed some help from a teacher.
Peggy nodded and started to listen to the teacher who explained they could use this class as free time because the printer broke, so she couldn't make any assignments. Everyone cheered if it had been a strict LA teacher they probably would have to write about something boring.
Steve felt like lunch came too fast he immediately went over to the regular table where he sat with Peggy and Sam with some of their other friends. He sighed and hoped Bucky hadn't see him, but he didn't want to risk making eye contact with him so didn't turn around to check.
"Hey Stevie what was in PE?" Steve visibly relaxed as he saw Sam someone he could hide behind. It may seem petty but the blonde didn't want to fall for the brunnete anymore than he had. He answers Sam's question and says he's cold and snuggles into Sam. Now this may have been weird if they didn't know each other, but Sam knew Steve could get cold easily with his smaller body. Sam throws a shoulder around Steve in a "I love you bro" way. Peggy joins them later and offers her coat, but Steve politely declines and continue his snuggling session. Until...Steve's blood runs cold
"Hey Stevie"
