The Guardian Villain ( Shigaraki x Reader)

My Caretaker

    After Lunch Rush left I waited for the usual knocking. It never came. I waited for maybe a surprise knock on the window like he did that one day. Didn't happen. By one, when my alarm went off I had forgotten that he didn't show up. So when I went to ask if he was ready I was filled with disappointment.

    " Are you going to leave after you deal with him?" I asked. I don't want him to leave. He's one of the only people I have. 

    " Now why would you think that. You will still need a caretaker when this is all over." When he said that I immediately was filled with relief.

    " Well then where are you?" Tears started to run down my face. I couldn't help it. My body was filled with sorrow. I don't care if he was a villain. He was my villain. My guardian villain.

    My side hurts everytime a sob escapes my mouth but I can't help it. Over this last week I had gotten used to the quiet caretaker who would watch whatever I turned on. I had gotten used to him bringing me soup that was cold and faking enjoyment when I ate it. I had gotten used to watching how hard he focused when he would go to wrap the bandages around me so he wouldn't hurt me.

    " I don't think I would accept another caretaker at this point."

     I meant every word in that sentence. I didn't realize how much I meant it until now. Now I feel useless. I can't even fix my own bandages and the one person I trust to fix them isn't even here.

    " Why did you leave me Shigiraki?" I asked to the nothingness in my room. The nothingness responded.

     " I only got heald up for a few hours." I jumped and winced in pain. When did he get here? " Come on let's fix those bandages." When he got beside me I threw my arms around his neck. He tensed up, obviously not used to being hugged.

     " I thought you had left me for good. I thought you had lied to me." I said through the shakes in my voice from my breakdown from a minute ago.

    " Why are you hugging me?" He asked. I slowly let go and apologized.

    " Sorry. I just couldn't help myself. My body moved without thinking." I said, embarrassed with myself. Blush covered my cheeks but you wouldn't be able to tell. My face was already stained red from the crying.

    " No need to be embarrassed. I'm just surprised you trust me enough to allow me near you. You obviously heard the fight last night or you wouldn't have called Giri. Thanks for that by the way." I tied up my shirt so he could access the wound. After all that's the reason he's here.

    " You're welcome." I say just before I start to hiccup. Great. This is why I hate crying.

    Through this whole process he doesn't mention how I was crying once. In fact he doesn't say anything. He just goes about his work as if nothing happened. There was no fight, there was no tears, there was no lies uncovered. It's just me and my caretaker.
