His Black Winged Angel

Chapter 5

I had to send in my hero costume for repairs so I ended up using an older one. This one was grey and had a jacket. This didn't have any armor. I even had a visor and headphones like Keigo's, which was his idea, I might have to add them on my newer costume. While we were walking around Keigo looked over to me. "How's your leg holding up? Is it bothering you at all?"

"It just stings a little, the medicine you got me helps a lot, thanks," I gave him a little smile at the end. He does so much for me I don't know how to pay him back, I feel a little bad. "Also, if you're ready, I would like you to tell me about the dream you had yesterday."

"I-I don't think I'm ready....," My heart started racing and I looked at my feet. "That's okay, you can tell me whenever you want." We walked in silence for a little before he asked what I wanted to add onto my costume and gave some suggestions. "You should put the visor and headphones on the new design. Maybe a hood as well."

"I've thought about it was well. A hood would be nice. I would need to request the visor, headphones, and hood to be fire proof so nothing gets damaged. The hood will probably be an extension of the suit. Maybe I'll have an opening in the back of my suit to help with the wings. Then I'll have to get a jacket."

"Draw it out when you get to the agency," he laughed and pat my head as we kept walking down the street. We soon had a crowd of people around us. A little girl pulled on my jacket and held a backpack and permanent marker up to me.

"NightWing....may you please sign my backpack??" I smile at her and nod, grabbing onto the backpack and opening the marker.

"What's your name sweetheart?" She squeals before answering.

"My name is Hanae," a huge smile was on her face. It looked like her tiny little body could barely contain her excitement. "You're my favorite hero and I bet you can be the BEST....like NUMBER 1!!!"

"Well I don't know about that," I let off a small giggle as I start signing the bag. Suddenly, I could feel Keigo's hand on my shoulder. "You can do it, I believe in you. You have a great quirk and we're trained by me." A blush appeared on my face. When I finished I gave the bag and the marker back to Hanae. She squealed and ran to who I assumed is her mother.

We made our way to a restaurant and they gave us a private room. "You handled those fans pretty well. I'm proud of you." I blushed again and hid my face in my menu. "Thanks," I barely manage to squeak out. He laughs,"What do you want to eat?"

"Oh uh, yakisoba"

"I heard it's pretty good at this place. I might get the same thing." I put my menu down and there was a knock at the door. It slid open and a woman sat there.

"I have brought sake, water and napkins. Are you ready to order?" She put the sake, water and napkins on the table. Keigo smiled and ordered for the both of us. Once she left, Keigo poured himself some sake. I grabbed the water and started drinking.

"About what I said earlier. When the young girl said you could become number 1 hero. I meant it. You can become number one hero if you put your mind to it."

Another blush came onto my face. I gathered myself and let out a breath,"Being in the spotlight all the time isn't for me. I don't think I want to be the number 1 hero. I'll just let whatever happens happen. I'm not going to push for that spot like Endeavor or other heroes that have their mind set on getting there."

"Understandable but without a clear goal in mind to drive you to become a hero you won't really survive."

"We've had this conversation about what my goal is many times and it still hasn't changed. I want to help people around me and keep them safe. It's our job as heroes to protect them. I want them to feel safe with us around."

"I'm going to be moving into a penthouse a week or two after you leave. It's closer to the agency and it's bigger than the house I'm in now," he pours himself another glass of sake.

"Would you like to come see it? It would make sense since you will be living there as well."

"Sure, why not," I smiled at him. Once we finished eating and payed for the food he took me to a big building. We went inside and someone guided us to the penthouse.

The doors opened up and it looked to be two stories high. But then I realized on the second floor there was a staircase leading up. Quickly I went up it and opened the door at the top. We had an entire roof to ourselves. 

"Nice isn't it?" Keigo came up behind me.

"It's beautiful," I turned to look at him and there's a huge grin on my face.

"Again once you move in you can stay as long as you want. And if you ever need to you can come over."

"Thanks," looking over the edge I noticed that there was a balcony right underneath me with a pool. So I got on it and was about to jump onto the balcony when Keigo pulled me back roughly by my wings.

A sharp pain went through my back and I let out a scream as I felt myself fall into his arms. "What the fuck are you thinking kid?!"

"First of all, I have wings, so if I fell I could fly and if I did it on purpose my instincts would kick in and I would fly anyways. Second of all, there's a pool down there and I want to look at it."

"I know you have wings, that's why I pulled on them. Also we can go look at the pool without jumping off of buildings." I felt a little bad for scaring him but I held my composure for the meantime. He let me go and grabbed my hand as we went back downstairs. I followed behind him.

"We jump off of buildings all the time," the guide had seen what had happened on the roof and seemed a bit shaken up. I noticed that Keigo's feathers were ruffled as well and were slowly settling. "I'm sorry Keigo," I muttered.

"It's okay," he paused, "I just got a bit worried. I also probably shouldn't have pulled on your wings. I know how sensitive they can be."

We got to the sliding door of the balcony through the master bedroom, which took up most of the second floor. Keigo let go of my hand and we went to check it out. There was a very nice view and we could see his agency.

"I can't wait to see this place at night."

"That would be nice wouldn't it," I looked over at home and he was staring at the horizon while leaning on the railing.

"We should probably get going..." He nodded and we went back to his agency. I can stay for two more days until going back home for school. I'll enjoy this as much as I can. We drew out a new design for my hero costume.

"You should get it in a week or two, if they're quick about it maybe less." I nod and stretch my arms out in front of me. My wings stretch back and shake a little.

"Good stretch," I sigh.

"Seemed like it," his gaze softened and he looked concerned, "Are you okay from yesterday? Any pain? Anxiety-"

"I'm fine, like I said before. The medicine you got is working fine. I have a bit of bruising but that goes away. It was also kinda fun. I just let my body move without thinking. I think I like the adrenaline rush."

"That's good, I just don't want you getting hurt too badly."

"I was trained by you, you're a badass hero. I can handle myself in battle," I give him a soft smile.
