love’s not controlled by the weather (слэш)

Things have settled down in Steve's life. The team of Avengers is functioning, he has a lovely house in Brooklyn, and good friends to spend time with. Bucky is safe and free, well enough to get by on his own. In comparison, it should be a small thing that he hasn't wanted to spend any more time with Steve than he's had to over the last couple of years.
Steve should be happy, yet the winter has been wearing him down, and it's only getting worse after the holidays. He knows he's struggling, but doesn't know how to turn it to better. A Friday night in early January offers a surprise, though, in the form of Bucky asking to spend some time together.
