Getting over it (Eri X Kota)

pilot

"please....please don't go..." All Deku could think about were those words. He grips onto the bed sheet and let out a groan, sure the rescue mission went well and they got her out but eri was just in the hospital.

It was eri's first day of being free and being able to see sunlight...yet she was asleep most of the day because of the fever she got, not to mention she was still adjusting so no one was allowed to see her. Deku couldn't help but worry about the girl, he stayed up all night worrying about her.

By the time the sun came up Deku groggily got out of bed and got ready for the day. He made his way over to the hospital, he knew they probably won't let him see her but he had to try...of course they refused to let him see her, it was like that for a whole week...

By the time they finally let him see her eri was just eating, she saw Deku and froze. He saved her sure but she just remembered seeing him covered in his own blood...the screaming...the dead bodies... everything.

Eri flinches and closed her eyes trembling, Deku tried to reach out to her only for her to whimper in fear. Many others tried to get her to calm down, they all tried for a week to get her to open up and trust them...so in the end they all sat in a meeting room trying to brainstorm ideas, "oh! Maybe a tea party?" Mina recommend. "No...those are too noisy for her little ears..." Aizawa says, it was like this for hours.

Idea after idea, nothing seemed to work. "What if we ask Mandalay to let Kota stay here at the dorm for awhile?" Deku suggested, "he's around eri's age...maybe he can get her to come out of her shell?" Deku adds on and aizawa thinks. "Hm...it could work" aizawa says and everyone perks up, "then let's try it mr. Aizawa!" Denki says clearly desperate to make sure this girl was happy.

"Alright, I'll talk to Mandalay tonight...now all of you get some sleep" aizawa says, it was currently 10pm and he needed to finish paperwork. Three days later Mandalay arrived with the boy. "Kota!" Deku waves smiling, "here let me show you your room" the teen says taking the kid by his hand bring him to where he would be staying for away.

Sure Kota knew the basics of why he was here, Mandalay explained everything to him and asked if he was willing to help. Kota owed Deku for saving his life, plus he had a good heart so he was willing to help everyone out. Once he was settled in they took Kota to the hospital, "room 187 on the right" the receptionist says.

Kota had to go alone after all she freaked out when she saw the teens and grown-ups, yet when she saw Kota she just stared. "hey eri...erm I'm Kota" the boy says gently closing the door behind him.
