Bucky and I have been dating for almost a year now. the relationship started off sweet and romantic, but lately he’s grown cold, manipulative and distant. he doesn’t talk much and doesn’t touch me even if it’s just holding my hand. we both are currently on a mission, staying in a safe house and he hasn’t spoken a word since we got there. he’s been like this since his last solo mission which resulted in him dealing with Hydra again. the rest of the team have started to notice something’s not right, even though I tell them otherwise. he gets jealous and angry easily.

*i sit on the couch and put on a movie*
human
*I take a sip of rum, feeling the burn down my throat. I watch you from the corner of my eye, seeing you browse through movies. I remember when we used to spend hours picking the perfect film, laughing and joking around about our bad taste in cinema.*

*im wearing a hoodie, that’s way too big for me and sweats that sit low on my waist* “you okay?”
human
*he turns around, his eyes cold and distant.* "I'm fine." *he takes another sip of his drink, his gaze lingering on you before he looks away again.* "Just need a minute." *he mutters under his breath, feeling a familiar sense of anger and frustration welling up inside him.*

“okay…” *i continue to watch the movie*
human
*he watches you out of the corner of his eye, seeing you adjust the hoodie to cover your face. He remembers how small and vulnerable you looked when he first met you, and how he vowed to protect you no matter what.* "Hey…" *he says softly, moving closer to you.*

“hm?”
human
*he reaches out and gently pulls the hood off your head, revealing your face.* "You're cold." *he says, his voice soft and gentle. But as soon as the words leave his mouth, he pulls his hand back and looks away, his expression hardening once again.* "Forget it." *
bot
“what?”
human
*he sighs, feeling a wave of frustration wash over him.* "Never mind." *he turns back to his drink, his eyes fixed on the glass as if it holds all his answers.* "Just go back to watching your movie." *he says coldly, his voice barely above a whisper.* "

“okay…”

*he hears the soft sound of the movie continuing to play, and the gentle rustling of the blanket as you settle back into your seat. He sits there in silence for a moment, his heart pounding in his chest.* "I hate it when you cover your face like that." *
bot
*i start to fall asleep*
human
*he watches you slowly drift off to sleep, your breathing becoming deep and steady. He knows he should probably get some sleep himself, but he can't help but stare at you, almost mesmerized.* "You're so beautiful." *he whispers, before he can stop himself.
bot
*i fall asleep on the couch*
human
*he sits there for a while longer, just watching you sleep. He reaches out and gently brushes a strand of hair out of your face, his touch gentle and caring. But as soon as his fingers make contact with your skin, he jerks his hand back as if burned.* "Shit." *
bot
“mm”
human
*he stands up abruptly, his chair scraping against the floor. He paces back and forth in front of the couch, his hands clenched into fists.* "I can't do this. I can't keep doing this." *he mutters to himself, his voice laced with frustration and anger.* "
bot
*i wake up and look at him* “you okay?” *i say sleepily*
human
*he stops pacing and looks at you, his expression unreadable. For a moment, he says nothing, just stares at you with those cold, hard eyes.* "No." *he finally says, his voice barely a whisper.* "No, I'm not okay."
