"L/N!"

The interjection escaped from the male's throat, dark circles locating below his vibrant red eyes from the continuous nightmare.

'L/N...!'

The matched color hair of his eyes male raced downstairs in a panic.

'You didn't escape, right?'

'You would never escape from me, right?!'

Kirishima ran into the living room, which L/N wasn't there.

"N- No, L/N..."

Eijirou's worry raised higher as he dashed to the kitchen, his palms were all wet and full of sweat.

'You have to be there, you have to be there...'

His clammy hand twisted on the doorknob of the kitchen's door, opening it wide.

His kitchen color radiated to him as a window was seen to be open. "L/N—!"

"What's wrong, Kirishima...?"

Queried the female-voiced with confusion in her tone.

The messy appearance male posture panted as he acknowledged that Y/N was in the kitchen, the pancake scent brewed around the lively-colored kitchen.

"Y/N!" Teared up the dyed-red-haired male as he rushed towards the H/C-haired female and wrapped his arms around the female's frame, inhaling her scent in relief.

The noise of chains rattling from L/N's ankles moving as she had no choice but to hug back to Kirishima, who was sobbing, in comfort.

The sigh emitted from the E/C eyed female.

"It's that nightmare again? Of me dying?"

The sniffles were heard from the man who embraced his lover, "Y- Yes... and it won't stop! L/N, you- you know, how much I love you that I keep gettin' those nightmares?"

His eyes began to swell up with tears again, "It ain't manly of me to cry over somethin' like this but...! I— I don't know what to do!"

L/N exhaled helplessly, trying to think of something to reassure the posture in front of her. Her hands placed on his tensed-up shoulders comfortingly.

"Don't be like that, Kirishima. I'm still here, I survived but..."

Explained Y/N then she moved around her legs that rattles of chains can be heard.

"... this."

The shark teeth male peered at her with his teary, tired eyes, showing a pang of slight guilt.

"L/N..."

L/N gasped, then drew the troubled male back in her embrace, patting his back. "Ah! I've made it worse, I'm so sorry, Kirishima! I shouldn't have, said that..."

The S/C-skinned female decided to ease up the atmosphere between them by separating their bodies and wiping Kirishima's salty tears away from his visible eyebags. "I've made some pancakes for breakfast. Do you want some?"

The large-framed male nodded unhurriedly, smiling gently. "I'd like that, L/N. But can you please sit on my lap when we eat?"

The bright red shade spread across his cheeks as he reasoned, "It puts me at ease to know that you're still here."

Kirishima then whispered quietly. "Not that I'm g'nna force you to."

"Sure thing, Kirishima."

The H/L-haired female shortly smiled then went to the counter to pick some pancakes on the plate for the Hardening-quirk male.

As the named hero Red Riot stretched out his muscles while walking towards the dining table.

"What do you wanna for a drink?"

"Hot chocolate! I love your hot chocolate, it's so tasty and manly!" He grinned, displaying his famous sharky smile, plus the eyebags.

"Coming right up!"
