Fuyumi stared at him on the other side of the door in shock. She looked at his hand and saw a small bundle of papers.

"Fuyumi?"

"T-Tokoyami?"

"Yeah it's me. How are you?"

"I-I'm good! S-Sorry for being so awkward, this is just very unexpected," Fuyumi rubs the back of her neck, feelings slightly overwhelmed by the encounter. "I don't want to sound rude, by what are you doing here? It's late, and getting dark."

"It's fine. I came by to drop off some files for Endeavor, is he home?"

Fuyumi had heard about Tokoyami through Shoto during his first year at UA. But when Hawks took him under his wing, (literally and figuratively) she was able to meet him. Fuyumi would often tell Hawks off for making Tokoyami do jobs that had no relation to hero work. He'd lost count of how many times Hawks would shoot him a text to bring him lunch, hand reports in for him, one time he even asked Tokoyami to do grocery shopping for him. But there were times when it was hard for Fuyumi to scold him. When he was too busy or away on missions, he'd get Tokoyami to deliver flowers to Fuyumi while she was at work, on days where Hawks couldn't fly her to work, he'd tell Tokoyami to watch over her while she took the bus, drop boba to her house when she was grading papers and more. There were times where Hawks would go away on missions that lasted longer than a fortnight, those missions forbade him from having contact with anyone that wasn't apart of the Commission. Before he'd leave he'd instruct Tokoyami to keep checking in on her, but to also go to her everyday and remind her that he loves her.

"Fuyumi...?" Tokoyami's voice brought her back to reality and out of head, she had been spending way too much time in there lately.

"Ah! S-Sorry Tokoyami, what did you say?"

"It's okay, I just wanted to know if Endeavor is home, I've got some files for him to look over. They were supposed to be delivered by Haw-" Tokoyami stops, realising who he was about to bring up. "S-Sorry, I shouldn't mention him, forgive me."

"Don't apologise, it's fine. Um, my father isn't home right now but I can take it and give it to him when he gets home?"

"Are you sure? I can drop by his agency and give it to him then, it's on my way hom-" A voice interrupts their conversation, causing Fuyumi to break into a cold sweat.

"Mama! You take so long I'm coming to get my milk!" Fuyumis mouth dries up, making it hard for her to reply. Her body becomes so stiff, that by the time she tries to turn around to send Chi-chi back to the room, she's already started running towards her.

"Mama, why you at the door?"

"B-Baby, please go back to the room."

"But my milk, mama."

"Chiasa, go to the room. Now." Fuyumi only ever uses Chi-chi's full name when she's disciplining her. Chi-chi is usually aware of this. But Chi-chi is also a two year old that is capable of tantrums, and has been waiting for her milk for over ten minutes. Chi-chi ignores her mothers firm tone and storms over to the door, to see who's keeping her mum from making her long awaited drink. She's ready to give them a piece of her mind until she sees Tokoyami, her anger fades away instantly and a wild smile breaks out on her face.

"Oi! You a bird? I'm a bird too!" Chi-chi turns her body to the side and points her thumb towards her red and white ombre wings. "See?!" Tokoyami stares at her in shock and in awe. Her wild golden hair matched her eyes. He looks back and forth between Chi-chi and Fuyumi, trying to get an understanding of what Fuyumi's relationship is to the girl. The more she kept raving on about her wings, he couldn't but be taken back by her assertive personality, she listed off things she could do with them while being so serious yet so playful. It had reminded him so much of...

"Hawks," he breathes.

(Lol did y'all think Hawks was gonna be at the door? 🤪 lol I'll try and post more on the weekend! Take care of yourselves & be safe ❤️)
