Hanzo's POV
Jesse and I got back home pretty soon and we put away the groceries pretty fast.
Afterwards Jesse dragged me to his room which I obliged to since well, it was his room. My eyes searched the room for a clock and then I found myself staring at angry red numbers. 8:26, it read. It was getting late faster than I could keep up with. As soon as Jesse laid down in bed he pulled me down with him and in an instant I was engulfed in his scent. Cigars and coffee. A scent that has become so beautifully familiar to me. He pulled the covers over us and I couldn't help myself but inhale the drugging scent. Jesse produced a thick yet rich chuckle that filled my ears and I blushed. I tried to advert my gaze to the window to avoid his gaze. But, of course he wasn't going to let me get away with that. One minute I was staring at the glowing moon accompanied by millions of stars and the next, well, the next I was staring at Jesse's gorgeous face. His face was pulled in a sideways grin which made me blush even more.

"It's aight Darlin, blushin looks cute on ya."

I let out a shaky breath and tried to look away from those deep oak orbs.

"Aww, cmon darlin, let me see those pretty eyes."

Hesitantly, I looked into his eyes. As soon as I gazed into them, I was trapped. I felt myself wanting to be closer to him. I wanted to touch him. My wish was granted thankfully as Jesse bundled me up into his arms and tugged me down. All my senses were attacked by Jesse. It felt like I was in the palm of his hand.

"God damn darlin, yer so beautiful."

I knew he meant it but, I couldn't help myself. I felt insecure and I just wanted to feel like I truly was special. I wanted to feel like after all this time, he meant every single thing that came out of his lips.

"Do you really mean it?"

"What d'ya mean, Darlin?"

"How much do I mean to you?"

"Darlin, yer my world. The only reason I don't go to overwatch as often as I used to. Yer like a diamond to me. A beautiful, shiny diamond. I can't imagine life without ya. I love ya so much.."

My mouth went dry and tears stung at my eyes. I know he wasn't an artist when words but, pouring out his feelings in the way he knows filled my heart. He completes me. Then he asked me a question.

"What am I to ya, darlin?"

My thoughts began to slush around and my heart took control of my mouth.

"Jesse, you make me so happy. I was raised to believe that love wasn't real, that it was a myth, a weakness. I always thought that life was just loneliness and labor but, you came around. I didn't want to believe that you loved me. But, you proved me wrong and I couldn't be more thankful. God, I don't think anyone can mean this much to someone. You're like the air I breathe. You give me life. I feel so lucky to have you to a point I feel like I don't deserve you. I love you...more than a man can love another soul."

He ensnared me tighter and I held his arms, a faint smile etched my face and drowsiness began to sprout and grow. I fell asleep almost instantly, satisfied.
