"Bucky! Get your robotic ass in here. NOW!" Darcy screeched from somewhere down the hall.
"I'm coming doll." Bucky set down the t.v. remote and rushed off in the direction of her voice.
"Do you think this shit is funny? I almost had a heart attack when I walked into the bathroom! You know how much I hate when you and Steve play jokes on me and this has you written all over it."
Bucky looked down at the snake curled around the knobs to the sink. Slowly a smirk formed on his face and in seconds he was in a giggling fit.
"You'll think this is real hilarious when you are sleeping on the couch tonight. Extra sheets and blankets are in the hall closet. When you settle yourself down, you can clean up the kitchen! I'm taking a bath and going to bed." Darcy stormed off into their room to get ready for bed muttering to herself how sometimes she wonders how she even loves him.
Bucky looked down at the snake remembering how funny he thought it would be to play this prank. He would be greatly regretting it when he was attempting to get comfortable later that night on the firm couch sent from hell itself. Eventually he would settle on the floor.
A few days after the snake incident Bucky walked into the apartment to find a hysterical Darcy. Walking into the bathroom he found Darcy leaning against the sink, tears streaming down her face. She was looking at her reflection muttering something about how messed up everything was and how she just wanted her mother. Bucky slowly walked up to her and embraced her. Wrapping his arms around her waist, he leaned forward to plant a kiss on her head.
"What's wrong doll?" He asked.
"What's wrong?" Darcy sniffled, "Our wedding is in a month, I went for a dress fitting today and they didn't even have the correct dress for me. It wasn't even the correct shade, shape, or size! They have no idea where the hell my dress is, so I have to wait until they call me with the answer. This entire day has been shit. Jane couldn't come with me so I had to bring Pepper. She tried to pull the whole 'I work for Tony "Iron Man" Stark' bit but that didn't work. Apparently the store has a strict 'HATE ALL SUPERHEROES' rule. I just want to lay down and sleep."
Turning Darcy around, Bucky gave her one more hug/squeeze and scooped her up in his arms and carried her from the bathroom into the bedroom. Whispering in her ear he told her, "One more month and we will be doing this as husband and wife. Don't worry doll, they will find your dress. If they don't that store will just have to deal with the Avengers and one very angry Winter Soldier storming into the store to locate the dress themselves."
Earning a giggle from Darcy, he set her down on the bed. Flopping down next to her he cuddled beside her and rubbed her back as she fell asleep.
