Valerian x Reader *DISCONTINUED*

Chp. 4

I woke up with a strange smell coming from the outside of the room. I quickly put on some pants and follow the smell. I look around the corner and find Valerian on the floor fixing something in the vent. I try and get a closer look and the smell got a lot worse.

"Valerian, what the hell is that smell? It doesn't smell very good!"

Valerian grabs something besides him and picks it up letting it hang while I catch a quick glance at it. It was a dead rat.

"How did that get on the ship?!", I asked waving my hand in front of my face trying to wear out the stink. Valerian turns around, and takes off the mask he was wearing.

"I don't know, but whoever was in control of the ship didn't do a good job of caring for it. It looks like we're the ones looking after it from here on out, (Y/N)."

"Jesus, first it's a man in a bed and now a dead rodent. That's disgusting. The smell woke me up."

"Me too. But I heard some weird squeaking coming from the rat and it looked like it wanted to end its own life so he ended up in the air vents. I just did a quick clean in the area he was in."

I was still trying not to breathe from its hideous carcass scent. So I went to get away from it and Valerian followed. I started to feel like this ship is bad luck for me but good luck for Valerian.

Bad luck for me by trying to get killed by a man who was trying to sleep and bad luck by waking up to a dead rats left over smell.

Good luck for Valerian by him trying to comfort me with him ending up with his lips on mine, and good luck for him by thinking he can make out with me more.

My life is just getting awkward by the day. Why me? That's all I ask and wonder. Why? Just why?

"Hey (A/N), while I was cleaning the air vent, this ship spoke."

I slowly turned around and put on a 'Really? You think I'm going to believe that?' kind of face and raised an eyebrow.

"The ship spoke to you. What did it say? 'I recorded you kissing a girl 12 hours ago'." And I meant to say it in a sarcastic tone. Because I wanted to sleep in a lot longer than I planned and instead I woke up to a rat.

"Yes. It did. And no it didn't say anything like that, (Y/N), it said----", but before Valerian could finish his sentence, the ship did speak.

"Hello. My name is Alex. Who are you two unknown travelers?", the ship spoke in a lady-like manner.

Valerian spoke for me, thank the Lord, because it felt uncomfortable for me to speak to something that wasn't there, even if it was there.

"We're not travelers, Alex. We're now your new owners. I'm Valerian and this is (Y/N). We're soon-to-be agents."

"Hello Valerian and (Y/N). Just didn't recognize two different users. I hope you enjoy and care for this ship better than my last owners did."

I thought I should be said something instead of 'hiding', so I spoke up.

"We will, Alex. Don't you worry none."
