BNHA: Dual Fates.

Chapter 27: Driving Test?

In the Principal's office sat the redhead with her schoolbag on her lap, Uviel stared into beady black ones across the desk confusedly. Nezu was sipping at his drink, a pleased smile formed after setting it down to question the student and intertwining his fingers to get more comfortable. "Hello, hello! Before you ask, I can assume you're here since I didn't show up last night, correct?" he watched as her eyes lit up with surprise, from there he knew he was spot-on.

"Yes! I-- I didn't know why you weren't there. You don't seem the type to... Go back on what you say," Saito grew quieter the more she talked and couldn't help but frown at the thought. However, a bit relieved that he didn't show, it still felt a bit concerning to her.

"Forgive me! I had to speak with your internship, Kamihara. I had to inform him about your situation so he could keep an eye on you while you're with him; since I cannot do it myself during that time. He is now fully aware of your sudden lack of control during odd times, so there is nothing to fear or hide as he is quite understanding!" With a paw raising, his lips curled into a bright smile before seeing pure excitement fill her eyes.

"K- Kamihara?! S- So, he knows about..." A moment's pause ensued when her mouth was left agape, just to close and avert her eyes to ponder. "Then he knows about my shy nature and Haru," the girl assumed and frowned at the thought. She had hoped nothing would be revealed. I suppose-- it'd be best if he did know, at least then he won't attack me if I lose control or something. Her thoughts echoed quietly, however, Nezu's next words made her head perk up.

"Fear not! Also, did you bring your costume for the personal training with Kamihara?" his question made the girl gasp.

"Yes, I brought my costume but-- I'm going to need to talk to Hastume about my rocket boots, they play a big part in my outfit. Haru... Helped me design it and spice it up, I can't just not wear it, it'd more than likely upset her," Sorrow engulfed her blue hues at the mention of her best friend. It didn't go unnoticed by the Principal, just seeing her saddened face made his smile lower.

"Wonderful! I'll inform Mr. Aizawa of your lateness, hurry along now before it gets any later," with another beaming smile of his, a paw gestured for her to leave in a rush and so, she did. A quick nod was received before she collected her bag and hurried through the door, astonished at how late she was.

~~~Later~~~

After the trip to Hatsume, she was finally ready and stood with the rest of the students who were surprisingly still there at the train station. Thanks to quick directions from Ochaco when she texted her for urgent help, it took almost all morning to find it.

With sprinting feet, her shoes clacked against the hard floor of the station, and reached the backside of the class with a panting breath. "Hey, am I late?" A quick whisper between breaths to Midorya, made the said boy glance at her from his peripherals. He wasn't expecting to see her in that situation, a gasp escaped when he flinched at her exhausted and bent-over position.

"N- No, we just got here too! Don't worry," the boy whisper-yelled to the redhead who looked as though she had run a marathon.
