Could we get Vaas sending Liv out of the camp because of Hoyt coming down. She goes out to see the doc and gets some pictures of him and his home. Cue Vaas getting jealous of her pictures of Doc!
A/n: thank you, hun, for sending me this. I had fun writing it. I hope you enjoy it.
Warning(s): Vaas being Vaas (albeit a bit tame), mentions of drugs, language, jealousy.
No Minors Allowed!!
"Hoyt is coming here? Why?" Liv asked, raising a curious brow.
She tried not to let it show, but she was terrified. Since meeting him, she never wanted to be put in a situation where she'd have to see him again, but of course, things didn't always work out the way she wanted them to - her new life on the Rook Islands was an example of this.
Carlos sighed. He understood her worry, he didn't much like Hoyt or his Privateers, but her questions were unnecessary.
"It doesn't fucking matter. We're not going to be here."
Liv was more confused than ever, but as if the pirate knew what she was about to ask, he quickly answered.
"El Jefe (the boss) is sending us on a run to the doctor's house."
This must be a drug run.
The only time Vaas sent someone to Doctor Earnhardt's place was to buy drugs from him, though Liv never went to see him for that reason. She wondered if Vaas was sending her there because of Hoyt's sudden visit. Her stomach was in knots. She wasn't sure how to feel about this.
"Can I grab my camera before we go?"
"Hurry the fuck up," Carlos retorted in annoyance.
He honestly didn't mind. As long as she stayed out of his business, then he was content. Giving her back her camera was probably the best idea Vaas had when it came to Liv. At least she wasn't annoying Carlos.
With her Olympus in tow, she got into the Scavenger and tinkered with the settings as Carlos drove her to the doctor's house. Liv was beyond excited; the land around the mansion was gorgeous.
She spent hours running around the grounds within sight of Carlos, taking pictures. Doctor Earnhardt was a bit strange, but always so kind to her, sometimes mistaking her name as Agnes, which she didn't mind. It almost saddened her to say goodbye to him and return to the outpost.
Liv was on cloud 9 as she sat beside Yada at an unoccupied table beneath one of the huts. It was almost time to eat thankfully, so she waited with him as Carlos went to check in with Vaas.
"Why are you so damn happy?" Yada asked.
Was she not allowed to be?
"Good day," Liv uttered.
"Lucky fucking you. We had to deal with Hoyt and his stuck-up putas (bitches)," Yada mentioned.
Liv would have felt bad for them, only the Pirates could handle it. She wondered if Vaas was in a terrible mood; she wanted to view her pictures on the laptop. It was probably best if she waited.
After dinner, she sauntered to the trailer that Vaas stayed in and knocked on the door, knowing better than to just walk in.
"Fuck off!" He shouted in response.
Liv tightened her jaw. She reckoned that he was in a bad mood. With an uneasy breath, she clutched her camera right.
"Thank you!"
She turned to walk away, but the sound of the door slamming open startled her, drawing her attention to the pirate. Her first response was to avert her eyes, due to his half-naked appearance; his shirt was missing, and his pants were nearly hanging off his hips. The dark circles beneath his eyes were more prominent, making her assume that he had been trying to sleep.
Liv felt her face heat up.
"The fuck are you thanking me for?" Vaas asked in confusion.
"For allowing me to go with Carlos to see Alec," Liv answered quietly. She lifted her camera. "I took some pictures. Um… I left you a note before I borrowed it from your room."
Vaas ordered her inside, despite the look of annoyance on his face. He considered turning her away since he wasn't in the mood, but the content and embarrassed look on her face wasn't one he was used to seeing. She mostly tried to hide her fear, remaining quiet in his presence unless spoken to.
As she walked in, Vaas shut the door behind her and grabbed the laptop, tossing it on the bed before he lay down. He watched Liv grab the cable, sitting down on the edge beside him where he could see the scene.
One by one, once booted, the images appeared on the screen. Liv was in awe of them, even the ones of Doctor Earnhardt that she took. A specific one of him sitting at his chair by the window made her smile. He looked comfortable, maybe even a little high.
"You like him?" Vaas suddenly asked.
Liv raised a brow.
"Alec? He's sweet… Though sometimes he's a bit unorthodox. But I like him enough."
"Enough to fuck him?" Vaas asked.
Where was this coming from? Liv wasn't sure what to say. She peered over at him, seeing his eyes narrowed on the screen. There was no way he could have been jealous of the doctor. Vaas might be bipolar but she had never seen him show signs of jealousy toward Alec before.
Is it because of me?
Liv sighed. How was she meant to defuse this? Turning her eyes back to the laptop, she searched for an image and then turned it into a background image, lying down beside him; the laptop rested on her stomach.
"This is by far my favorite picture on the island."
It was a picture of Vaas sitting on the beach with the sun on his back, making him appear almost like an angel.
Or a demon.
"The lighting is flawless," Liv uttered as she hovered her fingers over the screen, showing him the way it cascaded over him. "And so are you. Guapo (handsome), no?"
"¡Mierda (shit)! You know how to play the game," Vaas stated with a grin. "Always kissing my ass."
He put his fingers to his lips to emphasize his point.
Liv snorted in response.
She wasn't lying. Vaas was the most handsome demon she had ever seen.
Here's to hoping he doesn't attack Alec for this.
