Lizard Queen *EDITING*

Is this a date? *Edited*

The week went by fast and the next thing you knew it was Thursday and today was going to be your little date with Mizushima- Manual told you his real name so score- and you were excited! You can't remember the last time you actually went out besides with Ruska so, this was something to look forward to! You were able to walk without your crutch so you did your chores and got ready to leave at around 2. You left your home texting Mizushima that you were on your way and you'll see him at three.

"You're in a good mood." You yelped turning to look at who scared you and it was Aizawa. That bastard.

"Give me a heart attack, why don't you." You frowned at him before turning back to your phone. "Manual invited me out to eat with him so that's where I am going now." You turned to look at Aizawa who hummed and was staring at the elevator doors.

"Never knew the two of you were that close." You raised an eyebrow at him

"Not close just two friends hanging out you know? Do you want to hang out with me too one day? Is that why you ask?" You got in his face smirking. You giggled when he put his whole hand on your face to push you back.

"Only someone with no brain cells will do that." You smirked again at him using your tail to tilt his face towards you.

"That means you have none. I'll make a day for us so you don't get jealous, okay?" You removed your tail and closed your eyes laughing. You completely missed the look he gave you and the light blush on his face. You continued talking to him as you left the building until you got to the bus stop. "I'll talk to you later Zawa-kun! I'll let you know how everything goes." You waved to him as he walked down the block and it didn't take long for the bus to come. The ride to the little diner wasn't too long. It was about 40 minutes away so you listened to music and played games on your phone to kill time. You got off the bus some time later and stood in front of the diner sending a picture to Mizushima. You waited for a reply but, you got a tap on your shoulder instead. You turned to see Mizushima smiling at you.

"Glad to see you came." That was strange. Why wouldn't you come?

"Of course, I will. Now let's go." You both walked side by side the waiter waving to him and ushering the two of you to some seats. You looked around noticing a plethora of plants and flowers. This further confirmed your suspicions that he was a plant guy. He probably had a whole garden back at home. The waiter sat the two of you down with your menus and left to get you some drinks.

"I know it may not be much, but it's quiet and nice." You glanced over at him noticing he was fidgeting. He was really nervous for some reason.

"There's no need to be nervous, I love it and this further confirms you're a plant guy. Bet you know the best flowers to give a girl." You winked at him trying to ease away his nerves. He flushed red and started laughing going off about different plants, flowers, and whatever else. Honestly, if you didn't know he was a pro-hero you would have thought he was a botanist.

"The technical terms for flowering plants are angiosperms and gymnosperms. There are also vascular and non-vascular plants- oh, I'm sorry. I must sound boring. Go ahead and talk about something you like." You raised an eyebrow at him. He wasn't boring.

"There's nothing boring about anything you just said. Honestly, if I didn't know you were a hero I would have thought you were a botanist." He seemed to deflate a bit at that but, he smiled regardless.

"I'm surprised you even know who I am. There's nothing extraordinary about me. I have a water manipulation quirk. There's nothing flashy or amazing about that. I'm just plain old, normal me." You let his words wash over you trying to make sense of what he's thinking. He was insecure and felt he didn't measure up to a hero.
