Kirishima had to leave as he expected Akira to be there for a couple more days. So I pulled out my phone and texted my dad's personal driver. Thinking about my father sent a shiver up my spine. What if he finds out about her quirk? No it's only a matter of when. If UA knew he would soon know too. My breathe quickened then calmed for a second. Maybe he'll have me marry her. NO! That's not fair to her, she doesn't even like me. God I hate myself. I helped Akira hobble to the exit to wait for the driver.

"So uh, why didn't you tell me you were 'quirkless'? How did you even get into UA?" I asked genuinely curious.

"I uh I don't really tell a whole lot of people and I honestly have no idea how I got in. My whole life I wanted to go to UA more than anything but I preformed terrible on the entrance exams. So I'm really not sure." She replied.

I couldn't help but laugh. She gave me a strange look.

"Akira, you got into UA because of your quirk."

We sat outside the hospital for about 30 minutes. Those 30 minutes felt like years as I sat there thinking about how I basically cheated the entrance exams. A slick black car pulled into the parking lot interrupting my thoughts. Todoroki stood up offering his hand. His monochromatic eyes stared down at me gently I as reached for his hand.

When I stepped into the car it seemed other worldly. It had champagne and tinted windows with a tv where you would normally see the driver. For a second I frogot Todoroki was a Todoroki.

"Sir please take us to 1068 Burlington ave."

With that the car started moving but you couldn't tell in the back. I didn't live far from here so I decided to embrace the opportunity to feel like royalty. I ran my hands over the soft velvet seats and giggled as they tickled my fingers. I felt him watching me, I probably looked like an idiot, I definitely feel like one. My hand moved from the velvet to the choker around my neck. Will this really keep my quirk under control? What if I'm dangerous?

My thoughts spiraled as we pulled up to my house. Looking out the car window I hoped to see my baby, but he wasn't there. I let out a sigh picturing petting my kitty.

"Sir we've arrived. Shall I be taking you back to the estate or do you wish to remain here?"

I hadn't thought about the fact that Todoroki would have to go home. It felt like an eternity that he had been overi pursed my lips looking down at my hands. They wouldn't stop moving. I wanted him to stay and have more fun but another part of me felt a fire in my chest thinking about him staying with me. My heart started racing anticipation at what his answer would be. I had gotten so lost in my thoughts I hadn't realized he was looking at me.

"Tell father that I have business to attend to and am training." His eyes never left mine.

"As you wish."

We both stepped out of the car. Walking to the door as he began to pull out of the driveway. I stopped on the steps my lips quivering.

"Why did you stay?"

"Because quite frankly I don't think you should be alone."

My fingers fiddled with the choker around my neck.

"Akira word will get out about this. You know that right?"

I didn't want to admit that I would probably become a target unless I laid low.

"It doesn't have to..." I whimpered.

He wrapped his arms around me placing his head ontop of mine, holding me tight.

"I won't let anything happen to you."
