[She doesn't think he wants her to. And once she lays eyes on him again, Grace may not want to. None of this was planned or even expected but he makes her happy so she'll do whatever feels good in the moment.]
Don't work too hard. You don't want to be all sweaty before you get here.
[She's aware that's a bad innuendo. But as Bucky has already demonstrated Grace doesn't usually think before she texts.]
[She's right, he doesn't want her to behave. Not when he feels she needs to let loose just as much as he does. Not when there's nothing wrong with what they're doing, right?]
I won't. And I'm a gentleman, I'll shower before showing up, even if I know you'll get me all dirty again.
[Look, he's be new to this whole texting thing, he doesn't always think before pressing 'send' either.]
[That makes it pretty clear to Grace where this afternoon is going to go. She makes a note to hop into the shower herself before he gets there.]
I like making a mess. You've seen my apartment.
[She's not totally chaotic, but she's of the attitude that "it's my place, I can leave stuff lying around if I want to." There are still home renovation supplies in the living room as she works every night on one project or another.]
But I like making a mess on you more than anything.
Can't say I mind that, at all. Besides, we can always shower together after, if you're up for it. Test how sturdy the ceramics on the shower walls are?
[Subtility went out of the door the moment she invited him back to her place, and Bucky has to admit that he likes this. No side-stepping and trying to figure out what she wants out of him.]
I'l be there in about three hours top. Sooner if I can.
[For a moment, he wonders how mad at him Sam would be if he just busts the doors out on the gang's operation and expedite the whole process.]
Take your time. You're always welcome in my shower.
[Grace has just enough idea of what Bucky does to understand that sometimes it takes a while. She's not bothered by it; she can always tinker with some project or just lounge in bed watching TV until he comes back.
It's not like he didn't learn his way around the place yesterday. They had been quite animated with each other.]
Stay safe. And then just show yourself to the bedroom.

All right then, I'll make sure to get stuffed mushrooms. I just need to wrap up something quickly and then I'll head your way.
[The 'something' being the henchman of the day. Look at him balancing the hero and personal life so well!]
I have a feeling we're going to end up eating our food cold, aren't we?
[He doesn't mind. At all. She broke the seal of his decades-long dry spell and he definitely can't get enough of Grace now.]
