Prologue

angel shot: (noun) a secret code for women to safely alert a bartender that a date has taken a turn for the worse as a way to escape from the male (or female) on the date.

James Buchanan (Bucky) Barnes was a bartender at a small restaurant, so he's experienced the dates of many couples. Some of these dates were successful, the others... maybe not. So why when Bucky meets this one girl, he feels the need to protect her specifically?
