Chapter 5: Healer

“Who's there?”

Before the heroes could get a glimpse of you or Dabi, you hurried your way in his direction. Grabbing him by the wrist, turning him invisible before they could get a glimpse of him.

Dabi gave you a smirk. His face is so close to yours that your nose bumped into his. You could hear your heart beating out loud, you hoped that he can't hear it right now.

You inhaled a delicate scent coming from Dabi with a hint of cologne.

“Did you just…showered?” You whispered.

He tilted his head and was about to say something. But you quickly covered his mouth and pinched his arms, giving him a ‘shut up’ look and pointed at the heroes nearby.

“Oh. Is that Endeavor over there?” He whispered to your ear, his soft voice making you shiver. You kicked him again, this time harder.

Endeavor stood firm beside the hero with red wings. “I don't think this is a safe spot for us to have a chat, Hawks.”

Endeavor and Hawks walked away from this alleyway. As they were leaving this place, Hawks turned around to look back, and you swore that both of you just made eye contact.

It's like he could see you all of a sudden even with your quirk activated. For a moment, it feels like you're visible. But you're not.

Hawks then turned away, and continued walking. As he walked past you and Dabi, you rolled your eyes at Endeavor.

“I swear I could feel someone's presence back there.” The Wing Hero said.

When you are sure that they're gone, you let go of Dabi's wrist. Turning him back to visible.

“You know, for a second, I thought you were going to turn me in.” Dabi uttered while rubbing his wrists. “Hey, I can't see you now.”

You kicked his leg. “I'm right…” You grabbed his wrists again, turning him invisible. “here.” You let go of his wrists again. “You can't see me if I'm not using my quirk on you.”

“So, you have a grudge against Endeavor or something?” Dabi asked you.

You deactivated your quirk, making yourself visible to the naked eye. “If he has no haters, then I'm dead.”

He gave you a smile. “Looks like we have something in common. Boss's waiting for us, let's go. We're late, Y/n.”

Him calling you by your real name made you think about something. You pause for a while. “Since you know my real name, what's yours?”

You're pretty sure that ‘Dabi’ isn't his real name, and is just a false name.

He stayed silent, then, “Dabi.”

“I may be stupid, but I'm not always stupid.”

“Ha!” He laughed, “Stay curious then, Y/n.”

He walked away from you and you followed his footsteps, leaving this alleyway. You turned around to see if someone was behind you. But when you did, no one was there.

You are not expecting to meet up with the League this soon. But you keep reminding yourself why you're doing this in the first place.

For the money.

This will be temporary. You'll get out of this mess eventually.

Shigaraki is tapping his feet on the ground rapidly when the both of you enter the hideout. You couldn't see his face as it was being covered by a hand, but you can feel that he's angry.
