Saffron (Aizawa x Reader)

9) Dern

You guys talked for more, just short and simple. At some point, it'll be a comfortable silence to take in the morning sun which was making its way slowly. Whatever this may be, it makes you feel content. 

"So, Aizawa-kun. How exactly does your cool quirk of yours work?"

Aizawa looks over at you with slight amusement.

"Hm, I don't think I'd like to tell you. L/n-chan"

You scoffed at his words, he wanted to hear something a tad bit different.

"Would you pretty please tell me, Shota-kun~"
You said teasingly as you leaned in closer to the man's side.

The man turned to you fully as he put one leg crossed over the railing and leaned into your face.

"Much better."
His eyes held such emptiness and his voice stayed monotone. Yet it gives you shivers all over your body. He smirked slightly and looked away.

"Erasure, I can erase people's quirk by looking at them." 
You hummed in acknowledgment as you looked at his facial features, it was a bit hard to define the details but he was looking mighty attractive with that man-bun.

Erase my desire for you, Shota.

"What's yours?"
He asked making your eyes widen a bit. You become fidgety as you turn a full 180 to face the inside of the building.

"It's really not a great quirk," You stated as you awkwardly laughed. Your facial expression drops ever so slightly.

"People call it repulsive,"
You paused a bit, suddenly memories of it flowing back. You let them and you turn around to face the man.

"Go on,"
He was not fazed by your words and continued to look at you intensely with the same darkness of comfort.

You took in a deep breath as you looked back at the obsidian black eyes.
"Dream. I make people re-live in the most eventful time of their lives in their dream world."

There was more to this. You could not possibly tell him though. The details are probably unspeakable.

"I know you wanna say more to it, y/n.."
Shota said as he shifted a bit closer to your side. It was as if he did not want to create discomfort with his interaction but still trying to give reassurance.

"....more specifically, they were put back to the most tragic one of their lives,"
You said as you looked down at the hand. You had them painted in various colors. You love to do it, even if they brings darkness to everyone around you, you want to make them feel less scary.

"By touching them."
Continuing your words you expected the man to simply back off or walk away. Just as most people did. It was for the best if they did before you get attached too.

"Powerful quirk, I'm sure there is more to it."
He looks down at your fidgety hands but shifts quickly to your face.

"You did that?" He said pointing at your hand. You turned your attention to the painted nails and held them up at him.

"To make it less intimidating and.." You brought the hand face to you to have a clear view.

"Makes a great hobby nonetheless. But the quirk," You sighed as you brought it down to your lap yet again.

"I did not want to find out what would be more."
You half-heartedly smile up at him as you gaze into the morning sun as it shows its presence.

The sun was now making its way to shine and the streets were now starting to crowd as the noises of people reached your ears. The man's feature was now more visible. A white tee with a black sweatpants. His hair is now in an imperfect bun which compliments that jawline. His eyes hold a tiredness as dark circles under his eyes make him insanely attractive.  The sun was shining onto his features like a golden strike. 

What a sight for sore eyes.

"Must be hard to take all the responsibilities of such strong power."
He said as he dragged his half-lidded eyes to meet yours.

"I'm not sure..." You answered as you smiled awkwardly at the man and rubbed behind your neck to hide your awkwardness.

"You know, one of my students has a mind control quirk. People were scared to be around him at first because he could easily manipulate them. However, he soon proves to be a great hero by heart.."
Aizawa said as a comforting gesture of his former student's quirk. He returns a small smile and lets himself down from the railing with the hand extending to give you a hand. Hesitantly you took it.

"Let's eat all those sappy stuff away, I'm sure you're quite famished"
He stated as he moved his hand to let you down. Agree. This is getting a bit sappy. You need energy and some good ass food. You grab your coffee cup and let him lead you out. But interrupted by a phone call.

"A PHONE CALL IS HERE!"

how embarrassing- I got to change this ringtone.

" 'Lo?" 
You answered as the man in front of you waited.

"Y/n, you awake?" 
It was Mina. She sounded dead tired but a few girls could be heard from the background.

"Yea been for a while, you ok?" 
You slightly giggled as you heard the rough voice of Mina. Probably still having a hangover.

 "Yeah, just tired. Me and the girls slept in my room. We are getting ready to eat."
She answered.

"I will get ready then, see you soon pinks" 
"okayy, see ya"

~beep~

"Your friend?"  
The man asked as you walked towards him with a smile.

"Yes, she asked me to join breakfast...."
You said receiving a hum from the man before you.

"It's alright, maybe next time then?" 
He said knowing full well about the situation.

"Of course,"
You said as you both headed to the lift. 

"And thank you for listening to me rambling about my life. I hope it didn't burden you with all this unnecessary information—"

"If it was a burden I wouldn't have asked, and don't worry your secrets are safe with me."
Shota cuts you off with a small smile forming on his face as he leads you in the lift. You laughed lightly as you headed in and pressed your floor.

"Consider me a close friend. Who you knew for a short time during this vacation fling."
You stated quite stinging yourself with your own words.

"Already planning to"
Shota answered as the doors of the lift closed to take you to your floor.
