Out of Your Mind

37

When you get back to the office, All Might is leaning on Yua's desk in his hero form. You catch Yua's eyes and widen your eyes in excitement, she does the same thing.

"So just let me know- ah! Ms. [L/N]! I was hoping I could speak with you!" When he's in his hero form, he's so enthusiastic, all the time.

"I'm going to have some lunch in my office if you want to sit with me" your stomach was rumbling so much that you're convinced the whole school could hear it.

"Of course! Ms. Imai" he politely excused himself, then winked at her as he pushed himself off the counter and confidently strides across the room. You can tell it's taking everything in her to keep it together and she quickly excuses herself to go to the bathroom. When you close your door, All Might quickly goes into his weak form, startling you at how fast he can change. But with that, you take an extra measure and lock your door.

"People usually knock before entering but I locked it, just in case" you say as you settle into your chair.

"I appreciate that. So, how's everything been?"

"Uhh, pretty good for the most part. I have some sessions later today, but not much else." You open the little container that had your sandwich and frown because it was cold.

"I see. Detective Naomasa contacted me today, he said you had come in to talk to the Nomu."

"Did he? I didn't know you knew each other" you couldn't be bothered to go all the way down to the teachers lounge to warm up your food so you decided to just eat it cold.

"He's a very good friend of mine. One of the people that know about the secret to One for All."

"Gotcha. So he must've told you about what I found?"

"Not exactly. He said he'd fill me in once they've confirmed what you found. I was just wondering what it was like going through Nomu's mind? And how clear were some of those memories?"

"Well-" you tried muffling through a mouthful of food but you didn't want to spit up all over All Might so you took a second to chew and swallow. "He basically was like a zombie. Like his body had physical responses to some of the memories he had but if he had any thoughts at all, it was simply just 'like' and 'dislike'" you took another bite of your sandwich.

"Interesting, and what about his memories?"

"They were pretty clear for the most part. Without the proper equipment, going pretty far would not have been good for either of us."

"I see"

"Yep. I saw that Izuku got an internship with Gran Torino! I worked with him a couple times a while back. Why'd he ask for him?" All Might got extremely nervous and started stuttering and stumbling over his words.

"He's, uh, he's my old teacher. He trained m-me when I got One for All."

"Oh wow, I didn't know that" You sat back to finish your sandwich. "I saw you talking to Yua, what was that about?" You smirked when his face went red and he became even more of a mess.

"I-I was waiting for you to come in and so I had a conversation with Ms. Imai.." oh you know, your phone has been buzzing with text messages the moment you entered your office, no doubt Yua was blowing your phone up.

"Mhmmm, is that all?" You had a little bit of sadistic enjoyment from making the number one hero squirm.

"Uh-well-If she's up for it of course- I asked her if she wanted to have dinner- or whatever- with me" sheesh, he was a mess.

"Uh huh, have fun with that" you winked at him. He put his hands up nervously and you don't think his face could've gotten any redder.

"She said she'll think about it, it's not definite" you laughed

"She just said that so she doesn't seem easy. She's going to say yes" he gave you a hopeful look.

"You think so?"

"I know so"

Later that day, you get a text from Shouta.

Aizawa 💤: have anything planned after work?
You: nope, not really
Aizawa 💤: wanna stop by?

You haven't been over to his apartment since he healed from his injuries.

You: I'd love to. I just have to head home and feed the doggos rq!
Aizawa 💤: lmk when you're here 🤍

You stared at that white heart for an ungodly amount of time. It still didn't feel real at times and the little bits of affection that poked through his usual self sent your heart through a loop.
