Chapter 4

Chapter 4: I'm not gay!

Steve's POV

It was the next morning, and I couldn't sleep all night thinking about what I did.

I kissed Bucky.

How could I do that? We've been friends for two days and I already ruined it. He probably hates me now, probably found the kiss absolutely disgusting! But the weird part, is that I liked it. Am I even gay?

"Mr. Rogers, Mr. Stark asks for you to join him in the kitchen," JARVIS said and I went back downstairs to see the whole place spotless.

I wish I could've blamed it on the alcohol when I kissed him, but I can't.

"Morning Steve," Tony said.

"Morning," I said getting myself a bowl of cereal.

"You know I have cameras all over the house except our rooms and bathrooms yes?" he said and I nodded already knowing where this was going.

"I was just casually looking through the monitors, when I saw a certain super soldier KISSING HIS FRIEND," he exclaimed showing me the video.

"Calm down Tony, it was nothing," I said.

"Bullshit! You like him!" he said and I laughed.

"This is not a laughing matter! I finally have the gay roommate I always wanted!" he said grinning.

"Not to burst your bubble, but I'm not gay," I said sitting down and eating.

"How can you just deny it! There is video evidence!" he yelled and I shrugged.

"You know what, this is normal. Denial is always the first stage of being gay. I was, trust me. I never pictured myself being gay, until I met Bruce. I didn't find any guy attractive until him. So when your ready to embrace the gay, let me know," he said and walked off.

"No one can know about the video!" I yelled.

"No shit Cap," he said and I rolled my eyes.

I wonder how Bucky feels right now knowing his best friend basically lip raped him.

Bucky's POV

"So, he just kissed you and left?" Sam asked while we drove to the mall to meet Wanda and Scott.

"Yes, and I can't stop thinking about it," I said sliding down in my seat.

"Dude, I knew something was going on with Steve. I've seen the way he looks at you," Sam said smirking at me.

"Eyes on the road! He's not into me, who would be? I'm practically a robot," I said lifting my metal arm up dramatically.

"If that's the case, you are the sexiest robot I've ever seen," he said and I laughed.

"Don't you have a girlfriend?" I asked and he nodded.

"Nope, single as a pringle. I'm fine though, when it happens it happens," he said and I nodded.

"That's a good motto," I said. All I could think about was Steve right now, he's way out of my league. He's got great hair, stunning blue eyes, and a great built. And two real arms. I'm just a screw up, with an arm that could probably hurt him without my intention.

"Maybe you're right," I said and he grinned.

"Don't get cocky now," I laughed as we got out the car and met our friends.

Being gay isn't a bad thing, it's 2016 and most people are. Hell, Tony Stark is and he was such a ladies man before. I just hope Steve doesn't think of me as a freak, plus he kissed me first so that means he must like me, unless he was just using me. But knowing him, he'd never do that to me. Like Sam said, I'll talk to him. No harm in that.

Tony's POV

"JARVIS, where's Steve?" I asked while fixing the arm of my suit that, thanks to Bucky in training class, was busted.

"Captain Rogers is in the living room, watching Sherlock Holmes sir," I went downstairs and saw Steve with a pile of junk food and he was wearing a just his boxers and a robe.

"Hi Tony," he said in monotone.

"Hey, what's going on here?" I asked trying not to raise my voice. I may be laid back, but I like a clean house.

"Watching some movie, has Robert Downey Jr. He's apparently very good in this," he said stuffing his mouth with Dorito's. Damn human Dorito.

"Meh, he's alright. So, how about me and you hit that new Chinese buffet?" I asked and he sighed and replaced the Dorito bag with an orange soda.

"I'm good, I have plenty to eat here. Plus, there's a chance I might run into Bucky and I rather not," he said.

"That's what this is about Rogers! Avoiding him won't help, just talk to him. I'm not going to have you sit here and be a couch potato. As your friend, roommate, and #1 fan-don't tell Scott-I won't allow it," I said and he looked me in the eyes, his blue eyes sad like a puppy.

"Ok, let's go,"

Steve's POV

I needed to get off my ass, and Tony was completely right. I need to come clean about what happened. It was a spur of the moment, I wasn't thinking straight, and I don't want it to ruin our friendship. Plus, me liking Bucky is ridiculous! We just rekindled our friendship, it wouldn't make sense. And I'm pretty sure he's thinking the same thing. He wouldn't like me, I'm not his type. He's more macho and willing to fight anyone who gets in his way, and there's me who would rather talk out the situation. But like Bruce says "opposites attract". He and Tony are completely different, so maybe I'm wrong there.

I made the mistake of letting Tony dress me. He had me wear one of my tight under armor shirts I use in training class, a pair of blue jogging pants and my running shoes. To be honest I looked good, but it's totally unnecessary to have me look like this.

"Stop fidgeting Steve, you look great!" Tony said while driving. I just nodded and played with the radio station. Jeez, Taylor Swift is playing on every one!

I miss the Doritos.

"Why are we at the mall?" I asked looking out the window. It's such a nice day, to not be outside right now. I may be really active being Captain America and all, but sometimes I want one day to myself.

"The Chinese buffet is inside," he said finding a parking spot. After he parked we both got out, and I immediately had people staring at me.

"Ladies please, I'm sadly taken," Tony said smirking and I just laughed. He's so into himself.

"Sadly?" we heard from behind us and I laughed seeing Bruce with Rhodey next to him. I continued laughing, clutching my stomach at Bruce's perfect timing. Tony is going to get it, and from the other guy not Bruce.

"Oh hey babe, you know I didn't mean that. I love you," Tony said grabbing both of Bruce's hands and batting his eyelashes.

"Yeah, ok. So, are we going to eat or just stand here like idiots?" Rhodey said and we all agreed to go inside. While we were going up the escalator, I saw Tony whispering in Bruce's ear causing him to blush. Gross.

"So, how was Hawaii?" I asked Rhodey.

"It was great! I had food poisoning on the last week though, that's why I wasn't here for the first week of school," he said and I nodded.

"Well, I'm glad you're better now," I said patting his back.

"Thanks cap,"

-----------------

Tony was acting weird.

Every time I looked at him, he gave me this grin like he was up to something. Whatever it is, I'm not ready for it.

"Stark! Is that you?" I heard from afar and I saw Sam grinning like a fool. I'm no idiot, this is obviously a set up.

"Sam Wilson? Wow, so weird running into you here," Tony said with the same stupid grin on his face. I just stood there, going with this stupid plan and waiting for Bucky to show up.

"Steve, lookin good my man," he said and I thanked him and Wanda and Scott showed up, but no Bucky.

Ok, so maybe I'm wrong.

Tony, pretending he didn't know, told Sam about the Chinese buffet and we all agreed to go together. Wow, I really thought Bucky would be here. Wait, I just saw him last week so why am I keen on him being here now?

"Sam!" I heard as we walked towards the restaurant.

There was Bucky, looking confused as ever.

"Bucky! What brings you here?" Sam asked and Bucky shot him a confused look.

"What? I drove us here!" he said and Tony looked like he isn't seeing his plan crumble.

"Hey Bucky! Sam's just being an idiot. I invited him to eat with us, but I didn't know you were with him. Let's go," I said and he nodded and Sam looked at me like he didn't think I knew what was actually going on.

And maybe I did check out Bucky's ass when I opened the door for him, maybe.
