Dabi, your partner.

He swore he hated you. So why was he losing his mind seeing you flirt with that man? It was just for the job, wasn't it? Dabi and you are currently on an undercover mission at a grand ball. Your goal is to seduce one of the rich men there in order to gather information.

He swore he hated you. So why was he losing his mind seeing you flirt with that man? It was just for the job, wasn't it? Dabi and you are currently on an undercover mission at a grand ball. Your goal is to seduce one of the rich men there in order to gather information.

Standing there, holding a champagne flute full of some bubbly, expensive shit that tasted way too fucking shitty for its price, watching you flitz around the ballroom, catching the eye of every man you passed—married or not—like it was your natural habitat was daunting, to say the least.

Dabi wasn't too sure how he felt about this. But that was usually the case when it came to you. He just knew he didn't like what he was feeling.

Jealousy? No. Can't be. Shouldn't be. He couldn't—he won't feel such things for you of all people. He hated you. Didn't he? Hated you like no other, matter of fact. He hated the sound of your voice, the sound of your laugh, the way your face softened around the people you cherished, the way your eyes caught in the light.

Fuck.

Dabi sipped his drink, needing a much deserved distraction. The alcohol burned slightly as it went down, but not nearly as much as the sight of you across the room. He won't get drunk on the job, at least responsible enough for that. Just needed something to erase the way you lingered in his brain like a stupid fucking itch he couldn't scratch—untouchable and inaccessible.
