Don't Tell A Soul (Shouta Aizawa X Reader)

8. Stressed Back Up

"You're leaving already?" I said covering my waist down with the hoodie next to me.

"Yea I got stuff to do. I've been called into work too." Shouta leant down to put his shoes on.

"Hmm... fine. You'll miss me though"
"Yea I'll miss that sweet ass of yours"
"Haha very funny" I rolled my eyes at his comment.

Shouta walked towards the door and turned around.
"See you round (Y/N)."
"You too Grumpy" I looked at him with sad eyes. I was dissappointed he was going already. But I couldn't let him know that.

After shouta left I spent my day lounging away more then anything. I did some washing, and thought about Shouta.

He was kinda dreamy don't you think?

Ugh, what am I thinking. I barely know him.

I walked over to the counter in my kitchen. I saw a peice of paper that hadn't been there before.

"What's this?"I picked the paper up an unfolded it. On it was a combination of numbers and a note.

Obviously this is my number. Call it.
I've definitely enjoyed this time.
- Grumpy

A blush appeared clear on my face.
"What a dork." I pinned the note on my fridge using a letter magnet.

I continued my day as I probably would have either way. Binge watching shows and eating. What else did I really have to do.

Shouta and I had talked only a few times over the past fortnight. Ofcourse, we had just happened to run into eachother a couple times at the store.

When those times crossed, we would hang out and talk. Eat pocky if we ever found good flavours and other unrelated things.

I'd thought a lot about him over that time as you'd probably imagined.
Who would have thought I would seem to have a slight crush on a hook up...

But to be completely honest with you, he's been a big distraction for me. I'm really stressed. I've got an exam coming up on psychology and famous psychologists. Not to mention works been hell.

Being 'Pressure the upcoming undercover hero' wasn't easy at the moment. I've had a lot of missions.
I'm just glad UA pays for my university intuition.

I've been worked to the bone. Being piled in research tabs on my laptop and bruises, cuts and scraps, topped with paper work for my job wasn't amazing.

I'm super close to finishing my degree though. This is my last year. So in two days time, I'll be doing one of my last exams. Pretty stressful.

Bzzt bzzt

I looked over to the side of the counter where my phone laid.
I wonder who it is.

'Hey (Y/N), let's go do something tomorrow. I'm off work so let's hang out.' It was Shouta Aizawa.

I wanted to go out with him. But I really couldn't.
'Sorry I can't, I'm way too swamped.'
My reply was short. I didn't want to engage in conversation right now.

Bzzt bzzt

'Oh, ok.'

I felt bad about turning him down. This was the first time he had actually asked me to do something with him directly. And I turned him down.

My study session was long and hard. Eye bags seemed to crawl to my face faster then I would prefer. I was running on energy drinks and the will to not fail this exam.
