Could you please write something about how each agent would react to the reader saying “I love you”? For Chamber, Sova, Gekko, Breach Skye & Reyna? Thank you in advance!!
A/n: So this request sat in my inbox since January 😖, I tried my best but it turned out more short but I hope you still enjoy <3. Also took some creative liberty like always so if anything is ooc or doesn't fit into the lore, I'm sorry.
Chamber
You hadn’t meant to say it. It slipped out while he was adjusting your clothes for one of those fancy events, hands steady, movements practiced, standing too close the way he always does.
“Mon chéri/e” he murmured, smoothing out a crease on your clothes. “If I didn’t know better, I’d say you were nervous.” He was smiling. That easy, knowing smile that always made your stomach twist in the worst way. Making you feel like he already fully knew what you were feeling for him.
And then it just... happened. “I love you.”
His hands stilled. Only for a second, but enough to feel it.
For once, it was him caught off guard. Then, without saying a word, he leaned in and pressed a soft kiss to your cheek.
“I know” he said, voice still smooth but quieter than usual. His eyes, though, were something else, steady, a little too serious.
Sova
He always brought you something warm after tough missions. Tonight it was tea, exactly how you liked it. He handed it over without a word, offering a quiet smile that always brought you a sense of relief.
You sat on the edge of your bed, still in your clothes from today's mission. He turned to leave like he always did, respectful of your space and never staying for too long, but something tugged inside you today.
“Sasha.”
He looked back, hand still on the doorframe.
“I love you.”
The silence that followed wasn’t heavy. Just... still. Then he let out a quiet laugh, soft and genuine, the kind of sound you wouldn't hear from him often.
“I hoped you did” he said, stepping back toward you.
He sat beside you on the edge of the bed, just close enough that his shoulder brushed yours. “Because I love you too.”
You reached your hand out to grasp his and just leaned against him. There was no need to say more after that.
Gekko
The infirmary was quiet except for the low hum of equipment and Wingman’s soft breathing from the corner. Gekko sat on the bed, shoulder freshly bandaged, still cracking jokes while you cleaned up the mess of supplies around him.
You tried to scold him (tried to stay annoyed) but your hands were shaking just a little. “Geez, you really freaked me out out there,” you muttered.
He looked at you then, a bit more serious than before. “Yeah… sorry” he said, rubbing the back of his neck. “I didn’t mean to scare you. I just—I couldn’t let you take that hit.”
Your stomach twisted. He said it like it was obvious. Like it wasn’t the kind of thing that could’ve ended him.
“You’re lucky I love you too much” you said, voice soft but firm, unable to help the way it slipped out.
He blinked, surprised, but only for a second. Then that familiar grin spread across his face, wide and a little crooked.
“Yo... seriously?”
You rolled your eyes, but your smile gave you away. “Yeah. Seriously.”
He didn’t say anything right away. Just reached over and took your hand, fingers warm and careful. “I was kinda hoping you’d say that someday” he said, almost sheepish now.
“I love you too. For real.”
And he didn’t let go of your hand, not even when you went to sleep that day.
Breach
Sparring with Breach was always intense but somehow still fun. You were both slick with sweat, catching your breath after the latest round. He hauled you up from the mat with one hand, grinning like he hadn’t just nearly knocked you flat.
“You’re getting bette,” he said, brushing off your shoulder.
“Thanks,” you replied, trying to keep your voice steady. Then, casually (too casually) you added, “I love you.”
He froze. That grin dropped in real time.
“Wait—what?”
You looked up at him, not backing down. “You heard me.”
There was a beat where neither of you moved. Then he stepped in, close enough to make your pulse stutter.
“You better mean that,” he said, voice rough around the edges.
“I do.”
The kiss he gave you was quick, heated and when he pulled back, his smirk returned, but this time, it was different.
Skye
You and Skye were walking the trail behind the base her favorite place, full of winding trees and animals. She was mid-sentence, telling you about some big woodworking project that she did years ago.
And then you said it. No build-up. No hesitation.
“Skye, I love you.”
She stopped mid-step, turning toward you. “Wait, for real?”
You nodded, suddenly unsure of yourself now that the words were out.
She stepped closer, bumping her shoulder into yours with a warm smile. “You know,” she said, “I was wondering how long it’d take you.”
Then she wrapped you in a hug that was incredibly comforting, her voice soft near your ear. “I love ya too.”
The rest of the walk was slower after that. Quieter. But every time you looked at her, she was already looking back.
Reyna
You didn’t expect her to respond. Not really. The two of you lay next to each other under the covers after a long, brutal mission, the kind that left it's mark. She was silent, eyes fixed on the ceiling and mind somewhere far away.
“I love you.” You said it into the stillness, barely more than a breath.
For a moment, she didn’t move. Didn’t speak.
Then, softly, so soft you almost missed it, she replied, “You shouldn’t.”
You turned to face her anyway. “But I do.”
She looked at you then, finally. Her expression unreadable, eyes dark and searching. “You’re foolish,” she murmured, brushing her fingers along your cheek like she couldn’t help herself.
“But I won’t lie” she added, voice even quieter. “I… feel something too.”
It wasn’t a declaration. It wasn’t a promise. But coming from Reyna, it was everything.
And that was enough.
If you came this far I hope you have an amazing day <3
