13: i'll catch you if you fall

"So what, we'll just tell them that Hawks is a dirty hero? And they'll just accept it?" Y/N raised a brow at Dabi and crossed her arms over her chest. "That seems too easy."

"Oh no, sweetheart, Hawks will have to get his hands dirty. Didn't he tell you?" Dabi said flippantly. "Torture some people, steal some things, move illegal substances..you know proper villain work."

"Most of the villains think heroes are corrupt anyway, it'll be feeding into their crazed government conspiracies," Hawks added deadpanned. "Should be a walk in the park."

"And why do you need me?" Y/N questioned, using her quirk on Dabi.

"You're pretty to look at. I want the eye candy." Dabi licked his lips and Y/N pressed her quirk more into him to get the real answer. "Your quirk will be used to get us more information from the people Big Bird rough up."

"That's up for debate," Hawks glared at the villain. "Mostly because we need to know Dabi's endgame and your quirk can prevent this from going sideways."

"Sideways?" Y/N asked cautiously, looking between Hawks and Dabi.

"I kill him,"' Dabi grinned wickedly before being shoved in the back by one of the heroes in the room. "Easy with the merchandise, buddy."

Y/N found Hawks' eyes and looked for words and feelings in them. All she found in his eyes was stoicism.

"Walk in the park, hm?" Y/N chewed on her bottom lip. "Well, I'm up for it."

"Are you completely sure, Miss L/N?" Endeavor asked, finally acknowledging her presence. "There's no turning back once you go in. Your friends, family, and job will think you have just disappeared and no one can know where you were when you came back."

"I have two friends, one of them is in this very room. My parents and I talk like every six months, and I can just use vacation time with my job." Y/N raised a brow. "I expect to be paid extremely well, Endeavor."

"And you will be, Miss L/N."

Dabi looked between the two of them, a slightly disgusted look in his blue eyes. Y/N sent him a sly wink in his direction and his gaze narrowed slightly.

"Well, we should pack up your things at the apartment, kid." Hawks stood, looking at the rest of the heroes in the room. "Get him in a secure room, then once we get there into a car. We'll be back in an hour."

"Yessir." One of the heroes nodded.

"C'mon, kid, let's move out." Hawks took Y/N's hand and led her out of the room and through the building out front. "We're on a tight schedule, we're gonna have to fly."

"Oh fuck, Hawks, you know I hate flying," Y/N whined slightly, looking up at the winged hero.

"Kid, you know I'll always catch you if you fall," Hawks grinned at her, holding out his hand. "We don't have a lot of time."

Y/N hesitantly placed her hand into his gloved one, making him smile wider. Hawks pulled Y/N into his chest then picked her up bridal style which made Y/N let out an involuntary squeak.

Cute. He thought to himself, smiling down at the woman in his arms. She had gripped onto the jacket of his hero costume and buried her face in his collar with her forehead pressed on his throat.

Their closeness was fogged by Y/N clear panic as she clung onto the hero, but it made Hawks blush slightly still.

"You ready, kid?"

"As I'll fucking ever be." She snapped, her warm breath travelling across Hawk's neck. He had to hold back a shiver.

"You should be nicer to the person who's flying you through the air at top speed. I'll drop you."
