My Hero Academia: Fallen Angel (Hawks Love Story)

Second Contact Pt. 1

As we all returned to the dorms, everyone chatted amongst themselves about their training and my demonstrations. "I can't wait to see what you'll say next about our quirks! I'm going to bring my quirk notes next time!" Izuku said excitedly. "Go ahead. That'll actually help me get a better understanding of your guys' quirks if I can see what you've written about them." I replied casually. "I'm probably not going to get any improvements because of the quirk I have." Mineta spoke up, looking dejected about his dilemma, and Tsu nodded in sad agreement with a 'ribbit'. "Hey, don't go giving up just yet. I'm sure I'll find something to help you guys out. Even if it's something small, it'll still help you out in the long run." I reassured them, patting Tsu on her shoulder. "Waah! Nara, you're so amazing!" Mineta exclaimed as he went to hug me, one of his hands aimed to grip my ass, but Kuro enveloped me before shoving him off. "Try that again and you'll stay with your bleeding scalp during fights." I warned, hinting that I won't help him with his improvements, and he became dejected again. "Sorry." He replied weakly, and I walked past him as Denki helped him up.

We soon reached the dorms, and Mina immediately came up to me and interlocked our arms. "C'mon, girls! Let's go to Nara's room!" She called out with a grin, but the boys began to protest. "But we wanted to talk to her more about our quirks!" Kirishima whined. "Training's over. You can talk to her about it tomorrow." She told him while waving dismissively before quickly dragging me up the girls' stairway, the other girls following close behind. We soon reached my room, Mina opening it and dragging us in, but they all paused to look around my room in amazement. "Whoa, Nara! You already decorated your room?" Ochaco asked. "Yeah. You guys were busy at the time, so I just decided to do it myself. Didn't you guys notice when you came looking for me last time?" I replied before questioning as I plopped down on my bed, and Mina gave me a teasing smirk. "We got distracted by you making out with your man, remember?" She said, making the girls giggle and blush at the memory, and I glared a bit at her as I felt my cheeks redden in embarrassment. "Can you not tease me about my relationship, please?" I requested, and she laughed. "Okay, okay. Everyone, gather around! We're going to teach Nara the recent trends!" Mina announced as she sat on one of my cushions at my coffee table. "You guys don't have to do that." I told them with a sweat drop, feeling like this was unnecessary, but Mina deadpanned at me. "Would you rather stay out of the loop and go back to helping the boys with their quirks?" She questioned, and I sighed. "All right, fine." I relented as everyone sat around my room. Ochaco sat with me on my bed while Hagakure sat with Mina, Tsu and Jiro sat on the carpet, and Momo sat on my desk chair.

For the next few hours, they told me about the latest things that were popular and slangs that people use nowadays, joking around and laughing about some of them. Mina even went as far as trying to teach me the choreography to some of the popular songs. I was embarrassed to learn since I'm not used to dancing like her, but she said I did pretty well, the other girls complimenting me as well. We eventually went back downstairs to have dinner with the boys, but as we ate, Tokoyami came to me for a brief moment. "Nara, I wanted to let you know that Hawks messaged me some time ago. He's unable to return to the school because he got called in to help Endeavor and the others after helping his agency, and he's unsure when he'll be back. He said for us not to worry, and that he'll be back soon." He told me, and my eyes widened in surprise before I gave him a weak smile. "Okay. Thanks, Tokoyami." I replied, trying not to show my disappointment. He looked at me unsure for a second before nodding and walking off. That night, I had trouble going to sleep. I had gotten used to cuddling up with Keigo under his wings, and it wasn't the same when I used a regular blanket and my pillows. I didn't fall asleep until it was nearly 1 am, and I did while having the feathers on my necklace resting on my cheek to comfort me.

Since I fell asleep late, I didn't wake up until about 8 am, and everyone had left for patrol by then. Like Tokoyami said, Keigo still hadn't returned, and I was starting to get a bit worried. What was going on that he wasn't sure when he'd be back? I sighed as I went to gather the trash, holding the feathers of my necklace in one hand and gently rubbing them with my thumb. To my surprise, the feathers fluffed in response and wiggled out of my hand, floating up to gently brush my cheek and press on my lips before turning lifeless again. I was stunned for a second before blushing with a giggle. I thought Keigo was too far or the feathers had lost connection with him for them to do anything, but with what just happened, that means they're still connected to each other. Maybe he's alright after all. With that in mind, I continued collecting the trash with a smile on my face.
