Courting Gifts Part 1~ BNHA/MHA Omegaverse headcanon

Starring: (aged up college or older) Midoriya, Bakugo, and Shinso x omega reader G: Fluff, some humor, sfw The guys are alphas for this part as that is just how I picture these three~ Tw: none for this one! W: 1,510 Masterlist~

This timid alpha does not understand courting gifts

He gets the tradition, however he doesn't understand why he can't just…buy you and gift you only All Might Merch

It takes several of his friends sitting him down for him to understand that not everyone's dream nest would be their boyfriend's mentor

He is so red and shy when he comes to you about it with a bouquet of lilies and some non-All Might-themed blankets of your favorite colors

Despite the initial All Might gifts from the time you started courting he is constantly getting little treats and putting them in your locker or if you catch him handing them over as he babbles about how pretty you are and how much he loves you (shaking the entire time)

Not huge on non-All Might name brands. It's not that he doesn’t care or isn’t willing to spend the money he just doesn’t really know anything about them and is more likely to get small things that remind him of you.

Baby loves to get cute couple things, matching pajamas, especially with mugs to match each other with sappy nicknames or quotes or designs on them

Clumsily wrapped hand picked bouquets from when he was on mission in another part of the country (yes he stayed up the night before to pick them in the moonlight)

Once he figures out what are your favorite foods he is going to bug the daylights out of Kacchan to teach him them. May even do something embarrassing to get him to agree to it. Don’t worry Kirishima assigned himself as a referee to be there so no one would get hurt

Once he sees you buy any of his own merch expect to be gifted every single thing that you comment you like when he’s reviewing the merch prototypes. 

It's embarrassing for him, and he does whimper he feels silly gifting them to you, but they make you happy. 

Seeing you curled up cuddling plushie him on his couch wearing one of his actual hoodies with “hoodie” written on the front, when he comes home from a mission? Oh his bawling woke you up, he couldn’t help it he was so touched 

Bakugo

This man? Oh he started with the courting gifts before you were even courting

No of course you didn’t notice he’s smooth af

Its cold out “Idiot tt, you really are helpless” shoves handwarmers into your hands. 

Somehow procures a blanket from his den when on mission and wraps you in it while on stake out on the roof…in another town…and yes it makes you smell just like his heady alpha scent 

Your stomach grumbles? Suddenly theres a snack in your hand/pocket

You yawned? Oh my somehow you took a nap on his shoulder. And no he didn’t get violent with anyone after for teasing him. He merely nodded at your thanks and went about the next task…yes Kirishima has photos of him looking lovingly at you. And Yes he may have scented you and taken a nap breathing in your scent.

You don’t recall when but several of those blankets of his ended up in your nest and he loves to mention that he’s missing them but not to you, no he enjoys seeing you blush and if you try to bring it up or apologize or return them to him he finds some other pressing matter and tells you to talk to him on it later…later never comes

When he asks to court you? Oh he makes you dinner picnic by the river, somehow gets you into some clothes of his or a jacket of his, and after dinner brings out some nice drinks for you and asks permission (not for you to be his oh no) if he could be yours. 

Yes he gives you a necklace or earring if you say yes he may have even made them

He is not stingy, will leave things for your nest everywhere. Constantly wants to scent you and things for you, expects you to scent him too and better be thorough about it

He tells the others to shut up they wish they were him if they ever try to tease him for it. He is so proud of your scent

This man is all for a clean house but gods having your blankets that you had him scent all over does not count as mess, those are all possible nest spots in his mind and he respects and protects them

He bought guest blankets because he buys you all the plushies and blankets and pillows you want for your nests and does not ever want someone to use those if they visit even if youre okay with it, those are your nest and he will protect your safe place with his life

Not huge on designer presents, but thats because he’s looking at the quality of a product. He will spend 1,000 on a blanket if he thinks the quality is worth it and it would make you happy. But 1,000 on a bookbag/bag you may only use three or four times and looks like one villains blow will ruin it? Nope

He is big on learning to make things, so expect him to build you furniture, or get Best Jeanist to help him so he can make you the worlds cutest and one of a kind bags and accessories (he makes some subtle couple bags his bookbag matches your bookbag/handbag)

Flowers are always on your dinning table and they always look perfect and fresh its his pride

Calm exterior, panicking internally. His first courting gifts are subtle like Bakugo but a bit more intentionally evident

“You were cold yes? Here use mine.” gives you his gloves and chuckles shyly “Dont worry I have more at home you use them”

Brings you little cat themed things because he hopes they’ll remind you of him. A little kitty keychain, some cat shaped onigiri in your favorite flavor with a little “You did well make sure you rest” on your work desk

Once you're courting he gives you everything, he would give you his soul if he could

Flowers? Everytime you meet up until you warn him theres no more space for more flowers

Plushies, bet lets go pick some out together. Turns the brightest shade of red when you compare them to him or if you ask him to scent them. A mess trying to hide his face in his hands or jacket collar.

Surprise presents are a thing too, they don’t happen often but when the thought occurs he will send presents to your job (even if you work together) to surprise you. Is gummy smiling when you talk about them later, he loves seeing how you melt with these

Loves having his scent on you as much if not more than Bakugo, though he is much more calm and lowkey about it

Would offer you his clothes and things to wear but will not just…put them on you or wrap you in them. He’s very soft and gentle when he offers.

Absolutely melts to see you in his oversized clothes, theyre huge on him-they swim on you and it ruins him. He's both horny, melting, shy, and falling in love all over again.

He bakes

You get a little bento box of baked goods (Eri is thrilled because she got to taste test everything) every so often

Makes you cake or pie or bread whatever you prefer for special events or home dates

He also likes to treat you to homemade ice cream, just leaves it in your work or home freezer with a little kitten on it for you to know its a gift from him

Another one that likes to make his gifts

They are a bit clumsy but he likes to make little clay figurines for you whenever he goes away on a long mission or has to go undercover and can't see you

You could have a whole shelf of the tiny watcher cats hes made (some of them are themed after your friends or dates you both have gone on like the grey cat with a tiny sakura on its head for when you both went to see them bloom)

This comes with the unexpected side gift of one or two cats from Eri she begged him to teach her to make for you (she also made him some so technically you both have couples cats made by Eri)

Shinso would love to give you designer things and he does. From brands that he knows or if he thinks you will like them~ Especially smaller brand concept artist stuff. 

Was given the idea from a job commission and thus has recorded his voice for you once while drunk to use as your morning alarm, ringtone for him, and alert message (yes it's him meowing thats the only meme one the others are scalding hot and yes he did record his alpha purr/growl)

“ don't cry baby ! ”

synopsis ! dabi's reaction to his daughter crying when he leaves for work.

warnings ! mother reader , soft dabi ♡ , fluffiness !! a bit of angst ... (?)

( # ) ── dabi ;

you and dabi along with your 2 years old daughter were spending lots of time together before dabi would be away for a busy mission with the league.

when it was time for dabi to go, you stood along with your daughter in the door and were bidding farewell since this mission he had was gonna be long and dangerous.

your daughter knew he was leaving but tears still filled her eyes since she didn't want him to go, she ran to dabi's legs and hugged him tightly, sobbing out that she wanted dabi to stay with you and her and sleep together comfortably in bed.

even you were worried and sad since dabi was a villain and he's always at risk of being apprehended or possibly even killed due to the dangerous things he had to do.

dabi was so heartbroken :(

“sweetie.. daddy has work to do, okay? he'll come back..” you were trying hard to comfort your child who was still sobbing and holding on for dear life at dabi.

“no! daddy has to stay! no leaving! don't leave..!” her sobbing tone and those tears on her cheeks were enough to bring dabi in such sad state..

he crouched down infront of his daughter who immediately hugged him tightly, crying even more as she begs for him to stay, saying that dabi will get hurt and she nor you didn't want that.

he hugged her small figure back, rubbing his hand against her back as you quietly watched in worry. “dont cry, princess. daddy will just be away for a while but he'll call you and mommy when he has time. he will make sure to come back home as soon as he can.” dabi tried speaking this time but your daughter continued crying.

“no! what if daddy doesn't come home? me and mommy will be lonely..!” she screamed while she wiggled in his hold, crying even more at the thought of dabi not coming home.

“why would you think that? daddy will always come back home. I'll even bring back little dollies that you can play with, hm? daddy will reassure you every night that he'll come back home, okay?”

you were relieved when your child started calming down a bit from crying. dabi has learned a lot into the years he's been with you and your 2 years old daughter, he wanted to be a good father to her unlike his own whom he despise.

he brought a book and watched videos on how to be a good parent and it always warms your heart that he's really trying to be the best he can.

him being a villain is not good at all for his family, that's why he's doing his best to be good for the two of you. he vows to protect you two from any harm and vows to bring you two happiness that you two deserves.

and he will always love you two. as his loving family.

he won't be the same as endeavor, he'll do his best to become a good father and good lover to you.

“daddy must promise to not be hurt when he.. comes back home.” your child sniffed as she looked at dabi who wiped her tears away with his hand covered in staples and his purple skin that he sees as disgusting. yet you two always hold it so gently and never see it as a disgusting thing about his body.

“of course daddy promises.” dabi chuckles lightly as he wiped all tears from your daughter's face, she gave him another hug as he returned it with a small smile on his face.

“come here, doll.” he called out for you as you lightly giggled yet you joined the hug.

dabi always feels so safe when he has you two in his arms.

he doesn't need to go roaming around the city again like a homeless person who just casually burns people then often comes back to the league when on a mission because now he has a home to come back to.

and a family is waiting for him.

HEADCANONS REQUEST: ❝S/O who’s insecure of their laughter.❞

[ Fandom: Boku no Hero Academia ] [ Characters: Bakugou Katsuki, Togata Mirio, Aizawa Shota ]

「Headcanons of Bakugou, Mirio and Aizawa with an S/O who covers their mouth to hide their laugh.」

BAKUGOU KATSUKI

♤ A very observant person. He notices that you have a habit of covering your mouth when laughing and trying to contain yourself when something funny happens. Bakugou's not the type to confront you about it because it doesn't seem like you're bothered by it or anything. So he doesn't make a comment on it until things get serious ― when there's a visible change in your mood to the point it affects your actions.

♤ Only discovers that you're actually insecure and self-conscious by pure coincidence. He couldn't remember the full details but Kaminari, Ashido, and Sero were doing something dumb and everyone couldn't help but laugh at their stupid antics. Bakugou saw how hard you were laughing and Ashido pouts at you, telling you that it's not that funny and that you're not supposed to be laughing that hard. It was for a brief second, Bakugou saw how you smiled nervously and apologized while twiddling your fingers.

♤ Brutally honest to a fault. He doesn't beat around the bush about the issue and instantly confronts you about your insecurity. Playing dumb wouldn't work on him because he won't let you go until you tell him everything. After admitting how people made fun of you in the past and how it just became a habit, he gave you a look of confusion. Spare him okay? He just doesn't know why you should care about what other people think.

♤ And all of a sudden, he's reminded of how he sometimes tells you to shut up when you're laughing at him. He felt guilty, not knowing that your laugh actually bothered you so much. After your little confession, he grumbles an apology, referring to the times he would call you obnoxious for laughing at him. Bakugou will tell you how he likes you smiling and laughing because of him, so much that he's so embarrassed by it.

TOGATA MIRIO

☆ Mirio is a very bubbly and friendly guy, it's very common to see him smiling constantly. He has an odd sense of humor and often makes jokes which range from corny to puerile. Everything he does always manages to make you laugh a little, even though he's making a fool of himself for the sake of others' enjoyment. 

☆ Mirio is like a bundle of joy who's always the center of attention and someone who just has an infectious smile. This boy is always in a good mood with you around, smiling at everything. It takes him a while to actually realize that you have a habit of covering your smile when laughing. Mirio loves hearing your laugh and while you do occasionally smile, he has never seen you drop your hand. No matter what the situation is, you'd always cover your mouth as you laugh.

☆ There was one incident that happened that resulted in you laughing out loud, he can't really recall. But it was his first time seeing you laugh without a hand over your mouth to hide it from everyone. For a brief moment, he forgot what was funny and stopped to smile at you, happy to see you enjoying yourself. When you caught his gaze, your laughter died down and you looked away almost immediately not before muttering an apology for laughing too loudly.

☆ He frowns and asks you about it. Did you think you were being rude by laughing? He tries getting you to tell him why you're always covering your mouth when laughing. When you told him how people used to make fun of you for laughing too loud at something and that was the reason behind your habit, he was a bit surprised. He pulls you into a hug, telling you how you should never be ashamed of your own laugh.

AIZAWA SHOUTA

♡ He doesn’t think too much about it, not seeing how it's actually a problem. Aizawa doesn't laugh too often himself, always appearing to be stern and reserved in front of everyone. He just appears so lazy, always exerting very little energy in most situations, sometimes you wonder if Aizawa is incapable of smiling. But you were proven wrong when you see him crack a smile when he was recalling something interesting.

♡ Aizawa is not the type to crack jokes or capable of doing anything funny intentionally to make you laugh. But he does enjoy the sound of your laughter, knowing that you're in a good mood even though he's not the reason behind your laughter. He finds it quite endearing how you would cover your mouth when you laugh. And never thought much about your little habit of covering your mouth every time you laugh, he kind of just accepted it.

♡ One day, he came across you talking on the phone. You were preparing dinner with your phone on speaker as you talked with your friend. He peeked from the living room, hearing your friend recalling a funny memory. Aizawa watched as you laughed out loud as your hands were occupied with bits of flour and minced meat. When you noticed your lover staring, your immediate response was to feel self-conscious. You told your friend that you'd talk with her another day before hanging up. 

♡ Of course, he gets a bit worried when you start apologizing for how loud you were being. Aizawa confronts you, asking why you should be apologizing in the first place and he won't let you go until he gets the answer he wants. So you reveal to him how some of your acquaintances always told you to chill out when you laugh out, which made you insecure and develop a habit of covering your mouth. He comforts you, patting your head and telling you that he does not care and loves to see you laugh out loud.

And now for another MHA headcanon to wash down that awful political aftertaste: Koda is not only big on recycling, but he's big on sustainable living in general, whether buying food, bath products, clothing, etc... His hero costume is even made from recycled materials.

Frivolities

character: hawks

reader: gender neutral

content warnings: intrusive/suicidal thoughts

notes: also on ao3. 2k word count. pre-series. "hawks-centric" in a way that's more about hawks and less about the reader.

Soul sold, the boy known as Takami Keigo was no more. A pretty bird, Hawks preformed tricks for pellets, beaten and battered, and at age eighteen he was ranked tenth in the Pro Hero Charts. An impressive feat, for one so young.

Working hard and wishing he wasn’t working at all, he woke up again and again. And again and again. And again and again.

---

He remembers suffering, pain, and endurance. Most of it came from living within the organization. His handlers, while allowing him more of an insight to the world than ever before, were no less cruel than the ones who drove him there in the first place. As the years passed by, he grew far from that scrawny little boy he had once been—but he still felt no more of a man than before. And when he opened up his own hero agency, he constantly felt waterlogged and wrung out; schedule leaving little time for rest, always something to do, always on the move.

Despite his successes—going above and beyond, reaching higher and higher—he couldn’t seem to escape the cage he had been placed in, all those years ago. There were many rules he had to abide by and regulations to follow; driveling and snooze-inducing topics that didn’t really matter in the end and that he didn’t care much for. He couldn’t help but laugh about it—like a pet bird, he thought. Cooped up and clipped wings, meant only to flutter an inch off of the ground, stand there pretty, parrot phrases said a thousand times over.

He wasn’t allowed any friends. They were a distraction, they told him; he should work hard, keep busy. There was even the order that he was not allowed to date. Any type of relationship, whether it was romantic or sexual, would not only be quickly made public but labeled as a sign of rebellion and opposition to the organization that had treated him so well. Manipulative. Deliberately threatening what little privacy he had. Stripping him bare for all the world to see.

When he met you, he was twenty. He had recently ranked within the top five in the Pro Hero Charts. Despite trying to beat it out of him, Hawks had always had a bit of a rebellious streak—a life of strict handlers and rigorous outlines had shaped him quite a bit differently than they had expected—but after taking the fifth slot, he had decided to test exactly how secure the latch on the cage door really was. And while that might sound like something much more devious to an onlooker, for Hawks, it simply meant rattling the bars for a bit. For fun.

He phrased it much like he’d heard countless of times before, scrolling through social media: he needed some mental health days. He didn’t know this himself—didn’t allow himself the chance to know, really—but he really did need it. He went on vacation. It took a lot of convincing for it to get approved by his handlers, much less getting it past the higher ups—he just ranked fifth, it’d do wonders to ride that high, they insisted.

Regardless, his time off—his first ever official, willing, much awaited for and desired time off—went through. To celebrate, he slept for most of the first day, only leaving his bed to grab takeout at the front door and take the occasional trip to the restroom. He lavished in his slumber; since the transfer, he couldn’t find a single time in his life where he could sleep in late—much less was physically able to.

It was by the second day that the initial appeal wore off, and he found himself fidgeting about. Tossing, and turning, and very much incredibly bored; he missed his work, he found. As troublesome and uninspiring as the fact was—it was sadly true. Inevitable, even. At that point, he had spent the majority of his life working. It felt wrong to not be on his feet. He felt guilty channel-surfing.

The rest he had so constantly craved didn’t feel quite as rewarding as he thought it would be.

---

On the third day, he had decided a quick trip to the corner store couldn't hurt, as long as he was fast enough not to get noticed on the way there and back. He had to stretch his wings, surround himself with the sounds of everyday life. He was going stir-crazy cooped up in his nest—and that was a depressing thought. He put his shoes on and took a moment to ponder. Hawks was confident about his speed and agility—a nondescript trip to the convenience store should be easy. Within the organization, he was praised for his covertness, after all—was the fastest-rising hero, after all. It should have been easy.

It was not easy.

It was a saying that was ripped right off of a certain article headline—he was too fast for his own good. Despite his reflexes, despite all the training, the drills, the hardships he had to endure up until that point, he was just a bit too quick on the draw. When you are at your most cautious, that is when you are most likely to make a mistake—he had been told that many times. After ranking fifth, he had stopped listening.

It was on this third day that he met you. He didn’t run into you—couldn’t—but he very nearly did, bracing himself against the automatic doors, causing them to pop out of place by mistake. This is where he stumbled, weight suddenly shifting, but then he felt hands upon him—one on his shoulder, another at his chest, firm—and he regained his balance once more.

“Are you okay?”

He looked up. Your concern was plastered on your entire face—the angle of your brows, the seriousness of your eyes, so trained on him that he was struck, suddenly. Of all his years of being Pro, he has had a multitude of people worried for his well-being. At the top of the charts, it came with the job. Cheering, and screaming, and crying; many people cared about him.

When they needed him, that is.

You looked at him. You looked into his eyes, like you were peering into his soul, and asked him—“Are you hurt?”

He tried convincing himself that this was not a fight. Every bone in his body trembled with the force of it. It left him unable to breathe, the adrenaline coursing through him with an intensity he’s never felt before. He could be bleeding, he thought, idly. “No,” he said, eventually. He felt like he was losing. “No, I’m good. Dandy, even.” And it was habit more than anything, when he flashed you his most charming smile, “But thank you for worrying. I really appreciate it. Really.”

Sweat caught in his hairline, threatening, and he watched as you took in his features. The longer you stared, the more self-conscious he felt; how strained he must look, how tense his muscles must be beneath his shirt—you still held him, he realized, faintly. He felt like passing out.

And with that, he shot you finger-guns. He struck a little pose. He hated it. “I’m okay!” he backed away now, sidestepping around you and out the front door. Popping it back into place with more force than necessary, he laughed—a rough, loud thing—and with a wave of the hand, “Have a good day!” And he took off into the skies.

Rocketing above the clouds, he told himself—I’m okay. I’m okay. I’m okay.

---

Two days later, he remembered that he had wanted the sort of fried food you can only get at a convenience store. The salty-cheap kind, the perfect kind, the quickie-chickie kind. The city was big, he thought, the world even bigger, so when he nearly ran into you again he felt as if someone must be pulling at some unseen strings somewhere, up in the heavens. Like he could look up to find the curtains rising. They never did, of course. They didn’t exist.

What he got instead was your voice again—exactly the same from within his dreams—asking, “Are you okay?” Hands at his shoulder and chest, you steadied him. The door clunked beside you.

Eyes skybound, he pursed his lips. Puckered them. Exhaled. Then he nodded, slipping out of reach, and jammed the door straight. “Yes,” he said. “Yes, I’m good. Great, even.” And even though his wings fluttered and he felt his feathers start to rise, he asked with a quirked brow—“Are you okay? I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

It took you a moment to answer, watching him toe further and further away. “Yeah, I…” And it was at this point where a familiar glint in your eyes appeared, and you did a double-take. “Hawks?”

Despite the immediate bile rising to the back of his throat, his smile came more naturally this time. Dancing backwards, he flapped his wings; once, twice, he was off his feet. Saluting, he spun, gave a flourish, and was off.

---

He was twenty, number five, and on vacation for the very first time. Fried chicken was good, he remembered, sitting in the shadow of a tree, down several back-roads, obscured from sight, and chowing down on some karaage next to you. It was the day after your second encounter; he had entered stage left to see you center stage once again.

His sixth day off in a row; summer, the sun setting down towards the horizon line, and the convenience store door had been knocked out of its slot once again. He had laughed, head thrown back at the obscurity of it all, and rammed it back into place. He offered to buy you a snack, an apology for bothering you so—he insisted—but once he had his receipt, he didn’t turn tail and run. Not this time.

No, he invited you to come sit with him, enjoy the sunset, talk for a bit. You were on his mind, constantly, and he almost told you as much. Almost. You, who looked at him, point-blank, and not wondered for your own safety. He learned your name and your occupation, what it was that you did throughout the day, and what brought you to the corner store. He stuffed his face; and it’s not like you didn’t know who he was—you recognized him, of course—but there was just something about you. He couldn’t quite place it. Your pretty eyes and the way they looked at him. His heart thumped in his chest.

What was it about you?

He pondered this as he spoke, vividly, about his favorite hero. He couldn’t quite remember how the two of you got on that topic in the first place but you were laughing at the unconventional taste of it—and everything else then ceased to matter.

His heart thumped in his chest. He couldn’t breathe. The hairline at the nape of his neck was damp with it—the sudden urge to fling himself across the country. To fly so far up, so fast, he’d completely lose air. You looked at him, so earnestly, and he thought: oh. Your face. Your smile. Your eyes on him and him alone. And he was used to the attention—number five and all wrung out—but there was something about your gaze that struck him to his core, made him feel frozen and burned from the inside-out all at once.

Oh no.

He was not allowed to date. He didn’t have that luxury, the private life. No, he could not be with you. Oh, how he wanted to. Wanted to flip out his phone—and show you the little Endeavor charms, just to see you point out all the artistic liberties—and ask for your number. To ask you out. Hope and pray a disposable face mask would help disguise him enough. He considered the possibility of renting out an entire restaurant, just to secure his own concealment. He hoped you liked umai.

But would the staff talk? Would you? Would there be lenses positioned at the entrance, already phoning the tabloids—already phoning his handlers? The Secret’s Out! Love Bird Hawks!

He wiped the grease away on the leg of his pants, hand lingering over his pocket. You were telling him about your favorite hero—their aesthetics and sense of justice—but you paused, suddenly. He looked up.

“Oh,” you seemed nervous. “N-not that you aren’t amazing as well, Hawks...! Didn’t you just rank number five? And it’s only been, what, two years since you debuted?” You tinkered with the keyring in your lap as you spoke, fiddling with the dangling chain, almost discreetly. He couldn’t help it. He looked down. There, between your clamped fingers, sat an acrylic charm. The light hit it, just so, revealing a brilliant scarlet. You fidgeted. A feather.

His smile felt strained, threatening to disappear off of his face as the bile rose once more. “Time moves so fast,” it felt like a slog. Each day crawling along with an itinerary several miles long. He wanted to tear it up, desperately, into tiny little shreds, burn it to ash, and throw himself into the pyre as well. “Tenth feels like it was just yesterday.”

He didn’t ask for your number. He resolved to never go to that corner store ever again.

On that sixth night, he laid in bed, alone, thinking about his favorite hero. Number two. He wondered what that was like, as he watched the moon up in the sky, higher than he could ever dream of flying; his body the cage that tethered him. He wondered what that was like. Number two. Endeavor, his brilliant, blazing inferno in the sky, embers in his wake, impeccable track record, eyes on the prize—but never enough. Hawks watched the moon up in the sky between the gaps in the window blinds, strained and worn out, chasing, and wondered—will it ever be enough?

---

The next morning, he went back to work.

Hiiii!! Thank you so much for the kind words and I can definitely do this for you!

dabi x idol! reader secret relationship

As an idol, you have a very busy schedule. From recording to dance practice to interviews to traveling and sometimes the overall pressure from fans and even yourself, it can be stressful.

You and your group finally have some time to yourselves when you get a text.

“Hey, let’s meet at our spot.”

You get up from your bed, grab you jacket, bag and phone and head out of your room. You see a couple of your band mates in the kitchen at the table.

“I’m heading out, do you guys need or want anything,” you ask them

“Can you bring back some chicken for dinner? I’ve been craving it,” Yongji, your band mate and best friend says

“Sure! Amelie, would you like anything,” you ask

“I’m cool with chicken too,” she says

“Okay! I’ll let you know when I’m on my way back,” you say

“Have fun!,” they say in unison

You and Dabi started dating a five months ago and your group, Flora, debuted 3 months ago. Company policy is that you’re not allowed to date for the first 3 years of group activity and if you get caught, you’ll be put on probation.

You decided to keep it a secret because you JUST started dating and you didn’t want to let him go. Yes, he is rougher around the edges than other guys, but he could be very sweet when he wanted to be. He also had a certain charisma that you just couldn’t ignore. An aura that you just couldn’t get passed.

Any time you have a moment with him, you cherish it always since they can be few and far in between. You both try to call or text as much as possible since you don’t see each other much.

You made it to the meeting place first and took in the view of Seoul. Everything seemed so small from where you were. There was no stress of school, no worrying about your vocals or dance moves. It felt like you were separate from everything.

A pair of hands cover your eyes.

“Guess who,” the husky, low voice says

“Hmmm let me think…Felix from Stray Kids,” you say teasing

“Haha very funny,” he says

“I was only kidding Touya,” you say, playfully pushing him

You’re the only person he lets call him that.

He cups your face in his hands and kisses you deeply. You wrap you arms around his neck and he pulls you in closer.

He pulls away and both of your breaths are heavy.

“I missed you…so much,” he says

You both catch your breath and he lays a blanket out for both of you to sit/lay on. He brought some of your favorite snacks and some drinks and organized them on the blanket.

“I figured we could have a little picnic before you need to get back. I know they’re pretty strict with curfew,” he says

“Touya,” you say feeling touched

“We don’t get to see each other much and as proud of you as I am, I just want to make every time I see you special. You deserve that much at least,” he says looking out into the distance instead of really looking at you

“Baby, look at me,” you say

He turns his head and you pull him in by his chin and place a soft kiss on his lips.

“What was that for,” he says with a smirk on his lips

“Just to say thank you for always making me feel special,” you say and kiss him again

“It’s so weird no to see you as much after school as I used to. How’s Yongji by the way,” he says

“She’s good, still her bubbly and outgoing self. She helps me get through the struggles of this whole lifestyle. It’s nice to have someone I grew up with go through this with me,” you say

“That’s good. What about the other members,” he asks

“They’re good too. I’m surprise you care so much,” you say jokingly

“Hey, I care because it’s you. I care about you and how you’re doing and how you’re being treated. You’re…the most precious thing to me,” he says honestly

You rest your head on his shoulder and just look out over the city. He places a hand to your cheek and caresses it.

You put your hand on his and caress the back of his hand with your thumb.

He places a kiss on your forehead.

“Do you wanna eat some of the snacks now,” he asks

“Sure,” you say smiling

You spent the next couple of hours talking about classes and the shows you’ve been on and anything else that may come to mind.

“What do you wanna do next? I was thinking we could go to the park,” he says

“I would love to, but I don’t know if that’ll be safe,” you say

“C’mon, isn’t that the best part of being in a secret relationship, the risk of getting caught,” he says intriguingly

“Dabi…I don’t know,” you say honestly

“Y/N, I promise you’ll be safe. We’re gonna be in a spot that no one goes to, it’ll be fine,” he says reassuring you

“O-okay,” you say finally giving in

The whole time you’re on the way to the park, you can feel your nerves taking over. You worry about if someone’s watching you or if someone could be watching, but you’re also thinking about the thrill of sneaking around with the boy you love.

It reminds of Romeo and Juliet, of course without the problematic age difference and the unaliving. Two people from now different worlds, with different lives, trying to do what they can to make their love work.

Dabi holds out his hand as you both come to a brick wall with shrubbery covering it.

“C’mon my little bundle of nerves,” he says

“How did you-”

“Anyone could feel them radiating off of you from miles away,” he says

“Let’s go,” he says, hand still outstretched for you

You pensively grab hold, as he guides you through the shrubbery that was hiding a hole in the wall.

“This leads to the farthest part of the park, where no one ever comes and no one can see us,” he starts,“it has a giant field and the flowers are in bloom right now, so I figured it would be the perfect place for a date with you.”

When you finally make it, you’re blown away by how beautiful it is.

“Dabi…this is incredible,” you say with an awe filled voice

“I’m glad you like it,” he says with a proud smile

“If you don’t mind me asking, how did you find this place,” you say curiously

He pauses for a second

“I wanted to get away from home,” he says honestly

“The sun was setting, but I just couldn’t take being there, so I left and I came to the park, but there were so many people. None of them were who I wanted to be with, so I walked until I made it here. I don’t really know if no one’s ever come up here, but I’ve come at all times and no one is ever here when I am so, now this can be our place,” he says

“I’m sorry I haven’t been around much,” you say sadly

“You don’t have to feel guilty or sad nor should you blame yourself. You’re following your dream and I couldn’t be more proud of you,” he says

“Yeah,but..I wish I could be there for you more,” you say honestly

“Y/N, you have a talent and it needs to be shared. You have one of the most amazing voices I’ve ever heard and you shouldn’t be caged like a bird. You need to be free to share that voice. Don’t let my problems stop you from experiencing this chance to the fullest,” he says, leaving you speechless

“Didn’t expect me to say that much, did ya,” he says, causing small giggles to escape both of you

“No I didn’t,” you say through laughs,“but thank you. I’ll continue to make you and our fans proud. I’ll work hard, but I also promise to be there for you whenever I have even a millisecond of free time.”

“I’ll be cheering you on every step of the way,” he says

You look at your phone and it reads 6:30 pm.

“Oh my gosh, I didn’t even realize the time. Ugh I should head back now. Yongji and Amelie are waiting for me,” you say

“I guess this is see you later then,” he says and you notice a sting of sadness in his voice

You kiss his right cheek, then his nose, move to his left cheek and lastly his lips. You place on them a deep and lingering kiss.

“I-I love you, Touya,” you confess honestly

“I’m not good at this kind of stuff, but I l-love y-you too,” he says nervously

“Text me when you get back in. I’ll leave after you,” he says and places a peck on your lips before you go.

As you keep walking, you look back to make sure he’s watching. To make sure he sees you and feels the love you feel for him. To see if he knows just how hard you’re going to work. To let him know that no matter how big you get, you won’t let him go. You will be there for him always.

I hope you enjoyed and as I said in my previous text post, I am so sorry for lack of writing as I have been going through so many changes irl, but I will try to set aside time when I can to write and post. Thank you so much for your request. All requests are appreciated and I do enjoy taking my time to give y’all a story that you and I are both proud of.

MHA Headcanons: Mawata Fuwa

These headcanons are fanmade and may not necessarily reflect the manga's canon.

Mawata Fuwa's Quirk (in this headcanon at least), Cotton Candy, lets her create various shapes/objects/weapons by producing cotton candy from her body.

Overusing this Quirk could cause her blood pressure to rise or her blood sugar to crash, potentially resulting in myocardial ischemia, cardiac arrhythmia or, in the worst case scenario, a heart attack/cardiac arrest.

Mawata often carries EpiPens with her in case heart starts to give out from overusing her Quirk.

Her hero costume resembles a sort of combination of Itsuka Kendo's and Izuku Midoriya's hero outfits (a pink variant of Kendo's outfit for the upper half and a sky blueish variant of Deku's outfit for the lower half).

Mawata is kind of a martial arts movie enthusiast, which may be why she decided to practice martial arts under Gunhead's agency.

She is also a bit of a gamer, being pretty good at games like Fortnite and PUBG.

Feel free to use these headcanons in any way you see fit.

Neighbourly ♥ Keigo Takumi

Word Count: 14k

Triggers: The usual bad language you can always expect from me, and some spicy spice towards the end

Description: You meet your neighbour Hawks under some special circumstances and he decides you need to become more than neighbours

Author’s Note: Hi guys! Thank you so much for treating my first post with so much love. As a gift, I give you this monster. Let me know if you’d like a part two! It’s not been checked so apologies for any spelling/grammar mistakes.

Requests are still open, here is a prompt list and what fandoms I write for

Your day had finally ended and you were exhausted, you couldn’t wait to get home to your bed, you couldn’t wait to get out of your work clothes, you couldn’t wait to sleep yourself into a coma.

But first you needed to make it to your door and it looked like your neighbour wasn’t going to let you do that so easily.

After reaching your floor, you immediately spotted the figure laid up against the wall beside your door. There wasn’t really any way to ignore him because sprouting from his back was a large set of blood-red wings. Fallen angel was the first thing that came to your head.

At the time, you had no idea this man was your neighbour. As far as you were aware, he was just a (Very pretty) stranger and you lived alone, you weren’t taking any risks.

You stayed at the top of the stairs so you had a quick exit and your pepper spray was poised at the ready. “Hey,” you called out, trying to be gentle whilst also being loud enough to stir awake the guy sleeping near your door. It looked to work as he moved his head from side to side and started to grumble. “You okay?”

His eyes snapped to yours, a shocking yellow which seemed brighter than the humming lights above you. Again, you found yourself wondering if you’d discovered an Angel at your door. Surely that was a good sign, right?

“Who’re ya?” He asked, eyes glaring. Your theory about him being some sort of angel went straight out the window as soon as you heard the slur coating his words.

You pointed over to the door he was next to, “I live in number twenty-four.”

His eyes moved to the door next to him before looking back at you, “no you don’t, Mrs Cheesepuffs lives there.”

“Mrs Chesney-Wolfe moved out last week, think she wanted to be closer to her family or something, so I moved in on Tuesday.” You explained.

The ethereal looking drunkard in front of you threw his head back, slamming it harshly against the wall. If he felt it, he didn’t give any sign. “Mrs Cheesepuffs left without even saying goodbye to me? I know she wasn’t my number one fan, but that’s brutal.” The slurring in his words only added to the sad tone that curled his syllables in, melting into a sob as he finished speaking. 

You weren’t sure what to do as he moved his head into his hands and began to cry. From what you’d learnt from the neighbour next to you, Mrs Chesney-Wolfe was your stereotypical old lady who chose to complain about everything possible, no one was sad to see her go. Except for this guy apparently. 

“Are you- were you a friend of hers or something?” You asked, trying to figure out who the hell he was in the hopes it would help you get rid of him. The last thing you wanted to do right now was deal with some drunk fool who’d chosen your doorstep to nap on. It was your turn to have a nap dammit.

“No, we were arch-nemesis, but she was the best enemy I’ve ever had.” He continued to cry, his dramatics making you more uncomfortable. “There wasn’t a week that didn’t go by where she didn’t try to get me kicked out of this building.”

“You live here?” You perked up a bit. Okay, he lived here, that meant you could just direct him to the right floor and then be on your merry way to your bed.

“Yeah, I live upstairs.” He waved his hands towards the stairway that led to the next floor before flopping his hand back on the floor, as though it suddenly weighed a hundred kilograms. “I wanted to tell Mrs Cheesepuffs… I don’t remember, but it was really important. And now I’ll never get to tell her!” He began bellowing and sobbing again.

“Guess there’s nothing else to do but go to bed then,” you responded, not really able to sympathise for a man who was clearly letting the alcohol he’d had do all the talking.

“No, I can’t leave yet without telling her the thing,” he pushed, looking at you with pouty lips and watering eyes. He should have looked pathetic. Why did his eyes remind you of that Fallen Angel painting by Alexandre Cabanel? Clearly you were as sleep deprived as this man was drunk. 

In truth, you’d spent most of the week moving in and that day was your first time back at the cafe, it shouldn’t have been all that busy but there was some sort of convention happening down the road which meant the place you worked was stock full all day.

“You don’t even know the thing,” you argued with a huff, wanting this exchange to be over and done with.

“But it was important!” He cried out.

“Dude, how many drinks did you have?”

He stopped crying instantaneously, and started giving you a death stare. It seemed he was embracing his inner Mrs Cheesepuffs as he eyed you up and down with disgruntlement. “That’s a rude question, what are you implying?”

“You think that's rude?” You chuckled lowly. “We don’t even know each other but you’re stood in front of my door, blocking me from getting home, crying about some woman who, in the nicest way, seemed like a bitch.”

He took a brief moment to take in your words, staring at you with that same hatred glare, before making it disappear as quickly and as easily as he had done with his earlier tears. He rested his head back against the wall, closing his eyes for a second. “Hm, I guess you’re right, that’s not very ‘No.2 Hero’ of me is it?”

“You’re a hero?” Of course he was. You were an idiot. You hadn’t been in this area long but you’d seen posters of him everywhere, he was a big deal. And he was on your doorstep, crying over an apparent cheese puff of a human being.

“Yes, number two hero, Hawks,” he repeated. “You don’t recognise me?”

You shrugged, choosing what you figured was the easier option. “I’ve just moved into the area, and I’ve never been into the superhero thing, no offence.” If he thought you didn’t care for him, then maybe he’d stop bothering you. Plus, it wasn’t entirely a lie. Whilst you knew of super heroes (it was hard to avoid them), you weren’t as obsessed as some people tended to get. 

“None taken, that probably works in my favour because this would really ruin my reputation if anyone found out.” His tone was much more relaxed now, there was still a slur but his emotions seemed to be calming down. He also seemed to be getting very sleepy. “I’m sorry for blocking your door.”

“It’s okay, I’m sorry Mrs Cheespuffs abandoned you.”

He smiled ever-so-slightly, it was just a brief lift of his lips but it had your heart skipping a beat. “I’ll get over it, she’s not the first girl to break my heart and she won’t be the last.” Your brain immediately started to wonder if that meant he was single, though you tried to slap away those thoughts, because it shouldn’t matter to you if your neighbour was single or not. 

Hawks reached out a hand, making a grabby motion with his fingers. “Can you help me get up? The room is spinning a lot.”

You debated it for a minute before concluding that this was probably the fastest way for you to get to your bed. “Sure.” You wandered over and helped him stand up as best you could. He wasn’t light, you couldn’t tell if that was because of the muscle he was clearly packing or the gigantic wings on his back though.

“Ooft.”He grunted as his chest slammed against yours, you taking the brunt of his weight as you balanced him back on his feet. His eyes scanned over your face, seemingly becoming enraptured whilst all your attention was fixed on making sure neither of you fell to the ground. “Oh, hey, you’re cute up close.”

“Dude, can you even stand?” You gritted out, not even hearing what he said as you pushed against him.

“Am I not standing right now?” He looked down at his feet, chuckling a little bit when he noticed how much smaller your feet seemed next to his. He started giggling. “I bet you have little piggies.”

“I’m standing you up right now, this is more me than you,” you complained, once again ignoring what he said. You’d actually heard his comment about having little piggies, but seeing as they made zero sense to you, you figured the night would go a lot easier if you just ignored him. Oh, how wrong you were. Nothing about that night was easy for you.

“You’re such a good Samaritan, have you thought about becoming a hero?” He queried.

“Not my scene,” you replied, working to wrap one of his arms around your shoulder so you could take his weight a bit easier. “You live upstairs right?”

“Yeah,” he mumbled, once again staring rather intensely at your face. He couldn’t help himself, now that he was up close and personal, and your features weren’t blurring in and out of focus, he could finally make out your facial features and they were all so cute. He couldn’t decide if he wanted to squeeze your cheeks or kiss your lips.

“Come on then.” It was the only way you were going to get to bed. You couldn’t just leave him laying in the hallway, especially seen as he was meant to be some big hero. If anyone found out you’d abandoned the number two hero in a hallway, you were sure you’d get more shit for it than he would for being a public menace. 

When you reached the stares Hawks did actually help out, taking back most of his weight and using the rail to pull himself upstairs, rather than relying on you entirely. You made it up in no time, then you came to your next hurdle. His locked door. “Where are your keys?”

“Pocket, I think.” He made no move to take them out of his coat pocket and so with a sigh you reached in yourself, making him jump slightly. “Whoa, hey, if you want to cop a feel you need to buy me a drink first.”

“Noted.” You said the word as blandly as possible, all you planned on doing was getting him to bed, then you’d avoid him as much as possible and hope he doesn’t end up on your doorstep again anytime soon.

You found the key in his left pocket and used it to unlock the door.

His apartment was impressive, way bigger than yours, but he was the number two hero so he probably got all the big bucks whilst your barista job got you just enough. Trying not to get too bitter over the very different world you knew the pro-hero in your arms must live in, you walked further into his living room that connected to a humongous kitchen. It looked like had had the whole floor to himself.

“Which way?” You questioned, wanting to get this visit over and done with, standing in an apartment this big and shiny was making you feel very small.

He directed you towards a door which once opened revealed another massive room with a mammoth bed in the centre. It looked more like a nest, covered in a multitude of different pillows. One of them looked so fluffy, you’d probably feel like you were sleeping on a cloud.

Before putting him down on the bed you turned him around and began to push on the thick coat he was wearing. “Let’s get your jacket off,”

As your arms worked on pushing the jacket down your arms, he leaned his head forward, resting it in the crook of your neck. Then he felt him take in a deep breath. “Mm, you smell really good,” he mumbled, nose skimming up your neck, and when he moved back down, he did so with his lips. “Fuck, really good.” Once his jacket was completely off, his hands moved up, gripping your waist as he burrowed his head deeper, his teeth grazing your skin all of a sudden, pulling a gasp from your lips whilst shivers moved through your bones. It wasn’t an awful feeling, just wholly unexpected.

Not as unexpected as when he suddenly pulled you backwards onto the bed and took you with him, pulling you down on top of him. “Whoa,” you squealed. You knew you should have done more, should have pulled away and stepped back, but the man was a puppet master, pulling on your strings with every graze on your skin. He’d started kissing you. They were gentle pecks, but he kept hinting he wanted to do more every time his teeth caressed your neck.

“Fuck,” he breathed out as he thrust his hips up into yours, letting you feel all of him. Every glorious inch. 

Unfortunately, that rut of his hips into yours was exactly what you needed to wake you up from his spell

“Shit, let go of me.” You pushed with your arms and pulled away with your body, shuffling out from under the wings that had at some point wrapped around you without you even noticing. Once a safe distance away, you pointed at the hazy-eyed man posed laid-back on his bed. “Nothing is happening tonight, you’re way too drunk and I’m way too sober.”

He cocked his head to the side, his eyes half-closed and a goofy, yet charming, smile bending his lips upward. “You’re cute.”

“You’re frustrating,” you retorted, trying your best to stay on the offensive. You weren’t sure how much more you could take, you just knew if he kissed you again you’d probably let him just have his way with you. Just from that thrust alone, you could tell he packed enough to not even need to be good at sex, his size would be enough pleasure just by itself. Still, Hawks gave the aura of someone who knew exactly what they were doing in the bedroom, and that was even more dangerous.

“What will it take for me to get something to happen?”

He was going to remember this conversation in the morning, not with how drunk he was, so you decided to play along, at least he wasn’t trying to pull you back into bed. “Ten dates.”

“Ten?!” He guffawed.

You shrugged. “I’d normally say three but after tonight I’ll need you to prove you’re a gentleman.”

With that, you left his bedroom, thinking it would be safer to put some distance between the two of you.

“Where are you going?” He called out.

“To get you water and some painkillers!” You heard him grumble, but couldn’t make out his words. The kitchen was a big distance from the bedroom, his place was just that big. You wondered if he ever felt lonely, because of the place's size, you couldn’t help but also notice how empty it felt. You wondered if maybe that was the reason why he’d gotten really drunk tonight and gone to Mrs Cheesepuffs in the hopes of some late night company, even if that company involved him getting yelled at and berated.

By the time you got back to his room, you found him sound asleep on his bed. You left the water and painkillers on his bedside table, then you finished with removing his shoes and his jeans. You’d spent about five minutes debating whether or not you should take the jeans off, but then figured he’d wake up very uncomfortable if you did leave them on, and he’d already have a hangover from hell. You’d made a point to not look at his crotch whilst doing it as well.

♥♥♥

The next morning you thought about Hawks, wondering if he was okay and handling his hangover okay. You thought about maybe making him a little care package and taking it upstairs, it would have been the neighbourly thing to do after all. In the end, you decided against it.

Hawks was charming, even whilst being as drunk as a skunk, but he was a big time hero and you were just a barista. There wasn’t enough in common between you, other than the fact that you lived in the same building. You figured you’d just carry on living your life with the odd moment where you bumped into him in the hallway, maybe dealt with him after a bad night again.

Of course, much like the night before, your neighbour had other ideas.

At ten in the morning there was a knock at your door, you’d dressed for the day already, getting ready for your shift which started at lunch time. When you opened the door you were greeted by the person you least expected.

“Howdy, neighbour!” Hawks greeted you with a smile he probably gave all his fans, the kind of smile that had you smiling back.

“Hawks?”

“Oh good, you remember me,” he replied.

You couldn’t stop staring at him, not because he was even more beautiful in daylight (which he really was) but because he wasn’t showing any signs of a hangover which he definitely should have been suffering with considering how drunk he’d been acting the previous night. “Yeah, I’m more surprised you remember me, you were pretty drunk last night.”

“Right, that’s why I’m here, I’m bringing you an apology in the form of fatty foods and caffeine.” He held up a carrier bag in one hand and a tray that had two cups on it. He nodded to the room behind you. “Can I come in?”

So much for your plan of keeping your distance from him, you guessed. Still, it wouldn’t hurt to let him say sorry for your hospitality, especially when whatever was in that bag of his smelled so good. “Um, sure.” You stepped aside and opened the door wider so he could walk in.

He did so with a skip in his step, once again making you wonder if he had really been that drunk last night when he seemed to be recovering so well. 

You watched as he immediately set off to the kitchen, clearly already knowing the layout inside, which wasn’t all that surprising now that you knew he had been close with the previous tenant. He walked over to the breakfast bar and plopped everything down before sitting in one of the stools, allowing his eyes to scan around your living room. 

There wasn’t much decoration to it, but you had only moved in.

“You’ve made this place look a lot nicer than Mrs Cheesepuff’s ever did,” Hawks complimented, eyes moving back to you and fixing you under their attention. He really did have a way of making you feel like you’re the most important thing to him in that room, and it was doing some wonderful (and terrifying) things to your stomach.

“Thanks.” You followed in his footsteps, sitting down in the stool next to him, choosing to face him so you could speak to him directly. “Can I ask something?”

“I have a question first.” When you nodded your head in allowance, he gestured over to the boxes he’d laid out with all the food. “I got a sausage and egg muffin, a bacon sandwich and some pancakes with maple syrup. Pick whatever you want and I’ll eat whatever's left.”

“Pancakes,” you said immediately with zero hesitation, grabbing at the box he’d pointed to.

“You have a sweet tooth, noted.” He commented, continuing on before you could think too much into what he meant by that. “I also brought coffee, I didn’t put anything in it. If you need any sugar, just let me know, neighbour, I have some in my apartment.”

You smiled at him and laughed slightly, getting up and opening a cupboard where you pulled out a bag of unopened sugar, you then went to the fridge and fetched some milk, setting them out on the breakfast bar. “I also came prepared.”

You two busied yourself with readying your drinks, you noted that he kept his coffee black, but added quite a bit of sugar. Seemed you weren’t the only one with a sweet tooth. As you watched him take a bite from his greasy bacon sandwich (a look of pleasure passing over his expression as he did so, that had your thoughts veering in a certain direction) he waved his hand at you, telling you to continue with what you’d been saying before. “What was your question?”

“Right,” you chimed, grateful for the distraction, “Mrs Chesney-Wolfe, who you like to call Mrs Cheesepuff-”

“Because she always smelt like cheesepuffs,” he explained.

“Of course she did,” you said with a roll of your eyes, this woman started to seem more like a cartoon character than a real person. “My question wasn’t about the cheesepuffs though, I just wanted to know what your deal was with her, you seem to like her but everyone else in this apartment hates her.”

“She was just a load of hot air,” he explained with a shrug, a quiet look of adoration settling on his face. “I was like everyone else in the building at first, thought she was a real bitch, but then one day I saved her on her walk home, she still continued to yell at me and complain to the landlord any time I made any noise upstairs, but she also started leaving me treats at my door. That’s what I wanted to tell her last night, by the way, that I loved the blueberry muffin she’d made me.”

You let out a breath you hadn’t realised you’d been holding, because the story was the first nice thing you’d heard about your neighbour, and the explanation also made Hawks’ actions from the previous night seem more cute than annoying.

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to live up to that, I can’t bake at all,” you advised, cutting into your pancakes.

“That’s okay,” he reassured, hitting your knee with his. You then realised that at some point he’d turned his body around so he was facing you and he’d boxed your knees inside of his. “I kind of have a theory she was slowly poisoning me with them anyway.”

“And you still ate them?”

“I have very little willpower,” he chuckled.

“Don’t you need willpower to be a hero?”

He waved his fork dismissively in the air. “What I lack in willpower, I make up for with my charm and sunny disposition.”

“Uh huh,” you hummed in disbelief.

“So tell me about yourself, neighbour.”

You cringed a little at his question, there wasn’t a lot you could say about yourself that would interest a hero who rescued grumpy old ladies in his spare time. You were just a barista making ends meet who spent her spare time watching whatever was good on the telly.

“Well, first of all my name is Y/N,” you chose to start with that, mainly because you wanted to hear him say your name and stop calling you neighbours all the time.

“Y/N,” he tested it on his tongue, smiling as it rolled off. He hadn’t disappointed you, the way he’d said your name, with an edge of huskiness, had filled you up with a warmth that was starting to become familiar whenever you were around Hawks. “I like it, as beautiful as its owner.”

“There’s that hero charm,” you pointed out, trying to not take his compliments too seriously.

He winked over at you. “Don’t act like you’re not enjoying it.”

And just like that, the warmth was rising up in your stomach like magma. 

The morning continued with him asking questions and conversations steering off from those. You talked about TV shows you liked, how you weren’t really big on heroes but you knew about them from some of the other things you did, like how you knew Best Jeanist because of his side hustle as a fashion designer. You talked about your job, and when you’d tried to belittle it by saying it was nowhere nearly as interesting as being a hero, he’d made a point to reassure you that he was interested, not letting you continue the conversation until you stated that you understood that.

♥♥♥

Your work day had started a lot better than it had when the hero convention was happening, that was over a week ago. The cafe had just started getting busy with the lunch time rush and your brain was back in your apartment, sharing that breakfast with Hawks where you discussed Mrs Cheesepuffs and a whole myriad of trivial things. 

It was the most fun you’d had in a very long time, and despite how much you tried to convince yourself it was just a one time thing - your neighbour simply thanking you for taking care of him in his drunken stupor - that didn’t stop the flare of hope you kept feeling whenever you thought about bumping into him again in the hallway.

You were always quick to dismiss that little bit of hope. You and Hawks weren’t ever going to happen, so there was no point in thinking too much about it.

You were cleaning up a previous customer's meal, cleaning up the counter when you felt someone gently tap on your shoulder. “Hey, little bird.”

Looking up, you found yourself staring at your winged neighbour. “H-Hawks?”

“Oh my god, that’s Hawks!” Your co-worker Becky practically screeched as she tried to handle the cup of coffee she was pouring for a customer whilst taking in the pro-hero that had magically appeared.

It wasn’t so magical for you, in fact you were getting a little concerned, it felt almost like your neighbour was stalking you. You were sure he’d never visited this cafe before, you’d have recognised his beautiful wings if he had. “What are you doing here?”

“I’m doing a patrol in this area today, now it's my lunch so I figured I’d stop in here and check out the goods.” You didn’t miss the way his eyes moved up and down your body when he said ‘goods’. 

“You know Hawks?!” Becky (who had somehow finished the coffee and served her customer in record time) moved to stand beside you.

Choosing to ignore your fangirling friend, you directed your words to your neighbour. “I’m working so I can’t sit and chat with you or anything.”

“That’s fine,” he shrugged, voice remaining easy and laidback. You preferred this Hawks over the cry baby that had been outside your door the other night. “Like I said, I’m just here for lunch, if you happen to also be here in my line of sight then that’s just a bonus I’ll happily accept.”

“Oh my god, Hawks is really here,” Becky continued to squeak from beside you.

You rolled your eyes at your co-worker, normally she was a lot more quiet than this. “Becky, go breathe in a paper or something, you’re worrying me.”

“What?” Your coworker started laughing a tad too loudly as she waved her hand frantically in the air. “No, I’m fine!” Despite her pushing, you didn’t believe it when she looked to the number two hero and started hyperventilating again. “It’s Hawks!”

“Nice to meet you too, Becky.” Hawks finally acknowledged her, giving her his best celebrity smile. You’d be lying if the confident look on his already far-too-good-looking face didn’t have your knees getting a little weak as well. What had them shaking was how his eyes only moved to her for a single second before they moved, almost naturally, back to you. As though he struggled to keep his eyes away from you.

Becky immediately started giggling and then she harshly grabbed on to your arm, digging her nails in slightly. “He just said my name!”

“Yes Becky, so did I, multiple times, never seen you hyperventilate over it” You hissed at your friend whilst trying to pry her off of you.

You probably weren’t being the nicest person in that moment but you were still recovering the shock from seeing Hawks again (in the place you worked, which was information you’d definitely not given him when you had breakfast together) whilst dealing with an excitable fangirl and a cafe that was quickly beginning to fill up with a lot of people who didn’t mind staring as the three of you had been conversing. 

She eventually dropped her hand and then started glowering at you. “You’re not Hawks.”

And you never would be, so this whole exchange was ridiculous and a waste of time. You and Hawks clearly lived in very different worlds, and you were sure he’d get bored of you soon.

“You have no idea how happy I am about that,” you chimed back, your sunshine tone juxtaposing the frown on your face as you petted the sore spot on your arm.

Far too casually, Hawks reached out and took a hold of your wrist after noticing the way you were holding it, his eyes dragged over the red marks. He frowned, but only for a second, then he was back to being his smiley self as he looked back over to you whilst letting his thumb smooth over where it hurt, comforting you. “Ouch little bird, be careful or you’ll break my heart,” he reprimanded mirthfully.

“Why do you keep calling me that?” You asked, wanting to change the subject and distract yourself from just how comforting his touch was to you, and how warm it was making you feel.

“What?” He cocked his head to the side.

“Little bird, what happened to neighbour?”

“Neighbour!?” You realised your mistake too late. There was no doubt your co-worker would badger you with questions about your neighbour every time you shared a shift now.

“Little bird fits you better,” he offered as fact.

“No it doesn’t, I don’t have wings like you,” you argued.

“No, but your laugh is as pretty as a bird's whistle, plus you’re tiny compared to me,” Hawks explained, his tone implying that all of that should have been obvious to you.

You didn’t understand what game he was trying to play, whether it was a game of pretend or competition, but you refused to play either way. “Is that a positive?”

“Just take the compliment, Y/N,” Becky reprimanded.

“I’d do what Becky says if I were you little bird,” Hawks warned, a chuckle ruining the seriousness of his statement and you found yourself smiling along with him. Becky was certainly acting terrifying.

“Excuse me?” A customer practically snared from behind Hawks, who politely stepped aside to reveal the suited man who was standing behind him. “Can you start doing your job so we can get to ours?”

And just like that, your good mood was wiped away. You didn’t blame the customer for getting annoyed, both you and Becky had ignored him for Hawks so he had every right to be frustrated. 

“Right away, sir, I’m sorry for the delay.” You pulled away from Hawks, creating some much needed space so you could concentrate on your reality rather than whatever fantasy Hawks was inviting you to spend some time in. “What can I get for you today?”

He didn’t stop glaring at you the entire time you took his order and though it was unnerving, you were used to it. 

As you went and got the customers drink, you couldn’t help but muse that it was a little bit funny that despite both you and Hawks being in customer service roles (his was a bit more extreme than yours, but it was serving people just like you did), he got a much nicer reception than you ever did. There was the odd person that would thank you, but most of the time you were treated to customers like the one you were serving then, who thought they were better than you simply because you were the one giving them the goods they purchased.

His order was simple at least, just a boring black coffee that suited the boring grey suit he was wearing perfectly. As you went to hand it over to him though, he’d been too busy looking down at his phone so rather than grabbing the cup he just knocked it over, spilling hot coffee all over your hand.

It wasn’t hot enough to cause some third degree burns, but it was hot enough to have you cursing and quickly pulling your hand away, dropping the cup completely which caused splashes to fall on the man's pants. 

Tears had pricked the corner of your eyes as you held your hand which was quickly turning an unhealthy shade of red, almost as red as Hawks’ feathers. Speaking of your feathered friend, he’d reacted immediately despite being in a conversation with Becky. Though you hadn’t been aware of it, his eyes had been following you the entire time you helped the grumpy customer whilst whispering to Becky, trying to get her to spill whatever secrets she had about you so he could get to know you even better.

In a matter of minutes Hawks was holding your wrist again, being sure not to touch the burns as he analysed the wound to see how bad they were. You noticed his shoulders seemed to relax when he diagnosed that the burns weren’t too bad, they’d just blister and hurt for a while.

“What the fuck!” The unhappy customer yelled out, doing his best impression of a child as he stamped his foot in the ground. “Look what you’ve done to my suit! I have a meeting in a hour! Are you really that fucking useless of your job you can’t even hold things?!” 

You blinked over at him, struggling to think of what to say next as you were still in shock over the pain in your hand. 

Hawks moved to stand in front of you, putting himself between you and the raging customer. He bent his head lower, his free hand moving to cup your chin so he could pull your gaze up to meet his in the middle. “You okay?” He whispered, keeping the conversation private, just between the two of you. Everybody in the cafe was currently staring at you but with how Hawks was holding you, and with the gentleness carved into his gaze, it felt more intimate than it really was.

“Yeah,” you mumbled, “not the first time I’ve been burned, probably won’t be the last.” You aimed for a joke to lighten the mood but Hawks’ expression didn’t change, he was solely focused on making sure you were okay. 

“Becky,” he suddenly called out, and for a second you wondered if he’d forgotten your name.

“Yes Hawks,” Becky squeaked, not having expected the number one hero in her heart to suddenly ask for her.

“You got a first aid kit around here?” He asked her, though his eyes still remained solely focused on you.

“Yep, I’ll go get it,” she rushed off then into the back office, quickly coming back and presenting it to Hawks like she’d found buried treasure. 

He nodded his thanks and finally looked away, “you okay putting our little bird back together?”

She giggled again and began to nod. You wished your friend got that elated whenever you told her to do something, most of the time she responded with sighs.

“Perfect.” Very gently, he pressed a kiss to your reddened hand, just on the edge of where there was a burn. “That kiss should help heal you right up,” he joked, sending you a wink that had you rolling your eyes. It also had your heart skipping multiple beats, almost putting you in cardiac arrest, but you did your best not to show that.

Then he turned around and walked over to the customer, and you got to see Hawks’ charm at work. He pulled the grumpy customer close and apologised for causing the distraction, putting all the blame on himself, he then offered to pay for not only that customer's replacement coffee and laundry, but then he bought everyone else in the room a drink. 

It meant you and Becky had to get back to work pretty quickly, but she did most of the coffee making and you grabbed whatever snacks people wanted which only required one hand at least. By the time you were done, Hawks was gone again, his lunch break over and done with.

You didn’t notice he’d left you a note on a napkin until you’d gone to clean up where he’d been sitting, almost missing the neatly folded napkin that had ‘Little Bird’ scrawled across the front of it.

Little Bird. 

Take it easy on your hand, you know if I ask Becky will tell me if you haven’t been. 

Below is my phone number, I’m trusting that you won’t give it out. That includes Becky, but don’t tell her I told you that, if I’m being honest she scares me a little.

Send me a text and let me know when you’re free, lets hang out neighbour 

xxx-xxx-xxxx

Beneath there was a drawing at the bottom that you really struggled to figure out. It was some sort of hieroglyphic. One looked to be exploding at the top while the other was… melting?

♥♥♥

You were laid on your couch with one bandaged hand over your head. It had been a long day, even before Hawks had shown up at your job.

When you’d gotten home, you hadn’t even been able to make it to your bed. At least tonight no one had been outside your door crying, too drunk to stand. Though, you were a little bit disappointed not to see Hawks.

You couldn’t bring yourself to text him. You’d gone to the effort of adding his number to your phone but then you’d lost all of your confidence when it came to you instigating the conversation with him. It was annoying, but you couldn’t help this nagging feeling that you shouldn’t get attached to him. He was way out of your league and the only thing bringing you together was that he was your neighbour. The differences between you and Hawks had blinded you the second you stepped into his penthouse apartment.

But you liked the attention he gave you, and the way he looked at you, and the things he said to you, and the way he stood a little too close but not close enough at the same time. 

You were falling for him, that was also becoming pretty evident to you. But you’d be damned if you didn’t go down without a fight. 

“Neighbour!” The man that harassed your inner thoughts suddenly yelled out from outside your door. “I can’t knock on the door, I hope you’re in there and can hear me, please let me in!”

“What the fuck, Hawks?” You questioned, rushing to get up off your couch considering how loud he’d just yelled and how panicked he sounded.

“Oh thank god you’re here, please hurry!” You did as he demanded and opened the door before he could finish the sentence, finding him leaning against your door frame, completely fine with his phone in his hand. “Damn, that was quick, you must really care about me, little bird.”

He’d changed out of his hero outfit which was all you’d ever seen him in, now he was just in a casual black t-shirt with grey joggers on and it took every power of womanly willpower you had to not immediately let your eyes drift to the crotch. You can do this, you told yourself, reminding yourself that there were bigger issues at hand, like the fact that your neighbour had given you a damn heart attack.

“What the hell do you think you’re doing Hawks?” You hissed at him, thinking about maybe hitting him but deciding he wasn’t worth hurting your already injured hand (plus, you weren’t really the violent type anyway).

“Forcing you to spend time with me seen as you’re playing hard to get,” he responded easily as he pushed his way past you (you didn’t put up that much of a fight, to be fair). “What do you want from the takeaway?”

You watched him walk further into your apartment before he draped himself down onto your couch, pushing his wings so they hung off the back. “Excuse me?”

“I can eat pretty much anything,” he said in a way of explanation.

“I can’t afford takeaway,” you responded dully, not really knowing what else to say. He’d said you were playing hard to get, so he obviously saw that you didn’t want to push him to hang out with you, but he was still there, sitting on your couch, making it look better than it had in a while.

“My treat,” he responded, “I owe you anyway after causing you problems at work, which I’m really sorry about, that hadn’t been my intention, I just wanted to see you.”

You rounded to the other side of the couch, perching yourself at the edge, as far away from Hawks as you could possibly get. “It’s okay, it’s not even your fault, that guy was being careless.”

“That guy was being a dickhead,” he snorted.

You looked over at him with wide eyes, shocked that those words had even left his mouth. “As a hero, aren’t you meant to be all nice and understanding?”

He smiled at your words with the kind of look that read ‘wow, you’re adorable’ as he started shaking his head, refuting what you’d said. “I’ll have you know, I was very nice; I nicely removed him out of the situation whilst understanding he was being a dickhead.”

“Touché,” you responded with a light chuckle, enjoying this side of Hawks. That good feeling was quickly followed by a bad feeling as you reminded yourself once more that you shouldn’t get attached to him. He either felt bad for you or was intrigued by you, he’d eventually grow bored either way and move on so there was no reason to get attached. You realised it might just be the best to cut ties there and then before you got too attached to the winged hero. “Why are you here, Hawks?”

“Already told you, if you don’t want to text me and sort out hanging out, then I’ll come to you and force you to accept my company,” he said, putting his phone down momentarily so he could look you in the eyes as he spoke to you. He’d heard the drop in your voice when you’d spoken and could tell something was up. 

You shook your head at him, moving to stare in front of you so that you didn’t have to look him in the eyes anymore. “That’s not what I meant, why are you forcing your company on me when I’m clearly not meeting you in the middle? Why are you even bothering with someone like me?”

“Someone like you? What does that mean?”

“I-” He was really going to make you point out the obvious? “We may live in the same building, but I can barely afford my rent, this was just the closest place I could get to my job.”

“I don’t care about your money,” he said, gaze sharpening on you.

“It’s not just that, you go out there and you save people every day, I make coffee and then collapse on my couch at the end of every night, that’s as exciting as my life gets.” You threw your hands up in the air, in a ‘this is me’ sort of gesture. Because it was you. Basic, simple, boring, you.

“Yeah, you also take care of your annoying neighbours who drink far too much and get stuck in front of your door,” he quarrelled, not backing down as easily as you wanted him to. In fact, he seemed to be getting quite annoyed with you, as though he didn’t like the way the way you were talking about yourself. 

“I only did that cause you were in front of my door,” you easily bounced back.

He shook his head, not believing you for a single second, which was fair, you hadn’t believed yourself when you said it either. “If that were the case then you wouldn’t have carried me all the way upstairs, got me into bed and made sure I was comfy, and made sure I had water and pain killers for the morning after.” He shuffled further onto the couch, and seemed to reach out to you before second-guessing himself and pulling his arm back. “Stop selling yourself short little bird, you’re a good person, you’re sweet, and I like that about you, enough to want to get to know you in every possible way.”

You stared at him, taking in his words and the tone he used, trying to gauge if he really meant it. Maybe he did. Maybe your charming, attractive, neighbour really did feel interested towards you. And maybe that was just about the craziest thing you’ve heard in a long time. “I’m not all that fun after a day shift, I’m probably going to go to bed soon.”

It was your last defence, but it barely had any foundation, the way you’d said the words had been so weak, almost as though your heart and body were fighting two different battles. Your mind is trying to convince you that spending any more time with your neighbour would just lead you to an unnecessary heartache, while your heart told you to take that leap of faith, to let him in.

“Have you eaten tea yet?” He asked, eyeing you up. The war was still going on, so you couldn’t decide on what the best thing would be to say. No you didn’t, but if you told him you had then he’d leave. Nothing came out of your mouth. “Did you even have lunch?” He continued, and still, you said nothing, cementing the decision in Hawks mind. He picked his phone back up, unlocking it and getting to work. “Right, well if you don’t tell me what you want I’m just gonna order every different kind of food I can find.”

You quickly reached out, not wanting him to waste all of his money and truly believing that the mad man would be willing to do something like that. “I like pizza,” you offered, your heart doing a little happy dance in your chest as you finally took that leap and opened yourself to whatever kind of relationship Hawks wanted to pursue with you.

“Me too,” he was grinning back at you, that look of happiness on his face more of a reward than the pizza would be. 

As he ordered the pizza, the two of you also worked on deciding what TV show to watch. He understood that you were tired and wouldn’t be up for much conversation, in fact he continued to reassure you that he was just happy to be there with you.

Eventually you decided on a comedy TV show that you’d both been wanting to watch, it was a big commitment, ten whole seasons. But still, you’d started it with Hawks, knowing full well that you wouldn’t be able to watch any more episodes without him.

As the night started out, you ate your pizza on different ends of the couch. Then, after eating, Hawks took your plates into the kitchen and when he returned he sat a bit closer. 

Two episodes later, he let out a yawn and laid his head on your lap.

“Comfy?” You’d joked, swallowing down your nerves at how close he now was to a certain body part which had been tingling ever since his arrival.

“Enough to fall asleep,” he mumbled as he grabbed a hold of your hand, moving it over to his hair. It was obvious what he wanted to do, and you couldn’t help yourself, the hair beneath your fingers was surprisingly soft. It was clearly windswept from all the flying he did, but he managed to keep it as fluffy as the clouds he flew through.

Hawks had trapped you with this. You grew too comfortable and then you fell asleep. Right there on the couch with your hand in his hair and his head on your lap. 

He’d looked up after you stopped petting him, ready to make some sort of banter, but when he saw you asleep he just smiled gently. He grabbed a hold of the remote to turn the TV off, then as gently as he possibly could, he lifted you up and carried you to bed. He accidentally walked into your bathroom at first, but he found your bedroom on his second go.

He laid you tenderly on to your bed, allowing his hand to sweep across the curve of your body as he dropped you down onto your pillows. You’d already been in your pj’s so he didn’t have as much a hard time as you did when you’d taken him to bed.

Your bed may not have been as large as his, but Hawks still had a hard time resisting getting into bed and cuddling up with you. 

He won (or lost, depending on your point of view) in the end and left you be. When you woke up a few hours later, it took you walking out to the kitchen before you realised that you must have fallen asleep on your neighbour. You were only reminded of your night together when you saw the small pile of dishes that Hawks had washed up and set to dry.

♥♥♥

“This doesn’t count,” Hawks said as he walked up towards you at the counter where you worked.

“What?” You asked, confused at his sudden appearance and the words he’d thrown at you. What happened to ‘hello’?

“I just need to ask you something really quickly,” he explained, though it didn’t really answer any of your questions. “I’ve been invited to a birthday party tonight, will you come with me?”

“Whose birthday?”

“You don’t know him, just a friend.” He waved his hand in the air. It was clear he was in a rush, his hands were tapping on the counter and his eyes kept looking back at the doorway. “Come on,” he whined, “you don’t want to make me go all alone do you, that wouldn’t be very neighbourly of you.”

You’d hung out twice since he first ambushed you in your own home and force fed you pizza, mostly you were just chilling out and watching your TV show but you’d be lying if you said you weren’t already very attached to Hawks. He knew exactly what to say to make you laugh, and even when he was being annoying, he was looking out for your best interest. He made sure you ate and drank plenty of water, and he had no issue with you passing out in the middle of a TV show, he just carried you to bed and then cleaned up any mess you guys had made.

And he’d never complained about being the one to clean up either. You guess you owed him for that.

“Fine, but you at least need to tell me the dress code,” you bargained before he could rush off and leave you panicking for the rest of the night.

“Fancy schmancy,” he responded.

“I’m a barista, I don’t own ‘fancy schmancy’,” you deadpanned back to him. 

“I can sort that out, maybe you can borrow one of my suits,” he replied, leaning down on the counter, head in hand as he looked at you with a dopey smile on his face. He’d started relaxing, despite the rush he’d felt earlier, it was just his body's natural response to you. When you didn’t respond back with a smile he just chuckled lowly. “Don’t worry about it, I’ll get you an outfit sorted.”

“Why does that feel like it could end worse than if I just turned up in a potato sack?” You said, a sudden feeling of foreboding swooping over you.

He reached out, booping your nose, “because you worry too much.”

Mocking him, you reached out and booped his nose back, though he scrunched his face up and looked so adorable you lost your breath for your second. “You don’t worry enough.”

“I’ve just learned the right things to worry about,” he shrugged, straightening back up, obviously getting ready to leave. “You’re the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen, it doesn't matter what you wear. But seriously, let me take care of your outfit, it’s the least I could do after throwing this on you out of nowhere, and I promise to not put you in something gross.”

“Or something tiny,” you quickly inputted. What else could you say? He’d just said you were the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen. You wanted to call him certifiably insane.

He put his hand on his chest, as though he was making a solemn promise. “I will try my best.”

You took a second to actually agree with him. You hated that he’d bought every meal so far and that he was offering to even buy you outfits, sure, he had money but you had pride too. You think he knew how uncomfortable you were with it, because he always tried to change things around so it seemed like he was paying you back, rather than just giving you something for free.

“Fine,” you mumbled.

Whatever guilt you felt over accepting his charity quickly disappeared when he leaned forward and pressed his lips to your check. “‘Atta girl,” he whispered in your ear before jumping away from the counter and speed walking to the door. “See you tonight!”

♥♥♥

Hawks was going to be at yours soon, you knew that, you were very aware, but you were sitting on the edge of your bed staring at the dress you’d found on your doorstep. You’d finished readying your hair and was about to get the dress put on when you opened up the lid of the box and saw the gown contained in it.

It was beautiful, the exact same colour as Hawks’ wings. You knew that was probably purposeful but you didn’t care, it just made you that much giddier.

“Y/N?” Your charitable neighbour was right on time in fact, one glance at the clock on your wall told you he was actually ten minutes early. What you didn’t know was that he’d been ready an hour ago and spent his time pacing upstairs, resisting the urge to just go hang out with you earlier than planned. He didn’t want to seem too eager, and he figured being ten minutes earlier showed he was just good at being punctual rather than just being desperate to see you.

“Two seconds, I need to finish getting the dress on.” You called out, shaking your head and deciding to just get in it. Sure, you felt like your skin was tainting it despite having showered thoroughly beforehand. Even the material was softer than anything you’d ever felt before. You were far too poor to be wearing a dress like that.

“Do you like it?” He asked, remaining outside the door.

“It’s gorgeous,” you replied, doing little hops around your bedroom as you pulled it up. Once the shoulder straps were in place, you let your hands trail down the poofy skirt, noticing the embroidered feather pattern that had been sewn in. Another beautiful reminder of the beautiful man who had gotten you this dress. “Don’t know about the colour though.”

“Really? The colour is my favourite part.” Hawks responded.

“I could have guessed that,” you chuckled. Taking one last look in the mirror you decided you’d do. You weren’t a model, you’d never be stunning. Despite what Hawks had said earlier when he’d asked you to go to the party, you weren’t the most beautiful girl in the world, you weren’t even second, or hundredth. But that was okay, because your dress was the most beautiful dress in the world.

You opened up the front door for Hawks, spinning around and pointing at your back. “Zip me up?”

“Whoa, whoa,” he chanted, hands moving to grip your waist so he could turn your back to face him, smiling at your confused expression. “You can’t just reveal all this goodness and not give me a chance to stare.” After his eyes roamed over the front of you, he pushed at your hips again, making you spin around. A giggle escaped you despite your best efforts to try to stay calm and cool. “I was wrong earlier,” he continued, “you’re something more than beautiful, I don’t think a word exists for you yet.”

“You’re ridiculous,” you responded, shaking your head at him. Even if you wanted to deny him, his words still tore through your skin and nestled into your heart. You knew they’d stay there through the next few weeks or so, thriving. 

“You’re still cute,” he retorted with a cut wrinkle of his nose.

“Thought I was ‘more than beautiful’,” you argued, finding it easier to joke than take the conversation as seriously as Hawks seemed to be.

“You’re both,” he shrugged with ease, squeezing your hips in a way that you guessed was meant to be reassuring. 

“Noted,” you said, because that’s all you really could say. Until you looked at him, truly taking in the all black suit he wore. It was clearly tailor made, hugging his body in all the right places. “You look really handsome.”

“Thanks.” He grinned down at you. “See, that’s how you take a compliment.”

You just rolled your eyes at him before turning away. “Thank you for the lesson, now, my zip?”

“Of course.” He stepped close, maybe a little too close considering all he needed to do was zip up the back of your dress. But you weren't about to push him away, not when the heat of his body was warming up yours so deliciously, making you feel so safe. His head, which was bent downward so he could look down at the zip, bumped against yours. “You smell good too.” Shamelessly, Hawks let his nose drift down to your neck. 

You were starting to think he had some sort of obsession with that spot on your body, it was where he’d first touched you at the start of your friendship, and he always seemed to go back there like a moth to a flame.

“Hawks…” You weren’t sure if you were about to ask him something or maybe beg him, the words got lost as his hands gripped tighter at your waist the moment you whispered his name in that husky tone. 

He hummed as he let his nose stroke the curve of your neck one more time before pulling away, “we better get to the car before I drag you up to my place and lock you inside my bedroom.”

“Yeah, of course.” The words came out as a squeak, unable to read from Hawks’ expression if he was joking or not because he moved too quickly, pulling you out of your apartment and taking you down the stairs, not letting you see his face at all.

“We can do that later,” he continued on, sounding quite cheerful over the prospect. 

You didn’t respond. You would have agreed quite eagerly, but you still weren’t sure if he was joking or not, and your pride wouldn’t let you come across as too eager. 

When you got downstairs, he moved over to a large fancy black car and opened up the door for you. Once you slipped inside, he moved in close to you, doing his best to not let his wings get in the way. You could understand why he normally chose to fly over getting stuffed in a car.

As the car set off, things started to become a bit more real for you. You were on your way to the kind of effort where you needed to dress as nicely as you and Hawks were. You were used to just going to bars whenever it was one of your friends birthdays, nothing like this.

“You don’t need to be nervous,” he said, noticing how rigid you became as soon as the car started moving.

“Yes I do.” You chose to be honest, trusting Hawks enough with that. “This is all normal for you so you don’t get it.”

Proving why he was chosen to be number two hero, he paused to take in your words, nodding as they sunk in. “You’re not wrong, maybe I am numb to it, but I’m still here for you and I’m still going to do everything I can to make sure you have a good night.” He reached out, taking your hand into his and you found yourself grateful for the contact. 

“I appreciate that, Hawks.” What did you do so right? To have a man like Hawks, a number two hero full of charm and good looks and the kindest of hearts, want to be around you, supporting you, letting you thrive? In your past life you must have been a saint.

“What do you give a sick bird?”

“Excuse me?” You questioned, unsure where the words came from and what they had to do with what you’d just been talking about.

“A tweet-ment.” Hawks laughed harder than you did at his own joke, though a few chuckles did escape you, mostly at the ridiculousness of him throwing out a bird joke.

“That was awful,” you cringed, nose wrinkling in a way that immediately had Hawks leaning over and booping you. That seemed to be another one of Hawks’ favourite things to do.

No matter how much you protested, he continued to tell you more bird jokes. You wanted to say you were surprised by how many jokes he made, but you weren’t all that surprised. This was Hawks. Of course there was a special part of his brain saved exclusively for bird jokes.

You were laughing so hard you barely noticed when you reached the house where the party was held- wait, no, it wasn’t a house at all. Your eyes bulged as you took in the mansion you’d parked in front of. Outside there were multiple banners which all had an image of the one hero you’d always be a minute to recognise.

Your hand that was cradling Hawks turned into a vice-like grip. “Hold on a minute, this is Best Jeanist’s birthday party?”

“Oh great, you do know him,” Hawks said, as though it were just some lucky coincidence.

You glowered over at him. “You know I know him, we spoke about him the first time we met.”

A single look of ‘oops, I got caught’ flashed across his face before he covered it in a cheesy smile. “Aw, you remembered,” he feigned adoration as he pressed his free hand against his heart.

“Hawks.” It was a single word, just his name, but you’d pushed enough seriousness into it that it broke through his charade. 

“I knew if I told you, you’d freak out and talk yourself out of coming,” he admitted, giving your hand a squeeze, though it was more to comfort himself. He then gave you another determined love, recovering from the moment of insecurity quickly and easily, a trait of his you wished you could share in. “It’s not a big deal, everyone here are friends, not heroes.”

“But they are heroes, Hawks, big time heroes, I’m a nobody.” 

You knew you’d made a mistake when you finished your sentence and Hawks was glaring straight at you. He shuffled closer until he was crowding into your space. It wasn’t yours anymore, it was his. 

“You’re my girl,” he asserted, hand tipping up your jaw so you could look into his eyes and see just how much he meant that. The look of seriousness softened as he continued, “please, just give it an hour and if you hate it then I promise we’ll leave.”

Who were you to argue with that? The number two hero had claimed you, and promised you safety. That claiming was all you could really think about so you let him drag you out of the car and into the building, his arm soon wrapping around your waist as you walked together.

“Jeanist!” Your neighbour called out, making you jump a little as he pulled you from your stupor, changing the directory that you were walking in. The only reason you didn’t fall over was because of Hawks grip around you.

“Hello, Hawks,” the famous fashion-designer-slash-superhero greeted, his eyes soon moving over to you, “ah, you must be the girl who’s got our number two hero acting like a love drunk puppy.”

“That’s her,” Hawks admitted unabashedly.

“Uh, hi, happy birthday.” You were nervous and despite your best attempts, the shakiness showed in your voice. Jeanist was stylish and intense, even when he was in a relaxed setting he seemed to uphold that.

“Thank you, do you like the dress?” He asked, waving his hand graciously, “It’s not my best work but Hawks limited me on what I could do, still, you make it look lovely.”

“Y-your dress? You made this dress.” You blinked up at him. Head empty, just thoughts about the fact that you were in a custom Best Jeanist dress. “You made this dress.” You couldn’t stop repeating it, you looked over to Hawks and said it one more time, just for good measure. “Best Jeanist made this dress.”

You realised you were starting to act like Becky had and tried to pull your fragmented mind back together but ohmygodyouwerewearingafreakingbestjeanistdress.

“He did, but you look so good in that dress, you make it your own,” Best Jeanist replied, unbothered by your fangirl antics, he was profusely used to it by that point in his career.

“He’s not wrong,” Hawks agreed, squeezing you slightly, a proud look on his face.

“Thank you,” you responded, “thank you so much.”

“You’re welcome,” he nodded coolly, “if you don’t mind I need to finish making the rounds.”

“No worries, have a nice night,” Hawks said and you were glad he was able to speak civilly to the hero, you were still too awestruck to carry a normal conversation.

“You too, don’t try to have another drinking competition with Endeavour, please.” Those were Best Jeanist’s last words to Hawks as he strolled away to a group that was standing in the corner. You recognised one of them as Mt. Lady, a hero who had caught everyone's eyes (she was too big to miss sometimes) because of the way she dominated a battlefield and how good she looked as she did it.

You looked over at HAwks, wondering if he’d become entranced by any of the other beautiful heroes that surrounded you but he was still just looking at you, a content smile on his lips, the exact same smile he’d wear when he rested with his head on your lap.

That smile meant a lot to you. You didn’t realise until that moment, but the fact that he gifted you that smile was continuous proof that he not only wanted to be around you, but he enjoyed it.

Together with Hawks you make your own way around the gala, saying hello to everyone whilst you did your best not to get star struck.

Eventually you did bump into Endeavour and it took everything in you not to ask the man for an autograph. He was curt and polite, keeping the conversation short. Once he left, you revealed to Hawks that Endeavour was always your favourite as a kid. What you weren’t expecting was how excited that made Hawks become as he revealed Endeavour was also his favourite, this led to the two of you finding a spot in the hall and swapping stories of your favourite Endeavour rescues or fights.

“He’s so cool,” Hawks said with a dreamy sigh.

“Yeah,” you agreed, leaning back in your chair, “but, I don’t know, another hero has caught my eye lately, I might have a new favourite.”

He kisses your hand, but it’s obvious from the heated look that he wants to do more. You wanted him to do more. You weren’t sure when that move from neighbours to more had occurred, but you weren’t hating it either.

You liked the way Hawks made you feel, and you liked him. Not just his looks, but his personality, his charm, his cuddliness and even his bird jokes. 

“Want to dance?” He eventually asked.

“Sure.” You both left your drinks on the table, taking to the dance floor where an upbeat, but slow, melody was being played by a band. Falling into Hawks’ arms, letting him wrap his arms around you, was easy. He’d spent so much time with you, touching your body in little ways, that being this close didn’t feel intimidating at all, it was natural.

Together, you swayed, your chin resting on his shoulder while he leaned his head back against yours.

Pushing a bit closer, he nuzzled your neck before whispering in your ear. “So, we’re up to date five now, how would you say I am doing?”

“Date five?” You queried, eyebrows coming together as a look of confusion passed your expression. Was this a date? When did date one, two, three and four, happen?

“Yeah,” He leaned back, removing one hand from around your waist so he could hold it up and begin counting on his fingers, “breakfast after we met, lunch date at the cafe, takeaway and TV shows yesterday and two nights ago, think that's five.”

“Those were dates?”

He gave a firm nod. “You said I needed to take you out ten times if I hoped to have a chance with you.”

It took you a moment to recognise what he was talking about. Then it clicked, that was what you’d said to him in a moment of angry passion after you’d stopped him from trying to kiss you whilst being far too inebriated. It had been a joke though, just a throw away statement to get him to stop pestering you. Yet, in the end, it had only gotten him to pester you more, not that you weren’t grateful for that. 

“You remembered that?” You asked, feeling a lot of emotions. Shock, awe, adoration.

“Can’t forget it, you were being all bossy and cute,” he chuckled lowly. Hiding behind all that jokiness was nerves though, you saw it in the way his eyes seemed to roam over your expression, trying to read your emotions. You felt it in the fingers that were digging into your hips, stopping you from making a run from it, not that you wanted to.

“And you… you’d be willing to do five more? You’d want to hang out that much, knowing there’s no reward for you?” It seemed like such a silly question, but you felt the need to ask it anyway. All this time you’d been nervous, thinking that he was wasting both of your time, that he didn’t want anything to do with you later, but how could you say that when he was putting so much effort into getting to know you? So much effort into getting to be with you?

“I’m very much hoping for a reward, but yeah, I would, I do actually like hanging out with you.”

That was it, there was no stopping you as you pulled him down to you and slammed your lips against his. There was so much neediness coming from you as your hands dug into his hair, normally your pride would have stopped you from doing this but you couldn’t help yourself. This man wanted to know you, he wanted to hang out with you, he wanted to be with you.

Even if it was just for ten stupid dates, it was the most effort anyone has put into getting to know you, and you were honoured to even be in this angel’s presence. 

Once you pulled away, you were gasping for air. Hawks was exactly the same, which made that fire in you become even more consuming. You wanted him. No, you needed him.

“I don’t think I can make it to our tenth date, Hawks.”

He leaned forward, nipping at your lip. “Is that so?” For the first time since you entered the party, he wasn’t smiling at you, he was entranced by your mouth.

“Please.” That was the magic word, as Hawks moved his hands from your waist, taking your hands and beginning to guide you out of the building.

Once outside, he surrounded you. “Do you trust me?” Without hesitation you nodded, he smiled at that, letting his fingers trace your jawline. He was touching you so much now. You imagined this was what he’d really been wanting to do every time you hung out. “Need your words, pretty girl.”

“Yes, I trust you,” you confirmed, feeling breathless.

But you didn’t really know the meaning of breathless until he began to fly up into the sky with you in his arms, you wrapped your limbs tightly around him, feeling the wind push against your hair.

This was what Hawks got to feel every day, and he was sharing that part of it with you. You let out a little scream, but it was obviously filled with more joy than terror. Though you couldn’t hear him because of the wind whipping past your ears, you felt the rumble of a chuckle in his chest which he’d pinned you tightly against.

You made it to Hawks' apartment building in record time, almost as though flying was quicker than dealing with the city traffic. He didn’t drop you from his arms, still holding you tightly, unwilling to let you leave his side. You landed on his patio and he led the both of you into his large kitchen/living room before guiding you into his bedroom, where it all started between the two of you.

Much like the first time you’d been in there, his lips fell down to your neck, teeth immediately grazing your skin. “Want to mark you up, make you mine,” he mumbled, voice trembling with the same lust that vibrated through your body and on your skin.

“Do it,” you responded with zero hesitation, this was the first time you’d been sure of him and what you both wanted. “Need you, Hawks.”

“Keigo,” he mumbled, and at first it sounded like a bunch of noise.

“Huh?” You pulled on his hair, pulling him away from your neck and earning a whine from the eager biter.

“Keigo,” he repeated, “it’s my real name, if you’re going to moan anything, let it be that.”

“Keigo,” you repeated, liking the way it felt in your mouth. You knew there would be other parts of Keigo that felt just as nice in your mouth as well. But you would get to that, tonight you were desperate for all of him and you’d feast on him soon, but you wanted to feel him inside you. Needed it. Needed that connection with him. “Screw five more dates, fuck me, Keigo.” You weren’t used to being so bold but you managed to get the words out, even whilst a blush covered your cheeks.

He didn’t respond at first, laying you down with a gentleness he was not offering to your neck. He continued working his way around your neck, then down to your breast. Sucking, biting, licking. He was giving you every glorious sensation that he could with his mouth and it had your hips rising into the air, desperate to feel the same friction he’d started treating your breast with. 

You aimed your hips up, managing to rub against his crotch, feeling his hardness pressed up against his pants. You moaned unabashedly. “Please, need you.”

He growled, pushing your dress down so he could bite down on one of your nipples, earning another noise of pleasure from you. He continued nibbling as he pushed his hard dick against your crotch, your clothes messily piled up in your centre. If you weren’t so desperate, you would have taken the time to take them off but there simply wasn’t any time for that.

Then, Keigo pulled away entirely. You reached out, managing only to grab onto his biceps. 

“I’m not fucking you tonight,” he explained, “I’m sticking to my word, I’ll prove to you I’m a gentlemen worthy of your cunt.”

“I don’t care about that anymore, please,” you whined out, beginning to claw at him, trying to pull him closer. You saw the smirk on his face, saw how much he was enjoying it, but you simply didn’t care. You were so desperate, already on the edge, already soaked, just from the way he’d claimed you as his with those love bites.

He leaned forward, pressing the gentlest of kisses to your lips. “It’ll be okay baby, you never said anything about kisses, so I just need to kiss you in the right place.”

His words didn’t click in your head until he began to lower himself down your body. Down where no man had gone before. “Hawks, wait-”

He snapped back up so his face was in front of yours, hand cupping your jaw as a growl slipped past his teeth, “Keigo.” He reminded you of his name and then kissed you hard, imprinting the name in your mind in the same way he kissed you so hard, you’d always feel the phantom pain of him against you. 

When he pulled away, he took all of your thoughts with him. You let him take his pants off, earning a ‘good girl’ when you didn’t put up any more fight. You watched him go down, bunching up your dress so he could take in all of your perfection. 

Tonight was not the night for gentleness, it was all about feeding a hunger that had been growing over the past five dates.

His tongue immediately lashed at your clit, his mouth following and sucking you up. Your hips rocked up automatically, the new sensation almost bringing you to orgasm. He placed one arm across your waist, holding you down onto the bed so you couldn’t get away from him, so he could properly feast on you.

“Keigo!” His tongue trailed up and down from your hole to your clit then back down, stretching inside of you, filling you up. 

“You taste so good baby,” he whined out, mouth never leaving you.

He was going all in, holding nothing back, eating out your cunt and tasting your sweet nectar like it was his next meal. 

You weren’t afforded any time to be shy about how animalistic he was being, you were just a meal after all, all you needed to do was lay there and look pretty and take the lashings from his tongue.

It was a punishment and the greatest gift you’ve ever been given. 

You rolled off the edge as dramatically as an avalanche fell from a mountain, your whole body quaking as fireworks went off inside of you, all centering at your core where he didn’t bother slowing. He rode you just as hard as you did your orgasm, his tongue never ceasing its movements. You weren’t sure when his fingers joined but they were piercing in and out of you at a speed that only the fastest superhero alive could manage to give you.

You wished you could see his face, see the way your mess covered his face, but that was the price you paid for not taking the time out to remove your dress. Next time, you told yourself.

And there would be a next time.

Soon enough the fireworks were becoming too much and you couldn’t help the full body twitches. “Keigo, please, too much.”

You managed to move up to your elbows so you could see a bit more of him, you couldn’t see his face still, but you could see his hips and how they were rutting into the bed, trying to get as much friction as they could. 

He needed to cum, and who were you to take that away from him?

You decided you wanted to be the girl who gave it to him instead.

Reaching out you tugged at his hair, earning another groan before he nuzzled deeper into your cunt, causing you to let out a groan of your own.

“Keigo, please, I want kisses,” you tried to keep your tone sweet, but it was hard with how torn your throat had become from all the whining you’d done previously.

Still, your words had their desired effect and he finally released your oversensitive clit from his lips. Wasting no time, he raised up and crawled over you, pinning you back down on the bed and pressing his lips on yours.

You tasted yourself on him and you didn’t care, it just made you wetter, knowing that it was your taste on his tongue. Knowing it was your nectar he’d gotten drunk on.

Moving your hips slowly so you didn’t surprise him, you raised them up and stroked yourself against the crotch of his pants. He was even harder than before, which you thought was impossible. Beneath his clothes, his cock was stuck against his right leg, and when you rubbed against it, on instinct he met your thrusts.

You moved your head to the side, letting your lips trail up his jaw as you rubbed against him again, purposefully going slow, teasing him, unravelling his mind the same way he had done yours.

“Use me, Keigo.”

The whine that followed your words was absolutely pathetic, but he did as you asked, beginning to thrust harder, rubbing against your leg, using you to get the release he so desperately needed.

His head fell back into the crook of your neck, his favourite place. “Fuck,” he whimpered, moving faster and faster, unable to get enough. He never would, not until he felt your cunt wrapped around his cock.

“That’s it, good boy,” you praised, feeling him begin to press harder. “Cum for me.”

He seemed to get what you were doing and he quickly tried to take charge, his hand taking its place around your neck, the perfect collar. “That’s what you want, isn’t it, little bird?”

“You want my cum so badly don’t you? Want me to paint your insides?” Every word was interrupted by a harsh breath as he worked himself against you, his eyes rolling to the back of his head despite how hard he was trying to stay in control.

“Yeah, yes, I want it Keigo, please.” You weren’t even sure what you were saying, you just knew you needed him to cum and would say whatever you had to, to get him there.

He couldn’t last much longer, your heat against him tugging him over that edge. His hips continued to rut against you as he came again and again, filthying his pants for you.

All for you.

The two of you laid in the glow of what you’d just done for several moments. You were filthy, sweaty, out of breath, but vibrant with orgasmic bliss. 

His full weight was on top of you and it still wasn’t enough, you wrapped your arms around him, pulling him closer and he began to leave sweet kisses on the bruises he’d covered you in. Once he’d given tender love to each individual one, he finally rose up. 

When he stood, you took in just how much of a perfect mess you’d made him into. His suit was crumpled and there was an obvious stain on his pants. His hair looked as messy as it usually did though.

He moved over to the drawers across from his bed, wordlessly opening it and beginning to dig through what was inside.

You began to realise it was over, and you had no idea what to do with yourself. Did you just go downstairs to your room? Was that it, just wait until the next date. Awkwardness began to mix in with your sweat, the smile on your face melting into a frown as you tried to figure out what was the best next set of actions.

Suddenly, your vision was covered by a fabric. Pulling it off your face, you realised it was one of Keigo’s shirts, and a pair of underwear followed, landing in your lap. 

“You can go use the en suite to get cleaned up, I’ll use the bathroom down the hall,” Keigo said, turning to face you with a change of clothes for himself in his hands. “Then, we cuddle.”

He said it so matter-of-factly, as though the decision was already made, and you had no issue with that.

. ⋅˚̣- : ✧ : – ⭒ ⊹ ⭒ – : ✧ : -˚̣⋅ ⋅˚̣- : ✧ : – ⭒ ⊹ ⭒ – : ✧ : -˚̣⋅ .

My first time writing for one of the gals! Inspired by my friend and her love of "Wamins!"

. ⋅˚̣- : ✧ : – ⭒ ⊹ ⭒ – : ✧ : -˚̣⋅ ⋅˚̣- : ✧ : – ⭒ ⊹ ⭒ – : ✧ : -˚̣⋅ .

Momo is such a doting partner lets begin with that however, she is also a romantic who has seen most romance through her rich and eccentric parents, or through cheesy romance movies and fanfiction

She would totally have a little tumblr anonymous blog all about her crush on you long before she felt confident it was more than just a fleeting sensation.

Would totally have little lyric snippets about her feelings for you as posts to go as her status for that morning or lunch or tea time or dinner etc “When I see your face there's not a thing that I would change~” “Oh I can’t believe its happening to me! Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this!” 

Several friends have caught on and know about it, some even send her little memes or romantic posts they think she’d like or relate to!

Or some memes to tease her for her crush as friends do

Expect her to blush and stammer and stutter around you, eyes lighting up if you ask to do something together

It can be work, fun, or just food she is as happy as the first time the others went to her house

This tall beautiful girl is so in love with you, she is total puppy eyes for anything you do

If you hug her she may short circuit for a moment out of complete joy and panic before hugging you back gently

She is not super strong like some other heroes but she does work out and she never wants to press even slightly too hard when she reaches for you

Queen of respecting your space, she strictly adheres to your boundaries and won’t even ask if they’ve changed when you both get closer. So if you start out not wanting skinship as that is something you reserve for people you’re really close with you will need to be the one to bring it up if you change your mind.

Seriously out of respect, she may not realize if you just try to hold her hand or hug her after you’ve gotten closer, she is daintily stepping out of reach thinking you had moved closer unintentionally and she doesn’t want to erode your trust in her even by accidentally breaking your space bubble

A Momo with a crush will slowly gain more confidence as she gets positive feedback from you. Of course, all of it anonymously goes on her blog, and she talks it out with her friends to make sure she isn’t missing anything and to plan her next steps

Bless their hearts, they help ground this romantic in reality a bit so she doesn’t end up confessing way too soon and way too publicly or dramatically to the point it might feel like a staged prank

Todoroki is sitting on her bed absolutely clueless as he listens to her babble excitedly to Tsu, Ochako, Jiro, and Hitoshi. Surprisingly other than his small mumbled words of surprise at relationship things in general makes good points for her and the others by just using logic and his level-headed reasoning. 

He is also your biggest supporter of you two getting together because he sees how happy you make her and that alone makes him smile and tell you you have his full support…to what you didn’t know and Momo was too embarrassed and stunned to explain when he just walked off afterward

She can make anything with her body so long as she knows the molecular compound, or buy anything for you with her money. But she is too romantic for that, she insists on learning how to handcraft something for you

Lots of little love notes end up in your mailbox, hand scrapbooked edges and lace envelopes without a name

She moves slowly and lets you realize on your own through the small touches here, words of affirmation, handwritten letters, and small handcrafted gifts (even with bandaged fingers from failing at first to craft them properly) that she likes you

If you ask she will blush and stammer but tell you if you want to know then why don’t you go to the park with her that weekend and she’d answer you then

Like I said she is a romantic, It is clearly a date and she dresses up so beautifully and sets up a wonderful picnic on the grass by the stream

When you get there she’d finally confess unable to look you in the eyes as she plays with her fingers but admits she has liked you for a long time and asks if it’d be okay for her to act on those feelings today

Your hands being held together not only gets sent to the group chat while you two sit together and talk but posted to her blog as she adds a little dreams come true quote to it

Congratulations you have just gotten the sweetest woman as a girlfriend, she is going to dote and spoil you rotten. Please take gentle care of her heart, it's so fragile hold it carefully in your trusted hands

Shinsou's Eyebags

So I've been browsing the MHA fandom and the consensus on Shinsou's eyebags is that they're there because he's a sleep-deprived insomniac.

HOWEVER! I propose an alternative theory that I haven't seen in the general fandom before:

His eye bags are genetic.

I have cousins who have eyebags no matter how much they sleep. They've had them since birth. Their eyebags become much more prominent when they're tired or stressed (ie: Shinsou during the sports festival) .

I don't have anything against the idea that his eyebags are because of insomnia, I feel it fits well in many MHA fanfictions and theories. But it'd be nice to see a new take on him, ya know?

SCENARIO REQUEST: ❝the secret is out.❞

[ Fandom: Boku no Hero Academia ] [ Characters: Todoroki Shouto ]

「Scenario of Todoroki and his S/O where they’re in a secret relationship and Class 1-A finds out they had sex.」 Warning: Mentions of sex

TODOROKI SHOUTO

Todoroki and you have been in a relationship since the end of your first year. You respected Todoroki's decision to keep the relationship a secret. It came to you as a surprise because you didn't think that he cared what other people thought about him. Todoroki told you about how your classmates might overreact and just be annoying. When you thought about it, you were dating one of the hottest guys in the school and no one knows about that. The two of you had already been good friends before you started dating so no one thought that it was weird that you and Todoroki were close with one another — which made things very easy for you two.

It wasn't as if you didn't trust one another, it's just that neither of you want to deal with the gossip that will come when you announce your relationship to the public. Not to mention, there's also his father whom he talked to you about once. The two of you never really go on dates that much due to the busy schedule of being a UA student. But the two of you always made it work out. Spending time together in each other’s dorm rooms, working on homework, or studying together. It wasn’t like dates were nonexistent, they were just rare.

”What do you plan on doing tomorrow, [First Name]-chan?" Tsuyu questioned you. 

The girls have currently gathered around in the common area, just relaxing and enjoying each other's company. You sat next to Jirou who was showing you a new song that you might enjoy. The topic has shifted to what everyone was going to do tomorrow since exams were over and you all have time to unwind and relax. Most of your friends seemed eager to go out and do a little shopping or sightseeing. On the other hand, you weren't sure what you wanted to do. Originally, you thought of inviting Todoroki out to do something together but you have yet to confirm with him if he had any plans or not.

"I'm not really sure. I do plan on going out or maybe do a little bit of cleaning....." you muttered absentmindedly. 

"Oh! What about going to the movies tomorrow with us?" Uraraka suddenly piped up with a smile.

"Yeah, yeah! We're gonna watch that one action movie that came out recently with Midoriya and Iida! I think Todoroki is coming as well but we left it up to the boys to invite him!" Ashido added with excitement. You hummed to yourself, unsure whether you wanted to tag along since your boyfriend hasn't confirmed whether he wants to go or not.

"Well, you could always tell us tomorrow morning! Because the movie is at 4 pm and we'll probably have lunch together before that." Uraraka said.

It was an hour later that the girls decided to return to their own rooms to sleep. On the other hand, you were sneaking out of your room with a small pillow in hand. You stopped in front of Todoroki's room and gently knocked on his door. Todoroki answers the door almost immediately, letting you into his dimly lit room. The two of you sleep together once in a while and you would sneak out of his room early in the morning. You could remember the very first time you slept together, Todoroki was stiff as a board next to you, trying to keep his hands away from inappropriate areas.

"Did I wake you up?" you asked as he sits down on the futon he laid out for the two of you.

"No, I was just getting ready for bed." he replied.

"So.....Ochako-chan and Mina-chan invited me to go to the movies. I heard that Midoriya and Iida are coming too, did they ask you?" you questioned, lying on the futon next to your boyfriend who was fixing his messy hair. Todoroki positioned himself on top of you, resting his head atop your chest comfortably.

"Do you want to go?" he asks you.

"Mhm.....depends.....do you want to do anything tomorrow? Just the two of us?" you asked. Todoroki does not respond, only letting a small hum as to let you know that he was thinking about your question.

"I mean we can go watch a movie with everyone....." he mumbles.

Todoroki moves a little to kiss your collarbone and you giggled softly when you felt his hair tickling your exposed skin. He's always quiet and reserved but when he's with you, he's very bold in showing his emotions and affection. It didn't take long for things to escalate. He began to leave little kisses on your neck as his hands roamed underneath your shirt. You softly whimpered at his gentle caresses and he wasn't putting too much pressure on your body. You stretched out your legs to get yourself comfortable as he continued to mark up your body.

The lights in his room were already off and the only source of light is from the moon outside. You did not plan this to happen. Todoroki has never been very vocal about wanting to have sex or become intimate in any way. You were normally the one initiating things and he usually gave small hints when he wanted to hold hands or cuddle. But one thing that's for sure is that Todoroki is more affectionate after you guys had sex. And you were really enjoying what he's doing right now.

"You're lucky that we have the day off tomorrow....." you mumbled, placing a kiss on his nose.

"But you never refuse even if we have classes the next day." Todoroki replied.

The next day when Midoriya and Iida did not receive any response from Todoroki regarding the plans for today, they both decided to ask Todoroki in person. They both had asked the stoic boy if he wanted to watch a movie together with a group of people. However, the response they received from Todoroki had been vague. So now the two males were sitting in the common area, having breakfast together. The rest of the students of Class 1-A were around too, having their own breakfast. But the only people missing were you and Todoroki.

"What if something's wrong with him?" Iida looks at his phone for the time, realizing that it's still 10 in the morning. 

“Good morning, everyone…..” the two boys heard your sleepy voice.

Still tired from not having enough sleep, you walk toward the fridge to grab some food to eat. Todoroki follows shortly and comes behind you to take something to eat. There's a palpable silence in the common area that goes unnoticed by you and Todoroki despite the two pairs of eyes focused on you two. Midoriya seems to be avoiding looking at you and Todoroki for too long, choosing to avert his gaze and focus on the meal he was having. On the other hand, Iida was too occupied with cleaning his dishes to even realize what was up with you two. Uraraka and Ashido joined Midoriya on the dining table, watching you and Todoroki.

Uraraka's face grew a bit red from what she was looking but she did not have any intentions of saying anything out loud. Instead, she nudged at Ashido who was openly staring and trying to make out what the story behind this was. Once Iida was done with cleaning his dishes, he turned to face you and Todoroki who were now sitting across Midoriya, Tsuyu, and Uraraka.

"You guys are up late. What were you up to last night―Oh...." Iida didn't even take look to read between the lines and was able to decipher what went down just from looking at you two. By this time, you were starting to feel more awake and glanced at your friends who were openly staring at you.

".....do I have something on my face?" you ask.

"Well no but we can see―"

"Oh my god, you two totally had sex last night!" Ashido's loud voice boomed throughout the entire common area.

The pink-haired girl skipped over to the dining table you sat on. You watched as the girl pointed an accusing finger at you and your boyfriend. The sudden exclamation made you drop the sandwich, and you could've sworn that your face just burst into flames. On the other hand, your boyfriend seemed as calm as ever, munching on his own sandwich. Your face turned bright red and the rest of your classmates were surprised at Ashido's sudden exclamation and lack of filter.

"Mina-chan, you can't just say that out loud." Tsuyu chided lightly.

"That's right, Ashido! You should consider Todoroki and [Last Name]'s feelings! They will feel uncomfortable when their private matters, especially sexual ones, are exposed to everyone when they've been trying to keep it a secret!" Iida added, which did not really help with your situation. All you could do was bury your face into your hands, trying to cover the blush that coated your cheeks. Todoroki started to feel a bit awkward too now that Iida has caught everyone's attention.

"Oh my god, I can't believe this is actually happening....." you mumbled to yourself.

"Soooo.....how long have you two been in a relationship?" Uraraka tried to bring it up casually but she couldn't hide the grin on her face.

"And why did you never tell us about it?" Hagakure joined in the conversation.

"How was Todoroki in bed?" Ashido slides next to you, giving you a smirk and wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.

"Oh my god, guys please drop it!" you huffed.

"Powerful quirk, good looks, and pretty girlfriend.....guys like him just get everything, don't they?" Kaminari groans out loud in which Mineta nods in agreement. The two boys grimaced in envy while Todoroki continued to eat his breakfast.

"So, how's the sex, pretty boy? I'm pretty sure that you had the time of your life." Mineta said mockingly. Todoroki did not seem to realize that his classmate was actually making fun of him.

"[First Name] is really good with―"

"Shouto, no!" you yelled angrily at your boyfriend.

Anyways, enough politics for today. Time for another MHA headcanon about another character I've neglected: Yaoyorozu has been doing a lot of weightlifting lately. Because of this, and because her Quirk requires her to eat to fuel it, she's developed a monstrous appetite.

with hawks

character: hawks

content warnings: feeling the need to hide your relationship from others

reader: gender neutral

✩ you tried keeping your relationship a secret, at first

✩ you’re an ordinary civilian. you’ve never been known for anything in your entire life, or held any sort of attention before. you don’t even have a decent following on social media. you don’t want to be thrusted into the spotlight—and everything it entails—just because you’re dating an important person

✩ you love him, but you don’t want to be just “the person dating winged-hero hawks.” you’re so much more than that. it’s insulting

✩ he doesn’t want that for you, either. you’ve lived a simple and quiet life, he doesn’t want to take that away from you. he loves you too much

✩ you would sneak him in through the window of your apartment in the middle of the night, to avoid attention, just to spend time together. the number two hero can’t simply be seen wandering into an apartment building for no reason, after all

✩ eventually, the both of you agreed that the effort was too exhausting; so, after a while, you moved in with him

✩ even so, nothing much changed. he leaves for work before the sun comes up, and returns home in the middle of the night, in the unholy hours of the morning. unless you’re awake during those times, he’s gone before you’ve even woken up

✩ he has days off, of course. one or two days a month. he used to never take breaks, before you. you’re the reason why he started to in the first place; you convinced him it’ll be better for his health that way

✩ it’s not much of an improvement, but it’s much better than him knocking on your window underneath the moonlight, on your weekends, after his shift was over; the both of you struggling to stay awake, just to spend time in each other's company

✩ you text throughout the day, during your breaks. sometimes, you send him selfies or random pictures; and he’ll do the same. it’s sort of like a long distance relationship…even though you sleep in the same bed

✩ on the days when he has to travel, far, far away, you miss him. you miss his warmth, and when he would press his lips to your temple, before leaving for work. you miss him accidentally waking you up in the middle of the night, burying the two of you in pillows. you miss the rare days you have with each other, huddled up on the couch in front of the tv

✩ it’s on one of those days that you realize that you don’t want to have to hide your relationship, not anymore. you don’t want to spend time with him only unconscious, or hidden away underneath his roof. you want to be with him, out and about, like any other couple

✩ the repercussions of this decision hits you like a truck. people look at you, and know you. people you don’t talk to anymore suddenly trying to reconnect with you. cameras, and microphones, and questions, constantly in your face

✩ it’s overwhelming, all this attention. you, a nobody before, content with that sort of life; quiet and undisturbed, and normal, and free

✩ but hawks keeps with you, the entire way. helps you, and at times guides you. and he loves you, so, so much. he respects your decision and supports you, however and whenever he can
