Genji visited you in the medbay. He waited until no one else was around to scale the outside wall and climb into the window, but he came.
You pulled from him just what happened with the candy on the floor. The candy had given you a hundred tiny cuts on your soles. Unable to walk just yet, you were resting. Genji’s attempt at a gift touched your heart, but he really didn’t have to.
“What am I gonna do with you, huh?”
He decided to assume that was a rhetorical question and didn’t answer.
He can’t believe you’re already rooted down in his core, when he pushed away everyone else. He doesn’t just want, he needs your comfort. He might as well be a lost little boy needing a momma or papa. Maybe it isn’t the healthiest desire for a grown man, but no one else has gotten through to him like you have. If it’s one thing he needs, it’s comfort from another human being. And if he has to act like a fool to get it, he just might. He also doesn’t realize he’d been looking at you like a puppy needing adoption this whole time.
“Genji, are you okay?”
“Hm?”
“You look scared. Like I’m going to hit you. Did I say something wrong?”
“No,” he says. “No, I just…”
You wait, but he doesn’t seem to have any intention to finish his sentence. He maybe he can’t.
“Do you…want to sleep under my bed again tonight?” you offer.
He blinks, his brain suddenly working.
“No.”
“What about in my bed?”
He nods.
“Why didn’t you just tell me?” you demand. You’re still a bit peeved that he put you here in the medbay, but not enough to pass up on some ninja cuddles. “Get in right now,” you say, lifting the blanket. “Cuddle me good. You owe me for slicing my feet open on fucking candy, you goof.”
“That is fine with me.”
You were giddy that no one else heard such things from Genji but you. You wiggled over to give space and smoothed the smile from your face before he settled in. He took up the position of little spoon, pulling his wires forward to keep them from hitting your face. Your forearm rested in the dip of his waist.
