As We Meet Again

[Chapter Two]

I can't sleep.

I roll out of bed, pulling on a hoodie and some sweatpants. I grab my phone, my wallet and my keys, slipped my shoes on at the door and went outside.

It's 1:58 am

I look up from my phone and keep walking towards the small convinience store, connecting my headphones and placing them on my ears.

As i walk in side i just browse drowsily through the different types of ramen, noodles and toppings.
I walk over to the drinks isle, bopping my head to the beat of 'My Ordinary Life'.

I let my fingers slide over all the different cartons of milk.
'Who would need so much milk?'

I chuckle at my own thoughts and grab an ice-tea from between the cans on the mirroring shelf.

I walk back over to the ramen packets and i choose a kinda-spicy brand, picking it up and walking towards the cachier.

After i paid and exited the small building, i headed to the soba shop close to here.
Even though i know that it's...

2:31 am

Maybe he is there? Probably not...

As i looked inside i'm greeted with the half-half head of hair that belongs to my best friend.

"Shoto!" I call, taking off my headphones as i walk inside, the warm cozy feeling contrasting the cold air from outside.

The boy looks up from his bowl of cold soba, his eyes widening slightly.

"Saiko? What are you doing here? it's already past midnight." He says, looking down at his watch.

"Couldn't sleep" i say with a shrug
"Wanna walk home together?"

The boy looks back at his soba, probably thinking about the offer.

"Sure"

After he placed his almost empty bowl on the counter, paying for his food and thanking the waiter, we headed back outside.

I shivered as the chilly air touched my face again, snuggling into shoto's left side as we walked.
We talked about how school was, and how it was almost time to sign up to UA.

We both want to be heroes, though shoto's dad kinda forces him to be one.
His dad is the number 2 hero, but is a complete prick. He only married shoto's mom for her quirk, and is trying to train shoto to be number 1 hero and do the same.

Shoto hates him, his biggest nightmare is to become like his father.
I don't blame him...

His mom though, she is an amazing mother...
She- did pour boiling water on her son because of insanity, but that was created because of endeavors abuse and is being treated.

I stop walking and wave goodbye to shoto, heading inside to my apartment. He lives only a few streets away, so we almost always walk home together.

I unlock my door and walk inside, throwing my bag on my couch and flicking on my electric kettle.

I grab a bowl from my cabinet and set it on the counter, looking for a set of chopsticks.

The kettle flicks off, signaling that the water is ready.
I pour the water over my ramen and decide to use a fork instead, seeing that all the chopsticks are dirty.

As i sit, i get a notification saying:

3:45 AM

Reminder for 5 am:
Very important test today! Study!

I sigh.
"I guess i'm pulling an all-nighter"
I say mumbling.

I finish eating and walk over to the fridge, pulling a large iced-coffee out and walking back to the couch.

Scrolling

5:26 AM

"I should get ready"
I hop in the shower and put on my uniform, grab my bag and look for my phone and keys again.

Once i found them i walked over to my fridge, taking out another coffee.

5:52 AM

I arrive at the bus station, waiting gor the bus that arrives at 6:00.
