Burning Desire (Dabi x Reader)

New Challenger Approaches

- The Next Day -

The burner phone on the coffee table buzzed, alerting you of a text. Kurogiri had given you the phone after the attack on the first hideout. It was a new precaution that needed to be made. You finished lacing up your combat boots and flipped the phone open. It was a text from Toga.

Blood Sucker: (Y/N)!!!! 

Blood Sucker: Where are you? I'm BORED o(〒﹏〒)o

You rolled your eyes at the text message. Dabi stepped out of the bathroom, wearing nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist. Steam rolled out of the bathroom behind him, his chiseled chest still covered in droplets of water. Upon seeing your flushed face, he winked at you. You quickly turned your attention back to your phone.

Arachne: I'll be there soon (凸ಠ益ಠ)凸

Blood Sucker: Hurrrryyyy!!

Blood Sucker: Oh BTW 

Blood Sucker: Tell Dabi I said hi (^ω~)

You raised your eyebrow at her text message and turned your attention towards Dabi. He had just stepped back into the living room fully clothed in his usual attire. His ebony locks were slicked back while they dried, the tips dripping a few drops of water. 

"They annoying the crap out of you for not showing up yet?"

"Not exactly. But it was Toga." The mention of her name made him listen up. "So...I'm pretty sure she knows we're dating. Or at least she thinks she knows."

He rolled his eyes and walked over to the couch to take a look at your phone. After he was done reading the messages, he grimaced. "God. She kept doing the exact same shit last time when you were gone on your quirk upgrade journey."

"I really hope that she doesn't tell the others but..." you trailed off, your voice unsure. "It would be really annoying if Shigaraki found out. Plus, I hate to admit it but you're right. If other villains find out, they may try to use that to their advantage in fights."

"I told you so," he taunted, smirk on his lips. "If it ever does happen, I'm sure we could handle it easily."

"Still, I'd rather avoid it all together. Ugh, I might have to talk to her about it."

Dabi touseled your (h/c) locks. "Yeah, you have fun with that."

You jabbed his side, frown on you face. "I don't get it. Why aren't you coming to the meeting?"

"I have something to do," he shrugged.

"Something? Like what?"

"Shigaraki is sending me to meet someone. He's sorta like an informant," he explained. 

"Well, have fun with that," you retorted. You got up from the couch and put up the hood from your black jacket. Sadly, you still didn't have a new costume yet. You headed towards the font door. "I'll let you know how the meeting goes. Bye, be safe." 

"Be safe," he mumbled. "Tell that fuckface I said hi!"

The sky's' null moon cast a shadowy glare over the thick forest. The night held a chill to the air with its bellowing winds that rustled the tree leaves. The sound of a sewing machines needle ticking away could be heard echoing throughout the abandoned warehouse. You had explored the warehouse for a bit and managed to an old, dusty sewing machine in one of the many rooms. It had most likely been left behind due to negligence. You used the machine to your advantage and began sewing up a new costume for yourself. Wearing jeans all the time wouldn't do the trick.
