Yelena was not nervous. She did not get nervous, even if she was about to have a big important conversation with a friend about maybe being something more. Even if she was pretty sure that she wanted more she did not get nervous. So whatever this feeling she was feeling was not nervousness but something else.

And so maybe she was making like… way too much macaroni and cheese. It wasn’t stress cooking it was just making sure she had lots of leftovers. Yes, that was it. And making sure that Bucky had enough to eat because he was a big, strong, kind, handsome super soldier who probably ate lots of macaroni and cheese.

She also did not change out of her comfy outfit of leggings and a loose top into jeans and a nice blouse just because Bucky Barnes was coming over. No she did that just because it was entirely practical to wear less comfortable but nicer looking clothes at a time like this. She was not sure how it was more practical but she was declaring it so.

If Bucky did not get here soon though she was going to start field stripping and cleaning her weapons just for something to do to take her mind off of this big moment that was definitely not making her nervous.

Bucky is nervous. He's definitely very nervous and he isn't sure if he can hide it. Being on a mission is one thing, but this? These are feelings. Feelings, along with a conversation, and he already knows how terrible he is at that kinda thing.

He tries not to stall, even though he wants to, but he knows it isn't fair to keep Yelena waiting. So he's quick with the drinks, grabbing something alcogholic and non-alcoholic. Who knows what she'll need by the end of this.

When he gets her place and buzzes up, he drags his fingers through his hair a few times, trying to fix it. Maybe he should have changed. Worn something nicer. Instead he's just in his usual long sleeves, jacket and gloves, with jeans. It's alright though. It has to be alright. This is gonna be alright.

If anything, they can just have a nice dinner together.
