Hawks Cares for You While Injured

Alert! Alert! Number 9 pro hero, Wolf Hero: Satomi, is suffering from amnesia from a fight with a villain! Will she ever regain her memories and return to being the her we love so much? Our hearts go out to her and her loved ones through this difficult time.

"...I'm still not sure I made the right decision."

"About?"

"Letting you take me home. Is this even my home?" You look around from where you're seated on the couch, not seeing any pictures in the living room.

Hawks sighs. "It's your home. You keep your pictures in your bedroom because you like to think of the people you love and miss before you go to sleep and when you wake up in the morning."

"Do I have any pictures of you?"

"Yup."

You scrunch your nose. "So what exactly is my relationship with you? You were kinda vague at the hospital."

"That's because we agreed to keep it a secret that we were dating because of my fangirls and your fanboys."

"I have fanboys?" You raise an eyebrow, glancing at yourself in the windows. "I don't look like much right now."

"That's 'cause you're covered in bandages. You should be nearly done healing by now, by the way. But you should see yourself when you're focused and fighting a villain. You get this fearlessness about you that's just really hot. You wear it well." Hawks smiles, his wings fluffing lightly.

"...You're getting feathers on my floor."

"So you finally believe I really did take you to your condo?"

"..."

Hawks sighs again and runs a hand through his hair tiredly. "Look, why don't I cook you up some food? You didn't eat much at the hospital, so you've got to be hungry."

"What if you try to poison me?" You counter, rising and raising an eyebrow.

"You can watch me make it. Besides, you'd smell it right away if I tried to poison you. Speaking of, can't you smell that I'm not nervous, so I'm obviously telling the truth?" Hawks pouts, his wings drooping to the floor as he sags.

You eye him warily, your ears twitching as you listen to his calm, steady heart, and you sniff the air, noticing that there's no smell of sweat or adrenaline. You sigh, crossing your arms. "Fine, maybe you are. I still don't know you right now, though, so it's going to take some time for me to trust you."

"I'm okay with that, just please give me a chance," Hawks pleads, folding his hands together and giving you puppy dog eyes.

That's so cute...! No! Bad [name]! You don't know him! But... why is part of me reacting as if I do? As if seeing him have to beg for me to give him a chance physically hurts me..?

You sigh frustratedly, pushing your hair out of your eyes. "Fine. Alright. Whatever." A tinge of pink heats your cheeks as you look away from him, your heart a tangled mess of confusion.

"Yes! Thank you, [name]!" Hawks pecks your cheek, a grin of exultation on his face. "You won't regret it!"

"I-- Uh-- Just because I'm giving you the chance for me to trust you doesn't mean you can kiss me!!" You exclaim, covering your face with your hands and looking at the floor.

My heart's beating so fast... Who does he think he is, just kissing me like that? My boy-- Oh, right. Yeah, he said that. But--but still! If I'm actually his girlfriend, he-he should know better than to just randomly kiss me while I can't remember anything...!

Your tail starts wagging lightly, brushing against your legs against your will.

Oh my gosh, stop! Aaagghhh!!

"Right, right. I'll let you make the first move," Hawks says, winking with a sly grin on his face. He clearly sees your tail wagging happily, being attuned to your every movement and reaction.

"Go make my food, you flirt!!"

"Aye aye, Captain!" Hawks salutes, striding into the kitchen to cook up [favorite food].

"Shut up!"

~

"It's good, right?"

"..."

You sit, chewing your food in silence. You don't want to admit it, but it's amazing. Hawks really knows how to cook.

You swallow your food, looking at the man who calls himself your boyfriend in interest. "Hawks can't be your real name, is it?"

"Erhm, no." He shakes his head. "It's my hero name."

"You're a hero?" You look at him in surprise.

Hawks nods, taking another bite of his food. After he swallow it, he says, "You are, too. We're both heroes."

"Oh. What's my hero name?"

Hawks smiles. "It's Satomi. You told me it was because the name meant, 'beautiful and wise.' I think it suits you, because it matches you perfectly."

You nod slowly, looking at Hawks again. "If Hawks isn't your real name, then what is? You know mine, isn't it only fair I know yours?"

Hawks chuckles. "You do know my name. I've told it to you once before because I like to keep it a secret. I'll tell you it again, though, so come here." He gestures to you with his index finger, indicating for you to come closer.

You scooch closer to him, putting your ear against his cupped hands.

"Takami Keigo," he whispers, pulling back with a tender smile on his face.

"Keigo..." You whisper, the name rolling off your tongue. "It feels familiar, and yet I don't remember why... Keigo..." You smile softly, looking down at your hands. "I like it," you lower your voice to where Hawks can't hear you anymore.

Keigo's eyes soften as he looks at you lovingly. "That's right, [name]. I'm Keigo."

You look up at him, seeing his golden eyes looking into your own with warmth radiating from him.

Keigo... Such a pretty name... I think... I think I remember him telling it to me before? Was it like this one? Yes... He whispered it to me then, too. Did he do that on purpose in hopes that I might recall the memory?

"I like it." You smile at him, setting your empty plate onto the coffee table and leaning into his side, your head on his shoulder. Your tail wraps around your waist and falls onto his leg as his wing comes behind you and wraps itself around you. You sigh in contentment, closing your eyes. "This feels familiar. And warm. So very warm..." You snuggle into him, quickly falling asleep.

"Sleep well, [name]. I'll be here when you wake up..." Hawks whispers, kissing your forehead gently.
