Summary: Seeing double…double the Rick, double the- …Morty. What did you think I was going to say, broh? (≖⩊≖)

“I’m surprised you made it this long.” He smirks down at you. Not even offering a hand to help you up, of course.

“No thanks to you.” Shooting him a glare, you push yourself up off the ground. He doesn’t even bother to take a step back to give you space— just looms over you as you stand to your full height.

“Don’t be like that.” He steps closer into your space. “I know you missed me.” You wanted to smack that shit-eating smirk off his face.

“Not really.” You say through gritted teeth. “Where are they?”

“Preoccupied.”

“That doesn’t answer my question.” He smirks, eyes trailing up your body.

“I’m surprised he let you live. What’d you do, baby? Flash your tits? Sweet talk him?” You don’t take the bait. “I saw him a while ago, you know? Showed up at one of my space stations, guns blazing.” He steps even closer, forcing you to take a step back, or bend at an uncomfortable angle. “Imagine my surprise when I bring you up….” Another step and your back hits the railing behind you and his arms come forward, gripping the metal to cage you in. “…and find out you’re still alive.” He whispers the last part— hot breath in your ear and if you didn’t know any better, you’d think he sounded…relieved. But there’s no way in hell that was the case.

You saw his hand lift then, and thought to yourself ‘this is it— he’s going to kill me now’ you closed your eyes and braced for the worst. It never came. Instead, a hand— gentler than you’d even felt it, tucked a piece of hair behind your ear. Your eyes shot back open and met his. He was looking down at you, eyes roving across your lips and face. He seemed to be contemplating something.

His eyes flit over your shoulder and that devious smirk was back. He pressed himself flush against you, the railing digging into your back. One hand snaking up your back to tangle into your hair, keeping you from turning around and the other gripping the railing as he leaned over it.

“Why am I not surprised? Nice of you to join us, but we’re a bit busy right now.” Your eyes widen. Rick was here— alive.

“Y/n!” Morty calls your name from below. Prime tightens his hold on your hair, pulling you into him as he steps away from the railing.

“Get your fucking hands off her!” Rick’s voice echos from below.

“C’mon, babe. We have guests.” He moves further away from the ledge, out of Rick and the Morty’s line of site. He releases your hair, only to wrap that arm around your waist and tug you up against him instead— bringing your hands up to brace yourself from the impact of hitting his chest.

Rick is the first one to make it to the upper platform, gun raised, eyes wild. When he sees you though, he falters. His eyes flit between you and Prime— how you’re tucked up under his arm, pressed against his chest. You can see in real time, the doubt creeping back in.

“Rick…” you plead with C-137 as you try to push away from Prime, but he only holds you tighter.

“Look, baby, it’s your knight in a puke-coveted lab coat.” Prime mocks. “You know, I’d ask what it’s like to lose two women to me, but this one was never yours to begin with.” You can tell that that jab landed hard.

“Don’t listen to him, Rick. That’s not true. I lo-.”

“Alright,” Prime interrupts. “Enough of that. Let’s not say something we don’t mean. This guy left you in the hands of his enemy for an entire month— didn’t even try to find you, and you want to tell him you love him?” He grabs your chin and turns your head at an uncomfortable angle to be face to face with him. “Come on, y/n, you’re smarter than that.” You give him a withering glare, but he just smirks down at you. Distracted by you, the shot from C-137 nearly took Prime’s ear off and forced him to release you, stepping away, holding up his own weapon then stepping towards a nearby control panel. You took the opportunity to run towards safety— towards your Rick, but he turned his blaster on you. You froze in your tracks, hurt in your eyes and in your heart. You could see the inner battle in his own eyes, too much conflicting data on whether he should trust you or not.

His Morty, though, didn’t hesitate. He ran straight to you, embracing you tightly. You were relieved that he was alright, and that he didn’t believe Prime’s act. Because, that’s all it was, an act. Right? There was but a moment for Rick to make up his mind before chaos ensued.

The battle was destructive to say the least. The structure of the space station was crumbling around you. At some point, you had been knocked out. It’s a wonder that none of the debris had crushed you.

“Hey.” Your Morty’s foot nudges your side and gets your attention. You follow his foot up to his face and he seems relatively intact. You let out a sigh of relief then wince, okay, maybe something did get you. You take Morty’s outstretched hand and he helps you up. Scanning the rest of the wreckage, he tugs you along. “They’re fine. Just unconscious too.”

“Ah.” You hum then face forward. “Where are we going?” He doesn’t answer, leading you into Prime’s main control room— where the man himself sits, restrained to his own chair. Bloody and broken…there’s something that flashes across his face, only for a moment, when he looks up at you.

Defeat.

It’s soon wiped away, however, and his signature smirk is plastered back in its place.

“Figured you’d want to talk to him before I wake the other Rick up.” Morty’s leaning against the doorframe, adjusting his eyepatch nonchalantly.

“Thank you.” You take a step closer to Prime. “Give us a minute, hun?” There’s a long pause, then the door closes behind him. Now it’s just you and him.

“Damn, baby. I-”

“Rick.” You cut him off and he actually shuts up, his face falls— neutral, unreadable. You look around the room and spot an extra jacket thrown haphazardly on a shelf. You tug it off the shelf and into your hands, using it to gently wipe away the blood and grime from his face. You did love him once…it was the least you could do before Rick got his hands on him.

Now able to see out of both eyes, instead of one being caked in dried blood, he looks at you, really looks. The most real expression you’ve ever seen on his face.

“You know…” his voice is softer now. He tries to bring his hand up, but then remembers that he’s bound and huffs. “I’m starting to realize that maybe I was…” he pauses like it physically chokes him to admit this. “I was wrong.” His eyes never leave yours. “I should’ve treated you better.” He whispers that last part, just for you to hear. There’s a resignation in his voice, like he knows he’s not getting out of this one. But he could just be trying to manipulate you.

“I’m not going to help you escape.”

“I know. I mean what I said.” His eyes flit behind you for a moment then back. “Tell me, do you really love that guy? Or were you just with him to get back at me?” You fold that extra jacket over your arm, smoothing it down with your hand before you look at him again.

“I love him. I didn’t mean for it to happen. At first, I thought it was because he was…you, but it’s him that I love. Even if he is a massive dick.” His eyes look behind you again then back to you.

“Well, as long as you’re happy.” You just look at him for a moment and set the extra jacket on his desk. Before turning to leave, you brush his hair out of his face.

“Goodbye, Rick.”

“Baby, you were never replaceable.” He smirks and playfully nips at your fingers. You roll your eyes and turn to leave, only to find Rick standing in the doorway, you wondered how long he had been standing there— surprised he even let you finish your conversation. His eyes don’t leave Prime as you pass by, door closing behind you. You would rather not hear or see what was about to happen in that room, so instead, you collect your Morty’s and wait.

Sorry this took so long!!! I was liiiiiittle espresso depresso. There will be ONE MORE chapter after this one! It might be a little shorter, might be a little longer, might be a little spicy, I do not know. What I do know is: I’m very thankful for all of the love this is received. <3
