Rocket awoke on a bed that was not his own aboard the ship owned by the Guardians, The Milano. Rocket rubbed the drowsiness out of his eyes and opened them. As he did so he began to panic a bit seeing that the bed he was in was empty except for himself.
"Huh?! where did he?..."
As Rocket started to look around for any traces of life in the vicinity other than himself the door to the room opened and a familiar voice called out.
"Good morning Ranger~"
'So it wasn't a dream at least I hope it wasn't.'
Rocket thought to himself before replying...
"There you are Star Dork!"
He replied with his trademark ass hole-ish attitude the best he could muster to hide the overwhelming joy he felt inside to see Peter Quill.
Whose bed he was in after last night also going towards confirming his hopes. Rocket had for a while after they had defeated Ronan developed feelings for the cocky Captain of the Milano, and had just a few months ago gotten the courage to tell him... Then much to Rocket's surprise, and though he won't admit it to anyone except Quill, utter joy Peter felt the same way and the two had been together ever since.
However due to Rocket's insecurities about 'what' he is he always worries whenever he wakes up and Peter isn't there thinking it was all just a dream or that Peter had finally wised up and left him... Those feelings of worry were apparently clear on Rocket's face because Peter then looked worried as he sat on the bed next to his boyfriend and held him close.
"Rocket do you still believe I would leave you? we've been together what? like three months now? I'm not bothered in the least by anything about dating you and you should realize that by now man.."
Rocket simply nods as he nuzzles and buries his face into Quill's neck. Quill slowly let's go of Rocket and stands back up,
"now let's go Gamora is almost finished making breakfast and you know how she gets when we are late to breakfast..."
The two males think back on last time they were late when Gamora was cooking breakfast and even Rocket who could get shot at without flinching shuddered with great fear shown on his face at the thought of facing a pissed of Gamora again. Rocket quickly got his new reddish/purple uniform on and the couple exited the room and made their way to the hull to meet Gamora, Drax, and Groot for breakfast
