I found my way to Aizawa's room. It took some convincing, but Midnight finally got the guys to go home. They stayed for hours. I think they were afraid to leave me alone after I told them everything. I had contemplated telling them at some point and I wasn't sure I would after Bakugo's arrogance, but seeing them all there for me meant so much, I knew I could trust them. I also thought actually talking about it to those who wouldn't dismiss me would be better for my own growth.

I slowly opened Aizawa's room and peeked inside. He was sitting up in his bed, his face, torso and arms bandaged.

"You didn't listen to me." He says as I walk in. He didn't even look to see who it was.

I sigh as I sit on the end of his bed. "I couldn't stand by and watch. I had to do something."

"And in the process, you almost got yourself killed." His voice is cold and stern.

"I'm sorry, but what would you have done?" I ask getting a bit frustrated. "I can help and if I sit back and do nothing, what kind of person does that make me?"

He sighs and lifts his head. I don't know if he can even see me.

"You realize with your injuries you won't be able to participate in the Sports Festival?" He's right. My injuries are worse than before and I'm sure my body will be less forgiving for damaging it twice within a twenty-four hour period.

I nod. "It's okay. There's always next year." I shrug.

"With the coverage on the news, I've heard a few agencies are already interested in you."

I perk my head up in confusion. "News coverage?"

He nods. "Midnight told me that the news mentioned you and your bravery. Other faculty members commended you for your actions to them. They're calling you a hero."

I smile and my eyes start to water.

"But don't think I'm not still mad at you." He interrupts the sentiment.

I nod. "I know." I stand up. "I'll let you rest." He scoots forward to lay down, facing the ceiling.

"Thank you. Without you I don't know if I'd still be here." He finally says. I smile.

"You're welcome."

Very short, I know. But I think this chapter is sweet, plus it balances out that really long one earlier.
