Trying to make it work

Peter knew Gamora loved him and they have been dating for over 2 years now but Peter can't handle that everytime they go on mission one of them almost ends up dying and he doesn't want to break up with her but he feels that is his only option. Ever since they've been dating now everytime they are on a mission one of them let's their guard down to keep the other from getting hurt but then they end up getting hurt themselves. He'd rather not be able to date her then live in a world where she wasn't alive. He was going to tell her it was just a matter of when and apparently his legs made the decision for him.

He walked into the bedroom they shared together and saw his beautiful girlfriend taking a nap when he shut the door and locked it he turned around to see that he had woken her up.

"Sorry didn't mean to wake you. I just wanted to talk to you when you woke up." He said feeling bad

"It's okay. What did you want to talk about." Gamora asked becoming curious

Peter didn't even know where to start he loved her so much and he didn't want to leave her. He really really didn't but he didn't think he had choice he didn't want to lose her.

"I have been thinking about us over the past couple of weeks and I just wanted to tell you something." He said nervously

Gamora stared at Peter and was starting to get a little nervous

"I love you so so much, more than anything but everytime we are on mission one of us let's are guard down to protect the other which then results in the other getting injured and almost dying and I don't want that to happen ever again." Peter said on the verge of tears

Gamora was listening to Peter trying to grasp everything he was saying she knew where this was leading and she wasn't going to let that happen.

"We have to break up." Peter paused

"I'd rather not be able to be with you then live in a world where you are not alive. Believe me I don't want to do this. But I feel like it's my only option here." Peter had no words left to say he couldn't hold back the tears that were welling up in his eyes as he spoke.

"Peter please don't do this I love you."

"Well then stop loving me."

"I can't."

"If you love me you would want to do what's best to keep me alive." Peter said wiping the tear off her cheek.

"I am Peter. Everytime I was laying in the hospital bed on the verge of death I wanted to give up I wanted to just die but I kept fighting you know why...because when I opened my eyes you were right there watching me waiting for me to wake up and it gave me the strength to keep fighting." Gamora looked down grabbed Peter's hand and intertwined her fingers with his.

"I love you Peter. We might get ourselves in dangerous situation but us being together does not make us more prone to death it makes us stronger and makes us want to fight harder." Gamora stared into his eyes as she tried to wipe the tears that were falling from his eyes

"We have made it work for the past 2 years who's to say we can't make it last a lifetime...our lifetime."

"I love you and I'm willing to keep fighting if you are. But I want you to promise me one thing...no matter what happens don't let your guard down I don't know if I can take watching you lying in a hospital bed again so promise me you will be extra careful?" Peter asked sounding very broken

"I promise you Peter Quill. I love you so much."

Gamora leaned in and kissed him for a good long time eventually they pulled away and they both just stared into each other's eyes for the rest of the time.
