Song: J. Howell - Something About Ya

Warning This Chapter Contains Mature Content

After two days Dabi was still unsure how to feel. On the one hand she had helped him in more ways then one, on the other she went against his wishes and got in the middle of his fight.

But they lost anyway. It was over and he wasn't even there to see what the after affects where.

He was also having a hard time looking himself in the mirror, seeing the ghost of his former self instead of the man he fought so hard to become. The person he saw in the reflection was not him and he felt like he wouldn't be satisfied until he changed it. Igniting his flames in his hands he suddenly remembered where he was and decided that he should step outside away from everyone, but mostly Siren, just incase he burned the place down.

After letting his flames loose for awhile, he didn't feel any better. He knew that it would take a lot more than that to return to his former self but for now he needed some food and a shower.

Stepping back into the hotel he took in his surroundings and of course the place was five star. 'Only the best for Siren,' he thought as he walked to the elevator. The hardest thing to deal with was whether or not he could actually confront Siren like this.

It was time to check out and Siren was trying to accept what Dabi's absence meant. He was still angry with her. Unable to forgive her for saving his life. '..Guess I went too far,' she thought walking out of the hotel. Handing her rolling luggage to the driver, she was in a daze as she stepped into the back seat of the blacked out SUV.

Siren did her best not to cry or show any emotion for that matter. She wasn't just upset about the situation, she was also angry at herself. For months she rode the roller coaster of emotions that was Dabi and she lost a bit of herself in doing so.

Getting back to her roots and being around the group would actually help right now. So that's where she was going. Once at the airport she would catch a flight to L.A. She'd already made arrangements for a new condo in Beverly Hills, all of her belongings where already being unpacked and set up for her as we speak.

Feeling the vibration of her phone in the pocket of her shorts, she retrieved the device and answered the call from Reggie.

"Yeah?"

"What time does your flight land?"

"Two."

"You sure you wanna do the tour announcement tonight? We can find a way to push it-" "We can't reschedule. It's a live show and they already have their guests lined up for the rest of the season. Only reason we even got on the show tonight was because someone else cancelled."

"I just don't want you to push yourself, you have nothing to prove to anyone."

'No. I have to prove to myself that I can do this…I need a distraction that is going to take up all of my time and energy and what better way to do that than to promote and go on tour.'

"I'll be fine Reggie, but I appreciate your concern."

One Year Later

The Nowhere Kids album went platinum five times, which is great for a comeback album, especially for a group. Their tour sold out within a few hours of tickets going live online. And in the midst of rehearsals, appearances and concerts Siren found time to finish another solo album for herself. Which she released three months ago.

Her second album which she called 'Hot and Bothered' went platinum ten times over. Siren was beyond ecstatic, but at the same time she was working even more now than before.

Commercials, guests spots on shows, voice acting for cartoons and movies. Magazine covers, fashion shoots, even clothing lines wanted her as the face of their brands.

Everything was coming at her nonstop, she didn't even have time to think about Dabi for even a second most days.

But it doesn't mean she didn't.

Every once in awhile her mind would still drift to the once scarred man who made her feel so many things. But again she never let her mind wander too far for too long. The only time she let herself open up that can of worms, was when she was working on her second album.

The album was focused on her relationship with Dabi. The lust, the sex, the break-ups, the make-ups, the triangle in the form of Hawks, and the love. It was graphic, explicit, raw and unapologetically Siren. Guess she shouldn't be surprised that it sold so well.

Tonight was the music industry's biggest award show and Siren was standing on the stage with her eyes closed as the cheers at her introduction died down. The music started as Siren cradled the mic in her hand.

"Can I get some space

Baby give me time to think

Is you gon' be able to love

Am I gon' be able to trust ya

Stuck in my feelings yeah

Hand over heart, lying in the dark

Trying to make sense of it

Is you gon' be inside my bed?

Thoughts of you stuck in my head." Behind her a scene played out like a memory from long ago. It was Siren and Dabi together in different locations. Sometimes they where smiling and other times they where arguing.

"And I know this shit ain't going nowhere

Know this shit'll never be fair

Loving you is complicated

Trusting you is just a maybe

I wanna leave ya, but I can't stop," Siren was running from his arms and right back into them only to be pushed away and pulled back.

"Another nigga taking my spot

Wanting you is breaking my heart

There's something about ya

Something about ya

Make me, wanna

Something about ya

Something about him

Make me, want ya (You got me)

Questioning if it's worth it

Damn this shit just ain't workin'." Tears threatened to fall and she could feel herself losing out to her emotions.

"First we're breaking up

Then you call me up

Fallen' back in love

I just don't understand

How can we do this shit over again

Just cause I love you and you love me

That doesn't mean that we're meant to be

Can you hold my heart and not break it?

Thinking I've got yours

But the most frightening thing is, baby

I know this shit ain't going nowhere…" More scenes of Siren and Dabi played out as ghostly images behind her. She felt a tears rolling down her face as she continued to basically project her memories for all the world to see.

Everything faded away and it was just Siren on stage. Her voice almost cracked at the end and she did her best to hold herself upright so that she didn't collapse on stage.

The crowd erupted in applause and Siren put a hand to her face to hide her tears. Thankfully the spot light turned off and Siren made a beeline for her dressing room backstage.

Stepping into the room she closed the door behind her and took a deep breath as she leaned against it. She didn't want to cry or deal with her emotions right now so she wiped the last of the tears and turned to the rack of clothes.

About to reach for her next dress for the evening she felt a presence that she hadn't noticed before and immediately turned to look around. Siren was very unsure how to respond in that moment to the man sitting in her makeup chair.

He was dressed in an all black suit, with a black button down shirt, no tie and black dress shoes. His white hair contrasting the look but also making him stand out.

Since she had no idea what to say or how to react, she decided the best thing to do would be to ignore him. Her hand quickly grabbed the dress inspecting it to make sure it was still in pristine condition and made her way to the bathroom. As she walked past him, he said nothing, didn't even bother to move. Forcing her to question if he was real to begin with. 'After what I just put myself through on stage I shouldn't be surprised that I'm seeing things.'

Siren reemerged in a beautiful mermaid silhouette gown that hugged her curves perfectly. It was also the same shade of lavender as her eyes. Still ignoring the mirage she walked back over to the rack of dresses and bent down to grab a pair of nude heels.

Dabi took in her appearance. She hadn't changed at all, still beautiful and obviously out of his league. He stood silently and stepped closer to her as she finally stood with her shoes in hand. Turning quickly she almost ran into his chest and was forced to look at him. Their eyes met but neither of them spoke.

Siren really didn't want to deal with this right now. She closed her eyes and turned to leave when she felt a hand on her upper arm. She didn't look back at him, just tried to get out of his grasp.

"Siren-" "I have somewhere to be in the next two minutes, if you still have something to say afterwards, come find me then."

A p.a. knocked on the door announcing that she was needed on standby. Siren pulled her arm from his and walked out the door.

She didn't see him after accepting her award.

She didn't see him at the after party.

'Maybe it was all in my head,' she thought subconsciously grabbing her arm where his hand was previously. 'But it felt so real.'

Stepping into her dark empty condo, Siren sighed heavily. "Sweet solitude," she muttered to herself as she stepped out of the uncomfortable high heels.

She didn't bother to take anything else off as she opened her clutch purse and pulled out a pre rolled cigarillo. Placing the stick in her mouth she grabbed the lighter from her purse and lit the end of it inhaling the smoke deeply.

Walking around the island counter into her open kitchen she grabbed a glass and a bottle of vodka. Pouring herself a double shot, she mixed it with some pineapple juice that was in the fridge and went back and forth from sipping the drink and smoking the blunt.

With her back to the front door, that she'd forgotten to lock, Siren didn't notice the shadowy figure that snuck into her home.

Gulping down the last of her drink she turned around and immediately dropped the glass in her hand in surprise. The sound of shattering glass brought her back to reality only for a moment before the dark figure stepped into the light of the moon that shone through the skylights in the ceiling.

Siren starred with wide eyes. However instead of saying anything she brought the stick to her lips and inhaled. It was then that she noticed her hand was shaking. Putting the blunt out in the nearby ashtray quickly, she dropped her hands so that they wouldn't be seen.

He continued to step further into the kitchen as he rounded the island to stand next to her. Swallowing hard she refused to look away, appalled that her mind was doing this to her once again.

"Siren." His voice. That familiar low raspy voice that she loved so much.

Her eyes met his and she could no longer hold back the tears. 'This isn't real, he isn't real..Dabi isn't here in my kitchen.' With that thought she turned and walked quickly towards her room, hoping that if she ignored the mirage that it would go away.

She'd dealt with this plenty of times in the past year. And every time it would almost get her. Make her think that he was real before realizing that he wasn't.

'I mean, fuck, how long does it really take to get over someone?!'

He didn't say anything else as he followed right behind her. And before she could close the door he caught it and stepped into her bedroom. She turned to him, still with a look of surprise and Dabi grabbed her chin as he looked into her eyes, silently searching for an answer to the question that he refused to vocalize.

The tears continued to fall down her cheeks, barely registering that their faces where slowly getting closer. His lips hovered directly over hers. Siren looked from his eyes to his mouth and Dabi closed the distance.

The kiss was slow and unsure at first until Siren threw her arms around his neck, pulling their bodies flush together. He deepened the kiss and slid his tongue into her mouth as his hands found their way around her waist. She relaxed into his arms and they continued to kiss for awhile.

He was real. Dabi was actually here and she didn't want to question, how or why. She just wanted to revel in it. Get lost and swept up in him once more.

It was safe to say that Dabi was worse than heroine. He'd hooked her from the moment they met and she didn't even realize it until now.

Her hands where in his hair as she tried to re-memorize everything that was Dabi. The man who made her weak in every aspect of the word. The man who she knew nothing about. The man who left her high and dry..The man she was so desperately in love with.

His hands where all over her body, no longer acting coy with his touch. He found the zipper to her dress and slowly slid it down. The rest of the material fell to the floor leaving Siren in just a black thong and her jewelry. She looked like one of those risqué expensive cologne ads.

Dabi removed his blazer and quickly ripped the buttons off the black button down shirt he wore underneath. Her hands immediately went to his chest drinking him in as he made quick work of his trousers.

He picked her up and her legs went around his waist as he walked towards the bed and gently laid her onto it. She grabbed his face catching his attention and kissed him passionately. Hoping that she could convey more of how she really felt. That this was what she'd wanted, not just for the past year but from the moment they first saw each other in the bar.

He returned the kiss and Siren couldn't help the moan that escaped her as he rubbed his already hard cock against her clothed sex. His fingers slid into the waistband of her underwear and dragged them down her legs, tossing them to the side with the rest of their clothes.

Without breaking the kiss Dabi grabbed the head of his length and lined it up with Sirens center. His entry was slow and teasing, but it filled her to the brim and she flinched no longer used to his girth.

Her nails dug into his shoulders, most likely drawing blood. Dabi didn't care though he was too caught up to care about anything other than the feeling of the woman under him.

He never realized how much he was missing before. With his scars gone and his skin and nerves restored, it was like feeling everything for the first time all over again.

That's also why he refused to release her lips. He knew they where full and soft but he didn't know that they felt this good pressed against his. Just like how her nails in his shoulders felt like confirmation that what he was doing was causing a reaction.

The slow rhythm was different to their normal rutting and fast paced fucks. Finally breaking the kiss so both of them could catch their breaths Siren let out a delicious sound that sparked something in Dabi.

"That's right…Tell me who you belong to?"

"You…only you, Dabi."

Siren opened her eyes slowly and noted that the bed was empty. Her hand resting in the space next to her feeling no warmth to signify that anyone had been there. Normally she would feel depressed at the thought that it really was just a dream, but her sex and legs where sore, in a very good way. 'Definitely not a dream.'

When she opened her bedroom door, her nose was hit with a very delicious aroma. Following the smell she stepped into the kitchen and was surprised to see Dabi dressed in only his pants, cooking.

Stepping closer she wrapped her arms around him and he flinched not having noticed her until that moment. "I see you're back to your assassin stealth," he said as she peaked over his shoulder to see what he was making.

"Are you making us breakfast?" She asked ignoring his statement.

"Hn, nah. This is just for me," he replied with a smirk on his face.

"You're so mean," she pouted noting how sexy he looked, all shirtless and domesticated.

Before she could question him further a plate was in front of her with an omelet on it. She grabbed it and walked away grabbing a fork and sitting on the stool at the island.

Taking a bite she was only slightly surprised that it tasted delicious. She ate in silence for a few minutes before saying, "Okay, so you can cook. What else don't I know about you?"

"A lot." He said with a smirk as he platted an omelet for himself and turned to face her.

"Enlighten me," she responded with a hopeful smile.

Two Years Later

"I changed my mind." He said hastily stepping away from the front door.

"We're already here, just ring the damn bell," Siren looked him up and down expectingly, but he refused to move, just like the stubborn man child that he was. "Touya?"

"I can't," he sighed exasperated.

"Fine, then I will," she said quickly side stepping him and pressing the doorbell. "Damnit Siren," he said quickly trying to look less uncomfortable.

After a few minutes the door opened and a woman with long white hair with pieces of red scattered throughout looked at the two of them.

"Hel-lo no way…you're Siren!" She said realization spreading across her face at the woman she'd seen so many times on T.V.

"Yes I am, but that's not why we're here, right?" Siren responded looking over to her male companion.

The woman looked over to the man standing next to Siren, assuming at first that he was her bodyguard. But as she continued to stare, another look of familiar realization dawned on her.

She stepped closer to get a better look, "…T-Touya?"

"..Yeah?" He answered nonchalantly.

"..You're alive?!..I feel like I'm having a case of deja' vu."

Siren interjected. "Can we come in? Probably shouldn't have this conversation outside."

"That wasn't that bad." Siren said trying to be optimistic, a new trait for her.

"No one was happy to see me-" She cut off his negative comment, "You have to give it time. These things don't fix themselves overnight."

He sighed heavily, "..I thought looking like this would at least, ease the tension."

"Hey, they know you're alive…again. Give them some time, I'm sure they'll open up eventually."

"I'm surprised you didn't tell them about the baby."

"..We just found out about that. Besides it's too early to tell other people about it."

"I want everyone to know," he said grabbing her hand causing her to look into his eyes. With a smile she placed her other hand over her stomach. "Everyone will know soon enough."

Five Years Later

Siren was standing in her home office making sure all the paperwork that needed to be signed was and that everything was in it's proper place before she left.

She'd started her own label nearly five years ago and it was rapidly becoming successful. There where only ten artists/groups signed to her label right now but every single one of them has put out a hit album. Not a single one didn't hit the charts, and all of them went platinum at least once.

When Siren got pregnant she knew it was the perfect time to take a step back from being in the spotlight and become the boss she aspired to be.

Siren had a vision from the start. And after the first and only label she ever signed with tried to pit her against her own group. She knew that she wanted to create a label that was a haven for artists to thrive.

Making Nowhere Kids her partners was the best thing for her and the company. They are some of the only people she can trust and they all understand how fucked up the industry has gotten.

Siren heard loud whispering just outside the door. She rolled her eyes already knowing what was about to happen.

Stepping lightly she walked right up to the door and slowly grabbed the handle. Turning it quickly Siren practically jumped out of the room and into the hallway making the two kids who'd been standing there scream and run in the opposite direction. "Run! It's mommy monster!"

"That's right and mommy monster is going to eat both of you!" Siren ran after the five and three year old almost catching them before they slipped into the designated playroom and closed the door.

Siren knocked on the door loudly, getting into character. "Little pigs, little pigs, let me in!"

"Not by the hair on the chiny chin chin!" They said in unison.

"Then I'll huff and I'll-" the ringing of Sirens phone made her stop as she reached for the device in her pocket, walking away from the playroom and back towards her office. The name 'Fuyumi' flashed on the screen and Siren sighed heavily before answering.

"Hello?"

"Hey Siren, our flight just landed."

"Great…thanks again for convincing everyone to come here this year."

"It actually wasn't that hard once I said it was paid for."

Siren laughed 'Of course.' "The limo will be at your disposal the whole time you guys are here and I already stocked the house you guys are staying at."

"Thank you for doing all of this. I can't remember the last time we all got together for a holiday that wasn't at the family estate."

"Yeah well, as you know it's a little harder for us to come to Japan so it's nice that we can switch it up for the sake of the kids every now and then."

"Dosu is so excited to see you guys."

"And we can't wait to see all of you. I'll text you later about tomorrow."

"Sounds good, later." Siren ended the call and turned to the now open door as two small heads where peaking around the corner starring at her.

The five year old was a boy named Koichi with a light tan complexion, white hair that fell into his eyes and bright blue eyes similar to his father.

The three year old was a girl named Mya also with a very light golden brown complexion with white hair that fell to her shoulder blades and eyes that where a bright royal purple.

Koichi stepped into the room first "Mommy, where you talking to auntie fuyu?"

"Yes I was."

"Hmm, okay…can we go see auntie fuyu and cousin dosu?" "I wanna see auntie fu and cousin dosu too."

"We are going to see auntie fuyu, cousin dosu, uncle Natsu and Shoto and grandma and grandpa, because they're coming here for Christmas."

"Yeah! I'm so excited!..Wait, where's daddy?"

"He's probably in the studio."

"Let's go find daddy Koichi," "Okay." They ran towards the stairs that would lead to the first floor and Siren couldn't help the smile that spread across her face.

Turning the opposite way Siren walked towards the master bedroom and opened the door. The bed was empty but she heard him rummaging in the their walk in closet.

She leaned against the open door and looked at the love of her life. His white hair still hung in his eyes while the sides were cut short and in a fade. Currently he was shirtless while wearing a pair of black denim jeans.

He seemed lost in thought as he looked at the many shirts that hung in the closet and Siren walked up behind him to put her arms around his waist. Resting her chin on his shoulder she cuddled close to him as his hand went to her face and pulled her in for a kiss.

"Are they here?"

"Yeah, plane just landed." She felt his body stiffen. "Don't be like that, you guys have gotten a lot better since our first holiday with your family."

He exhaled loudly and she already knew what it meant.

"I'm serious. You guys have all done your fair share to each other but I think it's nice the way we can still all get together and be cordial."

"I'm sure that's more you and the kids than it is me."

"..You might be right about that."

"Daddy!-" "Mommy!-" "We found you!"

The next day Siren stood in her oversized kitchen cooking a literal feast while Koichi and Mya played with their new toys on the floor of the living room, which she could oversee from the kitchen. Touya sat on the couch flipping through the channels on the television.

Moments like this where nice. No work, no fans, no paparazzi, just the four of them doing their own thing, together.

The sound of the doorbell pulled Siren from her thoughts as both kids jumped to their feet and ran to the front door.

"I got it!-" "No, I got it!-"

Siren smiled as the kids raced each other to the front door to open it.

"Merry Christmas!" They yelled simultaneously as the door opened to the Todoroki family. "Aww, look at you two, you'r getting so big." Rei and Enji got caught up in their grandchildren while the rest of them stepped inside to get out of the cold.

"Hey Siren..need help?" Fuyumi asked stepping into the kitchen.

"I'm almost done but if you don't mind I could use some help setting up the dinning room."

"Did you guys get your bags?" Siren asked the two kids who couldn't keep still knowing that they would get to spend the night with their grandparents.

Despite the problems Touya had as a child he never kept his kids from his family. He may have avoided them himself but he was slowly adjusting to them coming around.

"Yeah!" "Can we go now?" They questioned already standing by the front door with their coats and shoes on.

"You two are always in such a hurry." Siren smiled at them as she made sure everything they needed was in their overnight bags.

"Because we wanna go to grams house."

"Well can I at least get a hug?" Two sets of arms wrapped around Siren as she dropped down to their level. "Have fun you two."

"Bye mommy." "Bye daddy." They waved as they turned to leave.

"We'll see you guys in a few days okay?"

"Okay!"

With that the front door closed and it was just Siren and Touya.

They side eyed each other before their lips connected in a heated, passionate kiss. Sirens arms went around his neck while his hands grabbed at her ass and squeezed.

Walking backwards Siren felt herself get pushed into the wall as she wrapped her legs around him while Touya hooked his arms under her knees to help lift her body for a better angle.

Sirens short dress exposed her unclothed sex to him and his hands made quick work of his belt and zipper.

Touya starred at the ceiling of the living room as Siren was laid out on top of him. He had no idea how he made it this far or got this lucky. His hand rubbed circles into her back and Siren nestled further into his chest.

A smile spread across his face and he decided that now was as good a time as any. "Siren."

Siren turned her head so that she was looking up at him. "Yes?"

"Marry me."

Her eyes lit up as she readjusted her position so that she could see him fully. "..Your actually asking me?"

"You thought I wouldn't?" He raised an eyebrow at her incredulously.

"I..wasn't sure."

His hand cupped her face and she leaned into it. "I love you and that's never gonna change, so marry me."

Sirens eyes searched his for something she already knew. A smile spread across her face as she practically whispered, "Yes," she kissed the hand that was close to her cheek, "A thousand times yes." His lips where on hers and they both knew that they'd found where they belong.

Fin

Thank you all for taking this journey with me. The few comments I got are the only reason I was able to finish so I hope you enjoyed, and I'll see ya in the next one.
