⚠️warning: there will be manga spoilers about Dabi in this chapter, I'm not following the main plot of the manga but things will be spoiled about his backstory. you've been warned

Once the photography team arrived, it was straight to work.

First was to model your dress. You were already quite an awkward person and having to pose still in a room full of 20 people definitely didn't help with that.

You posed in front of a orange background because apparently it
"Went well with the dress" said the head photographer, Hugo.

He was a tall lanky man dressed in all designer clothes and he had a very thick French accent.

"Cmon you too get in frame."
He said.

You and hawks stood up and walked into the frame and stood awkwardly next to each other.

"We'll hurry up pose"
He said annoyed.

"Pose like what?"
Asked hawks.

"Ya know a couple, kiss or something cute. The readers with LOVE to see hawks' new girlfriend they'll go dingue!.  (Crazy in French).

"W-were not a couple sir"
You Said gesturing to the both of you.

"Well then act like it. I didn't come here to film two platonic people!"

"Alright"
Said hawks. He leant down to your height and whispered to you
"How do we act couple-y?"

"Beats me"
You replied.

The next half an hour was spent with you and hawks posing. 

He kissed your hand for one shot while you adjusted his vest for another.

Overall as you can guess, it was a pretty awkward experience. Though hawks new exactly what to do to act in love, you were practically clueless.

Despite your awkwardness, Hugo managed to get a good amount of decent photos.

"Kay, Kay, this'll do. The photos will be on the cover by next months addition. Now  everyone"
He said motioning to his film team
"Come, we must leave now"
And they left

"Ahh great job you too!"
Said alisha.
"I could almost believe you too we're actually in love rather than that you met only a few days ago.

"Yea so did I"
Said hawks.

"Okay you guy are free to change and go home and rest, you deserve it"

You too walked off into the dressing room.

You turned to hawks and adjusted his vest a little, fiddling with the buttons, very similar to the scene Hugo made you act out for the shots but this time it wasn't staged.

"Ya know I'm gonna miss this vest, looks great on you"
You said.

"Same here. Might have to were it to my next award ceremony, which by the way you have to accompany me too since I did this photo shoot with you"
He paused and moved a lock of your curled hair off your shoulder.
"I'm gonna miss this dress too, you look beautiful."

"I think your too into character, loverboy"
You chuckled.
"Cmon go get changed, I want us to go get some lunch"

"It's a date"

he disappeared behind the screen and changed back into his original choice of clothes.

Once he was done, you changed back into your more comfortable clothes and you both headed out of the building towards the closest fast food lunch place.
————————————————-

The next month went by fast for you and hawks.

You both became closer, well closer than you were after only a few days. There were a few more dates at more secluded spots to avoid rude fans again. He also slept over at your house a couple more times and this time it wasn't because he was unconscious on the side of the road, bleeding out or it was too late to get a taxi, it was because you two were friends.

A month after your professional photo shoot, you were stepping into the elevator that led up to hawks' penthouse apartment. In your hand was a grocery bag full of vegetables and fruits, meats and cooking supplies. Why? You may ask. Well hawks is an unhealthy pig. You've been to his penthouse many times and each time you've offered to make dinner and everytime the fridge is empty.

Apparently this man lives off microwave meals or he delivers unhealthy takeaway to his house. It's very questionable how he manages to stay in such great shape with the diet of a depressed old man.

Once the elevator dinged to the top floor you stepped out and pulled out hawks' spare hey from your pocket. You unlocked the door and walked inside before locking it again.

As you walked towards the kitchen you noticed a tall man with black hair, looking through the top cupboards. You almost dropped the bag full of food onto the ground.

The man noticed your presence and  turned around. Only then did you noticed the purple scars, most likely from skin graphs, that lined his face, neck, arms and legs. This time you actually dropped the bag. Not because of the scars on his face but because you recognised him.

His name was dabi? At least that's what he introduced himself to the media. He was a criminal. A criminal that everyone thought was captured by the police. It was on the news a year ago.

Breaking news!: known arsonist, DABI, from the league of villains, has been seen fighting his father as it was revealed, Endeavour, in the middle of a busy street. Endeavour received a serious burn to his face and many other injuries but his son who was believed to be dead,
Touya Todoroki, escaped.

The news article flashed through your head as the man stared back at you.

"W-what are you doing here"

"Who are you? Ah wait you must be that hot chick he has been hanging around recently that he won't shut up about. He wasn't lying though, your hot as hell."
He took notice to the bag on the floor which had some of the contest spilled everywhere.
"Great you bought food. Big bird has like no food here"
He walked over and picked up the bag, rummaging through it to find a suitable snack which he ended up settling on a bag of chips.

For a escaped arsonist, he doesn't seem very evil. You thought.

"So are you like hiding out here or something?"
You asked.

"Hm, yes and no. I'm sure you're aware that I am a wanted criminal, well big bird and I go waaaay back and sometimes I just come here to hang out until he gets back from work. Better than the streets"

"Friends? Wow a wanted criminal and a record breaking hero are besties. That's make a great plot line for some corny tv series."
You stated.

He chuckled.
"Looks like your a funny one. You work at some low budget comedy show or something?"

"If you mean what do I do for employment, I'm a designer, not a comedian. There add that to your profile"

Just as dabi was about reply with a snarky comment like "a photo of you in some sexy outfit would look great in my profile"

Hawks walked in the door.

"Angel! Are you home guess what? The magazine publ-"
He cut himself off when he noticed the two of you, who were never meant to meet, having a conversation in the middle of his kitchen.

"Touya! What did I say about you not coming here on fridays anymore!"

"I wanted to see if you had food! Instead I found your hot ass housewife"

"I am not his house wife, you beef jerky liking arsonist"

"Hey!"
