Control (Overhaul X Reader)

Chapter 11

Instead of taking you home, Chrono brought you to the Shie Hassaikai's hideout and led you to a room where you had to stay for the night, instructing you not to leave until Overhaul returned. He gave you some relief cream for the burn on your cheek. 

The room was big and sparse but that was nothing to complain about. After Chrono left you, you took a bath to get rid of the blood and the stench of tonight's events. You dried your hair and threw yourself on the bed, feeling exhausted, but sleep did not come.

Several hours later, you heard a knock on the door and Overhaul himself entered. He looked very tidy, as if he didn't lay a hand on anybody just a few hours ago.

"(Y/n), how are you feeling?"

"I feel fine. Is everything alright?" You got up from the bed and approached him.

"Yes..." He glanced at the burn on your cheek and irritation creeped up his expression once again, although not directed at you. "We're chasing down the last few remaining members and those who escaped. They are lower than the dirt and filth has to be cleaned up."

"I see.." You cleared your throat. "So, will you be taking me to work tomorrow?"

"You are not leaving this place. Not until the Tandeki Ikka has been completely eradicated. It is not safe for you to go out yet."

"But people will notice my absence..."

"Call in sick for the next few days. I'll have medical certificates arranged for you. We've also recovered your car and are having it repaired." 

"O-oh, I see. Well, thank you very much for your help." 

"Who is your physician?"

You were surprised by this question and answered him, as you presumed he would probably have your doctor's signature faked for the certificate.

"Chrono, have someone pick up her medical records." He ordered Chrono, who was standing just outside the door.

"Yes, boss."

"Wait, what do you need my medical records for?"

"It was through my negligence that you have gotten hurt today, so the least I can do to make up for my mistake is to assess your physical condition. It would be much easier for me to check on your health if I had some background on it."

"So, you also want to be employed as my doctor now?" You joked, a small chuckle escaping you.

"Yes, but since you're already financially supporting the Shie Hassaikai, I will be doing it for free. In fact, you would be much safer that way. You wouldn't have to worry about your enemies trying to bribe your doctor to find any sensitive information about your health, if there are any. Except for dentistry and gynecology, I can take care all of your medical needs including surgery, if you need one, and everything will be kept secret. Except for plastic surgery but I highly doubt one would be necessary in your case."

You stared at him, completely baffled and speechless. He was seriously offering to be your  doctor now? You were just joking earlier! Well, he certainly had every advantage with his quirk but you had your doubts that this would be a good idea...

"I... I'm not quite sure about that..."

"You should consider this since it is the safest option for you. But for now..." His golden eyes scanned your body. "I need to have you checked. When we retrieved your car, we found out they have used gas to capture you. I need to find out if they have also drugged you or worse..."

"I'm a little exhausted, but other than that I'm sure I'm fine-"

"I insist." His golden eyes bore into you, his expression making it clear that refusal was not an option.
