Denial (Dabi X Shigaraki)

Chapter 1 - Him..

Shigaraki's POV
I had organized that Toga and Dabi would live in our hideout. Separately of course, I respected their privacy. It had been just about a week since they joined us and everyone was getting along decently. Dabi found Toga annoying but I understood that she was rather... excitable? One day around noon I had headed to have a shower, I knocked and no one answered so I walked in, I stopped in my tracks when I nearly bumped into a half naked Dabi. I felt my face flush, he wore only his boxers. "I-I'm so sorry!". I quickly turned and closed the door behind me, I felt my face, with my half gloved hand. I was warm. Maybe I was sick, that had to be it. I headed to my room to clear my head, I remembered his exposed skin. The way the dark purple contracted his skin tone. I shook my head. Why was I acting like this, we only work together and, and well he's a guy... I'm not into guys right...?
(The image that Shigarki is imagining above)

But I had to admit, I was jealous of how amazing he looked, I couldn't even dream to compare.

Dabi's POV
I had just finished my shower and was a little preoccupied with drying my hair to hear the knock, that was until the door swung open and there stood Shigaraki. I felt myself suddenly feel embarrassed but I couldn't say anything. He quickly left mumbling his apology. I wasn't mad of course, it was just an accident, I knew he hadn't meant to walk in on me. I finished getting dressed and ruffled my hair, I never really styled it, it did it's thing. I walked out of the bathroom, my guess was that he had gone back to his room so I knocked on his door. He opened it, he was rather pale and looked awkward "y-yes Dabi?" I heard him mutter. "I'm done with the bathroom. You might want to get in there before Toga does, you know how long she can take." I chuckled and placed a hand on his shoulder "and don't worry about it I'm not upset" I turned and walked away, heading to the counter to get a drink, in all honesty the way he was embarrassed was kind of cute. But I knew he wouldn't be interested so I kept my feelings hidden away deep down.

Toga's POV
I had my shower and did my makeup like normal, the guys hadn't left me much hot water which was frustrating but there was nothing I could do about it. Shigaraki was rather quiet today, I noticed every time Dabi would talk to him he would get flustered and look away. If I didn't know any better I would say he's crushing, but I didn't think he was that type of person. I sat down next to Dabi, playfully grabbing ahold of his arm. "What did you do to Shiggy? He is off his game today." I felt Dabi shrug and I heard a frustrated groan from Shigaraki. "How many times have I told you not to call me that? In this week alone?" I giggled and sat up, looking at him from a couple stools over. "If I remember correctly 37 and still counting!" I laughed, I loved to see him frustrated with me. "You actually are counting, this is a game to you isn't it?" He said with a sigh. I laugh and stood up from the stool, I walked closer. "Everything's a game to me Shiggy. 38.." I whispered into his ear before running off as he throws off his protective glove. I dashed to my room and locked myself in, from the other side I hear a huff. "Your lucky I don't want to buy a new door, other wise that wouldn't stop me!" He said and I heard his footsteps trailing away, I burst out into laughter.

Shigaraki's POV
I was starting to understand why Dabi thought Toga was annoying, he wasn't lying, she really was. She had this way to get on my nerves, she knew I hated that nickname, it made my blood boil. I paced around the room, Dabi watched from where he sat, suddenly I felt his hand on my arm and he pulled me to the stool next to him. "Sit down before you wear a hole through the floorboards" Dabi said in a soft but serious tone, I could tell he wasn't about to let me get back up to pace again. I awkwardly fiddled with my hands, my hair in front of my eyes. I heard the stool next to me squeak as Dabi turned himself to face me. Everyone else in the building had either gone out for supplies or was in their rooms, so I felt twice as awkward being alone with him. "You can't let her frustrate you so much. I don't like to see you mad" I felt one of his hands reach up to my face, moving the few strands of hair from my eyes. I felt my face warm up as his piercing eyes looked into mine. "Shigaraki.." Dabi started, his voice soft like silk. "Yes, Dabi.." I nervously played with my fingers. "Could I.. kiss you.. Just to test something!" Dabi said softly before I noticed his face turn red as he finished his sentence excitedly. I blush heavily and look back into his beautiful eyes. "Yeah" I watched as he slowly lowered his head to mine and I closed my eyes.
