Chapter 17

♧ ♧ ♧
"You didn't say anything at all" you said trying to take a deep breath. "If it were the other way around, I would have shut that shit down immediately." You said and he just looked at you and started to walk towards you.

He stopped in front of you and you just looked up at him, your breath still unsteady.

"I'm sorry" he said and you shook your head.

"No"

"Y/n I'm sorry" he said and you shook your head.

"No no!" You said closeing your eyes trying to push him away.

"Y/n!" He raised his voice and grabbed your shoulders making you stay still. "Take a deep breath" he said and you nodded and tried to breath. "I'm sorry" he said again and pulled you into a hug.

You hugged him back and grabbed onto his jacket and squeezed tight. He wasn't sure what to do but this is what his mom would do when he was getting upset. He had seen you angry but this was different. You were feeling rage and Dabi had never seen that from you. You were normally calm and collected but he didn't know what triggered you. He just held you until you let go.

"I'm sorry" you said taking a deep breath and looking at him. "I shouldn't have blown up on you"

"It's fine." He said and you nodded "come on lets go back in"

You followed him and he opened the door for you. As you walked in everyone looked at you and you just looked at jasmine who looked like she felt guilty.

"What was that about?" Shiggy asked

You looked at Jasmine and then at Dabi. You wanted so badly to just tell him that you were the one who got Aizawa until Jasmine looked at you and was practically begging you not to. You looked at Dabi who was just looking at you and you closed your eyes and sighed.

"Nothing" you said and Dabi shook his head.

You sat there and tuned out everything that was going on around you. You wern't quite sure why you did that but you know that when you did it made you feel small. After it was over you decided to leave right away. You walked around the city not going to any particular place. You wandered around until you heard a girl laugh very loudly. You looked over and she was with her friends and she was very obviously drunk. You stopped walking looking at where they came from. It was a tattoo shop. You walked across the street and stood in front of the building debating if you should go in.

"Are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna go in and get one?" A man smoking outside asked.

"I'm not sure yet" you said looking over at him.

"Do you have any tattoos?" He asked and you nodded.

"Yeah right here" you said putting your hand on your tattoo.

"Pretty painful spot" he said "how about you go in and I draw up something and you decide if you want it"

"You work here?" You asked and he nodded. "Sure why not"

You walked in with him and he brought you to the back. He started drawing and a little later he was done. When he showed you, you loved it. It was a back tattoo. It was a black arrow with a red dragon wrapping around it and said in small cursive 'the silent anti hero". You looked up at him.

"How did you know?" You asked and he smiled.

"Dabi comes here pretty often to get his piercings, and he talked about you a lot" he said "he never said your name but he described you in detail so when I saw you I knew it was you"

"How many people here know?" You asked.

"Just me" he said getting his machine ready. "But it's not like anyone here would rat you out, this is a tattoo shop that welcomes villains. Lift up the back of your shirt"

"Who said I was getting the tattoo?" You asked with a smile.

"Come on this is a great tattoo that no one else but you could pull off" he said.

"And what about the words?" You asked.

"If you want I can hide it in the dragon" he said and you agreed.

He fixed up the tattoo and then made the stencil. You straddled the chair and lifted up the back of your shirt and unclipped your bra. He put the stencil on and got to work. It didn't hurt to bad at most on a scale of 1 to 10 it was a 4. You sat through the tattoo just chilling. He told you stories about Dabi and they made you laugh a bit. After about 4 hours he was done. He wiped it down and put saniderm on it. You liked the way it looked. It wasn't to masculine and it would still look pretty with a backless dress. You walked up to the front with him.

"How much?" You asked and he laughed.

"On the house" he said.

"No, I can't let you do that. Let me pay you" you said putting your card on the counter.

"How about this, this one is on the house and you can pay for the next one" he said and you sighed and nodded.

"What's your name by they way" you asked before leaving

"Ethan" he said and you nodded with a smile.

You walked out of the shop and it was around 11. You started walking to your apartment. You walked in the door and Jasmine was waiting for you.

"Where have you been" she said standing up.

"Why do you care?" You asked.

"Because you are my friend" she said

"Really? Because you had a funny way of showing it earlier"

"Look I get that your upset..." she said "I just wanted to get some praise... I don't take your credit a lot of the time" she said and you laughed a bit.

"Your right, because you take it all the time" you said walking towards her. "You have taken credit for everything I have done and today was no different. So how about you drop this whole 'I'm so innocent' act, you knew exactly what you were doing and thats why you looked so guilty when I came back in."

"You had a chance to rat me out so why didn't you?" She asked crossing her arms.

"Because I didn't want to embarrass you anymore than you already did" you said walking to your room.

"What does that mean?"

"It means everyone in that room besides shiggy knew you fucked up" you said stopping. "So not only do they see you as a fuck up, they also see you as a liar" you said then walking into your room.

You shut the door behind you and sighed. You got in bed and laid down still being able to smell the soft scent of cigarette smoke on the side of the bed Dabi slept on. You inhaled deeply and closed your eyes. You felt like shit and you still felt angry and the words Dabi said kept coming to mind. 'Why do i feel like thats not all your upset about'. He wasn't wrong you had been feeling a bit agitated for awhile now, today was just the boiling point.
