Growing stronger, warm and wilder by gloss (X)

Fandom: MARVEL COMICS
Pairing: Sam Wilson/Steve Rogers
Length: one-shot
Author on DW: gloss
Author Website: glossings
Why this must be read: Sadly, there's precious few fics in Marvel fandom that focus on the closeness of the relationship Steve has with Sam Wilson. This fic does a great job showing them both as lovers and as best friends, but doesn't shy away from the conflict that makes them interesting. It's a particularly wonderful look at Sam Wilson, though the joyfulness of Steve Rogers shines through from Sam's POV, too.


Excerpt:

When they were done, there was nothing to see but the smear of Steve's face, laughing and bright, as he grabbed Sam by the waist and pulled him in to kiss.

Steve kissed like a teenager, eager, as if he might never get another chance. Thankfully, his skill had far surpassed that of even the most precocious teenager, yet it was still his fervor that impressed Sam the most.

That eagerness extended to everything Steve did and felt. Like he might never get another chance, like he wouldn't be able to survive regret.
