A Familiar Face

Y/N'S POV

I slowly got up from the office floor. There would probably be someone sweeping the floors because of the fire alarm. If someone even looked at me I would burst into tears and I couldn't explain to them why.

I made my way down the stairway as the elevators were shut off. The accounting office was on the 11th floor. With office hours being over most of the other employees had already left for the day so there was only a few people making their way down the stairs. I finally got to the lobby and went out the front door.

I was looking down at my feet as I climbed down the steps of the company. I suddenly felt someone tightly embrace me. "Thank god, y'n! I was worried!" It was Yamamoto. "You should have left the office 45 minutes ago!" He must have forgot about my "Meeting" with Mr. Okino.

I looked up at his face. 'Oh no, I can feel the tears filling my eyes. This is bad.' I ripped myself away from him and started to run down the stairs. I couldn't face him right now. "I'll see you tomorrow, Yamamoto!" I yelled back to him.

"Wait, y/n! Come back!" He started to chase after me. He reached his hand out and pulled my to him. He had a telekinetic quirk and would often use it to pull me into him. His arms wrapped around me. "Please don't run away from me." He gripped me tighter "Why are you running from me?"

I needed to calm down. He can't know what happened. I took a deep breath. "Im sorry, Yamamoto, I really am. I just had a stressful day and I really need to go home." I tried to wiggle out of his embrace "So can you please let me go?"

He was silent and gripped me even tighter. He was obviously thinking about what to say. "Let me walk you home." he was whispering into my ear.

I was finally able to break from his grasp "It's ok. I'll be fine, trust me." I turned an started to walk away.

He grabbed my hand "Please, y/n. Let me walk you home. You and I both know that a pretty quirkless girl can't walk home by herself."

I ripped my hand from his. "I am not helpless! Just because I don't have a quirk doesn't mean that I can't take care of myself! I am a 25 year old lady who can take care of herself!" I turned back around and started to walk home. I didn't look back. I couldn't look back.

I decided to not take the train today. I didn't want the other passengers to judge me with my red face and puffy eyes. I would be walking for a while. My apartment would be about an hour and half walk from work. I didn't really care. I was just hoping that I get home before the sun goes down.

I completely zoned out as I was walking home. My apartment was near the harbor. I didn't even realize that I had completely walked past my apartment. I looked around and was right next to the harbor. "Shit. How did I zone out this bad." I sighed deeply and turned back. The sun had set and it was almost 8:00. I turned and started to walk back to my apartment. I noticed a figure walking out from the gates of the shipping yard. He was looking at his phone with a very confused face and started to look around frantically till he looked at me. He looked shocked as he saw me and started to quickly walk toward me.

I tensed up. Who was this guy? Why was he coming toward me? I gripped the strap of my purse tightly. I didn't have anything I could use as a weapon.

"Hey, y/n!" He yelled to me as he got closer. Once he got closer I realized he looked like the janitor from the office but he wasn't wearing a mask or a hat. He finally caught up to me and grabbed me by my shoulders "What are you doing here?"

Now that he was in front of me I finally recognized him, it was Deku. What was he doing here and how does he know my name? "Deku is that you?"

He looked shocked and brought a hand to his face. "shit if forgot my mask." He mumbled to himself "Ah yeah it's me, Deku." He gave me an awkward smile.

It was really Deku! No one has seen him in months. "What are you doing here? How do you know me? Where have you been?" I rambled my questions so quickly I wasn't sure he would understand me.

"Woah woah woah, slow down." he waved his hand in front of him "Haha well uh where to start? Uh I'm here for work, uh I met you the other day actually and uh I've been around.."

The other day? It was Deku that helped me on the train and he's the new janitor at work? "Why are you working as a janitor at my office?"

"Oh well.." he leaned in close to me and cupped a hand around his mouth "Im on some secret work, try to keep it quiet okay."

Secret work? What kind of secret work would require him to be a janitor? "Oh okay."

He put his hands on my shoulders again "But more importantly what are you doing here? Do you live around here?"

He sounded a bit concerned. "Oh yeah I live near here. I was a bit zoned out and completely walked past my apartment." I was rushing with my words again. I have to admit I was a bit star struck.

"Oh well let me walk you home. Theres been quite a bit of villainous activity around here lately." His voice was very calming and I could tell he really cared.

"Uh yeah sure, thats okay. Unless you need to get back to.." I leaned in close to him and whispered "Your secret work."

He started laughing "No, no I'm done with what I need to do so it's no problem for me to walk you home."

"Oh well then that's great!" I grabbed his hand in excitement. We both blushed and I let go "Haha sorry. I got excited. I can be a bit handsy when I'm excited."

He put his hand on my cheek "It's okay, actually I think it's really cute, and Im really glad to see you're happy."

I could feel my cheeks get really hot. I was probably red as a tomato. He was being so sweet. It was making me forget about the events of the evening. "Oh well, thank you."

He grabbed my hand and we started walking "So which way to your apartment?"

"Well we are already going the right way. We'll go up about 5 blocks and turn left and go another 7 and we're there." I pointed in the direction we were going. We walked in silence for a few minutes, still holding hands.

He broke the silence "So uh how long have you worked at that trading company?"

I had to think for a moment. "Uh I think 3 years. Something like that." I paused "I honestly hate it there." I felt a wave of sadness fall over me.

I think he could tell. His grip tightened "What's so bad about it?"

I could feel tears building up in my eyes, the sadness was now drowning me. "I-I uh....my boss... he's h-horrible..." The tears were spilling over now. "He did some unspeakable things to me tonight and....and theres nothing I can to about it.... I can't lose this job because he has blackmail against me and I will never get another job if that gets out and, and.... a-and.." I started to cry harder and was hyperventilating between my words. Why was I opening up to him? Maybe because he was a hero.

He pulled me close and hugged me tightly. "y/n, thats awful. I... it makes me so angry. You should never have to worry about that and it's awful that you have to live that. You are so wonderful and sweet and creative and you don't deserve that." He laid his head onto my shoulder "And I will never let that happen to you again. You call me, text me, contact me in any form and I will come. I will take out anyone who even gets the idea to hurt you." His voice was cracking as if he were holding back tears. "You deserve to be happy."

I hugged him back tightly. I truly needed to hear these words even if some of them were slightly threatening, but I didn't care. I cried into his chest for a little bit till I calmed down.

"Thank you. I needed that." I wiped the tears from my eyes. "I just needed to cry it out. Im fine now, truly I am."

He caressed my cheek and pressed his forehead against mine. "I promise nothing bad will ever happen to you ever again." He lightly kissed my forehead "Common let's get going, it's getting late." He broke our embrace and continued walking toward my apartment.

I was a little unsettled by what he said but I decided to brush it off, he is a hero and he naturally wouldn't want bad things to happen to people.

We walked for about 20 minutes till we made it to my apartment. "Well this is me. Thank you again for walking me home."

"You're welcome, remember if anything happens, call me. Okay?" He gave me a smile and a wave and left.
