Overwatch One-Shots (Requests: CLOSED) ON HIATUS

Wake Me Up: Mei x Reader

I shot up like a bullet from my laying position, I looked around the room for the source of the screaming, not noticing anything I raised an eyebrow, curious as to who or what made the noise. I got up out of bed and stretched my limbs out, whimpering came from the room next to me and I became worried. Mei, my sweet and loving girlfriend, had a history of frequent nightmares, most of them caused by the same thing. She always tried to tell me that they were nothing and for me not to worry about it, I never really believed her to be honest, on some days she would look like she didn't get any sleep at all while trying to avoid her nightmares and it scared me a little bit.

"Should I go see if she's alright?" I asked myself, biting my lip as I contemplated the thought. I walked towards my door and unlocked it, walking out to the hallway and heading towards Mei's door after I made sure my door closes. I typed in her password that she gave me and the door slid open, Mei was sleeping on her bed, tossing and turning while whimpering and mumbling something under her breath.

"Mei?" I stood by her bed, letting her door fall shut, and gently shook her body. "Mei, wake up sweetheart." She tossed around even more before her eyes shot open, she looked up at me as tears filled her soft brown eyes, I reached down to hold her in my arms.

"I had the worst nightmare," she sobbed on my shoulder. "It was terrible, I was so scared, (Y/N)."

"It's alright snowflake, I'm right here." I cooed, running my fingers through her chocolate brown locks, after a few minutes she stopped crying and looked up at me with a soft smile.

"Thank you (Y/N)," she spoke softly.

"Of course sweetheart," I smiled back at her. "Do you want to talk about it?"

"I was trapped in some sort of cage," she began. "Talon had captured us and they started to torture you in front of me, you were screaming in agony and I couldn't do anything to stop it. Eventually, they tortured you so much that..." she stopped mid-sentence and started to cry once more. I sat down on the bed and hugged her tightly, gently rocking her back and forth until she calmed down.

"It's alright Mei, I'm right here. It was just a dream baby, I'm not going anytime soon." I smiled down at her, she sniffled and planted a kiss on my shoulder.

"You're so amazing (Y/N)," Mei sighed. "What did I do to get you?"

"Just by being your cute, nerdy self." I teased, "Also when you make that amazing tasting chow mein..." She laughed and poked my stomach.

"You're such a dork!" She smiled and kissed my cheek. "But you're my dork, so I guess that's okay."

"Hey, you're a dork too!" I pointed out, she shook her head and smiled.

"Of course I am, and I'm proud of it!" Her chest puffed out with pride and I giggled, we smiled and I got under the covers with her.

"I'll sleep with you for the rest of the night, alright? Maybe that might help," Mei nodded and snuggled close to me. We wrapped our arms around each other and closed our eyes, I breathed in her sweet scent and sighed, bringing her closer to me.

"I love you (Y/N)," Mei mumbled before falling back to sleep.

"I love you too Mei, my little snowflake." I kissed her forehead before letting myself fall back to sleep, knowing that I'll be with her when she wakes me up.
