Maybe he wasn't the worst to be around.

She woke up, she was late for school but at least she was up.

She didn't bothering rushing. If she was already late, might as well take your time. She was exhausted, for no particular reason.

She tried pulling open her burgundy blinds, hoping the blinding sunlight will help wake her up. It didn't work; it only irritated her further.

She needed something to refresh her. She needed a shower, or something that gives the same magical effect like you're renewed. But she hates morning showers, and she didn't have much time on her hands.

She didn't even play her morning music, the thought of hearing anything made her head hurt.

Everything was proving to be very troublesome for her. Something was bothering her. She had a prodding voice in the back of her head telling her somethings wrong.

She doesn't let people tell her what to do, but when it comes to herself, she always trusts gut intuition.

Everything was adding up for her to stay home. She slept in, was irritated the moment she woke up, has a headache and sickly feeling in her stomach. But, she has to take school somewhat seriously and if there proves to be trouble, she would like to be the one who fixes it.

So after getting ready for a shitty day, she headed out. To brighten her day from the gloomy depths it's already in, she stopped by her favourite coffee shop and welcomed the strong aroma of the brewing beans.

The greetings of the workers she's so familiar with was nice too. A coffee shop is Lena's favourite environment, especially the ones in libraries. She enjoys nothing more than just sitting her with a sketchbook, book or notebook in her hand and working away with a coffee in the other. The calming atmosphere of soft music, quiet chit-chat and other working students made it one of her favourite places.

Lena is a very extroverted girl, but sometimes alone time with her favourite things is something she really needs. The pull towards one of her happy places was almost strong enough to want her to skip school.

And she should've.

Because the entrance to said place was crowded by cameras and news workers, and random civilians who think they have a right to stand on their grounds. She pushes through everyone, not bothering with common respect. People notice the uniform and move for her, but one annoying reporter just had to get in her way.

"Student, student! Can you tell us what it's like working under All Might?" A microphone is shoved in her face. She glares up at the woman wearing heels.

"No, I cannot. Leave the school grounds, you have no right being here." She didn't want to enter when so many people were crowded, and risk someone entering with her.

"Just one word, please!" Her pleads rang in Lena's ear like the most annoying bell.

"As you can see, I'm fucking late. Now step away from me before this coffee ends up on that fucking blouse." Short fuse? Yes. She still knows how to hold her tongue for adults, but this wasn't the time. She didn't have the energy.

"I'm asking- no- demanding you all to move away from the entrance." She shouts out, her authoritative voice sending a clear message. People do as she's told, mindlessly following a teenager, aware of the power she must have to attend this school.

"Further, this is purely for the safety of you and my school. I don't want you getting hurt because I'll get in trouble." When their distances enough, she throws a wall of fire up, blocking people from entering as she does. She only drops the wall when the school doors are closed.
