16. Things you said with no space between us. 

Takes place between vols 1 and 2 

——

“Peter!”

“Sshhhh! Keep your voice down.”

“What did you do that for?” Gamora lowered her voice so theywere conducting their conversation in a whisper.

“Um… I thought it would be funny?”

“You thought stuffing us into a supply closet would befunny?”

“… Yes.”

She narrowed her eyes in suspicion, but was having difficulty remembering why that was a stupid excuse. Their situation was a littledistracting.

“Could you at least back up a little?”

“Not unless I’ve suddenly developed the ability to movethrough walls… nope. Sorry, Gam.”

“Don’t call me that,” she muttered, swallowing nervously.

Not that she had any reason to be nervous. None at all. Itjust so happened that she and Peter were suddenly stuck together in a verysmall space, practically touching from head to toe, with his arms pressed upagainst the wall by her head and maybe there were some feelings that she was trying very hard to tamp down.

Some she couldn’t help, though. She could feel his chestpressed up against hers; there was no stopping that. And his knees where theybrushed against hers, she could feel that too. She was keenly aware of his breathpuffing against her forehead, because she wasn’t wearing heels today. That height difference puthis lips nearly at her eye level and she was having real trouble stoppingherself from glancing at them and –

She needed to focus. So, instead of thinking about all theplaces they were touching and the weird feelings she might have beenexperiencing, she zeroed in on his distinctly guilty expression.

“What’s the real reason you shoved me in here, Peter?”

He sighed; she felt it blow her hair a little.

“I maybe, might have seen someone who may not be super happywith me.”

“Someone you had sex with?”

“Why do you jump right to that?” He asked indignantly.

She waited with an eyebrow raised.

“Fine, yeah, sorta.”

Something clicked into place in Gamora’s mind; they were inNova Records, and she’d seen an A’askvariian working out there right beforePeter had cursed and hidden them in this closet.

“The woman at the front desk?”

“Why even ask me if you already knew?” He grumbled, lookingput-out.

“Is she the one you told Drax about?”

“When I was saving your life? Yeah.”

She rolled her eyes; he loved to bring that up.

“You think she’s going to be mad at you?”

He shrugged. “It was a long time ago. Honestly, I thoughtshe’d have been fired by now. It did not takemuch effort to get the info out of her. We only got to second base.”

“What does that mean?”

“I don’t know, actually. It’s a metaphor I heard back onEarth. I’m pretty sure it was about sex. Anyway, all we did was –“

“I do not need details of your past escapades, thank you.”

A slow grin crawled over Peter’s face and Gamora did herbest not to squirm. That expression usually meant nothing good for her.

“Are you jealous?”

“No!” She hissed. She felt herself flush for absolutely noreason. “I just don’t want to hear –“

“Gamora’s jealous! Jealous, jealous, jealous – ow!”

She pinched his side to get him to shut up.

“Okay, you’re not jealous,” Peter said, but he was stillsmiling. “You just wish you were the one I – ow!”

“Focus, Peter.”

“Gees, fine. Spoil sport. But, yeah… she might still be madat me. I probably made it a little too clear afterwards that I only wanted toknow how to get to the files. I don’t want my past actions – which were stupid,by the way, and I am totally not interested in casual or –“

“Get to the point.”

“Right. I just didn’t want my past to affect our mission,and I’m afraid if she sees me, she might make getting the file we needdifficult.”

Gamora let out a long breath. “You stay here. I’ll go getthe file from that unfortunate woman.”

“Thanks, I – unfortunate?! Hey! The only reason she’s unfortunateis because she gave up the info before I busted out the good stuff.”

Something about the look on her face must have made himpause, because he cleared his throat before adding, “Which, again, that’s allbehind me now. I don’t do that anymore.”

“I don’t care,” she said. Why he thought she did was beyondher.

“I know you don’t.”

“I’m not jealous.”

“Sure. I know.”

He clearly didn’t believe her, but Gamora didn’t feel likearguing with him further. There was no getting through Peter’s thick skullon things like these.
