I\u2019m not over this idea of Bucky being drafted.\u00a0 He probably got the notice weeks before the World Expo and reported to the nearest Selective Service office to argue with his new commanding officers that he couldn\u2019t go to Europe, he had a half-starved twig of a best friend to take care of, and who was going to pay the rent and drag Steve out of alleys and make sure he fucking ate? Sir, I understand, sir, but you don\u2019t get it. This kid\u2019s got a case of terminal stupid and I\u2019ve gotta look out for him.<\/em> But then he saw the salary he\u2019d be pulling in by serving in the Army, and it was more than anything he\u2019d ever managed down at the docks or working in the garage.\u00a0 It was a lot of money, and it wasn\u2019t like he was going to need it where he was going, so he took his uniform and went home to Steve.\u00a0 Bucky braces himself before he walks through the door, all polished new shoes and swagger with his hat tipped to one side and his sergeant\u2019s chevrons sewn to his sleeve, and tells Steve that he finally enlisted and he\u2019s going to go single-handedly save the United States, and he\u2019s grinning so hard his jaw aches, but inside he\u2019s screaming and trying to memorize the exact shade of blue of Steve\u2019s eyes because he knows that he\u2019s going to die over there, but at least Steve will be be able to afford the rent and groceries. And Bucky doesn\u2019t cry, he will not fucking cry<\/em>, because he\u2019s already a soldier, been one since the age of eleven and fighting a war against Steve Rogers\u2019s bullheaded stupidity for years now.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
