don't touch that dial

They're the two most terrifying people on the planet and wanted by several governments but they're playing house in the middle of nowhere and not a single person can tell. Bucky's used to being invisible and silent and he'd managed to hide out in Romania for longer than he should have been able to by living on cash only, working under the table, keeping to the shadows. This is different. This is a real life that he can have, out in the open, and nobody even thinks he's suspicious at all.

It's a very, very good thing that HYDRA no longer has control of Wanda Maximoff.

When they're out in public, he keeps his face away from cameras and his arm hidden; a hat and Wanda's tricks do the rest. He can take his time picking out food, plan meals, pretend to have the friendly banter that a husband and wife would have. It's nothing he's never had before and this kind of stability almost feels like he's stealing the life he was supposed to have after the war. There's some other version of him who died falling from that train and maybe it's that version that's getting a new lease on life now.

It's autumn and the leaves have started to turn, yellow like the sun and scarlet like Wanda's hair and there's a brisk wind that says there's gonna be a storm in a day or two. Rain or snow, he isn't sure, but it's Canada so it can go either way. He has his left arm slid into Wanda's to cover up that it doesn't hang naturally the same as his right does and nobody suspects a thing. Their neighbors aren't ever curious, there's no surveillance, there's nothing to worry about. It's a strange feeling but a good one.

"You know, if you can figure out how to explain it to my tiny soldier brain I would love to know how you managed to keep our house invisible from everyone else. Small words, though. I'm all brawn and no brains."

She doesn't lean back and rests her hands against the bedsheets. She wishes she would. If she did, that'd mean she can relax, but she leans forward and digs her hands into the bed beside her thighs. She'd rather be bowed toward Bucky than lean away from him.

While she likes the fact he asks, it gives her too much to think about. And Wanda tends to spend more time in her head than anywhere else, keeping to herself in the fear of responding to something that had been a thought rather than a spoken word.

"It's fine," she answers quietly. If she doesn't do it now, she might not do it later, and Wanda doesn't particularly want to lose her nerve. Being around Bucky has quickly taught her that he's perceptive. She's unsure if that's him or if it had been something he'd learned in the army that had been abused by HYDRA. She supposes being a sniper requires a keen eye and an intense focus. He sees things about her that she thought she'd hidden well enough from plain view.

She's already felt half-naked around him with each and every perception he notes to her, but there's a difference between emotional nakedness and her being half-naked and just in her panties in front of him.

"But don't rip it," she says, although she doesn't sound stern at all. "I like this dress."

Perhaps it's a good thing he takes her hands as she'd felt the impulsive need to wrap her arms around herself. Rather than bat his hands away, Wanda leans forward and threads their fingers together as best as she can. She doesn't look away from his face as she tilts her head to the side and smiles a close-lipped smug smile.

She might be out of her element here, but she refuses to lose what little confidence she continues to gain. She grips his hands and, with her eyes flashing a dull red without her realising, she telekinetically tugs his pants down his legs to bunch at his ankles.

"I prefer to watch," she says with a toothy smile before she laughs a little breathlessly. While she'll try and keep her powers as far away from the bedroom as possible, she can't help but have a little harmless fun. Bucky's already taken her by surprise. She doesn't want things to remain too predictable for him—and this is the only way she knows how.

But when she looks away from his face, it's to admire the slope of his neck and his broad shoulders. Her eyes linger on where his metal arm connects to his shoulder. The way his skin has healed has led to ugly scarring, but Wanda much prefers it to his right arm. It's a sign that he survived despite it all.

She reluctantly lets go of his hands and does as he suggests, looking at him as she does so. She sits toward the headboard and watches him, keeping her gaze on his face before she slides it down his body.

This isn't the first time Bucky's been naked before her. While his body had been fully dressed, his stories and anecdotes and what she thought to be tiny secrets had left him exposed to her each and every time he trusted her with a piece of himself. Wanda had never needed to pry into Bucky's head to know what he was thinking; most of the time, he'd tell her.

Except this. Wanda definitely missed this.

She doesn't want to stare. It'd be particularly gaudy of her. But this is the first time she's seen a man stand naked before her and look at her like she was something more than just a miracle object that happened to be created out of pure luck. Vision had been different. She always knew Vision was different.

"You're not going to take too long?" she asks, arching her brow slightly. "The ice will melt if you take your idea of time."

Before she can even answer that, he's kissing her again. Wanda turns onto her side so she can be closer to him and reaches out to faintly curl her fingers against his collarbones. She isn't afraid to touch him, but she doesn't know where she even wishes to begin. There's so much of him exposed. Before, she used to let him dictate touch, accepting his left arm looped around hers as she covers its bulkiness by almost cuddling it to her chest.

Now… she likes holding his hand. She knows it's not something she can do outside of the four walls of their makeshift little home.

As she arches her breast into his hand, she brushes her toes against his calf and plants her palm against his shoulder, moaning softly against his mouth. She presses down against the heel of her palm as she drags her hand from his shoulder to his pectoral, sweeping her thumb across his nipple.

If she's feeling inspired, he only has himself to blame.

She nods. "Just a minute," she says quietly. "Let me touch you."

Wanda glides her hand down his chest to tuck it against his hip. Rather than kiss his lips again, she nips at the underside of his jaw. If she lets him do as he wants, he'll never give her a chance to simply touch him.

And all she wants to do is touch him, even if she has to do so shallowly. She slides her hand from his hip to the small of his back and follows the notches of his spine to his nape. There's so much of him to touch. All she wants is to feel almost a century of life beneath her fingertips and feel it move beneath her hand.

With Bucky now on his back, Wanda shifts so she can twist her upper body and lie on her stomach against him. She traces her index finger along his right shoulder, pressing down hard enough to leave a temporary white streak in her wake.

If he's going to let her touch him the way she wants, then she's going to take advantage of it and enjoy it for as long as possible. She doesn't want to devour him in the same hungry way he seems to want to do so to her; she wants to take her time and see the way his muscles move beneath the various weights of her hand. It's how she learns to manipulate her power; she wants to be able to take her time to feel the movement of his muscles than rush and miss it and not learn the locations of the little sensitive spots that are hidden away by hard muscle. He's always been difficult to read; she much prefers to read this way.

Watching the movement of her hand, she traces the lines of the muscle in his pectorals before gliding to his belly. "Is this okay?"

Wanda watches his face as she trails her hand over his hipbone and against the side of his thigh. She doesn't think he'd lie to her, but she wants to see his reactions and be able to learn how to read him through another avenue that isn't touch or the little nigglings she feels in her mind before swatting every desire to pry away.

She's content to touch him this way and have his body react in ways that tell her where his most ticklish spots could be. Even after all the calluses he's developed during his time as the Winter Soldier, she likes that she can feel his muscles contract beneath her hand.

If he hadn't been such a stubborn pest earlier, Wanda would take what he says to be literal. He wants to be touched any way she wants to touch him—and while she suspects that's very true (Bucky seems so easy to please), she thinks it's only fair of her to press her earlier point. And she does so with a harder dragging of her nails against his upper thigh, stretching her arm to his knee before trailing her fingertips back up to his hip. "What do you want?" She smiles, "Because I am very happy doing this for a very long time."

Wanda's grateful that he's closed his eyes because she knows her expression isn't one he'd probably want to see. Now most likely isn't the time to ask him about his terrible experiences, of what HYDRA made him do over the years before she stupidly walked right into its arms of her own free will. But what he says only makes her want to doubly ensure she doesn't do anything to jeopardise the trust he has in her. She doesn't think it's overly deserved—he trusts her too much when she's done so little, and she poses such a threat to be the very thing that he's tried his best to escape from—but she selfishly doesn't wish to point that out to him right now. She appreciates being trusted.

"Is there any place you don't want me to touch?"

Wanda doesn't look down at her hand to watch her movements as she trails up his side before following the indent of his ribcage. She shifts against the bed so she can easily hover over him as she traces meaningless shapes against his skin. It's hardly erotic at all, but she figures someone as touch-starved as him might appreciate the reminder that there's no part of him she doesn't want to touch.

That's expected, and it only inspires her to move away from leaning over him and touching him aimlessly. She doesn't want his shoulder to be a source of pain and she can't fathom how to even stop that, but she hopes that what she has in mind alleviates it just a little. She's the one who wanted to bring his shoulder into this, after all.

Resting her hand lightly against his chest, she doesn't trace any other shapes against his skin. She shifts against him and kisses the skin of his left shoulder. She makes a point to kiss his shoulder, close to where metal and skin meet before she kisses the metal plate.

Trailing back to the flesh of his shoulder, she smiles against him. She scrunches up her nose when she suggests, "Maybe you should wait a little longer."

She's glad she can hide against his shoulder. She smiles and flushes, shaking her head a little incredulously. Whenever he speaks of her, he always says something that's nice—and it feels so unearned. She's simply Wanda. Weird, dangerous, and definitely out of place, but he's gone to great efforts with and without realising to make her feel as though she does have a place, no matter how odd it feels to try and slot into it.

Considering he hasn't tried to shrug her off, she kisses her way along his shoulder and to his neck. With him lying pliant beneath her, she's grown a little more confident to heed her impulses and do what she wishes to do—which is to touch him and explore him. Maybe make him go a little crazy. All she wants is for him to relax and let her take her time.

"I wouldn't say it's paradise," she murmurs. She nuzzles his neck before she finds his pulse and licks at his skin.

It's a good thing she's too busy alternating between kissing his neck and licking at it, or else she'd feel the need to rebuff him and his compliment. He needs to stop; he's becoming a menace and it's almost like he wants her to combust from the embarrassment of being looked at too closely. She curls her hand around his right shoulder as she nips at his neck, pleased that he's not discouraging her from exploring him.

She shivers at the touch of his metal hand. She shakes her head and doesn't immediately reply, a little too busy sucking at his skin. Now that she has permission, she intends to give him a hickey so she can see just how long his skin holds it before his healing factor kicks in. She hopes it's for longer than a few seconds. Wanda wants to leave a physical mark on him.

"Making it up," she says against his neck. She squeezes his shoulder and sucks at his skin. "I just want to feel you."

If she stays focused on the task at hand, she can block out all the extra noise. Since Bucky's started them down this path, the outside world has grown louder the more nervous Wanda grows. It's easier to ignore them all if she focuses on the fact that he's all talk and very, very pliable beneath her.

And it's easy to focus on what she's doing given how receptive he's being. For as long as he lets her try and mark his neck, she'll keep at it until she's left even just a sliver of a mark behind.

Wanda drags her tongue up the length of his neck and nips at the underside of his jaw. Feeling a little smug, she shrugs a shoulder and smiles against his neck. "Okay," she almost singsongs. And she happily returns to alternating between licking and kissing his skin before she finds her way back to where his pulse beats the heaviest. She sucks then, moaning roughly low in her throat. She squeezes his right shoulder again as she focuses her tongue on only that spot.
