Chapter 3

Third Person POV

Eren waited for Endeavor and Hawks to come. He looked around the office of Endeavor again until he heard the door open.

He turned around and spotted Enji helping Keigo inside the room.

"How many times are you going to get hurt, Keigo?"

Keigo laughed a little but winced and clenched the right side of his stomach.

"He was hit in the stomach... and raped."

Eren didn't change his expression. He felt like he knew who did but didn't keep that thought for long.

"I'll heal his stomach. But I won't be able to heal that part because I know Keigo wouldn't let me," he walked towards Keigo and pulled his shirt up, "any idea who might've done this?"

"Maybe," Enji sighed and helped Keigo sit down, "it might've been the League of Villains. They might be after you, Eren."

"Let them. I can deal with them."

Eren finished healing Keigo and pulled his shirt down. He sighed and shook his head.

"Was this all you needed from me?"

Enji and Keigo nodded.

"Okay," Eren nodded, "I'm gonna go back at our place, Keigo. You want me to cook you anything?"

"Chicken!!"

Eren groaned in annoyance and glared at Keigo, "you owe me big time."

"Yeah, yeah! Just go make it!! I'm hungry!!"

"But you won't come back until eleven!"

"Yeah!"

Hawk's POV

I finished putting my costume and left my bedroom, walking down the hall towards Erens' room. I quietly opened it and peeked inside, seeing Eren sleeping soundly with the stuffed animal his Mother made him. I smiled to myself and stayed there a little longer until I had to leave.

I quickly left our house and flew away to the city to find the alleyway he told me to meet at.

I searched for a little more when I found someone leaning against the wall, probably waiting for me.

I sighed to myself and carefully flapped down to the ground.

"You're late."

"Shut up. I'm not doing it for you, I'm doing it for Eren. He'll be angry and upset if he found out I'm working for you and your stupid boyfriend."

"Handsy is not my boyfriend. You are."

I shook my head and stepped back, my right hand on my heart and my left hand up beside me, "I didn't agree on being your boyfriend. Plus, I don't like or love you. My heart belongs to someone else. Though they don't know it yet."

"Oh? And who does it being to? Endeavor?"

My eyes widened and almost gagged at the name.

Why the hell would he think I like Endeavor?!

"No," I coughed and shook my head, "we're great friends. My heart belongs to someone else, and I'm not you telling who."

He rose an eyebrow, and after a couple of seconds last, he snarled and balled his fists. I smirked and nodded, putting my hands down.

"No. He's not yours."

"And he's not yours, either. You had your chance and you blew it. Might as well let him find someone else. He'll find someone better than you and me."

"Shut up. We need to get going."

He grabbed my wrist and roughly pulled me against his shoulder, wrapping and arm around me and holding me tightly.

"We're not dating, asshole."

"I don't care. You're mine."

It felt like a long walk but we finally made it their hide out, and he knocked on the door.

"Open up, Toga. He finally stood up and decided to come."

The door jiggled open and a short blondie with messy buns on the side of her head came out with a big smile on her face.

"Dabiiii! Ooh, I can't wait how Shigaraki will take thiiiiis!"

"Yeah, yeah. Hurry up and get in."

Toga, I think that's her name, skipped inside and Dabi took me by force, kicking the door close.

"Handsy! I got him!"

Shigaraki looked our way and stood up, "well... the Number 2 Hero showed up... How's Eren?"

"Tsk! Like I'd tell! You all had your chances but blew it on the kid who went through a lot!"

"Calm, down Hawks," Dabi leaned close to my face and I can smell the smoke from the cigarettes, "we just want to know how he's doing."

"He's better off without you all."

"Alright," Shigaraki started scratching his neck, "is there anything U.A. will be doing this week?"

"Not really..." I regret what was going to come out of my mouth, "1-A is going to USJ to practice some rescuing on different natural disasters..."

"Is Eren going to be there~?"

I glared at Toga, wanting to kill her but Dabi blocked my way, "is he..?"

I hesitated for a bit, "... yes..."

"Great!"

Shigaraki stopped scratching his neck and I can feel him smiling under that plastic hand. Toga squealed in excitement while Dabi looked rather happy.

"Can I go now? I don't him worrying where I went."

"Yes, yes, you can go." Kurogiri waved me off and I nodded at his answer.

At least someone gets me...

Eren's POV

I looked into his room one more time until finally gave up.

Where are you, Keigo..?

I sat down on the couch and sighed, still wondering where Keigo might've gone.

I suddenly heard the door moving and I immediately dropped on my knees and covered my head with my arms, trying ro stop the shaking that's coming from all over my body.

"Eren?! It's only me, don't worry!"

I could feel Keigos' silky voice from afar and I slowly took my arms off.

"Keigo..?"

He pulled me to his chest and hugged me tightly. I hugged him back and clenched on his shirt.

"It's okay, Eren! I didn't get hurt!! You don't have to worry about me..."

I looked up at him and tried glaring but my stupid self started crying. Keigo looked surprised but he then smiled.

"Awe... you have such a cute baby face~! You're cheeks are turning red, Eren, please don't cry!"

"H-how can I i-if you're a-always gone!!"

"I'm always here with you, Eren... don't ever forget that..."

He kissed my forehead and continued running his fingers in my hair and rubbing circles on my back.

I finally caught my breath and managed to calm down. He lifted my chin up and kissed my nose.

Huh?? This is the first time he kissed my nose and my forehead...
