To be honest, I've always been a bit of an introvert. Rather staying inside and reading a good book or watching a movie, than going out and drinking on weekends or going partying.

The problem was I had just lost my job. It wasn't anything special, just a plain desk job at a company building that was near my place. So, having to go out, look for jobs, plan for interviews, get ready for those interviews, and actually make a good impression was a real big pain.

As I was looking online for openings to any job that would be quiet there was a knock at the door. "Be right there," I said as I stood up from the couch. I was wearing just some baggy black sweatpants that were definitely too loose around the hips, and a plain oversized tank top.

"Hey, (Y/N)." The raven-haired man said once the door opened. "I thought I'd stop by. I have a proposition for you. Mind if I come in?" Shouta asked as I stepped aside. He took that as an invitation in and sat on the couch next to where I was just sitting.

"It's unlike you to stop by in the middle of the day. What's up?" I asked before sitting down next to him on the couch, hugging one knee to my chest as I looked at him.

We've known each other for a while. It was just around when we both graduated High School that we met at a cute little café. That was when I was much more social, but we've stayed in touch and he comes over every once in a while to catch up.

"You were talking about how your job fell through right? Well, I was talking to a few co-workers, and apparently, there is an opening for a secretary type job. In the office is usually quiet and you don't have to deal with rowdy students." Shouta said as he scratched his stubbly cheek, glancing at me for a moment before looking at the laptop that I set on the coffee table.

"Ah? Really? I mean I wouldn't want to be a bother or anything! Am I even qualified to work at UA? I was never a hero or anything. I didn't even take the hero course." I said, starting to get nervous. There were probably so many more qualified people to work at such a prestigious place.

Shouta seemed to sigh deeply, "I wouldn't have told you about it if I didn't think you were qualified. Plus, I already submitted your resume."

And just like that, I got an interview and started working at UA within a couple weeks.

It was a huge school. Every day on the way in, the school grounds buzzed with students and it always made me a bit uneasy. Although, once I got to the office, the buzz just seemed to be a quiet hum, like an air conditioner in the background.

Shouta came to visit me every morning before class started and I couldn't help but chuckle at how tired he always looked.

One morning as I was typing files into the database Shouta arrived in the morning like always, I could hear his usual knock on my desk, but there was a different voice that spoke that wasn't his, which made me look in that direction. "Oh? This is where you go every morning before class Eraserhead? I can't blame you."

Instead of it just being the sleepy looking Shouta, there was a blonde man with a speaker around his neck and orange-tinted sunglasses. Why was he wearing sunglasses inside?

"Good Morning (Y/N). I'm sorry for distracting you." Shouta said with a nod, "Sorry for bringing the loud one. He wouldn't stop bothering me and followed me here."

"Oh, that's fine, really! Um, I'm (Y/N) (L/N), It's nice to meet you. You're one of Shouta's friends?" I ask as I tilt my head a bit.

"Yes!"

"No."

Each of them said in unison and it made me chuckle.

The blonde reached and grabbed my hand, holding it in both of his, "I'm Hizashi Yamada. I'm not surprised Aizawa comes here every morning when such a beautiful flower seemed to have bloomed here without my knowing." He looked from above his glasses and gave a bit smile, raising an eyebrow.

I couldn't help but blush slightly at the compliment. Shouta hit him on the top of the head, "Stop harassing ."

"Watch the hair!" Yamada said and smoothed it back after letting go of my hand.

I smiled widely looking at the two of them and couldn't help but chuckle, "It's nice to meet you, Yamada."
