Happy holidays!

Y/n pov

The night was kind of cold but I diddnt mind to much. Dabi was inhumanly warm. I clung to his back as we drove in the night air. It seemed maybe about 8 o'clock by now so it wasn't to late. I dont think dabi has any more big surprises so it should be a chill night, well all depends on were we are headed to now. I layed my head on dabis shoulder as I saw soft orange glow coming from a window in the far distance. It was a cabin that almost looked like the one we were just in. And just my luck we were headed that way. I've never even been around this part so I'm clueless of what we are doing. Dabi slowed to a stop infront of the dimly lit cabin. I got off the bike and started walking to the front door. Somthing about this place seemed so familiar yet such a distant memory. Was my mind just playing tricks on me, or do I remember this place from somewhere?
 
   From the distance I could hear the bike turn off and the kick stand hit the ground to be sat down. I could hear dabi's soft footsteps behind me as I opened up the door to this little cabin. " what is this place?" I asked walking into the cabin. There was a little candle on a coffee table in the middle of the room. The air smelt like poison to me, somthing about this place made me feel sick and dirty. Dabi shut the door behind him then walked up behind me resting his hands on my shoulders guiding me around. " im not sure, looked interesting though." He stated while taking one of his hands off my shoulder. He emitted a small blue flame from his hand to light up the whole room. My heart dropped and my whole world seemed to start spinning. Everything in my being  seemed to be shutting down. Who knew that one lonely object could bring back so many things. My feet moved on their own carrying across the room. I stopped right infront of that hideous fireplace. So many things started flooding through my head like a hurricane. I wasn't even thinking about dabi right now, that was my last concern at the moment. I reach my hand out picking up the small metal heart. Once opon a time I had made this, I created it with my small fragile hands. This tiny piece of metal brought so many things back. I jumped with a soft gasp dropping the metal heart onto the ground as dabi put his hand on my shoulder.
" are you ok? Your whole mood changed." He asked softly looking at the metal heart that had fallen to the ground. I shook my head bending down to pick up the thin metal  heart.
" I've been here before.  This.... this is mine." I whispered looking down at the simple object. How could somthing so small hold so much power.  Dabi moved from behind me to my side and held out his hand. I looked up at him with teary eyes. I handed him the thin metal heart.
" what happen here anyway? It looks kind of beat up." Dabi asked turning the little heart in his hand.
  " this is where they toutred me.. for years and years on end. I was so little I diddnt even remember this place. Come here" I grabbed his hand pulling him to a door in the corner of the room. The 4 locks were still on it.
I opened the door up and the burnt floor boreds and walls still remained.
" this is where they kept me most of the time."
" what happen in here?" He asked.
I shrugged and walked around the room. " I have no clue, I don't remember everything." I sighed softly tracing the wall with my fingers. The black residue from the burnt wood rubbing off on my fingers.
" I dont think this was a good place to go. Im sorry y/n" dabi said from the doorway.  I dont even know what emotions im feeling right now. Everything is so overwhelming.
" no,no its fine I grew up here. Good and bad memories reside.
Dabi sighed and walked into the room coming up behind me. " come on let's go " he grabbed my hand and tried leading me out if the room. I took one last glance at the burnt room searching for any memory but came up short. Dabi dragged me out of the room and into the main area. " dabi, im fine really." I protested causing him to stop and look at me. " how could you not remember everything? I thought you told be they did bad things to you?" Dabi held my hand firmly with a soft but stern expression. I take a deep breathe and let it out slowly thinking of what I should say. " i..I don't know. They used me as one of their experiments along with a toy for their friends to use." I started tearing up thinking back at that cold dark room they had kept me in. Dabi pulled me forward almost  making me trip but I landed in his chest. He softly and slowly stroked my hair as he held me close. We are all human right? We put up a mask for others? Or dose that only attain to people like me and dabi.i wrapped my arms around dabis torso and held onto him tightly. I could feel and hear him sigh softly as he rested his chin ontop of my head.  " I diddnt know what this place was, if I did i wouldn't of brought you here." He stated and I nodded my head agaisnt his chest. " its ok really. I..I just want to leave, everything is coming back." I say pushing away from his chest. Dabi held ahold of my forearm softly but securely as we walked out.
" so is there anywhere else you can think of?" I asked trying to change the depressing mood. But I couldn't help but wonder why I couldn't remember everything. Was it somthing they did to me? Or is it just the brains way of protecting me? Either way I'm safe with dabi, well at least I hope so.

" I think we should head back to the house and go to bed, it is pretty late." He said while getting on the bike.
" oh, ok your right. " I said while I got back onto the bike holding onto dabi once again. I couldn't help but look at that old cabin as we drove away. It didn't look totally abandoned from the outside. It looked like maybe a small family would live there or go there for vacations. But sadly that was far from the truth. A family was torn apart in that house.  It would be for the better if both me and dabi acted like we never saw this place. Josh is coming after me as we speak. I need to keep my guard up again, I don't know who I can trust. For all I know dabi could of set this up but I highly doubt that, I could see the hurt in his eyes when I started explaining. It seems he's not very good with Trauma.

     We drove down the long dirt roads the cool night air hitting my face. It is really pretty down here though so thats a plus. The ride home was pretty silent until we got back into town. Cars zoomed by us as we sped down the street. No one seemed to care that we were going over the speed limit. Or that a wanted criminal was out and about. That's a weird thing, no seemed to acutely know what dabi looked like. They have had a picture of him on the news, more of a silluatte of him.  We got back to the house and he put the bike in the garage. " that was fun, thanks dabi." I said softly as we both got off the bike.
" no problem." He answered and went inside the house,me following close behind him. He lazily set the keys down on the table and took his jacket off haning it up with the rest. I didn't even attempt to take the hoodie I was wearing off because I'm pretty sure my shirt would come up with it.
" you headed to bed?" I asked dabi while walking up the stairs. He was just standing and leaning on the railing at the bottom of the stairs. " yeah I am go ahead." He said walking off into the kitchen. " alright, goodnight." I walked up the stairs and into my room. I took of the hoodie and I was right. My shirt came off with it. I put them in the basket while looking for somthing else to wear to bed I put on a t-shirt and shorts and plopped down onto my bed with a heavy sigh.  I have a feeling things are going to get more eventful from here on out. Josh now knows where I live  and there isn't no point of running away again, he will just end up finding me. What if he's here right now. I'm alone and dabi would never know. I get up from bed and look at the time. I layed there thinking for a half hour, time sure Flys by. I walk across the hall like a little kid would during a thunderstorm to get to their parents. I creaked open his door just a little to see if he was awake but he was laying on his side eyes closed. While I was closing the door with a frown inheared him grumble and the bed shift. " get your ass in here instead of stalking me from the door." He voice was deeper then normal and to be honest kind of hot. I shook my head and stepped inside the door.
" sorry, I just diddnt want to sleep alone. " I whispered fiddling with my fingers still standing just inside the door. " comer here." He said softly opening up his arms. I smiled softly as I made my way to the bed and soon into his arms. I got under the blankets and cuddled up to his chest. As soon as I was comfortable dabi let his arms down and wrapped them around me. He has pretty long arms and its comforting being held so close. Not to mention he's always super warm, almost like a heater or somthing. But I guess it could be because of his quirk.

" dabi?"

"Hmm?"

" do you think we will be ok?"

" no matter what in the end it will turn out fine. So don't worry about it."

" dabi?"

" yes?"

" I love you."

" I love you to, now go to bed."

The sad truth is that I do love him. It scares me, it really dose. I dont know how to love without hurting someone. And everytime i ever had loved somthing or someone they either got hurt or it got ripped away from me. hopefully dabi and I will last.
