Achille's Heel (DabixReader)

Chapter Twenty-Six

This chapter contains SPOILERS!! If you have already watched the camp arc in season three you're fine! <3

Another week went by and you and Dabi didn't see each other much during that time. At first, you thought maybe he was just nervous about what had happened the last time the two of you were together. You knew what he was thinking...he was scared you would get pregnant. It wasn't something the two of you had ever talked about, having kids or even a prolonged future together. All you knew was that you loved Touya and he loved you. He had made a promise of burning the world to be with you. Even though you weren't sure what that meant, you believed him and you trusted him. You wanted to be with him and he wanted to be with you. It may not be ideal, but either way, you knew the two of you could make it work.

He was mostly quiet, only responding to your texts a couple of times a day. You had tried to see him but he told you it wasn't a good time and he was busy doing things for the league. You didn't press on what it was, but you were a little worried. Whatever it was, it was clearly taking up a lot of his time and energy.

You and Fuyumi were relaxing at home in your apartment getting ready for the coming week. She was out from work, enjoying her summer break from teaching. It had been a nice and relaxing weekend for the two of you and you were doing some laundry. You folded a shirt and placed it on the stack of clothes atop your bed. When your phone buzzed with a text you pulled it from your pocket and looked at the screen. The smile that spread across your lips was short-lived as you read the text.

Dabi: I love you. Whatever you hear, just know that I have everything under control.

Y/N: Wait, Touya...what are you talking about?

Dabi: I don't have time to explain, little light. I'm sorry.

You sat down on the side of your bed feeling like your heart was going to beat out of your chest. You tried calling him twice but each time you were sent to voicemail.

"Did you have any ideas for dinner?" Fuyumi appeared in your doorway. Her face dropped when she saw your panicked expression. She rushed to your side and grabbed your hand in hers. "Woah. Y/N, what's wrong? Are you ok?"

Your eyes slowly panned up to your best friend's face. Your hands were shaking as you placed your phone face down next to you, letting out a shaky sigh.

"I...I'm ok," you mumbled.

She tilted her head a little and looked at you. "Are you sure? Your voice and your face say otherwise, honey."

You close your eyes and take in a deep breath before you look at her. "I don't really know what's going on...but, To-" You stopped, swallowing hard as you realized you almost said his name aloud to her. She gives you a questioning look and you come up with a quick alias. "Toyashi has a big job to do and it seems like it might be...dangerous. I'm just worried about him is all," you sighed and put your face into your hands.

Fuyumi wraps you in a big hug, pulling you close to her. You melt into her cozy embrace, feeling so loved by your dearest friend. She holds you at arm's length by your shoulders and offers you a soft smile. "Don't worry, Y/N. He seems like a good man. I'm sure he'll be fine."

You nod and smile at her sheepishly. "Anyway, what were you coming to ask?"

"Oh! I was just wondering if you had any ideas for dinner."

You and Fuyumi sit on the couch, giggling at the sitcom on the television as you both eat from your takeout containers. You take another bite of your dinner and hum as you nod to her.
