Peter had just finished eating dinner and was walking back towards the sleeping quarters when all of a sudden he heard Gamora from the bathroom.

"Mantis is that you...can you come help me"

Peter didn't know what to say considering she thought he was Mantis.

"No, it's Peter"

"Oh...babe can you come and help me"

Peter immediately rushed into the bathroom considering how frantic Gamora sounded when he walked in he was stunned at what he saw. There was reddish-pink dye half way up Gamora's hair but it was also on the counter, on her cheeks, and on her white tank top that was technically not white anymore. Even though she had dye all over her Peter still seemed to think she looked adorable.

"What are you doing" he asked curiously

"I am re-dying my hair because I noticed the dye was fading. I need you to hand me a towel and help me rinse out this hair-dye"

"Did you get a little happy with dye." he asked considering it was all over the place

She just gave him the sweetest smile

He moved to turn on the shower and when she tried to reach for the towel he stopped her.

"Here let me do it you'll get die all over the towel"

He then quickly turned on the sink and proceeded to run the towel under warm water. He went back over to Gamora and gently started rubbing the warm wet towel over her cheeks wiping away the dye. Peter couldn't help but noticed how beautiful and smooth her skin looked up close.

"All done" Peter said after he finished wiping the dye off her cheeks

"Thanks"

"Of course, baby" Peter said kindly has he stroked her now clean cheek with his thumb

Ever since Gamora and Peter had started dating Gamora had let him call her small affectionate pet names but she only let him call her baby in private. Gamora started to realize how close they were and took this moment to lean in and kiss him. After a long moment she finally pulled away

"I have to wash the dye out" she said walking over towards the shower

She then washed the dye out of her hair and left Peter in the bathroom to go change out of her dye stained clothes. When Gamora walked back in to the bathroom she was wearing one of Peter's old navy sweaters that was pretty worn and had loose threads hanging off of it along with her signature black sleep shorts. Peter had tried to get rid of it a couple months ago but Gamora called him wasteful and took it for herself.

"Nice sweater" he said chuckling

Gamora just smiled

"Did you take that from me because you really thought I was being wasteful or because you wanted to wear my clothes"

"...because I wanted to wear you clothes" Gamora said blushing out of embarrassment

Peter smiled "Would you like me to do a braid in your hair?"

She didn't say anything she just pulled out a hairbrush and a hair tie out of one of the drawers in the bathroom and handed it to Peter. He began brushing her hair and braiding it. Once he was done they both got ready for bed and went into their room.

Once they got into bed it wasn't long before Gamora fell asleep on Peter's chest. As Peter watched her sleep, starting to feel exhaustion creep up himself, he noticed her hair started to dry and he could see the beautiful dye work that she had done on her hair.

Peter chuckled silently to himself

"Guess she really is good at everything" he thought as he finally let exhaustion take over
