Steve hadn’t expected a party. Bucky had come back to him only a year ago, he was healing, remembering, and it was the best present Steve could have ever hoped for, but Bucky had more than that in mind. With a little help from Steve’s teammates, Bucky arranged for fireworks, presents, and a cake (who’s violently American interior Bucky found, personally, hilarious.) But the best present came after everyone had left, and Steve could lay in bed with the man he loved, and kiss him, warm, and tender, and know he never had to loose him again.
Stucky edit 21/∞ Birthday AU for the lovely tirelipimpsesque for their birthday. Hope you had a wonderful day! Images not mine.
