On My Mind - S. Aizawa

Chapter Sixteen

In Any Way!

Y/n's Pov:

I finished writing out my plan for the week and took a breath.

It's been two days since Shota's class went to that training camp. I'm still thinking about what he asked me at the pool.

And I'm still beating myself up for it.

I get a headache just thinking about it. There's nothing I can do now. I'll wait until he gets back and then talk about it.

My thoughts were interrupted by Nezu walking in. "Sorry for interrupting you I just wanted to tell you something."

It's not like he doesn't do this every day.

"It's alright. What is it?" He didn't walk in but stayed close to the door. "A student has requested to see you this afternoon."

I looked at him confused. That's weird. Students usually just walk in.

"Oh okay, who?" I started to write a note to be here this afternoon when he spoke.

"It's Hitoshi Shinsou from General Studies." I accidentally broke my pencil.

I looked up at him. "I'm quite surprised actually he seemed like the closed-off type but I'm glad." He said with a smile.

"Anyway, I should go have a nice day!" He left and I just stared at the door.

Fuck.

It's eleven thirty two. My hands are really sweaty.

At noon, Hito- no Shinsou is coming to talk to me. Why am I so nervous? He probably doesn't know about me.

Yeah, there's no way my parents would tell him about me. I mean they were so embarrassed by me that they wouldn't even talk to me.

So there's no way they told him.

Yeah, I have nothing to worry about. I smiled as I looked at the clock. It's eleven forty.

Damn it! I got to stop looking at the clock. I got up and left to go to the vending machine.

I walked to it and put my money in it. I waited for the breaking noise to happen and then pushed the buttons.

Out fell what I wanted and I quickly unwrapped it. I took a bite and chewed trying to calm my nerves.

Everything is fine. I just have to get through today and the rest of the week will be easy.

Just get through this!

After I ate my snack I threw away the wrapper and started walking back to my office.

Everything is fine, everything is ok-

I came out of my head when someone bumped into me. "Oh, I'm sorry I wasn't watching where I was-"

I stopped talking.

"No, it's my fault I was on my phone. Sorry." I just stared at him. "Um, ma'am?"

I blinked a couple of times. "Oh yes, sorry. I should get going." I was almost free but he spoke.

"Wait you're the guidance counselor right?" Damn it. I turned around and smiled, the best I could.

"Yes, I am." He walked as he spoke. "I made an appointment with you for this afternoon."

I nodded. "Oh yes, I remember. Well, I'll see you-" He cut me off. "Actually I was wondering if I could see you now."

Why?!?

•

It's me, myself, and I. Oh and Hito- crap I mean Shinsou is here too.

"So what exactly is it you wanted to talk about?" I grabbed the paper and my pencil.

"Uh, well I guess school." I nodded and motioned for him to continue. "Well I don't know if you saw but I fought Midoriya in the Sports Festival."

"I did. You did really good." I was proud of him I'm happy I didn't stay to stain his life.

"Yeah well at the entrance exam I took it to get into the hero course." He paused. "But I didn't make it."

"Because of your quirk right." He looked surprised I knew. I sighed. "It's no surprise mental quirks get overlooked by physical ones."

I put down my pencil. "But people with mental quirks can become heroes too Hitoshi. They just have to work a bit harder which is unfair but that's the way we were born."

He was actually listening to me. "I know. That's why I wanted to work with Mr. Aizawa during internships."

I nodded. "Well, it's good that you did. He's a good example of a pro hero with a mental quirk."

He smiled a bit. I'm so happy right now. I feel I want to cry.

"Anything else?" He looked like he wanted to say something but didn't. "No just wanted to talk."

I nodded. "Okay, well I hope you get into the hero course." I smiled. "I'm rooting for you."

He nodded and got up. He was about to leave when he stopped. "One more thing."

I looked up but his back faced me. "What is it?" There was silence for a moment.

"I'm not an idiot. I know who you are." My stomach dropped. I wanted to say something but didn't.

I couldn't.

Instead, I let him leave and just sat there.

I'm so sorry.

I finally got home and took off my shoes.

I went and quickly changed before coming back out to watch tv in the living room.

I turned the tv on but went into the kitchen real quick to make something to eat. Just then my phone rang.

I went over and answered it. "Hello?" I asked. 'Y/n!' I stopped walking. "Midnight? What's wrong? Is everything okay?"

'Turn on channel five news!'

I didn't understand but did it anyway. When I did I saw it. The camp, the training camp on fire.

The police and firemen running around trying to get things situated.

My body got heavy and I quickly sat down. Then I saw a Bakugo, he had been taken.

By the same people who had attacked their class before.

I got up and quickly went to put on my shoes. 'Y/n!' I stopped and listen. 'Aizawa and them are coming back. They gonna have a meeting and all this other stuff I don't-"

I couldn't listen. "Midnight. What do I do?" I don't know what to do. I know I should go and help but will I be able to.

Can I possibly help in any way?
