Hana played StarCraft as her beloved fans watched in awe. Her tongue hung out, and her sore fingers smashed the buttons on her hot pink controller, her trademark bunny printed at the top. She was so absorbed in the game that won her worldwide fame that she was hardly listening to her fans rooting for her in Korean. She loved being their hero, but what people didn't know was that she had another side, a side that she so longed to come out.
Hana Song recently turned 19, and after years of competitive gaming and touring, she wondered what it would be like to be a normal teenager, to go out with friends and maybe even have a boyfriend. She'd never been on a date, or had her first kiss. The fact that she hadn't lost her virginity yet was embarrassing beyond belief to her. Her life was dedicated to video games, being a celebrity. Hana finished the game, dropping the controller to the floor as her fans cheered.
Just as always, after the game came the autographs and photos.
"Love, Dva." She signed a picture of herself from the WCS Korea Code S League for a female fan.
This lasted about half an hour before she got to go home, where, even then, she had no time to herself. Ever since the military hired her to pilot the MEKA in the battle against the omnics, Hana's life had changed immensely. The fame intensified, but for the first time in years, thanks to Overwatch, she was finally able to live a somewhat normal teenage life.
Junkrat stood outside Roadhog's room, talking and joking with him about their last match. Hana, who lived a few doors down in the girls' hall, hid behind her open door, watching and admiring the Aussie from behind. She listened in on the conversation, wondering if they were talking about her.
Of course they weren't; Hana had only fought beside Jamison one or two times, and barely had time to talk to him in the pre-battle waiting room.
She didn't really talk to any of the guys beside Lucio, and maybe Soldier 76 when he yelled out orders and would tell her what things were like "back in his day". All she could do, what she allowed herself to do, was just admire Jamison from afar.
Unaware of how long she'd been staring, she saw Roadhog look over Junkrat's shoulder at her.
OH SHIT.
She felt her heart stop, and jumped back behind the door.
"Hana?" Roadhog said in his deep, harsh voice.
Hana sighed and showed herself, "Hi, Mako…"
She made her way over to the two men.
She'd been caught.
Hana quickly tugged on her tank top. She was a small girl, so not much was visible for Junkrat's viewing pleasure.
"So...some match, huh?" Hana laughed nervously, her hand behind her head.
Yesterday's match was not exactly her best. She, Jamison, Roadhog, Mei, Soldier 76, and Lucio were teamed up, making quite a successful team, but Hana's mind was somewhere else.
Mei and Jamison were close, too close for Hana's liking. She'd always thought they were a couple, but wasn't completely sure. To that day she still didn't know whether or not they were a couple. While waiting for the match to begin, Hana watched through her MEKA as Mei wrapped her arms around Junkrat's waist in a hug. She'd never seen them kiss or anything of the sort, but just seeing them make any physical contact was like a slap to the face.
That one incident ruined the whole match for Hana. Her ultimates were off, and her injuries were worse than usual.
Hana stroked the cut up her arm.
"Some match." Jamison said. He placed his robotic hand on it, making the hair on Hana's arms stand up, "Ya alright?"
She struggled to get any words out. Jamison had never touched her before, and it felt amazing.
"Y-yeah. I'll be ok."
Jamison kept his eyes on her, a small smile on his face. He was probably just concerned about her; nothing else.
Hana looked away, her teenage self-consciousness getting the best of her. She wished she looked like Mercy, with silky blonde hair and sparkling blue eyes. Hana was not perfect like her fans thought. To her, she was just a regular girl from South Korea, and Junkrat was better off with a beautiful, curvy, intelligent girl like Mei.
"Ya did good yesterday." Jamison patted her on the shoulder.
Yeah right.
He was just saying that to make her feel better. That's probably what he and Hog were laughing about earlier. Hana sighed.
"See ya 'round." Jamison winked before leaving with Mako to the cafeteria. Hana stood alone in the hallway, wondering if what had just happened was a dream.
