When we got back to the apartment, we all took off our shoes and went our own way. I stood by the door as I looked around. To my left was the doorway to the kitchen. In front of me, the hallway split in half; to the right was the stairs and to the left was a hallway. Down the hallway was the living room, which was to the left, behind the stairs was the first level bathroom, and in the way back was the door to the back yard. I walked into the kitchen as I carried my stuff and walked around the table, which was closest to the doorway, and went to check the fridge if Chi ate the lunch I made; he did. I then walked out, past the stairs, and down the hallway to check if the living-room needed cleaning. The sofa had it's back to the doorway as it was facing the TV that was in front of the window. In front of the sofa was a coffee table that had some papers strewn about on it. I picked them up and as I did, I noticed that they were some of Chi's papers.

I carried them with me to mine and Chi's bedroom. Just as I was going to walk up the stairs, Rikka leaned over the railing as she asked me, "Would it be alright if Otokari and Tamori come over Friday? Could they spend the night too?"

I sighed as I thought about it, "Let me talk it over with your father first."

"Okay." she said before she went back to her room.

I knocked on our room door before I entered. Chi said that I don't have to do that, but since he has the door shut, I figure I should anyways since it's closed for a reason. I slowly opened the door as I walked in. He paused his work and turned towards the door as he said, "Oh hey, babe. How was today?"

I dropped my backpack and purse by the door like I would when I was still in school, then tossed my phone on the messy bed as I said, "It was pretty good. I got some things done already, like getting Deku to present awards at the festival." I then walked to the closet while he stood up as I removed my mask and said, "I'm gonna head to the cafe quickly." Once I found a pair of dark blue skinny jeans to wear, I took off the top of my hero costume before I removed my pants to change into my jeans. After I slipped them on, I yanked a black long sleeved shirt off of its hanger and put it on. Before I could pull it down all the way, I felt hands on the sides of my waist, gently grazing across the old self harm scars that littered my skin.

"Do they still hurt?" Chi asked softly before he placed a kiss on the side of my neck.

"Not really...though they still are a little sensitive." I replied as I turned around to face him and pulled my shirt down.

He then pulled up my left arm and gently pushed back my sleeve, revealing how horribly scarred it is. My face started to turn red even though I know he's seen all of my scars plenty of times. He kissed the palm of my hand and started to work his way down my arm till he reached where my sleeve was pushed back before he pulled me close and gave me a kiss on the lips. "I don't think I tell you enough how beautiful you are." he said with a purr to his voice. My face started to turn an even deeper red. He then laughed when he saw my reaction. "You're so cute! We've been together for how long and you still get flustered."

I looked away as I mumbled, "Sh-shut up you idiot."

He chuckled as he held me in a hug, "Love you too."

I tried to push him away while I said as I started to get my natural color back, "I better be going." he then let me go reluctantly. As I picked my phone up off of the bed, I said, "Oh, Rikka was wondering if Otokari and Tamori could spend the night on Friday. I guess it's fine with me if it's fine with you."

He thought about it for a couple seconds before he settled with, "Fine, just be sure to tell her that she has to concentrate on her studies and training even more once they leave."

"Okay. Well then, see you in a couple hours." I said as I picked up my purse before leaving our bedroom.

I quickly stopped across the hall and said to Rikka, "It's fine if they come over and spend the night. The only deal is that you study really hard and train a lot once they leave."
