(+18) Trust: Part 3 (Dabi)

+18 chapter! Don't want it, skip it! But lets be real, you know you guys want it! XD

I laid in bed, and hugged a pillow. Even though I didn't try to, or even want to, there was tears flowing out of my eyes.

"I'm back." I heard Dabi say, and he came around the bed with a bag in hand. "I got your favorite." He said and held up a candy bar, but when he saw me he sat down next to me and moved my hair away from my face. "Mouse, what's wrong?"

"Nothing." I said and sniffed. "I think my body is just sad."

"That's probably cause you haven't been eating." He said. "I know you're not feeling yourself, but you need to start eating."

"I just haven't been very hungry." I told him, and it was true.

In the past two months I hadn't been eating much. But I had managed to pull myself out of my room for a little bit every day and hang out with everyone for a while. Until it felt like I ran out of energy, then I went back to my room to recharge.

"Will you try to eat more today?" Dabi asked. Along with me being out of it, Dabi's been helping me. Staying with me when I had nightmares. Convincing me to eat, when I didn't want food.

"What do I get in return?" I asked him back.

"How about . . . . ?" He started thinking, and smiled. "A back massage?"

"Mmmm." I hummed and thought about it. "Deal." I told him and we shook on it.

"Come on we got pizza." He said grabbing me and threw me over his shoulder.

"Dabi, I can walk." I laughed and he carried me out into the living room. He plopped me down in a big comfy chair and I laid in it sideways. Toga handed me a plate of pizza with two slices of pizza and a bread stick.

"All of it." Dabi told me, and Twice got a movie ready.

"Dabi, I didn't even eat two slices before I lost my appetite." I whined.

"Fine, at least a whole slice and the bread stick." He told me and started eating. The movie started, and it turns out Twice had picked a comedy.

All the way until the middle of the movie, I was laughing and eating, and for once feeling myself. But then at some point I lost any and all social energy. I snuggled down in the chair, and pretended to have fallen asleep, while I stared at the back of the chair.

When the movie was finally over, I closed my eyes and Dabi shook me to "wake me up". I looked up at him.

"What happened?" I asked.

"You, fell asleep." He said. I could tell he knew I was faking it by his tone. "What is this?" He asked and showed me my plate.

"What?" I asked, and he pointed to the crust of the slice I ate. "I ate the equivalent of a slice. I didn't want crust." I told him, and it was true. I had ate a couple more bites into the other slice to make up for the crust loss.

"Oh stop messing with her Dabi." Twice said and took the rest of my pizza and took a bite. "She did good." He ruffled my hair with his other hand and walked away.

"Yeah." I joked at Dabi and stuck my tongue out him.

"Alright child." He said and threw me over his shoulder, once again.

"I can walk!" I yelled at him, but in a way I was happy he was carrying me. He walked into my room and threw me on the bed. "Massage?" I asked and rolled onto my stomach. I heard him laugh a little before he got on the bed.
