Lucky Misfire [for elans]

The parts of him that were practical and still very much tactically minded were screaming at him that this rendezvous was a bad idea. Bucky honestly had no idea who this Tammy girl was, and what she wanted other than what he hoped he'd interpreted from their texts. But he was a free man now, a person in a way he hadn't been for decades, and if he was going to make a mistake, it was going to be his mistake, dammit, and no one else's.

But it didn't feel like a mistake. Bucky had always believed he had good instincts with women, and his track record before and during the war seemed to bear that out. And Tammy didn't feel like things were going to go south. If they did, he'd be ready, of course.

The hotel he'd given her the address to was nice enough to be comfortable, but not so extravagant that it would make a stir, either with anyone who might spot him or the bean counters who'd see his expenses. At the knock on the door, Bucky confirmed through the peephole, then opened the door.

"Hi," he offered, waving his hand for the woman to enter.

The sensible and good girl part of her, the one that had been the valedictorian of her class and just starting college, was telling her this wasn't the wisest of ideas. But then again, maybe that was the reason she was doing this, to shred some of the good girl deal even if only she knew about it.

Sure one of her friends suspected she was meeting someone, she was after all working as her cover up story with her family, but had no idea who she was meeting. And well Tammy didn't at first, she had kept her promise of not google him, but she had friends and they talk and being in New York it was impossible not to hear of the resident heroes.

It didn't detered her from meeting him, but maybe she should have mentioned her age, she wasn't sure if that was going to be an issue or not. She was pondering about it, when she suddenly found herself knocking the door and being invited inside.

"Hey." Good, her voice didn't sound nervous and stepped inside. "Didn't make you wait long right?"
