Summary
“Did you miss the future?” Me, he doesn’t say. Hopes it’s implied anyway.
“No,” Steve says easily, putting down his newspaper on the table. “Not as much as I thought I would. I always felt like I...”
It takes too long for Bucky to recover the breath that caught in his lungs somewhere between that fateful no and when Steve stopped talking. Right. Steve stopped talking.
“Felt like what?” Bucky prompts. He wonders, vaguely, if Steve noticed the crack in his voice.
“Like I didn’t belong.”
I don’t belong.
“Like I was living a life that wasn’t meant for me.”
But I thought maybe...
“That wasn’t mine.”
I thought I belonged with you.
Or
Bucky reflects on his final days with Steve, tries to text Sam back, uses Google way too much, and has a very, very long day.

Summary
“Perhaps you’re worth the trouble after all,” Peggy tells Bucky, and he grins. They’ve developed a cautious, teasing relationship. Steve is absurdly grateful that they tolerate each other at all. He fantasizes, sometimes, that they might even like each other in the same way that he likes—
“God, Sergeant Barnes, if this place has hot water, I’ll kiss you.”

Summary
Bucky Barnes has spent his entire life hiding—from war, from Hydra, from himself. But now, he’s not just an ex-assassin trying to find peace; he’s Congressman Barnes, a public figure under scrutiny, a man who still doesn’t believe he deserves love.
After the battle of Celestial Island and Torres was seriously injured, Bucky slipped up.
"I love you, buddy."
And now Sam is standing in his home, and Bucky doesn’t know how to let himself have this.
But tonight, Sam is going to teach him.
