It was currently midday with the sun shining ever so brightly outside onto the school camp.
But even when the weather was this beautiful, you were holed up in your room.You had been studying without a break all day long for several days as well as training to further develop your quirk. You were working on coming up and creating new things with your quirk to help you have a wider range of opportunities in combat and rescuing.
While doing all that, you had only taken a few naps, but that was all the breaks you had had. You had never slept properly since you had started this studying and training marathon.
As for why you were doing this, it was just that you felt that you were lagging behind in improving your quirks compared to the rest of your classmates.So here you were again, sitting at your desk and studying; barely awake though. You were so tired that you really had to pull yourself together to not fall asleep every passing second.
Shota immediately saw that there was something off with you. When he arrived at your room and saw your reserved and quiet behavior, he asked if you were alright. You tried to smile and said, "As long as I don't close my eyes longer than a blink, I won't fall asleep.", not actually trying to hide your exhaustion.
His face showed that he knew exactly the reason why you were in this state. "Now's a great time for a long break."
Without another word, not even a warning, he swept you off your feet, and a few steps later, you were on your bed, buried under your covers. Strong arms wrapped around you, keeping you in place. So there was no use in trying to break free and you also didn't have the energy to do so. "Yeah, let's take a nap just like that." His voice made you feel even more relaxed and as if on command, you fell into slumber almost immediately.You woke up to knocking on your door and blinked open your eyes. It took you a while to register what the current situation was and when you finally processed everything, you struggled to break free from Shota's hug. He was hugging and keeping you closer to his body with those strong arms of his, that it was actually impossible to get away from him unless he woke up.
"Shota" you whispered and tried to wriggle out of this position you were in, which was impossible to do so because his arms and legs were tightly entangled around your body like a snake that had wrapped itself around its prey.
"Shota" you whispered again, this time a little louder and with much struggle, you somehow managed to free one of your arms. With your now free hand, you reached up and touched his face with your fingertips, lightly tapping against his skin.
You could never get used to seeing his sleeping face. It was just too cute and handsome that you fell for it every single time you looked at him. You really wanted to snap a picture of him right now but the situation didn't let you.A knock came again and this time, it was accompanied by someone calling your name. "(Y/N)? Can you come out right now?" It was Ashido.
Just then, Shota finally woke up. Through half-lidded eyes, his dark orbs stared at you with an unconcentrated gaze. You noticed that his grip had loosened and so, you used the opportunity to slip out of his arms and dash to the door."Would you like to go shopping with us?" You opened your mouth to agree but just before your voice came out, you changed your mind and declined. "Ah, sorry. I don't feel too good. Maybe next time."
The conversion had ended quickly and when it was over, the pink girl walked away and you slipped back in. Shota was still in bed, sleeping soundly.A ding came from your desk and you whirled around to see the screen of Shota's phone lit up. When you looked at the screen, not only were their numerous messages, but it also showed that there were several missed calls. They were all from 'mic'. So you grabbed the phone and went back to your bed where your boyfriend was laying.
You held his shoulders and shook him until he slowly opened his eyes, where you put his phone right in front of his face so he had to look at the screen.
He slightly furrowed his brows when he found the missed calls and read the text messages that Present Mic had sent him.'Are you in your room?'
'You're not dead are you?'
'Please answer me!'
'Are you dead?'And many other such messages were left behind by Present Mic. Upon seeing those texts, Shota's face darkened, visibly annoyed as he sat up. You then put the phone away, and slid your arms around his body, hugging him. "You can soon go back to sleep again. But right now, you should wake up and go, or else we could get in trouble." Shota let out a frustrated sigh and hugged you back.
"I'll see you later."
"Already can't wait."
Before parting, you held his hands you loved so much and you gave each other a quick peck on the lips.The next day had arrived and you were currently having classes.
Even though your head was filled with thoughts of Shota, you also had to focus on the lessons. So now that they started, you were in full concentration mode until they were finally over.After classes, Shota called you to him, saying that there was something he wanted to talk with you about. Once you two were alone, he got right to the point.
"You can return to your agency and start working again if you'd like to." You perked up when you heard that and unconsciously clasped both of Shota's hands into your own. To be honest, you had wanted to do hero work again and now that you got permission, you were more than happy to be able to finally do so.Suddenly, something crossed your mind. Or to be more exact, shattered pieces were swirling in your mind which you first had to figure out what it was by putting them together.
"What's wrong, love?" Shota, who noticed the sudden change in your mood, furrowed his brows, creating a slightly deep crease in between them and took your hands in his own. You shook your head and smiled to assure him that it was nothing serious to get concerned about. "I was just thinking about my quirk. You know... There must be something to avoid the last incident... Falling from the third story of the building, hitting my head and losing my memories." When you mentioned the last thing, you could feel Shota's grip on your hands tightening.While understanding how he felt, you wanted to make him stop feeling this way. So you leaned in closer to him to kiss him on the lips. Once you felt Shota's grip loosen, he kissed back and even pulled you closer to him by putting a hand behind your head, lightly pushing you to him.
When you pulled back, your face was a tiny bit flushed; even though it had been you who had initiated the kiss. Shota on the other hand looked pleased now. It was as if the hurt side of him from just moments ago, was just a facade. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that he had just pretended the whole time. But you understood that he had actually been really hurt.
"What should I do to mend this broken heart of yours?"
"From now on, we'll spend more time with each other as much as we can. Of course hero work will prevent us from doing so but every little second we're together is orecious to us, isn't it?"
When he sighed and then smiled, you knew that you had successfully beat out those feelings that had lingered inside him.But now that this was settled, you suddenly perked up. "Shota? Sorry that it's so sudden but could we go to the training hall?" you pleaded and also added the reason of why you wanted to do so. "I think I can do something with my quirk that can help me in the future."
After you found out what it was that you could do, you visited the development studio to request changing and improving the design of your hero costume.
In your room, you found Shota playing with Kuro. When he saw you, he stopped and turned to you instead. "I actually don't want you to continue your hero work... But I can't prevent you from doing it. So I hope the improvement of your costume helps you with not repeating what happened and of course also helping people in need."
You nodded. "I'm sure that it wasn't for nothing at least." You thought for a while, relating to your development to proceed with your hero duties.
"All I need to do is work on my blood manipulation quirk and my combat ability."It wasn't long until you could work again.
