I return home after he meeting a little more tired than normal. Must be my lack of sleep, two shots of espresso should do it tomorrow right? If not I can get some Cola or Mountain Dew as a booster.

"Hi Azula!" Izuku smiles as I walk into our room. "Hi Izuku." I smile back, hoping he doesn't pick upon my extra tiredness, might sound a bit selfish. I just don't want Izu to worry anymore than he already does about me.

"How was the meeting?" Izu asks, yes I told him about this week's schedule but not any of the details. "It was alright, I mean we felt with everything with minimal issues so that's a bonus." I answer him, sitting down on the bed; Izuku, who was already on the bed, wraps me in a hug from behind. "Still stressing about the mission?" he asks,"Sho been teaching you how to read me hasn't he?" I ask as a joke before leaning back into him "A little, but it's almost over." 

"Really? That's good." Izu kiss my forehead. We stay like this for awhile, eventually, I fall asleep in his arms.

Wednesday:

"Good morning Azula-san." Iida greets me as I drive to the kitchen. "Morning Iida-kun." I give a brief smile before starting the coffee maker, then my hunt for the espresso shots Toya keeps. "Looking for this?" I turn to see Iida with the shots of espresso... "Ah, thank you Iida." I smile, hoping he's not doing what I think he is doing. I teach my hand out for it, but he keeps it out of my reach, which was pretty easy since he is noticeably taller than me. "How much sleep have you been getting?" he asks, holding the caffeine hostage. "Enough." I say, trying to get the shots without using my quirk. Very difficult, at least it's not Hawks, "If you are getting enough sleep then you don't need the extra caffeine." Iida scolds. 

"Never said it was the full enough, just enough not to look drunk or collapse: thus my justified need for the espresso."

"Then get more sleep."

"Easier said than fucking done Iida."

"What the hell is fucking going on?" Bakugo asks; "He won't give me the espresso." I answer, getting off my tippy-toes. "I am merely concern for your health Azula, you have been putting in a shot of espresso every morning for the pass few weeks." Iida informs us, "And I am fine." I mumble. Taking advantage of Iida's change in focus by leaping up and grabbing the espresso just in time for the coffee to be done.

"Now if you will excuse me, I am going to make sure that I stay awake until lunch." I turn around and make my coffee as usual but for going the half 'n' half before starting in on making breakfast. "How many shot?" Bakugo asks, I'm guessing he told Iida that he would take care of me. "Just two." I reply, holding up that many fingers.

"You are making it sound like you've had more at one time." he replies, grabbing some other things to make with what I was making. I give him a shrug "Considering I survived middle school with five Red Bulls then on the day of the entrance exam I got a coffee with seven or so shots of espresso." I chuckle at the memory "You should've seen how concern the cashier and Inasa were when I ordered. Then I drank it all before we got here!" man was I hyper during the exam, I think I actually responded to Mic's wish for more energy. "Why the hell did you need seven shots of espresso?" Bakugo asks, sounding very concern. 

"Cause six wouldn't cut it." I smile and I was up for five days straight. We finish cooking in silence and I finish my café de espresso before the rest of the class arrive, but while we were eating Iida was shaking his head slightly at me. Do I need to tell them the time I had seventeen shots and five Monsters in a seventy-two hour period? Even Toya was surprised that I was still alive, since just five shots of espresso can kill you, but I think that is for at one time and as is.

We go to school, neither Iida not Bakugo bringing up the espresso debate this morning on our way over to the main building. "Hello class." Aizawa-sensei says as he walks into class, "Good morning Sensei." we all reply as usual. "Today we are going to do a rescue simulation, so everyone gear up. We're going off campus for this." We are I instructed.

"I wonder what exactly we will be doing." Mina says, "And if we are going back to the USJ." Ochaco adds.

"Well, if we are going to the USJ and if we have a repeat of last time, I think we won't have much of a struggle since we are way more experience than last time." I say as I finish changing by putting my boots on. "You're right Azula." Asu nods "And if I remember correctly, you stood your own against that Nomu that Hawks and Endeavor were having a hard time with."

"I had just got there and was less worn compared to them and I was pissed."

"Either way, it was badass!" Toru says "Even though everyone was surprised and worried about you." I let out a huff "It was just me doing my job." I leave the locker room to where we will be waiting for the bus.

"Hanging in there Kiki?" Aizawa asks, I'm the first one out so we are alone. "For the most part." I sigh, tonight I will be at Dad's agency to speak with the evac team minus my peers, Toya will be finding out about him with the class, then tomorrow I'll be meeting at Hawks's agency to talk with the Villa team. I would've had it at Edgeshot's but Hawks barely go a way with going to Dad's since they are technically in a team up. Or at least that was the bird's excuse. Friday I won't be at any meetings until much later when I leave for the Mountain Villa. I'll be more able to talk with Toga there while making it sound like some liberation plans.

"Iida texted me his concerns about your caffeine intake." my teacher tells me off-handedly. "Well, not everyone can get away with sleeping in class, nor heavy sleepers." I shrug.

"Just make sure you don't over do it."

"No repeats of the entrance exam, got it." I smile as the rest of the class and the bus arrives. Everyone get on the bus, I get a seat between Izuku and the window.

Short time skip

And we are back at the USJ, majority of the class seems nervous about this fact, all aside from Toya. I wouldn't be surprised if some have slight PTSD from the experience. "Is it safe to be back here?" Mineta asks. "Yes it's safe." Eraserhead says "We upgraded the security system and we also have reason to believe that the League won't be attacking UA."

No one, at least the ones that are terrified, don't look like they believe him. I mean we do have the luck of things going very wrong.

"Come on you guys!" I smile, now standing next to our teacher "Like what I was telling the girls, look at how far we came from then and now. Hell, look at what we managed to do on day three! We stood out ground, so if they attack us today, I am sure to fucking hell we will kick their villain asses to another universe." Damn that was motivational, even for me!

So, clearly I never made coffee before. I don't even have coffee in my house! But I did do some research, including how much espresso can kill you.

Also, I might only update twice this week unless I get wifi before Friday because I have A LOT done over the weekend but on the PC the only chapters that are complete are this one and One Hundred and Twenty-six. So yee
