A Promise (Marco Bott x Reader)

*Chapter Eight*

"The sun is going down, are you cold at all." I asked worried.
"I won't be if you are next to me." He said with a smile.
Carefully I slipped into bed next to him.

Slowly I nuzzled up to his chest. "(Y/n), you are the only person I have ever loved." He said blushing.
"I love you too Marco" I said as I listened to his heartbeat.
We both fell asleep holding each other.

The next morning I woke up to hear Marco breathing.
I sighed 'Thank God he didn't die in the night.' I though to myself.
He was doing better but, I wanted to wait one more day before we started back.
So I looked around.

I didn't go far though so I didn't scare Marco if I wasn't there when he woke up.
I found a pencil and some paper in the bedside drawer.
Setting it down on the table I looked around to see a stove and an ice box.
The counter space and everything around it was a mess.

I carefully got up so I didn't wake Marco.
Starting to clean up the counter and all the junk I had pushed of in my rush I checked back on Marco.
He was still asleep, so I let him rest.

Hungry I looked inside the ice box to see old gross vegetables.
There was a cheese wheel that was still looked good enough to eat.
Then I decided to check on Marco again to see if he wanted any.
He looked so peaceful.

Then it dawned on me is he dead?
I ran over and gently put my head on his chest their was a heartbeat,
thank the Walls.
I just sat there looking at him.
He was rather cute but, that didn't matter to me I would have loved him ether way.
"I'm so glad your alive." I whispered under my breath.

I only wanted him to get better soon.
He started to move, sweat began to glisten on his beautiful freckles.
I place a hand on his forehead it wasn't burning up like I expected.
He sat straight up wincing, fear in his eyes.

"Marco it's ok, I'm hear you're OK." I say softly hugging him.
"(Y/n)." He said shaking.
"Yes?" I asked.
"Promise that you'll never leave me."
He said tears in his eyes.
"I promise to never leave you." I say kissing him gently on the cheek.

He looked at me smiled and said "I'm sorry I can't carry you like a princess anymore."
"Oh well, at least I can still hear you heartbeat when I hug you." I smiled giggling slightly.
The mood in the room was starting to become happier.

"Let's stay here one more night, I have a feeling their are a few Titans left and I don't know what we would do then...."you say worried.
"Sounds great" he said laughing.

I made a meal out of the cheese and bread, we ate happy to be alive.
After that I changed Marco's bandage and we took a nap just cuddling for comfort.
Then I ask "Hey, Marco?"
"Yeah." He replied.
"What happened, why don't you have your gear?" I asked.
