Convenience

Chapter 1

Mineta rubbed his eyes as he looked himself in the mirror. He had barely noticeable dark circles underneath his eyes from previous nights when he'd stay up all night watching anime. He yawned. It was 4:25am. Way earlier than what he was accustomed to. He sighed. He had gotten dressed in a rush out of habit so now he had nothing to do.

He grabbed some lotion his mom had bought him before he moved to his own apartment. It was unopened. The scent was warm vanilla sugar. He was unsure why his mom got him a feminine lotion. He hadn't worn it for that specific reason. "Fuck it." He squeezed a pea sized amount onto his hands and rubbed it all over his arms. It was the perfect amount.

Mineta lifted his arm up to his nose and sniffed. His face flushed slightly and he smiled. "Whoa! That actually smells really sweet. I should ask mom to get me some more." Mineta walked happily over to the kitchen and opened the fridge only to see a single peach. "Shit. I spent so much time at Kaminari's that I forgot I have no food. I guess it won't hurt to head over to the convenience store. They have basic food needs there. Ugh! It's too early for grocery shopping." Mineta whined.

Mineta closed the fridge door and started heading out. He wanted to get to school early. Earlier than Midoriya and Iida. He quickly slipped on his shoes and headed out.

Mineta wrapped his arms around himself and shivered. He didn't realize it was going to be chilly this early in the morning. He knew it was going to warm up later on which was why he didn't bother to bring a jacket. He was starting to regret his decision. He stomped down the sidewalk. The streets were oddly quiet and empty. He always assumed old people were up by this time heading off to work. He was wrong.

He walked up to the door of the lone convenience store. It was pretty far for being the only convenience. Ten minutes away. The automatic door dinged as it opened. Mineta looked around. There was one man at the counter. He looked around fifty years old, he was a bit overweight, he had long black hair and a poorly shaved mustache. He looked like he hadn't showered in weeks. Overall a very creepy looking dude. "Welcome." The dude said in a monotone voice not even looking over. Mineta just looked away and headed over to the precooked food isle.

———————————————————————————

Mineta had grabbed ten precooked meals, a few fruits and a case of sodas. He was too lazy to cook his own even though he knew how to cook thank to his mom. He placed the food items onto the counter. The man looked at Mineta with a creepy smile. "Is that all for you?" The man asked. Mineta just nodded not bothering to speak. Mineta watched silently as the man scanned everything. After about a minute the man spoke up. "Your total is 2,091 yen." Mineta handed the man a few extra dollars without realizing and grabbed his now bagged groceries. "Ah, wait. You gave me extra." The man had a creepy grin as he watched Mineta stick his hand out. The man placed the money in Minetas hand and held onto Mineta's hand for a split second. Mineta cringed at the feeling. His hands were sweaty. There was no need for the man to even touch his hand.

Mineta pulled his back forcefully and spat out a thank you. Mineta quickly walked out of the convenience store and took out his phone. As he walked down the quiet streets he couldn't help, but feel a little nervous. Was this what girls felt like when they went somewhere on their own. Mineta opened twitter and started typing.

"I went to the convenience store for a couple of things that I need and when the man was handing me back the extra money that I accidentally gave him he held my hand. HE HELD MY FRIKIN HAND. That was so gro"

Mineta paused his typing when he heard a noise behind him. In a panic he pressed post and turned around. Mineta saw that man again. "AGH! What the hell!? Why aren't you back at the store?" Mineta asked. The man grinned. "My shift is over and I missed you." Mineta felt his face pale. "Wh-what?" "I missed you, Minoru Kun." Mineta felt his heart sink and start to race. "How do you know my name?" The man chuckled. "Oh! I know everything about you. From your height, to your weight, to your age." Mineta backed away and started to run.

He ran as fast as his small legs could carry him, but he wasn't fast enough. The man grabbed him from behind causing Mineta to drop his bag of food and his phone. "You're going to regret that." Mineta struggled as the man dragged him into the woods. Where Mineta lived there was a long stretch of just wooded area. "St-stop! Let me go! Please!!"

The man threw Mineta into a tree dazing him. Mineta stared blearily at the man as he took something out of his pocket and tied Mineta's arms above him. Mineta once again started to struggle when he realized what the man had done. "LET ME GO!" Mineta screamed. "If you keep yelling I'm killing you and your friends." Mineta closed his mouth and his eyes.

The man pushed his hand underneath Mineta's shirt feeling around occasionally brushing over or playing with his nipple. Mineta flinched slightly. The man unbuttoned Mineta's shirt and started to pull off Mineta's pants. "Please no." He whimpered. "It'll be okay, baby."

———————————————————————————

Mineta watched quietly as the man walked away. He was sobbing, bruised, bleeding and in so much pain. He was still naked. Mineta wasn't sure how much time had passed since the man had left, but the sun was starting to come up. Mineta pulled himself up and put his clothes back on. He gasped in pain. He could hardly move without feeling an intense amount of pain. He walked over to the road where his stuff had been dropped. They were perfectly fine except for the small crack that made its way through the top of his phone. He started to limp back home. He needed to put his groceries back. His breathing is heavy and tears are still streaming down his face.
——————————————————————————-

Mineta closed the door to his house and collapsed onto the floor. He couldn't help it anymore. He broke down. Sobbing, crying, screaming, even scratching himself. He was thankful for his sound proof walls.

Was this how the girls felt when he? "Oh god." Mineta started to gag. He quickly pulled himself up. His legs so shaky he could barely hold himself up. He stumbled to the sink and started puking.
———————————————————————————

Mineta wasn't sure what time it was. He had changed clothes. He couldn't bring himself to shower. He was already almost at UA. Taking extra long to get there because it hurt to move. Mineta heard the bell ring. It was 8:30am. He wasn't as late as he thought he was. He walked slowly and headed into his classroom. All eyes were on him. They all looked shocked? Mineta just looked down. He hadn't seen himself and he didn't wanna see himself. Aizawa walked up to him and put his hand on Mineta's shoulder. He flinched. Like really flinched. He jumped back.

Mineta looked scared and Aizawa quickly moved his hand away. Aizawa cleared his throat. "Why were you late?" "I went to get groceries." It wasn't really a lie. "And why do you look like that?" Mineta moved his eyes to look at Aizawa. "Like what?" He squeaked. "Does anyone have a mirror?" Aizawa asked.

Mina got up and handed Aizawa a small pocket mirror. Aizawa handed it to Mineta and Mineta grabbed it avoiding Aizawa's hand. Mineta opened it and looked.

His face was pale, his lips were bruised and there was dried blood coming from a cut from when Mineta had bit down on his lip, there were hickeys on his neck, his eyes were red and puffy and he looked pale.

He dropped the mirror in shock and covered his mouth. It took everything in him not to vomit. "I- I have to go." He felt himself tearing up. He quickly backed away and ran. He wasn't going back home and he definitely wasn't leaving the building. He was afraid of seeing that man again.

God he was in so much pain. It felt like his insides were torn apart. Hell, maybe they were. He was small. Barely the size of a kindergartener that man was huge. Over 5'10 for sure. As Mineta ran his legs finally gave out. He fell face first into the floor. He couldn't move. He could feel the tears streaming down his face. "F-fuck."

Mineta looked around noticing the hallways were empty. No one in sight. He wiped his tears away with his arm. He got up and stumbled over to the restroom.
