Legends of Tomorrow Imagines

Mick Rory x Reader (Part 2)

"I think I'm in love with you and I'm terrified."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     "P-please..."

     You stare into Mick's eyes and plead for him to spare you. But he doesn't even know you. Does he?

     Mick looks down at the ground in defeat, and then throws the spear over at Snart's feet. "Well done Leonard." Damien claps as Snart picks up the spear, all the while keeping the gun on your head. Mick looks back up to you and waits for his satisfaction.

     "Well? Let her go. You said you'd let her go!" Mick gets infuriated and looks over to Damien.

     "Hahaha. Look, he gets so angry so fast. Hahahahah...No." Damien then raises his fingers and snaps them. Time became slow for you, but only for a moment. In this moment you take in three things: the saddening look on Micks face, the sound Snart pulling the trigger, and the sudden coldness rush through you. Then there was nothing. Absolutely nothing, but the cold.

~Timeskip or Flashback~

     "Ugh I can't wait to get back to the ship so I can get out of this, seriously this costume is killing me." You scratch at the fabric hugging your skin due to it's annoying design.

     "Calm down you big baby. Plus, you don't look half bad." You swat at Micks arm for his inappropriate comment. You, Rip, Nate, Mick, Ray, and Tolkien himself walk back to the ship but are greeted by Sarah and Jax stopping you instead. They run towards us and Sarah tells us what's wrong.

     "Guys we have a uhh...new problem. The ship it's...broken." Jax interrupts before Sarah could say more.

     "What Sarah means is there's a radiation leak." Ray and I both speak up in confusion.

     "Radiation leak?"

     "Yes and it's very dangerous, so we need to keep our distance if you could just follow me-" Sarah starts to walk away before Nate chimes in.

     "Wait where's Amaya?"

     "She's safe. We got everyone off of the ship right away."

     "Except Gray who's, working on the ship right now." Sarah and Jax exchange worried glances which makes you begin to be suspicious.

     "I thought you said it was too dangerous to be on board." Rip points towards the ship in questioning.

     "What's a little radiation for one half of Firestorm?" Sarah and Jax chuckle jokingly at the remark raising suspicion even more. But after a few seconds you overhear Sarah on the earpiece.

     "Ray, what's your 20?" You begin to realize the Sarah in front of you wasn't who she appeared to be when her lips didn't move.

     "Umm I'm standing right in front of you?" Ray tells Sarah in the earpiece, to which she quickly responds with telling us to take out the imposters. Rory knocks out Jax while Nate steels up and punches Sarah.

     After bringing the what thought to be imposters up to the brig of the ship you're greeted by a double of Rip, Mick, Amaya, Nate, Jax and Sarah. Rip explains how this jeopardizes the time lines by seeing each other, so your Sarah questions who's dumb idea this was.

     "Yours." Doppelgänger Sarah comes up and says.

     "I can't believe that even we would be so foolish unless something went terribly wrong the first time you were here." Professor Stein looks at everyone bringing up a very valid point. But it made you look around and notice something odd as well.

     "Ugh, I can't help but notice..." Ray starts but you interrupt.

     "Not all of us came back with you...What happens to us in the future." There's not a second Ray, Martin, nor you. Mick comes forward and laughs.

     "Well let's see..." he points at Ray. "Dead." Points to Amaya. "Dead." Points to Stein. "Good as dead, and..." he looks at you and stops. Your Mick looks at his other and then at you, putting the pieces together. You figure it out as well and go over to sit at the steps leading into Rips office.

     The rest of the time they all spoke was nothing to you. You couldn't hear anything but the sound of your own thoughts by then. You didn't want to die, you were too young, you haven't experienced enough. You got lost in your head for most of the time they were there.

     On the other side of the room though, future Mick went over to his past self. Past Mick was staring at you, worrying, like he always does.

     "Just tell her."

     "I don't know what you're talking about."

     "Yes you do. We're the same person."

     "Yeah we are, then you should know why I can't." Past Mick turns to face future him, trying not to raise his voice near the rest of the group.

     "Listen here. You didn't see what I did though. I had to watch the color drain from her eyes after the person who I thought was my only friend shot her in the back of the head. And I tried to save her but it didn't even matter in the end. So why don't you grow a pair and tell her how you feel before it's too late. Don't make the same mistake I did." Future Mick turned and walked away, leaving the real Mick to process his own words. He knew he was right so he slowly turned and went to sit down next to you.

     Mick sat down and tried his hardest to come up with something to say. "How're you doing?"

     "I just found out that I'm dead in the near future. How do you think I'm doing?"

     "Sorry, poor choice of words." He awkwardly looks around to try and ease the situation. But to his disliking it doesn't help. "Look I just... need to tell you something, just in case I don't get another chance to." You look at Mick and notice a soft expression that you don't think you've ever seen on him before. "I've never had someone to really, care, for me and to look out for me. At least not till I got to know you. You've been different towards me, than everyone else. I'm not just some dog to be ordered around, or all brawn and no brain. You showed me I could be something else." Mick stares at the ground to avoid having to see your expression.

     You gently put your hand at his chin and pull him to look at you. You hesitate for only a moment before closing your eyes and kissing him. He wasn't rough at all like you'd imagined, but soft and gentle. You felt like you could stay like this for hours from how comfortable and just right it felt. But you slowly pulled away and looked in his eyes.

     "I think I'm in love with you and I'm terrified." Mick relaxed and gave a small smirk.

     "So am I. But no matter what, we're gonna to stick together. We'll get through this. And everything will be okay." Mick wrapped his arms around you and held you close. He soothed you away from your thoughts and whatever the future held for you both.

So this one was done really quickly so I'm assuming there's dozens of mistakes I missed but I still hope you all enjoyed it. Hope you don't mind the slight changes I made to the story but I thought it was needed. Thanks for reading everyone!
