Warmth
You pack everything up, peering out the window briefly. "Alright. You ready?" You ask him.
"Um... I can't fill out everything." He sends you a frown. You blink and go to his side, looking over the release form.
"It's okay. I know the rest." You breathe, starting to walk him through it. As you finish, he stops to look at you quietly. You pause and glance at him. "Something wrong?"
"... You really know me." He murmurs. You blink, meeting his gaze and feeling yourself blush.
"Uh... Well, yeah w-we grew up together remember?" You manage. He blinks and nods thoughtfully.
"I wonder if I know a lot about you too..." He breathes with a small smile.
"Huh... Now I'm curious. It would really weird if it were just me..." You scratch your cheek. Your phone goes off and you check it to find a message from Kuroo. "Alright. Let's go Sakusa." You hum, taking his hand and guiding him out and down to the main floor. It was a bit crowded down here, Sakusa moves closer to your side, hand tightening around yours.
"Too many..." He grumbles.
"That's okay Sakusa just real quick." You rub his arm as you lead him out and for the dorms. "Heh. That part hasn't changed." You comment. He gives you a confused look. "You never liked crowds." You tell him.
"Must be instinct then." He muses as you peer about, casually.
"Yeah. Instinct is a pretty strong thing." You smile. "Get down Sakusa." You add suddenly. He drops down and you turn about, swinging your leg up to catch a villain in the face as he dove at Sakusa. "No touch."
"Burster!" Dante roars coming from the shadows and pointing at you. You dive out of the way as his quirk rips through the side of your shirt. Your right hand touches the ground and you burst the diameter around you, swiftly grabbing Sakusa's hand and pulling him along quickly.
"Time to go." You breathe as two different colored fireballs go past. "I'll leave them to you guys." You call.
"Oh don't ya worry. We'll be sure to thank them properly." Oikawa hums as he and Iwaizumi walk past you two. Sakusa pauses as he looks back, your dorm mates surrounding the villain's that had ambushed you. Dante peers about uneasily, suddenly pointing at you again but Oikawa's chains wrap around his wrist and toss him into the air.
"I have another question." Sakusa murmurs, looking at you uneasily.
"Don't worry. We're heroes fighting bad guys is kinda our thing." You chuckle. He blinks at you in awe.
"... Me too?" He tilts his head.
"Yep. You're super cool too. Unstoppable usually." You grin, he blushes a bit and smiles, watching as the villains are swiftly apprehended by your dorm mates.
"Shit. What happened to this guy? Did we take his eye?" Kuroo huffs looking at Dante.
"Just fuckin kill me! Midnight will soon enough!" Dante shouts.
"Oh no. That'd be a waste of information." Oikawa shakes his head. The police come to the area, and while there's a switch over in authority, a black puddle of water surrounds Dante and swiftly drags him away from the scene. The police chase after him, ordering your group back to the dorms.
"Damn. Should've made another tracker for that guy." Akaashi mutters.
"Eh, we thought we had him this time." Bokuto pats his shoulder.
"You two okay?" Iwaizumi asks you and Sakusa.
"Yes." You both answer.
"Good. ___, that was a great kick there." Iwaizumi praises.
"Thanks. I've been working on my combat." You grin.
"Still can't beat me though." Atsumu smirks.
"Shut it." You push him with your left hand playfully. "Oh, anyone got a glove. I kinda burst mine back there." They all offer you one, making you pause and chuckle, taking one from Osamu and slipping it on. "Thanks Osamu."
"No problem. Did you two eat?" He responds. Sakusa pauses, blinking at him.
"You're Osamu?" Sakusa asks him.
"Yeah. Good to see you well." Osamu gives him a nod. Sakusa smiles a bit and hugs him, making everyone freeze in shock while Osamu gets paralyzed.
"Thank you for the food." Sakusa says, pulling away.
"Um... Sakusa. I'm the only one who's immune to your paralysis touch." You tell him quietly.
"Oh. Right. Sorry for paralyzing you Osamu." Sakusa frowns guilty.
"Wait. Why are you immune?" Atsumu questions.
"Because despite his warnings I couldn't keep my hands off of him...." They all give you looks at that. "Wait no. That came out weird."
"So we just gotta touch him alot?" Nishinoya concludes moving closer.
"Guys, no. No touch." You hold out an arm in front of Sakusa.
"Come on. You know this is our only chance. Sakusa would never let us if he gets his memories back." Nishinoya chuckles.
"That's exactly why I'm saying no touch. It's not right to take advantage of his current situation." You huff.
"You know. I'm just now seeing how protective of Sakusa you are." Ryuu comments.
"Just now? ___'s always protective of Sakusa." Atsumu points out and you feel yourself blush.
"I always thought it was the other way around." Ryuu points out.
"I think it's both." Oikawa states.
"... Shut up! Everyone inside." You tell them.
"Aww. ___ is so pink." Nishinoya chuckles hugging you. "You're so cute."
"L-Let's just get inside." You manage and everyone heads onto campus and into the dorms. "Alright Sakusa, let's get you to your room. You send him a smile.
"Okay." He nods following you upstairs and into his room. You pause as you look at his nearly empty shelf.
"Damn, they really took a lot..." You frown pulling down the notebook that was on top of the shelf. You take a pen from his desk as you open the notebook. You start to count them quietly, Sakusa peers over your shoulder at the notebook.
"What's this?" He asks.
"You use this notebook to keep track of your vials. You have everything categorized too." You tell him, jotting down the numbers. You sigh and lean back a bit feeling his warmth radiating against your back. "According to this we're missing at least thirty vials. Two of which contained the black poison...."
"That sounds really bad." He says distractedly with a frown, arms moving to pull you closer.
"It is, you haven't found an antidote for that one." You sigh, pausing when you're gently pulled into him. His arms hesitantly wrap around you and he lowers his head to peer at you quietly. "U-um... Are you feeling okay?" You ask carefully, feeling yourself blush a bit.
"Yeah. I'm sorry if this bothers you. I couldn't stop myself." He murmurs, eyes boring into you. "You keep turning pink are you alright?"
"Y-Yeah, I'm just... Uh... Not used to this from you." You manage.
"You don't like it?" He breathes.
"I-I didn't say that." You reply, looking to the side. He touches your chin, turning your face to him. He observes your face quietly, his other arm tightening around you as he leans in a bit.
"___, what am I to you?" He whispers. You blush more, meeting his gaze.
"Y-You... You're..." You couldn't really articulate a response as your mind whirls into chaos.
'Should just kiss him.'
'No. That's taking advantage of him.'
'He won't be happy when his memory returns.'
'But I want to...'
'What if it goes bad? Don't traumatize him.'
You press your forehead to his, closing your eyes. "You're so important to me... But I need you to let me go. I can't think like this." You breathe. He blinks and pouts, releasing you.
"Okay. Sorry... You're so warm I wanted to hold you for a bit." He murmurs, rubbing his arm with a light blush. You turn to him and smile a bit.
'He's really bad for my heart right now.' You think. "Okay. I guess we can hug for a bit longer. But then we need to discuss your sleeping arrangements." You tell him before hugging him and nuzzling his chest happily. He blinks before returning the hug with a smile.
"Can't I sleep in your room?" He breathes.
"I'm already sharing my room with the twins. But if you want. I can sleep in here for now." You tell him, peering up at his face.
"Yes. That's what I want." He nods quickly. You chuckle a bit.
"You really warmed up to me fast." You tease. He blinks and blushes slightly smiling a bit.
"Of course. You were with me when I woke up. You've been really kind even though you're sad. And I... I feel so warm when you're nearby." He smiles widely. "I really like you ___." You blush heavily at that, taking a step back and covering your face. "... ___?"
"You're bad for my heart right now..." You mutter.
"What? I'm sorry I didn't understand that." He tilts his head.
"Kiyoomi..." You uncover your face to give him a look.
"... I really like that too." He breathes, pink kissing his cheeks. Dammit Sakusa.
"Okay... You need to go bond with everyone while I make an area to sleep." You turn him around and nudge him out the door before taking him downstairs to the living room where most of the others were hanging out. "Hey guys, hang out with Sakusa for a bit okay?" You nudge Sakusa forward before rushing upstairs.
"Um... Everything okay?" Kuroo looks at Sakusa confused.
"I think so... It's okay if ___ keeps turning pink right?" Sakusa asks with a head tilt.
"Yeah I think so too." Kuroo chuckles.
"So Sakusa..." Atsumu leans toward him. "How are you feeling?"
"... I think... I'm happy?" Sakusa smiles thoughtfully. "Why are you close? Do you want a hug?" He opens his arms to him. Atsumu freezes and steps back.
"N-No, that's fine." Atsumu assures him.
"What's wrong?" Sakusa frowns.
"You two.... Don't get along normally." Osamu informs.
"Really? I'm sorry then." Sakusa drops his arms.
"It's alright... We can be friends until you remember... I guess." Atsumu gives an awkward smile.
"Really? I'd like that. You seem really cool too." Sakusa smiles widely. Atsumu shifts at that, frowning uneasily.
"Excuse." Atsumu breathes before going out and running up the stairs. "___!"
"... He doesn't like me huh?" Sakusa pouts at the others.
"... He's just a little freaked out. You're the exact opposite of how you usually are." Kuroo informs.
"Oh? So... You guys don't want to be friends..?" Sakusa murmurs.
"... I'm hugging him!" Nishinoya suddenly says going over and hugging Sakusa.
"I'm with ya. Sakusa, you're awesome no matter what." Ryuu says also hugging him. Sakusa blinks in surprise before giving a soft laugh, stunning the others.
"Please tell me someone's recording this..." Daichi murmurs.
"I am..." Kenma whispers.
"What a cute laugh... We'll never hear it again when he remembers." Oikawa sniffs.
"Pull yourself together, dorm president." Kuroo passes him a tissue.
"I wanna hug Sakusa too! Noya, Ryuu move already." Bokuto gasps.
"They're paralyzed Bokuto-san." Akaashi reminds him.
"Oh right. I'll just move them then." Bokuto picks up the two before setting them to the side. "Sakusa, you don't remember me but I'm Bokuto." He gives a grin before giving Sakusa a big hug, earning a chuckle from the other.
Meanwhile, Atsumu had come in to help you set up a sleeping area. "Are you sure that's Sakusa?" He whispers.
"Yes it's him. He just... Doesn't remember himself. So he doesn't feel the need to be a cactus..." You respond, stopping briefly. "I like how warm he is right now. But... I really miss my cactus." You rub at your eyes. Atsumu blinks at you.
"I... Miss him too. This plushie cactus kinda freaks me out." He breathes hugging you tightly. You chuckle at that, hugging him back.
"Alright, let's go get him." You breathe, pulling away. He nods and you both start back downstairs. You reach the living room to find almost everyone frozen in place. "... Dammit guys. I told you not to." You sigh.
"Even Osamu and Oikawa..." Atsumu huffs. "Bro, you were just paralyzed."
"I'm sorry ___." Sakusa frowns guilty.
"It's not your fault. They knew what they were doing... Gotta say though... It's really cute that they did it." You grin. "It just shows how much you mean to everyone here." Sakusa blinks at you, turning pink and tearing up slightly.
"Really?" He whispers.
"Is he about to cry...?" Atsumu gasps quietly to you. You both exchange a look before going over and giving Sakusa a tight hug. "Yeah. We got ya." Atsumu manages before he can't move again.
"I feel weird." Sakusa rubs his eyes.
"Heh. I think you just felt something new is all. Come on... Let's go back to your room." You guide him back upstairs. "I'll be right back, take a shower and get ready for bed okay?" You tell him.
"Yes." He nods and goes in. You hurry downstairs giving all the paralyzed dorm mates a kiss on the cheek.
"Thank you guys. Have a good night." You grin before going upstairs to your room to shower and change for bed. You return to Sakusa's room and knock lightly. He opens the door, holding a hand over his mouth, eyes glazed in pain. "What's wrong? Did you trip?" You gasp.
"They hurt," He uncovers his mouth, fangs dripping with venom.
"Oh! I know how to fix that." You tell him, closing the door behind yourself, "Sit on the chair." You take him to the desk, having him sit down. You sit on the desk, opening a drawer to take out two empty vials. You put on some gloves before placing a hand behind his head to lean his head back and in place as you put the vial to his gang to steadily work the venom out.
He twitches slightly, pink coming over his face. "You okay? Am I being too rough?" You murmur, pausing briefly.
"No... It feels really good." He manages, touching your hand.
'Oh my god this is different. I had no idea....' You blush heavily, trying to keep a straight face as you continue. This was oddly soothing though, and the face he kept making was really cute. You finish both fangs and look at the vials. "That was a lot... No wonder you were in pain..."
"Thank you." He sighs touching his cheek, still blushing lightly as he looks down.
"Anytime. Let me know if they start to ache again okay?" You tell him, putting lids on the vials before checking his mini fridge and passing him a drink. "You alright?"
"Mhm." He hums taking the drink and opening it, taking a few sips. "You really know what to do..." He murmurs. He shifts and looks up at you. "Why did we fight? You don't seem mad about anything."
"I'm not mad at you. I was just... Maybe we both were frustrated. You're always stubborn and cautious because of how dangerous your quirk is. And I just got reckless." You rub your neck. "Then I got selfish and stubborn and made you mad."
"... You're not saying a lot... What aren't you telling me?" He asks, frowning softly. You meet his gaze before giving a sad smile.
"I can't tell you now." You hum before kissing his forehead. "Lets go to sleep." You add before climbing onto the futon. He touches his forehead before peering at you and turning off the light. He moves to the bed, but he seemed restless now. You sit up and move to the side of the bed. "Wanna hold my hand?"
"No... I wanna hold you." He murmurs, peering at you. "... Please? Just until I fall asleep?" You blush lightly and climb into bed, moving under the covers and cuddling up to him.
"Okay." You breathe. He pulls in against him and hums in content, forehead pressing against yours as he closes his eyes and starts to drift off. This felt like cruel and unusual punishment, having to restrain yourself to this extent. He was so cute, so careless. You peer at his lips silently, frowning heavily. Just one kiss would be fine right? He wouldn't know.
You move closer, kissing his lips softly. He hums, lips moving against yours just as softly. Damn Damn Damn. You pull back a bit, restraint thinning further. You turn away from him, blushing a bit as you silently scold yourself. His dark eyes peek open and he watches your back, touching his lips briefly before moving closer to you, arms wrapping around your waist as he nuzzles your shoulder, pressing a soft kiss to it.
"Goodnight ___." He breathes. You freeze and blush heavily at that.
'Dammit Sakusa...'

"Failed again huh? You're pretty useless." Tendo chuckles with a strained smile.
"Fuck you. Where's Midnight?" Dante questions.
"He might be here." Tendo shrugs.
"Alright, then before he kills me. I get to kill you." Dante sneers, moving to point at him but a bluish blade leaves Tendo's sweater sleeve, and flashes out, severing his fingers. Dante cries out, holding his hand, looking at the blade in shock.
"You can't kill me Dante. It's not in your future." Tendo sighs tipping his chin up with the blade. "Why did you have to be so useless? So smart and yet so easy to kill." Tendo's gaze darkens. "And I told you not to go after ___." He frowns before moving his arm suddenly, slashing open Dante's throat.
"... You know, I coulda just offed him, boss..." Death says standing nearby.
"I won't feel better unless I do it myself." Tendo responds, cleaning off the blade. "I'm getting impatient for some reason... I wish I could bring back Bloody Horizon... But we're still testing their memories..." He frowns to himself, looking away. "Maybe I should go visit ___ tomorrow... I might be able to think of a way to get Sakusa and brainwash him. It's too late to convince him. Never took them long before after all."
"Wouldn't it just be easier to kill 'im?" Death huffs.
"Yes. But that future ends in catastrophe. This is still a bit more certain." Tendo takes off his blood splattered hoodie, the black and purple armor beneath glinting against the light. He tosses the hoodie into a flame barrel and hums. "Maybe I'll take ___ clothes shopping."
"My former partners will be here tomorrow night." Death hums.
"I know. I've already seen them and analyzed their abilities. Thanks to you, the future's looking bright again." Tendo sends him a smile. "So glad mom sent you my way."
"I see. Guess I shouldn't be surprised by that. I suppose I'll head home now. You have a goodnight boss, and try ta sleep. Yer friend will worry if they see ya like that." Death says before the black water covers Dante, tinting red before washing away and leaving no evidence as he heads out.
Tendo looks at the spot where Dante had bled out before snickering to himself. "What an awesome quirk." He whispers before taking a selfie. "Oof... I do look bad. Time to head back." He hums deleting it and leaving as well. One of his eyes light up and he hums before frowning a bit. "Tomorrow is going to be tough..."
