Earwen85: I'm not sure what you're talking about. In the MCU Natasha is with Bruce. I haven't seen anything in the Civil War trailers to suggest anything about her and Bucky. (Unless you meant MCU as in "Marvel Comic Universe" because MCU means "Marvel Cinematic Universe".) And I mean they ALL deserve to be happy with a family. (besides in this whoever doesn't end up with Skylar is going to be Uncle Steve or Uncle Bucky so they're still gunna be part of the family and it's not like once the couple is a couple that they'll leave the other guy behind.)
supesfan18: Well we had a bunch of chapters with Bucky in them so I'm making up for that. I'm gunna try to have semi-equal fluff for both of them.
Skylar entered her apartment, with Sunny in her baby carrier and a plastic shopping bag on her other arm, and immediately flinched at the harsh sound of metal scraping against metal. Sunny started to whimper. Skylar quickly, but gently, put the baby carrier down, with the shopping bag, in front of the couch before quickly heading into her bathroom.
"Bucky, sweetheart, what are you doing?" Skylar asked when she saw him sitting on the edge of the tub with a knife scraping against the red star on his metal arm. He stopped and looked up to stare at her; her calling him 'sweetheart' had surprised him a bit. He blinked and looked down at the star.
"I'm trying to get this… stupid thing off." Bucky said before he started to scrape at it again.
"Bucky, Bucky!" Skylar put a hand over his. He looked up at her. "Let me." She took the knife from him and put it on the sink counter. Skylar walked into the kitchen and got something from under the sink. She quickly glanced over at Sunny who was 'chewing' on the ear of her bun-bun contently. "So, why are you doing this in my bathroom?" Skylar asked as she came back in and got a bunch of cotton balls from the mirror cabinet.
"Steve was reading…" Bucky said as he examined the ground.
"And so you decided to come here where there's a baby?" Skylar asked with a soft chuckle.
"I saw you leave." Skylar looked at him. "I was looking out the window." He clarified. "I just told Steve I was going to… visit you…" he said. Skylar nodded as she put something on a cotton ball. She turned to him.
"Hang on, how the heck did you get in?"
"I took Steve's key." He said as he avoided looking at her.
"Ah, okay." Skylar said with a nod. She put the cotton ball against his arm and he flinched slightly. "You can feel that?" Skylar asked as she rubbed the star.
"Yeah… it's…" he gestured to his shoulder. "attached to the nerves…I think. I didn't really get to ask questions." He said quietly.
"Sorry." Skylar said in a small voice.
"S'ok." Bucky said. He glanced up at her then at her hands, one of them was holding his arm gently while the other rubbed against the star.
"Wait a sec, if you can feel it why were you using a knife to get the star off?" Skylar asked as she stopped and looked at him with concern. He shrugged his other arm. "Well if you could feel this you definitely felt the knife, didn't you?"
"…I've felt worse…" he said in a quiet voice. Bucky glanced at Skylar to see her biting her lip with a hand on her chest, looking like she was about to cry. He quickly looked down. "Sorry…"
"Don't apologize." She said giving him a small smile as he glance back at her. "So why is it a red star anyway?" Skylar asked.
"It's a Russian star well… Soviet star. They had me in Russia before they brought me here." Bucky said.
"So, you speak Russian then?" she asked. He nodded.
"U tebya glaza takiye krasivyye."
"Wow, that sounded extremely sexy and I have no idea what you said." Skylar said with a laugh.
"I said... You're eyes are beautiful."
"You've already said my eyes were beautiful, Mr. Barnes." Skylar said with a smirk as she glanced at him.
"I was talking about Sunny's eyes then." He said with a small smile.
"Sure you were."
"Fine then, vy prekrasnyb."
"What did you say this time?" Skylar asked with a smile.
"You are beautiful."
"Quite the charmer." Skylar said as her face flushed. Bucky smiled up at her. Skylar frowned at the star. "It's not coming off."
"I know." Bucky said. "I've been trying since you left." Skylar bit her bottom lip in thought and put her hands on her hips.
"I have an idea." She said holding up a finger before throwing away the cotton balls and leaving the bathroom. A second later she popped her head back in. "Follow me." she said with a smile. Bucky got up and walked into the kitchen. "Let me just get Sunny a bottle." Skylar said as she put the bottle in the bottle warmer. She opened up her lap top and put it on the kitchen counter.
"What are you doing?"
"If we can't get the star off, I have a way to fix it instead." Skylar said as she typed something. Bucky tilted his head.
…
About two hours later Steve knocked on Skylar's door and a moment later she opened it.
"Sky, is Bucky here?" he asked. "He left a couple hours ago, I think he took my key."
"Yep, come in, we have a surprise."
"Surprise?" Steve asked. "Did you cut his hair?"
"Nope." Skylar said. Steve saw Bucky sitting at the kitchen bar with a small fan blowing on his left shoulder. Sunny was in her carrier on the counter, giggling as Bucky was tickling her belly with a smile.
"What's going on?" Steve asked.
"He wanted to get rid of the star but it wouldn't come off." Skylar said. "So I fixed it instead." She said with a big smile.
"Fixed it?" Steve asked as he tilted his head. Bucky turned and grinned at Steve.
"Look, we match." Bucky said with a chuckle. Steve stared at the mini Captain America shield on Bucky's shoulder.
"It's better than the star." Steve said with a smile. "You are going to give him a hair cut though, aren't you?" Steve asked. Bucky looked mock offended.
"What's wrong with my hair?" he asked.
"I'll only cut it if he wants me to." Skylar said.
"Whatever you think looks best." Bucky said.
"Well I'm biased."
"How so?" Steve asked.
"Well I told him before he'd look attractive either way." She said with a shrug. Bucky grinned and Steve rolled his eyes with a small smile. "Plus I don't think Sunny would like it if I cut it, she wouldn't have anything to yank on." Bucky chuckled.
"In that case maybe you should then, just a bit." He said he said as he ran his hand through it.
"Alright, I was gunna give Sunny a bath today so after that we'll do your hair." Skylar said as she held Sunny's little hand and tickled her belly making her giggle and kick her little legs. "Steve, could you bring some of your shampoo down?"
"Why?" Steve asked with a confused frown.
"Well I have to wash his hair before I cut it." She said before turning to Bucky. "Unless you doesn't mind if your hair smells like fruit..."
"That's your shampoo?" Steve asked. "I always thought it was just you." Skylar smiled and shyly looked down. Bucky gave Steve a subtle thumbs up with a grin.
"No it's, it's my shampoo." Skylar said.
"Well, I'm sure you'd smell sweet without it too." Steve said. "Not that I smell you or anything- I mean- I don't- I-"
"And you lost it." Bucky and Skylar said at the same time before the two chuckled. Steve rubbed the back of his neck.
"C'mere." Skylar kneeled on one of the kitchen chairs and kissed his cheek. His face flushed as he continued to rub the back of his neck. Bucky snickered.
"I'm… I'll go get the… yeah…" Steve pointed behind him before leaving.
"Poor guy." Bucky said with a smile.
"He always blushes, it's so cute." Skylar said as she plugged the sink and started to fill it with water, getting out the little plastic seat for Sunny to lie in from under the sink.
"Really?" Bucky asked with a grin.
"Mhm." Skylar hummed with a nod as she took Sunny out of the carrier. "We're gunna get you all squeaky clean. Yes we are. You like baths, don't you, bunnie? Yes you do." Skylar said gently shaking Sunny's hand that held onto her finger as the girl giggled. "You should've seen her the other day, she absolutely loves it." She walked over to the couch where she had put her shopping bag. "Look what I got her." She reached in the bag and pulled out a little plastic bunny.
"You're obsessed." Bucky said as he shook his head with a smile. He got up and turned off the water that was filled enough.
"I like bunnies." Skylar said with a shrug and a slight pout. She looked down at Sunny. "But you're my favorite little bunny." She said before kissing Sunny's nose a few times and making the baby giggled and reach up to touch her mother's face. Bucky smiled as Skylar placed kisses all over Sunny's face and the girl giggled and gurgled loudly.
…
Steve chuckled as he and Bucky watched Skylar holding Sunny in a towel.
"Who's the cutest cleanest baby in the whole wide world? You are. Yes, you are." Skylar cooed. "You wanna wear your lil bunny hat? Let's go get you dressed." She said before looking to the two men. "Lemme just dress her and put her down for a nap then I'll cut your hair." She said to Bucky.
"Should I go wash my hair then?" Bucky asked.
"Oh I was gunna wash your hair in the sink," she said with a shrug. "Give you a scalp massage, but if you don't want me to-"
"No no, you can… you can wash my hair." He said.
"Alright." Skylar smiled. "Hey Steve, since I'm cutting Bucky's hair do you want me to give you a trim too?"
"Ah… well… sure. I mean you don't have to." He said.
"I don't mind." She said with a smile.
"Alright." He said with nod and a smile. "Do I… do I get a scalp massage too?" he asked. Skylar laughed.
"If you want one sure."
"Alright." Steve said with another nod. Skylar chuckled before she went into her bedroom with Sunny.
…
"There. Doesn't he look handsome?" Skylar said once she was finished combing back Bucky's hair.
"He looked just precious." Steve said with a smirk.
"Punk." Bucky said with a playful glare.
"Jerk." Steve said back.
"Alright, Captain, your turn." Skylar said as she took the towel off of Bucky. Steve's face flushed slightly. Bucky noticed and snickered quietly. Steve gave him a don't-say-a-word look as he took Bucky's place in the chair. "Tell me if it's too hot or not hot enough." Skylar said as she turned on the water.
"Okay." Steve said as he looked up at her. He swallowed as he leaned his head back. The chair was an office chair from the desk in the corner so Steve was able to lean his head back comfortably. Skylar took the little hose attachment of the sink and started to wet his hair.
"Temperature good?" she asked.
"Yeah." Steve said. Skylar smiled down at him and he swallowed again. He could see Bucky smirking at him as he held Sunny.
"Hey, is your arm magnetic?" Skylar asked as the three sat at her kitchen bar one morning. Bucky stopped, a forkful of waffles in front of his open mouth, and blinked at her.
"Um… I've never tested it." He said with a shrug.
"That was random." Steve said as he smiled at her.
"It just popped in my head." Skylar said with a shrug. She slid out of her chair and went up to the fridge.
"What are you doing?" Steve asked.
"You'll see." Skylar said. She turned back to Bucky and put a letter magnet against his arm. She let go and it stayed.
"That answers that question." Steve said with a chuckle. Skylar took more letters from the fridge and spelled 'Bucky' on his arm. Steve laughed and Bucky looked from the letters to Skylar with an amused smirk.
"Really?" he asked. Skylar smiled as she returned to her seat. "Just gunna leave them there?"
"Mhm." The two men chuckled as Skylar continued to eat her waffles.
Wanted to end it on that cute note. I saw a Pintrest picture of chibi Steve putting magnet letter on Bucky's arm saying "So you won't forget" and it was the cutest fucking thing I've ever seen.
