Shikichi Miho's POV

I stood at the sidewalk waiting for Shintani-san. It had been five minutes later than the original meeting time, but this was Shintani-san, so I wasn't surprised that she was late. 

I wore some mom jeans and a crop top, but I covered it with a sweater. I sighed and leaned against wall of the building. 

I pull out my phone and I see my phone blow up with texts:
'I'm so sorryyy, I overslept' 'I'm coming now don't worry' 'I will be there in ten minutes' 'And yes I know texting while driving is bad, but I'm being careful don't worry'. 

I sighed deeply. We became friends in that typical 'extrovert adopted the introvert' way, she being the extrovert of course. 

I could get along okay with people I just didn't like too overcrowded spaces. I'm also not the type to first initiate a conversation. However when I'm doing my job I can, and then it's not difficult for me to do so. 

Shintani-san calls me weirdo for that. I guess she's right, I am a weirdo. I smiled at the thought. I wasn't ashamed to say that I was. My thoughts get interrupted by a honking car. I look and see Shintani-san's blonde hair peek from the car. 

"Get in!!" I walk over to the other side and get in the bright green car. "I'm so sorry, that I'm late." A guilty smile placed on her face. I smiled back at her and ruffled her hair. "It's fine, lets just go." She nodded frantically and started driving towards the mall.

We walked through the mall, well technically I was just following an overexcited dog that was acting like she had never seen a mall before. 

"Oeh, oeh lets check this store out!" she grabbed my arm and pulled me so fast I thought I would fall flat on my face. She grabbed every clothing item she was interested in and threw it in my arms. 

I felt like the uncomfortable boyfriend who wanted to leave. Which was partially true, I hated shopping. 

Once she had enough clothes she took it from my arms and ran in the fitting rooms. I sometimes wonder how I'm able to put up with her. I decided to take this opportunity to look through some clothes see if I could find something I liked. 

Like I thought I didn't, but that was probably also the case that this was more of a shop for girly girls. 

After a while I had to go to the fitting rooms and look at all the outfits she had put on. After that was done she had a few clothing pieces she actually wanted, so she paid for that and we went back out. 

I shivered. She looked at me concerned. "Are you cold?" I shook my head. "Overcrowded." Was all I had to say for her to understand. "Sorry for dragging you all the way here, Shikichi-chan." I smiled. 

"It's fine." I tried reassuring her but then she clung onto my arm. "Your such a good friend, I don't deserve youuuu!!" she dramatically exclaimed. I just froze. "Shintani-san please stop, people are staring." She let go with a pout.

"Ah, I need to pee." She whined. "Then go pee." She nodded and left the bags with me before running to the public toilets. I searched the mall before spotting a nearby bench where I could sit. 

I start walking towards the bench but before I could I stumble into someone, making me drop the bags, and before I could fall to the ground a hand grabs my wrist. I look at the person who just saved me from utter embarrassment. 

My eyes widen when I look into the same red eyes from a week ago. I stand back up. He looked a bit panicked that I saw him.

Shigaraki Tomura's POV

I cursed myself for accidently bumping into her. That wasn't supposed to happen. I was following her today, but I lost track of her and the next thing I know I walk into her. 

"Thanks, aren't you that guy from a week ago? You ran into me back then too?" embarrassment fills me up. Damnit. But somewhere inside me I felt happy that's he remembered me. "Sorry about that..." I look at the ground. I had to act like any normal young adult right now, otherwise she might get suspicious. 

"It's okay, just wish you hadn't disappeared on me like that." I looked at her. "Uhm, my name is Shikichi Miho, pleasure to meet you." She smiled at me. 

I had seen her smile before, but now she was actually smiling at me. I wanted to touch her and hold her close and make sure she could never leave me. I snapped out of my train of thoughts to see her looking at me with her brows raised. She chuckled. 

"What's your name?" I panicked a bit but didn't show. In panic I said the first name that came up in me. "Shimura Tenko." I just realised that I told her my old name. She smiled again. 

You need to stop doing that, Miho-chan. I wont be able to control myself if you keep doing that. 

The corners of my mouth slightly raised upward. I had to hold myself back which was a lot harder now she was in front of me. Before I could say something else there was a yell that made her turn around. 

"Shikichi-chan!!" her loud and annoying friend caught up and panted as she stood next to Miho. She frowned as she saw me. "Who is this?" Miho turned to me and hesitated. "He's an acquaintance." I frowned slightly. Her friend nodded still a bit unsure. 

"We have to go, but I'll see you around I guess." She gave me small smile that was enough to warm the inside of my cold dead heart. I nodded and turned around and started making my way back to the hide out.

Shikichi Miho's POV

"He was sketchy." Shintani-san frowned. "I guess, but he's also kind of cute." She turned to me and laid her hand on my forehead. 

"Well your not warm." I glared at her and smacked her hand away. "I'm just saying he's cute." She let out a breathy laugh. 

"Yeah and your taste in men is terrible, he looked dehydrated and like he had not slept in years." I shoved her in her ribs. "Shut it."

Damn the chapters keep getting longer. 

Anyways, comment and vote. Thank youu.
