Once I got into my room, I changed into my hoodie and sweatpants that I usually sleep in. Melody was still in my room, so she curled up next to my feet. Once I was asleep, nothing bothered me for a while.

For the next few days nothing happened except when I had to attend Nighteye's funeral. It's a good thing that a lot of the stuff that I own is black. I decided that wearing black jeans and a black hoodie wouldn't be appreciated, so I settled with a black dress that goes below the knee and has a built in petticoat, so it gives the dress a little puff. It also has three-quarter length sleeves that are out of a floral black mesh. Once I got the dress on, I curled my hair and tried to look as presentable as I could. I generated the sleeves and leggings that would cover the scars and cuts. Before I left my room, I dug around in my closet for my one pair of heels, which were black of course. I took them out of their box and carried them down by the door and left them there as I waited for Aizawa to come out while I waited on the sofa. Once he was ready, we put on our shoes and went out to the car.

Since I wasn't so used to hearing heals, though they weren't that tall, it felt weird being a few inches taller. I liked it. When we got in the car and were on our way down the road, I began to pick off long pieces of cat fur that the lint roller didn't pick up. As I was in the middle of doing that, Aizawa asked, "Since when do you wear heels?"

I continued to remove cat fur as I replied, "I don't, but I figured that this is a time that I should wear them. I haven't worn them before so they're practically brand new."

"And the dress, I don't think I've ever seen you wear one besides the skirt with your uniform, like...once." he added.

"Yeah, I got it cause it was cheap and black." I said as I finished up what I was doing. "I see that trying to find black clothing for you wasn't a hassle."

He chuckled, "Nope, not one bit."

"Same for me." I said under my breath as I looked out the window. I paused as I thought of something before asking in a quiet and timid tone, "How do you act at a funeral?"

"What?" he asked.

I wasn't sure if he just didn't hear me since I did speak quietly, or if he was surprised at the question. I repeated a little louder than the first time, "How do you act-"

"I heard you the first time, but how do you not know how to act at a funeral?" he said in a tone that made me think he was mad at me.

I was almost scared to speak, but I squeaked out, "I've never been to one."

"Like how you've never been to a shrine?" he asked in return.

"Yeah..."

He sighed before explaining what to do, which I still wasn't sure if I wasn't going to mess anything up. We then rode the rest of the way there in near silence since the radio is always on in the background that's barely audible. When we got there, I followed behind him and copied what he did. Once I found those who were in my class, I joined them so it looked like I went on my own instead of hitching a ride with Aizawa. As we were there, I could feel the emotion in the room, which I haven't felt since Nighteye's passing. The emotion in the room was very sad and heavy. I wanted to leave because I felt like I could be crushed by it. Once it was over, I waited and watched from a distance for when Aizawa left, so I could go to the car too. When we got back to the apartment, nothing interesting happened after that.

During that next week, we as a whole class had to decide on a thing that we were going to do for the festival. So many ideas were being thrown out there that we wasted a whole homeroom period debating on ideas. I didn't care what we did, so I just threw in my earbuds and allowed the rest of them to figure something out. My opinion on something wouldn't change anything, so it didn't matter to me. Since we couldn't pick, we were told to come up with something by the next day that we were to be in school. That Saturday, I figured that I should go and visit Eri since I hadn't seen her in a little while. I got ready a little before noon and teleported to the hospital just as it hit noon.

When I got there, Aizawa was standing in the doorway with a doctor and a nurse standing in the hall behind him. I walked up to him as I asked, "What're you doing here?"

He averted his eyes from inside the room to me, "I could ask you the same thing."

"I promised Eri that I'd come and visit her every so often since she said she doesn't want to be alone." I said.

Once I got close enough, I saw that Mirio and Midoriya were in the room, sitting next to her bed on stools, talking to her. Aizawa looked back towards them as he said, "They wanted to see her too. They wanted to make sure that she was doing alright."

I stood in the doorway too and leaned against the door frame, "How kind of them. She always enjoys visitors."

Before he could respond, Midoriya went up to Aizawa and asked if Eri could attend the schools festival. As he called Nezu to see if that would be alright with him, Midoriya came up to me and asked, "Oh, hi, Y/N, what are you doing here?"

"I came to see Eri. I promised I'd come back soon." I said.

"You've come to see her before?" he asked.

I nodded my head, "Yep, many times."

"Well, why don't you join us instead of hanging out back here with Mr. Aizawa." he suggested.

I stood up from leaning on the door frame and said, "Okay, I'll join you's."

He then took a seat on the stool that he was sitting at while I stood next to the table that was next to the bed, closest to Midoriya. Eri took notice of me as her face lit up, "You're back!" she said happily.

"Yep, like I promised." I said with a smile.

She picked up the bunny I generated and held it out, "I still have it; a nurse tried to take it away, but I wouldn't let them."

I kept up the smile the best I could as I said, "That's good that you're fighting for what's yours. Why did she want to take it in the first place though?"

She hugged the stuffed animal as she said, "I don't know, but she said that if I didn't take the medicine, she'd take it away. I don't see why she would have said that. I always take the horrible tasting medicine."

"That's good you are, it will make you all better in no time." I said.

Midoriya then asked, "Wait, you generated the rabbit for her?" I nodded my head. "Awe, it's cute looking."

I then asked Mirio, "How have you been?"

He responded with a smile, "I'm great! Since I'm taking some time off from school, I've been training still. I've gotten stronger in a short amount of time!"

I chuckled with a smile, "That's wonderful to hear."

Midoriya then asked, "How has your arm been, Y/N? I've noticed that you have a muscle spasm every once in a while in your right arm."

"Yeah, though it's now fully grown in and pretty much all of the muscles are there, they still grow ever so slightly and hurt sometimes. It's calming down now though, so it's becoming less and less each day." I replied.

"That's good to hear." he said with a smile.

As soon as he said that, Aizawa walked up to us and said, "Alright, it's time to go."

Midoriya and Mirio said their goodbyes to Eri, and once they left I took Miroiya's spot. I then stayed there for a little while longer since I generated some cards so then we could play a few card games. Once I left, I used that time to relax since the past weeks were super busy during hero duty; I even had to do a few hours of overtime since things had popped up a few minutes before I clocked out.
