•3rd Person POV•
It was now Friday morning-
Well, actually, it was 11.46 am, but who cares.
The sun was shining brightly, rays of sunshine preying its way through the glass door that lead to the balcony. Jesse was sitting on his bed, looking up at the ceiling as he waited for the clock to strike twelve. Him and Hanzo had agreed to go with a one hour distance, just so that they wouldn't run into each other.
The raven haired archer left when it was eleven, and so now, McCree was just relaxing until it was his turn. The two were going to go shop separately for the things they would need for the festival.
McCree was tapping his leg, trying to think about what he should get, waiting for the time to pass. Genji had texted him about the details of the festival, and where he should confess his feelings. He also texted, and told him to go buy a Yukata.
Jesse picked up his phone and saw that it said 12.00 on it. He smirked and stood up. "Looks like it's High Noon." He said to himself, a quiet chuckle following before he left the hotel room.
~•*•~
Hanzo was walking around the town, trying to find a store where they sold nice looking Yukata's. He wanted to find the perfect one to try and impress the cowboy, though he would never tell.
The town was filled with people, and the shops and cafés were slowly getting overfilled, most likely because of the festival. It was a popular thing to visit, and the nightsky filled with colours was definitely becoming a tourist attraction.
Hanzo looked at his phone to see that it was a little over twelve. McCree was most likely on his way out now. The archer sped up, a smile on his face, his heart beating loudly in his chest. He didn't want to meet up with him until the festival, or it would ruin the moment.
~•*•~
•McCree's POV•
I checked my watch as I looked around the park frantically. I felt so nervous as I stood here, waiting for Hanzo to show up for our date. I was going to confess later, and I couldn't deny that I was extremely uneasy and scared of rejection.
I hadn't seen the archer since early in the morning, and I was starting to miss seeing his beautiful face, abd his gorgeous eyes. My mind kept wondering about what Hanzo would look like.
I let out a quiet, shaky sigh as I started walking around in circles, though, before I could do my 7th round, someone put their hand on my shoulder, spinning me around. My eyes went wide.
There was Hanzo... And dear God, he looked stunning.
The archer had his hair tied up in a bun, the yellow silk tie cascading down his back. He was wearing a light blue Yukata with a white band around his waist. He smiled at me, his eyes shining brightly in the moon lighy. I felt my cheeks heat up slightly, unable to take my eyes away from him.
"Earth to Jesse?" Hanzo said, waving his hand in front of my face. I quickly snapped out of my gaze and grinned, rubbing my neck. "Sorry, I just got lost in yer eyes for a second. Gosh Hanzo..." I paused and looked down at him once more. "Yer beautiful.."
I swear I could see the Shimada blush for a second before hitting me in the side gently. "You flatter me cowboy. You do not look too bad yourself." Hanzo replied, turning around on his heel, starting to walk off. "Come on, the festival is starting now."
I hurried aftet Hanzo, almost tripping on my dark purple Yukata. I walked besides the raven haired, a smile on my face as we made our way towards all the stands. I ran a hand through my hair, kind of missing the feeling of a hat on my head. I decided not to wear it since this was a special occasion, and it wouldn't fit the clothes.
~•*•~
We were walking through a large crowd as we visited most of the stands. There were lots of different types too, like food stands, mini game stands and jewelry stands. Hanzo and I grabbed us some takoyaki to eat, and then went to try out the fishing game.
We could easily catch all the fish, but decided to let all the kids there try. I noticed one that seemed to struggle, so I got a few, maybe three fish, and handed them to her. She smiled widely and thanked me.
The two of us continued our date, walking through the crowded area, ending up near a shrine, where a few people were praying. Hanzo walked up to the shrine and got down on his knees, holding his hands up in front of his face, his eyes closed. I stood back, not wanting to interupt.
He came back to me after a few minutes. "What were you prayin' for?" I casually asked as we started walking somewhere. Hanzo smiled softly. "I just prayed for our future success.." he mumbled quietly, but I heard him, and I couldn't help but chuckle. How cute could a 38 year old man be?
"Why are you laughing?" He asked, slightly glaring at me. I grinned and glanced down at the raven haired male. "Because that was really cute." His cheeks flushed dark red, and he got quiet. We continued out walk in a comfortable silence.
~•*•~
There was a loud squeaking sound that came out of nowhere before a ladylike, yet robotic voice was heard. "The fireworks will start in 10 minutes everyone! Find a good place where you can what them." Afterwards, there was another squeak, though not as loud.
I looked over at Hanzo with a smile, trying to hide my nervousness. The archer looked back at me. "Shall we go find a place to stand and watch?" He asked. I grabbed his hand and started leading him off of the path we were previously on. "I know the perfect spot. Trust me." I told Hanzo as I dragged him further and further away from the crowd. This spot Genji was talking about better be great...
~•*•~
•Hanzo's POV•
McCree was leading my down a tiny, almost faded dirty path, over a small grassy field. In the distance, I could see a small hill, that for some reason, looked so familiar. I just shrugged off the feeling and followed after the cowboy.
It took us a while, but we got to the to of the hill, and there we stood, looking back at where we came from. The view if the nightsky was indeed perfect, and we weren't too far away, so we were still able to hear chattering. It was kind of surprising that this spot wasn't occupied, but I'm not complaining.
I turned to look at the brunette, then I realized, we were still holding hands. I felt my cheeks heat up, but I didn't pull away. It felt nice like this. I gave McCree's hand a light squeeze, and after a few seconds, he returned the gesture. "The fireworks will start soon.." I said quietly, looking up at Jesse's face. He was smiling. "Are you excited?" I added, and he turned to look at me, our eyes locking with each others.
I felt warmth in my free hand, and before I realized, McCree had taken my hand in his. He was holding both my hands, our bodies facing each other. I was confused, I didn't know what he was planning, but then I heard it...
"I've got somethin' to tell ya' Han.."
~•*•~
•McCree's POV•
My eyes were locked with the archer's, and they wouldn't seem to move away. "What is it Jesse?" Hanzo asked me, making me snap back to reality. I blushed slightly, looking to the side. It was now...or never...
I looked back at Hanzo, letting out a quiet sigh. "Hanzo, I- I love ya'. I have for a while now actually, but I couldn't find the right moment to confess before now." I paused, took a deep breath, then continued to confess my love with confidence. "I love yer beautiful, hypnotisin' eyes, yer lovely smile, yer kind, yet extremely stubborn personality."
As I spoke, I could see Hanzo's eyes widen, and his lips parting a bit. God, I wanna kiss him. "I love everythin' 'bout ya' Hanzo...S-so.." All of a sudden, my confidence dissappeared, and my fear of rejection appeared. "Be m-mine?"
When I finished my confession, I got quiet, looking down at the archer in hope of an answer. He was quiet too, which kind of frightened me. He opened and closed his mouth a few times, like he was about to speak, but stopped himself.
I felt Hanzo squeeze my hands gently, and then our eyes met again. "J-Jesse...I-" the Shimada stuttered out, his cheeks red. "I f-feel the same..." he mumbled quietly, and I mean quietly when I say it. It was barely audible, but I heard him, and my eyes slowly widened. "Y-ya' do?" I had to ask, wanting to be one hundred percent sure. "I do not lie Jesse. I mean it." The raven haired spat back, grinning a bit. I couldn't help myself. I stared laughing, and so did he.
Before I knew it, his hands were around my neck. I slowly wrapped my metallic arm around his waist, my other hand on his cheek.
The sky lit up at that moment, so many different colours spread out over the beautiful, starry night sky. The loud sound of the explosions and the people chattering were loud, but for me, all the sounds seemed to die out, and all I could hear, was this...
"Yes Jesse... I will be your boyfriend.."
Hanzo's words made my heart race, and before I knew it, we both leaned closer to each other, our lips connecting. The two of us shared a long, passionate kiss.
It felt incredible, especially now that I knew we were a real couple. We both slowly pulled away, panting slightly as we looked at each other.
I swear I saw Hanzo give me the do-me eyes. A small grin formed on my lips. "Want to head back to the hotel room, Darlin'?~" I asked, my tone turning quite husky and low.
Hanzo let go of me, his hand slipping into mine. "With pleasure, Cowboy~"
