ICARUS - Hawks x Reader

TWENTY EIGHT: Four

"Why is your wife staring at me like that..?" Endeavor glared at me with sceptical eyes as we walked along the street, with me sandwiched between the top two pros.
"I'm not deaf, ya know..." I huffed, still straining my neck to study his face. After everything Hawks had told me about Todoroki Enji, I couldn't help but try to see past that brawny exterior.

From stats to rumours about the man's home life, my husband had disclosed it all. I wanted to form my own opinions of the flame hero first hand.
"She's probably just intimidated! Right, precious wife of mine?~" Hawks chuckled, slinging his arm over my shoulders. Immediately shrugging him off, I rolled my eyes, shifting a little closer to the flaming tank.
"As if. Maybe I'm already sick of married life?"

I enjoyed the amused laughter that erupted from my husband, glad to see that our banter was still a highlight in his life.
"You two really are sickening..." Endeavor sighed, though it was obvious that he didn't really mean it. There was a touch of jealousy to his gravelly tone, and I kind of pitied the guy. "Anyway, aren't we almost there? I want to get this over and done with."

Hawks pointed ahead, up the street, to the tallest skyscraper. Smiling, he turned to look up at the behemoth hero, casually grabbing hold of my hand as he did so.
"Yup! Right up there! The very top! We can get to work the second our asses hit the seats!" He pulled me into his side, letting his feathers tickle the exposed nape of my neck. "Then, when we're done, I'm yours 'til the midnight hours..."

Yeah...until your hero gig that I'm not important enough to know about...

"Well, I guess I'll head off and look around. You boys don't get into too much trouble, yeah?" A swift kiss to my husband's cheek and a pat on Endeavor's tree trunk of an arm, and I was already several paces back in the opposite direction.
"Waaaaaaaait!" I yelped as Hawks' fave appeared from above, his nose literally skimming my own. "Aren't you forgetting something?"

Pursing my lips, my brow raised in thought.
"Hmmm, let's see...Kissed your chubby-ass cheek, check. Politely said goodbye to the lumbering fire hazard, check...Can't say I'm forgetting anything..?" Before I knew it, my eyes were level with the zipper of his pants, upside down and certainly startling, especially in public. Though, before I had the chance to lose my actual shit, I felt his hands against my stomach.

"Dada loves you, lil' lady!~" He cooed affectionately, attracting a few too many stares from pedestrians. "Remember what we talked about? Don't give mama gas, and don't kick her too hard! I'll tell you lots of fun stories about Uncle Enji and Uncle BJ when we get back to the hotel, yeah? I miss you already!"

Is it possible to fall in double love?

A soft giggle escaped my lips as his face returned to mine, smiling brightly like the sun he claimed I was. If anybody resembled that glowing orb of warmth, it was him.
"Call me when you're done." I sighed, glad that I actually knew where he was going to be for once.
"I'll make it quick, I promise." Kissing upside down wasn't exactly a new experience for us, but it was still one hell of a challenge. Even with most of his affection hitting my chin rather than my mouth, I couldn't have been happier.

I had never been to Kyushu before, but it didn't seem that much different from home. Same kinds of stores, same kinds of people, but it was still a breath of fresh air.

I wonder if Hawks will want to move to an actual house once bubba is born..?

Back when I still thrived off of hopes and dreams, I had imagined living in a cosy little house in the suburbs, with my dear husband, a couple of beautiful children, and a fluffy golden Labrador. Now, those fantasies I had given up on didn't seem so far fetched.
