3. First real conversation

You couldn't believe what were you seeing. Hawks was offering you a sandwich that he made for you. What?! 'Did he really made it for me?! This all looked like some casual scene from some romance movie. Aghhh...this was really too much.' Too much for your heart and peace of mind. Slowly you approached him. He was still looking at you with those big cute eyes. 'Dammit!' you cursed in your head.

''Ummm...are you feeling all right?'' you asked him. You got closer so the only thing that was separating you two was the bar.

''Yeah, I'm alright...thanks to you. I didn't know you have such a good quirk.'' he said with a smile.

You took the plate with a sandwich that he was holding in his hands ''Yes. My quirk is regeneration. I can heal anyone and anything.''

There was a minute of silence. It was so awkward. You decided to break the silence.

''That wound...'', you looked at the ground then back at him, ''it was really bad. If you have been a little longer with that kind of injury, it could have been fatal.''

He looked at you. You could saw guilt forming on his face. Suddenly he slammed his hand on the bar. Surprised by his action, you jumped from the bar little far away. He looked like he was having some inner fight with himself. You wanted to ask him what was bothering him, but you thought that maybe he would get angry or annoyed because you were trying to stick your nose in his problems. So you didn't asked him anything.

''It was a villain...I couldn't stop him from hurting those people...it's all my fault..I was too weak...'' he said while tears were slipping down his face.

Your heart dropped by words that were coming out of his mouth. You took the courage to ask him, knowing that that was probably a bad idea.

''Do you want to share your thoughts with me? Only if you want. It's really bad if you can't tell anyone anything. That sadness and guilt will destroy you. I don't want to pick my nose in your personal space but...it's really hurting me to see you like this.''

Realising what you said you stopped. Maybe it was a bad idea. You were so nervous waiting for his reaction. He then raised his head from the bar and looked at you. He was looking at you with his eyes wide open. Now you were screwed. You shouldn't have said anything. He started walking around the bar and was going towards you. You were 100% sure that he will yell at you or something similar. You stood there still not eating your sandwich at the moment. In that moment you felt strong arms hugging you close to him. He was hugging you. You were stiff. Moments later you started to feel relaxed and you hugged him back. You didn't know what to ask him so you remain silent. You were just hugging each. You stood there like that for a minute or so. He decided to break the silence.

''Thank you...it...it will mean a lot to me if I can share with someone what's bothering me at this moment...'' he said while not breaking the hug. You smiled a little. Then you raised your head to look at him. Seeing his face this up close made you nervous. Your faces were only few inches apart. Your noses were almost touching. Your face was starting to heat up, also your heart was pounding loud in your chest. Why are you feeling like this right now! It's true that you had a really big crush on him, or better to say you were in love with him. You thought that was just a random crush that people have on celebrities and eventually it would fade away. But feeling like this, in a situation like this assured you that wouldn't happen. His arms were now around your waist. He kept you close to him, never breaking apart. What was he doing? He was just looking at you with his big now puffy eyes and a small smile. The smile looked like a tiny little smirk. Dammit! Why is he so attractive! You shouldn't think like that right now. You were so ashamed of yourself. The tension was unbearable. You started to feel frustrated. He was just looking at you and then he started to lean towards you. 'Did he realised it?! Is he using the fact that you feel sorry for him?!' You started to move your face away back from his but he stopped you by putting his hand on the back of your head. Other hand was still around your waist. He leaned little further so you were now only millimeters away from each others lips. He was starting to close his eyes, and then you had to react.
