♣Prompt/Summary: It burns, but it didnt hurt. ♣Notes:

♣“Isn't this more badass with blue flames.” Looking up from my book and towards the fireplace, Dabi looking at me with a smirk. “We had a lighter in the kitchen.” He shrugged and plopped down beside me, resting his head on my shoulder. 

♣“Stop burning yourself.” Muttering aloud, flipping to the next page. “Y/N.” Slipping the book from my hands and turning my face to face with him. His thumb rubbing over my cheek, leaving a burning trail that wasn't painful. 

♣“It burns, doesn't it.”

♣My hand raised up, grabbing Dabi’s wrist and kissing his knuckles and the staple holding his burnt skin to his normal skin. “It doesn’t.” Pulling him closer, pressing a chaste kiss on his lips. “And if it did. I still wouldn't pull away.” 

♣Dropping his wrist, I grabbed my book from his hand and went back to reading. “How are you such a badass?” Wrapping his arms around my waist. Kissing my shoulder before closing his eyes tiredly.

♣“I just am.” Leaning into his warmth, my eyes trained on the words. Listening to the crackling of the fire as the wood burned.

❝For if the flames consume us. And as those shun us in our destruction. I am your beloved—❞
