A/N: Just something soft for a tumblr request

It was just one of those nights again. Keigo wasn't home, but you were pretty used to that. You didn't even really officially live together, but he did spend almost all his free time at your place. Since he wasn't allowed to have personal relationships, you couldn't be seen in public together. You had no doubt in your mind that the safety commission was well aware of the two of you, but they had decided to ignore it, at least for the time being. If you ever became a liability though, you were sure they would try to get rid of without hesitation.

"Babe!" came a voice and a knock from behind the closed window.

You were quite startled, even though you knew exactly who it was behind your fifth floor window. You opened the window and Keigo flew in. Somehow though, he managed to trip on the edge of the carpet as he landed and ended up upside down against the couch, with a cloud of feathers from the impact.

"You're a klutz" you chuckled and watched as he got up and tucked his wings properly behind his back.

"I'll have you know, the only time I'm a klutz is when I'm around you. I guess it's got something to do with the fact that I feel safe with you" he grinned widely.

"That's nice to hear, but you won't change my mind about the fact that you've clumsy as hell. At least when you're not on hero duty" you smiled back and stepped closer to him, which made him automatically put his hands on your hips.

"I've missed you, we haven't seen each other in almost a week" Keigo said apologetically.

"I know, but don't worry about it, I know you're busy with work" you said, but your smile faded a bit.

"I do worry about it. I don't want you to be alone and I really enjoy spending time with you" Keigo said with a serious tone.

"I enjoy spending time with you too, but I also know the work you do is incredibly important" you said and placed a gentle kiss on his lips.

"Not as important as you are to me" he said and in turn kissed you.

"I appreciate you saying that, but... I'm starving and I ordered delivery a while ago so it should be here any minute now, so you can sweet talk me all you want after we've eaten. Sound good?" you rambled, a bit flustered by what he had just said.

"Sure?" Keigo said, a bit stunned by your sudden change of subject.

Keigo threw his jacket on the couch and you started eating and talking about how the last few days had been for the both of you. Keigo had been busy with work as usual, just flying around and sleeping very little. He looked like it too now that he mentioned being tired.

"You really should try to get some more rest, you know"

"I know, but I don't really have the time"

"Well you have time now, don't you?" you smiled.

"I guess" he shrugged.

When the two of you were done eating you did the dishes together, which turned into a bit of a splash war. When you were done with the dishes, you sat down on the couch. Keigo laid down on the couch with his head on your lap.

"I'm sorry for changing the subject earlier, but I didn't really know what to say to you when you told me how much I meant to you" you said, looking down at his tired face.

"It's okay, I know how you feel about me, and I just wanna say, I'm madly in love with you"

"Keigo...I love you too" you said softly.

He just grinned at you and grabbed your hand, kissing the back of your palm.

He looked at you with a very soft expression, and the only thing you could see in his eyes was immense affection for you. You shook your head with a smile on your face, and said: "You really need to sleep, you look like crap"

"Hey!" he protested, still with a small grin.

"You're going to sleep, you don't need to go to bed, you can just sleep right there" you announced.

"Fineeeeee" he rolled his eyes over-dramatically.

It didn't take long at all for him to drift off. You were gently petting his hair and when you were sure he was asleep, you started talking quietly about how much you loved him and how happy he made you.

Hawks had a good poker face, and once again it came in handy. He was pretending to be asleep, knowing you had a habit of talking to him when you thought he was sleeping. He had a real hard time keeping a sleeping face while you talked to him. Even if you were a bit bad at expressing your feelings to him when he was awake, you seemed to have no trouble doing that when you thought he was asleep. He loved you so much, and he was glad you felt the same about him.
