Gabenath Oneshots [Discontinued And Completed]

A Single Choice

Hawkmoth and Mayura smile at each other having just finished outrunning the heroes. Both were slightly exhausted but it was worth it. 

"You have to admit it's pretty fun when there isn't much to lose!" Hawkmoth gets out between staggered breaths.

“I’ll admit to having a bit of fun,” Mayura rolls her eyes although she did enjoy the feeling of freedom the miraculous brought now that it wasn't broken. The effects were still wearing off, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.

“We should do it more often then,” Hawkmoth suggests, “I feel like we haven't gone out in years.”

“Perhaps Nathalie can arrange more time into our schedules,” Mayura giggled. 

“Yes, she’ll have to. She's always been good about that though. Gabriel Agreste has never had a problem with her as his assistant.” 

"So you’ll talk to her?”

“I’ll get it all arranged,” Mayura promises. 

“I missed you, Mayura,” Hawkmoth admits. 

“It’s good to be back.” 

Then there's this time where Hawkmoth looks at his partner, not in a sympathetic or concerned way, but he looks her over, and takes it in. He was so close to losing her and while it hadn’t seemed so bad at the time, he wasn't sure what he would do without her now. 

“Mayura,” Hawkmoth is slow, trying to figure out what to say, how to say what he wants to.

Mayura hums, looking at the sky above, just appreciating the new freedom she hasn't had in a while. The fresh air feels brand new while she is above all of Paris. 

“I- you, you're just very pretty in that dress.”

Mayura turns to smile at him again, “you’re quite the charmer yourself,” she takes a step towards him now. 

“I don't know what I would have done without you,” he continues, “I’ve never thanked you enough for what’ve you done for me.”

Mayura is now inches away from him, “it’s never been a problem. I’ve always been willing to do anything for you.”

“Could you grant me one last favor?”

“Anything,” she swears. 

“Well, answer me this first, what would you do if I kissed you?”

“Are you willing to take the risk and find out?”

He leans down, closing his eyes just before their lips meet. Mayura closes her eyes as she reciprocates the kiss, the gentle touch of his lips unexpected for him.

“I’m not fighting for her anymore,” Hawkmoth insists, “you’re all I need.” 

“Are you being serious right now? I don't know if I can handle the thought of you lying to me.”

“It’s all real,” he swears, “I wouldn't lie to you.” 

“I love you,” Mayura whispers, her head drops a little with the truth.

Hawkmoth takes his hand and runs it down her face until he tilts up her chin. “How about one more akuma, just for fun?”

Mayura smiles before agreeing, one more couldn't hurt. 

Hawkmoth releases an akuma from his cane as it feels the familiar negative emotion of Luka Couffaine. 

“Silencer, they are trying to silence your voice so I’m giving you back the power to silence them.”
