America's Next Top Model

...sorta

"Hey Bucky?"

"Yes, Sam?"

"Have you noticed anything…weird in the past few days?" Sam Wilson asked, his eyes narrowing suspiciously at the letter he was holding.

"Yeah. The surprise marathons…"

"The Shield toss competition…"

"The parkour…" Bucky grunted and crunched up his nose at his own letter.

There in big blue and red letters, right on the front of the envelope was,

STEVE MAIL!

"Man, what the hell is going on?" Sam ripped the envelope and took out the letter. Bucky did the same.

Tomorrow you will meet with the judges. Only one of you will continue on in the hopes of becoming America's Next Top Captain.

Love, Steve

Both men blinked.

"America's next top Captain?" Sam read again out loud.

"Judges?" Bucky questioned and raised an eyebrow.

They looked at each other, the same thing going through their minds.

Let's get the hell out of here.

But by the moment they reached the door, a voice stopped them.

"Welcome!"

They slowly turned around, only to see Steve, in his uniform.

"Please, come closer."

Looking at each other, Sam and Bucky slowly made their way towards the Captain.

"Thank you for coming." He said with a small smile. "The day has finally come. The day, where one of you becomes."

Dramatic pause.

"America's Next Top Captain. Both of you have been tested, without you knowing anything."

"Yeah, we suspected nothing." Bucky said and rolled his eyes.

"Yes, bang up job." Sam gave him a thumbs up.

Steve did not get their sarcasm.

"But before I announce who will be, America's Next Top Captain…"

"If he says that one more time, I'm clocking him." Bucky whispered to Sam, who nodded his head.

"And I'll hold him."

They bumped their fists together in agreement.

"….the judges."

They looked at each other, eyebrows raised.

"Oh this should be good." Sam mumbled.

"First, the wonderful Natasha Romanoff." Steve said and as on cue, the assassin walked in, all dressed up and stood next to Steve.

"Truly an honor." She said and smirked at the faces of Bucky and Sam.

"The talented Clint Barton!"

Clint came in and went to stand on the other side of Steve. "Thank you, Clint."

"Glad I could make it Steve. It's was a tough choice."

Bucky crossed his arms over his chest, while Sam sighed loudly.

"The always pain in my butt, Tony Stark!" Steve announced and Tony Stark appeared.

"What no cheering?"

They all rolled their eyes and gave him a brief clapping.

"Thank you, thank you."

"And last but not least, our special guest, Bruce Banner!"

Shyly, Bruce came out and went to stand next to Tony.

"Sorry, they made me. And I was bored." He said to the two men, who shrugged.

"Is this going to take long?" Bucky asked and Sam nodded. "Yeah we have a movie to catch. Vision is already waiting for us."

Steve ignored their question. He walked closer to them, with a smile on his face.

They took a step back.

Steve sighed. "Two beautiful men stand before me…"

Bucky and Sam looked at each other. "What the hell man?" Sam mouthed to him.

Bucky shrugged. "The fuck should I know?"

Steve continued talking.

"But I'm only holding one photo in my hands." Tony handed him the photo. "The photo represents the man who is still on the running towards becoming America's- Eh." He stopped when he saw the glare from both of his friends.

"Say it. Come on, I dare you, I double dare you motherfucker." Sam thought.

"Ah…winner! Yes, America's winner." Steve corrected.

"I will only call one name."

"Dun, dun, duuuun, dun-"

"CLINT!"

"What? Drama!"

Steve rolled his eyes and focused his attention back to Sam and Bucky.

"I will only call one name. The man I do not call…"

"I have a bad feeling about this." Bucky mumbled.

"…must IMMEDIATELY come and hug me because I still love you more than anything." Steve smiled widely and opened his arms to make his point.

"Oh hell no." Sam complained. "Screw the hug, we want money."

Bucky nodded. "What he said."

Steve narrowed his eyes. "You are so materialistic. And mean."

"Just announce the winner Rogers." Natasha said and Steve nodded.

"Oh yes. The man in the photo I'm holding, the winner is…"

Pause.

Pause.

Pause.

"Yes?" Both Bucky and Sam exclaimed.

Pause.

Pause.

"The next Captain America will be…"

"Dun, dun, du, duuun, tsss, tsss, duuun."

"CLINT!"

"Sorry."

Steve flipped the photo. The winner was,

"STARK!?"

"Congratul- wait what?! TONY!" Steve shouted, when he saw the photo himself. "What the heck man?!"

Tony acted surprised.

"Oh me? I'm so happy! And honored! Really Steve, I don't know what to say. Actually I do." He produced several folded papers form his pocket.

"I'd like to thank the academy, my awesome self, my mom, my dad, well not actually my dad, he was an ass…" The loud bang of the door, stopped him in mid-sentence.

Bucky and Sam, were nowhere to be found.

Tony frowned that they left like this AND that they interrupted his speech.

"Well, that's just rude."

Now he had to start over.
