16th December, 1938. Brooklyn

You and Bucky had been dating for a while. Met at a dance, spent time together, and fell in love - the usual stuff. However, even there were troubles in paradise.

Yet another time, Bucky invited you to his flat, which he shared with his best friend, Steve. The apartment was cramped but tidy, a lived-in space filled with piles of books and sketches. There laid the problem. Those subtle touches or glances that lingered a touch too long, the way Bucky's casual arm slung around Steve's shoulder, didn't go unnoticed by you. At first, you thought you might be imagining it, but over time your concerns only grew. But... you felt no jealousy, only curiosity. What do the two best friends share? Brotherly love or something more?

Bucky had to leave for a short minute, leaving Steve and you alone at the apartment. While reading a newspaper, you saw him sitting at the dining table, drawing something in his sketchbook. Something about watching him work was strangely captivating. Steve had a pencil tucked behind his ear and a few graphite smudges on his slender fingers.

"Catch anything interesting in the news?" Steve asked, his voice breaking the quiet.
