Tom and his eight-year-old son, Dexter, were over at Tom’s parents, who had invited them both to dinner to catch up. The dinner was going smoothly smoothly, all filled with giggles and laughs. Until it wasn’t fun. For Tom at least.

The topic of conversation now shifted to Tom’s love life.

Tom hadn’t dated anyone since the day, Amy — Dexter’s mother, and his ex-girlfriend — had left him. Until he met you.

You were everything he’d ever imagined. You with your beautiful smile, your glistening eyes, and your adorable smile. He was smitten.

He’d taken you out on a few dates and sparkes definitely flew between you two. You liked him, he liked you. What was stopping him from making you his?

He was scared to love again.

He didn’t want you to leave him, like Amy did. He didn’t want to lose you.

So, he’d been putting it off until he was really sure.

The only person who knew about you was Dexter, after he’d caught his dad talking to a girl named Y/N well late into the night when he’d came into his room because he had a nightmare.

That night, Tom gushed all about you to his little son, his heart fluttering at the thought of you.

Dexter was a smart boy. He noticed the way his fathers eyes glimmered whenever he talked about you, the smile on his lips made him smile. Dexter had never seen his father this happy. His father was happy and so was he.

But as kids do, Dexter never missed an opportunity to tease his father. And when the topic of his fathers love life was brought up by his grandmother — it was the perfect opportunity.

“Tom, darling, are you seeing anyone? Its been...quite some time since Amy.” She gave him a tight lipped smile, apologetically.

Tom froze, his eyes widening slightly, staying silent, trying to conjure up an answer. What he didn’t notice was Dexter’s eyes and the mischievous glint in them.

“Grandma! Daddy’s got a girlfriend, and he’s in loooove,” The little boy giggled, as everyone’s head whipped around to look at him, including Tom’s, who’s eyes widened further, and his lips parted in shock.

“Dex, what did you say?” Harry asked the little boy, who was playing with the brocoli on his plate.

“Daddy’s got a girlfriend and her name is—”

“She’s not my girlfriend!” Tom cut Dexter off, as the young boy laughed at his fathers flushed face which was filled with embarrassment.

“Tom, is that true? You have a girlfriend?” Nikki smiled, her heart exploding in happiness at the thought of his son finally finding love once again. Tom sighed, knowing there was no way out of this.

“Well, not quite, we’ve just gone out on a few dates, nothing much.” He answered, before quickly shoving his mouth with food to avoid any further questions.

The rest of dinner was filled with questions about you, the girl they’d came to know as Y/N, the girl who’d made Tom’s heart do somersaults just at the mere mention of your name.

Bucky stole my heart here and I ain’t normally a metal arm fan but damn

hey queen! i was wondering if i could request a bucky x avengers! reader, they’re both just hella touch starved and have a day off at the compound. Basically just in-depth detailed cuddling w our fav brooding bitch with the metal arm<33 i adore ur fics!!

➽ pairing: bucky barnes x fem!reader (y/n) ➽ word count: 538 ➽ summary: see above!!  ➽ warnings: too much fluff ➽ a/n: enjoy! masterlist/taglist in bio :) 

Saturdays were like holy days at the Compound. Unless there was an urgent mission, Saturdays were what Rogers and Bucky and the other military guys called “down days”. It was for sleeping in late, laundry, grocery-store runs, whatever needed to be done. The sleeping late bit would have been glorious, except for the fact that your bed partner apparently had a thing against it. 

The alarm went off at four-thirty, just like every other morning, and you groaned. “Jesus Christ, Buck,” you grumbled. “It’s Saturday.” 

“I have a schedule,” Bucky said simply. You could tell that he was hardly awake, his voice deep and raspy from sleeping with his mouth open, and you knew that it wouldn’t take much to convince him to stay in bed. 

“C’mon, baby,” you said softly and reached out for him. It was dark in the room and you groped blindly for a minute before your hand was filled by his cold metal fingers. “Just five more minutes?” 

Bucky sighed out your name, obviously exasperated. “I have to keep with the schedule--” 

“But I’m so cold,” you whimpered. “Bucky, please, baby. Just lay down with me for five minutes. You can spare five minutes, right?”

Bucky gave a little huff and he laid back down next to you. You clung to his arm and slung it around your chest, and you gave a little squeak as you settled back into his warm chest. Cuddling with Bucky was such a privilege to you, even if he hated it 90% of the time. However, that other 10%... 

“You smell nice,” Bucky whispered, and he pushed an errant lock of hair out of your face. 

“Thanks,” you replied. “You always smell really nice too.”

With that, you felt Bucky’s entire weight settle down beside you, and you knew that five minutes would turn into however long you wanted. He tugged you closer, laying a leg over yours, and you felt his breathing and heartbeat against your back. Bucky hardly ever slept and, when he did, it was erratic, so you enjoyed the moments where he was still and content. You could always tell when he was happy; he sighed and hummed gently, and you could feel the difference in your heart. 

Bucky’s beefy chest was almost hot against your back, and you took his metal hand in your own. In the dim light of the room, you saw the deft fingers whirring, and you placed soft kisses to his fingertips. You seem like you’ve had a really hard few weeks,” you whispered. 

Bucky hummed and nodded. “Just glad you’re here,” he said. “I feel better with you in my arms.” 

You carefully turned around to face him, and you found his blue eyes watching you. His hair was wild with sleep, and you placed a soft kiss on his nose as you threaded your fingers through his hair. “I feel better being in your arms,” you told him. “Feel so warm and safe and loved…”

“You should,” Bucky whispered. “I’ve never loved anyone the way I love you.” 

That made you smile, and you smushed your cheek into his chest. “Go back to sleep, Buck,” you whispered. “And dream a little dream of me and you.” 

i love being in bed like yea everything is terrible but at least i’m in bed
