What If | Erik Killmonger Love Story

Say Something

I sat in mine and Erik's shared room.

I felt the rears run down my face, running away from the problems inside my head.

I held a picture from a few months ago.

I heard the door open but didn't react until I felt the bed dip next to me.

I wiped me tears and face the opposite direction.

"Why did you lie to me," I heard Erik ask

"I had to," is all I could reply

"Did you even love me?"

"At first...no...But" I shouted when Erik went to leave

"But I grew to love you. You were still the person I had known since the beginning. It wasn't a mission after a while. I truly wanted to avenge our parents, I believed in our plan and I still do."

Please don't make me leave. Please don't.

"I'm sorry Nov, call your superhero friends... I don't need you here."

Erik got up and pulled something from his back pocket.

A ring.

He handed it to me before saying:

"You will still be my queen but I can't trust you,"

When Erik left I went to my bag and pulled out a special watch Fury had given me.

"I'm done with you lot," I talked into the face.

I then got a phone call.

"Hel--"

"Agent I swear to God, do not fall into his plan." Fury spoke from the other end.

"No I'm done. I've lost too much in life to lose Erik too. I'm out, this partnership is done."

I grabbed the watch and one of my shoes and smashed it up.

"Agent--"

"It's Nov...and you'll be answering to me soon. I'm a trained assassin don't forget." I hung up and left the room to be greeted by Erik

"Not gone yet..?" He teased

"I'm going nowhere! I've lost too much all for the wrong reasons. I'm here because of you and our parents. Not because some guy with an eye patch told me to be here." I shouted

"How can I trust you"

I handed Erik all of my S.H.I.E.L.D. gear.

"Destroy it, I only want you and nothing else."

Erik's eyes softened and took my stuff.

"Burn it, all of it" someone took it from his possession.

He stood in front of me staring into my eyes.

"Are you sure about this?" He asked

I grabbed the ring from my pocket and handed it to him.

"If you are,"

He got down on his knee and asked the question:

"Will you marry me?" I nodded me head in agreement and we shared a deep kiss.
