I slowly open my eyes to a white ceiling. I turn my head to notice a white IV is placing on me. "So your awake." I hear a deep voice say as I turn to notice Shota beside me. "How long have I been out?" I ask. "Just about a half hour nothing to major. The media is gone thanks to your stalling, the police have already left and spoke with the principal." Shota said. "What about the students? Was anything missing? Was it villains?" I ask slowly sitting up.

You shouldn't get up so quickly, you did faint using your quirk too much. No, nothing was missing and the students are ok. So far we have no idea what caused our barrier to be destroyed like that. The police and the principal will look more into." Shota says answering me. "Well that's a relief the students are safe and nothing was taken, but now we need to be more careful." I say laying back down. Silence is in the air. "You can leave now shota, I will be fine. If you could please get me recovery girl and then I will be on my way soon. Thank you for staying beside me." I say with a smile.

Shota scratches his head and just looks at me. "Is there something else I need to know? You look like you need to say something." I ask. "Well it's been a few days, I was wondering what your answer was?" he says scratching his head still. "My answer?" I say confused. "Yeah, your answer. To you marrying me." It suddenly hit me like a brick. I wasn't just drunk and thinking that moment happened in my head. It actually happened and the few days he gave me to think about it were the few days I thought it was just me being drunk and didn't. I put my head in my hands. "That was real? That conversation was real." I say out loud quietly. "Did you think it was all in your head?" Shota asked. "I...I thought it never happened, you looked fine. You didn't seem to talk to me about it or anything. I thought I was too drunk and never....it was real..." I say.

"If you need more time, I can give you more time." shota said. "NO! I...I...just need one more day...that's all." I say with my head down. "Ok" Shota says nodding his head. He soon stands up and is about to head towards the door when I grab onto his sleeve. He turns back to look at me. "What?" "Why? Why are you helping me? We haven't seen each other for two years and all of sudden. You are willing to take this big decision in marriage. What of your so called dates you had and ran late for. Were you not interested in them? What if they still want you and get upset you chose me. A girl you haven't seen." I say quietly to that last part looking down. "You have nothing to worry about. I am helping you, because it will benefit for the both of us. We are both of age that we should be married already and if you want to live on our own. You need to get married...plus those dates never really understood me and how I am always busy. Mic just set me up on them so I could go out more. Your the only few people who know how I am and...your the only one I let call me by my first name. If you haven't noticed." he says mumbling the last part quietly. "Now that I think about it...I am the only one to call him Shota. Mic does from time to time, and I never heard Nerumi call him that. Just Senpai or Aizawa." I think as I take all this information to consideration.

"I'll see you later." Shota says and leaves the room just as recovery girl walks in. "Oh good! Your awake!" recovery girl says as she explains to me to rest up ad not use my quirk for the rest of the day and possibly tomorrow if I still feel a bit dizzy. I thank her and bow as I grab my things from the teachers office and leave the school. The damage in the entrance seemed to disappear and now it's filled with construction all over it. I see the pro hero power loader helping the new constructions with the entrance.

When I had returned home, it had just gotten dark. I noticed I had gotten a call from mom, but she didn't leave a message so I didn't pay no mind. Usually, when she doesn't leave a message it wasn't really that important. Grabbing my keys from my purse, I noticed from the corner of my eye, the door was opened a bit. I start to panic a tiny, but still calm in case it's a villain inside still. "Please god let it not be his doing." I think as I slowly open the front door. The house looks trashed as picture frames were tilted on the walls. Broken glass and vases are shattered everywhere.  I look around and notice him or mom. Walking slowly trying not to make any sound as I check room after room. The last one is mine. You turn the knob and look around. Suddenly, I see a shadow appear from the corner of my eye. I was about to flip them over to the ground until I head a yelp when I roughly grabbed their wrist and noticed it was mom.
