A Lion's Courage [Reinhardt x Male Reader] (Sequel) Overwatch Fanfic

Prologue

Strolling through the busy streets of London, they were covered in snow and bright christmas lights. The night sky grew less prominent walking under the strings of bright colors. They had been stretching from building to building in the brightest white Reinhardt had ever seen. The tiny layer of snow covering the stone brick street glistened and crunched under his footsteps as he admired each line above him. A couple of strings had stretched to the middle of the street which was divided into two by a section of trees, street lights and décor. The crowds busy hums seemed to simmer away in his ears being hypnotically entranced by the lights as he passed underneath their shine. What had shinned from afar were the lights of the ferris wheel sitting on the pier in the distance, it had glowed just as bright as the lights on the avenue. The moonlight shined bright on the distant sea separating the bustling town and the crowded pier from afar.

"Whatcha' thinkin' about big bear?" You hummed quietly next to his build grasping his warm arm tighter as if to snap him from his mind. Reinhardt's face gently lifted in slight shock from the gentle familiar voice next to him. The voice that shined through to him even in the darkest of nights and lifted his heart when he felt down.

"Ha, I was just admiring the scenery my darling! I haven't seen anything this pretty since I first laid my eyes on you." Reinhardt let slip from his lips his radiant yet gentle voice, having its hum caress your ears. His eyes still beaming gently onto the lights off in the distance, a gentle smile rose from Rein, the calm yet bustling scenery around him made him feel at bliss. The gentle kiss of the snow falling from the sky above, the crisp cheek-nipping air.

"Ah, so i guess the lights are prettier than me?" you playfully scolded the brute for his choice of words. Your radiant smile glistening in the crisp night air. The ambiance between you two seemed to get swayed for the moment seeing Rein' slightly bewildered by your statement, unable to understand your sarcastic nature.

"A- What? No! Not at all sweethear-" His behavior settled in causing to gain his attention before your gentle hand stopped the man in his panic.

"Rein, I'm just playing with you." You calmed the lion down with the tone of your soft voice and your smile that rose from ear to ear. Slithering your hands into his white beard, your eyes seemed to entrance his into leaning closer. A smile now forming on his face, the man had now realized he had foolishly been lured into his lovers playful trap.

"Ah, I see." The hum from the brute was enough to shake the heart and soul beneath your skin. His growlesque tone was as gentle as the chilled wind as the two connected lips. His hands slithering their way from your sides and onto your back made your skin tingle as he pulled you closer to his torso. Unlocking lips for the moment, the street goers never seemed to mind the romance between you two. You both were locked in stare and were entranced by each others beauty.

"Come on big guy; let's head home." Feeling his embrace caress your soul, your hand gently held his beard with your fingers rubbing his rose colored cheeks with your thumb. His eyes lost in yours lowering his head into your palm feeling every bit of love that hand had to offer.

"As you wish my love." The sound of cold wind softly whispered into your ear lowering your hand from his mane. The warmth between you two slowly faded, pulling away from his massive build.

"And when we get home, I say we drink some hot chocolate! I'm going to have two marshmallows in my cup!" His uproarious demeanor left your heart feeling warm weaving your arms around tight around his bicep. He watched you with bliss holding onto his arm for comfort and warmth. Your giggle granted him assurance that you were happy with his outgoing spirit. This life he lived, walking down the brick roads of London and going home to his own life wouldn't be the same without your radiant soul by his side.
