Work Text:
Bucky was sitting on a boring couch, in a boring meeting that Steve had forced him to attend to socialize with more people besides him, Sam, and Nat. He was too deep in thought to notice that Sam had just sat next to him just a few seconds ago.
"sometimes I want to know what goes through your head when you do that" Sam said breaking into his silence.
"do what?"
"you know, when you stare at nothing" Sam said with a small smile lopsided towards him.
Bucky did not understand how even after everything that had happened between them, Sam managed to be nice to him, leaving aside the insults which he heard 80% of the day, anyway Sam made him feel welcome, helped him not to feel as a burden to Nat and Steve, because he really had been the one who take their freedom apart.
"so are you going to answer or are you going to watch me for the rest of the night?" Sam said again breaking into his thoughts, he could really get used to that.
on the other hand Sam just wanted to have a decent conversation with Bucky, he wanted to understand him, he wanted to know what he thought, he understands better than anyone what it is to deal with ptsd and carry the guilt of losing people for so many years, that's why he wanted to help him, wanted for Bucky to understand that no matter the problems they had in the past at the hands of the hydra, Bucky is free now and Sam just wanted to help him understand that.
"just thinking" Bucky said with that calm and slow voice that was characteristic from him.
"okay, would you mind getting off this awkward couch and come with me to get some food?" Sam said to stand up and extend his hand to Bucky to help him up, to what the mentioned took it.
for a short moment of just three seconds, after finally being off the couch, his hands kept in contact, allowing Bucky to feel the warmth of Sam's skin, the enveloping heat that came from it and made him feel protected. On the other side Sam get the chance to feel the softness of Bucky's hand, no matter how many fights he had to fight, or how many ends of the world he was involved in, his skin remained soft, as far as Sam was concerned.
finally they both arrived at a small table with small bites of various foods, among them a tray with many of those mini sausages, Bucky really did not understand the existence of some foods, especially those sausages, why make those sausages so small when you could just use a regular sausage and cut it into small pieces.
Bucky was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't realize that the man next to him was feasting on those little sausages, it wasn't until a soft noise came out of Sam's mouth that Bucky looked up from those mini sausages, the scene that was about to witness was not expected to him.
Sam Wilson, that man who at that precise moment was eating mini sausages as if he had never eaten something so good in his life, nothing unusual would have happened for Bucky if it had not been for Sam, who decided to insert one of his fingers into his mouth to taste what was left of those sausages, to which Bucky could feel the blood running down his cheeks, Sam was too focused on enjoying the taste to realize what he had produced in the super soldier who was next to him.
"these are the most delicious sausages I have ever eaten"
"are they?" Bucky replied with a tone a little more flirtatious than he expected it to sound to which Sam just turned to see him, with a small smile on his face, he took Bucky's face with his clean hand and gently placed one of his fingers on his lips.
"tell me yourself" Sam said, to which Bucky slowly opened his mouth to let Sam's finger pass and taste the juice of the sausages, slowly sucking his finger, passing his tongue in a rather suggestive way while watching him staring into his eyes.
"uh" Sam and Bucky turned slowly to meet Steve's eyes on both of them.
Bucky looked at him, the confusion on Steve's eyes, he didn't really understand the situation in front of him; but from Sam's side, he could see how all the hope that his two friends would get along had surpassed the limit and he had lost all the innocence with which he had previously looked at them both.
"uh, you two really have a kind of special friendship" Steve said and then turned and walked out of that weird scene, Sam could imagine that he would go to find Nat to tell her what he had just witnessed.
"Steve, wait" Bucky said but before taking another step Sam took his hand and forced him to turn around to see him again.
"i didn't know you could do that Barnes" Sam said with a flirtatious tone.
"there are many things you do not know about me Wilson"
"like what?" Sam said provoking the man in front of him even more.
"like this" he took him close and put their mouths together.
the kiss grown on quickly in level, both desperately kissing the opposite, the game between their lips and their tongues, seeing who had in control of the situation, Bucky's hands took Sam's face to deepen the kiss while the opponent's hands were placed on his waist to bring their bodies closer, they returned to the couch where they were at the beginning of their conversation, there Bucky ended up on Sam's legs, he had to say that they were much more comfortable than that couch.
at the distance, Bucky saw how Steve slowly approached the sausages that had caused the whole affair and in the most discreet way he made them reach the garbage can.
surely Sam and Bucky would have a lot to explain to Steve, then he would have to get used to seeing them both kissing in every corner of the hotel rooms they shared, if they continued to share hotel rooms after this, they would see what would happen, all they knew was that their relationship would definitely not be the same again.
