    Summary

    One year post TFaWS, Sam and Bucky are finally hitting their stride as a team when Sam is pulled away on a solo mission.

    The official mission: Find the Time Stone in 1930’s New York and return it to the sanctum.

    The unofficial mission: Find the Time Stone in 1930’s New York, run into the younger version of your crush, fall helplessly more infatuated with your crush, try to keep your crush from finding out you’re from the future, and return the Time Stone to the sanctum.

    Or, it takes Sam going to the past to get what he wants in the future.

    Summary

    “Can’t sleep properly alone in the house?” Albert asks, sympathetic, and Bucky knew he was tired, but he wonders if it’s even worse than he thought before Albert can see it. He always figured the serum did a pretty good job of hiding the usual evidence — bloodshot eyes and dark bags a rarity for Bucky. 

    “A bit,” Bucky admits, doesn’t say that he hasn’t slept a full night through without Sam in the next room. That when he has slept, his dreams have been nightmares. That he’s counting the nights until Sam is back. Only two to go. Maybe Bucky will come back here and pick up some beignets before driving to the airport to fetch him. Sam will complain about getting the sugar all over his truck, but he’ll gladly eat them anyway. 

    Albert nods like this makes sense. “I can never sleep right when my missus is away, either.”


    It seems like everyone around town has gotten the wrong idea about Sam and Bucky's relationship. Sam thinks maybe their use of the term partner is the cause. Bucky might not be so sure about that.

    Summary

    If Bucky not texting Sam was where the problem started, this is where the problem becomes apparent and Bucky realizes the consequences of his actions — or non-action, as it is.

    There’s no one sound that clues Bucky in to what is occurring just through the wall from him, but taken together they are unmistakable.

    It’s the snick of a bottle cap, the squeeze of a thick liquid coming out. The rustle of the blankets as Sam shifts. His breathing going deep and purposefully measured, and the rate of his heartbeat — which Bucky can only just make out, might not manage to at all if it was anyone other than Sam, who he’s so attuned to — increasing.

     
    Bucky fails to let Sam know his therapy appointment has been cancelled. Sam thinks he's home alone.
