Day 95
They were getting their clothing together. Finding that they both had an upturned smile on their lips.
Without instruction Dabi takes out the food from the stove. They've learned to live together for a while now and things came naturally for them.
"Got me doing domestic and shit" She hears him mumble.
She chuckles at the fact that their thoughts were probably insync. Both becoming aware of just how well they worked together.
They make their way to the living room with her leading the way. The door was a swinging door and she barely makes in through when she sees him.
Hawks. Keigo.
Her first thought was to turn and run. But turning she bumps into Dabi who was carrying the casserole dish. She felt like her hands were on fire and her legs had adrenaline coursing through them. Her whole body was telling her to run away from the two men.
Hawks face. The emotions.
She could read them but the worst part was watching the end result of neutrality.
His sharp predatory eyes on both Dabi and herself. Like he was keepig himself on the side of caution. Dabi must have felt the shift. Because his hands shift and he holds the deep dish in one hand while his other lays on her lower back.
The gesture was both soothing but held a layer of discomfort. It felt far more intimate of a touch in front of Hawks.
"Hey, Birdy. Didn't think you'd be joining us." Dabi.
They know each other? How could she have gone this long and not noticed.
Twice threw his arm over Hawks shoulder, "Yeah. I invited him. Figured he could meet the whole family."
Her heart swelled at the word. Family. They really had become like a family. Being with Dabi opened up a world for her.
She had a great job and made friends with Compress and a few Libration members. He helped her leave Digit and the apartment. Dabi was the reason she had a new life.
"I love having Ali around. I hate hearing her moans at night." Twice's smile turns from upright and then to a cringe. He even did a whole body shiver.
Her face reddens and she turns her eyes to the floor not wanting to see Hawks face.
"Don't be listening then." Dabi states, "Now let's eat. I just worked up an appetite."
She goes to pull on his arm. "Dabi." Her voice is pleading, "There is something I need to tell you." The whole thing was a whisper."
