“Now what the hell are you doing?” Gale’s smile is present in his voice, still low and rough with sleep.
“What’s it look like, Buck?” Bucky grins, taking another lazy bite of the orange, juice running down his fingers and dripping onto his toes along with the water from the shower.
Gale shakes his head in amusement, feeling his cheeks flushing in the humidity.
“You tried one of these yet? They just came in today.” Bucky asks. Gale turns back, only to see Bucky holding out the orange. Gale looks away, looks down, as the heat of the room overwhelms him. He and Bucky don’t normally coincide in here. It’s not like they’ve never ended up in the showers at the same time, but never like this. Never just the two of them.
