(Angela's point of view and this is a bit of a long chapter :P )
After I few months of getting to know Fareeha, I feel that I can say she's my best friend on base. She's quiet, but never fails to amaze me with what she does say. She's a great supporter and friend, even if her confident aura does kind of intimidate me. She's kind and sweet, and she surprisingly has a huge sweet tooth. I was interrupted from my thoughts by Fareeha herself walking through the door to our room.

"Hey," she said with a smile as she went to sit down on the armchair directly across from the couch I was sitting on. She kept smiling and in that moment I realized how attractive she really was. I mean, sure she has the looks but that natural genuine smile makes her look 10 times better than before. "I'm going out for pizza, wanna join?"

"Of course I would, are we going to the usual spot?" I responded, a smile coming across my face. This wasn't an out of the ordinary request, we often spent our lunches together just for the company.

"Yeah the usual spot" she went back to being a bit shy, but only because she didn't like to talk much. She still had her shoulders back and she was still looking me in the eye.She really just didn't like to talk.

As we walked outside the base, a message dinged on our phones from Winston.

All agents report to the scheduling room.

"Mission time huh." Fareeha said and you could see the look on her face completely change from a lighthearted caring friend to a soldier. She had this confidence that radiated off of her now, and a grim set determination. She turned into what I call a complete badass. She was willing to do whatever it takes to save the team, but the confidence that radiated off of her made her into this badass hero that was willing to do whatever it took to help her team. She was a complete team player, and that truly showed when she was on the battle ground.

As I flew behind Fareeha, now Pharah, I couldn't help but notice how serious she took every mission. This was an escort mission of low value to us, and she still treated it like if they lost it they would pay severely for it. It was an admirable trait, if anything it's a rare one. I could see the calmness on her features whenever something went wrong, she didn't care if something went wrong because she always found a way to make things right again. I guess that's another admirable trait.

Back at the base after the mission...

After the mission was a success, the whole team threw a small party. Which was mainly drinking and chatting, but no one on the team cares as long as they got a bit of alcohol. I quickly went back to my room to get changed into sweatpants and a T-shirt and as I'm walking back I see Pharah already walking away from the party.

"Going back so soon?" I ask politely.

"Yes, Zarya and Reinhardt are holding a drinking contest and it's getting a bit rowdy" she responded calmly, you could tell she was starting to doubt her decision though.

"Let's go back and watch a movie. Trust me, when Reinhardt starts drinking in a contest run. Run as fast as you can," I say happily with a smile.

After reaching the room I decided for once to let Pharah choose the movie. She chose The Giver movie, I guess she did remember it was also my favorite book. Throughout the movie we chatted, and I laughed too many times to count. She was just so naturally funny when she wanted to be, and I couldn't help but be so happy she was my friend. An incredible one at that. She seems to trust me thoroughly, and she just reminded me that I could call her Fareeha. It was quite an honor, the only people who actually called her that were Reinhardt and Winston.

As we were getting ready to go to bed, we got in a discussion about the book.

"I guess you could say Jonas was a little cold to his community" I say with a emphasis on the word cold. A smile was planted on my features as I saw Fareeha laugh. A genuine laugh that only few people saw. She sometimes was too shy and serious for her own good in that way, but being able to make her laugh gave me butterflies in my stomach. She was so pretty when she laughed, she looked so carefree and happy.

Soon after we stopped goofing off I decided to go to bed, it was 24:31 after all. I went and laid down, but suddenly I was restless. I laid there for a while trying to sleep, but eventually my mind started to wonder. One thing it seemed to like to constantly think about was Fareeha. Always Fareeha. I mean she is one of my best friends so I guess she means a lot to me. But I'm basically as close with everyone else on the team as I am to Fareeha so I'm really not completely sure why it always wonders to her.

Instead of wondering my mind started to focus on Fareeha. It swirled with thoughts all about Fareeha. She's so pretty. She has such a great smile and laugh. Her accent is so cute. She's so focused on her goals. She's so confident and stern, but she looks good while being stern and confident. And many other thoughts about Fareeha swirled through my head. I'm lucky to have her. She's such a great friend. I was thinking all about me being lucky to have Fareeha, when suddenly something hit me.

You like Fareeha. No, no she's just a friend. I started to have a little panic in my room, I did know that I was bisexual and liked girls and boys but I had never been hit with a crush this hard before. No it's not a crush she's just a friend. Yeah that's it, she's just my best friend and I care for her very much. I still felt unsettled. More thoughts went through my mind. She's so pretty though. Her hazel eyes are so steady and confident. As I was laying in my bed, I finally drifted into sleep.

In her dream
I stared into Fareeha's eyes as we stood on the Watchpoint's observatory deck. The view was incredible, but the person next to you made it better. You turned away from the view to look at Fareeha. You looked straight into her hazel eyes as she turned to face you, all confidence and composure. She places her hand on your check and leans in. You don't resist. The height difference wasn't enough to be a huge difference, but I still have to look up and her down. She gets as close as she can before kissing you, and you pull her down to kiss you.

Real life
I wake up with a jolt. WHAT?!! I thought about the dream I just had, it was 04:00 and I'm still a little dreary. You kissed Fareeha. The sudden realization came rushing at me. I do like her. The thing was, sometimes she had dreams, that were more like nightmares, with her kissing people she didn't like in that way. This was different. I liked that dream. I liked the way it felt and I liked the fact that I got to kiss Fareeha. She probably doesn't like you back. I knew it was a slim chance that she liked my back, but the panic from earlier was now completely gone. You like Fareeha.

*Ooo Angela likes Fareeha. I wonder what'll happen next :P Feel free to leave a comment!    -TiredBean*
