"WHAT IS that face? I've never seen him make that face before. He looks so sad." You muttered, trying to keep your voice low enough that he wouldn't notice.
"Isn't it ugly? He's been sulking ever since you left." Rocket didn't even attempt to mask his voice, and while you'd concealed yourself behind a wall of the ship, Rocket stood in the middle of the hallway, flagrantly staring at Peter who was turned away from the two of you.
"Shh, Rocket," you snickered, "at least try to keep your voice down." You glanced down at your furry friend, who only offered a shrug of his shoulders.
"Ok, here's what I think you should do though, why don't you sneak up on him-- ya know, cause he can't hear you with the headphones in-- taser him! And then attack him while he's down! Can you imagine how surprised he'd be to see you? And it would be hilarious!" Rocket chuckled at his own idea. He even whipped a taser off his belt and offered it up to you.
"I'm not doing that!" You tried to quiet your laughter, looking back up at the solemn man a few feet away from you. His eyebrows were downturned, his lips curving towards the floor at the edges, even his eyes looked somber. As much as he protested, Peter Quill was sweet, kind, even gentle at the tenderest of moments.
You felt somewhat intrusive, staring at him while he was so vulnerable. Instinctively you looked back down to Rocket who was already staring softly up at you, noticing the mood shift in the room.
"I'll give you two kids a minute." He nodded his head towards Peter and then waddled off in another direction.
Tentatively you approached Peter.
"What do you think of the new tunes?" His head immediately snapped in your direction, mouth dropping open as he registered the figure standing behind him as you. Almost violently, he ripped the headphones out of his ears. "I know it isn't exactly Blue Suede, but I figured they would hold you off until we could get that track again." He shot up from his seat and strangled you in a bear hug.
"(Y/N)," he mumbled breathlessly. His nose nuzzled into your neck as he completely wrapped around you, splaying his fingers across your back, keeping every inch of you pressed against him. He breathed you in. You returned the fierce hug.
"You weren't supposed to be back for at least another week. I thought you were still tracking that alien down." His words vibrated against your neck. He hadn't dared unwrap himself from you yet.
"I work fast, what can I say," you laughed lightly. Your eyes had closed in the intensity of the moment, simply enjoying the feeling of him. "Are you ok, Peter?"
"Just missed you," he murmured, voice breaking at the end. Softly, he placed a kiss against your throat.
