(Himiko's Point of View)

I smiled as I texted Amethyst. She was gone for her internship at the moment.
Amy: Yeah, I doubt he's gonna do any hero work for a while

"Who you texting?" Shigaraki asked.
"My girlfriend." I said confidently.
"That glitch girl, huh? Maybe we should pay her a little... visit... soon."

Me: Ugh, hand guy just looked at my phone and is teasing me
Me: I'm gonna kill him
Amy: No
Amy: Don't kill
Me: Stab?
Amy: No!
Me: You're no fun
Amy: No, I'm just a hero

We texted for a while longer, as Shigaraki talked to Kirogiri about something.
"Toga, get your villain costume on. We need to go." Kirogiri told me.
"Okay." I texted Amy, telling her I needed to leave, then I went and got my villain costume on.

"So, where're we going?" I asked Shigaraki as I played with one of my knives.
"We're gonna get your little girlfriend to join the league." He explained to me.
"She's a hero though." I reminded him as we walked to what I presumed was Amy's house.
"Not for long."

"Dibs her room~." I said the the group as I happily walked into Amy's room. The room was quite organized. As I looked around, a dog walked towards me and nudged it's face into my legs.
"Aw, you must be Spencer." I said to the dog and pet him. Suddenly I heard an unfamiliar muffled scream from the other room.
"What the-." I ran into the other room to see the excitement. But instead I was greeted with Amy's dad slowly disintegrating from Shigaraki's quirk.

I threw a knife at Shigaraki and it stuck in his arm. He stumbled back and grabbed it in pain.
"This was never part of the plan~." I smiled.
"What's so bad about killing him? Your girlfriend might join us if we threaten her. Don't you want her to join us?" Kirogiri asked calmly as he gassed Amy's dad to sleep with his quirk.
"Silly you, she'll never join. Now stop harming him or I'll kill you."

"You little brat! You're ruining my plan! You normally would love this opportunity, what happened!?" Shigaraki yelled at me. My sadistic smile turned into a frown.
"It's for Amy's sake." I replied to Shigaraki.
"Ugh, that girl's fucked you up. Let's go, leave him there. He'll probably die in a few minutes anyways." Kirogiri made a portal and him and Shigaraki left. I stayed behind. When I walked back into Amy's room I saw one of them had written something on her wall before leaving. I left it.

No matter how much I didn't like it, I tried to help Amy's dad. What I did didn't work a lot, but it kept him alive for the week. I kept going back to feed the dog, and try to help Amy's dad. There was no way in hell I wanted her to be sad.

Even after I knew Amy had gotten help and took the dog, I couldn't help but feel guilty for once in my life. So I kept going back and I even slept a few nights in her bed. There were a few pictures of her in a photo album. I took them out and admired them, wishing I wasn't so messed up, so maybe... just maybe.... we could be together without problems. Even then, those thoughts changed faster than ever. I wasn't going to change for some girl. Even though I loved her more than I loved myself. Plus she loves me for who I am... right?

I played with a knife and crumpled up the pictures of her. The guilt lingered. There was no end to it. She found me a few days later and when I tried to explain, she ran. The guilt just grew, knowing what the league was about to do in the next while.

As I finished explaining myself and what really had happened, leaving out the part about what's soon to happen, Amy pulled me into a hug. I hugged her back.
"I'm so sorry. I should've listened to you, I should have trusted you. I was just so scared and felt so alone because of what happened to... him." Amy spoke as I felt her tears land on my shoulder.
"It's okay." I tried to comfort her.

I pulled back from the hug and pressed my lips against hers. I had missed this feeling. When I pulled away, I wiped the tears off her face and admired her.
"H-Himi. Can I ask how you got here?" Amy asked me. I smiled and got up.
"I have to go now." I told her, avoiding the question.
"But-" I kissed her one more time then started to walk away.
"Wait! Himiko! Can you answer my question!? Or at least stay a little longer... I missed you." She asked. I stoped walking and turned around.
"Fine."

I sat back down beside her and played with her hair. My hand touched her neck as I did so. I heard her snap her fingers.
"Why'd you snap your fingers Amy~?" I asked curiously.
"Wait- how aren't you stopped?" She asked and snapped her fingers continuously. I just kept playing with her hair. "That tickles." She told me. I pulled my hand away.

"Wait, why did you just freeze now and not then?" She asked.
"I just stopped playing with your hair...?" I was confused.
"Wait, play with it again."
"Okay." I grabbed some of her hair and tugged it.
"It worked that time, you 'paused'... maybe put your hand up to my neck again."
"Alright."

I sat on her lap and wrapped my hands around her neck with a smile. Amy shivered and snapped her fingers.
"Direct skin contact! That's what it is!" She said excitedly and snapped her fingers again.
"What, do you like when my hands are wrapped around your fragile neck~?" I teased her.
"What?! N-No... I meant my quirk, you can 'pause' at the same time as me if there's direct skin to skin contact."
"Oh."

I heard her phone buzz.
"Crap, I gotta go. I'm supposed to be at the camp right now." She told me. I nodded. We both got up and went our separate ways.
