[Hawks] Keigo Takami

Heated Beginnings 

Synopsis: Was there an ulterior motive to Hawks' arrival at Endeavor's agency? perhaps... Unable to keep his composure at the sight of someone who already has his heart but doesn't know it yet, he wonders if he could over come the one thing stopping him, her father... 

. . . 

'Interning at your fathers?'

                    Perplexed, a gentle but warm-welcoming smile softly perks on your flushed cheeks; one that drives him made. Smoothly, his eyes dip down to your partially exposed bra peeking through from your blouse not being fully buttoned up as you bent down, your fingers flicking through the pages of the stacked paper pile in front of you. You tucks a strand of hair behind your ear as you stand up, grinning ear to ear at the overly confident second ranked pro-hero.

                    Matching your smile, his head tilts softly as pro-hero Hawks stares at the one thing he desires and simultaneously the one thing he couldn't have. You were the only one he questioned and criticised his appearance; he questioned if his hair looked good, if he had anything in his teeth and above all if he smelt good.

'Yeah.' you pause, 'A lil' summer internship here and there to help during the busy season you know?'

'Does he pay you?'

                    Your fingers slid out from the hefty stack of paperworks, he could tell she found what he had asked amusing, by the raised eyebrows and the smug look on your face. You shake your head, somewhat shocked, Hawks' smile at the brillant attempt to see your more than he usually does.

'You know... if you interned under me I'd pay you in full and take you out to lunch daily.'

                    Amber cheeks you couldn't help but show sway at his obviously flirtatious gesture even apparent in your eyes.

'Hawks, I'd love to but... you and I can both imagine how well that would go over with Endeavor. I wouldn't know who he'd kill first...'

                    You giggled to yourself, however found yourself knowing that what you had just joked about would be your reality if you dared to work for the competition especially for Hawks, your father's apparent allied enemy. You step away from the counter and stand in front of him, he adjusts his posture, making sure his muscles flexed as he stood tall.

'The offer will still stan-'

'What offer?!' irritated, his voice boomed against the echoing four walls of the main entrance to Endeavor's agency,

                    Biting the inner side of your cheek, your eyes split from Hawks to the daunting figure of your father, Endeavor standing at your side. Awkwardly smiling as if nothing happened, you stare smiling at Endeavor as if trying to skip over the topic knowing he would blow his casket over it. In contrast, Hawks' face contorts in annoyance that his little flirting was cut short by his future father-in-law.

                     Softly underneath your breath you reassure both you and your father that nothing happened. Just as the words slipped out of your mouth, Hawks had another idea.

'-A date.' proud of his actions he pauses for dramatic effect,

'YOU WHAT?!' Endeavor snarls viciously,

'I offered to pay the bill but your lovely daughter insisted we split.' Hawks says whimsically,

                      Concerned you study the face of your father, his eye twitches steadily in aggravation and disbelief. Unable to fathom what had come out of the lips of his new enemy as you braced yourself for him to explode any minute now. Sidekicks begin to surround the little scene caused by Hawks, their words to cool Endeavor down fall short and as he turns on his heels stopping for a minute. His head slowly turns to you and he was not above pulling the fatherly disappointment card, especially when he felt betrayed by his own daughter.

'We will speak later.' he grumbles quietly to you, his hand firmly gripping Hawks' shoulder dragging him to the abyss of the escalator with no return,

                    In disbelief you shook your head grinning from ear to ear, you refused to believe what had just happened and after the warmth of your cheeks had settled down you returned back to your assigned work unable to get rid of the smile that kept on your face.

. . .

                    The tips of his wings scorched and his cheeks singed, though at the first sight of you he couldn't help but find himself smirking. You catch a small glimpse of him from the corner of your eyes, one that stops you in your tracks and a smug smile appears on your lips at his braving of challenging the so-called beast. Files tossed aside mindlessly, noticing your father's attention had slipped away from the little situation; it was your best shot not to get caught.

                    You quickly dart down numbers on a flimsy sticky note. Peeling it off, you awkwardly jogs across the entrance of the agency, your actions being noticed by Hawks who finds himself obsessing over your small rebellion against your own father. You fold the sticky note nervously, slipping it sneakily into his pocket. Your action goes unnoticed for the most part but Endeavor finds himself staring at his daughter in close proximity to the man he would rather die than see you with.

                      Positioning himself between his daughter and the man trying to steal his daughter away from him. He glares down his nose at Hawks, who smiles as the note you had just given him is twirled slowly within his fingertips without Endeavor knowing.

'If it looks like you roughhoused Mr Hawks- which you did- I wouldn't want that affecting your public image dad.' quick-witted you softly smile, obviously playing the "dad" card to get extra brownie points with him,

'Fine.' Endeavor grumbles walking away expecting you to follow,

                     You begin to follow suit, our head soft swivels over your shoulder catching his gaze momentarily. Your hand rises slowly up towards the side of your face, motioning him to call you in which he nods, smiling happily as he is escorted out of the agency by a large security team.

                     He shoots back a look, watching his future date return to her overly-protective father's side, pulling out your small act of rebellion as he holds your phone number in his balled hand, excited that he got exactly what he wanted out of this, a little date with Endeavor's younger daughter.
