It will always be you (Shouta Aizawa x OC)

First Date

I have made bad decisions in my life. Things that I'm not proud of, and wish I can erase from my memory. This decision that I have just made has been the worst one since I got back to Japan. "HE ASKED YOU ON A DATE?!" Telling the girls that I was going on a date with Aizawa was an honest mistake. Not that I didn't want to keep them out of the loop, but because I knew they were going to pick on me. "Where are you guys going?" "What are you going to wear?" Rumi and Yu asked through our video chat. I set my laptop inside my walk in closet while they were watching me going through all my clothes. "Most importantly, what kind of sexy lingerie are you going to wear under?" Nemuri asked in her seductively voice. The girls laughed at me as they saw me get flustered. "I don't know where we're going, he just told me to wear something comfortable, and I am NOT going to wear anything seductive under! It's a date not a hookup." I'm almost 30 years old, I'm feeling like a teenager. Being nervous, getting teased by my friends, getting worried if the date is going to go well or not.

"You know, Aizawa has been looking a lot happier recently. At school, his students don't seem scared of him as much as they used to be." "Now that you mentioned Nemuri, the other day he came by the agency and he asked one of the staff members how they were doing." What the fuck is that supposed to mean? "That reminds me! Kamui Woods told me that yesterday's mission, that he swore he saw Aizawa smile." The girls wow in synchrony like if they're telling conspiracy theories. "You guys! He's just an introvert, not an emotionless person!" My palm meets my face quickly at the realization of the dumb thing that just came out of my mouth.

After another half an hour of catching up with each other, we said our goodnights and logged off. I wish I was able to at least get a few hours of sleep but I got zero. I've been on many dates before and I have known Aizawa since we were 5 years old. This isn't even our first date with each other. So, why was I so nervous?? I decided to just get a head start and get ready, since he wanted to meet at the train station at 9:00am.

I got to the station early, but all I was able to do was stare at my own reflection and curse myself out. "This is so dumb. Even though I went with the clean up makeup look, you can tell I still dolled up!" My hair was in two low spiky buns with some of my shorter silver/blonde hair in front of my ears. I went with some high waisted black pants and a yellow crew neck tank top. Instead of my red high tops I decided to switch them over to some black ones with white shoelaces. I decided to look around and my eyes quickly landed on my date. He was wearing his typical outfit. Black pants, black shirt and half his hair is up. "Hey!" I waved at him with a smile. I realize I was a bit too loud since a few people turned too.

Cool, I just embarrassed myself.

He approached me and I can feel him scanning my whole body. Was I under dress? Did I needed to dress more fancier? Or more comfortable? I feel so shy all of a sudden now. "You're here early. You're not known as an early bird." He said in his usual monotone. "I know, I know. I didn't want to be the reason we missed the train, so I made it my goal to get here early." I wasn't lying. It is ironic that one of the fastest pro-heroes in the world, always shows up late to everything.

I followed Aizawa through the mayhem, "So where are we going so early?" I asked, trying to figure out what train we're taking. "Here's your train ticket. Our gate is right ahead." He hands me over it and my eyes shuts up when I read the destination. "Osaka?!" I look up and he's already passed the ticket scanner. Ignoring me as he continues to walk towards the train. I quickly passed my ticket and caught up to him. "What are we going to do there?" I nod him with my elbow trying to get him to look at me. "You'll see when we get there." I let out a sigh. "You're still a mystery man after all these years aren't you?" A chuckle was the only response I got. I looked closer at his face, and my friends were right. He doesn't look as sleepy as he usually does. I can tell he even cleaned up his beard. I wonder if he thought he was going the extra mile if he had a clean shave. The train soon arrived and we sat across from each other with a table between us. Aizawa put the bag that he was carrying on top of it and took two bento boxes. "I brought us some breakfast for the ride." I opened my box and it was some pieces of eggs with rice, veggies, and salmon. The best part of the food was that it was packed in a cute design. For drinks he brought my favorite matcha boba tea can. "Thank you so much for the food! I haven't had a bento box in forever!" I start to dig in like someone who hasn't eaten for days. It may be simple, but something about the food warms my heart.
