Pretty Hurts - Erik KIllmonger x reader

Chapter 22

I woke up at 3:30....I already know Im not cut out for this shit. I need a blunt or something cause my nerves are bad. Erik dragged me out of bed and gave me a nasty green smoothie, when this is over I needa teach him how to cook. I showered and put on the clothes he gave me. I guess hoodies and sweats arent 'mission appropriate' so I put on the black cavlar pants and dark blue v neck cavlar longsleeve he gave me. While I showered and changed he went to meet up with T and gather our stuff. Apparently I didnt need to pack because he did all of that for me. That didnt bother me. It just made things alot easier.

Erik came back to our room and handed me a black duffel bag "Here you go, this is everything you are gonna need while on the mission and after."

"Damn this shit is heavy. What's in here?"

He took the bag from me and just decided to carry it for me. I could tell he was in super serious mode. He was all proffessional and shit...it was kinda sexy but its too early for allat.

"New I.D, passports, clothes, and some other things. I need you to be calm and in control today Y/n. There is some real ass shit about to go down and I need you to do exactly as I say...your life might depend on it."

I gulped and nodded. I feel like my uneasiness is making him uneasy and I dont wanna throw him off his game. "Are you sure that it's okay Im going bae? I dont want no opp shit. Linda and I are both gonna be there and I promise to behave but she is sneaky as fuck. I can feel it in my bones and something is telling me that we are all about to be surprised." He took my face in his hands and pecked my lips.

"You are safe with me baby, Ion trust you being anywhere else but with me. I promise you aint nothing gon happen. We are about to begin a new life, all this pain and suffering we have all been through is about to come to an end. I know you are nervous and I dont blame you. But trust me when I say this...I GOT YOU. I would die before I let anything happen to you. I dont know why we are the way we are but I know I love you and I will always protect mines."

That made me feel better and worse at the same time. I feel better knowing that he is serious about my safety but I also feel worse because I dont want him to die for me. Enough people have done that. I lost both of my parents for that reason...

I dont want him to risk his life or die trying to protect me. I would rather die than lose anyone else. NO MORE DEATH.

However I knew I needed to keep my cool so he would keep his, I cant be a distraction...

"I'll be okay Erik. I trust you. But dont you dare die! I will ressurect you and whoop yo ass! Because I love you too and I will die about mines just the same."

He chuckled and smiled at me pecking my lips one more time "What is that on your lip?"

He pulled my bottom lip down with his thumb "Where did you get that?"

"Last night I activated my necklace my parents left me and it came with instructions for going to Wakanda. I held this crystal to my lip and it just happened...it did hurt like a bitch though."

He nodded in understanding, before pulling down his bottom lip revealing a mark that mirrored mine! "How did I not know you had one?"

"It's a Wakandan bloodline tradition for future heirs. Anyone who has a child or is in the bloodline gets one. It makes sense that you have yours, that part slipped my mind not gon lie. As for you never noticing mine...normally I dont be kissing the lips on ya face."

"Ok....lets just hurry this up because I am horny and anxious now."

"I could fit a lil sum into the schedule and tell T to wait a few min-"
