She was rather surprised to find that Quill was the one to come into her room. In fact, she was nearly certain that it would have been Rocket but she was thankful to see the handsome Tarren walking in. A small smile curled her full lips as she stared up at him with her chocolate colored eyes. Her caramel colored skin showing the red handprint on her throat but she didn’t really care all too much, she was just happy to see that Quill was here and that he was alright as well.

A nod lifted and dropped her head as her straight white teeth showed being her soft pink lips. “I’m alright. I’ve had worse.” Seeing his hand still clenched into a fist, she reached out her small hand placing it gently on his fist. “Don’t be mad Quill.” Her tone was soft and reassuring. “You kept your promise. He’s caught and I’m still alive. That’s not something just anyone could do.” She gave him fist a small squeeze. “It takes the Guardians of the Galaxy to do something like that. A star-lord.”

Yeah stroking his ego might be the best way to get him to calm down a bit but it was true. Nikki was still alive and, even though she was injured, it was better than limping to the nearby doctor’s office with a broken leg and arm covered in blood. Something she could speak from with personal experience. The thought that Quill wouldn’t turn her in for the reward that was still placed on her head was a real relief for her. She was safe with the Guardians of the Galaxy, at least for now. “Everything’s fine.” She said in a reassuring tone though her volume wasn’t very loud thanks to the sensitivity of her throat; but her smile showed honesty.
