"First day here I come" you yawned as you crawled out of bed. You opened your dresser to find a note from Captain Amari "Welcome to Overwatch y/n, I brought it upon myself to pick out your clothing since I don't think any of the Blackwatch boys could manage, if you need anything, my office is next to commander Morrisons"

You have yet to meet this Captain Amari person but it made you feel good to have such a warm welcome. You placed the letter on your dresser, you looked down at your clothes, they where all black but I guess that is fitting for the covert group. You pulled out a black tank top and some black leather leggings.

You opened the door leading to the hallway, you looked both ways to make sure to avoid running into Reyes. You were worried about being alone with him. You made your way to the kitchen, there was no one in there. You looked in the fridge, nothing that you could eat so you looked around to see what you could find, all there seemed to be was bread so you made some toast and then took it to go.

The toast ended up making you five minutes late to your first day of training, you ran into the training room out of breath. The training room was this huge open room and on the walls were racks of weapons from swords to guns, the room was all beat up, there were bullet holes in the walls and sword marks on the floors.
You see McCree standing right in front of you smiling "well here is the new girl" you smiled up to McCree "I'm sorry I was late I couldn't find any food I could eat in the kitchen"
you glanced over to Reyes who was leaning on the wall a crossed the room, he had a bandage on his noes most likely because you broke it, his eyes caught yours and you stood frozen like a deer in headlights.
"Well don't be shy darlin" McCree grabbed your arm and pulled you over to this cyborg looking man, "this here is Genji" Genji came over to you and bowed "it is nice to meet you finally y/n" you return the bow and smiled at him, you couldn't see his mouth but judging by his eyes he was smiling back.
The good moods shattered by Reyes thundering voice"Enough with the introductions and lets get this training started" he walked over to all of you his face as always in a scowl "y/n don,t be late again or you will be cleaning the bathrooms" you frowned at him and replied with a "yes sir"
"Alright hmmmm, y/n I want to see what you got" Reyes growled
This is what you were dreading you knew he wanted to get revenge for the headbutt and this is his chance. You knew he would win this battle you looked at him up and down, he was a tall man about 6'3 and he wasn't a lean man he was all muscle.

You looked him in the eye and decided to make a smart ass comment "are you sure you aren't worried I'll break your noes again" he laughed at your comment and you wished you didn't have a smart mouth.
"I won't be letting that happen again cadet" you could tell in his voice he was confident.

He readied himself into a defensive stance, you took that as a go ahead and take your move.
You rushed him throwing a punch but his reflexes were too good and caught your fist, he then swung you around so your arm was behind you back and you were unable to move. "You really going to be that easy of an opponent" he whispered into your ear his breath giving you goosebumps on your neck.
You were trying to squirm free but it was useless he was too strong, you had to do something less expected or use his strength against him, that would be the only way of winning. You took you leg and kicked back into his knee it made him fall to one knee you then took your elbow and hit him in the face' he cursed and released your arm. You went to knee him the face but he grabbed your leg bringing you down to the ground and you smacked hard on the floor, he took the opportunity to pin you with his knee on your chest he counted "1....2...3" he laughed and stood up and you rolled over coughing.

You laid there embarrassed by your defeat McCree came over and gave you a hand.
You stood up and looked at Reyes who was giving you a sly grin "looks like you were all bark and no bite" his laugh made you more furious than ever. He turned away from you and something took over, you took you leg and swept it under his and brought him to the ground with a slam he laid there shocked, you bent over him and looked into his eyes with a smirk "never put your guard down commander" you look over to Genji and McCree who where shocked and scared for you.

Reyes looked up at you in fury he reached up and grabbed your ponytail and yanked your head pulling you onto the ground next to him, he then wrested you around into a choke hold. You gasped a wheezed while grabbing at his arm "you need to learn respect cadet" he snarled tightening his grip, you couldn't focus on his words, your wheezing picks up and you began to kick. "Enough Reyes!" McCree shouted to Reyes but Reyes is blinded by anger.

You looked up into Reyes eyes, you could tell he was gone, you felt close to blacking out now. McCree was now trying to pull him off you. Reyes cursed he seemed to realize that you were on the verge of dying he let go and you began to lose consciousness you see Reyes turning to McCree "Go get dr.Ziegler.....Now!"
The last thing you saw was Reyes looking into your eyes trying to keep you from losing consciousness but it was useless.

You woke up in a hospital bed, your throat sore from being choked, you began to cough. The door to the room you were in opened and a blonde haired woman walked in. "Oh good you are awake you gave the Blackwatch boys a scare" you start rubbing your neck, just by feeling you know it is probably black and blue "where am I" your words are scratchy and harsh. "You are in my clinic, my name is dr.Ziegler, Reyes carried you in here and said the training went south....he didn't say much else" she gave you a warm smile and set down a glass of water for you. You looked at her, she was a very beautiful woman, pale soft skin, blue beaming eyes, and blonde hair that she kept tucked into a pony tail. "How long do I need to be here," you asked, "oh you can leave now, just had to make sure you woke up okay" her smile made you feel so safe. "I hope they aren't being too rough on you" she giggled "well I think I need it" you smiled back, "I'll let you be y/n feel free to leave whenever" she walked out of the room.

After an hour of laying in the hospital bed, you decided it was a good time to head back to your room and sleep in your real bed.

Your room was dark you never realized yesterday how plain and boring it was, it didn't make your mood get any better. You went over to your dresser and you realized Captain Amari forgot sleeping clothes so you decided one of your long black shirts and panties would have to do, you cozied into your bed and fell asleep.

You awoke shaking from a nightmare you had, your bed was wet with sweat, there was no way you could fall asleep now, you needed to do something to get your mind off it.

You tiptoed down the hallway still in your shirt and panties, it was the middle of the night you doubt you would run into anyone. You went into the training room and with your tablet, you turned on some music, it was a Latin song that you loved, you took your hair down and you began to dance to it and moved to its rhythm. While you were dancing away your nightmare you hadn't realized that Reyes had walked into the room, he stayed in the shadows and watched you.

Up until that moment, he saw you as a wild criminal with no respect for anything, but now as he watched you it was as if you were the most beautiful creature in the world. He watched as you twirled around, you were completely captured by the music. Every move you took, took Reyes breath away he couldn't believe you where the same woman that head butted him.

As the song ended you here a voice and you recognize it as Reyes's "shouldn't you be in bed y/n" you looked over to Reyes who was walking over to you. "I couldn't sleep, I have many nightmares keeping me up" you rubbed your neck over the bruises left from Reyes, you saw Reyes eyeing your neck "I didn't mean to choke you like that.....I am not a good trainer if I kill my squad" you could hear in his voice that he was truly sorry. He walked closer to you and brought his hand to your neck and you jumped a little, he started to gently brush his hand against it before looking into your eyes, you took his hand down off from your neck and held it "I know Reyes, I forgive you" for the first time ever you saw him smile a little he quickly changed the topic in hopes you wouldn't notice his smile "Where did you learn to dance like that" you liked that Reyes is actually trying to get to know you "well when I wasn't training to be a soldier I was taking dance lessons, I wanted to be a dancer not a soldier but of course that wasn't meant to be my fate" Reyes looked a little sad with your answer "well you would be a lovely dancer" you began to blush and you hoped Reyes couldn't see it because it was dark. He cleared his throat "Well it's late and we have more training tomorrow I think we should try to get back to our rooms" you smiled "of course".

Back in your bed, you smiled to yourself remembering that you saw a little side of Commander Reyes that wasn't grumpy, that thought allowed you to sleep a little better.
