If You Love Me So - ShigaDabi

A Gift - part 34

'Knock knock'. Someone softly knocked on Dabi's bedroom door. Dabi looked away from the blue haired man and up at the door. "Come in." Dabi said, a smile still on his face. "I just wanted to say bye before I head back to my dorm." Natsu peaked his head in the door after sliding it open a bit. "I thought you were staying over?" Dabi asked. "I was planning on staying till dad got back but ya know. Change of plans." Natsu gave a nervous laugh as he rubbed the back of his neck. Dabi stood up and hugged his brother. Tomura sat up to look at the two. "You still looking at that apartment Tuesday?" Natsu asked, breaking the hug.

"Ya, I can't stay in this house any longer." Dabi chuckled. "Oh god, he's finally growing up." Natsu fake cried as he threw an arm around the other man's shoulders. "I'm older than you dick." Dabi squirmed as Natsu ruffled his hair. "Send me some pictures of the place." Natsu let go. "See you around Shigaraki, it was nice to meet you." Natsu smiled at the blue haired man and ruffled his hair as well. "You too Natsu." Tomura laughed. "Happy birthday big bro." The white haired man said before he was gone.

 "His smile reminds me of my sisters." Tomura attempted to fix his hair. "You have a sister?" Dabi asked wearing a surprised expression. Dabi noticed the man tense up.

"Wanna see something cool?" Dabi asked looking down at the shorter man. Tomura's eyebrows furrowed, "I guess?" The man said. Dabi picked up a dark blue tank top from his bed and slipped it on before leading Tomura to the window across the room with large black curtains hung on them. He pushed the curtains to the side and unlocked the window, opening it. The breeze from outised flooded in. Dabi looked back at him with a smile before climbing out the window onto the roof. "Come on." Dabi put a hand out. Tomura hesitated, taking a step back from the window.

"You scared?" Dabi asked, the same smirk he always seemed to have appearing on his face. Tomura glared before climbing out the window, not paying any mind to the hand given to him. They were standing on a ledge now, beside them was the tall roof they would have to climb. Tomura's legs wobbled as he looked down. "Come on." Dabi said as he began climbing his way up. Tomura let out a groan before following behind him.

Tomura finally got to the top, looking up to see Dabi already sitting down. "Look." Dabi pointed up at the sky. Tomura looked up in awe. The sky was a mix of purple and black and there was stars scattered all over. The Moon's light peaked through the clouds. Tomura climbed up carefully and stood beside the man. "It's so pretty." Tomura spoke. "Thank you for showing me." Tomura smiled at Dabi as he sat down.

Dabi gave him a smile before looking back up. They both went silent for a while.

"I told you about my scars, tell me about some of yours." Dabi said, turning his torso to the man. Tomura contemplated a bit, trying to remember where most of them came from. Dabi noticed everytime he's focused he furrows his eyebrows, like when Tomura gave him the flower tattoo on his right hand.

"I have a bunch of small ones on my back from police training." The man spoke finally. "But I do have a bigger one right here." The man pointed to a light scar below his jaw. "That ones from that guy that used to bully me." Tomura tucked some hair behind his ear. "I fought back for once and he got his knife out and cut me." The man gave a nervous chuckle

"Jesus." Dabi gave him a concerned look. "And that's about all the scares I feel comfortable talking about." Tomura shivered as the wind blew again, his hair flowing behind him. Dabi bit his lip and looked forward again, remembering the scars on Tomura's wrist the doctor at the hospital had pointed out. Dabi remembered feeling so angry overhearing the two.
