The Empathetic Eraserhead

Chapter 6

In the morning, Yuki woke up a bit confused. She woke up in a strange bedroom, as she fell asleep in Nemuri's guest bedroom. As she got up, she grounded as she got up slowly, with one killer headache.

"No more drinking," she grumbled as she went to Nemuri's small kitchen to find some water.

"Good morning Yuki!" Nemuri said as she watched her almost trip over her feet, feeling her bad hangover. "How are you feeling today sweetheart," the elder woman asked her as she handed her a glass of water, she had put in some dried vitamin packets she had on hand, just the occasion.

"Hungover, and it feels like someone ran over my head," she said as she grabbed the water, almost chugging the whole thing.

"Good thing today's Sunday, and you can go recover at home," she suggested. "While I find out what I can with Shouta for ya," she said giggling.

"What do you mean," Yuki asked the woman confused.

"Oh right, you were drunk, but I got you to confess your feelings for him," she said giggling, "I was going to see what I can find out," she explained.

"I did what," she asked as she started to blush.

"Don't worry hun, you only told me about it, but I have a good feeling he feels the same," she said as she giggled at the last bit. "Even if I can't, you can with your quirk," she suggested.

"I'm too scared to, we just met," she blabbered on, Nemuri wasn't listening to her.

"Oh baby girl," she started to say, "He likes you, I'm not sure how much, but I can guarantee it," she finished as she looked at the shy woman in front of her.

"I'm not sure, the guys that asked me out seemed like they were as well, but they ditched me," Yuki said as she pouted.

"Shame on them then, they lost a bright light," she said as she hugged her, reassuring her a bit.

"Shame yes, but it still hurt like hell."

"Just go home, and rest up, you have a bright and early morning, and with the amount of alcohol you had last night, you'll need it," Nemuri said laughing lightly.

"Yes ma'am," she said as she started to head out. "Did I give you my number," she asked before she left.

"No, let me see your phone so I can add it, I can also add Shouta's and Yamada's as well if you want," she offered her.

"Umm, sure, that'll be helpful, thank you" she said as she handed her her phone. As she entered the numbers, Yuki looked around Nemuri's dorm, it looked like hers, but with a bigger fridge and more pictures up, mostly of her friends and colleagues at her agency.

"Here ya go," Nemuri said, scaring the younger one slightly. "Sorry do you wanna take a better look at them," she asked as she went closer to the picture frames. Yuki started looking around at all her photos, mostly of her and the two males at the same bar, and a few at UA with the rest of the staff, Nezu tucked away in Shouta's scarf.

"Why is Nezu in Shouta's scarf," she asked Nemuri.

"No one knows for sure, but my guess is that it's warm," she said shrugging and laughing.

"He is a weird one, that's for sure," she nodded in agreement.

"That he is. I guess Sho doesn't mind, he's always there when he can so," she stated as she showed Yuki some more pictures on her phone, of the two men. "Wanna get lunch, it'll help with the hangover," Nemuri suggested.

"Sure, that sounds lovely,"

"Want the boys to come?"

"Sure, unless Yamada gets too loud, then lunch is on him," Yuki said giggling.

"Sounds good to me," she agreed giggling as well. "Let me call both of them," she said, getting her phone out of her back pocket. "Hey Yamada, is Sho with you?" She asked the loud blonde, knowing he is.

"Hey Nemuri, yeah he is, what's up," Yuki heard his loud voice, and a soft grumbling.

"Yuki and I were planning on going to lunch, wanna join us," Nemuri asked him.

"What do you think Shouta, wanna go to lunch with the girls," Yamada asked the grumpy man. A few seconds passed and you heard Nemuri hang up, telling them to give them a few minutes to get ready.

"The boys are in, let's get ready," she said with an evil grin appearing on her beautiful face.

"What are you thinking about 'Muri," Yuki said, backing up slowly.

"You're close to my shirt size right," she said as she went to her closet.

"Close enough, why," Yuki said following her.

"Oh, it's nothing too bad, I had gotten a shirt a while ago, I'm not sure why I got it, it's too innocent for my taste," she reassured Yuki as she handed her a hanger. The hanger had a beautiful maroon top with short sleeves, and a small cut out on the back, kind of in the shape of a cat outline, if you squint hard enough.

"Oh this is super adorable! Where did you find it?" Yuki asked her as she changed into it admiring the quality of the top.

"One of those fancy boutiques, I don't remember the name. I think I was with Yamada, but I think you'll wear it more than I would," she explained as she took back the hanger Yuki was giving back. "You can keep it, it's stunning on you."

"Thank you 'Muri," she said hugging the R rated hero.

"You're welcome sweetie," she said smiling.

"I'm going to get changed, meet you in a few?"

"Sure, I need to as well," she said as she decided on what to wear. As she left Nemuris and went to change her pants. She decided on a pair of dark washed skinny jeans, with a few holes in the legs, another one of her favorites. After she got ready, she met Yamada and Shouta in the common area. Nemuri took a while longer, but when she did appear, she figured out why. Nemuri was on the phone with one of her agency's sidekicks, talking about some Nomu's around the area, asking if they needed any help at the school.

"Not at the moment, but I'll give you a call right away," she said to the man on the line. "So it looks like there's some rouge Nomu running around," she said sighing heavily.
