ManipulationYou've been stuck in a toxic relationship with your boyfriend Dabi for a while now. He never listens to you, and then complains about how you never talk to each other.
So today is the day you finally decided to speak up.
"Dabi can we talk?"
"No"
"Well then I'll talk and trust that you'll listen."
"..."
"Look I just think this isn't really working out. We never talk and when we do it's an argument and this just isn't healthy for either of us."
"You knew what you were getting yourself into when this started, Y/n"
"Okay but I'm tired of it now. I would've hoped that you at least made an effort to show the slightest bit of affection, but you don't, you never did and haven't tried." You said, now a bit offended.
"Oh so it's all about me huh?"
He started, catching you a bit off guard."What about when you hang out with other guys behind my back, how do you think that makes me feel?"
"They're my friends.."
"Or, when I come home and you didn't make anything for me to eat after a longgg day-"
"A long day of what? Because I went to your 'job' and you aren't enrolled there Dabi. So please tell me, where do you go?"
"Wow.. first accusing our relationship falling apart in me, now you don't trust me? That's real low Y/n. I really thought you were different."
Those words made you freeze. Different? What did he mean exactly?
"What do you mean.. different..?"
"All of my exes were toxic and manipulative, I was hoping you weren't like that."
"I'm not-"
"Too bad you are. I really thought this could've worked out between us Y/n."
"I-..."
Dabi stopped what he was doing, to turn to you with a barely noticeable smirk.
"I'm sorry.." You managed to say.
"It really hurts me when you don't even look in my direction when I come in the room y'know? Not a hi or how's your day."
"I'm sorry"
"It's okay, even though it hurts, I still love you, Y/n"
You looked at him, teary eyed and trembling. Was it your fault the whole time? Had it really been you who'd been pushing him away?
"How could a heart like yours.. ever love a heart like mine..?"
Dabi walked over and held you close.
"Shh it's okay, get some rest. We have a long day tomorrow."
