Not As Planned - Bad Batch Tech X Fem!Reader

[5]

"Well how about, uh, let's not talk about this again?" Y/n stutters, avoiding looking at the silent Tech at all times.

"Deal, just know we'll never let Tech forget about it." Crosshair looks at the silent and embarrassed Tech.

"And what will you get out of doing that?" Tech replies, an edge to his voice.

"Enjoyment." Crosshair replies plainly, shrugging and tossing his toothpick at Tech and stalking away.

Hunter looks at Tech and Y/n again, and follows Crosshair out, so does Wrecker after a few seconds of shipping the two with his eyeballs.

"Why didn't you like- push me off of you or something?" Y/n snaps at Tech.

"You seemed sensitive and in need of physical touch." Tech replies, not looking at her.

"Did you like it?" Her voice gets quieter as she smirks at him.

"No! Physical touch, particularly from you, is repulsive. Thank you." Tech snaps back, looking up at her finally, then looking away immediately.

"Ooh, so scary." She pokes his shoulder, mocking him. "How repulsive."

"Stop it." He commands.

"As your general, I order you to not order me to stop it." She smirks smugly.

"And as the trained medic of the group, when it comes to the health of my team, including you, I outrank everyone. Please, sit down. You are going to irritate your wound again." Tech says, glaring at her.

"Hey- wait- you stole that from another clone! The 'I outrank everyone' little speech!" Y/n realizes.

"Yes, I did." Tech sighs in defeat.

"Kix, right? 501st? I remember I was on a mission with Anakin Skywalker, and Captain Rex was telling me about his adventures on Saleucami."

"I don't believe I recognize the name 'Rex', but I know I have met some of the 501st in Kamino and I indeed use that speech." Tech says, realizing that they're having a simple conversation, and not jabbing insults at each other's heads.

"He's a good guy. I work with the 501st along with my former master, I got to know the crew." Y/n explains.

"Oh? Did you torture them too?" Tech couldn't help but make another jab at her, even if they were just being peaceful.

"The opposite." She smirks at him and winks. 

His cheeks heat up slightly, and he feels a new emotion well up inside him.

Jealousy. 

He doesn't know why this feeling is there, but it's there.

"You're insufferable." Tech mutters under his breath, adjusting his glasses.

Suddenly, Y/n has an impulsive thought.

"Can I try on your glasses?" She blurts out.

"Uh, alright sure." Tech says in confusion.

He takes off his glasses and hands them to her.

She stares at his non-glasses face, and her face heats up a little. She swiftly puts his glasses on her head to try to hide the blush. "How do I look?" She smirks.

"I don't know." He says flatly, staring at her blankly.

"Are you really that blind? Jeez, I'm surprised the Kaminoans even let you train with this bad of sight." She snorts, blinking as her eyes water slightly at the blurriness she sees in his glasses.
