    Summary

    Three Fics: teammates to friends with benefits to boyfriends.

     

    Bucky Barnes transfers schools and ice hockey teams, dumping him into Steve Rogers life so unexpectedly that it makes his heart hurt because... that's a thing, right? His body is scrambled. He's not just got a crush on his new teammate like he told himself he wouldn't let himself do. ...well, at least making out, without strings attached, isn't the same as dating, right? That should be fine? He won't let his feelings show- not that he has feelings for Bucky. Nope.

    "Look, if they catch me," Bucky muttered, "they're either going to kill me or they're going to put me in a box with a little window and—Steve, I can't."

    Summary

    This is not Bucky's scene.

    Truthfully, most social situations aren't his scene, but particularly this one. He's closer to forty than thirty-five these days, and spending time in an overcrowded bar whose population tends to fall towards the early twenties side of the age scale is not something he particularly enjoys. If it was up to Bucky, he'd be spending his Friday night either in his office catching up on the Martinelli case or half-asleep on the couch, re-watching Criminal Minds and snuggling with his cat.

    But, since Bucky sold his soul over to the Devil in sophomore year of law school when he made friends with one Natasha Romanoff, he's here, stuffed into a shirt that is a bit too tight around his midsection and jeans that he can barely sit down in.

    Summary

    That spring Steve hears a lot about what’s big in algebraic topology from Mary as she talks a mile a minute in the car passenger seat, across the dinner table, under worn-out beach umbrellas or climbing up him like he’s still her favorite jungle gym though she’s almost too big now. What he gathers mostly is that, in order to classify shapes, mathematicians spend a lot of time trying to distinguish between differences that matter and those that don’t.

    And isn’t that the trick in life, thinks Steve: figuring out what matters.

    (Doesn’t help in explaining Bucky, though, but he’s not sure what would.)

     

    Or: Steve as the single dad from Gifted and Bucky as the DJ from Monday. Sort of.
