Sam nods. Understands that better than most. Not a lot of alphas his age get that either - and are often looking for younger omegas to knock up. Sam is considered past his prime in that regard. And like Bucky, he took care of the whole issue permanently.
"So... you saw me, wanted to court me, realized you had shit to work through first. Got yourself a good support network, did some heavy duty stalking. Came back, decided to challenge my courtship, cause you wanna mate me and... take care of me?" A little bemused, but not mocking. Sam's just not used to that. Had to rely on himself and nobody else for so long. "How's that gonna look?"
He's not letting go of Bucky's hand yet. Still looking up at him, soft and open. Listening, too, very attentively. There's something so comfortable here. About feeling cozy in hot water with Bucky outside the tub just... talking about life and plans. Knowing that when he decides he's done becoming a prune, there's dinner waiting because his alpha prioritizes Sam's comfort over a fancy dinner experience or popping a knot.
