Burn me then you turn me (On Hold)

Chapter 14

Hair Dye?

<Dabi's POV>

I clear my dry throat as my mind races back and forth on how to answer. I've answered this question about a million times in my life and every time I answer with the same sarcastic, witty answer but somehow this time feels different. It feels like my answer should be different but I don't know why...
I look around at all the eyes in the room, all of the eyes that are all watching me and waiting. I open my mouth in hopes that an answer will just flow out when suddenly the room's door is swung open and a shadowy figure appears in the doorway. Screams of surprise can be heard from a few of the others in the room with me but all I can do is stare at the door unphased. Toga and Twice would do this all the time when they had something to gossip about.

The shadowy figure steps into the room to reveal a tired man with long black hair and a mug of coffee.
"Lights out curfew was 2 hours ago" he examines the room whilst taking a sip out of his mug but he stops when his eyes fall onto me. He gives me a questioning look and subtly mouths the words 'are you ok?'. I'm taken aback by this and look around, maybe he's saying it to someone else but no. Everyone else is packing their things up. I turn back to him and nod my head slowly he gives me a nod of his head back then turns to everyone else.
"All of you back to your own dorms before I give you a week's detention with Mic" and with that, we all leave for our own rooms to sleep and prepare for the morning of classes.

**4 days later**

It's been almost a week since I was kidnapped and brought to UA. I was under the impression that I was being somewhat civilized for the most part but apparently not considering I've found myself sent to Aizawa's office. Aizawa sitting in front of me telling me to wait as he finishes his last scribble of words on some paper.

"I'm going to start off by saying the cliche of you're not in trouble," I let out a somewhat shaky breath I didn't even realize I was holding and played it off with a scoff.
"However" That catches my attention as I look at him curiously. He sighs and finally turns to me.
"Look I'm going to put it frankly. I, and much other staff, have gotten complaints about how dirty you are and that you...smell?" I scrunch up my nose s I shift in my seat uncomfortably. Well, talk about not beating around the bush.
"Excuse me?"
"Look I'm not trying to offend you I'm just telling you now before students try to fix it themselves. So, When was the last time you showered here?" I feel the heat rise up to my face as I silently beg for it not to.
"How dare you. What kind of person asks someone that" I exclaim annoyed as I get up to leave.
"You haven't since you got here. Am I right?" I stop to glare at him and he gives me a defeated sigh and hands me a piece of paper.
"Look I really don't want to do this but Nezu has basically ordered that you either wash by yourself or you will be sedated and have it done for you"

Panic, Anger, Fear I feel it all right now, are these guys meant to be heroes? Oh, who am I kidding? Being a hero doesn't mean shit. I take a step backward towards the door preparing myself for another great escape, the paper falling from my hand. Aizawa gives me a weird look and puts his hands up like he's surrendering.
"It's ok Dabi. I don't agree with this either, I think it's quite disgusting actually. But for your health, you need to bathe. If there is anything stopping you let me know but please don't make me have to go through with this kid just make it easier on yourself" I take a shuddering breath as my body relaxes a bit, he's as unwilling to do this as I am. Clearing my throat in an attempt to make it feel less scratchy I look down at the floor. I then turn away and start walking towards the dorms, footsteps follow behind me and stop me as I reach my room.

"What are you doing?" Aizawa asks me out of breath.
"Showering. Isn't that what you wanted?" I state as I enter my room and grab the various unopened bottles of shower gel and shampoos.
"Ok. Is there anything that you need me to get?" he asks me as he leans on the wall in the doorway. I turn to him, my hands filled with clothes, a towel, and whatever else you bring in a shower.
"Hair dye. I need black hair dye, only temporary, my hair is too fragile for permanent because of my quirk" I state with a defeated sigh.
"Hair dye?" He looks at me questioningly then shrugs. "Ok If that's what you need then I'll get it when I can. Any particular brand?" I shake my head.
"No. It doesn't matter as long as it is temporary any brand is fine" The man nods his head at me and walks out of the doorway to let me through.
"Ok. The others are all in class so you shouldn't be interrupted. I will get you hair dye when classes are over" I nod in acknowledgment as I head down the stairs to the showers.
"I have a class in five minutes so don't burn the dorms down or kill anyone" and with that, he leaves me.
