"Aww come one (y/n) you love the ice wall prank! You usually laugh when I do it..."

I bite my tongue as I go into the lab and close the door. Yes I'd usually laugh at her wall prank, hell I'd laugh at when she iced over Junkrat, but today I'm trying to just be calm, just trying to be by myself. I don't want to be around people right now, I don't want to be near people I care about, it brings back those god awful memories.

"Oh (y/n)~ I know of something you'd laugh at."

"What?"

"This!"

And in an instant I saw snowball start making small flurries of snow sprinkle on the floor. They weren't cold enough to keep their shape as they melted when they hit the floor. Before I could ask her what was so funny about a wet floor, I see Lena sprinting through the lab and then she fell over and almost hitting the work table, if she hadn't recalled.

"What in the world? Why wasn't there a sign here! Someone could've gotten really hurt! Hmpf!"

Mei giggles a bit but then frowns when she sees my blank expression.

"Are you ok (y/n)? You really don't seem like yourself today."

With a sigh I look at Mei in her eyes and I see so many things. It breaks my heart to see her so worried, sad, and confused.

"Mei, it's not you, it's the fact that no matter what I'm always going to have to live with this," I wave my hand in front of my body, "I'm always going to have to live with the fact that I killed my parents and I did those god awful things in the street just because I thought it was funny. I have to live with being me and right now, it's the last thing I want to do."

I don't look at her nor do I let her say anything as I go back to my room. I close my eyes not to sleep but to be left with my thoughts, the memories of the people I killed, the things I could've done, and how I don't regret much of it.

*Knock knock*

Opening my eyes I didn't realize I had fallen asleep. I turn to my clock and see it's been about 3 hours. Why did no one wake me up sooner? God I'm going to have to finish so much work later.

*Knock Knock*

Groaning I look at the door. Do I really want to see anyone right now? No, but this fucker seems persistent on seeing me.

"The doors open."

I hear the creak of the door, I close my eyes as the bright light from the hallway floods into my room. Mei doesn't walk into my room she just peaks in enough to be in here but still in the hall.

"Are you coming in or not?"

Mei slightly flinches, god fucking damn it. Why do I have to be so mean to her today. I rub my eyes with my right hand and make a small hovering flame with my left. It goes up and lights the room up just enough to see each other but not too much to see my walls.

"Oh! Sorry sorry. I-uh-I came here to apologize. I have no idea what you're going through today. I don't know what demons are haunting your mind. I do t want you to think that I was being insensitive earlier, I was just trying to have a bit of fun with you. You're the only person I can be myself with and I don't feel like I have to fake anything. You're such an amazing person and-and I-I love you too much for you to deal with them and think you're alone!"

My eyes finally adjust to the dim light I made as I see Mei has something behind her back. She shimmies a bit balancing the thing as I get up from bed.

"Thank you Mei, it really means a lot to me that you're apologizing. I'm also sorry. I shouldn't have been so mean, I'm just- it's just- I've never had anyone to lean on. I'm just-fucking a."

I don't let Mei give me the gift as I go to her and crash my lips onto hers. They feel so soft and cold, with a taste of cherries. Before Mei could react I take my lips off of hers, she lightly moves her head to follow my lips.

"Wow, that was so-so,"

"A-Mei-zing?"

She glares at me, and even with my fire just barely lighting the room I can see her eyes as if they were glowing as bright as the sun.

"I hate you right now."

"You love me."

Mei giggles as she finally is able to show me what was behind her. It was a pretty big box with pale blue wrapping paper and a nice purple ribbon.

"Ya know Mei you could've just held the box in front of yourself, then put it in the ground, and I still would've been surprised?"

Again she lightly glares at me before pushing my chest a bit. How is she do cute.

"I don't question you when you do weird things fireball."

Her face goes red as she realizes what she called me.

"Ok snowflake, let's just see what's in here."

I open the box, the ribbon effortlessly being undone. The wrapping paper was glued separately from the box and lid so it was just as easy to take off. There's a lot of things in it; a cute pachimari plush, a new t-shirt with "bring the heat" in fire italics as the base is white, a framed picture of when Mei and I had our first mission together. I smile a small genuine smile. It wasn't a hard mission but during everything Mei would protect me nonstop, she was even able to freeze an enemy tank to give me a few seconds to cool down.

"Mei these are freakin great. Thank you so much for doing this."

"You didn't look at everything though," Mei goes to the box and at the very bottom is another wrapped gift, it's small. "I think this one would be the most thoughtful out of all the gifts."

Mei give me the biggest smile as I open yet another gift.

"A picture?"

"Not quite. Pictures."

I look at the pictures and see it's me with Overwatch agents, old and new. I turn them around and see every single one has a message.

Hey (y/n) I have no idea what to write here but regardless I'm writing here to tell you you're amazing. Not only have you saved my ass during missions you've been an amazing brother on and off the battle field. I can't imagine my life without you. I don't know what demons you're fighting but you're not alone, and you don't have to feel like you need to suffer alone. We're here for you now and forever.
~Fareeha

Hi (y/n)! Mei told us to write a thing for you and that's what I'm doing! You're an amazing friend, comrade, and brother. I know things haven't always been great between us, but look how far we've come! I don't know what I'd do without you! Thank you for being yourself and being a great person!
~ Lena

I don't know what to feel anymore. I go to Mei and kiss her harder then before. The kiss was filled with so much love and passion. We had to separate because of our lack of air.

"Thank you Mei. I love you."

"You're welcome (y/n). I love you too."

I hold Mei tightly as she hugs me back. I feel like a huge weight has been lifted from my body. I know it might not take away my demons but knowing Mei and my family at Overwatch will always be there for me makes it so much more bearable.
