Through the Darkness <Aizawa Shota>

<1>

Miyuki sighed sadly and knocked on the door to Aizawa's house. Her fiance broke off their engagement a few hours before, claiming that she gave nothing to their relationship. In reality, he just didn't feel like hiding his mistress from her any longer. She and Aizawa had been friends for a long time, they went to UA together, but his last year happened to be her first. It was late and she assumed that he would be asleep, but Miyuki needed to talk to someone.

The door swung open, revealing a tired looking Aizawa. Upon noticing that it was Miyuki, he swung the door open wider so that she could step inside. He shut the door with a large yawn and shuffled into the kitchen to grab Miyuki a cup of tea. Miyuki sat down on the couch with a small sigh and waited for Aizawa to return to the living room. He walked in and sat on the couch next to her and handed her the cup of tea. Miyuki took the tea graciously and took a small sip.

After a few minutes of complete silence, Aizawa glanced over at her. "What's the matter this time kid?"

"H-Haru.. he um... he's been cheating on me with a girl that works at his hero firm. He broke off our engagement." Tears clouded Miyuki's vision as she took another drink of her tea to stop from completely loosing it.

Aizawa didn't look shocked, in fact he looked quite like he knew that would be the outcome. Nevertheless, he patted her shoulder with his hand with a gentle squeeze. "I'm sorry. I wish I could do something for you."

Miyuki sniffled and looked up at him, eyes glossy from the tears. "I just don't want to be alone right now, can I... stay here?"

Of course Aizawa couldn't turn down his friend in need. "Uh, yeah, no trouble. I'll take the couch."

Miyuki frowned, seeming to have calmed down significantly. "Shota, You aren't sleeping on the couch, we can share your bed."

Aizawa hesitantly nodded, not used to someone sharing his space. They both stood and made their way back to his bedroom. It was dark, but Miyuki could somewhat make out Aizawa's black cat; Raven, on the foot of the bed.

Miyuki cooed softly and pet small strokes down her body. "Hey Raven girl, long time no see."

Aizawa pulled his shirt over his head tiredly and fell onto the bed, causing Raven to get startled. Her back hunched as she hissed and ran to hide under the bed.

"I'm surprised she let you pet her like that." He mumbled, face smushed into a pillow.

Miyuki huffed and began to rummage through Aizawa's dresser drawers. "She likes me you know. Who else is she even around? Hizashi?"

Aizawa sighed and replied sleepily. "You stopped coming around when you got with that dickhead."

Miyuki sighed heavily and pulled an oversized shirt out of the dresser. With his back turned to her, she took this opportunity to pulled her shirt over her head and unclasp her bra. The material of the shirt was soft as it brushed her skin. The leggings she was in would have to do as she felt a wave of exhaustion wash over her. She fell onto the bed next to Aizawa and pulled the blankets up to her next.

She closed her eyes with a sigh, but sleep wouldn't come no matter how relaxed she got.

"Shota?" She whispered as she flopped onto her back.

No response. Of course he was knocked out, he barely got sleep as it is. Miyuki felt bad for wanting to wake him, but she needed a way to finally fall asleep. Miyuki rolled over close to him and shook his shoulder a bit. "Shota..."

He groaned and lifted his head from the pillow a bit. "What is it Miyuki?"

"I can't sleep." She whispered, plucking at a stray piece of string on the comforter.
