Bucky Barnes (au) / Captain America / OTA

06 x 02 of course. XD

[They were laying on Daken's ridiculously oversized California king-sized mattress after a late-afternoon roll in the hay. Sunlight filtered through the floor to ceiling windows as it started to sink below the Santa Monica mountains. Contentment wasn't a sensation the mutant was used to but this....surely there was no other word for the feeling curling through him.]

[His hand stroked lazily along the line of Bucky's back. Post-coital cuddling wasn't really their game but he just didn't feel up for moving just quite yet.]

[iced_soldier]

[He smiled, closing his eyes happily at that touch. This was new for them, but he wasn't complaining.] Mmm...

[a_bastard_son]

[Chuckling quietly at the wordless sound of pleasure that soft petting evoked from Bucky, Daken's hand stroked the dark haired man's back a little more firmly. He was surprised at the amount of knots he found along the man's shoulders and spine.] You're just one big bundle of knots back here, aren't you.

[Something strange colored the mutant's voice. Not concern per se so much as curiosity.]

[iced_soldier]

Yes, because I'm sure you're so tension-free. [He teased, nudging the man before resting his head on his hands.]

[a_bastard_son]

[Smiling ironically, he pressed down on a particularly spectacular knot right below Bucky's right shoulderblade.] Keep this up and I won't be nice and give you a massage, Barnes. [Contrary to his threat, the mutant was already slithering away from Bucky's side and moving to straddle his thighs from behind.]

[iced_soldier]

[Bucky groaned approvingly when Daken straddled his thighs.] Hey, I ain't complaining.

I shouldn't love these two as much as I do. XD

[a_bastard_son]

I should hope not. [Of course, once he'd settled into place, Daken realized he had no kind of massage oil or even something like lotion within easy reach. Looking around, all he saw was the bottle of lube they'd been using earlier. It was oil based rather than water based and certainly viscous enough. Shrugging to himself, he reached over Bucky's shoulder and grabbed the lube off the bedside table. Pouring some of it out into the palm of his hand, he warmed it briefly between his palms before pressing his slicked hands down on Bucky's shoulders.]

Of course you should. :P

[iced_soldier]

[Bucky's eyes shot open when he felt slick hands touch his shoulders. He squirmed beneath the man, craning his neck in an attempt to look at the other man.] The hell are you doing? Are you puttin' fuckin' lube on my back?

[a_bastard_son]

Unless you have a bottle of massage oil hiding around here somewhere you'll make do with what you get and shut up. [To prove a point, he dug his thumbs down into the knot he'd found below the man's right scapula.]

[iced_soldier]

Gee, it's nice to see romance ain't dead. [He grunted as the man's thumbs dug into him.]

[a_bastard_son]

I thought you might see it that way. [Though Bucky couldn't see the smirk, it was evident in Daken's tone as the mutant leaned down and bit him ever so lightly on the back of the neck. His thumbs moved in slow circles to work out the knot carefully.]

[iced_soldier]

[He grunted again at that bite.] You're a real asshole, sweetheart. [Still, he made a small sound of contentment when the man began working at his back in earnest.]

[a_bastard_son]

I love you too, precious. [He scoffed quietly. The words were alien and strange on his tongue. Even in jest, he'd never uttered that particular phrase, it left him feeling disquieted and vaguely....vulnerable almost. Troubled, Daken concentrated on working the knots out of Bucky's back.]

[iced_soldier]

[Bucky's breath caught in his chest, and for a moment, he forgot how to breathe. The pet names, he was used to by then. It was just something they did. But those other words...they were words he'd never expected the other man to direct toward him, even in jest. They were words that nobody had directed toward him in over twenty years, not since Nat. They struck something deep inside him that was soon overshadowed by anger. How could this man be so cruel? How dared he say those words, even jokingly? Bucky buried his face in the pillow, fists clenching the sheets in silent rage.]

[a_bastard_son]

[He wasn't even sure where those words had come from. It wasn't like Daken was the type to bandy such foolishness around after all! The tight feeling was back in Daken's chest again and he suddenly found it difficult to breathe as he moved onto Bucky's other shoulder where he could reach around the metal coupling. He of course noticed the tension in the man's body but what could he do or say to make up for that stupid blurting of ridiculous words?]
