The Sun and The Moon *Hitoshi Shinso*

fifteen

My head was pounding when I woke up. I noticed that I was in Recovery Girl's office. I could still taste blood in my mouth and cringed, noting that it was left over blood from Sachiko.

"Kaede?" A familiar voice met my ears and I turned my head to see Hitoshi sitting on the bed. Immediately a smile grew on my lips as I looked at him.

"H-Hey," I mumbled, my throat was dry amd my voice sounded hoarse.

Hitoshi let out a small sigh and rested his face in his hands before looking at me, "You can't do that to you asshole," He muttered angrily.

I looked at him, confused. Do what? Then it hit me. A grin grew on my lips as I recalled those three words I said to him before fighting with Sachiko. "It was totally worth it," I stated bluntly.

Hitoshi rolled his eyes and spoke, "You scared the hell out of me," He mumbled. His cheeks started to burn as he looked at me, "Did...did you mean what you said though?" He asked quietly.

I smiled and grabbed his arm, tugging it around until I was able to grab his hand. I nodded my head, "Every word of it," I informed.

His cheeks turned a darker shade of red, and he looked away. "I..I love you too," He mumbled quietly, his ears going a deep shade of red.

I grinned, deciding to mess with him a little bit. "Sorry, what? I couldn't hear you," I joked.

He shot me a glare, "Don't make me say it again," He stated.

"I'm kidding, Hito-kun," I smiled causing him to sigh as he used a hand to run his fingers through my hair.

"You really did a number on Shiroshima," He said, referring to Sachiko, "She might have scars like yours, just diagonal. She have bite scars on her arm and shoulder though. You got her deep, Kaede,"

"You think I went over-"

"Glad to see you're awake," Recovery Girl spoke, causing Hitoshi to jerk back, "I spoke to Aizawa, you've got two days off of school. Now, I suggest you remain in bed during those two days. And no funny business either," She eyed Hitoshi who blushed.

"Am I able to go change and go home?" I asked, realizing I was still in my P.E. outfit.

As soon as I got home, I showered. Everyone left me alone, having saw the defeat on the TV, and let me relax. It wasn't until my door opened did I look up from my phone. I smiled seeing Hitoshi standing there.

"Hi," I greeted, sitting up. I winced slightly as I was still sore from getting hit by Sachiko's fists.

Hitoshi was dressed in casual clothes. He stepped into the room and closed the door behind him. He remained silent as he kicked off his shoes and walked towards the end of the bed with a small sigh.

"Are..you okay?" I asked, my smile slowly falling.

Hitoshi crawled onto the bed and laid down, place a single behind his head and looking at the roof before speaking, "I'm fine, but are you?" He turned to look at me.

"Yes, why wouldn't I be?" I questioned nervously.

Hitoshi pushed my shirt up to look at the dark bruising on my sides and abdomen. He then looked at me with a frown, "Recovery Girl said that whenever she kicked you, she broke a rib. She fixed it as best as she could, but she still worries about it. Before she won, I know she said something to you. You completely gave up on the fight, Kaede. That's not at all like you," He mumbled, "You're father also called me, said that something was wrong with you,"

I pushed my shirt back down and laid next to him with a small sigh. I shrugged my shoulders slightly, "I'm just thinking," I gave him a vague answer.

Hitoshi's eyes snapped towards me and he moved to look at me, "About?"

I cuddled into his side, wrapping an arm around him while my leg dangled over his. "Miyamoto said something to me, I shouldn't dwell on it, but I can't help it," I informed.

Hitoshi began to absentmindly play with the fur on my tail with the hand that had wrapped around me. "What'd she say?" He asked.

I looked at him with a frown, "She...she was being sarcastic but she asked me if I was trying to prove that I could...become a....a uh, villian. With my quirk," I whispered quietly.

He remained silent and looked at me as I continued, "It just..stunned me, I guess. It made me think if people actually thought of me as a villian, and if they didn't they probably do now," I sighed quietly, "I know I can never actually become a villian because I'm not that way. I don't get the thrill that villains get whenever they hurt someone. I feel guilty and worried,"

Hitoshi smiled down at me and spoke, "That's why I love you, Kaede. You wouldn't hurt a fly, but if it was to keep someone safe, you'd do it without a second thought," His smile fell as he spoke, "When you actually started to fight, she was also saying something and it obviously got to you," He stated.

"She called you a future villain and in some ways, I snapped at her. You're not capable of being a villain, no offense, but I just can't see it. You don't use your quirk unless you deem it necessary," I ranted.

Before I could continue, Hitoshi grabbed my bruised jaw as softly as he could and pulled me into a kiss. It took a moment before I melted into the kiss.

He pulled away and placed his finger over my lips, "Babe, to start with, don't ever get physical with someone over me. Yell at them, sure, but don't actually become physical. And second, you're tired. Don't argue with that fact either. You're getting angry which usually means you're tired, so get some sleep. I'll be here when you wake up,"

I looked at him with a frown on my lips, but nodded my head. I was pretty tired, and getting more tired since Hitoshi's body heat was comforting.

When I woke up, it was eight at night. The bed was empty though. I frowned, slightly angry and pulled my gray blanket over my shoulders. I held the blanket close to me as I walked out of the room. I walked down the hall with a tired look on my face.

I turned the corner to look into the kitchen and immediately saw Hitoshi talking to Dad. I walked over, and forced myself into Hitoshi's arms by crawling underneath the one resting against the bar. His cheeks reddened slightly but he carried on with listening to Dad. He did wrap both arms around me and rest his chin against my head.

Dad looked at me and chuckled quietly, "Seems that she wasn't ready for either one of you to wake up," He teased, making me scowl at him.

Hitoshi only smiled a bit and spoke, "So, Shou, Natsumi, and Rei all have your quirk?" He asked curiously.

Dad nodded while he poured the batter onto the pan, I peek over the bar after Hitoshi had set me on a stool so he could get better comfortable while holding me in his arms. Dad was making pancakes.

"Yup, I'm glad to have offspring who weild the flight quirk. Shin'ichi surprised us when he showed to have both quirks," Dad informed, "He's already shaping into a great hero,"

I shifted around to lean my head against Hitoshi's chest with a yawn. After a moment, Hitoshi picked me up and moved to where he was the one sitting in the stool and held me in his lap.

A smile grew on my lips as I shifted around to get more comfortable, but my heart skipped a beat in my chest when I felt something poking me.
