10:56pm

Everybody was asleep. Well everyone thought everybody was asleep. Rocket was manufacturing down in the common space, which was just behind the cockpit. Drax had stolen Quills walkman and was giggling whilst listening to it in bed. Nebula stared at the ceiling enjoy the silence, she was staying in the guest 'room' which was really just a fold down bed in the middle of the corridor. She didn't mind though, it allowed her to be aware of any noise. The only people passed out asleep were Mantis and Groot, who were mid dreaming.

Peter had barely had an hours sleep for months now, he stayed up biting the skin in the corner of his mouth. Overthinking. But tonight he sat in the corner of his room relieved. Taking deep breathes to the sound of his zune. After all of todays glory he still couldn't understand why he was upset. I mean they'd succeeded right? They'd got Gamora and she was safe. But that didn't explain the tears running down his face, the uncontrollable tears. He had cried enough these past few months to end water shortages but they just seemed to never stop. He was so overcome with the music blaring in his ears and the droplets spilling onto them he didn't notice the figure behind his door.

Gamora couldn't sleep. But who could these days. Unlike the rest of the crew she had a reason to be up, a reason to have nightmares. She couldn't stay put in this room anymore, this room that was hers but didn't belong to her. It was her taste her personality but not 'her'. The daughter of thanos swiftly opened the door making no trace of noise, she crept along the corridor and heard the bellowing cackles of drax, she breathed a little louder now knowing that there was other noise, but as she got further into the corridor she heard a softer sound. A painful sound. It replicated a baby, the tears were innocent and confused, not diluted by the torture of the galaxy. It was coming from Quills room. Gamora stepped to the edge of the floor making sure the metal grates were hushed. Her smooth hair fell onto his door, it was slightly ajar so she could just make out the person siting on a trunk. It was Peter. Head in hands crying more violently now. Tears overflowed his palms, the green lady felt a pang in her heart. It felt like a hole, as she watched this man hypnotised by emotions , she questioned going in. She didn't realise how badly this past self of hers had impacted his life, how much she had warmed him and brought happiness. Damn, good on her.

Gamora decided to stay put, she didn't want to create a bigger situation. But she watched the terran for a couple more minutes almost fascinated that someone cared so dearly for her. She still had in the back of her mind if he was actually crying about her. But who wouldn't be, i mean look at her. With hair as smooth and luxurious as rubies, skin with emerald tints, her eyes lay a sexy but controlled look on you. No wonder Quill fell in love. The leather that hugged her body was cold and heartless, just like the deadliest woman in the galaxy .

'Whatever' She thought to herself. 'I'll get out his way in the morning and he'll just get over me, right?' She sounded unsure to herself.

There was no way she wanted anything to do with him, no matter how bad she felt or how much he cried. It might've been she just couldn't imagine it or it could've been the fact that she didn't deserve it. Why should she get love? When every person that rotted in their grave from her actions had to sit endlessly alone. It wasn't fair.

'Dammit.' She muttered and hoped back to her room, shutting the door and looking at the view.

Peter was right, it was pretty. The purple and pink colours jumped out, they were contrasted by the midnight blue sky that the whole thing looked surreal. She spent the whole night with the light bouncing into her eyes gazing out into the universe.
