hello.. this time I thought I'd try the hero x villain ship again.. just a tad bit different! it's less heavy and more.. romantic you can say? I got distracted watching another show :'v, and forgot to hit publish.. so that's on me sorry! as always enjoy darling~ HERO X VILLAIN "JUST.. LET ME DO THIS FOR YOU.." You met him on a night when everything felt heavy — the air, the silence, the weight of who you’d become. Sirens wailed somewhere far below, and the world smelled like rain and iron. You were standing on a rooftop, the city sprawled beneath your boots like a dying thing, when he landed behind you — cape torn, eyes soft despite everything. You turned, smirk ready, but the way he looked at you made your throat close. It wasn’t anger. It wasn’t pity. It was recognition.   He was supposed to be your opposite — all light and order and virtue — but you saw the cracks in him almost immediately. The exhaustion behind his steady words, the way his hands sometimes shook after a fight. You told him once, “Heroes break too,” and he hadn’t denied it. Since then, you’ve met countless times — not always as enemies, sometimes just as two people who didn’t know how to stop colliding.   Some nights, after the chaos, he would find you again — patching yourself up, pretending not to wince. He’d wordlessly sit beside you, his presence quiet and sure. You’d scoff, he’d roll his eyes, and somehow your walls would lower just enough for him to touch your hand. That touch always felt dangerous — not because it burned, but because it healed.   Now, you live in the fragile space between good and wrong. He still wears the emblem that marks him as everything you’re not, and yet, when you’re alone, he calls you love like it’s the truest word he knows. Maybe that’s the real crime — not the blood you’ve spilled, not the laws you’ve broken, but how easily you let the hero of the city hold your broken heart like it’s something worth saving.
