"So, how's school going for you?" Asked Mayuma as she whipped tears of laughter from her eyes.
"It's been- oh what do you call it...hell? Annoying? I've never been able to properly meet the other classmates yet 'cause I've been stuck in that room." Laying back in my chair, I relaxed my hands on the back of my neck.
"Well, maybe we can plan something out this weekend. I can invite the class over for a little get together. I'm pretty well known for planning events. Maybe we can go and see a movie together, or to the mall! How about we go over to one of our houses?"
"A movie sounds good. And then after we can all go to dinner over here. I can get Aunt Kara to close the place for us."
Mayuma's eyes lit up. I felt my heart flutter. "That sounds wonderful darling! I'll go and text the invites." Just as Mayuma pulled out her phone, a waiter arrived with our food.
"Who ordered the bowl of lemons?" Asked the waiter confusedly.
"I did, gimme." There were five whole lemons in the bowl. After taking hold of one of them, I bit into it like an apple. As a kid, I was constantly teased by my classmates when they saw me eating them, but I never thought twice or even bothered to bat an eye. Lemons are my favorite foods.
"H-How does it taste?" Mayuma sipped her coffee as she stared at me, nearly speechless.
"Like a lemon! I've been craving this all day. I kid you not." I've always loved the stinging sensation of the juices in my mouth. It reminds me of my venom in a way.
"Oh I want to tell you something. I've never told anyone this before."
In an instant, I stopped eating. "What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it? Tell me! Tell me! Tell me!"
"Well...there's this guy and-"
"Ooooooh!!!! You've found your true love! I knew it! Tell me! What is he like? Does he treat you well? Is he handsome?"
Mayuma giggled. "He's very handsome, and I mean very handsome. Me and him are good friends. He works very hard all the time. But every now and then he would blabber out something at me, but I know he doesn't mean it. And he does have a hard time controlling his temper, but he's working on it."
"He sounds pretty cool. I would like to meet him at some point."
"Yeah..." Her face was red from blushing. I realized how easily she could become flustered.
"Uh, changing the subject. So what's your quirk? I've been wondering for a while now."
"So...it's sort of complicated but I'll explain it as best as I can. So basically my quirk is called Fashion. I can design different styles, outfits, and collections that can give me different abilities in a way. I can create an outfit that can become immune to a quirk. Let's say I'm fighting a villain with a fire quirk, I wouldn't be affected by the attack because of the outfit that I created. And I could also create a design that would give me the abilities against some quirks. It's easier to understand in person than a worded explanation."
"That's awesome. So you could be practically invincible if wearing the right outfit." I said as I finished my third lemon.
"Yeah pretty much. And I don't need the help of Hatsume Mei."
"Oh I've heard of that crazy lady."
"What's your quirk? Super strength? After seeing you take down Katsuki I assumed that you hold a quirk like that of some sort."
"Uh...no, not really, no. But that would be sweet!" I explained to the girl my quirk and my signature attacks. When she leaned closer to listen, she seemed very fascinated. During the next half-hour or so, we ate and talked before I paid the bill and we left the restaurant.
"So about the movie with our classmates, how about we watch that new secret agent movie? I've been wanting to watch that since it came out. Tomorrow night at 7?"
"Sounds good to me. I gotta hit the road, see ya Blue Eyes!" We waved to each other and went our separate ways. The kind of girl Mayuma is makes anyone feel comfortable whenever she's around them, and I enjoy people like her. She makes me feel a certain way, like a steady blaze in my heart. This is a different kind of happiness that illuminates inside of me.
