Out of Your Mind

28

You could barely sleep last night. Eventually you nod off and practically throw your phone across the room in frustration of it waking you up. When you finally drag yourself out of bed, you pick up your phone and a huge smile spreads across your face as you see a text from Aizawa:

Aizawa💤: Good morning, [y/n]. Still down for our date tonight?

You actually are going out on a date with a man you've been crushing on for quite some time. It still didn't feel real and you excitedly texted back.

[y/n]: good morning! Still totally down ☺️
Aizawa💤: awesome, I'll pick you up at 7?
[y/n]: that works!
[y/n]: how should I dress?
Aizawa 💤: I was thinking of going uptown for dinner, then I have a surprise for you :)

A surprise? He's piqued your interest.

[y/n]: .....I gotta ask, what's the surprise?
Aizawa💤: you'll see
Aizawa💤: better hurry and get ready, don't wanna be late to work ;)

You roll your eyes. You had a feeling he wouldn't tell you what the surprise was but you figured you'd ask... just in case. You threw your phone on your bed and got ready for the day. Your heart was racing all the way to work, was Aizawa going to act any different? Should you act any different? You wonder how many people knew. Knowing Yua, news probably travelled around fast.

"Cmon girl, get a grip" You say to yourself as you pull into the parking lot. You lean into your car as you grab your lunchbox and bag that has your laptop and stuff when a voice startles you.

"[y/n]!!!!" Yua says VERY loudly and VERY excitedly.

"Ah! Oh..Yua, what the heck??" You hit your head on the roof of the car.

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry" She laughs.

"It's ok, I wasn't paying attention and you scared me." She puts her hand on her hip as you lock your car door.

"What's got you on edge? You nervous to see him today??" You rolled your eyes.

"Of course I am, but I don't wanna make it weird. I also don't know how he's gonna react to me. I don't know if he wants anyone to know yet or not.." She opens her mouth to speak but you put up a finger as you interrupt her. "So don't you dare tell anyone yet. Or else, I will personally turn you into a fabulously dressed vegetable." You half joked. She put her hands up and crossed her heart.

"Ok ok, I promise I won't. Sheesh...." You walk into the main office and get settled in when there's a soft knock on your doorway. You look up and it's him. He's completely healed, there are no casts and he probably feels like he's in the best shape of his life.

"Hi.." You say breathlessly.

"Hi.." He walks in and closes the door. You're standing behind your desk and you feel your cheeks heat up and with the way he's eying you, you feel cornered. There's no where for you to run, your instincts are screaming at you to shy away but at the same time you want to jump into his arms and never let go.

"You're.."

"Yep. Recovery Girl went a little overboard on the treatment but I'm all good."

"Why do you say that?" You still haven't moved, he hasn't either.

"I feel like I could run a marathon right now. I've never felt better." You finally gather the courage to pull yourself from the spell it felt like you were under and slowly walk around your desk. You reach out and grabbed his hand lightly. You felt how strong they were and compared how much smaller yours was to his.

"What would we do without Recovery Girl," you mumble softly. With the same hand, he reaches up and cups your face.

"I don't know but I'm glad we have her.." Everything felt like it was going in slow motion, he leans in and kisses you gently at first. One hand his on your face and another snakes around your waist and pulls you up against his body. You get lost in the passion of it all. For a moment it just felt like you were the only two people on the planet, but you were rudely interrupted by the first bell. Aizawa smiles into your mouth, pulling away and presses his forehead against yours.

"Sorry I got carried away.."

"I did too...how rude of first bell to ruin the moment." He chuckles, keeping his arms wrapped around your waist, he kisses your forehead.

"I guess we should go do our jobs then, huh?" You look up at him and nod. Reluctantly, you break away from his arms and reach over your desk to grab your phone. You have to go to your morning post at the front of the school.

"So how are we gonna do this?" You ask, he opens the door for you then stuffs his hands in his pockets.

"You mean like, when people notice?"

"Yeah.." Yua is typing away at her computer but you already know she developed super sonic hearing to overhear your conversation.

"I'm not gonna deny it if they ask, but I'm not going to go around telling people.."

"Ok, cool. I was going to do the same.." You walk out and see some students trickling in. The first bell was to let the staff know that the gates are going to open and students will be coming in. It gave you all plenty of time to walk to your morning posts and lead the students wherever they have to go.

"..um, also.."

"We'll keep everything behind closed doors. Trust me, I don't want my students teasing me about you either" you smiled in assurance that he knew what you were going to say.

"Well, I guess that settles it then." He reaches out and squeezes your hand before quickly putting his hand back in his pocket.

"I'll see you at 7." He winks and walks away, leaving your cheeks burning as his touch lingered on your hand.
