Chapter 7: Training

Y/n's POV:

   Its been awhile since the incident at the U.S.J and I'm fully recovered, sadly I will have scars though. One thing has been bothering me though, when I came back Shouto hadn't talked to me that whole day and I heard from Eijiro that Shouto was one of the people most worried about me. I mean he still walks me home but he keeps his distance, its like we went backwards in our friendship, it hurts me for some reason. The other day I tried making a conversation about something we used to talk about but he just walked away.

   I can't really look at him anymore without feeling something tearing my heart apart, but one person who has made up for that is Eijiro. I feel like he's been talking to me way more than he used to. Maybe seeing me almost die sparked something in him. I just still feel like its my fault Shouto won't talk to me, maybe I scared him when I went on a rampage at the U.S.J, probably. 

   Now I am walking to school all alone, Shouto didn't bother knocking on my door this time and just left completely. I feel vulnerable all alone, why though? I used to be so strong and walked around at night with nobody around, and now I feel like a lost puppy without it's master. Damn that's low. You know what? Shouto just left me showing me how weak I actually became, I don't need anyone to rely on, only myself. From now on I'll go back to training myself to fully master my quirk and train my mental state. Since I completely lost it while fighting Noumu and Tomura I feel like I need to make my mind stronger so when I fight them again I won't lose it and almost be killed. I refuse to die.

   I finally made it the U.A, the wind was slowly blowing through my H/C H/L hair, I looked up at the clear blue sky, no clouds to be seen. A perfect day. 

   "Y/n!" I hear a soft voice call. I look behind me to see Izuku running up to me smiling.

   "Hey Izuku, whats up?" I said now smiling and walking towards the front doors of the large school. 

   "Nothing, hows All might, even though I know it might bother you, I just still can't believe that you live with him!" He says with his eyes sparkling, I just laugh.

   "Its ok, I sort of knew this would happen when you found out." I laugh, "And he's ok, a little stressed though, he says the school is about to host something big, but everything stresses him out so I wouldn't worry" Izuku then looked at me with admiration.

   "Man I bet he's amazing, does he take care of the house well? Does he write down sayings he could say while arriving so he can sound heroic?" He asks.

   "A little and yes." I say while smirking. "He's gone a lot so I take care of the house the most, and sometimes he'll start muttering to himself and then write down something in his book of 'Heroic sayings I could say while entering a room'." I look over to see Izuku muttering to himself and writing the stuff I said into his journal.

   "Hey Izuku." I say more serious while walking more slowly down the corridor. He looks up from his notebook confused. "How much have you mastered One for All?"

   "Not much, the other day when we were fighting villains I managed to punch the Noumu thing without breaking any bones, but that was it." He says ashamed.

   "Hey that's better, I have been thinking of tips that may help you but I don't want to say them here because people could be listening." I whisper, he nods. We both enter the classroom now talking about other stuff but were interrupted by Shouto coughing.

   "Excuse me." He says strenly, I look at him without smiling, he makes eye contact with me for a second but then looks away and pushes by. In that one second I saw something I never wanted to see again, the sadness and hatred he had at the beginning of the year. I look down and walk to my seat, Izuku gives me an empathetic smile, I do one back. The door slides open, I look up and see Eijiro smiling at me, I smile back and then lay my head on my desk.
