A/N
Here's more of the story, and thanks to those that favourited this, plus Xanraxs wanted to see Neytiri join the team, so I couldn't help myself plus we know Rocket is more into Mira, hehe
In this chapter, Gamora's Navi friend, Neytiri joins the group and of course Peyer is curious about Neytiri and Drax too, despite having Mantis.
"So, what was it like living in Novacore?" Starlord asked Mira.
"Quill, for Groot's sake, leave her alone!" Rocket yelled.
"We're just curious, alright?" Starlord said to him.
It was early evening, in the Milano and they were hanging out and having fun but they were curious about Rocket's new friend just in case she meant trouble, but maybe not if she had been adopted by Novacore most of her life making Mira get it, since she knew that Rocket despite being one with technology, found it hard to trust otjers.
"Relax, I'm not here to cause trouble, plus a certain tech lover was lonely." Mira said surprising them.
Plus they were seeing Rocket quiet which surprised everybody, even Starlord guessing that Mira surprised him and was guessing that he was liking Mira, but too shy to admit it while in fixing mode.
"We should leave him be, alright?" Gamora said to him surprised that a blue skinned female warrior with a tail was on the Milano, but was a friend of hers from the pkanet, Pandora making Starlord stare at her like he did with Gamora making Mira roll her eyes at Drax and Starlord, seeing Rocket roll his eyes at the others
"That Navi girl's from Pandora, and a warrior named Neytiri." Mira told them.
"Yeah, my friend Neytiri is not used to our ways, but it's alright, stop gawking at her, Quill!" Mira told them, making Rocket chuckle at her yelling at Starlord, high fiving her making her giggle, seeing Neytiri think that Groot was a magical tree.
"I am Groot." Groot said, seeing Rocket get it, because he had hated Mantis trying to pet him, or touch him and now Anotjer alien female was thinking he was cute, making Mira sigh because she was the only one, that Rocket would let touch him
"You should leave him be, Neytiri, he may be a trash bandit like his Terran kin, but he has a bad mouth." Starlord told the Navi female, seeing Rocket go into his and Mira's room, since building things made him happier since he foubd it hard to trust others, hearing the door open.
"Hey Rocket, you don't trust Neytiri, eh?" Mira said to him sitting beside him on the floor, handing him tools since she liked helping him with his projects, putting a paw on his shoulder gently, seeing his cheeks go pink.
"You know what I'm like with new beings joining the group, except for you." he told her.
Mira grinned at this, as she knew that Rocket found it hard to trust others, but knew that he trusted her, which made her smile hoping that she could help him open up.
Later that night in his room while Mira was asleep, Rocket was lying awake in his bed thinking about things, because he cared about her and he did have trouble trusting others, after everything that had happened to him before he became a Guardian of the Galaxy, but he could trust Mira, because they were kindred spirits but felt love like feelings for her.
"I need a drink, to cool my nerves, as I care about her." he muttered to himself leaving the room.
He was walking down the hallway to the kitchen area, making himself some coffee, plus eating pellets, unaware Starlord was there making him wonder why he was still up.
"I have things on my mind, Quill, what's it to you?" Rocket asked him making Starlord sigh.
"I was thirsty, alright, Rocket?" Starlord asked him, guessing he was thinking about Mira.
"I like her alright, go ahead take your shot, Quill." Rocket said making Starlord smile.
"Geez Rocket, I like Gamora but you haven't made fun of that." Starlord told him.
Gamora grinned as she was listening to the two males talking knowing Mira would be intrested to know what Rocket just said, because she knew Mira liked Rocket leaving for now going back to bed, making Drax wonder what was going on.
