Bucky and you were… well, not really dating. It was more like a situationship, even though he had no idea what that word meant. It happened after a mission and while you both agreed that it probably shouldn’t repeat, it happened again. And again. And again.

It happened so often that it was getting harder for you to ignore your feelings for him. And while you kept debating with yourself if you should tell him or not, Bucky made it somehow clear that he wasn’t ready for commitment. But you probably should’ve talked about being exclusive or not, because at one evening, you saw something that shattered your heart.

You had left your room at the compound to get a hot chocolate from the kitchen, when you heard some sounds from the hallway. You poked your head out of the door to see what was going on and regretted it instantly. It was Bucky, leaning against the wall, pulling a blonde and beautiful looking woman closer to him. Then, they kissed, his metal arm wrapped around her waist, his other hand cupping her cheek; just like he always did it with you.

The blonde woman said something that made them both laugh and Bucky pushed himself off the wall, pulling the woman with him to his room. The door fell close behind them.
