You must have fallen asleep on the way back because when you awoke you where in your bed with Jesse laying right next to you. He cuddled you protectively as if he was about to loss you. You tried to speak but your throat was dry and hurt. No doubt about it, there would be bruises there. You looked over at Jesse again before tears started to run down your face. What if those horrible things that Brigitte said where true?
You went to get up to get some water, unable to stand the pain any longer. Once you had moved the slightest inch out of jesses grasp he jolted awake.
He sat up and looked at you. Your hair was a mess, you neck was bruised and your sure your face was not the prettiest at the moment. More tears trickled down your face as you looked up at him.
"Hey hey hey darlin" he pulled you in for tight hug while making sure to avoid your neck.
He attempted to calm you down as he went and got some water for you as requested. Your throat did feel somewhat better after but you still couldn't help thinking about what Brigitte said to you.
'Oh yeah just sleep your way to the top'
'You slept with Jesse only so you could make your way up in the ranks! After you stabbed Genji and the Commander! It's a wonder how your even a member!'
More tears came down from you eyes before Jesse caressed you cheek rubbing it as you finally looked at him. His eyes held worry and sorrow.
"Jesse..."
You croaked out, you throat still dry to the bone even with the water.
"What is it darlin?" He tilted your chin up so you where face to face with him.
"Do you think I slept-t with you b-because I wanted a h-higher rank?" You whispered out
He seemed to pause, he seemed shocked at this question.
"Why would you even say somethin like that?" He now held on to both sides of your face.
"C-cause b-Brigitte....said-"
"I don't give a shit what Brigitte said (y/n)"
He seemed slightly upset at this but never the less he took a deep breath and calmed himself.
"Listen (y/n), I love you, always have and always will. I know for a fact that you feel the same way so don't you think for a second that because she said something it chances everything. Because it changes nothing" he said
"........Jesse..."
You gripped onto the front of his shirt a cried into it while he placed his arms around you in a somewhat loose hug.
"Brigittes just mad because your a better agent then she is" he smiled
"Then how come she beat me? And almost killed me?" You looked up at him
"She may be stronger and bigger then you but you have the intelligence darlin, plus that nifty little gift of yours" he chuckled.
"I don't know if I would call it that" you giggled.
You slowly drifted to sleep in his lap. You didn't realize how tired you where until you where close to him.
*jesse pov*
(Haven't had one in a while)
(Y/n) had just fallen asleep in my lap. I can't believe Brigitte. She used to be such a sweet little girl.
It hurt me so much to see (y/n) cry like that, to see her in pain like that. I wasn't there to protect her...but then again who knew someone in overwatch was out of her blood. If Gabriel hadn't gotten there when he did she might have been dead. I would have intervened but Morrison told me to stay back and I'll be damned if I'm going to listen to him but two other agents came and held me back.
I shifted (y/n) so she was laying in our bed with sheets surrounding her. I needed to take care of this. I checked on her one last time before walking to Gabriel's office and knocking. A quiet 'come in' was almost impossible to hear as I walked in.
"I knew you would be here" I walked in to find Gabriel sitting in his office chair smoking.
Smoke clouded the room and gave it an ashy smell.
I sat down in the chair across from his.
"I wanna thank ya" I stated
"For what?" He made eye contact with me.
He was calm know but I noticed it must have taken him a few cigarettes to get there.
"Savin (y/n) sir"
"I didn't save her, just made sure we didn't have to recruit someone new"
"Also Morrison doesn't know what the hell he's doing anymore. Was he really going to sit there and try to talk Brigitte out of killing (y/n) when we all now she had every intention of doing so? Brigitte should be kicked out of overwatch for this but because she's Reinhardt's niece I'm sure she'll just get a slap on the wrist" he scoffed in disgust.
"You right" I looked out the window.
"Maybe we just have to make sure that it doesn't happen again" Gabriel looked at me with a sinister smile.
"What do ya have in mind" I'm not usually one for hearing his evil plans out but after what (y/n) just went through I was ready for anything.
Walking out of Gabriels office with a frown I went back and made sure that the hallways where clear of any gossipers before making my way back to my room and closing the door. I walked in to see a sleeping (y/n) right where I left her. She looked so peaceful when she was sleeping, like not a thing in the world mattered.
I crawled into be next to her and brought her close. I kissed the top of he left hand. Memories of her making things float in mid air went through my mind. She said she could control things such as metal and steel.
Wait..
if she could control metal and steel then why couldn't she manipulate the gun that Brigitte held to her head? Why couldn't she force it away?
