Dabi's POV

"I think I already know how careful I have to be." I mumbled and shut the door after me. I started walking away from the house.

"Tch." I kicked a small rock on the ground. There's something wrong with her. She's planning something, but what?

"Hey! You seem cool, wanna have a smoke?" A man said as he held out a cigarette. I took it. "Thanks for the cigarette, idiot." I said as I used my quirk on them.

And after a shower of screams, they were all burned up on the ground. The people looked at me. "That's Dabi!" Someone shouted. I sighed and ran away before anyone noticed.

I lit the cigarette and pulled my mask down before putting the cigarette in my mouth.

It felt good to smoke again. I know I told Keigo I would stop, and I had stopped. For a few days. To be fair, though, I didn't promise him. I only told him I'd stop.

When I was done smoking, I made my way back to the base. Not knowing that I had been gone for longer than I expected.

I opened the door and Keigo immediately caught my attention. He was leaned on against the wall, his eyes closed. "Keigo?" I said.

He opened his eyes and looked at me. "Oh, you're finally back." He said as he rubbed his eyes. "What time is it?" I asked. "01:30 Am. Everyone else went to bed an hour ago or so, maybe more." Keigo explained.

"Then why didn't you? You're tired, I can see it." I said. Keigo sighed. "I'm not-" "Don't continue that sentence, you're tired and you know it." I said. "Yeah, alright. Just give me a hug." Keigo said and hugged me right after he said it.

"Why? Did something happen?" I asked, worried. "Can't your boyfriend hug you without making you worried? I'm fine." Keigo said. Suddenly, he stepped back and looked at me, his confusion showing on his face.

"Did you smoke?" He asked. Shit, now I'm in trouble.. "No, why? I already told you I'd stop smoking a few days ago." I said, obviously the first part was a lie, but I hoped that Keigo wouldn't notice that it was.

"Really? Then why does your breath smell like it?" Keigo asked. "What do you mean? You're probably just imagining things-"

"Touya. I'm not arguing with you more, alright? Tell me the truth, or I'll go back to my apartment." Keigo threatened.

He knew that I didn't want him to leave the base, ofcourse he did. He was my boyfriend, he'd know this. But using it as a threat? Yeah, no. He for sure knows my weaknesses.

"Fine. I did. Happy?" I said. "Yeah, now let's go, you need to shower and I'll wait for you, then we'll sleep." Keigo said. "No, you'll sleep, not wait for me." I said.

"No, I will wait." Keigo said, I knew he wasn't going to change his mind by now. "Then we'll just get right to bed, hm?" I asked. Keigo smiled. "Okay," He said.

We climbed into the bed and I buried my face in Keigo's neck. "I love you, Keigo." I could sense Keigo's smile appearing on his face. "I love you too, Touya." He said.

Izuku's POV

Me, Sho and Uraraka got back and I kinda hurried to my room. As soon as I closed the door after me I let out a relieved sigh.

It had been two days since I had that talk with Hawks. Just yesterday she had asked me and Sho to go on a walk with her, we agreed.

But the whole time we were walking, Uraraka seemed.. Off. She kept constantly looking around as if she was searching for something.

She didn't try to do anything though, so that was good. I didn't really expect her to do anything, either. But with what Hawks told me two days ago, I felt like I had to keep an eye on her whenever she wanted us to do anything with her.
