Groot was an idiot. He didn't speak like them, not normal for humans but normal for Rocket. Not because he was an idiot, no, the idiot part is how he cares for others even if they don't like him. It never made sense.
"D'ast idiot."
"I am Groot."
"Yeah yeah, you stupid Pokémon speakin' ass." Rocket muttered that last part. Groot hugged him from behind. The music that was playing in the background didn't help either.
It made everything more romantic in a sense. Groot hugging Rocket while swaying side to side, a grin on his face. Groot moved the hair from Rocket's forehead and looked Rocket straight in the eyes.
Those eyes...
They were of stars, not even stars, the whole galaxy. They were beautiful, perfect, mesmerizing. "Groot?"
"I am Groot." It made Rocket's heart flutter. "Dance? Uh...sure?" Rocket spun on his heel and faced Groot. Groot smiled and nodded. Peter saw this and smirked. 'I hate that smirk...' Rocket growled at Peter.
Peter didn't even bother. He raised the music volume higher and Groot took his hands into his. "I am Groot."
"I know where to put them, Groot." Rocket told him with annoyance. "I am Groot..."
"Sorry." Rocket apologized while moving his hand to Groot's shoulder and intertwining their other hands. Groot slid his right hand onto Rocket's waist and they started to sway side to side. "I never danced before or even waltzed." Rocket admitted.
"I am Groot."
"Yeah, but I never actually did well..this. I've only seen it in the cheesy romance films Quill puts on during Movie Night." Rocket explained as Groot then started to lead with his right foot, Rocket now moving his right foot back.
"I am Groot?"
"Tango? I don't know, Bud. This ain't the type of music that would go with Tango." Rocket chuckled. Groot nodded and they moved their feet back into place. "Salsa ain't it either, so let's go with normal waltz that you see in Victorian Era movies." Rocket told him.
"I am Groot." Groot lead with his left foot, then Rocket moved his backwards with Groot now then moving his right and they started moving. "I am Groot."
"This is kinda hard..." Rocket laughed softly. "I am Groot."
"How did you even learn to waltz?"
"I am Groot."
"Ah...wait-"
"Shhhh." Groot placed a finger on Rocket's lips and continued moving. Rocket shrugged and let it happen. The music was like white noise to Rocket. "Groot?"
Groot hummed, it meant he was listening. "Groot...thank you for...ya know, being there for me. And being by my side. I couldn't have...I couldn't have done everything without you."
People say, that loves a game
A game you just can't win
Rocket leaned on Groot's shoulder. Closing his eyes. He could feel eyes on both of them.
If there's a way
I'll find it someday
And then, this fool will rush in
Groot hummed softly in his ear.
Put your head on my shoulder
Whisper in my ear, Baby
Words I want to hear
Tell me, tell me that you love me too (tell me that you love me too)
Groot lifted Rocket's head up, his cold but soft eyes looking into his. Rocket leaned up, the gap between them was small. "Groot..."
G
root nodded slowly and their lips met each others. Their bodies swayed, the staring didn't stop.
Put your head on my shoulder
Whisper in my ear, Baby
Words I want to hear, Baby
Tell me, tell me that you love me too
Put you head...
Rocket sighed. "On my shoulder." Rocket sang as the song finished. "I am Groot."
"Shut up, ya Idiot."
"That was cute." Nebula said, her arms crossed with a small smile. "I have to agree." Mantis' voice said, her smile sweet. "U-Uh...thanks...I guess..." Rocket looked away in embarrassment.
Groot smiled and laughed. "I am Groot!"
"Honestly Groot, you should teach me how to dance like that!" Peter said laughing. Groot nodded and smiled. "I am Groot!"
"He'll teach ya." Rocket crossed his arms, with a huge dopey smile on his face. He stared at Groot, his perfect, perfect Groot. "I am Groot?" Groot asked. Rocket didn't want to answer with a cheesy "Just looking at the view" it wasn't im his nature. "You need a haircut."
Groot looked at his spikey hair and felt the back of it. "I am Groot." He agreed.
"Heh, idiot. My perfect idiot." Rocket hugged Groot and sighed.
Life was good, and better with him.
