[Being with Steve like this is kind of like being home. Oh, it’s not the location, it’s more the comfort of being in his presence, of sharing these intimate bits with each other. It’s their nakedness, skin against skin and how they’re both shaped so differently than they used to be. It’s Bucky not hiding his arm, the damaged and scarred skin where metal joins to flesh. It’s quiet kisses and the press of hands exploring. It’s the shades of blue in Steve’s eyes, the curve of his lips, how his cheek pulls tight when he smiles. Bucky likes it all, wants it all, wants to exist inside of this moment for as long as they can.]
You are staying tonight, right?
[Because he doesn’t think he extended it as an actual offer and he kind of wants to hear it. Wants to curl up around Steve, wants to know what it’d be like to wake up to his smile in the morning. Not that he’s at all sleepy right now! No, he’s much too awake, much too interested in their exploration of each other, especially with how Steve looms over him now, how Steve kisses him. It’s got an edge to it, something a little more demanding than their previous kiss. And Bucky welcomes it, parting his lips with a groan, giving Steve everything he wants to take.]
Do you have any idea how good you are at that?
[That inclination to want, to take? It’s doing good things for Bucky. It’s doing very good things for Bucky.]
