I'm sorry this one is like, extra short! Do remember these are one-shots, wasn't really trying to make them long? Idk what I was trying to do really, just to pass the damn class. As usual, stay tuned for more if you'd like to know more about these two!

It was official, he was doing this. His mind screamed at him, urging him to get up from the uncomfortable black chair and flee the room. His heart told him to stay. He had to do this. It was the first step to go back to how things were before. The first step to get his life back. Bucky was tired of hiding and running away. He had to stop waiting for something good to happen, for the world to decide it was safe outside; no, he needs to go out and get it.

It was one of the things she repeatedly told him. ´´You have to at least try´´, Belle said. Here he was, wearing a navy button-up shirt Belle had bought for him along with some black trousers. ''You're not wearing a t-shirt and jeans, Bucky. It's a job interview''. Now, these were the nicest clothes he owned. He figured that if he ends up getting the job, he would buy more so that maybe he could wear them on their dates. He owed her at least that.

Also, doing this interview would be the most contact he's had with someone else that was not Belle and the occasional neighbor that waved at him in the halls, and the cashiers at the grocery store. He really was doing this. ''Your savings are not going to last forever'' but he wasn't thinking about that. He was thinking of actually having to do something with his life again, to be productive and move on.

They still haven't called him, maybe he could still leave. He would tell Belle that they just weren't interested anymore. She would urge him to try somewhere, he knew. Then he would do it all over again. Think Bucky, was this really worth it?
