A Love Song

Chapter 40. New Beginnings

The fire burned brightly. Blue flames consuming everything in its path to ash. It was time to say goodbye, time to die and be reborn. Or at least figuratively speaking.

I looked into his turquoise eyes, and he nodded at me. With a strong embrace we shut our eyes and met our fate –together.

Touya coughed loudly.

"Ugh. I think I'm going to be sick. I thought you said third time was a charm and shit. This fucking ain't it Dollface." Touya said holding his hand on his mouth.

"Babe, I meant you won't feel sick after the third time." I said bringing my hand to his cheek.

He smiled at me as we sat on his bed at his apartment. We both sighed as we gazed at each other, despite our worn-out appearance he still looked very handsome to me.

 "What now?" he asked in a soft tone. "With the surgical staples I threw on the floor, the hair piece you left behind, I'm guessing they think we're most likely dead."

"Yeah. Dead." I nodded. It sounded so weird to hear that. "It worked better than I thought."

He rolled his eyes at me, "Easy for you to say, it was fucking reckless. You have no idea how much you worried me."

"Sorry Touya, though I have to admit, this worked out better because no one will come after us. With the League thinking we're dead and my father too, we're safe. Honestly, I had a different plan. I was going to live in some hotel and have my father think I left with Leo. Aizawa said he was going to help me put my father behind bars in the meantime." I explained vaguely.

"You mean Eraserhead was helping you? And that crummy ex-fiancé of yours was in on your plan?" he stated bewildered. "Were you even going to tell me about it?"

I nodded, "Yeah I was. Actually I was still going to keep in contact with just you. Talking to Sho would've been too risky. And Daisuke too. But in the end I guess this is much better."

"You're so crazy. I love it." he said kissing my lips. "But you haven't answered my question, what now?"

I wish I knew the answer to that...

Time Skip~

It's official, to everyone we know, 'Dabi' and I are dead. I'm part happy part upset. Sho... Daisuke... Katsuki... Aizawa... Izuku... they all think we're dead. They must be heartbroken.

"They are so going to hate me for this." I grumbled as Touya sat down next to me on the couch.

"Yeah... maybe not hate but they're definitely going to suffer."

"This is the second time you've faked your death huh?" I ask him as I leaned towards him and he flicked my forehead.

"Well yeah dummy. But now it's different. It's not just me, it's both of us. Besides we still haven't decided what to do yet. Eventually we're going to run out of money. We're 'dead' we just can't go walking like we own the city and get a job. People will recognize us."

He had a point but... I rapidly stood up and beckoned him to follow me.

Touya rolled his eyes, "Why? Are you seriously leading me into bed to get my mind off of our worries. I ain't complaining but—"

"No Touya!" I whined embarrassed, "Just look over here, okay?"

I pointed under his bed and he tilted his head in confusion. I sighed and pulled out a box. "If those are sex toys Dollface, there better not be any dildos, you know very well I'm the only one capable of satisfying—"
