I’m participating in the McSombra Valentine’s day gift exchange! My giftee is @seehang and they had a bunch of lovely prompts that I ended up combing into one mushy fic.
Happy Valentine’s day, doll!

McSombra. Fluff. Romance.
She’s not sure what possesses her to take his hand, but she
does. Warmth spreads between her fingers as they leave the bar behind. A deep
rumbling chuckle moves against her back when they stop to let a car hover by.
“Where are
ya takin’ me, sugar?”
She turns
only her head. Throwing a sharp, glittering look over her shoulder, McCree
stares back with honey eyes. Even a little buzzed, they hold up well.
“Somewhere
private, vaquero.”
She tugs
him along as his hand squeezes hers.
“Yer secrets are always yers, ain’t they, Sombra,” he says, but she doesn’t have to look to see the soft calm on
his face.
His blind faith in her touch lifts
her heart. A long time passed by before she ever thought about love,
especially with someone like him. Her mind wanders back to their unintentional
meetings, the prolong talks with drinks and then kissing with no clear meaning.
It’s as if she was following a neon light in the darkness and stumbled upon
him.
Perhaps she just likes the smell of
pinewood and smoke upon his clothes. Or it may be the rumble in his voice when
he calls her darling.
@ribbons-halos, this is amazing! I love your writing, especially your Mcsombra works and this is just the loveliest thing ever! There is nothing more wonderful than to read about the vulnerability between these two – that they feel so safe and comfortable with one another that they allow themselves to have these moments of quiet love between them…the fact that McCree allows Sombra to get so close to him, especially when he feels uncomfortable with his prosthetic…the fact that Sombra believes that what she feels for McCree is actually love instead of simply finding mirth in their interactions.
The fact that she calls him her sun! ☀️ How romantic and endearing! The fact that Sombra spends so much time in the shadows and more than likely avoiding the light of day to keep safe – to see that Sombra refers to him as her sun is so important and humbling?
And be still, my heart! ❤️️ The part where Sombra teases him and has him begging for a simple kiss. These two are so adorable and the way you write them interacting so softly…I could go on and on with my commentary but let me just finish off by saying I love every single bit of this! Beautifully written.
Such an amazing contribution to the Mcsombra Valentine’s Day Gift Exchange! Thank you for participating and I hope you had fun!
