Chapter 15 | Thinking

I sat in shock, staring at the door. My mouth gaping, I had no idea how to react to this or process. Eventually I grew angry,

"Who the fuck even is he, to command me around?" I growled looking around at the desk. "I have no idea who he is-

I slammed the desk drawer closed.

"And I will not be following any "rules", the fuck is he talking about?"

I sit back and try to keep my hands still.

"I have no idea who he even is, I'll listen to school rules but he has no authority over me. We are both teachers, he is no mightier than me."

I scowl at the thought of how he could even think I would instantly oblige to his demands. I barely even know you, to me you are a stranger. It boggles my mind how he could confidently trap me in place and list out "rules" for me to follow, like I'm his pet?

I laugh, I don't know why but I laugh. I felt a strong urge to smack him, once again. I wanted to smack him hard in his face, see him cower and leave me the hell alone. I'm just as good a Pro Hero as he is, he has no right to boss ME around. I'm going to pretend that this never happened, I'll leave it alone and hopefully he will forget and act like a normal partner.

It was a while later and I still couldn't stop replaying my day, going over everything I did wrong, everything I could have done. It was my first day and it felt like a 35 hour movie marathon, what was even going on? A double door between only me and Aizawa's room? Hitting Aizawa, him commanding I listen to his very specific rules? This was going to be hell.

He doesn't know me and I don't know him, I only know the Pro Hero side of him. The savior everyone views him as, not this dreadful man that bores a hole in my brain. I can feel my brain disintegrate as I talked to him today, all I've ever thought about him put to waste. I have no idea who that was I just talked to, he acts like I'm a pet. Hopefully he takes a hint and sees that I want nothing to do with him.

It was an eventful day and I just wanted to chill out in my new apartment but there was a small knock at my door. I sighed and headed to my door, opening it by the knob. Recovery Girl stood in the doorway a sweet smile on her face.

"Hello, dear. I came to apologize for not being able to show you around earlier, and to check up on you." She said looking up at me. "May I come in?" She gave a small laugh as I stood in the doorway peering down at her.

"Oh, shit, yeah." I quickly stood aside and held the door open for her as she walked inside. She was holding the satchel she packed earlier and was turning her head this way and that to explore. She smiled as she saw I had unpacked almost everything.

"Settled in that quickly?" She asked.

"Ha, yeah. Decided to just get it over with today." I nodded behind her as she continued looking around. "I didn't wanna lead it on for weeks, and be lazy."

She nodded back and finally we came upon the living room seating area and she took a seat. I sat beside her and she set her satchel on the coffee table. She turned to me and frowned.

"Dear, I'm so sorry about earlier. I really did plan to show you around school, introduce you to some people. I had no idea I would be called in, I really hope you forgive me." She said grabbing my hands in hers.

"Oh, really it's okay, at least Aizawa was there to show me around. I think he pretty much showed me everything." I tried to crack a smile, giving my hardest not to think about the list of rules, that I would NOT be following.

"Oh, well that's good. That makes me feel a bit better, knowing Aizawa was being nice and showed you around school. Hopefully it made up for how he acted earlier." She went on as my eye twitched a bit. "I'll say it again, he really is just a nice boy, I'm glad he was there to take my place. If he does happen to disrespect you again, let me know. I get you can handle yourself, but sometimes he can be a bit much, if you haven't seen." I nodded.

"Yes. He showed me around to my little office space and our classroom. I don't remember the board putting Aizawa Shota in the email they sent me." I laughed nervously. "I would have been a little more prepared if I had known that I would be facing Eraserhead. I didn't find out till later in the day."

"Oh, really? I thought they put all the information in the emails, maybe they forgot." She thought out loud.

"Well, it's okay in a way. I mean you could say it was a nice surprise." I laughed, lying through my teeth.

"I'm so glad, I really do hope you come to love this place. It truly is so beautiful, there are going to be some bumps in the road, and hardships but it will be smooth sailing if you take it on right." She smiled.

"I will be honest, it was a little difficult the first second I was here. Aizawa didn't seem so friendly, but knowing a nice person like you will be here sets me at ease." I smiled back at her, for real this time.

I was glad Recovery Girl was so nice to me right from the start, she really is a kind soul.

"Well of course, us girls have to stick together, right?" She giggled a bit.

I smiled at her. "Yeah, thank you."

"It's no problem, and if you ever need anything else, you know where to find me." She grabbed her satchel and slung it on her shoulder. "But for now, I'm gonna get going, I have some food to get home to, I'm terribly hungry." She laughed as she got up.

I stood up with her and walked her to the door.

"Thank you, again. I'll see you tomorrow?" I asked with a grin.

"Yes, ma'am." She answered and stood out the door, "And remember, do be nice to Aizawa and give him a break every now and then, he's just a secret softie."

I nodded and she walked down the hallway, I closed to door and turned around.

"Softie?" I laughed, I don't care who he is. I want nothing to do with him, I couldn't care any less about his personality.

At least I knew what my mind was set on, for now.
