Untitled Part 4

Looking down at your watch you felt your heart constrict, Zero years, zero months, zero days, one hundred and eighty eight minutes. Less than three hours left. Looking out your window you saw as the ship landed on the celestial head known as nowhere. Hearing a knock at your door you turned to see Yondu open the door and look at you. Holding the watch behind your back you smiled softly at him.

Looking inside the small room Yondu saw her and smiled. "Hey there darlin'. I'm going to go make a trade with one of the dealers here so if ya want how about goin' and hanging out around Kraglin and da boys and later on tonight I can show ya yer ship, got it all done last night." he said with a crocked smile. It had been a long couple of months fixing her ship back to a working manner but now he had it done and was excited to show it to her. Seeing her nod he grinned, "Alright then I'll meet ya at the bar when i's through." he said before leaving with a wink.

Going to the tradesmen with a few of his men he walked up to the counter and gave him the pieces he had acquired to sell.

"Alright Yondu this should be enough to cover those parts I let you get in advance." The tradesman said with a grunt.

"Wha...hold up. This is more than enough to make up for them dar' parts plus some extra credits ta go wit it." Yondu said.

"Consider it interest." the man said before walking away.

Yondu felt his eyes begin to glow and his blood boiling as he went to go after the man. "You ain't gonna jip me..." he growled but the man quickly shut the

gate down before Yondu and his men+ could enter. Slamming his fist up against the grate he growled.

"You bought those parts for that girl! She was supposed ta be payin' us for finding that damn ship and we ain't seen a single credit for it. Now the bitch got you to fix it for her using your own fucking credits and we are screwed. You let that girl use you!..." Molk said.

Turning towards the man Yondu clenched his jaw. "You best watch whos you talkin' to like that..." he started but was cut off.

"No Yondu, That girl got you wrapped around her finger. Was she even going to pay you?! She's using you! She don't care about you, She don't lo..." Molk said but when a whistle filled the air the man dropped dead to the ground.

Letting out quick heavy breaths Yondu glared at the rest of the men with red eyes. "Anybody else got somethin' they wanna say?!" he growled and they all quickly shook their heads. Without another word he left them there to go find y/n. His temper was raging and the thought of Molk being right would not leave his head.

At the bar you sat in the corner by yourself. You were shaking with worry. You loved Yondu, you knew this much to be true but did he feel the same. You had never told him the truth of why you left your planet, whenever the conversation came up you would always find a way of changing it. You didn't want him to feel pressured to care about you. You wanted him to love you because he truly felt it. But now it seemed you were running out of time. Having a hard time breathing you stood and decided to go get some fresh air. Going out the back of the bar you stood in the open where no one was at. Closing your eyes you leaned your head back against the side of the building. You had to tell him the truth. At that time you heard a door slam and looked over to see Yondu coming over to you. You gave him a smile at first but then saw the anger on his face and furrowed your brows, "Yondu wha..." You didn't get another word out before he grabbed the front of your shirt and slammed you up against the side of the building making a throb of pain coarse through your back.

"You using me! I find and fix your ship while you pretend to care about me! Were ya ever gonna pay me or did you just plan on making me fall for ya then runnin' off!? I'm so stupid! You almost had me girl!" He yelled in her face. Giving a whistle his arrow flew from his holster and aimed at her head. The Centaurian saw true fear on her face, tears began rolling down her cheeks making him give a growl before dropping her to the ground. Looking at her on the ground at his feet he felt his upper lip twitch before turning on heel and going to walk away.

"I love you." you whispered out in a sob. Seeing him stop you looked to see him give a dark chuckle and shake his head before walking back into the bar. When the door slammed shut you felt your body jump and your lip begin to quiver. Your whole body seemed to shake as you sat there on the ground where he had left you. Tears fell from your eyes like rivers and after a while you pulled yourself up off the ground and stumbled out into the busy street. Making your way back to Yondu's ship you went to your room and packed your things. You couldn't stop the sobs that left your mouth when you grabbed your bag and headed towards your ship. Opening the hanger door you looked at the shiny ship that Yondu had fixed. Looking down you pulled your watch from your pocket and watched as the reader turned to all zeros. You heart felt like it was breaking into as you sat the watch on the floor and boarded your ship. Going to the pilots seat you started the engines and backed out of his ship. Once you were in space you typed in the coordinates for your home. Taking out your card with your credits on it you swiped it through the machine on your dock. Opening the file you transferred all the money you had into Yondu's account. Pushing the stick forward you felt the ship start heading home and walked back to the small bed on the ship. Laying down you curled up on the covers and cried. You were so close, you had found your mate. You had found someone you loved but he didn't love you. Everyone was right you didn't have a mate. Feeling that clenching in your heart you buried your face in your hands and sobbed.

Hours had passed by since Yondu had left her outside. He had went back into the bar to drink his sorrows away. He had been so stupid, He had actually thought he had found his mate. He had told her things that no one knew about him and for what for her to use him. It was funny he still had that aching feeling in his chest from earlier. Drinking down the rest of his drink he pulled out his tablet to check to see if he had enough credits left to buy another drink. Opening the account he coughed up what drink was till in his mouth. Looking at the account he saw it to have more money in it than he had ever had. Knotting his brows he jumped up from his seat and ran towards where his ship was. Pushing open the door he looked in to see the hanger empty. His breath picked up as he walked over and saw a gold watch on the floor. Bending down he picked it up and opened it to see Zero years, Zero months, Zero days, Zero minutes. Furrowing his brows he looked up to where her ship used to be and felt the pain in his chest grow. "Y/n?"
