TF2 x Reader One-Shots (REQUESTS OPEN)

Promise (xMedic)

Your fingers rested on the slightly opened door, debating in our head whether to go in or not.

He'd been working for a while, maybe you should check up on him?

But you really didn't want to interrupt his thinking, since you know how important his mediguns are to him, it could bring his team back to life. And you know that the members are very, very important to him, even if he didn't admit it.

But you got Coffee for him?

Your thoughts battled in your head, maybe you really should stop him from overworking himself, but would he be angry that you interrupted him?

Ah what the fuck, you're his goddamn girlfriend.

You lightly apply pressure to the door, it swung open with a groan.

With his back to you the Medic was working, his skillful hands toyed with the medigun at hand. Archimedes watched with his friends from afar, they seemed very interested.

The Medic's head lifted, then he twisted his body to look at you as he put the gun down. Your heart missed a beat as you saw what condition he was in.

His normally well looked after hair is a mess, sticking out all over the place, it looks like he had been running his hand through and pulling at his hair in stress. His baby blue eyes didn't shine like they usually did, but were clouded with dull clouds. Dark bags hung under his eyes, he looked absolutely exhausted.

But despite the condition he was in, the Medic still looked you in the eyes and gave you the best smile he could muster up. But you could tell it was forced, the light his smile brings didn't reach his eyes.

Tears blurred your eyes. You thought he was fine! He told you he was fine! When you tried to tell him to rest, he said he was fine! Hot tears rolled down your eyes, he was clearly not fine!

The Medic's smile faded as he saw you crying. Your hand shook, the mug of coffee fell, and exploded into fireworks upon impact with the ground.

You felt so angry, but so sad and guilty at the same time. You shouldn't have listened to him, what kind of girlfriend were you if your boyfriend was in this state and you had absolutely no idea? Your heart ached, your knees buckled, maybe you were overreacting, but you loved him very much, and seeing him like this hurt. The fact you had no idea hurt even more.

You felt like running away, but your legs wouldn't move. You whole body shook, finally your legs gave out  and crumbled to the ground.

Medic watched you as you broke down, his tired eyes widened. You were always such a hopeful figure that seeing you cry made it surreal. 

Deep down he knew he probably should have told you, but he didn't want you to worry. He himself knows what it feels like to worry for someone you care about, damn his reckless RED/BLU teammates to hell.

His heart broke, he thought keeping this from you would save you the trouble, but he didn't think it was going to backfire.

He caused you pain, and he didn't know how to fix it.

Quietly Medic strolled next to you and dropped to his knees himself. Then he gently wrapped his arms around your shaking figure. He smelt clean, like he always does, despite working on contraptions you though only Engie could handle. 

You never knew what Medic smelt like exactly, clean is the only word you can use to describe it.

Medic held onto you, his gloved hand came up to stroke your hair gently, petting you as if you were a cat, holding you like you were a frail vase that will shatter if he's not careful.

You were very angry at him, but seeing the always so tough guy act like this made all your anger fade. You knew he was worried for his teammates the same way you worried about him. 

Sometimes you wished he was just a normal person.

"Josef," You choked out.

"Hm?" His response was quiet.

"Promise me you'll tell me next time, so at least i can look after you."

He hesitated for a moment, but the continued running his fingers through your hair, gently messaging your scalp with his gloves.

"Of course, I vould never cause you pain ever again."

You smiled, and finally wrapped your arms around him, your tears had mostly stopped, man what does this man do to you. You buried your nose into the crook of his neck, his hand didn't stop the soothing touch for one second.

Seems like overreacting may be worth it after all.
