First POV:

It wasn't suppose to rain today. There were only fluffy white clouds floating admist the blue sky earlier. When exactly did those dark clouds appear? I really wasn't prepared for this whatsoever! Now I'm gonna get soaked. I was now standing outside, the school's canopy being the only thing between the rain and me.

I groan to myself as I took a step forward which immediately led to taking a step back. I continued this process while debating with myself on whether getting sick was really worth the risk. I really wanted groan as loud as I could to show my irritation before letting out a silent scream when I feel someone grab my shoulder. "(L/N)-san! What are you still doing here?!" You sighed with relief at Nejire's familiar face.

"I didn't bring an umbrella."

I see that both Mirio and Tamaki are in the same exact predicament as me, both under the same umbrella of Nejire's. "Did everyone forget their umbrellas today?" Tamaki hung his head in shame, meanwhile, Mirio simply laughed it off. "We didn't know it would start pouring like this!" I grimace at both Nejire's and Mirio's chipper mood, mine being slightly on the negative side. "Ne! Would you like to join us, (L/N)-san?" I stare at them then looked at the pouring rain then back at them.

They were already struggling staying under the umbrella and I'd definitely get wet. I sigh in defeat at my options. Getting wet was definitely better than getting completely drenched. I nod my head and try to stick closely behind Nejire who began walking as soon as I started getting comfortable. "To infinity and beyond!" I couldn't help but smile at how silly Hadou can be at times. "Its raining its pouring AN OLD MAN IS SNORING!!!" And sometimes they can be quite embarrassing, especially when Togata and Hadou partner up like this.

I look at Amajiki, he is trying to hide between his shoulders, I don't want be mean but if that actually worked I would also be doing it. All I could do now was shrink behind Hadou as we walked pass other people. Their gawking was quite strong and I couldn't help but squeeze between Togata and Hadou, trying my utmost best to hide from all the onlookers. It didn't last long though, I was tugged to the very front of the group and Togata threw an arm around my shoulders as he began singing some more childish songs.

"I AM NOT...AFRAID OF RAIN...BECAUSE I HAVE...A BIG UMBRELLA!" I couldn't help but do what Amajiki was doing. I tried to hide between my shoulders and behind my hands, I seriously did NOT know Togata would be this embarrassing. I wanted to snap the umbrella shut on both him and Hadou while running off with Amajiki to spare him from them. Sadly, all I could do was hide and fail miserably at it. I could here people giggling and whispering to each other as we pass by them, which resulted with Togata and Hadou to simply grin while waving at each person.

Rain, just wash me away with you.

I bit my lower lip as they began singing yet another song before finally stopping as they stood in front of a certain building. "Th-this is me." Oh no. Now I'm gonna be left all alone with these nutheads. I gave Amajiki a frightened look and he returned an apologetic one. He obviously didn't want to be seen with them any more than I did. Togata began dragging me away once again as Hadou held the umbrella, even though it was getting quite difficult for her because she was now on the side instead of the middle.

"Alright! Who are we dropping off next?!" Hadou looked at both Togata and me expectantly. "How far do you live, (L/N)-san?" Togata was now looking at me as well. I looked between him and Hadou before taking out my device once more. "About 7 blocks the other way." Hadou smiled as she faced foward again. "Alrighty! I guess I'm next." They dragged me along with them as they began walking, just one block. Hadou handed her umbrella to Togata and smiled at me. "Give it back to me tomorrow." With that said, she waved goodbye at me first then at Togata. He turned to give me a grin as he walked once more and I followed him, incredibly thankful that I was being spared from embarrassment.

"Its really cold today, how about a hot drink before I drop you off?" I gave him a scrutinizing gaze before finally nodding my head in agreement. I opened my mouth to say something and when nothing came out, I suddenly remembered that I was a mute. For a whole minute, I completely forgot I couldn't speak and that was very shocking to me. Not once has it ever left my mind that I drastically lost my voice and how it has become quite an anchor in my life. I ceased all movement as I processed this, causing Togata to stop as well to look at me, a worried expression on his usually bright and smiling face. "Is something the matter?" I didn't move as I stared at the ground as I tried my hardest to not let those awful memories come into mind. I don't want to remember his face. Not now. I've been doing so well lately and I don't want it to start now. I can't go back to hours of psychiatry and taking those stupid medications again.

I can feel myself begin to hyperventilate and Togata was beginning to panic as he was utterly confused at my sudden change in behavior. "Oh my-! What's wrong?!" I could feel his arm wrap around my waist as he held me up, my legs were beginning to feel weak as I hung onto Togata's neck. My vision was slowly starting to become tunnel-like as I felt my consciousness slip away, that was until I felt Togata carry me in his arms. "I seriously don't know what's going on, but I'm going back to school and have Recovery Girl get a good look at you." His voice was somewhat calming and I nodded my head before slumping against him.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

Why of all times did I have to go and remember my most traumatic moment in my life? Those useless pleas kept repeating inside my head as my vision went completely black.

I hope I didn't take too long on this chapter and that it came out well.

Not sure if that's a cliffhanger or not, but if it is, I'm so sorry!

Until next chapter!
