"So.. you have to tell me how you feel about this."
"... feel about what?"
"Aizawa being your soulmate. We are all shocked. But we haven't heard anything from you guys."
I chuckle at that. "Well, he's been in the hospital for the majority of the time. I've been back and forth with him and the students. I tried to talk about it but he shuts me down." I look out the window, my fingers nervously picking at each other. I guess it's still kind of a shock to him. It took him a couple of months for him to even knowledge me respectfully. Now that he finally accepted me back into his life, we get seriously injured by villains, our students lives at stake and so happen to find out we are soulmates.
"How have you been? It's just weird knowing how you haven't been in the hospital as much as he has.. even though you guys have connected touch." She's not wrong about that.
I had to convince the doctors that I was in perfect shape to get back to those students. I felt bad not being there. I felt as if I wasn't doing my job..
I didn't even do much during the USJ attack..
I was useless. I wasn't good enough.When I came back to school, I continued to train them the best I could. Even though I was in constant pain all the time. I had to take breaks here and there. When I would finally get home after visiting Aizawa for a few hours, I would just cry.
I remember crying in the bath every night as weeks went by. I've never felt alone like I did.
I tried to tell Aizawa how I felt but I felt as if I didn't deserve comfort. He needed comfort more than I did."It's been hard.. but you know how things get." I chuckle glancing over at her with a smile. She just nods before looking back at the road.
"Misa?"
"Yeah?"
"We tried our best that day. It was unexpected. The students did an amazing job with their skills. Us heroes made it just in time. You shouldn't blame yourself. Everyone turned out alright-
"No. All Might had to use the rest of his energy because of me and because of me," my lips began to tremble. "Aizawa was hurt.. He risked his life for all of us. I just got the backlash from him. His injuries just so happened to be mine!" Tears fell.. my hands gripping my knees.
"Why do you always have to put yourself down like this, Misa? You are a pro hero for a reason right? You're not a fucking villain! So what your quirk is really extreme, it just makes you stronger." She spits out, her hands gripping the wheel. "Sure, you could have done more. We all could have done more. It's not just you. You are not alone." Midnight and I finally reach the school. She parks in-front of the gate as she slowly turns to me.
I sigh to myself before turning to face her as well. She chuckles her thumb grazing to wipe a tear away from my face. "You are extraordinary, Misa Hamasaki. You have always been." I couldn't help but smile softly at her generous words. "We all know that you are a strong hero. That's why we really wanted you here. To teach theses students to be the best pro heroes that they can be." I nod quickly taking her hand in mine. "I know.. I'm sorry."
She laughs pushing me playfully. "No need to be sorry! I feel insecure as well sometimes. But I'm here for a reason, I have a purpose."
Silence as we just play with our fingers.
"Plus... you finally found your soulmate. He's waiting for you in there." I roll my eyes shoving her this time before getting out of the car. I fake a smile waving off to her. "You might want to fix your neck in the teacher's lounge! I see some of it!" My heart drops, my hand going straight to my neck. Before I could say anything, she speeds off...
