Love
The hand grabbing at his palm was shocking, almost unbelievable. Then his mind caught with him, the boy beside him was probably asleep. He turned his head to check but the brunette was wide awake. Bucky had half a mind to yank his hand away and scream at the kid that he doesn't want this. Not an emotionally scarred, murderer, not the broken alpha. But when the Peter wrapped his arms Bucky’s neck, he couldn’t resist putting his arms around Peter.
They stayed like that for an hour. Holding onto each other, like if they let go they would die. Peter then stared into the grey eye’s of the Winter Soldier, and Bucky stared into Peter brown eyes. Both sending silent messages until one spoke. “I like you…” Peter said quietly in a hushed whisper. Bucky smiled softly, “I do too.” the alpha said. Bucky hesitantly leaned into the smaller man’s spaces. “Can I kiss you, Pete?”, Peter smiled before leaning and stealing the kiss himself. They smiled into the kiss and broke apart only to breath in each other air.
It liberating, breathtaking (literally), undeniably so. Bucky couldn’t help the smile that formed on his lips. He lowered himself on the bed, just holding Peter, the omega’s head resting on his chest. They fell asleep soon after, sleep consuming them. They didn’t move, toss, or turn during their sleep. Which for them was very, very unusual. It was the most restful sleep they had ever had. When they woke, it was magical. To both men, it was so comforting to wake next to someone, and when they decided to move the world was spinning. Bucky couldn’t believe they were doing this together, the things he's wanted forever. When they got up, Bucky held Peter’s hand. The feeling of scars made him stop. He counted 5 on each wrist before Peter pulled away.
“Peter? What……..what'd you do?....” Before Bucky could get an answer the boy was gone. Bucky got up and started to follow but when he made it through the door the boy was gone again. Like he disappeared from the face of the earth.
----------P.O.V change.--------
Peter swung through the streets of New York, body swaying and being pulled taunt by weight of himself. He landed on the place he knew he’d be safe to talk, the person who had made he be ok with being himself. He knocked on Matt’s door, waiting for a few seconds before the door opened to the blind man. He still had bed head, and his clothes were very loose. His shirt showing a bit of his bite mark from Karen. Peter also noticed that his grey sweatpants were hanging on his hip. The man also did not have his glasses, proving he had just woken up.
“Peter?.....” his voice mumbled tired and groggy.
“Matt….he felt them, he knows…... I messed up, the past came to haunt me…” Peter said voice cracking as he said: “knows”.
“Peter, I need you to breath….1...2...3...4 in and 1...2...3...4 outcome on. Follow me. 1...2...3...4 in and 1...2...3...4” Peters breathing slowed to the same pace as Matt’s, he then followed Matt into the apartment. The omega calmed after a few runs of the breathing exercises. Matt smiled at him.
“Now, who found what Peter?” The man inquired, still smiling making Peter better.
“Bucky found the scars….my cuts….” he said voice low and quiet. Matt nodded, leaning forward to hug Peter.
“I know it's hard, and I'm glad you trust. So I'm going to give you the best advice I can.” Matt said. “Peter I know that you haven’t stopped, I know…..that it's hard not to have anyone. But you do, you have Bucky. You have someone who is just as broken as you are, some who will understand. But broken parts will always fit back together. You two can the broken parts each other need. You two will work out, and this man will make you happy. And if he breaks your heart I'll still rip out his balls and feed them to Fisk.” Matt said, ending with a huff. Peter laughed a bit too.
“Thanks, Matt, I knew I could go to my mentor,” Peter said as he hugged Matt again. They parted ways, as Peter sung back to the tower. He stopped by a coffee shop. Getting coffee for all of the people living in the tower. When he got back it was mid-afternoon. Peter walked into the common area and put the coffee down. The group was devising a plan to find Peter.
“Thanks for the thought, but I was just talking to Matt, and uh Bucky can I talk to you?” The alpha nodded and followed Peter into a more secluded area of the common floor. Everyone was wondering what Peter and Bucky were talking about until Peter leaned up and kissed Bucky while the alpha held the omega close. The two disappeared into the elevator Down Bucky’s room. The couple sat down on the few couches and cuddled while Friday put on Moana.
“I'm sorry I didn’t tell you, I just didn’t want to ruin what wasn't even anything until last night and this morning,” Peter said to Bucky, he then kissed him again while leaning against him a bit.
“Peter it's ok, I wouldn’t have judged. I know what you're going through. I've been there.” He said as he lifted his sleeve revealing his many scars. But I won’t stop loving you, Peter.” Peter smiled before he said.
“You love me, Bucky Barnes?” Peter asked.
“Yes, Peter Parker I love, all your flaws. Which let me add isn't a lot and all your scars. So yes Peter Parker I love you, I'll love you forever.”
“Good because I love you too Bucky Barnes,”The two kissed one last time, before heading to bed. They choose to sleep in Bucky’s bed and soon fell asleep. Bodies close, legs intertwined, hands knotted together, and hearts beating as one.
