...
It was 11 pm, and I couldn't sleep, so why not go to one of my favorite places— the roof. Today was rough, and honestly I could cry just about anytime right now. I needed a break, a break from everything.
Which led me to where I was now, standing at the edge looking down. To others, it might seem that I was going to commit suicide, but I'm not going to. Not until the letter from UA comes in telling me if I made it or not. I came up here to be away from everything. The roof is my safe place, I feel like I can freely cry or scream and no one will hear me.
I sat down at the edge, with my feet hanging over. All I could think about was the exams from today. Did I get enough points? Would they even except me? It's a bit overwhelming to think about all the possibilities. If I didn't make it into UA, then was the struggle all my life pointless?
It was in that moment that I decided that I was going to have some fun. The fun was going to a bar. It certainly wasn't my first time going, I even have a fake id for this reason. I like to think that when life gets too much, you have to let go a little.
I crawled down the fire escape back to my floor and entered through the window leading to my room. I wanted to feel pretty tonight. I am going to a nice bar, so I need to look good.
Opening up my closet, I saw the perfect dress (which I actually got for these types of things). It took me a while to save up enough money, but it was so worth it. I put on the burgundy dress, pairing it with some black heels. I took my hair and twisted it up into a bun. I still had bandages wrapped around my arms, but I didn't really care how it looked.
I went back out to the fire escape and climbed all the way down to the street. From there, I walked to the bar, waiting to have some fun.

"Hey. Can I get a glass of wine?" I asked, surveying my surroundings. There's some cute people here tonight.
The bartender looked at me weirdly, probably cause I am only a teenager, but he doesn't need to know that. "Can I see some form of ID, miss?"
I pulled my fake from my black purse and handed it to the man. When he looked at it he narrowed his eyes a bit but he still gave me a drink.
I took my drink and sat down next to a guy with black hair, and burn scars. Which I found very hot, and he took an interest in me as well.
"Sweetheart, don't you look nice?" He said after taking a sip from a glass filled with amber liquid. AND OH MY GOD, the nickname, it makes me feel something. Maybe giddiness?
I looked at his blue eyes, "Thank you. What is your name?"
"Dabi. And yours?"
"Mira Kiritani, but please call me Mira."
After that, we talked and talked. He bought me some drinks, so by the end I was definitely tipsy, maybe even a bit drunk. We even exchanged numbers. I didn't feel like going home to a shit mom, so I asked if I could stay the night at his place, to which Dabi said yes.
Dabi was unlocking his apartment door while I was leaning against the wall. He didn't live in the best place, but to be fair neither did I. When he started leading me in, I saw how little he had.
His apartment had a bedroom, a small bathroom, and a living room connected to the kitchen. We sat down on his sofa, facing a tv and a small coffee table that Dabi put his feet up on. I took off my heels and let me feet join his on the table.
"So tell me about those wrapped arms of yours?" He asked while taking my hands in his.
"Um. I cut myself?" I was trying to make it sound like an accident, but Dabi saw right through the lie.
"Why would you do that to yourself?" By now he was rubbing circles on my hands with his thumbs.
I laughed a little bit at that, my answer was going to sound so stupid. "because I like the pain." He looked at me in understanding. That was the end of that conversation. Trying to lead away the conversation I asked, "What do you do for a living?"
"I'm a villain." I looked at him in disbelief, that couldn't be true I thought to myself. "No, really I am one. And what does a pretty girl like you do?"
"I just applied to the hero course at UA. I don't know why I did it, I don't even like heros. When have they ever saved me?"
"Haha. To that we can both agree," Dabi said taking a cigarette off the table and lighting it with his finger. He took a nice long drag, then passed it to me. I try to not smoke, but I do if someone offers me a cig.
When he leaned in to grab the cigarette, he took me into his lap, and then set the cig on the table. "Hey princess," he said getting close to my lips, "I really like spending time with you."
I closed the gap between us, kissing him hard. I wanted him so bad, and I felt like I could never get enough. The night went on with us making out and eventually he picked me up by the hips bringing me to his bed. He threw my body onto the bed, then he came as well. Damn, he is so fucking hot. It felt like forever while we were kissing each other. Sometime during the night we fell asleep together in his bed.
