Fall Deeper

Violet POV:

10:45pm.

"Well, that took you a million-and-one fucking years." Dabi drawled out once I finally walked through the door to our hotel.

And, yeah, he's not wrong. My visit with Midas took well over an hour. I left at dinner time, and it's long past it now.

I let out a tired sigh at the events of the day, feeling legitimately worn out from the anxiety I'd felt, just having to converse with that terrifying jeweled man.

"Oh....yeah, sorry..." I murmured to him distractedly, trudging over to the counter to drop my keys atop it.

Dabi didn't even look up from his phone at my entrance, whistling to himself softly as he lounged on his bed.

"How was the tampon store?" He asked casually, causing my blood to freeze in remembrance at the lie I told him.

Crap. I came back empty handed!!!

No, no, no. Don't panic. He hasn't even looked up at me since I walked in. I bet he hasn't even noticed I don't have any products.

"Oh..." I started out with a soft clear of my throat, trying to remain calm as I looked down at my feet. "I...well, actually, I-"

But, I never got to finish my sentence as I felt a little box lightly bonk me in the side of the head, causing me to catch it as it fell and looked down.

It was a box of half full tampons. My box!!

"You just..." Dabi started out, lethargically rising up to sitting as he finally looked up at my gaping face of panic. "You just didn't really go to the tampon store, because you already had them, right?"

My mouth fell open like a dead fish as I blankly looked from the tampon box to Dabi, trying to think up an excuse.

Alright, no problem. There are a million different excuses I could make. The only thing I should not do...is panic.

Anticipated silence consumed the space between Dabi and I, neither of us moving a hair out of our places as we both awaited my answer.

I slowly fiddled with the box in my hand, pursing my lips as I looked up at Dabi.

"Oh. Well, I just-" I quickly cut off in a panic, involuntarily chucking the tampon box at Dabi's head to give myself a head start.

The moment the box left my hands, I immediately turned on my heel to make a break for the door.

The plop behind me signaled that the box smacked Dabi in the face, before I heard him knock it to the floor and jump off the bed.

"Bitch." He breathed out in surprise as his heavy footsteps barreled across the room now, causing my heart to pound in adrenaline as I reached the doorknob.

Hah! He's too late!

Not even looking back, I immediately threw the door open, taking a single step out of the room before the firm grip at the ends of my hair halted me.

"Ah!! Hair!-Someone help me! There's a murderer trying to kill me!" I shouted like a dunce, feeling my scalp aching in pain as Dabi used my hair to drag me back into the room.

On instinct, my hand came flying backwards behind me, before I heard and felt my slap connect with his face.

"Heh. Joke's on you. I like that." He snickered smugly, causing me to groan in irritation and pain as he pulled me fully back inside.
