"Alright, what's the emergency?" Kirishima asked as he plopped down next to me on my couch.

"I've fucked up so many things today that I don't know where to start." I groaned while picking up my cup and taking another drink of my whiskey.

"How many cups have you had?" He asked in a worried tone. I could lie and say this was my first cup, but it wasn't. I don't need to make my life more harder than it already is.

"This is my third." I sighed. He reached over and grabbed the cup from my hand. Yeah, I saw that coming.

"Start from the beginning." He whispered. My eyes fluttered shut as I relaxed further into the couch. The first thing I did, I still don't regret. I hated my damn job.

"My boss congratulated me on finally hitting my quota," I started. "Then he told me I'm not bringing in the money like I used to."

"Does he not understand you only have so much time at work?" Kirishima scoffed. He's told me for years that my job isn't worth anything.

"He must understand because he told me I have to come in for mandatory overtime for pretty much the rest of my life." I scoffed. Looking back now, I wish I had left my job sooner.

"How bad did you yell at him?" He asked nervously. He knew me better than I knew myself, so I'm not surprised that was the first thing he asked.

"I didn't." I shrugged. "I told him I agreed to the job for pay and benefits, not to sell my soul. I quit." He paused for a moment, trying to figure out the right words to say. Situations like this aren't easy. It's stressful not to have a steady source of income and no other plans.

"It's a crappy situation, but I'm glad you quit." He frowned. "That job drained you all of the time."

"To make matters worse, I kicked Midoriya's friend out of the apartment because they were kissing on the couch." I didn't need to open my eyes to know he was giving me a look of disapproval. I could feel his disappointment radiating off his body.

"Just kissing?" He asked.

"Yeah. They were in the middle of a meal, and I walked in on a quick, innocent kiss. I literally told the guy to get out." I groaned. I know it was wrong. I may be stubborn, but I'm not stubborn enough to ignore my faults.

"Bakubro, what the hell is going on with you?" Kirishima asked.

"That's not the worst part," I added with a sigh. I sat up and opened my eyes. "I really fucked up."

"Go on," He sighed. I took a deep breath to calm my nerves before telling him the worst part.

"He said if I were going to keep scaring away every guy he was around, he would move out. Me being stupid and mad, I told him he should." Kirishima let out a heavy sigh. He ran a hand through his messy hair, processing everything I told him.

"Yeah, you really fucked up." He admitted.

"I already knew that, but thanks." I scoffed. I didn't ask him to come over to make me feel shittier.

"Do you want him to move out?" He asked. I wish I had an answer to that. I would miss him if he did, but it might be for the best. I get mad whenever I see him hide who he is or he has a guy over. I don't even know why I'm mad half of the time, but it makes my blood boil in ways I haven't experienced since I lived in the city.
