Day 87
He thought nothing could be worse about finding out that Ali had made out with Dabi weeks earlier but now he had to wonder if she was the one that Dabi was seeing. The one that the guy was sharing a bed with. Taking up the burn't guys mind and body.
Was Ali really the same person that Digit was just complaining about? He was refusing to listen to his gut.
Walking with Shiggy and Twice to the apartment and but barely a foot in could he hear Dabi in the back room. The creaking of the bed, the slapping of skin, and the moans of people.
Instantly feels himself becoming irate. Of course, he holds it in. The difficulty level was high though. His feathers wanted to sharpen and he felt an almost animalistic nature wanting to break through.
He knew that it was part of the bird based quirk. The inner animal wanting to break loose and see if his mate was being consumed in the other room.
The noises somehow sound louder this time. But he has to rationalize it as being just hyper aware. He had to take a moment to close his eyes and stop his ears. To stop trying to analyze if the moans sounded familiar to ones that he has once drawn out of the woman.
Sitting on the beat up couch he was half listening to Shiggy talking about how they were all going to be able to move to a new location soon.
Keeping his strong front was hard but the mask was delicate this evening. He was trying so hard to keep it together. He wanted to say 'fuck the commission' and attack all of the members of the league and ripe the door open to the back room.
It gets quiet and because Hawks had started to learn the man's habits he knew Dabi would be coming to the kitchen for a drink. With that knowledge he makes his way over and gets himself a drink. Leaning against the counter.
Waiting.
True to his habits, Dabi comes to the kitchen and the difference this time is that when he comes through the door there was a chuckle that comes out of his lips. Like he still had lingering amusement from a conversation. His mind was still in the back room even with his body entering the kitchen.
"Looks like you'll be moving soon." He starts conversation.
"Yeah. And then I can say goodbye to this shit hole." Dabi gestures the water bottles around the apartment. The guy skillfully holds the two bottles with his long slender fingers as he grabs a container of strawberries.
Not something he has done before.
Testing the waters, Hawks asks "Room for one more?" Nodding his head to the back door.
The hesitation was brief but it was still there, "Not sure she swings that way. But I'll bring it up and maybe next time. But if you're looking for a lay, I bet Digit's doors are open."
The whole conversation pisses Hawks off but he has to keep his cool the best he can as he watches the man he had built a relationship with cross the kitchen with a dopey smile and disappear into the room.
And Hawks just HAD to know if Ali was on the other side of the door.
