Tomura Shigaraki x male reader

23.

Tomura stiffened.

"You what?"

You're frozen in shock. "What the fuck did i just say?" You didn't fully understand where this feeling came from. Only thing you knew was that you had to bring Tenko back to reality, you had to stop AFO, you had to make it right.

"No, I didn't mean it like that... I just... Okay, forget it" You frantically continued to collect the figurines and put them back on the shelves, dropping some of them due to trembling hands. Shigaraki was still staring at you without moving.

«No, wait. You can't just say and then forget it». He came very close to you. Too close for you.

«Look, I got emotional."

"Yeah, a hundred times." Tomura crossed his arms over his chest.

"Yeah, a hundred times." You continued to clean up, trying to ignore the heart pounding in your throat and the asshole standing over your soul. "Don't fuck around, better help me clean your room."

"Don't fuck around, and talk to me normally!" He grabbed your hand and you dropped some kind of notebook. You looked at it. The inscription on it read "The most secretive".

"What's there?" You looked up at Tenko's scared face. Now he looked even more like that bullied little boy who spent all his conscious time on this earth in hell.

He took his hand away. "It's nothing, nonsense." His voice was shaking and breaking as if you had caught him playing a prank.

"Is this your personal diary or something?" You tried to speak calmly, not to inflame emotions. "No, it was on the shelf when I got here."

"Have you read it?"

"Why would I read it? I already know my secrets." He sounded uncertain, still afraid.

"So, what is it about?"

"Mostly about parents and childhood."

"These aren't your secrets." He was clearly hiding something.

"Yes, they are." he pouted. You crossed your arms over your chest. 

"Yeah, sure. You told me them a long time ago."

Tomura hesitated, as if he wasn't sure what to say. "Well, I care about you. I can trust you..."

"Nuh uh. It's now that you can trust me. I was a stranger to you back then."

Tomura guiltily lowered his eyes and mumbled something under his breath. You decided not to give it much importance and asked. "Well, shall I read it?"

"No!" After a long silence, his voice literally rang in your ears.

"What? You said you'd already told me about it, so I can look at what I know." He was acting very suspicious. It seemed there's something more serious there, something you shouldn't know. "There's something you're not telling me, right?"

"You aren't supposed to see this."

"Why? Are you writing nasty things about me?" You raised an eyebrow in an almost comical manner.

"Well, almost... Listen, let's not pay attention to this." He picked up the notebook. You abruptly snatched it out of his hands and took a significant number of steps away to avoid returning the notebook to its owner.

"Please, don't read this." He begged, his voice was desperate, but you stood your ground. "You trust me. So there can be no secrets between us, right?"

He took a deep breath and gave up. "Okay, but you're not going to like it."

"I'll get over it."

Hi guys! So in my defense, I'll say that I was in an abusive relationship all the time so i wasn't really in a state to write. Also in an abusive friendship... and the setting in general, so yeah.. Sorry, I'll try to update the story more often! (Note to you all: don't date a person who's only purpose was to get in bed with you:))
