💡Nightlights and Kisses (RED Medic x Scared!Reader)💡

Requested by pointlesslikelife

You hated the dark with a burning passion. Ever since you were little, you had always feared the unknown and what lied within it.

The situation you were in didn't help either.

It was about time for a battle but unfortunately a huge storm had hit, knocking out all the power which ment no Medi-gun, no senteries, and no electricity for teleporters. So both teams had decided to call it off till tomorrow and agreed to have a ceasefire day till the storm passed over. There was loud thunder, heavy winds, pouring rain, and worst of all...no light.

So here you were sitting in a pile of blankets in the corner of your room shaking and nearly in tears. It wasn't the storm, well it was but that wasn't the main issue, it was the fact that you were alone in a pitch black room, with the occasion of bright flashes from the lightning.

How pathetic right? You. A female mercenary who kills people without a care in the world and laughs about it...is scared of the dark.

In a way, you were glad that you were alone so no one, especially Medic, could see your pathetic state. Your (E/C) eyes were wide with fear, your body was shaking even though you weren't cold, and worst of all your (H/L), (H/C) hair was a mess due to the blankets. Basically you looked like shit.

While you were in your blanket burrito, your hearing was muffled which made you unaware of the footsteps coming up to your door and the soft knock against it.

"Frau? Are jou alright in zhere? I'm coming in."

Your door creaked open and Medic walked into the room with his flashlight in hand. He shone it over to yiur bed, where he expected you to be, but you and your blankets weren't there. He tilted his head in confusion then slowly scanned the room until he saw your (E/C) eyes peek out from underneath your blankets in the corner.

Medic contained his laughter while walking over to you. You saw the light from his flashlight and already felt safe. Medic kneeled down infront of you and pulled back the blankets off your head, smiling down at you. A huge red blush formed on your (S/C) cheeks as you stared into the doctors cool, blue eyes.

"If I didn't know better (Y/N), I vould say zhat jour afraid of zhe dark hmm?"

"N-No! I just-"

Just then a loud, boom of thunder made you scream and jump right into Medics arms, knocking him backwards and the flashlight out of his hand. He yelped in surprise and then looked down to see the top of your (H/C) head and your face snuggled into his chest. Your hands were clenched tightly onto his tan vest shaking slightly. Medic let out a bark of laughter then wrapped his strong arms around your frame and rubbed your back in small circles.

"Are jou alright now Frau?"

"A-actually...I think I need to stay like this...just for a little bit l-longer."

To be honest, your fear had subsided. You just wanted to continue laying on the floor with Medic until the sun rose up. Medic knew that you were lying since you had stopped shaking but he felt too comfortable to move and the flashlight had provided enough light for you to not feel any fear of the dark.

He places a small kiss on your head and you looked up at him just in time to catch his lips against yours. His eyes widened before he kissed you back and placed his hand on the back of your head.

'I could get used to this~'
