Voodoo Doll [BNHA]

Chapter Seventeen

After the holidays were over, Doll was sitting at her desk trying to think of what she should do for her third date with Hawks. He'd messaged her and said he'd be in the area soon but was a bit vague about it. She had a feeling something was wrong. They'd heard on the news recently that Best Jeanist, the former third ranked hero had gone missing, none of his sidekicks knew his whereabouts. Doll was worried a hero hunter was trying to target the big heroes. She was worried for Endeavor and Hawks.

"What are you doing? Shouldn't you be getting ready?" Burnin's voice snapped her out of her thoughts. "I thought you were going with Endeavor to pick up the interns?"

Doll looked to the older girl with the fierce gaze and fiery hair, "I am, I still have time..." She chewed on her lip and decided to ask the older girl for help, "Burnin, I'm worried Hawks is feeling kind of blue but I don't know what to do to cheer him up on our next date." She admitted quietly.

Burnin blushed as she misunderstood Doll's innocent question and seemed to think she was asking about something to cheer him up in the bedroom. She had no idea the eerie girl and Hawks were already so intimate in their relationship. "Why the hell are you asking me? Just dress up as something he likes."

"Like cosplay?" Doll asked curiously as she tried to think of what to dress up as.

"Whatever, I don't need to know your personal business." Burnin huffed blushing as she imagined Doll in some sexy gothic lingerie.

Doll tried to think about things Hawks liked. He really liked chicken, but would dressing up as a chicken really make him feel better? She looked online really quick to see if chicken cosplay even existed. She was delighted to see there were lots of options. She found a cute animated chicken onesie and rush ordered it so she could use it to surprise Hawks.

Endeavor stepped into the office holding a coat for Doll in his hand and held back a smile as he noticed every single desk in the office had a yarn doll displayed on it. Doll had made each and every one of them a yarn doll likeness of themselves. Everyone at the agency loved them so much they all displayed them proudly on their desks. His gaze fell on Doll sitting at her desk, she was lost in her phone. The brat said he'd be in town soon but didn't elaborate on how soon.

Doll glanced up and noticed her mentor. She tucked her phone away and scampered over to his side. They were dressed as civilians and Doll was a little anxious to be going outside without her hero costume and mask. She was wrapped head to toe in bandages and wearing a black Victorian gothic dress with a high lace collar.

Ever since she'd gotten hypothermia when she surprised Hawks, everyone at the agency had been keeping an eye on her and making sure she was dressed appropriately for the weather. She'd been getting randomly attacked by Burnin and stuffed into hoodies and wrapped up in scarves. It had been traumatizing at first but she'd grown accustomed to it. Endeavor held the coat out to her without a word and Doll accepted it with a shy smile.

"Th-thanks."

He gave her a brief nod, he was tense, as he usually was when Shoto was involved. Doll smiled as she slipped on her coat and prepared to follow her mentor out the door. Before she could get more than a step away, Burnin practically tackled her and nearly choked her with a warm fuzzy scarf.

"Take better care of yourself!" Burnin snarled as she roughly shoved some cute black mittens onto dolls bandaged hands.

Doll stumbled away from the aggressive girl, now appropriately bundled for the weather and offered her a smile, "thanks for always looking out for me, Burnin."
