    Summary

    "I want to be there now," Bucky continues, his gaze burning into her profile. "If you’ll let me."

    Running her tongue along her teeth, Wanda wipes her fingers hard against the skin beneath her eyes. They come back wet. She looks up at the clear blue sky and runs her hand down the line of her tightening throat. "I don’t need any help."

    "I know," he says. His gaze remains set on her profile. "Maybe I need help."

    Smiling a small, incredulous smile, she shakes her head and still doesn’t look at him. "I don’t know how to help anyone."

    He chuckles. "You think I do?"

    Wanda looks at him, her smile widening. Brushing her hair behind her ear, she bites on her bottom lip and looks out to her lake. Even that lacks the answers she seeks.

    "Maybe we can learn together," he says, his gaze drops away from her profile for only a moment. Wanda doesn’t look at him despite wanting to. His expression is too hopeful, his heart beating too rapidly. "No pressure, of course."

    After the events of Westview, Wanda’s content to isolate herself away from the rest of the world in Sokovia. Unfortunately for her, Bucky has other plans.

    a mix of everything taekook: overthinking, pining, denial, sexual tension, hurt and comfort & a sprinkle of delusional canon references (dont take my word for it idk if its how it happened)
    bonus: misunderstandings cause we love a good amount of idiots not communicating

    or

    a taekook canon au where jungkook knows love only in the form of kim taehyung, annoyingly beautiful, dangerously affectionate

    and tragically straight. (or??)

    Will they finally have a chance to heal?
    Will they find a way to work together to serve their Court?
