You/Zero-Two - Comfort

(Darling in the FRANXX)

AN: I couldn't be bothered to deal with Hiro so he died when he first linked with Zero-Two. You took his place as Zero-Two's partner.

Everyone was right about Zero-Two. Every partner that she had, always ended up dying on the third time that they linked with her. You surprised everyone when you barely made it out alive on the third link. Your injuries were critical but you had survived.

You opened your eyes to find Zero-Two sitting across from you.

"Darling! You're awake!"

"Zero?"

"Safe your strength, darling! I'll get the doctor."

She does as she says and they come to check you. After giving you the clear and explaining your injuries, they left you alone with Zero-Two. She explained everything that had happened after you passed out.

"We really took them out?"

"We did! It was because of your determination that we were able to eliminate them. I thought I had lost you for second but you regained conscious."

You didn't deserve any of the praise that she was giving you. She had done most of the work, Zero-Two was the one that helped you push yourself.

"No. It was because of you. I wanted to give up. I...I was ready but you brought me back."

She cupped your cheeks and turned your face so you could look at her directly.

"Listen to me. It was a combined effort. Everyone before you has never been able to do what you did. You're still alive Sure, you have quite a few injuries but you're alive. We're going to continue working together to be the best."

"Zero...."

She smiles and leans in to give your cheek a kiss.

"I love you, Darling."

"I love you too, Zero."

You felt the sudden shift when you returned with the others. You weren't sure why they suddenly turned their back on you but you had a feeling it had to do with how you got to live and not Hiro. Zero-Two tried to keep your mind off of them but it was impossible. You could hear their snide remarks whenever you passed by them. 

".....you're not even paying attention. Are you still letting them get to you?'

You felt bad for ignoring Zero-Two but you couldn't stop thinking about what they would say to you. 

"I can't get their words out of my head. What if their right?"

"About what? Because from what you've told me. They're all wrong. Hiro knew what he was getting himself into. No one is responsible for his death other than management for letting him continue."

"But what makes me special? I scored lower than Hiro. I wasn't even meant to continue the program. I failed out of it. I was gonna get kicked out. He should've been your partner, not me."

"Listen to me!" She grips your cheeks, purposely digging in her nails in your skin to grab your attention. "You were meant to be my partner. You're special because you're you. Stop listening to them. If they know what's good, they'll also come to realize that we're meant to be partners and we belong here."

You can't help but smile as she wipes away your tears. 

"What would I do without you, Zero?"

"You'll be hopeless without me, just like I would be."
