  It was almost as if Aizawa was some type of rabid dog, you had to tell him to back off, even then he still wouldn't though. In a way he seemed a bit charming, and intimidating. He instantly obeyed Midnight and left when she asked, that made me ponder. Were they friends? Whatever, it doesn't matter.

"Hi." I managed to say back, I was still panting a bit from that previous encounter with Aizawa.

"He only listens me because I know his dirty little secrets." She grinned and put a finger to her mouth as if to keep quiet.

I chuckled at that, she seemed like a fun person, she reminded me of Present Mic in a way. I really like Midnight, shes beautiful and I've always had a certain admiration for her when I was a bit younger.

"I see." I smiled and she winked.

"So, how are you doing?" She asked and searched my face.

"Okay, but how did you know I was here?" I wondered out loud.

"Everybody in the school knows, you got jumped in the hallway." She went on. "Some people are saying Aizawa saved you but others are saying it was Recovery Girl. I wouldn't believe it was Aizawa either."

I puzzled for a second, wasn't it Recovery Girl, or was it Aizawa? I don't even know, but how could people be torn between two that look the exact opposite? Whatever.

"The girls that jumped you got 3 months suspension from teaching and can't set foot on campus." She smiled at me, reassuringly.

I sighed in relief, that was honestly music to my ears. That made me feel a lot better.

"Good." I said, and my stomach gave a loud growl.

"You sound hungry." She said and tilted her head a smidge.

"Yeah, Recovery Girl is bringing me something to eat from the cafe." I gave a small laugh and my face turned red. "She's taking a lot longer than I thought."

"Well anyways, I do hope you can forgive Aizawa, he comes on strong at first." She went on. "He's a charmer, but he can really care for a girl. Besides playing around." She gave a short laugh.

My face was stone cold, "Hm, yeah." I crossed my arms and turned away.

So he really was a player, charming? Knows how to treat a woman? What, by playing them? That made no sense, that just half ruined my mood, but it's not Midnights fault. Nothing even makes sense anymore, I don't know what to think or do half of the time. This is like some weird fucking wonderland type shit, why is everything so confusing?

Midnight gave a half smile and said, "Well I'll leave you to eat your cereal."

I smiled back best I could, "See you." I didn't mean to give attitude a minute ago, it just came out.

She got up and left the room, I feel bad, I was being a bit rude. That's only because I was confused, I really wish things weren't this way. I can't believe I played myself again, letting Aizawa get that close when he even gave me a way out. "Leave." That's all I had to say, why didn't I just say it. I hate myself with every being of my body, and it hurts but I'm so stupid I don't think I'll ever be able to love myself. Or anyone, for that matter.

I waited until Recovery Girl finally showed up at the door, she walked in with a bowl and a spoon. I smiled at her as she strode over to the side of my bed and pulled out a small stand up table, placing it on my lap, she put the bowl of cereal on the table and walked over to her desk.

"I hope you get your fill with just some cereal, and I'm sorry for taking so long. It was packed today." She said.

I nodded and took a spoonful of cereal shoving it in my mouth. It tasted like heaven, I'm not a fan of cereal but starving for hours did a toll on me. I dug in and didn't stop, it barely even satisfied my hunger but that's just because it's only cereal.

I decided to ask Recovery Girl a question that had been tugging at my strings for a while,

"Why can't I use my legs?"

She turned to look at me and she answered,

"The girls must have hit something in your lower back, a nerve, something like that. It numbed your legs." I nodded.

"You should be able to walk anytime now, actually." She said.

"Do you think it will come back before I have to teach Monday?" I asked a little scared.

"Of course, it's not that serious, you'll be fine." She gave a little chuckle and went back to working at her desk.

I sighed in relief, if Recovery Girl told me I would be fine then I'll be fine. I believe her more than anyone.

"Was Aizawa here?" Recovery Girl asked out of no where.
