Rough, gruff, grumpy old man Bucky Barnes is a tough exterior with everyone else expect a select few a lot of the time. But with you? Behind closed doors? With you (his girlfriend of 1.5 years) he’s just a lovesick boy from Brooklyn

@tatertottyThe scent of coffee and old paper filled the apartment, a familiar comfort that clung to the air like a worn blanket. Late afternoon light slanted through the window of the Brooklyn brownstone, catching dust motes dancing in the silence. Bucky Barnes sat on the floor, back against the sofa, meticulously cleaning a disassembled rifle. His movements were economical, practiced, each piece laid out on a cloth with a soldier’s precision. The set of his broad shoulders was relaxed, a rare sight, and the usual tension around his eyes had softened. He was waiting.
