Female genji x reader

Genji was warm.

Most people assumed he ran cold, that the metal encasing his body was nothing like human touch, and while it was different, you knew better. He gave off a lot of heat, and you loved it.

You were happily dozing on his chest, a thick blanket pillowing your head -Genji had insisted, worried about your comfort- while your boyfriend stroked your hair. You were warm, safe, and you would've fallen asleep there and then had a sudden hard tug of your hair not forced you to open your eyes.

"Sorry," Genji murmured, sounding sincere, but then you felt another tug, and another.

"What are you-" you tried to sit up to scold him, but your hair was tugged again, and a look in the mirror made you realise what had happened.

"I am sorry," Genji repeated, sounding very embarrassed. His mechanical fingers had become hopelessly snared in your hair. He was trying to release himself as gently as possible, but it was still pulling on you a lot.

"Oh my god," was all you could think to say.

"I am sorry, (y/n), I didn't think- I should've realised-" Genji didn't seem to know what to do with himself, feeling bad about ruining the moment and causing you pain, and sort of worried as to how you were going to get out of this.

"Don't worry about it," you smiled to reassure him. Your relationship was relatively new, and both of you were still a little nervous -no need to let your boyfriend beat himself up for something that could happen to anyone. Although probably to a lesser extent, as most people didn't have holes in their fingers.

You held the hair under where it was entangled, propping yourself up on your elbow, still leaning on top of Genji. You were mostly sprawled on top of him, at this point. It was an odd and awkward position, and you wanted to get untangled as quickly as possible before the whole situation made you laugh in your boyfriend's face.

With your grip preventing the hair from tugging at your scalp, it was a less painful process -but Genji didn't seem to be getting anywhere, and after five minutes your arms were getting sore.

"Uh, Genji," you said, stifling a laugh.

"I promise I am going as fast as I can," he said, intent on his task. You smiled to see him so focused on something so silly. He sighed and looked down at you, the visor brightening when he saw your smile. At least you weren't upset about this.

"Maybe we should just call Angela?" you offered. You had a sinking feeling this was going to end with you losing some hair, but it was due for a cut anyway.

Genji agreed and Dr Zeigler arrived, taking one look at the two of you before turning around to hide her laughter.

"I think," she said, clearly amused and not very sympathetic, "I'll have to get you some gloves or something for now, Genji."

"That would be... for the best," Genji agreed, free hand holding you tight to him.

"Can we please hurry up? Both of my arms are asleep."
