Traitorous Love

Chapter 5- Night Patrol Part 1

After a day of nurses walking in and out checking your bandages, talking to Hawks, and assuring everyone you're feeling fine you finally get to leave.

You and Hawks decide to meet again at 9:00pm when night patrol starts so you go back to your hotel room. On the nightstand, there was ... a feather on a necklace and a note.

(Y/n) keep this feather, it's just a way for me to know where you are and an easy way to contact each other- don't worry I promise not to eavesdrop on your convos. Love you baby bird- Hawks

Shaking your head you leave the feather on your nightstand and go to take a shower. Turning it on you let the hot water run while you take off your clothes and letting down your hair. Stepping into your shower the warm water felt good and refreshing. You washed your hair with shampoo and conditioner before getting out. Drying yourself off you put on your hero costume. It was just a pair of breathable leggings, resistant to rips, and a thin black hoodie to match. You fastened your weapons belt around your waist, filling it with your blades. 

So I wanted to clear something up. (y/n) does have a powerful quirk, but prefers to use blades especially when fighting because her quirk is better for long-distance fighting. 

 You study the feather, taking it in your hand, why would he want to "contact" each other if there is this thing called phones? With that thought, you leave the feather on the nightstand.

Checking the time you realize it's almost nine, so you walk to Hawks Agency. 

This time, taking the front entrance, you noticed how simple and modern it is, rather than Hawks flashy ways. You take the elevator to Hawks' office. Inside you hear him talking with so much fury in his voice you pause at the door to listen. 

"-You have no idea how hard it is! I can't just drop everything to do what you want!" He screamed out bitterly. There was a long pause, "No, you don't understand, I don't have time to do all these small errands, and-" Hawks stopped talking abruptly and looked at the door. Quickly, you stepped away from the crack, hoping he didn't see you. "Look, I have to go," he quietly said putting a hand through his hair, "yes, yes it's still the same," 

He took a deep breath, "Baby bird," he sung out, "It's rude to spy on people,". The door you were leaning on opened and you were falling, but never hit the floor. Instead, you felt two hands on your waist, "So did you think I couldn't tell if someone was listening to me?" he asked you getting really close to your face. 

You blushed a little, "No, I just didn't want to barge in while your talking. See some people have this thing called manners where they don't break into people's hotel rooms to scare them or to give them feathers," you say staring into his eyes with no question. The blush wiped from your face. 

"Ok, I see your point he grumbled," taking his hands off. You almost reached out wanting them back there, it felt so good and so right. 

Hawks was wearing his hero costume. His wings were furiously shaking, and you noticed his hands were as well, "Are you ok?" walking toward his desk where he was.

"I'm fine," he said. 

You sat there with him in silence, but not the comfortable silence that was there that morning, but rather, an awkward silence. You weren't sure what was going on in his head. But whatever it was, was stressing him out. 

-Time skip: 30 minutes later-

After sitting there in silence for five minutes, you excused yourself to go to the gym you noticed when you had gotten there on Day 1. When you traveled through the ventilation system you saw an amazing gym. People were sparring, with and without quirks, treadmills, tracks, and basically a full gym.
