Overwatch High

Maybe...

"Thank you."

Sombra looked at her like she was crazy. "You're... welcome?" Hana wrapped her arms around Sombra and wrapped her in a big hug. Taken off guard, it took her a minute to realize what had happened and to embrace her back.

"If there's anything I can do to repay you, let me know." Sombra's smile grew, she had never had someone thank her for something other than stealing free beer or getting them into nightclubs. As sombra let the good deed sink in, they were interrupted by distant yelling.

"SOMBRA! Where are you? The rain is getting bad and Amelie and I wanna get home c'mon!!" Hana looked up at her.

"I gotta go. I'll uhm, see you later? Don't make me tackle you to the floor again, stay safe." Hana gave her a big smile. "I will! I promise!" Sombra nodded her head as she turned to walk away. Hana stares back at her for a moment.

"Also, Hana, learn to be more observant! She turned back, Hana's phone in here hand with the pink case and the little bunny charm hanging down the corner.

Hana's eyes widened. "How'd you do that?" Sombra smirked, tossing the phone back, Hana barely catching it.

"Practice, amiga. Practice."

With a yawn and a rub of her nose, Mei rose from her bed. She reached over and grabbed for her glasses on her night stand. As she put them on, she jumped out of bed. Her small, pure white Pomeranian danced around her feet.

"Alright snowball I'm coming!" She ran down the stairs and greeted her mother.

"Come eat your breakfast before you feed that dog," her mother responded. Mei quickly stuffed her mouth with the doughy Youtiao and put a teapot on the stove.

"Don't eat so fast, you'll choke! I have soy milk for you, why drink tea?" Her mother asked.

"Mom I told you I don't like Soy milk I prefer tea."

"Ok ok well remember to take the dog out for her walk and when you get home get ready for work."

"Yes momma I know." She gave her mom a kiss on the cheek when she heard the tea pot start to boil. She made herself and her mother a cup. Her little dog knew she was getting fed just by the way Mei looked at her.

Mei swigged down the rest of her tea and put her shoes on. She looked over at Snowball, who had already finished her food and started to hop around. The little dog scratched at the door as Mei brought the leash over to her. She clipped it on and ran out the door, the small creature tugging her with force unimaginable for its size. She walked out the door and saw j
Jamison standing at the edge of the driveway.

"When did you move here?" Jamison asked, "I didn't know where you were so I asked a friend for a favor."

"We were still dating when I move Jamie, but you wouldn't know that I guess. Why are you here?" Mei responded, Snowball tugging to keep moving. Jamie brought his hands from his back, he had a bouquet of torn flowers, yellow but clearly browning.

"It's the best I could do. I'm sorry, I didn't know you changed jobs."

"I know how much you liked Fortune Bowl's food, so I switched so I wouldn't run into you, that didn't work out. Excuse me." She pulled Snowball along in the other direction. Jamie looked over to Mako, who was hiding behind a bush that somehow concealed him. Jamie shrugged his shoulders, and Mako shooed him along, mouthing the words,

GO GET HER!

He ran toward her, limping on his leg he hurt last night from... falling...

"Hold on Mei! Can we talk?" She turned around, Snowball stopping in her tracks and whining.

"No!" Jamison, taken aback and looking defeated, rubbed his hand through his hair.

"Why?"

"Because you left." Jamie looked at her for a moment, processing what he heard, realizing what went wrong, what he had done. He let go of her. He left, he hurt her, and left a wound so deep no bouquet or box of chocolates could repair. He realized then that the love stories of Hollywood were a lie, there was no Romeo and Juliet, no Jack and Rose, and now, because of him, no Jamison and Mei. He turned around, a tear forming in his eye and walked away, slowly losing grasp of the drooping flowers in his hand.

Mei watched him walk away, her eyes getting puffy, and she too turned back to her house. Her dog whined and begged to go the other way, but she walked back inside, wiped away a tear, and took the leash off the dog. Snowball looked at her, and when Mei saw her cute face, she broke down into tears. Her heard the sobs of her sweet daughter and went to her to comfort her.

"Mei, what are you crying about? What's wrong?"

"Nothing momma, I'm fine." Mei went to her room and closed the door. She crawled back into bed and wrapped herself around in the blanket. Her mother knocked on the door.

"Mei?"

"I said I'm fine!" Her mother paused for a moment, and Mei heard her walk away. She picked up her phone and pulled up Winston's contact.

I need you to come here

Are you ok Mei? What's wrong

Plz I need you

Ok I'm on my way, I'm bringing
Nutter butters and mint ice cream

Mei put down her phone and smiled. It was nice to have a friend like Winston around to be there for her when she needed it most.

Jamie walked home alone. He told Mako he needed time to think. Of course, Mako being Jamie's unwitting bodyguard he walked not far behind him, Jamie not noticing one bit. His leg hurt now more than ever. He stopped to take a moment, sitting on the curb of a suburban street he did not recognize. He rested his head in his hand, covering his eyes. Mako decided, after seeing his friend so distressed, it would be best for him to be left alone for a bit.

Jamie sat there with tears barely held back. He looked back at all the good times he had with her. The laughter, the love, the way she held him up at his worst, and only wished he could turn back time. He wished he could have told himself that maybe if he stayed a little bit longer that night, if he told her everything instead of just walking away, maybe he'd still have her to hold. Maybe.
