"Does he hate me?"
"Mon ami, he does not hate you. He is simply, shy."
"He never used to be!"

I sat on the couch in Spy's smoking room, freaking out. Lately, Heavy- one of my best friends in the world- has been avoiding me.

"Do you think it was me? Did I do something to make him hate me?"
Spy just chuckled and shook his head. "(Y/n), what on Earth could you have done to make him hate you, hm?"
"I don't know!" I sighed and put my head in my hands.
"Mon ami, it is very late, and you're overthinking things. Get some sleep and worry tomorrow, oui?"
"O-okay. G'night Spy."

I walked out of Spy's room and headed towards my own. As I walked down the hallway, hands in my pockets and eyes on the ground, deep in thought, I bumped into something. Or rather, someone. I looked up to see Heavy, face stern and slightly red.

"H-hey Heavy! What's up?" I asked nervously.
He said nothing to me, just nodded with his eyebrows furrowed, and walked away. I stared after him. Why, I thought, why does he hate me? I finished my walk to my room and tried to sleep.

Three days later...
Three days of no rest, and I was dead tired. My mind was occupied day and night by my large Russian friend. But were we even friends any more? He hasn't spoken to me in weeks, even in battle. I was losing hope, and lots and lots of sleep.

"Fraüline?"
I looked up with baggy eyes to see Medic.
"Are jou alright? Jou don't look so vell."
"I'm fine. Just a little," I yawned, "tired."
"Haff jou been seeping vell?"
"Yeah," I lied, "Just not a lot."
I started to get up, but I stumbled, my mind swimming. Medic quickly grabbed my arm, steadying me.
"Fraüline, jou need rest."
"No, I'm fff..."

I passed out to Heavy yelling my name with worry.



Beep, beep, beep...
The subtle beep of the monitor woke me. I opened my eyes to find the ceiling of the med-bay. Unsurprisingly, I was on the examination table, IVs connected to my arm. I heard a door to my left open, and I turned to look. Medic walked out, looking at a clipboard, and closed the door quietly behind him. I tried to speak, but my mouth was dry. I swallowed and tried again.

"Hey doc," I said hoarsely.

Medic looked up quickly and smiled at me kindly.
"Gut morning fraüline. Did jou get some sleep?"

I nodded weakly and tried to speak again. When nothing but a squeak came out, Medic chuckled and went to his fridge, bringing me a glass of water. I took it gratefully and downed it in one go. When I was finished, I tried to speak again.

"How long was I out?"
"About three days."

I looked at him wide eyed, and he chuckled again. He was about to say something when the main doors opened. I look over to see...

"Oh... Hi Heavy...."

The giant said nothing, but instead looked to Medic.
"Will leetle girl be alright?"
Medic nodded. "Ja. Herr (Class name) vill be fine." He looked awkwardly between me and Heavy.
"Um... I'll just... leave jou two alone..." He set the clipboard down and walked out of the med bay.

An awkward silence settled in the room.

"(Y/n)," said the Russian. I looked up to see him staring at his feet. "Misha is sorry. Have been ignoring you for many days. Feel awful."

"N-no, don't. Just... Can I ask why?"

From what I could see of his face, it was red; was he blushing?

"M-Misha has... some troubles talking, with..." He mumbled the rest of the sentence.
"Sorry Heavy, what? I-I couldn't hear you..."
He cleared his throat. "Misha has trouble talking to.... pretty women..."

It was my turn to blush as I comprehended what he said.
"Wh-wha?" My face was crimson as he looked up. He took my small hands in his giant ones, and looked into my eyes.
"(Y/n) is most beautiful woman Misha has ever seen. W-would she... consider..."

He couldn't finish his sentence before I wrapped my arms around his neck. He hesitated before returning the embrace. I started to shake as I cried tears of joy.

"I was so worried! I thought I did something! I thought you hated me!"
He hugged me tighter. "Nyet! Could not be more wrong! Misha loves you with all his heart!"
I pulled away from his chest and looked at him. His eyes were kind and worried as a loving smile spread across his face.
"I-I love you too."
