Hey it's me again, the author. This episode starts with another dream-memory so this happend in the past, specifically in middle school. (I might delete this info bc it will be probably obvious from the story)
----------------------------------------------------------

"Why doesn't anyone care?" You look at the black haired boy who is putting bandages on your hand. "What do you mean? Your confusion makes him very obviously concerned. "Don't you see it?"

You shake your head in disagreement. He looks even more concerned.

"You always come into school covered in bruises, scratches and overall beaten up since you practically started middle school. You keep getting bullied for this very stupid reason being quirkless. And nobody, not the teachers, no students not even anybody else from the staff bothers to just ask. Nobody even looks concerned when you come here all beaten up."

Looking at his face almost makes you cry. You can clearly see that he is hopeless about helping you. No matter how many times he will stand up for you, neither how many times he will help you and comfort you, the feeling of being a failure is still here. For both of you.

You stand up and hug him. "Please Shota don't blame yourself. I know your trying your best to keep me safe but it's just not possible. Not at this point. You don't have to waste your time on me anymore. Just find other cooler people you can be with."

He pulls away from your hug, looking extremely angry. "Y/n never say something like that again!" He almost shouts, scaring you off a little.

"You are the most important person in my life, I'm not just going to walk away knowing that one day you might get into a dangerous situation where I could have protected you but I didn't."

You can hear his voice trembling as he fights with his tears. You feel your own burning in your eyes.

"I will always be here for you. I want to protect you with my life. I want to be your hero, who will always save you. No matter how much will people hate you. I will always be by your side."

You feel tears running down your face. You knew that he cared about you but you never thought that you ment so much for him. "I-..." The overwhelming amount of emotion is not letting you speak so you just hug him again.

He places his hands your back. His arms feel really warm.

You open your eyes to realise that feeling is no longer a dream. You are laying on Shota's chest, he has his arms wrapped around you and he's peacefully sleeping.

You carefully get up from under his hand, making sure not to wake him up and walk into a different room, kitchen apparently.

Hizashi is standing next to the kitchen unit, making breakfast.

"Good morning." You hesitantly walk in. He looks up and smiles at you. "Morning! Sit down, the breakfast is almost ready." You don't feel really hungry yet but you don't want to seem rude.

"Can I use the bathroom?"  "Sure make yourself at home."

You turn around, take your bag that was in the hallway and then go to the bathroom. There you take a bath, take off the bandages and wash both of your spraying clothing. You wear your last resort cloth. It's normal jeans, black shirt and a bit oversized hoodie. You put the spray clothes on the side of the bathtub to let it dry and leave the bathroom.

Hizashi is already sitting at the table eating breakfast. You join him and he starts asking you some questions.

"So your name is Y/n right?" You just nod so he continues. "You're the girl that Aizawa spent so much time with in middle school?" Another nod as an answer. "Did you know that he prioritised you over anything?"
