Being on the run isn\u2019t a new thing for Bucky. He\u2019s been out on his own, living in the shadows, for over a year now.\u00a0 He\u2019s mastered the art of staying off the grid and remaining invisible, even in plain sight, even with every three letter agency out there running facial recognition software. So Steve tends to take his suggestions and his word at face value on strategy and how to move, how to act, how to blend in.<\/p>\n

But even he\u2019s got to draw the line somewhere.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat are those?\u201d he asks, eyeing the packs of t-shirts Bucky\u2019s tossed into their cart. It\u2019s already loaded with socks, jeans, jackets, and basic toiletries, as well as a new backpack for Bucky to replace the one that had gotten destroyed earlier.\u00a0 Steve\u2019s not the biggest fan of these large, impersonal box stores, but today, he\u2019s thankful they can get pretty much everything they need to restock all in one place.<\/p>\n

Bucky gives him a flat look. \u201cThought the serum fixed your vision. They\u2019re shirts.\u201d<\/p>\n

You\u2019ve missed this<\/i>, Steve reminds himself. Remember, you\u2019ve missed everything about him, <\/i>including all the times you wanted to punch him.<\/i> <\/p>\n

\u201cI know what <\/i>they are,\u201d he says, digging deep for something resembling patience. \u201cBut we have shirts already.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bucky snorts. \u201cYeah, for me. Those are for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Steve rummages through the cart and holds up the pack he\u2019d grabbed for himself twenty minutes ago. \u201cFor a master sniper, you\u2019re not real observant there, Buck.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bucky just sighs and plucks the pack out of his hand. \u201cYou do realize you\u2019re not five-foot nothing and a buck-five soaking wet, right? These <\/i>-\u201d he shakes the pack for emphasis \u201c- wouldn\u2019t fit your pal Natasha, let alone you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey fit just fine,\u201d Steve protests, motioning at himself and the shirt he\u2019s wearing. Which covers him perfectly well, fuck you very much.<\/p>\n

Bucky sighs again, long and put-upon, and shakes his head. \u201cLook, I dunno what you\u2019ve been up to the last couple of years, and when all this is over, hopefully we\u2019ll have time to grab a beer and I can tell you all about my second career as a Hydra assassin and you can tell me about your second career as a porn star, but right now, we need to be able to move around unnoticed -\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c- Porn star<\/i>?!?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJesus, Steve, have you looked <\/i>at your chest in that thing?\u201d Bucky exclaims, waving a hand in front of him. \u201cYour tits are bigger\u2019n Betsy Schmauker\u2019s in that tiny-ass scrap you\u2019re calling a shirt. If you were a girl, you\u2019d be arrested for indecent exposure. I<\/i> can barely think straight right now just looking at you, pun intended.\u201d<\/p>\n

Steve feels his cheeks heat up at the look Bucky\u2019s now giving him.\u00a0 Like he\u2019s thinking about dragging Steve into the closest dressing room and bending him over. The only thing keeping Steve from begging him to do it is the faint, insistent voice reminding him that they\u2019re wanted men, and this is a really<\/i> bad time.<\/p>\n

\u201cOh<\/i>,\u201d he says, faintly.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, oh<\/i>.\u201d Bucky tosses the pack onto a nearby shelf, then cups Steve\u2019s nape, pulling him in for a quick, hard kiss that ends with a sharp drag of his teeth across Steve\u2019s lower lip.\u00a0 \u201cSo you\u2019re gonna wear some shirts that actually fit that ridiculous chest of yours so we can blend in with the crowd, alright? And when this is over, you can go back to showing off the goods however you want.\u00a0 I\u2019ll buy you the smallest, snuggest shirts I can find, and stand by your side while you flaunt what you got to everyone with eyes,\u201d he murmurs, with another kiss. This one softer, slower.\u00a0 A promise.<\/p>\n

Steve chases Bucky\u2019s mouth, deepens the kiss for a handful of heartbeats. Not nearly enough for what he wants, but it\u2019ll have to hold him until\u2026 Until<\/i>.\u00a0 \u201cYeah,\u201d he agrees, so dazed and turned on he\u2019s pretty sure he\u2019d say yes to anything Bucky wants right now. \u201cYeah, okay.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bucky smiles, and then turns back to the cart. \u201cGlad we\u2019re settled.\u00a0 Now c\u2019mon, we\u2019re on a schedule.\u201d<\/p>\n
