Keigo's POV
TW!: [Mentions of Death] (Tell me if there are any more Trigger Warnings!)
...
It had been 11 years since Touya died in that fire...I miss him...but I've gotten over his death now! I've gotten therapy! But I still miss him...that's normal, right? Right, yeah, that's normal. 'Fuck, if I hadn't been so nervous, maybe I could have confessed to him...maybe I wouldn't be as miserable...' I thought to myself, wrapping my wings tightly across my body as a form of comfort, I sat down on the floor of the alley and hugged my legs to my chest, resting my chin on my right knee.
The Hero Commission had chosen me to infiltrate the League of Villians. I didn't really want to. But I did. I don't know why I took up the responsibility of gathering information from them. It's just so annoying how the Commission control everyone working for them. It's not fair. But then again, life isn't fair, is it? I learned that with Touya...
"Oi, someone in here?" A voice rang out in the alley, startling me. I jumped up and flung my wings out, looking around the small passageway. 'Where are they? I can't see them...damn it's too dark, where are they? WHO are they?' I thought to myself, getting in a fighting position, I then saw blue flames out of the corner of my eye. 'Crap-'
I flew up as blue flames engulfed the narrow path, burning the tips of some of my feathers, and sending ripples of pain up my body. I landed on a rooftop, which overlooked the alley. I saw a very scarred man with black hair and what looked like blue eyes. Hey, I know who this is. It's Dabi, a key member of the League of Villains. This is the perfect opportunity to capture him!
"I know you're here, birdie. Why else would I attack for no reason?" Dabi called out, looking up at where I was perched. 'Damn it, can he see me?' And as if he could read my mind, he called out again. "I can see you, you know. You aren't very stealthy for a top hero, y'know that right?" He remarked smugly. I just sighed and flew down from my hiding spot, landing in front of him.
"What do you want?" I asked him, cocking my head to the right, genuinely interested in what he had to say. 'What am I doing? He's a villain for crying out loud! Just grab him and fly off to the police! That's all you have to do!... But why aren't I moving?'
"I didn't want anything. You're the one who flew on down to me. Quite dumb if I do say so myself, birdie." The taller male said, and I just realized what sort of mistake I made. I quickly tried to fly away from him but was stopped by him grabbing my shoulders, his fingers slightly rubbing where my more sensitive feathers are, causing a slight blush to form on my face.
"Let go of me." I hissed at him, looking over my shoulder at Dabi, narrowing my sharp eyes at him. He had this stupid little smile on his face. I realized his hands were heating up and they had moved to grip the arms of my wings. "...Dabi, let fucking go..." I warned again, my wings twitching from his warm hands.
"What if I said no?" He sneered, I could feel his eyes trained on the back of my neck. I didn't like this, not one bit. What was Dabi planning? 'Oh, god, please don't tell me you're gonna burn off my wings...please, don't...' I prayed to any god that was listening, I was scared- no...terrified, at the thought of losing my wings. I couldn't live without them.
Dabi's POV
...
I grabbed Hawks by the arms of his wings, making him stop. I noticed he looked back at me, his face was a little bit red...interesting. "...Dabi, let fucking go..." he hissed at me. He could probably tell what I was doing. But he couldn't do anything. because I had his wings, and he only relies on his wings, does he not?
"Once again. No." I said back to him, letting my hands heat up more and more, I saw a bright red feather fly up to my face and start to rub against my cheek, making me confused and try to swat it away, accidentally letting go of Hawks.
"Haha! You fell for it...!" Hawks exclaimed, whipping around to face me, his feather zooming back to his wings. I had to admit, that was a good move. 'Oh, Keigo. You won't get me next time~' I thought to myself in glee as I took a few steps back, preparing for Kurogiri to come.
"Well...see you next time, Hawks." I chuckled, then took one last step and fell through Kuogiri's portal, making Hawks yell in surprise and dive forward, trying to catch me, though the portal closed before he could get through, making him fall to the ground.
I laughed and fell into the League's base, landing on Tomura, who had been crossing through the living room to the bar, supposedly to get a drink or something. I wouldn't know, nor do I care. "Hey! Dabi, watch it!" He hissed at me as he pushed me off of him with his gloved hands, glaring at me through the hand he was wearing, obscuring his face.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Oi, Kurogiri. Give me a shot of Whiskey, will ya?" I said to the bartender, who was called Kurogiri, basically the League's babysitter, earning the title from Toga, 'Mamagiri', yes, I do call him that, but not often. It makes Toga's day when she hears me call him that, so when Toga's around, I make sure to use her nickname.
"Alright, Dabi." Kurogiri sad, sliding me the shot. I quickly picked it up and drank it swiftly. It tasted sharp, though good. It had a hint of vanilla in it, which I always appreciated. I got off of the barstool I was sitting on before walking over to the couch and sitting down, closing my eyes, and sighing.
'Oh, Keigo. You haven't realized it yet, but you're oh so close, aren't you? So close to finding your Childhood Best Friend. I knew someone didn't forget about me...you. You didn't forget me.' I thought to myself, repeating those words over and over in my mind, thinking about what I and Keigo had done together...it was...nice.
Flashback. (No one's POV)
...
"Hey! Hey, Keigo!" Touya called out, rushing over to his best friend and hugging him tightly, burying his face in Keigo's neck, making Keigo jump, startled. Keigo soon started to laugh as he hugged his friend back, looking down at him with innocent, yellow-brown eyes.
"Yes, Touya?" He asked, patting his friend on the back, sitting down on the ground, and petting his hair. They flirted with each other a lot, though they didn't like each other. It was just a silly, harmless joke! Right? Right.
"I-I think I like someone!" Touya said, looking up at Keigo with his heavily-lidded icy-blue eyes. Hearing that made Keigo hurt, jealousy rushing through his body. Why did he feel like this? He had never felt like this before...he didn't like this new feeling...
"W-Who is it?" Keigo asked, leaning down to look Touya straight in the eyes. Though, Touya pushed his head back and stood up, leaning down to talk to Keigo.
"I can't tell you~" Touya laughed and bolted off, leaving Keigo behind, surprised, hurt, and jealous. He just had to tell him, didn't he? Why couldn't he have kept it to himself? Not tell Keigo? It's because Keigo is his best friend. That's why.
"W-Wha...?" Keigo mumbled, very hurt by what just happened. He didn't know what to do but just sit there. He slowly wrapped his wings around himself, crying into his knees. Why was he acting like this? He doesn't like Touya! Or does he...?

End of Flashback...

Dabi's POV
'Recalling those memories...why does it hurt? Damn, I haven't felt emotion in years. Why know? and why him?' I kept on thinking to myself, 'God, it's just Keigo. It's not like you like him anymore. So stop thinking about him and get your shit done. You know what? I'm going to bed. I'm too tired to deal with this like this.'
I then fell asleep on the couch, cause I was too lazy to go back to my room. It was peaceful, everyone was out on a mission. Except for Tomura, of course. He was throwing a hissy fit because I landed on him when Kurogiri brought me back, that was not my fault.
