Summary
"Hey," Bucky says. His voice is so soft, almost intimate. And he smiles, too, almost shy in the way he's looking at Sam, with this little tilting of his lips and the sweep of his eyelashes against his cheek and the bluest of blue eyes Sam's ever seen. All at once he's struck with the most intense longing, with the urge to reach out and brush his fingertips along Bucky's jaw.
"Hey," he says back. Feels stupid with how tied his tongue suddenly is.
"Whatcha hungry for?" Bucky asks. He stands up straight, smiles a little more at Sam, and it's - fuck, he's so beautiful, and Sam -
Sam maybe has a problem.
(in which Bucky asks for help in dealing with his trauma, and Sam falls in love so slowly he doesn't notice until it's too late)

Summary
Abruptly, Sam wonders how many people have put a friendly hand on Bucky in the last ninety-odd years. How many times did touch like this mean pain and suffering, instead of someone trying to take care of him? And it makes his heart ache, the thought of how much devastation and roughness Bucky’s been through, denied this kind of casual, compassionate touch that Sam doesn’t even think twice about offering.
Experimentally, he pulls his hand back. Bucky makes this low whining noise that makes Sam put his hand back immediately. And then he watches the way Bucky leans into it, eyelids fluttering like he’s almost falling asleep like this. Doesn’t even seem conscious of it, like he’s gone somewhere else in his head while Sam’s patching him up. And it’s – Sam doesn’t know what to think, doesn’t know what to feel. Because this is Bucky, and he’s showing such terrifying vulnerability, and Sam –
Sam can’t help but wonder if Bucky still expects pain every time someone touches him.
(Five times Sam realizes Bucky is touch-starved, and the one time he really does something about it.)

Summary
“Fucking hell, shut up and go back to sleep,” Sam grumbles. “I got you, man. I’m right here.”
It feels like the cargo plane again. Feels like someone actually cares about him, and Bucky’s really not sure what do with the emotions it sparks in his chest. He’s also, maybe, just a little too tired to examine it too closely. Lists sideways again, and can’t help the way his head falls on Sam’s shoulder. Sam tenses, briefly, and Bucky worries he’s fucked up again – but then Sam settles back against the couch, exhaling a little amused huff.
“Sleep, Bucky,” he whispers.
Sam’s so warm. It’s almost intimate, even though they’re not touching anywhere except head and shoulder. But Sam’s so warm, and it’s closer than Bucky’s been to another human being in, like, seventy years. It feels safe. Comfortable. Sam is there for him, and he doesn’t care that Bucky’s fucked-up brain woke him up in the middle of the night. Bucky exhales, and all the leftover tension sighs out of him. So, he does the only thing he can do. He relaxes down against Sam’s side, closes his eyes, and lets sleep carry him away.
Five times Sam helped Bucky with his nightmares, and the one time Bucky returned the favor.

Summary
All Tony needs right now is a good night’s sleep, but with nightmares nipping at his heels, he can’t do it without his sweatshirt— Rhodey’s sweatshirt, technically, that had become Tony’s long ago, back in their MIT days. The sweatshirt had kept him warm, cozy, and safe through many bad nights, but now it’s missing and when Tony finds out which one of his teammates is a no-good clothes thief, oh, they were going to have words.
