On My Mind - S. Aizawa

Chapter Fourteen

Beating Fast!

Y/n's Pov:

I walked to my office this morning to find Eraserhead waiting by my door.

We're starting this early in the morning huh? I went over to unlock my door.

I didn't say anything to him when I did. I unlocked the door and went inside, he followed.

It was quiet because neither one of us talked. I sat down and started writing out the plan for today.

"This is childish." I finally looked up at him. "Yes, it is." He looked at me.

"Look I'm sorry about-" He paused. "You know what." I laughed a bit. I don't know why but his behavior right now reminds me of a little kid.

Not really knowing how to apologize but doing it anyway. And when they do they get nervous and embarrassed because they know what they did was wrong.

And sometimes they cry because they meant no harm.

I sighed. "I'm not upset about it. I'm upset because you ran away like a little boy who just wet his pants."

He laughed. "Yeah, sorry." I smiled a bit. "Well can't do anything about it now. Let's forgive and forget."

He was silent for a moment. Like he was thinking. But also, and I'm not sure it, his face seemed to sadden.

"Yeah let's." I nodded and put down my pen. "So how did the kids do on their exams?"

He started to explain and I sat there listening to every word.

I finished some work and finally got up to stretch. This feels nice.

Until I was interrupted.

"Oh sorry, I'm interrupting?" Of course you are. "Of course you aren't! Come in."

I sat down and so did she. "So what can I do for you?" Oh, I know this girl, Jirou from Class 1-A.

"Well, I've been having this uneasy feeling lately." I nodded. "Do you think anything you've done or said could have caused this?"

She shrugged. "I honestly don't think it was me that made me feel uneasy." I wrote that down.

"Well can you describe this feeling for me?" She thought for a moment. "My stomach feels like it's in a knot."

I nodded and encourage her to go on. "And I feel sweaty sometimes." Wait a minute.

"Jirou could it be you like someone?" She paused then laughed. "Sorry Miss but I don't-" She paused.

"I mean I can't-" She paused again. "Its not like I-" She stopped and thought for a moment.

"Holy shit."

I couldn't help but laugh a bit. "Better?" She nodded. "Yeah, I'm so sorry I probably wasted your time."

I shook my head. "Not at all. I'm always happy to help." She nodded and got up to leave.

"Thanks." She said before she left. I smiled to myself.

This job has some benefits.

I walked into Eraserheads class and saw him sleeping on the floor in a sleeping bag.

I smiled a bit at him. He looks like a worm.

I sat down at one of the student's desks and opened my lunch container. I finally got food at home so I was about to make bring something today.

The sound of me eating probably woke Eraserhead up. "What time is it?" I finished chewing before answering.

"Lunch time." He groaned and got out of his sleeping bag. He stretched and then look at my food.

"What's that?" I pointed at it with my fork. "It's just pasta I made." He nodded but was eyeing my food.

I laughed a bit. "Do you want to try some?" I asked. "You would share your food?"

I made an 'eh' noise. "Not really. But a small bite won't kill me." He hmmed. He came over and sat next to me.

I pushed over the container and I gave him my fork. He picked up a bit a tried it.

"Wow, this is really good." I smiled and took back the container. I continued eating when he spoke.

"It's your turn." Oh right, I forgot the whole question thing.

"Okay. Explain your quirk to me." I realized that I don't know his quirk too well.

He'll probably ask me about mine but at this point, I don't really care.

"When I look at someone I can erase their quirk. For however long I can keep my eyes open is how long they lose their quirk. When I blink they get their quirk back."

My eyes widen. "Wow, that actually sounds really cool." I laughed a bit. "The name Eraserhead makes sense now."

He shook his head. "Yeah, I really didn't care much for it so I let Yamada pick it for me."

I smiled. I don't know why but that made me happy.

"So what about your quirk?" I knew it. I cleared my throat. "Okay, you already know I call it Memory Control."

He nodded. I looked down at my container. "Well, when I come into contact with someone and focus enough I can see the moment that lead to their state now and control it."

I looked back at him. He seemed to be thinking. "So you're taking away their fears."

I smiled a bit and shook my head. "Fear is everywhere it's indefinite. I'm just easing it so it's not as bad as before."

I paused. "Weird thing though. Whenever I do try to ease it a pink rose appears and I won't be able to ease it until the person under touches it."

He seemed really interested. "Okay." I looked at him confused. "You're not gonna ask any more questions?"

He shook his head. "You don't like it when I ask a bunch of questions so." Wow, he's- different than when we first met.

The bell rang which meant lunch was over. "Well, guess that's it. See ya later Eraserhead." I closed my container and was about to leave when he spoke.

"You know." I turned to look at him. "You can call me Aizawa." He paused.

"Or even Shota." My face felt warm.

"Okay, see ya later Shota." I left and walked back to my office.

My heart's beating fast.
