This choice: She accepts the challenge (RESERVED) • Go Back...Chapter #9She accepts the challenge (RESERVED) by: Writer1990   ”You're on, Starlord” Gamora replied, smirking.
Quill signalled the bartender to bring the drink over and grabbed two shot glasses. He placed one in front of each of them a filled them up with whatever the liquor was.
”You're about to go down Gamora, ” Quill said, ready to start.
”We’ll see about that” Gamora poked back at him.
They raised their glasses to the other and downed it. It tasted bitter and very strong, but not strong enough for Gamora to lose. She looked to Quill, who seemed to have shrugged it off just as quick, if not quicker than her.
The bartender poured another shot. They locked eyes and drank it fast. Another. And another. Soon enough, four shots had blurred into several, but neither opponent had given in yet.
”Three... T-two. One go!” Quill managed to say, slurring his words.
”I-I can't. You... Youu win” Gamora struggled to say.
”Woo! Haha! I, I am the b-best!” Quill responded, celebrating with another shot.
”N-no no Peter, no, no more drink,” Gamora said, trying to stop Peter from overdrinking.
”Why?! I-I won?” he exclaimed, a little annoyed that someone was stopping his fun. ”Is it be-because you Love mee?”
”Wh-what if it, if it was?” Gamora said, unable to control herself.
Quill leaned over to her and kissed her. It would have been more romantic had neither of them been drunk, making it a very sloppy kiss. But it was a kiss nonetheless. And Gamora returned the favour, kissing him back as well. They stopped for a second and locked eyes.
”The ship?” they both asked simultaneously.
They got up and ran drunkenly to the ship, stopping for a bout of random giggling or vomiting every now and again. Eventually, the Benatar came into view and the two figures stumbled up the ramp, undressing as they went. They kissed passionately, stopping to kiss before reaching Peters bedroom. Gamora pushed him down onto the bed, ready to go.

Gamora woke up with a thumping headache pounding in her head. She tried opening her eyes but the lights were too bright for her, so they remained closed. She rolled onto her side groggily, bumping into something. Annoyed she tried to push it away before it grunted back at her.
”Stop it, I'm awake!” she heard Peter groan.
If she was in bed with Peter and had been near blackout drunk the night before, then that meant- her train of thought was cut off by the overwhelming urge to vomit. She rushed out of bed into the bathroom and started chundering into the toilet.
”Lightweight...” Peter mumbled.
She would have responded, but another wave of vomiting forced her down again. She had never felt the need to vomit this much. Maybe she was just a lightweight.
”Peter, what happened last night?” she asked, her voice croaking.
”Put two and two together” He grunted, still half asleep.
Gamora blushed with embarrassment. Sure she had wanted this, and still did, but doing it drunk? That was less than ideal. ”Peter no one hears of this, Ok?”
He grumbled something unintelligible in response.
”Peter please!” she said, before vomiting again.
”Yes ok! Fine” he said.
Gamora sighed, feeling awful. She stood up and started to leave, trying to avoid the others.   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
