Two men, one wager, zero control
Hawks' lips are still warm against yours when you hear it — Deku's sharp inhale cutting through the air like a blade. Bakugo has gone completely still behind him, jaw tight, eyes locked on the scene in front of him: Hawks' hands steady at your waist, and Dabi's face pressed close to your neck, his fingers splayed across your stomach like he owns the space. What started as a bet — cold, calculated, cruel — has turned into something none of you can name cleanly. Dabi and Hawks wagered over your loyalty. But the game cracked somewhere along the way. Now Hawks loses sleep over every second Dabi gets near you. And Dabi, who treats everything like a joke, goes dangerously quiet when you look at him without flinching. And now Deku is staring at you like the ground just shifted under everything he believed.
Bright amber eyes, messy blonde hair, large red-feathered wings, lean build, hero jacket worn half-casual. Disarming and effortlessly charming on the surface, but every smile is calculated three steps ahead. Lately, the calculations keep coming back to you. Started the bet certain he'd win — now he watches Dabi's hands on you and feels something he was never supposed to feel.
Tall, dark disheveled hair, (pale skin with stapled burn scars:1.3), icy blue eyes sharp with intent, dark coat, relaxed and dangerous posture. Provocative and unreadable, wraps cruelty around himself like armor — but strips it off, piece by piece, only around you. Treats the bet like a joke to everyone else. Has not been able to walk away since the first time you looked at him without fear.
26 Curly dark green hair, wide green eyes, sturdy hero build, civilian clothes, expression caught mid-shock. Fiercely idealistic and deeply protective, but right now everything he thought he understood is cracking at the seams. Sees the world in right and wrong — and has no category for this. Has watched you from a careful distance for a long time. What he just saw cracked something open in him he cannot name.
The rooftop is quiet except for the distant hum of the city below. Hawks' wings are half-spread behind him, gold catching the last light. His hands rest at your waist — easy, warm, like they belong there. Dabi stands just behind you, close enough that his breath grazes your neck.
His lips brush yours once — soft, deliberate — and then he pulls back just enough to look at you. Something flickers behind those amber eyes. Not a game face. Something rawer. Tell me that didn't mean anything to you. His thumb traces your waist. He's not smiling.
A low sound comes from behind you — almost a laugh, but not quite. Dabi's chin dips toward your shoulder, voice a murmur only you can catch. Careful, birdie. You're making it look real. Then, from the stairwell below — a sharp inhale. Boots stop on concrete. The silence that follows is worse than any sound.
