Summary
After the war, Bucky tries to lose himself in New York City. Gale finds him anyway.
-----
With a yawn, John unlocks the door and pulls it open, and that yawn becomes a squeak, which becomes a cough, which becomes “Buck?” He squeezes his eyes shut, rubs them with his knuckles, and pries them back open.
Gale is still there in the soft light of the hotel hallway, the leather of his A-3 jacket gleaming and crusher cap angled just-so, toothpick a taunt and temptation both in the corner of his mouth. He’s smirking and, if John didn’t know better, blushing as he gives John a quick once-over. John looks down at himself. Lipstick is still smeared on his nipples. Clearing his throat, he tugs the robe tighter shut, shielding his chest from Gale’s sight.
Blue eyes flick up to his, amusement crystal clear. John feels faint. Perhaps this is how a Victorian felt upon seeing an ankle.
“Hey, Major,” Gale says, his familiar drawl like fingernails over John’s skin, scattering goosebumps. John wants to shiver. He abstains. “You’re a hard man to find.”

Summary
The invitation was lovely. Thick and smooth paper, printed in blue cursive.
Together with their loved ones, and in bigger font under it, Marjorie Spencer and Gale Cleven. 11.11.45
But below it, in Gale’s straight hand, Would love to see my best man. Come as soon as you can. An address below it.
Bucky would go wherever Buck asked him to be. Be it in Wyoming or in fucking space, he would have made it there.
-Buck wants to do his wedding right. Bucky wants to do right by him.
But also: Bucky wants Buck to be happy. Buck wants Bucky to be happy.
And that is a little more difficult to get done.

Summary
“You’re a good story teller, you know.”
Buck can feel the heat of a blush burning against his skin. He shrugs, shoulders brushing his ears. Their bodies bracketed the center of the bed in an identical curvature, breaths perfectly out of sync. Buck inhaling John’s exhale, sighs out oxygen for him.
“So’d those kids invite you back for the next game?”
Buck smiles, and wonders again at the steadfast belief John held that Buck was just as likable and good as himself. “Nah.”
“I would have.” John says softly, “I’d teach you how to catch that baseball Buck.”
