All alone in the tower again. You're clumsyness often got the best of you, but you didn't mind. You often liked having the whole tower to yourself. It was midnight at the time and you were cuddled up on the couch watching a movie. You normally would stay up later, but tonight you decided against it and picked up your pillow, shark plushie, and Union Jack blanket and waddled to your room. Sweet Dreams.

You woke up at about eight which was odd because you normally would wake up at ten or around lunch. You thought about staying in bed to sleep more but decided against it. You grabbed your favorite pillow and blanket and headed back to the living room that everyone mainly used.

As you were walking you heard a noise coming from that direction. Thankfully you had powers so you were always armed. At the corner before you got to the living room you mentally prepared yourself for someone. 

You walked out. And there he was, Bucky Barnes, your best friend. You dropped your things and ran to him.

"Buckybear!" You squealed and jumped on him hugging him when though you were the same height as him he grabbed you and held you. You buried your head in his neck and could smell his aftershave. He chuckled as he put you down.

"Long Time no see doll. Haven't tripped on anything since I've been goin 'ave you ?"

"Nah. I've actually not done to many clumsy things."

"Well that's just great y/n."

You just smiled and walked with him to the living room sitting down on the couch while you turned on the TV.

"Soooo Buuuuccckkyyy..."

"Yeeeeaaahhh..."

"I happen to know someone awesome."

"Oh really?"

"Yup. Well His birthday just so happens to be tomorrow."

"You don't say?" 

"Uh-huh and I was planning a birthday party but since I'm the only one here to celebrate with him, I was wondering what all I should do for his special day."

"I don't know doll. It really doesn't matter."

"Doesn't matter?!" You say faking shock "James Buchanan Barnes you are important and your birthday is important. Not a whole lot of people live to be 100. I can't help that I'm friends with a 100 year old geezer who has better health than I do."

"Hehehe you always know how to make me smile y/n"

"I try. Really though, what do you wanna do for your birthday?"

"I dunno doll, how bout we figure that out tomorrow."

You just nodded and you both watched TV most of the day even while making lunch and dinner. It was your kind of day. A day to do absolutely nothing but be lazy with the best friend that came into your life. Bucky treated you like an actual friend would. He never lied or talked bad about you. He never made you do anything you didn't want to do. If he ever got invited to do something and you didn't, he'd bring you along if you or him wanted to go. You both just had so much in common and so much not in common it was a balance that probably made your friendship so impressive.

By night you just got super lazy, you and Bucky were watching Pretty in Pink, and grabbed your pillow and put it on Bucky's lap laying your head down and stretching your legs out. Then he got your blanket and put it over you. Before you knew it you were sound asleep. Bucky didn't know what to do so he just turned off the movie picking you up in his arms carrying you to your room then going to his own before looking at you one last time just smiling to himself.

Soon you opened your sleepy eyes to realize you were in bed. Which only meant that Bucky carried you God bless his beautiful soul. Today you woke up at your regular time of ten. Still in your PJs as always you went back to the living room where the birthday boy already was drinking coffee.

"Happy birthday Buckybear ya old geezer." You said as you plopped down beside him.

"Thank you ma'am. Did you happen to see my teeth, I think they fell out." He said like he was truly old.

"Eheh so Bucky, now that it's your birthday what do you wanna do?"

"I don't know doll, I thought you might know, your always so creative that I figured you'd already planned stuff."

"Okay maybe I did... I had plans for all of us, but seeing it's just you and me I made new ideas for today in my head last night."

"Really? That quick?"

"Yup. And we'll start of with your favorite lunch that I happened to make a day before you got here."

"Spaghetti and garlic rolls? Oh you're the best."

"I know." You said smugly while he sprinted to the kitchen but then he sprinted back.
"Where are my manners?" He said and before you could say anything, he grabbed your waist and placed you over his shoulder sprinting back to the kitchen while you were in fits of laughter.

You heated up the food and made some lemonade. Then you both said the blessing before digging in. Bucky was loving your food. He couldn't shut up about how you were a great cook and he ended up getting two more servings.

"Ahhh. That. Was. So. Gooood y/n. So what now?"

"Thank you and well now you're gonna help me bake your cake and make your home made frosting from scratch."

"But normally the birthday boy doesn't have to make his cake." He pouted.

"But Bucky it'll be so much fun. If anything, you can just watch."

"I was just teasing angel." Oh that was a new nickname. With that you went to the fridge to get supplies to cover the blush that was rising to your cheeks.

The whole process was fun needless to say. Bucky mostly watched unless you asked him to get things which he didn't mind. Then halfway in Bucky got a spoon and got the batter and threw it on you. Soon a cake war left the whole kitchen a mess but you still had extra ingredients in case something like this was to happen so you made his new cake and you both cleaned up your clothes and changed while Friday cleaned the kitchen.

"I liked helping you doll."

"Oh yeah totally getting me messy is the object of making a cake." He just laughed grabbing the cake and putting it into the oven.

Ding. The oven went off signaling that the delicious cake was done. Then you frosted it and Bucky licked the bowl clean even the spoon, and you were sad that you got none.

"Sooo, you think I can manage to fit 100 candles on here?"

"Yeah and burn my cake. Nooooooooo"

"Drama Queen."

"Gotta learn from someone."

"Thank you my peasant."

"I thought I was vmore of that kind of Knight to the Queen type of guy."

"Oh alright then my knight in shining armor, shall we eat this cake now?" You asked sounding snobby and somewhat like Effie from the Hunger Games.

"But of course milady." Bucky said in the same voice.

"Alright but let me put candles on it so you can blow em out. I'll only do four how bout that?"

"Sure."

You took the cake, plates, candles, knife, forks, ect to the living room where you lit the candles.

"Happy birthday Buckybear it's your day no one can take it away when I'm here blow out the candles​ wish for something sweet and let all your days be filled with happiness and memories a new." You spoke softly meaning every word.

"Did you come up with that?"

"Yeah at the spur of the moment, wanted to be original compared to the song."

"It was beautiful like you and everything about you, you meant no one could take away my memories as long as you were here?"

Hearing him say the first part made you blush you could tell he meant it too. "I meant every word Bucky, now how bout you blow em out so we can eat our cake."

"Our?" He mumbled thinking you wouldn't hear but you thought it was sweet. He blew the candles out smiling and then you cut him his slice and yours.

After you were just silent for a bit. Then you remembered.

"Oh Bucky, I almost forgot I have to get something I'll be back I'm just going to my room. Stay where you are."

"I wouldn't go anywhere y/n."

You went and got him all his gifts, then you transported them and yourself back to him.

"You got me presents? You really didn't have to y/n."

"I know I didn't, but I wanted to. Now open them up Buckybear."

With each he opened you could see tears of joy well up in his eyes. Using your powers you got some things of Bucky's during his WW2 time. You got journal, dog tags, you stole back his blue uniform from Hydra (unfortunately if you tried to save him it would screw up the time system), his army green suit, pictures of him, Steve, and his sister Rebecca, some books, his running shoes, and a few nerdy things of his time, and all things you brought managed to look like they did then. (Taking them wouldn't ruin the time stream)

"H..Ho..How did you manage to get all of this?"

"I was able to get them without ruining anything in yours or anyone who knew you times streams. There's things I can and can't do. If I could I would've saved you, but it would alter the future... I'm sorry."

But you did save me. Bucky thought.

"It's okay y/n."

"How about you try on your uniform Sergeant?"

"Yes ma'am."

While Bucky went to try on his uniform you sat looking up at the ceiling. You started thinking about Bucky and all the things you were willing to do for him. The fact that your heart swelled everytime you saw him. It was then you realized that you were in love with everything about him.

"Uh y/n, how do I look?"

You looked at him and swooned. He looked so handsome. His suit still fit him perfectly. He even pulled back his hair in a bun and put on his hat.

"Handsome just let me fix this." You said slanting his hat like he would then. "There perfect."

"Thank you.... Dance with me..."

"I can't refuse you. Barnes consider yourself blessed cause I hate dresses but..." As you said this you used your powers to transform your PJs into a f/c dress of that time and curled your hair and put make-up on your face for a natural look with red lipstick.

"Wow doll... Your stunning... I mean you always are but wow."

"Thanks."

"So may I have this dance?"

"Sure just let me get some music."
You made a record player appear to play Sinatra, Bucky's favorite singer.

He took his flesh hand in yours, and retaliated to put his metal one on your hip until you lightly grabbed it placing it on for him. Soon you were waltzing around the whole living room. Some dances were slow and others were fast.

Closer to the end of the night, Bucky and you had made it to the balcony. It was more like one of those dances where you just hugged and went in a circle. Your head rested on Bucky's shoulder and you honestly had an extremely wonderful day.

Then Bucky gently pulled you away from him but still held your hands.

"Bucky? What's wrong?"

"Nothin. I just... I wanted to talk that's all."

"Oh okay, what do you wanna talk about?"

"You. You who mean so very much to me. You've been there when no one else was when I really needed it. You made me feel comfortable here like I didn't need to run away because you cared for me. You made me feel important again. Never have I ever felt so important than now. Not even then. You don't expect me to be perfect or always meet certain expectations because you helped me remember that no one's perfect. But I want to try to be perfectly imperfect for you. You complete me y/n. You do so much for me and make me feel wanted. For so long I've never been treated as a human being, but you have me that again. And if we go out in public you stand up for me and hold my hand my metal hand unashamed and sometimes you take people's crap for me just because you care. There's so much I can never not say enough for, but for so long I've been ripped of my emotions. You've helped me get em back. You know what one of those emotions is y/n? Love. I love you so much. I've felt that way since I laid eyes on you, and I thank God for what he's done to bring you in my life. And though those years in Hydra were like death I'd do it all again if it mean I'd be able to be with you. I mean you put so much into today and I've never had someone care as much as you other than Steve, but he's my brother. You. You. Are. My. Angel. On. Earth. I love you so much and I want to keep you safe. Can.. will you be my doll.. officially?"

You looked up into his eyes, your own spilling with tears. "Of course I will James, besides what's a Sergeant without his gal?"

"You know how to make me swoon angel."

"Well so do you."

"Thanks for everything and all of this. Here let me give something to you."

He reached up to his neck taking his tags off and putting them on you.

"But Bucky..."

"Hey I can give to you what I want. It's okay. Besides I want people to know we are together now and that they can shut up and Steve can pay Sam twenty Bucks. But don't think that's why I'm with you. I thought it was about time we got together."

"You're right ehehe."

"Oh and it's no way of saying your mine is saying we are each other's."

"I know James. Way to be sweet though. Hey you have something on your face."

"Really where?" He said smugly. Dang he knew what you were doing but you couldn't care less you've been wanting to do it for so long. You kissed him softly. "Right there."

"I don't think you got it all off though."

Before you could process Bucky's lips were already on yours again. It was so sweet and slow. Just right. Sparks like electricity buzzed through you and you were so happy. You both broke the kiss smiling radiantly at each other.

"Happy birthday my knight in shining armor."

"Thank you Angel. It wouldn't be worth celebrating without the person I love."
