Chapter 52- Next Step

Is anyone good at doing art because I would love a new cover for this story! Send me a message or comment if you're interested!

"Alright Y/N," the doctor removed the white bandage around my neck, "the burn is healing nicely, and the cuts are all healed,"

"Thank you," I say. My voice is a little quiet; I'm trying to use as little strain as possible on it, until everything is fully recovered, "when can I go home?"

"As soon as all the paperwork is filled out, you're free to go,"

"Thanks Dr. Himiko," I say. With the help of doctors and recovery girl, my neck burns are almost completely healed and all the cuts are completely gone. The doctor leaves with a smile, leaving Aizawa, my mom, and I in the room.

"So, next step is to keep you safe, Y/N," Aizawa started, "with these villains and ex-hero after you we do need to keep you hidden for some time. At least until they've made it clear they want nothing to do with you,"

Mom stands up, "Where do you think is the best place, or rather, the school? Considering the school is the reason she is in this mess,"

"The school had not officially authorized Y/N to confront the hero in question," He looks at me with guilty eyes, "however, I feel responsible for not keeping a closer eye and instructing you better, and I sincerely apologize for that,"

Now, I feel guilty. It's not Aizawa's fault, I knew for over a week and I didn't say anything, "No, Mr. Aizawa. It's not your fault, I should have told someone sooner,"

Aizawa just stares, "Y/N, how long have you known?" His eyes glowed red, fuck.

"Uh," I stammered looking for an answer, "a few days?"

"How long is a few days? Hm?" His voice was threatening. I looked at mom for help, but she just shrugged as if to say "You screwed up, you deal with it,"

"A week?"

"YOU WAITED A WEEK TO TELL ME THAT HAWKS WAS THE TRAITOR?" He bellowed out. His hair was flying and I was sure that he would kill me before Dabi would get the chance to.

A nurse walked in looking pissed, "Sir, please be quiet," she placed her hands on her hips, "you're in the recovery wing of the hospital, usually a place where people need quiet. If you can't stay quiet then I'm going to have to ask you to leave,"

Aizawa cleared his throat, "Of course, I apologize,"

"Thank you,"

The nurse leaves, and I silently thank her for coming in here, "Give me one good reason why you waited until they tried to almost kill you for you to have Bakugou tell me,"

I sigh, "We were... together," I spilled out. Aizawa's eyes widened. I couldn't look at mom.

"When I asked, you denied everything," Aizawa said.

"There was nothing going on then," I replied.

"Damn it, is this why you kept it a secret?"

I nod, taking a deep breath to keep the shame away, "I'm sorry. It was just so hard for me to just turn him in. I needed to sort out my own feelings first, which ended up screwing me over,"

I look at mom and her shocked expression, "Anytime you asked me if anything was going on, I didn't lie. There was nothing going on then,"

"When did things start?" her voice was hard with understandable anger.

"After he came over for dinner," I said quietly,

There is just silence in the room. The AC was off, there were no beeps of any monitors. Just the pure anger of the other two people anger in the room.

Finally, Aizawa lets out a long sigh, "It is... understandable that because of how you felt, you obviously were conflicted to tell me," he said, "but what happened is inexcusable, but for now we have a more pressing issue at hand,"

I look at him, knowing what he's going to say, "Dabi is alive and he made it very clear he's getting revenge,"

"How," my voice barely comes out, forcing me to clear my throat, "How, I stabbed him really close to his heart?" I say, this time it's audible.

Aizawa shakes his head, "Based on the amount of blood left behind and the patterns of the blood, he was seemingly dragged away, or maybe he dragged himself away. We did a quick sweep of the area and found blood spots, but no Dabi,"

"Okay, so Dabi is alive, what makes you think he's going to get revenge?" I asked

Aizawa pulls out a picture, "He left this," I take the picture from his hand and am horrified by what I see. A thick stream of blood that formed words was on the ground in the picture. The blood was thick, considering whoever, Dabi, was really bleeding out when he did this.

U WILL PAY.

Aizawa takes the picture back and hands it to mom, who makes a subtle gasp before handing the picture back to Aizawa and sits on the bed with me, reaching for my shaky hand.

"So what's the next step for Y/N?" Mom asks, "you know, to keep her safe?"

"The plan is to take Y/N to a safe house in a pretty secluded area. There will be pro's looking out for you, as well as 24 hour protection,"

I chuckle, "Isn't it a lot for one student?"

"You're valuable Y/N," Aizawa said, "don't sell yourself short. You figured out what most Pro's couldn't. You did your part, now let us do ours. Once you're discharged, we're taking you to the safe house where you will be for the time being until we catch Hawks,"

"How long will that be?" I ask, worried about his answer.

"Indefinitely,"
