The elevator doors opened, and I walked down the hallway with a big bag of greasy food for when Hawks woke up. I opened the door, and instantly heard loud sobbing.

"Hawks?" I called out as I shut the door. I watched his head pop up over the back of the couch, and he looked panicked.

"Kid!" He screamed and jumped over the couch, and ran at me. He tackled me to the ground in a giant bear hug, and buried his face in my neck. "I thought you left! I thought you were leaving me! Please don't leave me! I know I'm an asshole! I know I've hurt you! But please don't fucking leave me!" He sobbed into my neck.

"Hawks, I'm not leaving." I told him, and he hugged me tighter.

"Please don't trick me." He begged me, and I managed to sit us both up. "I need you! I know I haven't been treating you right, but I fucking need you in my life!"

"Hawks, I'm not going anywhere." I told him. "That wasn't part of the deal, I would only leave if you won. But you lost. Quite terribly, might I add." I couldn't help but feel a little cocky, even though I cheated.

"How did you even do that?" He asked me, but he didn't pull away from my chest. "You're only sixteen, how did you manage to do that many shots? How'd you even get your hands on alcohol?"

"Okay, well first off." I said and was very glad I had lies in mind before all of this. "The alcohol was yours. And two, I'm in high school, you think I haven't had practice?"

"You drink?" He asked and pulled away from me.

"And so do you, terribly." I joked and got off the floor, I didn't have to worry much about faking me being drunk or hungover with me being a natural clutz. I pulled him up to his feet as well and he followed close behind me into the kitchen. I got a glass of water out, and handed it to Hawks along with some pain meds.

He almost collapsed three times now that he wasn't panicking and didn't have adrenaline running through his body.

"Go sit down on the couch." I told him. "I'll bring you the food." He nodded and walked into his living room as I got some of the food on plates and made some coffee for Hawks.

Bringing the plates into the living room, he looked upset as he sat on the floor. I set them down on the coffee table.

I went to walk back into the kitchen, but something wrapping around my leg almost tripped me.

"Hawks, I promise I'm not going anywhere." I sighed and half turned as he buried his face in my hip. He whined and held my leg tighter. I ran my fingers through his hair, and he relaxed a little. "Please let go." He whined a little more. "You're such a baby." I laughed at him and yanked my leg away from him.

I grabbed the coffee that had just finished brewing, and poured him a nice big cup. Taking it back into the living room, and handing it too Hawks. Hawks had a face full of food and looked a bit embarrassed.

He hadn't eaten much in the past couple of weeks. But I was so glad that me smacking my head off of a chair leg, was enough to get him back into a somewhat normal routine.

"So what-?" Hawks started to ask me with a mouth full of food, but I cut him off.

"Chew first." I told him, and handed him a napkin. He finished chewing, and swallowed his food and took a drink to wash it down.

"So what is it that I have to do?" He asked, finishing his sentence.

"Tomorrow, I will be taking two weeks off of school." I told him. "Mr. Aizawa is going to be coming to pick us up to take us somewhere. When we get there, you are to not ask any questions."

"You're really prepared for this." Hawks commented and kept eating, while I searched through the channels on the TV to find something to watch.

"I was determined." I told him, and smiled. Hoping that Hawks wouldn't ask any more questions about it at least until the deed was done. Although I have a feeling he won't mind me cheating too much in the long run, since he didn't want me leaving in the first place.
