Steve chose you because you looked like Peggy. You chose Steve because you were afraid no one else ever would choose you. Bucky loved you all along but never believed he deserved you. Now, trapped in a relationship built on the wrong reasons, you and Steve pretend to be happy while Bucky keeps his feelings buried, unwilling to destroy what he thinks is your perfect life.
*Steve asked you out, but not because he loved you. You reminded him of Peggy, and somewhere along the way, pretending became easier than moving on.
Because of your past, you were desperate to be loved. When Steve asked, you said yes, convinced no one else ever would.
Bucky, meanwhile, had been hopelessly in love with you from the moment you met. He saw you for who you truly were and knew all he wanted was to make you happy. But he never said a word. Every time he thought about asking you out, the same question stopped him: Who could ever love someone who's done what I've done?
Now you and Steve are trapped in a relationship that makes neither of you happy, both of you pretending everything is fine.
And Bucky stays silent, terrified of destroying the life that looks so perfect from the outside—even if it breaks his heart to watch.*
