(JoannaNikolakakos I choose you!!!!!!!!!!! I have been playing pokemon go but I won't reveal my team for the sake of arguments happening 0_o )
It was another day in the life of the mercenaries. They all had done their usual, demo and bombs everywhere, heavy with medic and his beloved sascha (did i spell that right ;~;), spy doing... what ever he does, pyro staying no more than an inch away from its backburner, sniper had been pissed at the soldier and scout that went to go bug him about "not enough killing people or explosions or sun tzu" or something like that. You decided to stay with your teams Engineer as he strummed his guitar. "Ahm glad you kept little old me company, it get lonely out here." You looked up to him as he continued strumming harmonic notes that made your ears ring in just that way that makes anyone with a cold heart of stone to melt into a soft cuddly bear.
"Hey engie, do you like anyone?" He stopped his playing to think before getting back up into the song. "Well not at the moment, why? Do yah like me? "
You blushed but pushed that thought away as you only thought of him as a friend. "No. I'm just curious."
You two kept talking about everyone else and how you feel about them. Mean while, an enemy spy is roaming around and spots the two of you conversing and waits for a good moment to strike.
"Well, I'll be heading off to have fun with the blus, see you engie! " "see yah later darlin'"
The spook took this opportunity and advanced upon the two. You turned to leave when you hearing a faint noise of a decloak. You spun around to see the spy getting ready to sap the engineers stuff and backstab him. "SPY!!!" You threw yourself at him and clobbered him with your melee weapon. (I JUST SEE THE FUNNIEST IMAGE CX)
"Well, mighty thanks. I need to pay attention more." He mumbled the last part under his breath. "No problem engie, anything to kill that snake! "
(TIME SKIP YEAAAAHHHHHHH)

It's been a few days ever since she saved me, I've felt different since then but I can't put my finger on it. I feel fine around the boys but, I feel different around her.
I've been pacing my room trying to find out what has been going on, I've never felt these feelings before.
I sat down and continued my blue prints, I measured and calculated numbers and wrote them down in their corresponding spots. My thoughts were interrupted by a knock on my door followed by a familiar voice.
"Hey engie, dinner's done! Come down when ever" it's her. I listened to the footsteps retreat and that feeling returned.
(Your pov)
"Engie, dinner's ready, come down when ever! " I walked away noticing it's unusually quiet, but that man never ceases to amaze me. I smiled thinking of him as something more than a friend. I chuckled to myself as I thought it was merely a fantasy. I had no idea what the future had in store for me.
I came down and served myself a plate of soldiers revolting cooking. The slop slapped against the plate disgustingly. You sat down in the Rec room where the rest sat with their heaps of sentience upon their plates. Engie was the last to come in, he sat down and stuffed a spoon full into his face. He glanced up to you and watched you converse with the team mates while eating the mess that loomed on your plate.
You looked over to the southerner as he was lost in thought. You waited a few seconds before you waved a hand in front of his face.
"Oh. Sorry darlin." He looked down at his food. "It's ok, it's not an uncommon thing to do." 'To be lost in thought' as you said in your thoughts. You were startled by heavy's thundering laughter as demo attempted to dance in his state of drunken craziness.
Engineer caught one last look of you before standing up to put his plate in the sink.
Later that evening heavy, scout, demo, engie, and you had all taken in to watch a classic horror film. Demo fidgeted with scout hugging him in fear. Engie looked over as you clamped his arm in shock as a jump scare had caught you by surprise.
(Engineer pov)
I watched the screen before I was attacked by her. She hugged tightly into my arm before I hugged her thoughtfully. She froze in my grasp before melting into my chest. She calmed down from the fright as I shared my warmth with her. I amazed her features in the dark room as the screen lit her face up perfectly. Wait....... I LIKE HER?! I smiled as she was perfect for me.
(Your pov)
I laid my head on his chest as rhythmic breathing of rising and falling took ahold. His heartbeat was calm and soothing. I muzzled my head into his chest as it was late at night and my eyelids grew heavy. Forgetting everyone else existed, I murmured three words. "I love you."
This took the Texan by surprise and everyone else "awwwwww'd" you soon fell asleep in his grasp as his warmth fueled your dreams.
(Engie pov + TIME SKIP)
I was walking over to spy's smoking room as I was having trouble coming up with a way to ask her out. Over the weeks I had fallen for her but it was hard for me to come up with a way to ask. 'Knock knock' "Spah, is me." "Come in labourer".
I walked in as I gently closed the door. "What do 'ou need?" I say down in front of his desk "ah need help with this girl, she had clouded my mind for quite some time now but Ahm having trouble asking her out." "I see, and do 'ou wish to be with her? " I nodded. "What is she like?" I hesitated.
"Well, she's not all that fancy, her favorite color is (fav color), she's gentle when she wants to be but is protective. She isn't demanding and doesn't expect everything from anyone and doesn't put her self before others."
"I see now, try to give her flowers or a gift with a note to ask her." I nodded.
I spent the rest of the day writing and throwing out papers as they weren't perfect in my mind. I slammed my head down in the table as a rose fell to the floor. Instantly scout came in curious as to why there is banging in the table instead of metal. "At hard hat, what's Goin on?"
I huffed "Ahm tryin to ask (y/n) out but it is hard for me." Scout scoffed "it's easy! Just show off your big guns and ya got a date, don't forget the chicken, it's important." And with that, he closed the door.
I glared at the door behind my goggles as I scratched my shaved head before I heard arguing outside my door. "NO, LEETLE ENGINEER EES TO GIVE SANDVICH TO LEETLE GIRL THEN ASK FOR DATE!" "No sir! He is to tell her about how she shines more than America!" "No yah bloody idiots, take her out for a shot of whiskey or two."
I rushed out to see that scout told them all that I was trying to ask out (y/n) but they all were arguing how to do it. Sniper looked over in my direction and walked over to me. "Truckie, don't listen to them, do what you think is right and tell her how you wish. AND YOU BLOODY IDIOTS CAN SHUT YOUR GOBS!"
(Your pov finally)
I came down to see what all of the commotion was about. "AND YOU BLOODY IDIOTS CAN SHUT YOUR GOBS!" You jumped at the Australian yelling at the others to be quiet.
"WHAT IS ALL OF THIS ABOUT?!" everyone immediately quieted down at the sound of your voice. Scout eventually spoke. "Hard hat's tryin to ask ya out!" You flustered madly.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Engie walked over and took your hand. "Because ah was scared you would say no." You wrapped your arms around him. "I would never say no to that coming from you." And with that you two closed the distance.
