Woman of the Night. (Hawks x reader)

20: Maybe, we will be a family...

(Hawks POV)

Somehow we ended up in the hospital, I was holding the kid in my hands. I don't know why but that's how it had to be, I guess.

I saw them rush y/n into the surgery. Her body was so badly injured that I had to cover the kid's eyes. Her bones, arms and legs were broken. Her ribs and spine as well... Doctors didn't even say anything when I asked them about what's going to happen.

The Nurse took me and the kid into a separate room and patched both of us up and we were released within an hour. At about the same time as the arrival of Shota Aizawa. He was just as distraught as I was.

I was pacing in the hallway with my third cup of coffee. It has been 5 hours since they took y/n into surgery. Roku, the kid, was sleeping on the benches even after he was offered a bed. Aizawa was not moving his gaze away from the surgery's door. The normally sleepy and tired Aizawa was gone, I don't think he even blinked.

"Dad!" I heard a voice pierce the silence of the hospital and I quickly turn to it. Koda. He runs to me and jumped into my arms hugging me tightly. "Are you okay?" He sniffed

"I am fine kid," I placed my hand onto his head and hugged him tightly.

"Koda?" Roku asked in a sleepy voice and I picked him up too. I saw Erica rush into the corridor, completely out of breath. The kid must have run away.

"Roku!" They hug in my arms and then both hug me on each side, resting their little heads on my shoulders.

"Is she going to be okay?" Roku asked.

"I don't know kid" I whispered while lowering my head.

"Hawks? Mr Aizawa?" Someone called me from the side and we turn to that voice. It was the voice of a doctor. "Are these your children?" he questioned and pointed at the twins, I only managed to nod.

"How is she?" Aizawa asked.

"She lost a lot of blood, her bones were shattered in multiple places and her internal organs were also severely damaged." He pauses.

Well? Tell me what is going to happen to her now!

"But we managed to stabilize her." I exhaled and felt both twins hug me tighter. "She is incredibly strong, you are lucky to have her." He said

"Thank you, doctor." I whispered and then added, "When can we see her?"

"She is unconscious but if you want to see her, you can." We all followed him to the room and entered it. "We don't know when she will wake up, our best guess is in a couple of days." After this, he left the room.

"Aizawa," I started, placing the kids onto the floor, the man turned to me, he was still in bandages "I am sorry, I couldn't protect her." He approached me and calmly said.

"I and y/n have a rule: if we get hurt, never to blame anyone but the villains. You did everything you could. You lost your wings trying to save her and I am thankful to you. She knows what she is doing and that's what makes her a great hero... you would have done the same thing."

We stood in silence. I felt guilty in front of him, I didn't feel like I was doing enough.

It has been 4 days since the incident. The nurse with the regenerating quirk was coming to check and heal y/n every day and very soon her body was almost back to normal. The broken bones healed and the major other injuries did as well. Both Koda and Roku refused to leave and I caught Roku falling asleep on the very side of her bed.

Finally, on the 5th day, she moved.

I was alone in the room. The twins were taken for their daily examinations, so I stayed by her side with her hand in mine. All I wanted is to see her smile and maybe even laugh. I want to make her laugh... Have I ever heard her laugh? 

I felt a weak squeeze and looked at her as if my life depended on it.

"Hey, there feathers" I heard her week voice doubled with a week smile.

"Hey five" I answered while lightly kissing her knuckles. 

Her right hand was the most healed part of her body. She smiled.

"Did you miss me?" she joked. I let out a slight chuckle and kiss her hand again.

"I was worried sick for you, my love" I whispered into her hand.

'Did I really just say that? 

Screw it. 

I can't handle any more delays and going around the bush. 

I need to tell her, before some other villain attacks and before I lose my chance again, perhaps forever.'

"I am sorry for worrying you." She sweetly said as her finger traced my cheek and whipped a tear away. My head was low, almost on my hands and my hands were holding hers. Her voice is soft and her words warm up my heart. 

I wonder if it's the drugs speaking or she, herself?

Her eyes are sparkling. Something that I've never seen in anyone else. And this sparkle makes butterflies in my stomach flatter. It tightens and I have no control over my actions anymore.

"Will you go out with me?" I ask her, holding her cold hand to my lips.

"I will" she answered.

'Maybe we will be a family one day... and maybe Koda and Roku will finally have parents that they deserve...'
