"Could be worse."

"Shut up."

Following the recent events, drastic measures had to be taken for our safety. But this, this was ridiculous. Certainly Eugene moving into the penthouse of THE Hawks wasn't in my predictions.

In the end Eugene and I felt that one of us would be definitely taken and it would be best be him. Eugene is the type of person to freeze in the moment of danger, he can't protect himself.

He still beats himself up over it.

.

EUGENE POV

I felt a pang of guilt hit me when I see my stuff being moved in and I grimaced, "Sorry it's taking your space and making a mess here..." I mumbled an apology and Hawks shrugs,

"My place was a total wasteland before you arrived I won't judge." He reassures, well considering the fact that he lives alone and is solo it makes sense why his house would be a mess, no one is there to clean it up.

I still admired the penthouse though, im starting to feel bad for Y/n, I felt rich, she should stay with me for real. But I won't say that.

We took some hours break(which should have only been 30 minutes since there wasn't alot of storage) and continued back to moving my stuff.

.

"Finally! We're done!"

An exaggerated grumble escapes from my throat - but I did not care about manners anymore because I was tired as shit. I wiped my sweat off with the sleeve of my shirt, cringing in disgust when I see how wet it got.

I really need a bath.

"Sorry, can't really turn on air conditioning, it's under servicing." Y/n silently judges Hawks with a tiny hint of a raised eyebrow.

'The Number 2 Hero's air conditioning UNDER SERVICING? Crazy I'm sweating my 60 percent water off.' I complained to myself fanning my face with a piece of cardboard.

Hawks resolved our issues by simply flapping his wings in a gentle beat, just enough to circulate cool air around the room which satisfies us enough.

"You sure you're good on your own? One more could squeeze in ya know?" Hawks piped in, worry laces his tone, looking at Y/n.

Even though Y/n desired to come as much as she wanted to, she shook her head sadly.

"Hey what matters here is Eugene's safety, like what if they break in here and take the both of us then? One is better than two."

Now it was my turn to glare at her and she lightly kicks my hip to which I yowl in response - "I was joking!"

"Motherfucker!"

Hawks felt a smile crept up his face watching these two best friends bicker, hoping that his home would provide enough safety for him, and hopefully she would stay safe aswell.

BACK TO YOU

The sunset hovers over the skyline, it was almost becoming late. Which wasn't really the best time to keep hanging around now, ever since then - we had been keeping check of our timings and schedules, setting up curfews just to be extra careful.

Yeah it did suck. Better than a dead body though.

Hawks brought me back home, craziest experience of my life. Look- I never imagined myself flying while hanging onto Hawks for dear life.

Eugene was left back in Hawks' house, the pro hero came along so I wouldn't be alone, especially since it was getting nighttime - villains obviously lurk the streets in these hours.

.

I uninterestingly flipped through the TV channels, boredom washing over me like a tsunami.

'I wanna go out, but that's dumb.'

I thought to myself as I glanced out the window.

I get up and paced around the house, feeling it all sink in:

My life has practically changed. I can't live the same as I used to. Did I ask for this? Do I deserve it?

I was getting some water from the dispenser when I froze, my eyebrows furrowed.

I didn't feel alone.

My breathe hitches, choking my throat for a moment. I slowly turned my head around to look at the broad glass, then at the balcony, hoping I won't see anything that would send me running out for the fields.

I crept closer, yes it's dumb but I'm curious.

Not fully though, I held a knife behind me, a butcher knife. I'm not trained, but I know how to swing a knife as if my life depended on it.

'Come on I'm being supervised by a Pro Hero how can I not be the safest person ever?'

I bit my lip in anticipation to see what awaits me, seeing some faint movement behind the railings -

I live in the second floor! What even can climb up here?!

Some robber? Intruder? Villain?
