My morning training went really well today, and my overall mood was amazing! On my way to school I helped a little kid find her mother, it was a simple act but it made my day even better. I could already feel it, today was going to be good. Made it to school on time and even had a small conversation with Todoroki, and to make it better he asked me to call him Shouto! I forced Shouto to let me pay for lunch, and we went back to the rooftop to talk. It was quiet and there was a slight breeze. As I picked at my lunch I would steal glances at the male. He really was the class prettyboy. He had a perfect jaw, sharp enough to cut. His eyes, although cold, had a hidden compassion behind them. I'm sure Shouto noticed me staring sometimes, but he never seemed to mind. I couldn't help but ask myself why he would be friends with me. I already knew I was developing a crush but had to force it away. You don't have crushes when you're fighting to be number 1 hero. Soon lunch ended, and the rest of the day was quite normal. After a while school ended and I made my way to the school gates to see Uraraka, Midoriya, and Iida waiting at the front gate.

"Hey guys whats up!" I shout slightly walking up to them with a giant smile.

"Actually we were waiting for you (l/n)! We were wondering if you wanted to hang out with us, we were going to go the the arcade!" Uraraka replied with her cheery smile and cute pink cheeks.

"Oh! I really wish I could attend, but unfortunately I have work today!" I reply rubbing the back of my neck. Omg (y/n) why did you sound so formal. Stupid. I inwardly cringe at my choice of words. I scan each of their faces to see a little bit of sadness...they actually wanted to hang out.

"That is unfortunate, we were looking forward to hanging out. But you manage to have a job while attending U.A, I give you my respect." Iida replied with one of his weird hand movements. I waved my goodbyes as I see Todoroki walking up to me, I take out my phone to check the time really quick. I have enough time for a quick chat with Shouto.

"Hey (y/n)." Shouto spoke in his flat tone as he walked up to me, "Do you want to walk with me to the train station?"

"I would really love to, but I have work today." I spoke with an obvious sadness in my voice. I really like being with Shouto, he makes me feel safe. Which is a weird thing for me.

"I can walk you to work." Shouto replied with his same old monotone voice as he continues walking, I start walking with him.

"You don't have too," I speak breaking the silence, although I really hope he does.

"I want to." He spoke softly this time glancing down at me slightly. I could feel my face heat up slightly but I shook my head slightly to get rid of my thoughts, "I wanted to ask you something actually."

"Yeah go ahead." I reply scanning his face

"Do you...um.." he seemed to try to ask something but he shook his head slightly, "When do you get off of work?"

"It's quite late, around 10." I reply as we got closer to town where I work at a small cafe.

"I'll stop by and walk you home." He spoke calmly as he stopped outside of the popular cafe. I tried to object but Shouto kept walking,"I'm not taking no for an answer."

Well shit. I try to calm my nerves, wondering how Shouto will react to where I live. I push the thought out of my head and head to work with my 'worker smile'. Time was going ever so slowly as every minute seemed to drag out. There was a few of you're writer typing away at their computers, I liked to imagine what they would be writing about. There was a small girl in the corner with giant glasses typing away, sometimes looking around with a blush on her face before typing away more. She was definetly writing smut. I laughed a the thought before hearing the little door.
