Summary
"They stared at each other a moment, water moving around them like a quiet promise. Then Steve glanced away, smiling a little to himself. “You’re kind of a sap, you know that?”
Bucky laughed, a short, surprised sound. “Shut up. You started it.”
Steve ducked under the water again to hide his grin, then surfaced with a mock-serious face. “You telling me I can’t have a vulnerable moment?”
“I’m telling you I’m gonna dunk you if you keep calling me a sap.”
Steve grinned. “I’d like to see you try.”'
