Bromantic Romance




Despite popular conjecture, romance doesn't have to be overwrought or over the top like a Shakespearean tragedy or a terrible Nicholas Sparks novel. Sure, there needs to be some intimacy to make it, well, romantic, but there are plenty of relationships that blur the lines between "friendship" and "relationship" in every way they can. In fact, your romantic partnership is just like that. It feels like you're dating your best friend, really, and in most cases, isn't that the best, most healthy thing? You're completely comfortable around them, and you never have to worry about being at odds - most of the time. You hang out, you bro out, you do things you both enjoy. And sometimes, you can even kiss or make out. How awesome is that? Maybe you were friends first and this is just a natural outgrowth of what you started, or you could prefer all relationships to be more bromances.

Of course, throwing a twinge of romantic love or sexual attraction into the mix and even the best friendships can get...complicated. If anyone can beat the odds, though, it's you guys!

We're rooting for you.

"Grapefruit. Cream. Pie."

This is probably not the first thing a guy should say to another guy in the morning, whether they're friends or lovers. Luckily, Steve has a cup of coffee made ready on the counter beside him, the way Bucky usually takes it, to soften the blow.

"I told you it exists. I found the recipe; I'm making it." This is a threat. This is a very serious threat. Possibly this is a recipe Steve threatened him with decades ago, while they were still living in Brooklyn together. Evidently it never got struck off his bucket list.

The look he gives Steve makes it clear he is not even going to dignify that with a response until he's had at least his first swallow of coffee. It's full of cream and sugar, but the caffeine still counts. Maybe the sugar rush is part of what does it for him in the mornings. Bucky's always had a sweet tooth, but it seems to have gotten worse since he escaped Hydra, as if he's making up for all the junk food he missed.

He takes several long swallows and stars blankly at the kitchen wall, hair a mess. Mornings are not his friend. "That... sounds like the most terrible idea I've ever heard."

Another sip. "And you've had a lotta bad ideas over the years Stevie."
