You stretched out your arms and greeted the sun that spread its warm light over you.
It had been a long day with hard work in the newly reactivated Overwatch and you enjoyed the calm moment. Your team had just finished a job at Route 66 and were waiting for the transportation back to the base.
You let out a deep sigh and felt how your body relaxed. You decided to sit down and bask in the warm sunlight with closed eyes.
A gentle breeze caressed you and the warm light seeped into your skin. The world was coloured red behind your eyelids.
You head fell forward and you realised that you must had dozed off. Slowly you opened your eyes noticing that it was not as bright as when you had closed them. You were just about to ask yourself how long you had been sitting there when you noticed that you were not alone.
Genji sat right next to you, almost so close that your knees touched. You looked at him, confused over his presence.

" It is not safe to sit alone out in the open. " He said as if he had read your mind.

Then you noticed the body laying on the ground some steps away. A skilful throw and clean strike had ended the bandit's life.
You realised that it was probably not one of your best ideas to take a break out in the field.
Neither of you stood up as you thanked him for keeping an eye out for you.

" Naturally. It is my job to look after you after all. "

You raised an eyebrow at the statement. You guessed he was right with you being teammates and all. But you did hope that you did not look incompetent to him.

" Not that I do not know that you can protect yourself. Yet I have been an agent longer than you, so I must watch over you. " He hurried to add as if he had yet again read your thought.

" Senpai noticed me." You squeaked as girly as you could and laughed.

It was hard to tell if the joke had gone through or not so you wave it away and stood up. Without thinking about it you reached out your hand to help Genji up.
You end up standing with your hand out for a moment awkwardly looking into the green visor. You looked away as you felt a blush warm your cheeks. You had always found Genji fascinating and even good looking. Being this close to him made you realised yet again how strangely handsome he was.
You expected him to ignore your hand but he slowly and gently took it. You got so surprised over it that you forgot to pull him up and ended up falling into his arms.
Luckily he reacted fast and stopped himself from loosing balance.
The two of you were pressed against each other with your chin resting on his shoulder. You end up not moving an inch out of embarrassment, not ready to face the green light.
A gasp escaped as you felt his hands on your back. They were keeping you still instead of pulling you away. A humming sound came from Genji as he pressed you closer to his body. It ended as suddenly as it had started and Genji hastily loosen his hold of you. He stood up and helped you up with ease.

" I think the transportation is here now." He said.

If he was as red in the face as you probably were it was hidden behind metal. You simply nodded and the two of you headed back to the rest of the team.
