Thanos and Me [Thanos × OC]

Chapter 5: Coffee for two

When I got to the other side, we were inside my house. Specifically, inside my room. Thank the gods that I cleaned up my room before he showed up at the lake and took me or else I'll be embarrased.

He looked around my room and walked to my bed. Good thing my ceiling is really high or else he will bump his head. I'm not sure he'll fit through my door though. I mean he's too big and so tall.

Thanos was still looking around my room, as if he was trying to memorize every thing and every place where it is. Like he is curios about my room. 

"Hey, uhm, coffee is downstairs." I said and he turned around to look at me. I somehow felt flushed when he looked at me. I only met him so maybe this is something different. I walked out of the door and I could hear his footsteps following me. 

I have no idea why but I started walking faster down the stairs and it feel likes I'm running away from him and avoiding him. Of course I have to avoid him, he already has someone. Besides, he's a titan and I'm a human.

Wait, didn't Gamora and Ebony said Thanos's lover is also a human? Does she lives around here? I don't know, I'll just think about something else. This is too confusing.

I reached the kitchen and started prepping. Thanos came behind me after a few seconds. I guess he noticed I walked too quickly.

After a few minutes, I was done with the coffee. I poured my cup and got another cup for him. I grabbed the cup and handed it to him.

"It's hot so be careful." I said before he took a sip in it. He gave me a confused look. 

"I mean I was just warning you." I said. 

"I got into fights in many years and I haven't drop a single blood and yet you think I will be harmed by a hot beverage?" He asked. I rolled my eyes at him and just started drinking my coffee. He could have just said thank you for the warning or thank you for the coffee.

After he drank the whole cup, I stopped drinking mine and put it on the table. I looked up to him and he returned my gaze right back at me.

"So, how is the coffee? Good?" I asked timidly. I don't know if he finds my coffee good.

"It's different. Good different." He answered and I know it sounds so cheesy but I smiled at his answer. Of course I turned my back on him because I couldn't stop grinning ear to ear. He finds my coffee good and I don't know why I'm smiling. This is ridiculous. 

Let me now control my facial expression, keeping a poker face. I turned my back to see him and kept my poker face. 

"It's much better than the one I drank earlier in the big dining hall. This is coffee." I grabbed my cup and drank it until it was empty and released a sigh of satisfaction. Nothing beats the morning with coffee.

I looked up to see him just staring at me. I couldn't help but stare right back at him too. I'm really curious about the mysterious girl that Thanos likes. I wish I knew her. Even if I did knew her, I would definitely feel intimidated. 

I then roamed my eyes to his body. His really big, lavender body. For a titan, he is toned. His back is so wide and his pecs are wow. Look at those huge arms that could crush me in only a second. His hands are bigger than my face. I wonder what does he do. 

I get that he's strong and one of the strongest in the whole galaxy but I would like to know what is his weakness is. 

Maybe it's the mysterious girl. I really think if something happens to her, Thanos will leave me here and quick go to her. Maybe he'll even forget about me.

I sound so crazy in my head. So what if he chooses to save her instead of me? I'm just an annoying person to him. Maybe he doesn't even consider me a person but a thing.

I hate how I'm feeling right now. I can't do anything about it. Why can't I do anything. This is so frustrating.

I don't even know what I'm feeling. I need to look for books. Books that will help me to know what is this I'm feeling.

I walked up to my room, I have a shelf there where I put all my books. I quickly look for a specific book.

Aha! I found a book.

"The art of love." I whispered the title and started looking at the contents of it.

"Art of love? What for?" I screamed because I got surprised that Thanos was behind me and he heard me even though I whispered?

"It's not good to sneak up on people. I get scared easily." I said to him while showing my angry face which people say I look cute instead of angry. But I really don't know why.

"You scare easily?" He just repeated what I said.

"Yes, I get scared easily. Maybe because I drank coffee but it's hard to explain." I tried to change the topic so he won't ask about the book.

"Hm." He replied with just that. Not even a word. I stood up to face him.

"Let's go." I said and he looked down on me. He created a portal just behind me. I don't know why but that felt atractive on him. I hurriedly turned away from him and basically ran to the portal.

I got to his room and hid in the sheets. The sheets was incredibly big so I don't think he'll find me here.

I was covered in blankets and pillows and I was hugging the book. I could hear his footsteps walking around the room.

After a few seconds he stopped at the bed and sat on it. God, he's heavy. I could feel the bed sank.

"You're avoiding me. Why?" He asked. I knew he noticed it. But maybe he doesn't know where I am and is using a question to lure me out. I didn't answer.

"You're in bed. The blankets covering you, that's not a bad idea. It took me twenty seconds to find." I don't know if he's making fun of me or he is complementing me.

"Hiding in plain sight, I didn't thought about that." He continued. So he knew, huh? I guess cat's out of the bag. I got up and remove all the blankets and pillows that were covering me. Of course, I still hid the books under the blanket.

"No wonder you're one of the strongest of the galaxy." I said. If I played hide and seek with, he'll just always win.

"Why are you avoiding me?" He asked. I couldn't turn myself to look at him. I'm embarrassed.

"If the girl you're in love with is here then there will be a problem. So that's why I'm trying to avoid you as mush as possible." I told the truth while my back was facing him. I don't know what his reaction looks like.

"Akki." He called out my name.

"Gamora and Nebula said–" I was cut off.

"Gamora and Nebula was talking about you. There's no other human." He said.
