Shizuo always had misgivings about his own strength. He was always afraid of hurting the people he cared about with his immense power. Many people in his position would abuse such gift (or burden). But Shizuo never wanted anything more than to be a normal person like everyone else. He didn't suffer any trauma during his childhood, neither did he grow up in an abnormal family. He was the same as everyone, except he wasn't at the same time.
Ever since he met [reader], he knew she was yet another person he had to be careful around. He had unintentionally hurt the people he loved before. At first he tried to distant himself from her. He would tell her to stay away from him unless she was positive about getting a beating. Although [reader] was a relatively quiet girl, she still stuck to him. She followed him everywhere and even when he had threatened to pick her up and throw her into the garbage bin, she still continued to follow. Of course, he didn't mean any of his threats. They were all only meant to probably scare her away from him.
He almost felt touched by how someone else could accept him for who he was. He only wanted to be a normal human in the world and he wished some people could treat him as one. He only used his strength when he got angry. He couldn't help it, but his body would always move on its own.
Before he knew it, he had already found himself tangled in a relationship with the girl. She had been following him as per usual when she suddenly asked him to go on a date with her. He was day dreaming at the time, so he blindly said "sure" without knowing what he had gotten himself into. Before he could clear up the misunderstanding though, she had already had high hopes and wishes to be with him and support him no matter what happened. It didn't really bother him anyway,it didn't affect his daily life very much and he liked the girl from the bottom of his heart or maybe even love. He wasn't sure what kind of feeling it was but he was conflicted by his desire to protect her and his selfishness to be with her. What if he got mad at her one day and unwittingly throws a vending machine at her? She's only a normal human. She didn't have any special parkour techniques like the flea did. And he was sure that a small girl like her would atleast get a few bones broken from the impact. He dreaded the day it would come. Once again , he hated himself and his strength.
"Ah!" Shizuo snapped out of his day dream when he heard a sharp gasp from [reader]. They had been walking down a flight of stairs when the girl had lost her footing and tripped, spraining her ankle in the process."H-hey! Are you okay?" Tom turned around and tried to help her up."I'll carry her." Shizuo said quickly and kneeled down to carry [reader] bridal style. The girl felt her cheeks heat up as the bodyguard continued to follow Tom out of the building, carrying her as if she weighed like a feather.
"I love your strength, Shizuo... It always helps me out in times like these..." [reader] said softly as she leaned against his chest.
The man sighed and smiled a little. It doesn't matter if he hates his strength, as long as he can continue to not hurt her, everything would be fine.
