I always get sleepy on long drives, especially if I'm not the one doing the driving. I was having a hard time keeping my eyes open, especially with Bucky rubbing his thumb so softly on the back of my hand. I wasn't completely asleep when we pulled up to the apartment, but my eyes were closed and I was curled up comfortably in my seat.

"Wake up Sleeping Beauty" I heard Bucky say as he put the car in park and turned it off, his hand slipping from mine.

I smiled but kept my eyes closed, "Sleeping Beauty only woke up when she was kissed by her true love"

I felt his hands brush my hair away from my face and I opened my eyes the moment his lips touched mine.

I saw him smirking as he pulled away, "Well what do you know, it worked"

I felt the blush spreading across my cheeks, "Of course it did…you're my true love" I said softly before reaching for the door and stepping out of the SUV. Bucky grabbed our bag from the back seat and took my hand as we walked towards the entrance to the building. I laid my head on his shoulder as we walked upstairs, smiling up at him when he looked down at me.

He opened the door and allowed me to walk in first…I laid my purse on the small table by the door but didn't bother flipping on the light switch. I heard Bucky drop our bag on the floor and a second later I felt his strong hands around my waist.

I felt his warm breath on my neck as he whispered, "We're finally home…I think it's time"

I turned around to face him, giving him my best confused expression, "Time for what?" I asked, trying hard not to smile.

The disappointed look on his face made me crack a smile and when he realized I was teasing him, he growled and pulled me closer, "I'm going to make you pay for that" he promised, leaning down to kiss down my neck.

I pulled away from him with a grin on my face and started walking backwards, taking each step deliberately slow. I reached down and unbuttoned the first button of my shirt slowly. I had been waiting for this moment for an entire week and I was going to enjoy every second of it.

He watched me as I took another step back and reached down to open the second button. He took a step forward and removed his leather jacket as I took a step back. His steps were much larger and quicker than mine so he caught up with me just as I undid the last button of my shirt.

He was leaning down to kiss me when his cell phone rang…he closed his eyes and let out a loud sigh. I couldn't help but giggle as he reached into the pocket of his jeans to pull his phone out, rolling his eyes when he saw who was calling.

"Steve, this better be fucking important" he said, not even bothering to say hello...a wild grin spread across his face when I started to slide my shirt open.

"Yeah, we just got back in to town...matter of fact, we are walking in the door right now" he said. I closed my shirt and folded my arms across my chest…I giggled when he frowned and reached out to pull my shirt back open.

"Yeah sure Steve…what time?...Okay, I'll see you then" Bucky slid his phone back in his pocket and gave me his full attention again.

"What was that all about?" I asked, reaching out to slide my hands across his chest.

"He wants me to meet him tomorrow to take a look at something" he replied, closing his eyes as I continued touching him.

"Take a look at what?"

"Don't know, don't care…at least not right this second I don't" he said, opening his eyes and grabbing my wrists, "All I care about right now is you"

He pulled my arms around his neck and once I had them securely wrapped around him, he reached down and picked me up so I could wrap my legs around his waist. He leaned me up against the wall as his lips crashed into mine. I moaned into the kiss and slid my tongue into his mouth. He pushed his hips into me and I gasped when I felt how hard he was under his jeans.

"Bedroom" I choked out, "Now!"

I heard him snicker as he reached down to hold me close to him and walk us towards the bedroom. He let me down as soon as we entered and I stepped backwards towards the bed. Bucky reached down to pull his shirt off and stalk towards me, a devilish smile on his face. I bit my lip and reached down to pull my own off. He bent down and kissed me hard…I felt him reach down and unbutton my jeans and quickly unzip them, yanking them down my legs. The look in his eyes was enough to cause heat to rush to the pit of my stomach. He waited until I had stepped out of them before he grabbed my hips and pulled me against him again.

One hand went to my face, pulling me towards his mouth…the other slid from my hip and down between my legs. I felt him smile into the kiss when his hand felt the moistened fabric of my panties. I felt him start to slide the fabric aside and I was anxiously waiting for him to slip his finger inside of me when my phone suddenly rang. The familiar ringtone brought a groan from my lips and I stepped back from him, panting heavily.

"Leave it" he demanded when he saw me reach down for my pants to retrieve my phone.

"This is one call that I actually can't ignore" I said, pulling it from my pocket. I turned it around so he could see the name on the caller ID: Mom

She had to pick the worst possible time to call me.

I saw Bucky's eyes widen slightly and smile. In the entire time we had been together, he had never heard me on the phone with my mom. I had called her earlier this week after my run in with Deacon Lister but Bucky had been at work and I had only gotten to talk to her for a few minutes.

I lay down on the bed and motioned for Bucky to do the same…I looked down to answer and then put it on speaker phone. When I looked up, Bucky was sliding his jeans down his hips and smiling at me.

My mouth dropped open but no words came out….he made his way over to the bed and climbed in beside me.

"Eden?" I heard my mom's voice come from the phone.

"…Hey mom…sorry, I was uh…in the middle of something"

Bucky laid his head on my stomach and my hands instinctually went to his hair, smoothing it down…I jumped when I felt his fingers begin to trace patterns on the skin.

He was looking at me as I talked to my mother…listening to her ask the normal mom questions: How's business going? Am I eating enough? How are Jill and Brooke? Have I met anyone?

He glanced up with a smile when she asked that last question, waiting to see how I would answer it.

"…Actually mom, I did…I mean I have met someone…" I stammered.

"Well why didn't you call and tell me dear? Tell me all about him" she gushed happily.

I smiled when I saw the grin on Bucky's face, "Well, his name is Bucky and he's insanely good looking…."

Bucky listened as I told my mom how I met him and how happy he had made me…he covered his mouth to keep my mom from hearing him laugh as she got more and more excited.

"Well honey, he sounds like a wonderful young man. How serious is it between you two?" she finally asked the big question and I looked down at Bucky. I saw the sad look that crossed his face when I hesitated to answer her and I reached down to grab his chin and shake my head at him.

Tell her Eden…tell her so he can know…so that he can hear it.

"Serious enough that I asked him to move in with me. I love him. I think he might be the one mom" I said, staring into Bucky's eyes as I spoke. He sat up suddenly and moved closer to me, taking my face in his hands and laying a soft kiss on my lips.

"Oh baby, that's wonderful to hear. When do we get to meet this young man?" I heard my mom ask.

"I don't know...maybe…."

She interrupted me before I could say anything else, "Bring him to Christmas this year! We're going to do it at Aunt Linda's this year in Colorado…that's one of the reasons I was calling you. He can meet the whole family"

I looked at Bucky inquisitively, silently asking his permission. I wanted him to say yes…I wanted my family to meet the man who had changed my life…and I desperately wanted Bucky to meet them too.

He smiled and nodded at me. I touched his face and mouthed the words "Thank you" to him before I told my mom, "Okay, we'll come to Christmas. I know he wants to meet everyone"

We chatted for a bit longer before my mom finally said, "Well it's getting late dear so I'll let you go…your dad just wants to talk to you for a quick second"

"Okay mom, love you"

I heard her in the background call out my dad's name and then the shuffling as she handed him the phone.

"How's my little Nerys doing?" he asked.

I quickly grabbed the phone and took him off speakerphone when I heard him use my middle name, "Hey dad, I'm doing fine…how's work going?"

Bucky looked me questioningly and I shook my head at him. He had an amused expression on his face when he noticed me blushing. He scooted down my body and started laying soft kisses against my stomach. I reached down and smacked him lightly on the head…he peeked up at me, his hair partially covering his face. The wicked grin I saw made the heat rush to all the right places and I shook my head at him. He simply put his finger over his mouth to shush me and leaned back down to resume his kisses.

I heard my dad on the other end of the phone talking all about his work and I really tried to listen…I even managed to ask him a few questions. Bucky was making it nearly impossible to concentrate on what he was saying. I jumped when I felt Bucky's fingers run down my thigh and I looked his way again, swallowing hard when I saw that hungry look in his eyes. His finger trailed higher up and touched the fabric of my panties, sliding over the wetness and bringing a smile to his face. I threw my head back and covered my mouth to keep my dad from hearing the moan.

"Eden, did you hear me dear? I said, I better go…your mom had dinner ready" I heard my dad saying loudly.

"…oh, sorry dad….okay, I'll talk to you later…love you. Bye" I said quickly and hung up the phone. I threw it on the nightstand and grabbed a handful of Bucky's hair, yanking him up to look at me.

"That was not funny" I said, trying to sound angry…it was pointless because at that moment he slid his finger underneath and inside of me. I released his hair and leaned back again onto the pillow, gripping the sheets with both hands. He pulled it out and I groaned loudly at him, "Stop teasing me dammit"

He laughed and moved to lie beside me, leaning on his elbow and letting his other hand roam up and down my thigh again.

"What's a Nerys?" he asked softly, staring down at me.

"Who" I said.

"Huh?" he said.

"I think what you meant to say is who is Nerys" I replied, "…and the answer is me…it's my middle name, Eden Nerys Page. My dad always calls me that...he's the ONLY one allowed to call me that since he picked out the name"

"Eden Nerys Page" Bucky said slowly, "Hmm…I like it, maybe I'll start calling you that too" His hand was moving up my thigh again, getting awfully close to the wetness between my legs.

I narrowed my eyes at him, "Don't even think about it….Buchanan"

He smirked when he heard me use his middle name and let his hand wander back down my thigh again.

I saw him open his mouth again to say something but I stopped him, "No more talking Bucky…I've been waiting all week for this, remember?"

He grinned at me and started to reach for the waistband of my panties but the phone on the dresser started ringing again and he stopped.

I groaned in frustration and reached for the phone, "Move!" I demanded and motioned for Bucky to get off me. He stood up from the bed and watched as I got up with the phone and marched out of the bedroom, "Stay" I said when he tried to follow me. I looked down at the ringing phone and saw it was Brooke but I didn't answer. I walked all the way to living room before laying it next to Bucky's phone and marching back towards the bedroom. I slammed the door shut loudly when I walked back in causing Bucky to look up at me from where he sat on the bed.

"No more phone calls. No more interruptions. Not until I get what I want from you" I said, slinking towards him.

He stood up from the bed, "What exactly is it you want from me Eden?"

I didn't answer him…I reached out and hooked the waist band of his boxers with my thumbs and pulled them down his legs. I looked up at him as I stood back up to face him again. He stood very still, very controlled…I reached back behind me and unsnapped my bra and then slid my own panties down my legs. We stood in front of each other completely nude, not touching, not talking…just staring into each other's eyes.

I took the first step but that was all it took to put Bucky in motion. He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into his chest to kiss me hungrily. I could feel him, long and hard against my belly, pressing in to my flesh. His tongue slipped into my mouth and I wrapped my arms around his neck to pull him closer. I threw my head back when he started kissing down my neck and then let one hand slid down between my legs. I was soaked and his finger slid in easily, one at first and then another. He was pumping his finger into me slowly while simultaneously kissing me in such a way that I felt my knees shaking, threatening at any moment to give out on me.

"Bucky…I can't….can't stand up anymore" I moaned out. I felt him push me back towards the bed and when my legs hit the mattress, I crawled back onto it and used my finger to beckon him to me. I laid my head back as I felt him settle onto the bed in front of me and use his hands to part my legs. He kissed up my thigh slowly and I felt light flicks of his tongue on my skin, causing goose bumps to form on my flesh.

I whimpered the moment his mouth found the heat between my legs, his tongue sliding along the length of me until he found my swollen clit. He focused on that small nub, his tongue circling it slowly while two fingers slid in and out of me. I couldn't think, couldn't focus…not on anything except the pleasurable tingle radiating throughout my body. I arched my back, pushing myself closer to his mouth, moaning when he sucked on the swollen nub. It pushed me past my breaking point and I called out his name as the orgasm washed over me. He pulled his fingers out but continued the slow flicks of his tongue as I shuddered against him.

Bucky sat up finally, wiping his mouth with his hand and smiling down at me as he positioned himself between my legs. I reached down and wrapped my hands around him, sliding up and down the length and he threw his head back and closed his eyes. I watched him grit his teeth and suck in a deep breath as I cupped his balls in my hand and squeezed gently. He opened his eyes suddenly and pushed my hand away, reaching down to flip me over on my stomach. I felt his hands on my hips yanking me up onto my knees before he pulled me back towards him. In one swift and smooth movement, he slid into me…his hands gripping my waist as he thrust into me from behind.

We had never had sex this way before….it was a different angle and allowed for him to penetrate me even deeper. I was surprised at how quickly the tingle was coming back to me…deep in the pit of my stomach again. In just a few strokes, Bucky already had me well on my way to a second release. I pushed back against him as he thrust and squeezed my thighs together to cause more friction….I smiled when he groaned in response.

I whimpered when I felt him pull out of me and when I no longer felt the warmth of his body against mine. I felt his hands on my waist again, flipping me over so that I was on my back, facing him again.

He leaned over me and I stared back at him in confusion, unsure of why he had stopped so suddenly when we had both been enjoying ourselves.

"…why…did you stop?" I managed to croak out, reaching up to touch his face with my hand.

His blue eyes stared into mine and I glanced down at those pouty lips when he spoke, "I want to look into your eyes when I make love to you"

He leaned down and kissed me so tenderly before I felt him enter me again, slower this time, more gentle. I gasped into the kiss and closed my eyes. I reached around him and let my hands rub the small of his back while he found his pace…a pace that was slow but steady. It went on for what seemed like forever…the slow push of his hips, a delicate kiss, a caress of his fingers on my face. I felt the warmth start to form in my belly again and I opened my eyes, "Bucky" I whispered. I didn't have to say another word, he knew I was close. He reached down and pulled one of my legs around his waist, finding a deeper angle and quickening his pace.

I started to close my eyes again but Bucky whispered, "No, open your eyes. Look at me" he begged hoarsely.

I did as he asked and watched him, looking down at me with so much love in his eyes. In only took a few more thrusts before he pushed me over the edge…his blue eyes locked onto mine as the pleasure radiated through me. His orgasm followed quickly after and he leaned down to kiss me before rolling off and lying down beside me. I immediately rolled to my side, laying my head on his chest and reaching for his hand.

We laid there enjoying the warmth of each other's bodies, basking in the glow of our release.

I whispered, "I love you Bucky Barnes"

"I love you too"
