the beginning
Bucky signs, waking up to the bright sunlight into his eyes. Bucky grumbles and and rolls/dragged himself out of bed. Food, he smells food. Must get to food. As Bucky slowly walks down the stairs he hears Steve whistling. As Bucky enters the kitchen he hugs Steve, well more like leaned against Steve. By pressing his chest against Steve's bare back and wrapping his arms around Steve's waist. " Morning" Bucky says tiredly and kisses Steve's left shoulder blade. Steve smiles. " Morning sweetheart" Steve whispers and turns around and kiss Bucky. Bucky melts into the kiss. It was one of those rare days where Steve wasn't called into the hospital, Steve being a doctor is great but... Bucky decides not to finish the thought into his head and kisses Steve again. But then, right on cue, the Steve's cellphone rings. " Damn it " Bucky groans. Bucky just wants one morning with Bucky. Life was punishing Steve. As Steve answers his cell phone, Bucky decides to get ready for work. " Buck? Baby where are you?" Steve calls. Bucky goes down the stairs while finishing buttoning his shirt up. Bucky grabs his coat and kisses Steve. " Let me guess, work called?" Bucky asks and put his shoes on. " Yeah" Steve answers and grabs his car keys. Steve and Bucky walk to their vehicles, the married couple kiss one last time and part to there own ways.
" Steve man, how are you doing!?" Sam wilson says. Steve smiles "hey not much man" Steve replies while taking off his doctors lab coat. " Man, it's been a long morning and we are only half way through our shift." Sam complains. " Lunch?" Steve asks Sam. Sam nods. " Hell yeah" They both walked to the nearest café. " So, anything new?" Sam asks while sitting down. Steve shakes his head and Sam signs. " How's Bucky? Your husband? " Sam asks. " Well, he's ok I just hate how my family hates him." Steve replies and frowns. Sam sits back surprised. " Wow, I feel bad for Buck." Sam says sadly. " Yeah and not to mention his family loves me." Steve exclaims. " That's nuts! Sarah and Joe doesn't like him? Have you ask them why?" Sam asks. Steve signs. " They think he's hiding something and that Buck has a good heart but he is not good for me. " Steve says. Sam gives him a look. Then leans forward. " Is he?" Sam asks confused. " I don't know!" Steve exclaims. " Well ask duh" sam shots back raising a brow at him. Steve took a breath. " Ok. I ask him tonight. Steve says seriously. " Good, now we need to go back to work." Sam says. Steve groans while Sam laughs.
Bucky opens the door ofethe antique shop and smiles at Pepper. " Hi, Pepper." Bucky says and sets the two coffees down on the counters. " Bucky! About time, we got lots of boxes that needs to be sorted and cataloged. " Pepper says and grabs her coffee. Bucky smiles again. " Now heres the big question, are they really antiques?" Bucky asks and Pepper laughs. "Yes darling they are. Theyare dated in the mid victorian times." Pepper exclaims. Bucky perks up. " Really, I love antiques. They are quite beautiful. " Bucky signs and takes a sip of coffee and grimace. There's 3 sugars. Ew too sweet. Its suppose to be 2 sugars. " They didn't get your coffee order right?" Pepper asks seeing Bucky's face. Bucky just nods and puts the coffee on the counter. " Where's some water? " Bucky asks and Pepper hands him a bottle of water. Bucky smiles and grabs the water bottle and walking down the stairs. Bucky rounds the corner and heads to his desk to grab a clipboard. He heads to the backroom. Bucky opens the door and stops in his tracks. " Holy shit" Bucky whispers. That's a lot of boxes to sort. " Ok. Now where to start." Bucky mutters looking around. Today was going to be a long day.
*5 hours later*
Bucky sets the the last box down. " And there. All done." Bucky says and steps back and put his hands onto his hips. " Hey Bucky you all done." Pepper asks. Bucky looks over and smiles. " Hey Pepper. Yes I'm all done. Finally." Bucky says while trying to catch his breath. " Good, now its time to close up." Pepper says while giggling. Bucky looks at her surprise. " It's time to go home already. I spend all day down here." Bucky questions. Pepper nods. Bucky signs. " Goodnight Pepper." Bucky says and goes upstairs to grab his coat. By the time Bucky has his shoes and coat on, Pepper has flipped the sign that now says 'closed' and was waiting by the door. Bucky walks out with Pepper and they hug one last time and parted to go home. " See ya tomorrow Buck." Pepper says. " See you tomorrow Pep" Bucky says using her nickname. Peper smiles and goes into her car. As Bucky was driving home, he signed. Today aas hard and he was exhausted. He just wanted to go home and cuddle Steve. Thats all he is asking. Like nothing can go wrong.
