Where You Belong (Eijirou Kirishima x OC)

Believe in Me

"What the hell was that, last night?" Aizawa scoffed, shoving me into an empty room.

"What do you mean?" I asked, already having a good idea on what he was talking about.

"You know what I mean. I heard you through the microphone on your ear. You were giving Shigaraki information about the students. Midoriya, Bakugou, Kirishima, and more. That's not part of the deal here." Aizawa stated firmly, already starting to get angry with me.

I sighed, leaning against the wall.

"I know what you're thinking. But, think about what I actually told Shigaraki, regarding the students. Did I give away any actual weaknesses, or anything that's secret information? No. I pretty much just re-worded what was said about them at the sports festival, and added my own twist on it, to make them sound weak and incompetent." I explained, noticing Aizawa was quiet.

I decided to continue. "Shigaraki is attracted to powerful things. I'm hoping that by downplaying the abilities of the UA students, he'll lose interest and move on." I said, boredly averting my gaze to the side.

Aizawa was quiet for a moment, taking in my words.

His anger dissipated slightly, as he groaned in frustration.

"I'm not comfortable with you talking about my students to the league of villains." Aizawa remarked.

I whipped my head around to look at him now.

"And you think I am? Do you know how hard it is to make someone like Katsuki Bakugou sound boring?" I chuckled dryly, before continuing.

"Look, you don't know Shigaraki like I do. You've seen the way he treats people, who don't give him what he wants. You saw it happen with me, first hand. I have a scar on my shoulder now, from where he decayed me. If I don't tell him something, he'll kill me. Then, you won't have anyone undercover to do this job." I replied, faintly hearing the students outside cheer for Eijirou and Sato.

Aizawa rubbed his temples in annoyance now, becoming thoroughly irritated with me.

"How do I know you're telling the truth?" He asked.

Ouch. That hurt a little.

But, I understand. I'm still gaining their trust.

I was quiet, thinking about how to respond.

"Well.....I put my trust in the heroes. I wear that earpiece and camera you give me, everyday at the league of villains. I'm at risk here just as much as you are, if not more. I switched sides, Aizawa. I've made up my mind on where I want to be. I want to be here, with the heroes. I want to help. But, I understand if it will take you some time to trust me." I muttered softly.

"If I'm being honest with you, it will take me some time to fully trust you. I can never be too careful, Margo. Especially, when it comes to my students." Aizawa explained firmly, crossing his arms.

A perfect reason why he can't know Eijirou and I are dating. He wouldn't allow it.

"I get it." I simply replied, wanting to be done with this conversation.

"But, I appreciate you doing this. It's definitely a step in the right direction of full trust." He tried reassuring, looking at his watch now.

"Alright. Kirishima and Sato should be about done. I've got to get ready for Todoroki and Momo." Aizawa muttered, nodding me over to the door.

I wonder how Eijirou did on his final?

.......

I walked into the infirmary now, smiling at recovery girl.
