Angst beware! (Part of the Wishing You Were Here series)
-----
(Listen to the music!)
I had been working with Doctor Ziegler for a while now and she had noticed a change in my behavior. "Y/n are you alright?" She finally asked with a sigh. Her blonde hair was tied up and her blue eyes held concern.
Angela had become quite attached to me since I was her only personal assistant that helped her with almost all of her patients. I gazed at her over my shoulder while putting away some equipment.
"No why do you ask?" She narrowed her eyes seeing straight through my lie. I winced before sitting next to her on one of the beds.
"I had a lover back in Japan his family hated him for being with me instead of another girl that they wanted to marry him off to. But he stayed with him until I had to leave for Overwatch and he was heartbroken." Angela rubbed my shoulder gazing at me with concern.
"He must still love you Y/n if he went through things like that to be with you." I nodded playing with my hands.
"Possibly but Overwatch is planning to do something that may endanger him." You coverstation was cut sort when a stretcher burst through the door a mangled up person on it.
My eyes widened when I saw who it was. "Genji." I said in almost a whisper my voice cracking and tears springing to my eyes. His eyes flickered over my face and love flashed through them as he tried to reach out to me with what was left of his arm.
Angela rushed him into surgery leaving me outside since she had already guessed who he was to me. I paced outside the room for so long I nearly passed out from worry.
Angela suddenly exited staring at with a sharp expression. "He's dying Y/n." She said softly.
I bit my lip trying to hold back tears. He would have wanted me to be strong. "Can we do anything." Angela shuffled a little clearly nervous.
"We can but turning him into a cyborg is no easy feat and I don't know if that's what he would want." I breathed in deeply. Genji was the love of my life and letting him die would crush me forever but dooming him to a fate he didn't chose could be worse.
I sighed finalizing my choice. "Do what you have to Doctor ."

Many hours later I was sitting by his bedside holding his new metal hand. Angela did it, she had rebuilt his body and saved his life. But it was my choice and I would live with any consequences.
I heard him stir as Genji rose his eyes finding my face first. "Ai why is it so cold?" He asked his voice breaking from strain and not having water for a while.
I wince at the old nickname. Did he even still love me? Genji looked down at his body his new hands touching his chest and I lowered my head.
"How could you." He said tossing my hand aside in disgust. I swallowed hard, I knew this would happen.
"You would have died Gen I did what I thought was best." His eyes were burning into my face as I stood .
"I don't caw how could you do this to me Y/n! I trusted you with everything and this is how you repay me. I'm not surprised it was always about you and your dreams." I didn't cry though my body was dying inside.
"You never cared about me. Just leave
Y/n and go ruin someone else's life because I don't want you in mine." I turned around a did as he told me to I left.
I ran to my room and packed my things. We were broken and no one could fix what I had destroyed.
