[ Any further intrusion on Peter's part would only result in more irritation on Nebula's. She's not an idiot, she knows talking to her sister would solve some problems between them but Nebula is still unwilling to face the reality that she still craves her sisters affection. It's not easy to realize you still want a sister that spent her life being better than you and simultaneously rejecting you.
It's not something Nebula wants to face yet and she definitely doesn't want Peter to witness it. Even though at Yondu's funeral Nebula had almost felt something for Peter, she almost felt bad for the ravagers passing. Nebula is not like Peter though, she isn't stupid enough or strong enough to show her vulnerabilities.
Nebula watches Peter closely, the way he seems to struggle with her request until his shoulder release and she knows she's in the clear. If Nebula relaxes it's barely noticeable.
She rolls her eyes, because of course Peter has to make a thing out of her request. How does anyone stand to spend time with him she'll never know.
Nebula's made the mistake of believing the conversation was over when he speaks again, it stops her in her tracks. She's too surprised at his bold choice to continue this interaction to be angry but it doesn't take long. Nebula meets Peter's eye again, she advances slowly like an animal on the hunt and only stops when she's close enough to reach out and grab him. ]
If I wanted to talk to my sister, [ She replies after a few moments, her voice low and calm. ] I would have already done it, [ her voice is getting louder and harder. ] And if I do it will be NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!
[ Nebula's patience has run out, she's indulged Peter long enough and although she might regret snapping, at the moment it feels nice. It feels right. The only thing missing is the comforting weight of her dagger pressed against his throat. ]
