Another Love | part 3

Summary: you've been hopelessly in love with Han since you were children. One night you confess your feelings to him.

Words count: 5,082

Warnings: do I even have to warn you guys about angst at this point?

A/N: this is not proofread because I'm sleepy, tomorrow I'll probably come back and fix the things that should be fixed.

I'm planning two or three more parts for this fic.

Seungmin got home after work and awkwardly told you he found a new roommate, it's a friend from his highschool time.

“That's great”, you tell him, even though you're worried, because that means you have to go back home and you just don't know if you're ready yet.

“I asked him for two weeks, so I could settle everything, so take your time”, he says and you nod.

That is a good amount of time, Jeongho is coming to see you in two days and you're really looking forward to seeing him. You find yourself already missing the man even though it's barely two weeks since you last saw him last.

Things with Jeongho are going slowly but great, he's sweet and makes sure you're comfortable with every advance he makes. You can't deny, being the object of affection of such a handsome and interesting person is flattering.

“Do you wanna go out before I move out? We can go watch a movie or eat something nice, it's on me”, you ask while watching him walk to his room.

“That would be nice, I'll check my schedule and we can set the date”, he tells you before closing the door to his bedroom.

You're so grateful to Seungmin, if it wasn't for him you would have been forced to stay living with Jisung after he rejected you, or you would have had to rent a crap apartment on short notice so you could have a place to stay without bothering anyone.

Speaking of the devil, it's the first time in a few days you're thinking about Jisung and you realize how relieved you are. It makes you believe things are finally looking up for you.

Living in Japan, Jeongho can only come to see you on weekends when he's not working. So you basically spend two weekends a month with him, it's not perfect but at the same time you two decided to take things slowly so you're taking your time to actually develop your feelings for him. What doesn't take very long.

You're not sure if it's because you were deprived of an actual romantic relationship for quite some time or if it happens to be like that because Jeongho is such a warm person to be around, but you just know you like him.

You are at the airport, waiting for him to arrive. When people start coming out of the gate, you tiptoe trying to find him in the crowd.

He's doing the same as you, but being taller it's not so difficult for him to find you. You jump and wave with your arms even though you know he already saw you, but you're just too excited to see him.

“And here I thought it would be difficult finding you”, he stops in front of you while you throw your arms around his neck and squeeze him into your embrace.

“I missed you”, you tell him. He chuckles, bringing his hands up and cupping your face, lightly brushing his lips on yours before landing the most sweet kiss.

“I missed you too”, he tells you, connecting your foreheads. You smile brightly, feeling warm.

You really like Jeongho, and that makes you wonder how your life would have been if you had said yes to him in middle school.

“Let's go”, you say, intertwining you fingers with him, “you have to rest because I have lots of fun planned for us”

He nods, paying attention to every word you say while you tell him some of the things you want to do during the weekend.

You stay in his hotel since you can't take him to sleep on Seungmin's sofa. You two ask for room service and talk about everything—his life in Japan, his work, your major, your tutoring and how things are going now that you will have to go back to live with Jisung.

“How are you feeling about that?” He asks, while you eat.

“Honestly, I don't know”, you tell him. “But I'm pretty confident, things are different now, I even have a hot boyfriend”, you joke, making him choke on his food.

“I don't remember being asked out”, he says, raising one eyebrow.

“Well, I thought it was a giving”, you shrug, biting on your burger, “since you're down bad for me”

He laughs out loud, throwing his head back.

“I'm not saying you're wrong, but you could be a little more humble”, he tells you, grabbing a napkin and whipping the ketchup off of the corner of your lips.

“Don't you think I've been humble enough for like a decade?”

“You got a point”

You soon finish your dinner and turn on the TV so you can watch a movie. It's just comfortable being with Jeongho, he makes the storm that usually is your mind become a light rain.

The next day is packed, you wake him up at 9 a.m. knowing it's going to be difficult to take him out of bed, especially when he keeps holding you and trying to make you stay in his warm embrace.

“We have to go”, you tell him, trying to escape from his heavy arm around your waist.

“Just more five minutes”, he asks, snuggling his head in the crock of your neck.

You really do want to stay like this with him, but you can't be swayed, you two have a full schedule that must be fulfilled.

“Jeongho, we must go or we are going to lose my first surprise”, you pout.

“Surprise?” He asks, backing away to look at you.

“Yes, I prepared a lot of things for us to do this weekend”, you give him a smug smile, “I didn't tell you half of it yesterday”

“Hm, that does sound interesting”, the hold on your waist tightens, making your body press even more against his. Jeongho lands a kiss on your cheek, then on your neck, going slower, “but you'll have to give me more than that to convince me that anything you planned is better than this”, you gasp feeling his hot breath hitting on your skin.

“I-”, you're not sure if you want to go out anymore, after feeling his soft lips again. “Babe”, you whisper, almost giving up when he flinches, backing away again. He is blushing.

“Did you just call me ‘babe’?” He asks flustered and you nod, smiling sheepishly.

“I mean, if you don't like it-”

“Of course I like it”, he answers fast, sitting on the bed. “Let's go, if you keep this up I won't let you get out of this bed for the whole weekend”, he tells you, getting up.

That offer does sound tempting, you sigh, but you two really do have lots to do.

Jeongho is not your first boyfriend, you didn't spend years pining over Jisung just waiting. Trying to get over him one way or another, you had your fair share of relationships, they just quite never made you feel like it was enough.

Until now. Jeongho easily swept you off your feet, liking him is just natural.

“Say cheese”, he asks while taking a selfie of you two, you're resting in a cafe after walking for hours.

“You really do like taking pictures”, you say and he nods.

“I do, especially when I'm with the second prettiest woman in the world”, he tells you.

You chuckle.

“May I presume that the number one is your mother?”

“Of course, dear. Who else could compete with you?”, he jokes, making you roll your eyes.

Jeongho’s name is called and he excuses himself to go to the counter to get your orders. This cafe you're visiting just opened, it is pretty popular and always crowded. You were only able to secure a table for your date because Hanna has a friend who works at the cafe and they were able to reserve it for you.

You hear the noise from the bell on the door and lift your eyes out of your phone to look at it, meeting Jisung's eyes.

What is he doing here?

“I didn't want to say it, but I think the cake you make is prettier than this one”, you hear Jeongho's voice, making you turn away to look at him, praying that your best friend won't try to talk to you.

Jeongho is much more sensible than you think, he picks up on your sudden stiffness and the awkwardness on your face, looking around to find out what happened. He sees Jisung coming in your direction hand in hand with a girl.

His right hand moves fast to the hand you have on the table, and his left one lands on your back, giving you reassurance.

“Jisung, it's been a while”, Jeongho says, voice more stern than you're used to, making you look at his face again, to see him almost glaring at your friend.

“Jeongho”, Han smiles, glancing at the hand your boyfriend has over yours and noticing how close you're from each other, “I thought you lived in Japan”, he points out.

“I do, but I come often to visit my girlfriend”, Jeongho smiles pretentiously.

“Your what now?” Han asks him, but he's looking at you, “last time I checked you haven't seen each other for almost ten years”

You turn your hand around, interlacing your fingers with Jeongho.

“Well, it has been a while since you last checked”, you answer, confidently.

Jisung's stand falters and the frown in his face is just priceless but you feel bad that he had to find out this way.

“Why are you being so awkward”, Lia says, glaring at him, “you should be happy for them”

She smiles at you.

“I'm happy for you, y/n, please take good care of her”, she tells Jeongho and he smiles kindly at her. “We will be on our way, then”

You have known Lia for a few months now. She was always nice to you, going to the apartment all the time and you thought her and Jisung to be just friends until you saw him smiling when he picked up her call, the same smile you have coveted for so long, wishing you were the one in the receiving end of that smile.

But you never were.

There's no reason for you to dislike her just because she is with him, now you have your own love and you don't need to wish for the affection of someone that doesn't have it in them to give it to you.

“Well, that was awkward”, Jeongho's voice takes you out of your daze. “Are you alright?”, he asks, bending down to be closer to you.

You smile at him, giving him a peck on the lips.

“I'm good, I have you”, you tell him. The man smiles brightly, tilting his head while looking at you lovingly.

“Now I'm thinking you're the one who's down bad for me”, he scoffs playfully, standing up and sitting in front of you.

“I can't confirm nor deny”, you say, winking at him. “What I can confirm is that the cake I bake is prettier than this one”, you bring back what he told you before.

“That's what I'm telling you!” He says excitedly, forgetting about Jisung, and honestly, you do too.

Why is she laughing so much? Is he even that funny? Or is she just trying to win his favor? Those are the thoughts Jisung has in his head while waiting for his order to get ready, he can't stop stealing glances at you, he misses your smiles and your laugh, there was a time he was the main reason for that beautiful sound to come out of your mouth.

“They look good together”, Lia's voice never sounded so annoying to him, what is she even talking about? You and Jeongho don't look good at all.

He gets up when his name is called, going to the counter to pick up his order and walking outside to meet Lia after. He can't stop thinking about you, if you hadn't gone away he would be the first person to know about you and Jeongho. It's just weird for him not being the first person you tell things to, that's what is bothering him he's sure of it.

The fact that he couldn't listen to anything Lia said throughout their whole date honestly worries him, Jisung has no idea what's happening to him and why he's acting this way towards the girl he was so into a few months ago.

He tries to bury himself in work, doing everything to stop thinking. He's afraid of what he's going to find out if he dig any deeper trying to understand his feelings.

You're in front of your apartment, you know the passcode and you know Jisung is not there at that moment but you just can't move. You have your huge bag hanging on your shoulder and another one on the floor, the only thing you have to do is go inside, so why is it so terrifying? The other time you went there to pick your books and some clothes, you didn't feel this way.

Was it because you knew you were not staying? Or was it because you and your best friend were on better terms at the time? Maybe you should just rent a crap apartment and go live alone. But how are you going to explain that to your parents? You can’t run away from Jisung your whole life, he is your best friend.

“Oh dear, were you traveling?” You hear the voice of the old lady who lives right next door.

You turn around, putting the sweetest smile you have on your lips.

“Hello, Mrs. Park, I was visiting a friend”, you half lie.

“Oh, that sounds like fun”, she giggles, “are you having trouble going inside?”

“Actually, Jisung changed the password and forgot to tell me”, you smile, lying through your teeth now, “I'm waiting for him to answer my texts”

She nods.

“Oh, your generation don't like to call, right? If I were you, I would call him until he picked up”, she jokes, “would you like to come inside to wait? You're going to get tired by just standing there”

You breathe, relieved, you know it's just a temporary measure but you'll take any opportunity not to enter your apartment yet.

“I would love to”, you answer her, grabbing the bag from the floor and following her inside.

Her apartment has pretty much the same layout as yours, but the decoration couldn't be any more different. She has lots of trinkets, frames and a clock hanging on the wall. There are a lot of pictures of her children and grandchildren.

“What about your husband?” You ask, sitting on the sofa while watching her going through the kitchen and putting some water to boil.

“He's visiting his brother in the countryside”, she answers. Your eyes wander around the room, landing on a frame with a beautiful couple. The picture looks old as it has a lot of aging marks.

“Oh, it's me and my husband”, Mrs. Park says, making you flinch to hear her so close to you. She has a proud smile on her lips. “Quite a handsome couple, weren't we?” She points out and you nod.

“Yes, a very charming couple”

She sighs, putting the tray with the teacups on the table in the center of the room.

“You know, he was my best friend”, she sits on the sofa, pointing to the other side for you to do the same, “I didn't always see him as a man, you know? I was in love with someone else at the time he confessed”

You stare at her, not sure what she's trying to say.

“But that guy broke my heart and he was there to pick it up and I fell in love”, she completes, with loving eyes.

“I'm not sure if I understand”, you say, feeling strangely uncomfortable.

“I'm telling you that the person you like may take a bit of time to understand his feelings”, she smiles kindly, “but I'm sure he will come to his senses”

You drop your eyes to your hands, fidgeting with your fingers. You're sure the old lady is only telling you that so you can feel better, but you don't feel like that at all. You don't want Jisung to like you now, you are exhausted from waiting for him.

“Your story is amazing, Mrs. Park”, you tell her, “but I already have someone who's absolutely sure of his feelings for me”, you stand, “I don't think I'll have to wait for another love”

She stares at you for a moment, analyzing you, trying to guess if you're being serious. Then, she smiles, standing too.

“I'm glad you came to that conclusion, honey”, she gets closer, patting you on the back. “Did Jisung send you the password?”, she asks, seeing you collect your bags.

“Yes, I have everything I need to go back home”, you say, thanking her for the hospitality.

You take a few deep breaths before pressing the password on the lock of your door. The house is the same as it was when you last went there.

You put your things in your room, unpacking your belongings and putting everything in place. You go to the living room, opening the glass door to the balcony so some air can circulate inside, you're sure Jisung spent his days out and didn't worry about opening the house a bit.

You go to the kitchen, there's nothing in the freezer, you already knew that you'd find it empty so it's time to go grocery shopping.

You're in the middle of the vegetables section when your phone buzzes. Looking at the device, you see Jeongho's name lightening the screen.

“Hey”, you answer, smiling.

“Hello, my love”, he says, you hear heavy breathing in the back of the call.

“Is everything okay?” You ask, worried.

“Yeah, I was hitting the gym and they called me from the office saying they needed me”, he sighs, rustling at the other side of the line.

“If you're in a hurry why are you calling me?” You ask, frowning.

“Of course, it's because I told you I would call you in the afternoon”, he tells you like it's the most obvious thing in the world and you giggle, feeling the happiest at that moment, warmth growing on your chest.

“You could have just texted me”, you tell him.

“Then I wouldn't be able to hear your sweet voice”, you're sure he has that flirty playful smile on his lips while saying that.

You sigh, leaning on a shelf from the store.

“I miss you”, you tell him.

On the other side of the line Jeongho stops on his tracks, smiling to himself while fidgeting.

“Me too, I can't wait to see you next weekend”, he says, “I was thinking maybe we could have dinner with all your friends so I can be officially introduced?”

“Yeah, that would be great”, you say, “I'll talk to them”

“Okay, I have to go now but I'll text you later”

It's great having someone who actually reciprocates your feelings, much better, someone you're so into as Jeongho.

You walk out of the elevator struggling to carry the groceries, finding a feminine figure hovering over your door. When she turns around, you recognize Lia.

“Hey”, you frown, did Jisung not tell her he was out?

“Y/N, hey!” She says, smiling at you. “Here, let me help you”, she says, grabbing two bags out of your hands.

“Thank you!” You say, “Jisung is not home right now, but come inside to wait for him, I don't think he's going to take long”

You open the door, giving space for her to walk in and then close the door.

“I'm sorry about showing up unannounced”, she smiles sheepishly, putting the bags on the table in the kitchen. “I texted Jisung but he didn't see my texts, I just wanted to give this to him”, she says, taking a pot out of her bag.

“Oh, okay”, you take it from her hands and turn around, putting it in the fridge.

“You can have some, I made a lot”, she says awkwardly and you smile at her.

“Thank you, Lia. Are you sure you don't want to wait?” You ask, looking at the mirror, you're sure he will be home soon and if she stays it's less of an opportunity for you to speak to him.

“I have class”, she sighs, “can you tell him to call me?”

“Sure, I'll tell him”, you nod. She starts walking to the door and you accompany her, saying goodbye and watching her enter the elevator, waving goodbye to you while the doors are closing.

You're sure you could have been friends if things were different. You sigh, rolling up the sleeves of your shirt while going back inside.

You brought a lot of vegetables, they all need to be washed before being put in the fridge, so you start taking them out of the bags to organize everything.

You have the sink’s tap running and some music playing on your phone, so when the door is opened and a tired Jisung enters the house you don't seem to notice.

He stares at you as if you're a mirage, happiness overflowing in his chest with your presence back home. He watches as you hum to the song playing, a few strands of your hair falling on your face.

With a bowl of vegetables ready to be stored, you turn around bumping into your best friend, making you jump.

“When did you get here?” You ask, with your hand on your chest, heart beating fast, not sure if it's because of the surprise or because you're finally facing him.

“I just got here”, he lies, he can't tell you it's been minutes he's there watching you.

You nod, opening the fridge to store the vegetables, trying to avoid his gaze. Not sure of how to act now that you're back.

“Oh, Lia stopped by and left you this”, you point to the pot.

“I'm sorry, I didn't know she was going to come here”, he starts explaining and you frown.

“There's no reason for you to apologize, she's your girlfriend”, you answer nonchalantly and he steps back, feeling a sudden ache in his chest. You're not even looking at him while saying that, but why is it that you look so unbothered? Are you really over him? That's what he wanted, so why doesn't he feel relieved?

“She's not my girlfriend”, he tells you, frowning. You finally look at him, he's staring at you like he expects something from you. You don't know what he wants and you sure don't have the energy to try and find out.

“Anyway”, you say, closing the fridge, “I'm sure she'll be your girlfriend soon, you can bring her anytime you want don't mind me”

“Won't you feel uncomfortable?” He asks, fidgeting uncomfortably.

“Not at all”, you grab your phone and put it in your pocket, ready to go take a shower. “I plan on bringing my boyfriend a lot here, so it won't be fair to you if you can't do the same”

You flash him a smile before heading to your room. You're acting the same as you did before your confession, so why does it make him so miserable now?

“So, does he want to ask for your hand in marriage or something like that?” Felix asks, making you and Hannah choke on your drinks, while Hyunjin and Minho laugh at your reaction. “I'm just asking!”

“No, why would you even think that?”, you chuckle.

“It's such a formal thing to have dinner like this”, Seungmin points out, “normal people just arrange a meeting at a cafe or something like that”

“He likes y/n, he must not be right in the head”, Jeongin says and you smack him in the head, making him pout.

“I think it's cute that he wants to meet you all formally”, you say.

“I think it's nice too”, Hannah supports you, “if you guys don't wanna go just say it”

“Now, we didn't say that”, Minho says. “It's just a bit weird to finally meet a boyfriend you actually like. Especially since we all thought Hannie would fall in love with you eventually”

You nod, sighing and feeling a bit upset with his comment, but you know it's impossible for people to forget you were in love with Jisung for more than a decade.

“Yeah, I get where you're coming from, but I'm happy with Jeongho and I want you all to meet him and know how great he is”

Minho nods.

“Yeah, okay. Then, I guess I'll have to give him the ‘dad talk’”, he says seriously and everyone laughs at your terrified face.

“Please don't”, you beg him.

You get home earlier than expected, Jisung is not home yet so you have the house to yourself for a bit. A long, hot shower is everything you need to relax. It's been a long week with awkward interactions between you and Jisung, you kept trying to avoid him, at least until you feel comfortable like you used to.

You spend too much time organizing your wardrobe, when you look at the time you realize how late it is. So you grab a towel and hurry to the bathroom, trying to get back to your room before Jisung gets home.

The hot water does wonders to you, even though you have to take a quick shower, it helps a lot with your sore muscles from stress.

When you wrap yourself in the towel and your clothes are nowhere to be found, you know you fucked up. It's even worse when you hear the beeps at the door, fucking hell. Things are already awkward, if you walk out of this bathroom in only a piece of fabric, things will be even worse.

You can tell Jisung is in the kitchen because you can hear him walking around, opening the cabinets and humming to some music while setting the table. You're sure you can just run to your room and he'll never know this happened.

That would be a great plan, actually, if Han wasn't knocking on your room's door exactly when you got out of the bathroom.

He turns around, with a big smile on his face that automatically dies down the moment he sees you. Your life is so fucked up, really. You have been living together for three years, of course he had seen you in only a towel before but things were inevitably different now. Maybe he thinks you did this on purpose?

"Ahm-", you're trying to explain yourself, you can tell he's speechless, "I was trying to shower before you arrived and happened to forget to take my clothes with me", you say, smiling sheepishly.

"Oh, yeah", he answers, stepping aside so you can enter your room. "You can come eat when you're done, I brought pizza", he says and you nod, walking fast into your room and locking the door.

From now on you'll have a checklist of things you have to take to the bathroom when showering so your dumbass doesn't forget about the most important thing: clothes.

Han feels his ears getting warmer, you look somehow different, he just can't tell exactly what changed. Every other time you saw him in a towel or the other way around, you both would brush it off and laugh about it, why does he feel so embarrassed now?

"Did you change your hair?" He asks, your mouth is full so you can't answer him right away.

"No? Maybe it grew a bit"

"That must be it", he nods.

Yeah, it's definitely her hair that's different, he thinks.

"I'll do the dishes, you must be tired after practicing all day", you say, gathering the plates.

Han nods, getting up and telling you he's going to take a shower.

The image of the drops of water running from your hair through your neck and chest and disappearing in the soft fabric is the first thing that comes to Jisung's mind when the hot water hits his skin.

Where you always like that? Your skin looked so soft, he felt the urge to caress it, what would your reaction be if he touched you?

Han frowns, why the hell is he thinking about that? He must be crazy, it's the only reasonable answer.

The fact that another date with Lia went by and Jisung couldn't pay attention to a word she said makes it clear to him that things are not the same between them and that he doesn't want to keep things going as they are.

“I think we shouldn't see each other anymore”, he says, when they arrive at her apartment. Lia's hands stop before she can open the door and she turns around slowly, looking at Jisung.

“What are you talking about?” She asks, leaning on the door, staring at the guy she likes. He sighs, trying to come up with a good explanation for the reason he wants to end things.

“I just, don't feel the same anymore”, he looks at his feet, not able to look her in the eyes yet.

She is staring at him, crossed arms in front of her chest, trying to hold the tears, trying not to break.

“You have been acting indifferent to me for quite some time now”, she points out, with a bitter smile on her lips. “I should have ended things when I first noticed it, I guess I just like you that much, huh”, she completes, taking a deep breath.

“I'm sorry”, Han sighs, finally looking at her, “I didn't mean to hurt you”

“Yeah”, she scoffs, “Is it because of y/n?”

Jisung's eyes widen.

“It was always quite clear that she liked you”, she completes, before he can say anything. “I just didn't pay any mind to it because you guys have been friends for such a long time”

“It's not like that-”, he tries to argue.

“That day at the cafe you couldn't take your eyes out of her and that guy”, she points out, “she liked you for so long and right when she finds someone else you start liking her?” Lia scoffs, feeling the tears brimming in her eyes.

“I don't like her like that”, he says and the girl rolls her eyes.

“Yeah, keep telling yourself that”, she says before turning around and entering her apartment, closing the door in his face.

i rlly need a part 2 of we got married in japan like where nijiro and reader meet at his favorite place and he finds that reader is still wearing the ring omg-

ｎｏｗｌｏａｄｉｎｇ …

▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒ 100%

ᴄᴏᴍᴘʟᴇᴛᴇ!

・❥・requested

an: click this to read part 1

→ fem!reader

• nijiro is up for a surprise. • one year after the final episode of the couple, the producers of the variety show program contacted you, nijiro's virtual wife, for a reunion.

Y/N: "It's been a really, really long time since I last saw and spoke with Nijiro! I've spent a month in Manila to film a movie and three months in Prague for another movie. Apart from that, I've also been invited to various fashion shows so I've never really gotten the chance to personally contact him."

• all nijiro knows is that he's been given a portfolio about an upcoming drama that his manager gave him. • all the while he's reading the printed plot on the portfolio, his road manager is already taking him an all familiar place he used to know - the house you two shared during your three month marriage. • upon arrival, nijiro is all ????? because he sees no buildings, no parked luxury cars. all he sees is the little house with a small garden, the sight of it immediately had him chuckling.

Nijiro: Truthfully speaking, the movie my manager gave me really looked interesting. I already tried channeling being the brother of the main character but...to my surprise...the house is in front of me. Does Y/N know? No. Ah, she's definitely in for a surprise.

• oh boy, nijiro, it's actually the other way around- • opening the front door, nijiro proceeds to remove his shoes in the doorway, already thinking of making y/n's favorite dish when he hears a familiar voice spoke to him.

"Welcome home." It was Y/N, white apron already adorning in front of her, peeking through the kitchen with a soup ladle in one hand.

"Honey" Nijiro sweetly spoke, walking towards the kitchen from where she stood. "It's been a while." He comments, looking at the preparations Y/N is making.

"Can I help?" He asks, eyes blinking.

"Hm?" Y/N hums. "But I'm about to be done. Just sit over the dining table."

"Eh?" Nijiro makes a sound. "But I can't have you doing all the work."

• as food preparations are done, the former couple that everyone loved sat down and had dinner together, just like old times.

"I was so surprised that everyone really loved us on the program." Y/N says after swallowing the food in her mouth. "I'm sorry that I couldn't contact you often. I was already filming for a lot of movies."

"It's alright." Nijiro comments, "I hope you didn't forget bringing your umbrella with you now. You used to keep forgetting it."

"I always have my umbrella with me now!" Y/N chirps.

Nijiro: When I'm with Y/N, it suddenly feels like I'm filming We Got Married again. That's how much we grew close and comfortable in our relationship.

Y/N: It's nice how I finally got the chance to talk to Nijiro again.

"What has my honey been up to lately?" Nijiro asks in a sweet yet teasing tone.

"I've finished filming a move overseas and a commercial for a lipstick brand too!" Y/N beams.

"Ah, I've seen that lipstick commercial." Nijiro comments. "I'm jealous of the guy in the commercial. The producers should have hired me instead." He jokes, jokingly shaking his head as well.

• halfway through nijiro, it was only at that time did nijiro's eyes averted to her left ring finger, the ring still adorning on her finger. • a wave of warmth washed over his chest, taking out the ring he turned into a necklace; showing it to Y/N.

"I still have mine here too." He says, the little ring gleaming right in front of her.

Leaving

~*~ Chapter 4 ~*~

Hawks x slightly older!fem!Reader

Warnings: a hint of fluff

Word count: 1.2k

Notes: Still ongoing and probably going to be much longer than I had planned. I moved the fact that the reader is a bit older than our beloved hero over to the "Hawks x fem!Reader" part, so I finally stop repeating myself in the notes 🙈

Prologue * Chapter 1 * Chapter 2 * Chapter 3 * Chapter 4 * Chapter 5 * Chapter 6 * Chapter 7 * Chapter 8 * Chapter 9 * Chapter 10

🖤❤️🖤❤️🖤

The hero reluctantly let go of your hand. "Well, I should probably be on my way by now. Thanks for the coffee," he winked as he got up from your sofa. "We should do that again sometime soon." You nodded in agreement. "I'd love to."

A gentle expression adorned your features as you accompanied him to the door of your apartment. "Thanks, y/n, for havin' me," he said, voice soft, as he slipped into his boots. "See you at work tomorrow." Instead of taking the stairs, Hawks leaped right from the railing of the outdoor hallway. Spreading his wings, he took off into the by now darkening sky. It was hard to take your eyes off of him, considering how stunningly beautiful he looked with those crimson feathers on his back that carried him so effortlessly through the air.

~*~

Once Hawks was absolutely sure that he was out of your sight, he landed on top of a random skyscraper nearby. Standing there, he stared down at his gloved hand that had just held yours a few minutes ago, a rare smile crossing his face, one that made his eyes gleam with joy.

~*~

You had just entered Hawks' office, papers regarding an arrest that had occurred during his recent patrol which he had finished about half an hour ago in your hands, when the ringing sound of the elevator made you turn around. Through the open door of his office, Hawks and you watched as the doors of the elevator slid open, and both of the breathless and sweaty sidekicks stepped into the common area of the agency. They mumbled something about Hawks being way too fast for them to ever keep up as they greeted you and walked over to the fridge to grab a bottle of water. You honestly felt a little bad for them, but, in the end, it's how the three of them stayed most effective. The blonde pro hero usually took care of whatever came their way, and his sidekicks would take care of the aftermath. But this also meant that they'd be the last to arrive back at the office, exhausted and worn out, every single time.

The phone on your desk rang, and you handed Hawks the papers in a hurry to rush over and pick up the phone. "Thank you for calling the agency of pro hero Hawks! This is secretary l/n y/n speaking. How may I help you today?" The person on the other end of the line identified herself as the woman from the Hero Public Safety Commission that you'd met for the first time during your interview months ago. "We'd like to inform you, that we are about to release the newly calculated rankings of Japan's Billboard Charts publicly," you pushed the speaker button, so that everyone could listen in, "and give you a heads up on Hawks entering the top 10!" Hawks' face appeared in the doorframe. He looked at you, stunned. "Those are fantastic news! Thanks for letting us know!" You bid the lady goodbye and ended the call. When you looked back up from the phone, ready to speak up and congratulate your boss, Hawks had already disconnected two feathers from his wings, shoving his sidekicks back over to the elevator. "What are you -" one began, but was startled into silence, when a third small feather shot past his head to push the button next to the doors. Hawks put his arm around your shoulder, urging you to walk alongside him to join the other guys at the elevator. Your questioning look made him grin. "I'm gonna treat ya'll for lunch. I mean, we did it! I couldn't do all of this without your support!"

His sidekicks groaned as they were shoved into the small cabin of the elevator by the feathers as soon as the doors had opened. Now they not only had to leave the agency again, but they also had to share the small space in the elevator with Hawks at the same time, his wings that had just claimed the few stray feathers back, taking up way too much space in there. There was a reason behind him usually using the windows to enter and leave the agency.

~*~

Hawks brought you to Yoritomi Midori, a nice little restaurant on the more traditional side with fantastic food he'd recently discovered during one of his patrols, as he'd told you during the short walk over. A waitress greeted you enthusiastically and led you to a secluded area with a table next to a huge window. The four of you sat down and ordered different types of food so that you could share the individual dishes between each other.

While all of you were waiting for your food, Hawks and the guys talked about their patrol earlier. After a while, the noises blended in as you took a moment to enjoy the view you had over the buzzing city beneath. It was always nice to watch people go about their day while knowing they were safe, thanks to the heroes' hard work. You only registered that Hawks was talking to you when he'd leaned over the table to catch your attention. "I should take you on a flight sometime if you enjoy watching people from above," Hawks chuckled as he watched you staring out of the window in awe. "That'd be nice," you sighed, lost in thought. None of you saw the amused look the other two exchanged.

~*~

Halfway through your meal, you could hear Hawks' mobile go off inside of his jacket. "Excuse me," he said, fishing the phone out of his pocket and answering the call. A moment of silence followed. "Alright, we'll be there in 5 minutes," he ended the call and sighed. "What's wrong?" You looked at him over the table, leaning your head sideways. "Several people are held hostage in a supermarket," he said, nodding at his sidekicks to signal them that they'd have to tag along. You could see why he had told you during your little encounter a few weeks prior that the workload was overwhelming sometimes. "Sorry, y/n, see you later at the agency."

"Stay safe, everyone," you sent them off just like you had done many times before. Looking out of the window again, you saw Hawks flying ahead at his trademark speed, his sidekicks hastily running behind him. You shook your head in disbelief as you, again, felt a tiny bit sorry for these two guys.

~*~

You ended up asking the waitress to send an invoice to your agency and bring you a few plastic containers, so you could pack all the leftovers for the three heroes that had left to save the day once more, to which she happily obliged. You could definitely see why Hawks liked it here. The food indeed was fantastic and the waitresses were nothing but helpful and kind.

Hi, There's been a lot going on in my love life right now and I would be really pleased if someone could give me some advice</3

I'm queer; a sexuality that is still questioning their sexuality. Right now I feel hella shitty about myself.I'm a girl and am in love with a girl, Let's call her Amora, I have known this girl since I was in Grade 1 until I left to live in Japan because of some personal problem but that's not the point. So I left at the start of 3rd grade and went to another school then at the beginning of 4th grade I left for Japan, Of course, me being too young and all was too young to have a phone so we didn't- no, couldn't keep in touch. I couldn't contact her anyway since I lived in a dormitory and had a for kid's phone(only for calling, taking pictures, and texting) I eventually only remember some memories with her and some parts of features of her even forgetting her name. After the end of 5th grade, I came back. Long story short I repeated half of 5th grade for fun because when I started 6th grade was still far away, yk like the school year ends differently in different places. I came back from the countryside because again of personal reasons, I went to the city-my hometown- and decided to go back to the same school. My hair was so short that people could mistake me for a boy so people thought I was transgender first lol, In the first period a girl came up to me and asked if I knew Amora. I started remembering her name again so I said yes. Turns out she was Amora, We were pretty surprised but hung out like besties again anyway. After several years I developed a crush on her, first I was like "Nahhh, this happens a lot when I find someone attractive" but after several months I realized It was serious. And I MEAN It but I had only had two crushes in my life including her, After a few months she revealed she was going to America. My heart was like BROKEN broken, I moved a lot and met new people but when she left I had never felt THIS empty before. Before she left I confessed through text but I felt pathetic for confessing through text so I met up with her at an animal cafe and confessed face to face. She said yes but the thing is I could tell, she doesn't like me the way I love her. Of course, I was a coward and never asked but I think she was going with the flow and was desperate for love. After she left we did a long-distance relationship and still is but when we played games with her she always had some friends from America and was flirting with them. Guys, Do NOT get the wrong idea. We always do that when we were besties since it's like one of our friendly ways to show how much we care for each other as a friend. I wake up until 12 or 2 am in the midnight in school days to talk to her but she never really made an effort. I mean what could I expect? I knew it anyway but I really did had my hopes up high.Now this is where it starts to get really messy.I have this guy that I have known since 5th grade and he IS really nice, we bonded from liking AnimeXD. First, he was so cold and I kept up the conversation but he after a while opened up:}. I don't know when or how it happened but we then started getting really close as in we were flirting FLIRTING with each other. I started developing feelings for him because of his boldness and determination to date me. The worst part is he doesn't even KNOW I'm in a relationship, heheh I know I'm REAL shitty!! We act like we are dating already like I call him love and he calls me darling. Even with Amora I only call her BBG as a joke but I also call her Amor too. Me and ML never talked about our relationship but he's in college and is 3 years older than me. Around in 3-2 months, Amora is coming back and since you know... she does not like me like the way I love her she may break up with me and I'm honestly so FUCKING scared. Not only that but my relationship with ML?? HELLO?? What should I do? I really feel like they both deserve better and I should just dig up a hole and stay in there for eternity. I really like them both but they don't know each other...

I'm going to update about this Tragic love story soon when Amora comes back so please give me advice guys, you can even attack me if you want since I really need a reality check.

The Wicked + The Divine: Fandemonium by Kieron Gillen. Art by Jamie McKelvie. Coloured by Matt Wilson. Lettering by Clayton Cowles.

Series: The Wicked + The Divine, #2 Read time: 1 Day Rating: 4/5

The quote: "This is fandom. Not many angry white guys in fandom." — Cassandra

I'm coming back to this series because I'm hitting a reading slump and I find graphic novels help pull me out. I'm going to start with the ending. This volume ends in such an odd place usually when I read I read one then review it before moving on. This time I couldn't I needed to know what came next. I needed answers to the questions that are posed by the ending. Because there are many. Fandemonium picks up a month after The Faust Act and the death of Luci. Laura is still our eyes to the world, still trying to unravel the mysteries around Luci's death. She is hurting and confused and possibly a little in love with the memory of Luci. Laura has a rather patronising nickname that is only half explained, 'Prometheus' (another myth reference).

Very early on she meets a character that we had references to in The Faust Act but never met the stunning Inanna. Inanna is not like the others that we've met, he's more trusting and sweet, a bit of a mix between Amaterasu and Minerva. Inanna looks fantastic, his whole deal is wonderful and he's a gender-bend of his original form. His gift is divination, I quite like the way his magic is presented in a pinky/purple sparkle. His outfits are so audacious so becoming of his stage persona which we also get to see. Interestingly Inanna recognises Laura from before, before his godhood, they have a connection and I really like their dynamic. Inanna introduces Laura and the reader to the 11th god, Dionysus. Dionysus I really like. His eyes are pitch black and he seemingly has a laurel crown tattooed on his head. His whole style is much more relaxed than all the others, pressed pants and a yolo tee, fully suiting his mythological duties. I really like how he treats Laura. He honours her, allows her to experience his environment within her limits and helps her when she's done. As a side note... Minerva has one of the cutest nicknames from Baal, Baal who is particularly of her, he calls her Mini. She's so small and young, you have to remember reading this that Mini is only 12 and will be dead before she is 15.

I do want to comment on the art for a second. There is so much effort put into the speech bubbles. Woden's speech bubbles have always suited his presentation, that Tron like appearance with greens matches his bubbles. But the same effort is shown clearly in Dionysus and Inanna's. Dionysus runs a rave (like all the time) his is a black background with fluoro pink and white writing. Inanna's is fully complementary to his standard outfit, a dark almost lavender background with white writing. Both the bubble styles suit the characters. Dionysus comes across as a bit perpetually wired and Inanna is one of the calmer of the 12. On Dionysus and that rave... that is such well-done artwork there. All mad electro colours and sharp cuts. We see it through Laura's eyes but all the major players' bar a few are there. We see people interacting on different levels. I just appreciate the different style for what is a very out-there moment, especially for our main character.

By the end of Fandemonium, we've met all 12 of the gods on the wheel. As the gods die or as their situations change their icons change, death turns them into a skull. Going clockwise around the wheel.

Amaterasu — Japan goddess of the sun and the universe; the mythical ancestress of the Imperial House of Japan

Lucifer — Christianty the devil, a fallen angel.

Sakhmet (aka Sekhmet) — Egyptian a warrior goddess as well as goddess of healing

Baphomet — a god worshipped by the Knights Templar. He's a bit of a black sheep as a deity, yes it means something, yes, his existence in the Pantheon is eventually explained.

Minerva — Roman goddess of poetry, medicine, strategic warfare, commerce, weaving, the crafts, wisdom, courage, inspiration, victory, war, law, civilization, bravery, heroism, protection, city state, family, justice, mathematics, science, technology, strength, strategy, the arts, and skill

Woden (aka Odin) — Norse god of wisdom, poetry, death, divination, and magic

Morrigan — Celtic goddess of death and battle. A trio of sisters who appeared as a crow, she was the keeper of fate and purveyor of prophecy.

Dionysus — Greek god of the vine, grape-harvest, wine-making, wine, fertility, ritual madness, religious ecstasy, theatre

Inanna (aka Ishtar) — Mesopotamian goddess of sex, love, war, justice, and political power.

Tara — Hinduism and Buddism goddesses representing the fundamental female aspect of the universe, which gives birth to warmth, compassion and relief from bad karma as experienced by ordinary beings in cyclic existence (samsara).

Baal — Canaanite god of fertility, weather, rain, wind, lightning, seasons, war, sailors

Urðr — Norse one of the Nord the goddesses responsible for shaping the course of human destinies. The three Norns represent the past (Urðr), future (Skuld) and present (Verðandi). And lastly not part of the wheel but important...

Ananke — the Greek personification of inevitability, compulsion and necessity

𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐞 | 𝐌𝐒𝐁𝐘 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧 | 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐤𝐲𝐮𝐮 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧

Part 2 | Part 1 (Here!)

Featuring the older guys, finally! If I did calculate correctly, Meian should be born in 1989, Tomas was born in 1991, and Inunaki in 1992.

So yeah, keep that in mind.

Pairing: Meian Shugo, Inunaki Shion, Adriah Tomas x fem reader! (she/her)

Genre (s): romance, fluff

Warning (s): all of them are either engaged or married!

Enjoy!

Meian Shugo

Recently, you and Meian have moved into your new house after months of house-searching and renovations.

You have been engaged to him for about two years and were slowly planning your wedding, despite your parents' nagging.

Meian absolutely adores you, and his fans are often in awe about how much in love with you.

You two needed to pick up some stuff from Costco, so you two hop onto your car and drives off to the nearest Costco.

It was hard not to lose you in the crowd since the number of times that he lost you in Costco before was quite the amount.

His arm never left your waist as you two go through the list.

When you two are done with the shopping and load all the stuff into the boot.

You decided to mess with him while he went and push the trolley back.

Meian stood in shock as he watched the dark blue SUV driving out of the parking lot with your car plate. Did his own fiancé just leave him at the store? And without his wallet too?

He immediately called you, and you almost burst out laughing even before answering his call.

"Babe! You just left me at the store! Without my wallet too!" You can hear the sheer panic through his voice.

"Huh? Oh my god! I left you at the store? I'm so sorry, baby!" He was flabbergasted by your genuine response. So you did leave him by the store by accident, that was what he thought.

"I'll pick you up! Stay there!" You ended the call before bursting out in fits of giggles.

You were outside a boba shop, with his card, buying drinks for you two, so when you go back to pick him up, he would not be so upset with you.

While waiting for you, he got a message about his card getting charged at a boba shop.

Now, he is getting suspicious about whether did you really just leave him at the store by mistake or just to get boba?

When your car pulls up to the pick-up stand, his cheeks were flushed with embarrassment, and he quickly got into the car.

"Babe, that was not nice. How could you just leave me at the store?" He frowns, and you leaned forward to kiss his lips.

"It was funny! But I won't do it again, I promise!" You giggled and drives out of the parking lot.

"Yeah, that's what you always say. You even bought boba using my card." Meian complains and pokes the straws into both of the drinks.

"That was for last time. You left me at the stadium too." Ah, you were just getting even at him from last time.

"Fine. But, don't pull this prank again." He warned you but were you going to listen to him?

Nope.

Inunaki Shion

You two are destined to be together.

Both of you are well-known for teasing your teammates and being one of the best liberos in the nation.

You played professionally in the States, Russia and then returning back to play in Japan.

Two of you recently have gotten married in a private ceremony with your close friends and family.

Living together was fun, and pranks are a regular part of your daily life.

Today, you two were heading the stores to stock up the fridge, and you offered to drive, and he was grateful for that, not knowing what you were about to do later.

It was a quick trip since you two were pretty quick on your feet, and the queue was short.

Then you two put the stuff in the boot of the car.

He told you to drive to the entrance as he went to return the trolley.

You totally did not do that.

You drove past him and out of the store.

Inunaki stared at the passing car, gaping at it with a flabbergasted expression.

You did not just do that.

He immediately called you.

"HONEY! WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE ME AT THE STORE?!" He screams into his phone, garnering a few nasty looks from the other older ladies shopping there.

You hold your laughter in and calm yourself down.

"I accidentally left you! I'm sorry! I'm coming to get you!" You laughed, and he continues to whines about how you were going to regret this prank.

When you pulled up in front of him, his cheeks were flushed, and he rushed towards the car.

"Oh my god, I'm so embarrassed! How can you do that? I trusted you! No cuddles for a week!" He declared, and you raised a brow at him.

A week without cuddles? Will he survive without you?

"Babe, are you sure you can survive without cuddles? I'll be away next week for my games." Inunaki took offence in that, and now he is determined to prove to you that he can survive without cuddles.

How dare you underestimate him?

---

You stare at him, and he stares back at you.

"What are you doing? That's my shirt." You rolled your eyes at him.

"Shion, you are wearing my pyjamas pants. I need it tomorrow!" He narrowed his eyes at you.

Then you two got into bed, and you turned your back on him, cuddling your bolster. He tried to hide his pained expression, but he was suffering indeed.

His wife is just beside him, and yet he can't cuddle her because of his own words.

You could feel his sad puppy eyes on your back, and then he tugs on your shirt.

"Okay, fine. I can't sleep without cuddling. Can we cuddle? You're leaving for a week, and I need my fill for cuddles before you leave."

Hearing that, you kicked the bolster off the bed and got into his arms. He wrapped his arms around you and pulls you closer to him. You press your cheeks against him and lets out a satisfied sigh.

Just as you were about to fall asleep, he whispered into your ears.

"I do not forgive you about today's prank. Watch your back, honey."

No one gets away with pranking Inunaki Shion, NO ONE.

Adriah Tomas

You two have been married for two years and now, with a baby on the way.

After months of waiting, you two finally can move out of your parents' house and into your new house.

And of course, you two have to stop by the grocery store to pick up the essentials and to stock up the fridge too.

He wanted you to stay at home, but you don't want to be alone at home, so he let you tag along with him.

Everyone at the grocery store was giving you two the stares because they thought you were younger than him, and ya know...

But you hold onto his hand, discreetly showing off your ring on your ring finger.

This older lady was judging you two, and you couldn't take it.

You walked up to her with your growing bump, pulling Adriah along with you.

You told her straight up that he is not older than you, you are two years older than him, and you two got married before you were pregnant.

And after that, you two went on to do your things.

When you two were done, he puts all the purchase in the boot while you got into the driver's seat.

"Honey, I'll push the trolley back. Can you drive to the front to wait for me?" You nod your head, and he went and push the trolley back.

You reversed the car out of the lot and was about to drive to the front, then you were hit with a sudden craving for taiyaki. Instead of driving to the front, you head for the exit and drove to the nearest taiyaki shop.

Adriah just stood there, watching you drive out of the parking without him.

He called your phone, and it was connected to the Bluetooth of the car.

"Babe! You left me at the store! Where are you now?" He asked, and you realised that you just left your husband at the store.

"Oh...I was craving for some taiyaki, so I went and get some. Don't worry, I'll come and get you after I buy them." You reassured him.

"Okay, drive safely. I'll wait here." He ends the call.

So he ended up waiting at the store and met a couple of his fans. They were all curious about why he was waiting by himself, and then he told them about how your sudden craving for taiyaki left him stranded at the store.

After waiting for about 15 minutes, you finally came back to pick him up.

You two switched sides, so he can drive, and you can comfortably enjoy your taiyaki.

"I bought yours too! So we all get a share too!" You pass him one of the taiyaki, and you all enjoyed the taiyaki together on your drive home.

---

Later, the tag 'taiyaki' and 'adriah' started trending on Twitter, with his photo of you nibbling on the taiyaki while watching Disney.

Hehehe, I don't know why I pictured them either being engaged or already married. But I hope you guys enjoyed it! Thank you for reading!

Stay safe and healthy!

With love,

Rosalie🍓

KNB Imagine - Kagami unexpectedly leaves for America for 6 months (Part 4)

a/n: heeeeey everyone!! Sorry I didn't get to finish Part 4 last night! I got sleepy and crashed after 1:00am hahah but here it is!!! I'm so happy with this imagine, I didn't think it would be so much fun to read and I also didn't think people would actually read it HAHA I'm definitely going to be doing this more, maybe with other KNB characters 🤗 I've rewatched KNB about 4-5 times at this point now and every time I watch I fall for someone new 😅 but honestly I feel like my one and only is Kagami, idk how to explain it but he's seems to be the type of guy that I would ACTUALLLYYY like and fall for irl!! Lol so here we goooo Part 4

All the lights flicker on but you can't seem to move your legs. You stay on the ground, kneeling while heavily breathing. You're too nervous to even look up

"Y/n, get up from there. Why are you still on the floor?" Kagami says

You're still speechless, trying to catch your breath. It was Kagami... he's here, he's back in Japan and you can't even look at him

"Y/n, please. Please stand up." Kagami offers his hand to help you but you decline the help and stand up yourself

You're standing in front of Kagami but you can't bare to look up at him, so instead you focus on his feet

The both of you stand there in silence for a moment before you can just barely whisper

"What are you doing here...?"

Kagami explains that he forgot about the time difference (go figures, remember what happened on the first day of Winter Cup?) and it wasn't until he was just about to land that he realized he was arriving today and not tomorrow

He sighs, "That probably means Kuroko and the guys told you the wrong time too.."

He finally walks away, going to the kitchen. Barely realizing that you cleaned up and put everything in its place

You started to feel the anger building up inside you. It's been 6 months and Kagami is acting as if he hadn't just ghosted you, his GIRLFRIEND, for the past 4 months

You finally look up and see your boyfriend for this first time in what seemed like forever and damn, he was just as beautiful and gorgeous as you remember

But something was missing

The genuine joy and happiness in his eyes, where'd that go?

You start crying, but the anger has also taken over. You finally muster out some words but they were much louder than you had anticipated

"Are you fucking serious, Taiga?!" Kagami's head shoots up, you never called him by his first name unless he was in trouble, you were mad, being serious, or needed him to seriously listen

"It's been 4 months! It's been 4 months since you last talked to me and you can't even muster up some sorry excuse as to why?! Up until now, no one knows why you even left Japan in the first place!!"

Kagami tries approaching you, attempting to grab your hands to calm you down but you can't even bare his gentle touch right now

You swat his hands away. "No, don't touch me, you IDIOT!" Kagami takes a step back and bows his head in shame

Your anger starts speaking for you

You step forward and back hand Kagami in the face. He looks up, shocked, but lowers his head again, knowing he well deserved that

His absence of any kind of reaction really starts bothering you, does he not feel any remorse?

You step forward again and continue slapping him and banging your fists into his chest, he doesn't stop you

"I waited for you, every single day!" You scream at him, in between punches to his chest. "But you just picked up your entire life here and left, and you couldn't even tell anyone why!"

You're nearly screaming at the top of your lungs now, and Kagami is doing his best to stop you from further lashing out

But to his expense, he's barely trying

"You didn't even give me a reason why you were leaving! I'm your girlfriend, Taiga. I deserved better!" You finally screamed, pushing him away

Kagami just softly whispers "I know, I know" while you catch your breath. Now he's the one who can't look at you

"You son of a bitch..." you trail off before the tears finally take over and you're choking on your own breath

Not being able to talk anymore, you grab your things and run out the door

...

You find a quiet spot next to a bus stop to sit down and try to calm down

Your heart is still racing and your eyes are still wet from tears. It's difficult for you to process what's happening

"Kagami is here... he's back.." is all you can think to yourself

After a bit, you can hear Kagami approaching you. You try not to let him see your tear stained eyes. You quickly dry them again just as he reaches your side

He hands you a can of coffee from the vending machine, you take it but don't open it

Kagami sighs, opens his can and takes a sip before sitting beside you

"Y/n.. I know I don't deserve it, but please give me a chance to explain.."

You open the can and take several sips, you glimpse over at your boyfriend and he's fiddling with his fingers

He looks up at you and you quickly look away, taking another sip from your can

He sighs again. "I had to leave because Dad got sick.."

All your walls suddenly fall apart. Just hearing those words, your anger instantly disappears

For awhile now, it's always just been Kagami and his Dad. They told each other everything and you knew how close they were and how important his Dad was to him

Your posture softens and you turn to Kagami, waiting for his explanation

He explains that his Dad had actually been really sick for a while now, but he hid it from Kagami

He didn't want Kagami to worry or to stray away from his dreams here in Japan. His Dad was so happy to hear how well Kagami was doing in Japan, making friends and playing basketball

But most importantly, his Dad was overjoyed that Kagami had met you. Someone who was able to ground him and take care of him

Kagami was forced to grow up too early, and his Dad would often blame himself for that. That's why he hid his sickness from his son, he didn't want Kagami to pick up and leave everything he had built

It wasn't until Kagami's Dad was finally hospitalized due to his sickness

He flew into America as soon as he heard, taking everything and anything that he could easily grab (which explains why his apartment was left in ruins, he literally got up and left)

He pauses, getting emotional and slightly overwhelmed

You obviously don't want to make it about you, your boyfriend is hurting and you can clearly see that. He might not realize it but you were always really good at seeing when Kagami needed you

"I didn't want to tell you because.. well-" Kagami starts choking on his words. You wrap an arm around him and rub his back as he falls apart

Once he's calmed down, he continues. "You've always been so strong and so independent. And I- I felt like I was always depending on you... and you constantly make sacrifices for me so I.. I just wanted to handle something by myself for once.."

You see the look in his eyes, it's been a while since you've seen Kagami this vulnerable, if ever

"I remember you telling me about when your Dad got sick, and I thought you handled it so gracefully and so maturely, and you were a child then! You were only 15 when it all happened and you were amazing..."

"And I'm this grown ass man and I couldn't even handle it... I didn't tell you because I didn't want to have to put you through that again with my Dad. So I thought it would just be better if I didn't tell you..."

You can sense the shame in your boyfriend's voice. But more importantly, you can hear how desperate he is for help. He needs you...

You finally wrap both your arms around him and give him a hug

"I had to take over Dad's company for a couple months, that's why I couldn't message or call you. And I know it's a lame ass excuse and nothing will ever fix it but- I just needed to feel like I was doing something for our future..."

You let go and give Kagami a confused look. Our future?

"Wait.. what do you mean?" You finally say

"Y/n, there's no doubt about it that you are going far in life. You're smart and beautiful and intelligent and have the kindest and biggest heart. You have so much to offer in this world, but me? The only thing I'm good at is basketball..."

You shake your head, if only this idiot knew how great he really was

Kagami goes on to explain that he drowned himself in training for his Dad's company as a product of his insecurity

Of course, his Plan A was to go on and play professional basketball but just like any other athlete, we're only human and there would come a day that his body wouldn't be able to handle it anymore

He didn't want to retire from basketball one day and have nothing else to offer

So he took advantage of temporarily taking over his Dad's company and used it as training for the future. He made sure he knew how to run that company, inside and out

Your heart is wide open, the anger and pain from the last several months have suddenly vanished

So this is what Kuroko was talking about... (BUT WAIT, how did Kuroko know but you didn't?!)

You gently place your hands on the side of Kagami's face and bring your foreheads together, a couple tears fall from his eyes

You take a deep breath in, cherishing the precious moment of finally having your boyfriend back

Kagami wraps his arms around you, burying his face into the nape of your neck

"I'm so sorry.." he whispers. "Please forgive me y/n, I know I've caused you so much pain... you must hate me.."

You stroke the back of his head and rub his back, instantly calming him down

"I never hated you, baby... I was just sad, I thought you had lost your way..."

Kagami squeezes you tighter, completely engulfing both of you in each other's bodies as you place a gentle kiss on his temple

"C'mon, let's go home."

a/n cont'd: GUYSSSS I'M CRYING 😭😭 this was so long but hopefully SO WORTH IT!! I hope you guys enjoyed haha I'm really proud of this so I hope you like it! Definitely stay tuned in the future for more imagines and headcanons (hopefully not as long 😅) thank you all for reading!! @cocobutterbaby

Shell City: a Bay! Turtles Fanfic

a/n: I think this story is going to be as good as it gets. I hope you all enjoy this💚💚💚💚

Summary: The turtles will have to hide their ninja identities when everyone in New York City has been turned into mutant turtles like them.

◇》TMNT: Shell City《◇

It's been almost 1 year since anyone had seen the Shredder. He disappeared along with Krang. That didn't stop the turtles from keeping their eyes peeled for any signs of him or the Foot Clan making a move, though. The Foot had been quiet, too. Their quietness was suspicious.

To top it off, someone from Tokyo, Japan had bought a building and moved to the NYC to start a business there, too. His name was Oroku Saki. Though he resembled The Shredder, Donnie's and April's research shown that he wasn't; they hacked into the NYPD's database to look at Shredder's files and found that there was no DNA matches between him and Oroku Saki. After about a few months of little to no activity everyone in New York City thought that the Foot had left New York for good. Or so they thought….

♤

Karai had been contacted by Shredder after he managed to escape from Krang for a moment. She was now leading the Foot Clan, and following the plans of the Shredder dumped a man-made mutagen in the city's water. During a battle with the turtles recently, they used very tiny robots disguised as darts and managed to get a sample of the ninja turtle's DNA to replicate and use in their plan.

♤

Mikey turned on the TV expecting to see April. Instead what he saw surprised him. "Woah! What happened to April?"

The other brothers and Splinter rushed to the living room and watched what was happening on screen hearing Mikey's shocked tone. "April?" Donnie was the first to say a word. He too saw what Mikey meant. There was a slimmer mutant turtle humanoid, similar to him and his brothers, with April's voice. "How…?" he questioned, his mind spinning with possibilities.

In the background there was a stampede of mutant turtles screaming and running around. There was chaos happening on screen and still April looked like she was trying to stay calm while standing amidst it all. She stared into the camera.

"This is April O'Niel, reporting live for Channel 6 News, and as you can see… I'm a turtle… and so is everyone in New York City. No one knows for sure how it happened, but we'll keep you up to date on this catastrophe-" The television was turned off. Splinter and the turtles looked at each other, staying silent.

Leo broke the silence. "We've got to find out exactly how this happened," he firmly commanded.

"Seriously, who else thought April looked hot as a turtle?" Mikey questioned. Raph gave him a slap behind the head. "Ow, man!"

"Be serious for once, Mikey," Raph said, feeling annoyed.

"You need to be careful, my sons. If the Foot is behind this, they can easily spot you in a crowd. You must blend in with your surroundings."

As Master Splinter had taught them, a ninja is a master of himself and his environment. With that being said, the turtles found backpacks big enough to carry their weapons and masks in. They felt weird, naked, without wearing their signature masks. However if they were to go outside, they would have to do so so that the Foot wouldn't be able to recognize them and follow them back to the lair.

Making sure that they could pass as being a 'turtlefied citizen', the terrapins crawled out of one of their secret subway passages to the surface. Seeing the mayhem for themselves was mindblowing. They may have seen the city almost destroyed for the past few years since becoming official heroes of this city, but it still surprised them everytime.

Leo spoke up to remind everyone what the plan was. "Alright, guys, let's ask around and see if we can find any clues. We'll meet back here before sundown and call April, see if she knows anything." He was about to let his brothers go until he remembered that it'd be strange to have fully calm citizens among the frantic ones. "Don't say or do anything stupid that would jeopardize our identities. And don't be too calm... or too energized..." he said, looking at Mikey.

His younger brothers spread out and started talking to anyone that would be willing. The leader found a woman beside a car, holding her arms to herself, rocking back and forth, crying. "Excuse me." He waited for the newly turned female turtle to look up at him. "Can you tell me how you got mutated?"

"I went about my day, as usual." She sniffed. "You know, getting up, going to work, and then coming home to eat, bathe, and then I went to sleep. But in the middle of the night I felt strange, and then I was… this…" she explained as she showed her reptilian skin and shell.

"Don't worry, ma'am, I'm sure there'll be a cure soon," he reassured her. For sure, he knew Donnie was going to make a cure. One way or another there was going to be a way to turn everyone back into humans, and find out who was responsible for all of this.

This went on for most of the day, and everyone said the same thing, according to the turtles. Donnie had a hypothesis. The one thing he found similar between everyone he talked to was something to do with water. To prove that, he was going to gather a sample of the city's water.

Later on, Leo called April to the lair. Casey and Vern, turned turtle also, tagged along, wanting to know what was going on and what the gang planned to do.

"April, are you alright?" Splinter asked.

"I'm okay. I know everything's going to work out," she replied, smiling back at him, knowing that his sons will pull through this.

"And I'm hoping you're doing well, Mr. Fenwick and Mr. Jones?"

"Yeah," they both said in unison.

"You guys look so… different," April said, indicating the turtles' maskless faces.

"So do you, Angelcakes. You don't look too bad. You could pass as one of us."

"Thanks." She smiled at Mikey for the compliment. "So did you guys find out anything?"

"We found out that everyone had been infected around the same time last night," Leo told her.

"And I think it's because of the water being contaminated by mutagen very similar to the one in our blood," Donnie added. "I already examined our DNA, and I'm waiting for the water sample I gathered to separate and filter it, and then compare it to our mutagenic DNA."

"If the mutagen is similar to your DNA, how did someone get a hold of it?" Casey asked.

"You got me." Raph said, shrugging his shoulders.

"And why mutant turtles? Why not any other animals in the animal kingdom? Uhm, no offense," Vern added.

Mikey joked,"None taken, 'cuz we look better, and more awesome."

"Whatever the reason, we need to figure out who done this," Leo said. He already had a hunch that it was the Foot Clan, but he couldn't think of anything that could connect to the current situation. He always made sure that he or his brothers left nothing behind.

♤

A few days later, Oroku Saki and his team of scientists had been working with TCRI non stop and had found the cure to the mutation. On the television, he wasn't a mutant turtle but a human. He showed footage of him being a turtle so that no one would accuse him of anything. He announced that since there were so many affected that the antigen would be free and handed out at TCRI. When the question came up of how long it would take for it to take effect, he replied that it would take up to 24 hours.

"I don't beileve him. And I don't trust him," April said as she watched with the gang. "He looks too much like The Shredder." Seeing that someone found a cure this quickly seemed fishy to everyone. As they all watched the TV, seeing Oroku Saki's face still irked them all.

Raph growled irritably. "I know this guy looks like Shredder, but how can he not be when he looks like him?" he questioned, his brain trying to make sense of all of this, as was everyone else.

Donnie replied,"It could just be a coincedence, but that doesn't take him off the suspect list, though."

"Let your minds not be troubled, my sons. Sometimes, things are not always what they seem to be," Master Splinter said.

Leo added,"Master Splinter's right, we can't lose sight of the real objective here. We need to stop this, regardless of who is who." He stood up from his seat. "And right now, we need to investigate this 'antigen'."

Donnie volunteered to get the sample of the antidote. It took an hour at least to get through the line. Still in disguise as a 'turtlfied citizen', he went to TCRI to ask for the cure. He was given a small tube of orange liquid. He listened to the instructions that the scientist gave him, barely paying any attention to the babble and was already analyzing this substance with his mind.

When he made it back to the lair he started working on finding out what was in the antigen in his lab. He had already found out that everyone was mutated with their DNA by testing April, Casey, and Vern. The only thing he could think of of someone having their DNA was the Foot Clan they had fought days before when he thought that they were being tranquilized and captured again.

After a long night, of nothing but pots of coffee and an armful of boxes of poptart icing (he was scolded for leaving just the poptarts), Donnie had found that there was tiny nanorobots in the antigen, and that the antigen was just colored water. He then found out that these microscopic robots sent out signals similar to brain waves, something related to mind control.

"Oroku Saki is working with the Foot Clan, which could possibly mean that the Shredder is coming back," Donnie explained.

"Or he's already here..." Leo replied. "We need to gear up and move out," he commanded.

April, Casey, and Vern stayed at the lair with Splinter to work with Donnie's computer, while the turtles went out into the twilight to sneak into the Saki Enterprises building. They kept their weapons ready and tied their masks around their forearm, as suggested by Mikey to look cool on the battlefield.

As they made their way to the building, they were stopped by the turtleized citizens. They were throwing punches and performing moves that no ordinary human could do without years of training. They were being mind controlled.

"Guys, don't hurt them," Leo reminded them. "Lead them to Donnie." While the turtles punched and dodged, they led them to Donnie, in which he then used an end of his tech Bo-staff to stun them, knocking them out.

After getting through the waves of the mutated humans, the turtles made their way into Saki Enterprises. April told them what floor Oroku Saki was in and snuck past the Foot soldiers.

They kicked the door down and rushed into the room on the 28th floor. Their weapons were at the ready as they saw him hunched over a giant control panel. "It's over, Oroku Saki," Leo exclaimed.

"Or should we call you Shredder?" Raph added, tightening the grip on his sais.

"It doesn't matter. You'll soon meet your end, turtles."

Leo leads the attack. They fight, coming at Oroku one at at a time, and then when Leo's katana blade cut his cheek, there was a scrapping sound, like metal against metal. They noticed, nodding at each other in an unknown language. Mikey kicked him down and upon closer inspection Donnie says,"He's a robot."

"What?"

"Then who's controlling him?"

"I don't know, but if i can look inside it back to the lab, I can track the last known location of whoever is the one controlling this… Shredder bot."

"Dude, a robot, seriously?"

They go back to the lair and find out the location of where the controller was hiding: the Hamada loading dock, the place where the Foot Clan usually recieve their products. They then heard a woman's voice, probably Karai's… and Baxter Stockman's.

"Stockman?" He disappeared along with the Shredder and Krang a year ago, too. Something strange was going on. "Let's move out before they decide to hide."

♤

The turtles ran and jumped the rooftops to make it to their location and found Karai and Baxter Stockman in a computer room. Stockman was a mutated fly. "Ewww, dude, seriously?! A fly?!" Mikey exclaimed.

"A fly happened to be land on me when I was being experimented on." Stockman replied in a monotone voice, not wanting to relive that moment again.

"What's the plan this time?"

"Perhaps I should let my master tell you meddling turtles." Karai retorted with a grin on her face, using a remote control to turn on a monitor. On the screen was the face of Shredder himself.

"Shredder..."

"Turtles... You're lucky I'm not there, or I would've eradicated you myself."

The reason why Shredder mutated the people is because he saw what Krang was doing by taking other species DNA and mixing it with mutagen to make super soldiers to take over planets. He took this knowledge and contacted Karai to start experimenting, wanting to take over New York, and then eventually the world.

"There's no way we're going to let you hurt more inoccent people," Leo said.

"That's what you think. Karai, Stockman, kill them!"

"Yes, Master."

The screen went black. Karai drew out her sword and started to fight the leader, blade to blade. Meanwhile Donnie made his way to the computer module to try and stop the brain wave frequencies. Raph and Mikey blocked Stockman's path to the computer.

"Not so fast, buzz boy," Raph smirked.

"Fools, did you forget I can fly?" Stockman then started floating in the air, flying towards Donnie while laughing. Both turtles stared going after him.

"Get em Mikey!"

"Oh no you don't!" Mikey jumped and spun in the air, grabbing onto Stockman and dragged him down to the ground. Raph joined in and pinned him down. He then K.O.ed him, knowing that he'd feel that the next morning.

It didn't take long for Donnie to bug the system and shut the computer down. Now everyone wasn't being brain controlled. "I got it!" Donnie cried out excitedly.

"Good." Leo replied, giving his brother a smile that said 'Good job, well done'. He kicked Karai in the abdomen, sending her flying across the room, and hitting her backside against the wall. She fell with a groan of pain and passed out from the blow behind her head.

After getting rid of the mutagen that was made, Donnie started working on the real antigen. Donnie let April, Casey, and Vern take it and they morphed back into humans. April looked away and covered herself with a blanket that Leo provided.

"It works!"

"Now that we know, we need to make more and cure everyone." In no time, Donnie made more antigen for everyone in New York City. For extra measure, he poured some into then city's main water system.

The next day, April told everyone that the Foot Clan had contaminated the citys water with a toxic waste and that the cure that Oroku Saki made was a fake ( but she didn't tell everyone that the antigen had nanorobotic tech in it to take over everyones mind.) Everyone is cured. The turtles are now back into hiding.

"I'm gonna miss going out more, ya know?" Mikey asked as they watched April reporting live from Times Square. For the past few days it was fun going out and feeling like he was just like everyone else.

"We can, just stick to the shadows, like we've always done." Leo gently answered his younger brother, placing hand on his shoulder. Raph and Donnie joined in, giving their support to Mikey. They continued to watch April while Splinter stood in the background, smiling because he couldn't be more proud of his sons.

Good evening😬or morning or whateva :D I'm going to spoil you with a Endeavor request: Endeavor having sex with his affair and she gets pregnant but is too scared to tell him because of his past and when Endeavor finds out on accident he promises to be a good father and it turns out right :) like he plays with the baby all the time and cuddles it, super fluffy 😌

Good!.....night? It’s like 1:34 in the morning.... sooooo Good! morning! (8-24-2020) To you, you lovely person, spoiling me with such a great Endeavor Request 😌

I hope your day goes well as soon as I post this! Stay hydrated! 💦💙

💙💙❤️🖤❤️💙💙❤️🖤❤️💙💙

I couldn’t fight the tears as they started to sting along my water lines, I forced my eyes closed and tried to kick my lips, they tasted like poison and rubbed. I reached out for the countertop in-front of me. Finger shaking, just slightly as I grabbed the plastic in my hand. Three of four, say positive, the fourth didn’t give me an answer. How did this happen?!

“I know how this happen, in a very pleasurable way.....because I was being an idiot four months ago!” I scolded myself after asking my self the questions.

I swallowed and looked at my phone, it was new, Enji, bought it for me when I’d lost my old one off the roof of his car. I shuffled on my seat that were the steps to my tub. I took a deep breath, “I can’t tell him, I’ll have to leave him. I don’t want my child to go through the same things his children did.”

I stood up and started pacing the bathroom, “good plan good plan.” I lied to myself.

“Maybe I should tell him? I won’t be able to do it alone....” I stopped and looked at myself in the mirror, “No! What if.”

I felt the hot streaks running down the curves of my cheeks and jaw, but it didn’t register. I clenched my jaw and forced my eyes shut, I felt queasy, and the puking began. I stood up after kneeling for like ten minutes and rushed over to my legs mirror. I rose my hoodie, and it all made sense why I’d gained weight, if you looked hard enough, you could the bulge slowly not really, but just becoming visible, I looked bloated... maybe that’s why he never realized it.... also since it’s winter I’ve been using sweaters and hoodies much to Enji’s distaste. I laughed to myself before pouting, and placing both my hands on either side of my stomach, “I’m scared....” I swallowed the taste of fear, maybe puke, “I’ve never done this... I can’t call my parents... there not in Japan....” I fidgeted and pulled my shirt down, I heard the door bell and perked up, “Oh! My Noodles are here!”

I rushed to the door wallet in hand and ready to get my dood only to come face with Enji.

“Heeeeyyyyyy,” I poked my head out the door and looked around then poured and looked up at him, “You’re not the delivery guy.”

He gave me a look that clearly stated “Are you SERIOUS?”

“Right! You should come in before my pesky neighbor sees!” I pulled him in and looked around once more, my closest neighbor was actually about a quarter mile away, but that doesn’t matter.

“Soooooo,” I turned around and licked the door, “I didn’t expect you at all.” I smiled and fidgeted with my hands feeling sick.

“I’ve come to discuss this relationship.” His words were straight, I felt a fill run through my blood and bones, if he leaves.... what am I gonna do?

“Oh,” I nodded looked down, my voice was a whisper, “I guess say what you need.”

“I can’t keep having an affair, there are rumors rising already. My image can’t be ruined like this.”

I felt my heart pick up, my breathing felt struggled.

“I see,” I didn’t look up as I made myself take a breath feeling my heartbeat in my throat, “well, if this is it, I guess I should give back the jewelry, and other expensive gifts huh?”

“No, keep them, that’s not what I’m here for.” He shook his head eyes closed.

“Alright, is there anything else you need to say? Before you go?”

“I’m getting a divorce,” the words were like a punch to the stomach, I wasn’t the one being divorced but it definitely hit, I felt it rushing up. I rushed or my bathroom and stuffed the pregnancy tests into my hoodie pocket so Enji wouldn’t see them, I clung to the toilet shoving up the seat puked letting it all out. I was met with a tug at my hair, Enji was holding it back and fumbling with a black scrunches I’d left on my sink. He sighed as he rubbed my back, he kneeled beside me rubbing my back and handing me toilet tissue to wipe my mouth a bit that burned its wya through my nose. I took it and wiped my mouth away, I dry heaved a bit, and felt myself shaking, cold, so cold. Enji kept flushing the toilet until it was all gone, he helped me to sit on the toilet, “You’re sick.”

He sighed and closed his eyes, “Don’t move from here until I get back.”

I nodded and looked down, I let out a sigh and groaned, a divorce? He’s leaving Rei? Officially? I mean, it’s good cause this won’t be so scandalous anymore, but... it’s sudden.

I tried to stand by my thighs were shaky and weak. I paced my hands into hem and felt tears, I closed my eyes and let them fall, a new heat on my cheeks wiped them away, I looked to see Enji there, hands on my face, he could definitely crush my skull, his eyes looked sad, but his face was not showing that.

“I brought you water and some medicine to help with nausea. I don’t know what this is, but let’s get you to bed, you look tired, your cheeks and eyes are red and you look weak.” He didn’t let me answer as he gave me the medicine and stood up making his way to my room outside the bathroom and I could hear him moving the blankets.

Getting it my bed Enji told my to put my hand up, I did, he pulled my hoodie off leaving me in the tank top I wore underneath. Something fell but I don’t pay attention to what, but mostly because Enji was helping me sit, even if I didn’t want to. “You’ve already order food, I’ll wait here with you until gets here.”

He took my hand squeezed and I just nodded, the tears in my eyes, I didn’t even feel them, “So sweet.”

For a minute I forgot I was pregnant, until my phone gave a buzz, I looked ya it on the nightstand. I know the chime, it was for my period tracker, I’d neglected completely four times now. Enji didn’t read my phone simply handing it to me. I thanked him and swiped away the notification, “sleep.” He said and brought his free hand to brush my hair back, I craved his warm hand in this cold moment, “If you leave wake me up.” He nodded, and I sighed and started to shuffle in the blanket.

***

“(Y/n),” I was shook awake, I blinked a few times feeling hot in the blanket I sat and pushed it back, I stood up and just as I was about to answer, back in the bathroom.

“We should take you to a doctor.” I hugged and nodded, “yeeaaahhhh.”

“Do you have one?” He asked and looked at his phone.

“No sir.” I was honest.

I heard him sigh, “Take off that shirt,” I hear him walk away followed by some clattering. I pulled off my shirt and he brought back my hoodie, “Wear this, I’m taking you to a doctor.”

He left again and started to talk on the phone, I pouted and pulled on my hoodie after taking off my shirt, “bully, I didn’t even get my lunch.”

I walked spurns my house in the socks I just pulled on looking for my shoes, “where?” I dropped to my knees looking under the sofa, “are you?” I reached aliens and felt something.

“Shoes?” I asked and pulled out some old low sneakers that I used to wear.... once, when I tried to work out.

“It’ll work.” I shrugged and started to pull them on.

“Ready?” I answered back with “YES DADDY SIR IM READY!” I heard a heavy sigh and smiled pushing myself off the floor as he walked into the room, he held up a bag, my food.

“Get in the car.” He tossed me my keys, “No driving.” I nodded and rushed to my car and got in the passenger side and turned it on. I pulled on my seat belt and sat waiting, I huffed after literally two minutes passed.

I honked then smiled seeing Enji come into the garage, I got happy, I like car rides with Enji...kinda like a dog I guess.... he handed me the plastic bag and placed a lime soda in the cup holder, “Do NOT, open it until were on the road.” I nodded and waited, until we pulled out and took the turn.

I opened my bag and found the stir fry noddles is been craving all day, “Don’t way to much, if you puke again well have to stop and clean the car.” “Okay, got it.”

I started of eat and look out the window and indulge in the noodles. I stopped a quarter way in when I felt a shuffle in my abdomen. My food was hitting on an empty stomach, and it’s showing. I covered the food up and placed it back in the bag and tried to didn’t some soda. I finished the drink by the time we pulled up to a clinc.... a women’s clinic. I cringed at the sight. “Why here?” I asked.

“I thought you’d be more comfortable with a woman for your doctor.

“Okaaaayyyy.” I prepped myself to get out, I watched Enji get out with no hesitation, I still hesitated, until he came and opened my door offering a hand. I took it and was pulled back by my seatbelt. I laughed sheepishly and I clicked it before getting help again. We walked in and surprisingly empty, I guess the parking lot gave that away though. We walked in, Enji made me sit, he went and got the paper work from the secretary, and brought it back and I started to fill it out. I smiled as I gave back to him, and he got up and took it back. He told the nurse something and she nodded with a big smile. He nodded and came back to sit by my side. I felt nervous, and didn’t fight the bouncing of my leg, I shimmied closer to his side and leaned my head on his shoulder. A few minutes passed until they called. They took blood for vitamin checks, and muscle and bone stuff, urine for some tests, something about protein and I didn’t catch the rest. They told me to sit on the bed my doctor would be here soon. Then asked if I’d like Enji in the room or not, I nodded and said yes let him stay, I kNOW WHAT THIS IS.... maybe it won’t be so bad with someone else. A few more minutes and here she came, a short plump woman with bright eyes.

“I’m here, so tell me whats happening.” She said and didn’t even look at me, just read some papers.

“Well, I’ve been queasy, and I’ve been puking most of the day-“ I was wished by a hand on my back, “This will help you.” I watched Enji reach into his pocket and pull out a ziplock I cringed at the sight, the four tests I’d stuffed in my jacket.

The doctor took it and looked at them and laughed, “Well,” she smiled and clipped them to her board, “I’ll tell them to run the urine for a test.”

“Thank you.” Enji answered and she nodded then left.

“.......sooooooo, hows the weather up there?” I said not looking up at him. “Why didn’t you tell me?” He didn’t look at me, just ahead at the wall. I looked around, “I was scared, that maybe, you wouldn’t want it or you know....your past... that you might... you know.....” The sigh he let out was depressing, I tried to look at him. I was hurt, out of every fight I’ve ever seen him in, I felt like maybe, just maybe, this would be the lowest I’d ever see him. “I-“ “No, don’t say your sorry,” his stare still on the floor, “I don’t blame you.... for thinking those things, if you want to leave with this child then you can do so. I just want you to know these few things before you make a choice.”

I swallowed the lump in my throat, it’s weird because I’m not the one who just got emotionally wounded.

“I don’t deserve to be a father again, I know it, I understand the things I’ve done are not right. It can’t easily be forgiven. The things I’ve done can last over a life time, I’m working to fix all these things, I don’t want to hurt the one I love anymore, but I can’t stand the thought of hurting innocent people. I wanted to spend what’s left of my life with you, this is sudden, and you have the decision and freedom to decide what you think is best, but I promise you, this time, I will be the best man I can for you, and for this child. I don’t want to hurt anyone, I want to be the best I can and prove that I know what it’s like to be real father, to show I know what love really is. I won’t force you to make any decisions, and I won’t force my way into its life, I only want to do this, if you do this with me.”

I nodded and swallowed, great now IM crying. I tired to reach for his hand, “Enji.” His hand squeezed mine once I held his, “I’d love to share my life and first child with you,” I sniffled, “I don’t want my first child to not know it’s dad, so please, do everything you can to be there for us.”

***

“ILL,” I grunted and squeezed the hand burning my flesh, “I promise,” I let out a deep breath, “I’ll show you pain when this is over.” I took a few labored breaths, squeezing his hand, I pulled my hand out of his and took of my new wedding ring, “hold this it’s about to hurt us both once this head starts coming out.” I hissed feeling a sharp pain and then I felt it, it felt like a poop you can’t hold it, it dropped lower and “Alright Mrs.Todoroki, it’s crowning, so just give us a nice push-“

I flexed my lower abdomen and stopped when he said, I took breath, and clenched to Enji’s hand making sure to not squeezed my lower muscles in pain to avoid excessive bruising, “1...2...3... and push.”

I pushed again feeling pressure leaving my inside and pouring out of me, “Breathe,” the Doctor said and she looked up at me, “Someone has definitely been doing their workouts, this is going very quick and smooth.” She disappeared behind my legs and said “Last one,” a paused that felt like an hour, “Push-“ crying filled the room, “It’s a boy! Congratulations! Would you like to cut the umbilical cord Mr.Todoroki?” I let go of his hand but he hesitated, I nodded at him with a smile, the blood drained from him when he saw what everything looked like down there, he took the scissors and quickly cut before coming back to my side, “Placenta is coming.” She sis do felt another wave of pressure leaving me stomach, and I heard a wet plop, and a metallic sound. I shivered but quickly recovered when my necked son was placed on my now bear chest, I held him close and cried, he was a bit bloody still but I was so happy. The tears started falling as I hugged his gently and kissed his head of already bright red hair. “Precious, boy.” I said and gen’s got tried to rub some stuff off his face, he quickly attached to my breast and started to suckle,t tears didn’t stop as I looked up at Enji, he was wiping his own eyes.

“Have you thought of any names? Or should we wait a while?” The doctors said replacing her gloves and smock. “Well,” I looked up at Enji, “Things worked out, so? How about it?”

The doctor looked between us and Enji took the pen and notepad a nurse was holding, he wrote down the name and they nodded and took it, “Well then, I’ll leave you two with him a while longer until your pain has subsided and then we’ll take him to be weighed, and a few other things.”

We nodded and she smiled, “Congratulations, to the both of you.” Once more, after he stopped suckling I handed him to Enji and pulled my gown up, Enji seemed so scared, the baby WASNT small, he had rolls already, and they’re beautiful, but in Enji’s hands, he’s so small. “Hello,” he whispered and tried to cradle it ashore his chest on his forearm, it’s head resting against his bicep and pec. He brought his free hand to cover its torso and side, “I’m your father, I won’t ever leave you, I won’t ever hurt you, I never want to lose you, I’ll be with you always.” Call the hormone imbalance and recent loss of my child, but I was crying, I covered my face with my hands wiping the tears away, so cute.

***

“Enji?” I peeked into my room, nothing, “Enji?” Nothing was in the babies room, “Enji-“ there he was ok his back, on the floor, baby held up in the air, in his hands. The baby was laughing and flailing his arms and kicking. It was cute, I’d bought him an endeavor themed baby onesie, and Enji was wearing his hero costume without the armor. I stayed quiet watching as he stood up, and held the baby up to his shoulder, the baby placing a fist and his cheek on his shoulder, his eyes closed as Enji held him close. “I promise, I’ll never leave you.”

***

“where is he?!” I panicked and looked for my son, who just disappeared. I ran around the house and panic rose through the round when I heard gurgling don’t DROWN PELASE DONT DROWN BABY! Bursting into the master room fight or flight on high I felt stupid seeing Enji sleeping on his back arm circled around and pulling into his side the bundle of fire and Todoroki I was panicking for. The baby cooed moving closer to Enji, I sighed, my adrenaline wearing down, it was cute, especially when Enji turned to his side to hug our son to his chest, and mumbled out, “I’ll become someone you’ll be proud of, someone you can count on always.”

Kasey, so I had a whole idea/scenario that you needed to hear since I knew this dream would be a nightmare for Oikawa and I know how much you love him 💀 Absolutely based off of the jealousy fic you wrote lmao

So imagine dating Oikawa for a few years and having a younger sister move to Japan for Uni and finally getting to meet you're awesome bf! 😊 And it's a relief because they hit it off really well and your sister is already asking things like "When's the wedding? I'm invited, right?" or "Hey so does Toru have any hot friends? Asking for myself 👀" and it's going really well and all that jazz.

Then after getting settled in you guys all decide to go to a live volleyball game after some of the earlier ones ended to get your sister into the sport (which she does ofc) and while everyone is about to go she heads off to the stands to get a souvenir but is gone for a while. You guys look for her but she's not at the concessions stand??? Wtf?

And after a bit of searching you guys head towards the restrooms because maybe she's there and lo and behold there she is! And...oh. You see Toru's mood start to sour because she's she's taking pictures with Ushijima? And chatting his ear off???? Like you knew she was really friendly and all but he's 1. kind of a big deal and 2. your bf hates his guts, so to avoid a conflict you go over to get her and have a brief, terse interaction with Ushijima and the glares exchanged between him and Toru could be cut with a knife. Except your sister doesn't know any better and is just happy to be speaking with a real VBall player! 😲

So Toru tries to explain to her to stay away from that "Ushiwaka bastard" and tells her (with varying degrees of hyperbole) how much of a boring, self-righteous prick he is, and she's a bit down since he didn't seem that bad, but eventually you get her to agree to drop it.

Over the course of a few months she weasels you guys into taking her to more VBall games and she eventually begins to become a huge fan of the sport - so much that when she announces she wants to switch her major to Sports Psychology (to become a sports psychologist) it catches you guys off guard?? But you're happy anyways!

Except a lot of the games she goes to feature the Adlers, and almost every damn time you guys keep running into Ushijima and at this point Toru refuses to go with you guys to any games if the Adlers are playing lmao! Which hurts your sister's feelings, she was trying to understand the sport better so she and her future in-law will have something to talk about 🥺 But you reassure her that Toru and Ushijima just don't get along and then she hits you with, "But Toshi doesn't seem so bad 🥺 He's just a little awkward..."

And you need to pause because WHAT. THE FUCK. "TOSHI"? YOU GUYS ARE ON NICKNAME TERMS WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN????

And when you tell Toru he LOSES IT. Like, making more plans to keep her focused on her degree, taking her out to the movies with you guys, literally ANYTHING to keep her from speaking to that Ushiwaka Bastard like wtf. Eventually you guys come up with a plan and foist Hajime into the mix because according to Toru, "He had to take a lot of the same classes as you, y'know~! Iwa-chan studied in America too! Oh, and I think he's single as well, aren't you Iwa-chan??"

But of course this backfires HORRIBLY because Iwaizumi is such a stand-up guy and he likes your sister...as a friend 😔 He actually starts to see her as his own younger sibling so he's kind of a pushover for her lol And even though he also cannot stand Ushijima, he's worked with the Adlers before. And when she finds out she hits him with her puppy eyes 🥺 and wants to know if he has Toshi's number still and he does, and then he kinda...caves. Iwa's a sap LMFAO 🥴

Some more months go by and when your sister reveals that she's been seeing someone you're like 👀 Ohhh~ And Toru and Iwa are like 😠😡 Like they HAVE to meet him and interrogate him, and your sister pulls you aside and lets you that yes, some time along the last eight months she's been in Japan she's asked Toshi on a date and he agreed?? And you kind of short-circuit?! LIKE BITCH WHAT THAT WAS THE WORST PERSON OML-

So you try to tell her this is a horrible idea but then she kind of sheepishly mentions that on their last date - their third one?!?! WHEN TF DID THIS HAPPEN - he actually mustered up the courage to ask if he could kiss her and they did, and on one hand you're worried about Toru and Iwa's reaction and on the other you notice your sister has a TON of pictures, his name in her phone has hearts all over it, the lockscreen is a selfie of the two of them and it shocks you that he's smiling and she just looks so in love.

So you both agree to tell the guys...at a later date.

Well later means two months later because while you and Toru are out on a coffee date you both happen to catch your sister and Ushijima out on a coffee date as well (figures, you both love coffee dates lmao).

And the look on Toru's face when he sees Ushijima pull a chair out for your sister (and his at this point 😤) and when he gives her a quick peck on the lips just a couple of tables away is a mix between terrifying and comical.

And the look of absolute HORROR on your sister's face when she sees you guys is also borderline comical.

So ever the sweetheart, your sister decides since the cat's out of the bag she wants to try to reconcile Toshi and Toru's relationship and make it a double date 💀 And she is trying her BEST to make the best out of an awkward situation but Toru is just fuming because he can tell they're holding hands under the table and he HATES IT.

Literally while the guys are engaged in a staredown where if looks could kill there'd be a genocide she's carrying on the convo almost by herself and is trying her hardest to keep the guys engaged and is taking turns complimenting them and IT'S A MESS-

(Whew! I had to get that out lmao! That idea was in my head for a WHILE OML 😩)

I love this whole thing. I can imagine Tōru just losing his shit when he finds out that the love of his life's sister is dating Ushijima of all people. He'd be a scheming little bastard and do anything he can, absolutely anything, to break them up. Feelings be damned, he does not want to some day possibly be related to Ushijima in any way. Tōru would not enjoy that double date and he wouldn't even try and pretend like he could. He'd probably kick Ushijima underneath the table and say he didn't do it and "(y/n)'s leg must've had a spasm, huh love?" and you just sigh and say "Sorry, I've been having knee problems" because even if Ushijima doesn't believe it, Oikawa is childish and there's no way around that

This was adorable, I love it ❤️

Oikawa x F! Reader

Chapter 1

Word count: 1.9k

RANDOM POST:

You let yourself be held by Matsukawa with Hanamaki's legs thrown over yours.

"Mrs. Darcy ....Mrs. Darcy…. Mrs. Darcy ....Mrs. Darcy," Mr. Darcy says to Lizzie on the T.V screen.

Hanamaki sniffles, "Yo I thought this was gonna be cringey but I'm crying right now."

Matsukawa nods, silent tears rolling down his face. You smile a little and both pat them affectionately.

"Pride and Prejudice, will always be timeless. The book and the movie. I honestly think it's great either way. And Mr. Darcy is just UGH perfect," you say sniffling yourself and resting your head on the pillows.

It's been 1 month since you arrived at Aoba Johsai, and you settled in with Hanamaki and Matsukawa as your "in school friends". You've been hanging out together now, and even more so because of volleyball practice and you being manager.

You got close enough to each other that now you were bundled up with blankets, with Hanamaki laying on you and being held by Matsukawa. Popcorn, chips and candy are laying on the ground everywhere with CD's stacked up on the ground.

"Bro this is actually a good show," Hanamaki says looking up at Matsukawa.

"Yo can you be quiet because I'm trying to process this shit," Matsukawa says and you start laughing.

"Okay okay, the next movie is called…." You say searching through the pile.

"....10 Things I Hate About You!" You say pulling out the CD and sliding off the couch.

"What's this one about?" Hanamaki asks, "Is it like a history one like the one we just watched?"

You scoff, "No, this is totally different. It's a highschool one. I'm not going to explain it because it's confusing so just watch it."

You put the CD in and the TV starts up to play the movie. You walk back to the couch as Matsukawa scoots to make some room.

"Yo, [Name], tell me when the movie's actually starting because Iwa and Oikawa are texting me right now and say they wanna talk," Matsukawa says sliding off the couch.

"You too Makki."

Hanamaki looks at Matsukawa weirdly, "Wait why? I wanna watch the movie."

Matsukawa shrugs his shoulders,"Just come over for a bit, it'll probably be short. You cool with that [Name]?"

You nod. You weren't surprised that Oikawa and Iwaizumi wanted to talk to them. They were friends for a while and what you gathered from their perspective, you sort of ruined their whole dynamic.

Especially Oikawa. The volleyball captain, despite your best efforts to try and communicate with him as manager, he'd make up some random excuse or fakely answers your question with that annoying sarcasm and perfectionism that everyone seemed to buy.

Other than that the man literally glared at you, staring spears into your eyes when you caught him looking. You wish you could talk to him about it but it was made very clearly, he didn't like you "stealing" his friends.

"Wait so you're from?" Matsukawa says at the lunch table.

"I'm from [Country], but my parents moved here in Japan for my 1st year of highschool for business and because they move around a lot I've been staying at my Aunt's. I went to Karasuno for a while, then my parents decided I should enroll here," you say, picking at your lunch.

Matsukawa smiles, "Hey that's pretty cool, our volleyball team is actually having practice with them! Soon I think.... I'm not sure. I can ask Oikawa… wait! He's here!"

Matsukawa and you turn to the tall man, with the brown locks.

"Oikawa! Come sit with me, [Name], and Hanamaki today! You too Iwa!"

The two men came over and now you were sitting between Matsukawa and Hanamaki while facing Oikawa and Iwaizumi.

Oikawa gives an indifferent stare at you for a split second before resuming a happy disposition.

"Who might you be?" He asks.

Your body physically retreats back because he made it seem like he does know you, but wanted to take a stab at you.

What the fuck is his problem, you think.

"It's [Name]. And you're Iwaizumi and Oikawa?"

Iwaizumi nods, before Oikawa cuts him off icily, "Yeah yeah. I guess what I'm asking is what are you doing here at the volleyball table?"

Ok so he DEFINITELY doesn't like you and Iwaizumi seems to sense this because he shoves Oikawa's shoulder.

He pulls Oikawa by his arm and abruptly stands up, "God, I apologize about that. Me and Oikawa are going to sit somewhere else."

And with that you were left with a confused Hanamaki and an equally confused Matsukawa, struggling to comprehend what happened.

You've been meaning to talk to Hanamaki about this, but you decided against it. You shouldn't be meddling in their affairs anyway. They were friends longer and Oikawa was probably just having a bad day. You assured yourself with baseless rumors about how Oikawa was a happy-go-lucky boy who was talented, smart and kind to others. Surely he couldn't be bad?

The stares, condescending smirks, and judgemental stares said otherwise. It was as if he gave everyone special treatment, except you. And you really didn't know why.

Until today, you're gonna eavesdrop on their conversation.

You tug on Hanamaki and motion for him to lean into you. He complied and you whisper in his ear.

"Hey just for fun can I listen to the call? I promise I won't make any sound," you say and beam up at him.

Hanamaki pulls back from your face and laughs, "Sure you're too freaking cute to say no to anyways. Mattsun! Can [Name] listen in? Just for fun?"

You turn to Matsukawa and say, "I promise I won't say anything or make any sounds."

Matsukawa smirks, "I don't really care. It's probably about homework anyways."

You and Hanamaki share a devil-like smile. Something unspoken was between the two of you, and you both concluded that this conversation was most definitely not about homework.

Suddenly a voice picks up on Matsukawa's phone and he puts it on speaker.

"Hey? What do you guys need?" he says, calmly.

Iwaizumi's voice cut through, "Nothing just, Oikawa's a little upset."

Hanamaki jumps in, "Wait why?"

Iwaizumi sighs, "He's not telling me, but I think he's upset that you guys are with [Name] and not hanging out with us. Which is weird because we literally hang out a lot together and this is sort of like a once in a while thing right?"

You slap your hand to your face and Hanamaki buries his face into your shoulder, trying to stifle your laughs.

Matsukawa clears his throat, "Uh yeah? So what do you want us to do? Want us to invite you guys over? My parents aren't home so I don't think they'll mind having you come over."

Oikawa's voice, clear as day rings through the phone.

"Oh so a GIRL is alright at your house?"

Your eyes widen as you share a look with Matsukawa. You were tempted to grab the phone and give the guy a piece of his mind but Hanamaki grabbed your wrist.

"Man, chill. This is one of the only times she can come over. And I didn't think you would care so much about her, when you literally have girlfriends left and right," Matsukawa says, earning an approving look from you.

Iwaizumi talks, "Yeah, I'm pretty sure Oikawa hates her guts because of some of the attention she's getting-

"Am not!"

"-because she's the new manager, new student and she quickly became friends with you two and the team…"

Then Iwaizumi suddenly whispers, "Or Oikawa thinks she's interesting and you know.."

Hanamaki looks at you and you jerk your head to the phone.

"Uh… what do you mean?"

You hear Iwaizumi slap himself in the forehead, "He thinks she's interesting romantically dipshits."

Matsukawa snaps his fingers, "Oh he wants to fuck her?" He looks at you and wiggles his eyebrows.

You furrow your eyebrows and flip him off.

"What no? I mean I guess? I don't know…"

Hanamaki looks at Matsukawa questioningly. And this time, you didn't know what it meant.

Hanamaki barely mouths, "But doesn't he-"

Matsukawa glares at him with a "let's continue this conversation later" look.

"Uh alright Iwaizumi, I'm gonna let you go now… byeeee", He says.

"Wait Mattsun no-".

You stare nonchalantly at the screen, "Well you know that was…"

Hanamaki finishes,"Interesting? No more scandalous."

You punch him in the arm, "Wow did watching a Jane Austen movie expand your vocabulary? Maybe we should ask our English teacher to watch period pieces for our class.”

Matsukawa laughs, “And hear this man’s ANNOYING crying! In class? Hell no.”

Hanamaki scoffs, “First of all shut the fuck up Mattsun, and second, I see what you did there. Turning the attention to me.”

He looks back at you and you give a disinterested look.

“Sure, but it's not really anything new. I’ve had plenty of people who hated me at first actually wanted to get to know me. I can’t blame that. People tend to do that when they encounter something new," you tell them.

"I don't blame Oikawa for being, I don't know, a bitch to me. I did kind of steal some time away from all of you to hang out together." You shrug the volleyball jacket Hanamaki gave you back on and look at the boys.

Matsukawa sighs, "Don't think about it too much [Name]. He's probably stressed and stuff about volleyball and all his school things. And honestly don't hook up with him, he's sorta a player."

You nod and turn your attention to the T.V, but you can't ignore the weird look Matsukawa and Hanamaki give each other before finally settling in and watching the movie.

MATSUKAWA POV:

He sees Hanamaki not so subtly come back to the couch, but [Name] doesn't mind the intrusion.

Truth be told, Matsukawa did care for [Name], but not as much as Hanamaki did. To him, [Name] was just another friend he could vibe with. For Hanamaki, it was much more.

He didn't exactly know Hanamaki's motives with [Name]. He knew they were somewhat platonic, but he couldn't tell for sure.

As for Oikawa… yeah that was clueless for him. He didn't want to agree right away with Makki, his pride wouldn't allow that, but he was right. Oikawa did find [Name] interesting, romantically.

He saw it in the way his eyes would immediately trail over to her when she walked to class. How Oikawa would cover his face "casually", when she would randomly waltz around the room with him. When Oikawa would purposely wait a while and then join the lunch line so he could go near [Name]. Sometimes, Matsukawa could literally see Oikawa undressing her with his eyes when she was at volleyball practice and she was running back and forth getting water bottles and towels, sweat covering her like sheet.

He noticed and kept them to himself. Matsukawa Issei didn't owe anybody the information he had. So he kept it to himself. He really didn't have to tell anybody.

So that's what he did. Like how he's probably going to keep this information and statements from Iwa and Makki to himself as well. He won't confront Oikawa about it, nor will he meddle with Oikawa's relationship.

But what he will do is subtly give you hints about what's going on. He thinks you're a smart enough girl, that once he gives you the directions you'll figure it out.

As to why he wants to do it. He doesn't know. Perhaps, you've grown on him.

Yes. Perhaps you did.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO DISCLOSE

[Name] is used to men's lewd behavior because they will do ANYTHING to sleep with ANYBODY she thinks

Matsukawa and Hanamaki trust [Name], but not enough to give her The Look

Matsukawa and Hanamaki know something that [Name] doesn't.

Note

If it's any consolation, I'm sure that the Advisors and the rest of the MLA (Re-Destro, Trumpet, Geten) will show back up sooner than the final arc, just because we're going into Year 2 and the students would find great 1 on 1 or team opponents with the Advisors. Re-Destro and Geten are heavy hitters (and Geten could be tied to Dabi, Shoto and all that somehow) and they were locked up with Mr. Compress and Machia, but who do you want to see first from the Advisors?

Thanks, anon; I certainly do hope we'll get to see more of them. Admittedly, my main concern is that I so liked what was going on with the Paranormal Liberation Front that even if we do see all of the MLA types again, if it's only in the context of speedbump battles for the students, that's still going to be a letdown. Better than nothing, to be sure, but I really do want them to join back up with the League, even a League that's confused and out of sorts under All For One's hand. I love RD's big spiritual-awakening-flavored crush on Shigaraki, the cross-organization tensions and relationships, just as much as I love the depth the MLA brings to the world outside of just what's going on with the heroes.

I'm fairly frustrated with how the MLA fared during and after the raid, largely because it's awfully hard not to conclude that, if what we have right now is all the erstwhile-MLA are ever going to come to, Shigaraki would have been significantly better off if he'd just killed them all and shacked up with Ujiko for four months. And that would be such a waste! The end of My Villain Academia was such an enormous triumph for Shigaraki! I want his victory to amount to something more than what we've seen, something that shows that both his strength and his mercy will pay off for him in the long-term, will be a concrete benefit to him rather than, with the benefit of hindsight, the reason everything went so wrong.

Particularly with Re-Destro, since Horikoshi saw fit to have Dark Shadow all but one-shot the man, and Edgeshot defeat him off-panel, it's really not going to mean much to me for him to have a big fight with students unconnected to anything else. The drama's rather gone out of it at this point. That's particularly the case since, if he's no longer connected to Shigaraki's plot, it's that much easier for him to just be off-paneled and forgotten about. But, if Rikiya gets looped back in with the League, if his gratitude and admiration of Shigaraki mean he still has a role to play in Shigaraki's arc, that makes it much easier to get invested in any fights that role will lead him to. Ditto the MLA more broadly; it's categorically ridiculous to present that organization with the kinds of numbers, breadth of influence and legitimate grievances they have, only to try to sweep them back under the rug exactly like Shigaraki accuses heroes of doing with everyone they can't save.

To say the least, I'm pretty invested. But I appreciate your consolations and am trying to hold out hope that we'll get some good stuff with them yet!

My anxieties aside, and to hit the other portion of your ask--who would I like to see first among the Advisors?--hit the jump:

(All nicknames and shorthand are taken from this post.)

Well, it'd be nice if they could all get at least as much to do as the Eight Bullets back during the Hassaikai arc, seeing as they got a similar splash page spread introducing all their faces. There are considerably more than eight of them, of course, but even if they never get more attention than e.g. Galvanize or the hose-faced guy who iced Midnight did, at least then we'd have some idea of their power sets and at least one angle on their personality.

Assuming we aren’t going to get full breakdowns on every single one of them, there are still four things I'd really like to see happen with the MLA/the Advisors: the student fights we're expecting, the jailbreaks we're being told about, the reunion with the League I'm praying for, and for literally anyone in the in-world media to try and get their side of the story.

Student Fights: Seeing the guy who killed Midnight again is as sure a bet as any of these get. Momo is an important enough character, with enough sustained arc, that she will have to get something else to do before the series is over. Taking command of a group battle against real opponents--ones with more responsiveness and agency than Gigantomachia--would be in-line with what she's been moving towards so far. I would, however, love it if that fight would be more challenging than a straightforward battle of tactics.

I headcanon Hose Face and Scarecrow as, respectively, an ex-con and a dude with physical disabilities--both people who have ample reason to want to change the series' status quo irt human rights abuses in prison and overly restrictive quirk use laws. I'm not expecting the canon to validate me on what amount to wild guesses, of course, but I want those Advisors in particular to have motivations more nuanced than, "They're quirk supremacists; who cares why they're willing to put their lives on the line over this?"

A feel-good revenge match in which a bunch of teenagers lay the smack down on characters whose humanity the audience is asked neither to know nor care about would be lazy, and counterproductive to the series' current thematic concerns. Give Momo her victory, by all means, but don't give it to her easy. A confrontation like this would be a good way for the less central Class A students to begin wrestling with the question of who, exactly, heroes "save" and what it is that people need to be saved from, exactly the way Deku and Uraraka and Shouto are now wrestling with these questions.

As far as other fights go, I'd also love to see Brand and The Question pop up again. They're probably the two I'm most curious about purely in terms of what their quirks are. Why does The Question wear a mask, and what's he like that he wound up in Mr. Compress's chain of command? And with Brand, what kind of quirk does he have that's powerful enough to land him a ranked position in the Guerilla Warfare Regiment but indirect enough that he fights with a sword?

Prison Breaks: I wouldn't expect this to be particularly involved, probably more of an aside than anything, but I want the Bindi Ladies to spring Hole Punch Face, thus getting us an angle on what's going on with that particular trio. Aviator Teeth can come too because I want at least some hints about what his deal is.

I'd also love to watch Horikoshi even attempt to retroactively justify some of the logistics of the single-day capture and subsequent detention of 17,000 super-powered, combat-trained people.* I mean, I don't think there are any feasible explanations for that, but I'd be curious to see what he'd come up with, especially if every possible answer just makes Hero Society look worse! We have only ever seen Tartarus as an example of the prison conditions in this country; I'd love to hear more, and an MLA-focused jailbreak would be a great way to show it.

PLF Reunion: Of course, my number one thing to see with a reunion is Re-Destro being just as dismayed as Spinner is over Tomura's possession. I crave more serious attention being paid to Rikiya's profound awe over Shigaraki's freedom, and would love to see his reaction to Shigaraki apparently losing that freedom.

Aside from the obvious, though, if the PLF does start piecing itself back together, I expect to see Sanctum again, given the attention he's gotten so far, and the fact that he's now the highest-ranked member of the Tactics Regiment. It'd be great to get some explanation for how he can possibly be "the longest-serving member of the Liberation Army," given that the Army was generations old already when Re-Destro was just a child. (If we do get that information, I imagine my own explanation will be jossed hugely, so I would also be happy to take time with Sanctum that doesn't explain the discrepancy but also doesn't invalidate my headcanon.)

In the context of the regiments reforming, I'd also like to see Nimble and Aster, both because this manga needs more women, and because I'd like to see more of how Spinner and Toga interact with the people they were nominally commanding.

Media Attention: Trumpet's my number one hope here--the lack of any look into the state of the government in HeroAca Japan has been a total let-down since his introduction**, but I was particularly annoyed that the last time we saw him he was smiling (albeit in a fairly haggard way), giving me hope that we might next see him doing his part to portray all of this in a light that would sway public opinion. And then literally one chapter later, we get prison guards talking about how the Hearts & Minds Party, a perfectly legitimized political party with representation on the national level, has been perfunctorily dissolved less than twelve hours from when the raid started. How is there even an argument that the system heroes were upholding desperately needs to change?

I'm very tired of the media in BNHA only ever showing up to beg for/demand that heroes tell them what’s going on, particularly those damn press conferences. Journalists do investigative work! Newspapers employ reporters to actively seek out news! Reporters in free countries don't just sit around waiting for the government or heads of major industries to graciously hand them press releases! For heaven's sake, Trumpet was the head of a major political party. People should be foaming at the mouth trying to get a statement from him!

Especially with public trust in heroes breaking down, there should absolutely be intrepid reporters out there looking to get to the bottom of any of the layered conspiracies the public's just been hit with and told to just write-off as a bump in the road on the return to normalcy.

Anyway, Trumpet's the obvious choice, but if I could be sure the manga would validate my headcanons about Nimble and Scarecrow's disabilities, I'd be happy to put them in this position, too. Trucker Toad would be another good candidate, if there's any basis to my idea that he is or used to be a transport driver who's seen a lot of the country outside the areas e.g. the Top Ten Heroes are patrolling. He's obviously a good candidate for getting back to that idea of anti-heteromorph bias, too. But really, I'd take anyone who can give a cogent explanation of the MLA's position on self-determination and the various ways Hero Society has exacerbated quirk-based discrimination.

Anyway, that's about where my thoughts are on where I hope the MLA people are and what we might see of them. Thanks for the ask!

--------------

*Or as many as 100,000 more than that, depending on how through the statement, "Their bases around the country were also attacked, and their supporters rounded up," was meant to be. An influx of 116K people, incidentally, would triple Japan's current carceral population.

**Why! Why would you introduce a politician and then never even glance at your setting's political situation??

master list

As the choreographer allows a break, the members of the band sit and cool down while the arguably most chaotic member sings Circus by Britney Spears quite loudly. The sound of footsteps running in the hall catches the attention of the band as someone yells, "FREE BRITNEY!" before they continue running down the hall.

Confused, Chang Nari looks around the room, her band mates equally confused before she realizes that those are the first words her soulmate says to her. She rushes to look outside the door into the hallway, unfortunately too late to see the culprit. Sighing, she walks back to her band mates and takes a sip of her water.

"What was that?" Eun asks. "My soulmate." She shrugs. Osamu spits his water out in shock. "What!?" All four members ask at the same time. "Free Britney." She says showing them her wrist. "H.K, 18, XII." Hyejin reads.

"Okay, your soulmate is eighteen, good you won't catch a case. Twelve months? Days? Minutes?" Yejun says. "Unless you keep track it's hard to tell. Mine said twelve and then the next minute it said eleven so that's how I kept track and found my soulmate twelve minutes after our concert." Osamu says.

"Duri is so amazing." Hyejin gushes over Osamu's soulmate. "Well it's been a minute and it hasn't changed so it's not minutes." Nari says. "Okay, back to practice." The choreographer says. Practice goes well and soon the band is going back to their dorm.

The bands dorm is five bedrooms so each member has their own and that proves convenient for when someone wants a guest over. Opening the door, Hyejin hears a loud meow and a hello. "Duri!" Eun yells, running to the kitchen where Duri is cooking for the band. "Nabi!" Nari yells, picking up the small kitten that ran to her.

Petting the four month old cat, Nari walks to the kitchen were everyone has gathered. "Hi, Duri!" She smiles at the older female. "Hi, Nari. Nabi was very talkative today." She smiles back. "She seems to get more and more talkative every day." Yejun says.

"She also gets more energetic each day." Hyejin says. "She's only a kitten, of course she's energetic." Nari defends. A knock on the door pulls their attention and Nari goes to open it as she's the closest. She looks out the peephole before she opens it. "Hello?" She says. "Hello, are you one of the members of H.O.N.E.Y?" He asks her.

"Yes, how can I help?" She asks. "I'm Kang Taehyun of Tomorrow x Together, we wanted to know if you guys have any time that we can meet and ask for advice? BTS recommended asking you guys for more advice if we need it." He says. "One moment." She smiles turning to face the kitchen.

"CAN SOMEONE BRING ME THE PLANNER AND A PEN AND ALSO GRAB NABI FROM ME!?" She yells. "YEAH." Eun yells back. Eun brings the planner and a pen and grabs Nabi from Nari's arms. "Okay, so, we are really busy training this week but we are available two Tuesdays from now, that's in twelve days." She says. Taehyun pulls out his phone and checks his calendar.

"We're free then, where do you want to meet?" He asks. "Just bring your band here, as long as no ones allergic to cats." She says. "None of us are, So two Tuesdays from now, here, what time?" He asks. "Two in the afternoon?" She asks. "That works, thank you." He says with a bow. "It's no problem." She smiles.

She closes the door an shoes back to the kitchen. "WE MADE IT!" She yells. "What!?" Yejun asks. "BTS recommended a newer band to us for advice." She smiles. "Ooh, what band?" Hyejin asks. "Tomorrow x Together." She answers, grabbing the pencil from next to the calendar. She finds the Tuesday that's planned and writes 'txt at 2pm'.

"Oh, oh, uhh, they have that song with morse code at the beginning that they debuted with, right?" Yejun asks Osamu. "Yeah, Crown." Osamu confirms. "They also have anti-romantic, which has a tiktok dance." Eun says. "I like Nap of a star." Hyejin says. "Two Tuesdays from now at 2pm?" Eun asks. "Yes, it's on the planner and the calendar, just like always." Nari confirms.

"Taehyun came to the door and introduced himself. He said that BTS recommended us if they needed more advice." She gushes. "You look up to them so much it's hilarious." Eun laughs. "They have over 47 million followers on instagram and they have like over 35 million monthly listeners on spotify. They have fans in probably every country, they have worked with Halsey and others, they have broken so many barriers in the Kpop world, and they have won countless awards. Why wouldn't I look up to them?" She asks.

"Your fan girl is showing, Nari." Duri laughs. "Oh well, it's not a secret I'm an army." She shrugs. Duri finishes cooking dinner and plates it for everyone before they sit and eat together. They share light conversation, just bonding as they usually do. "I'm thinking about getting a puppy." Nari says randomly after a few moments of silence.

"No you aren't." Eun says. "Yeah, I'm not. It's like that one time I said I was going to cut my hair short, I don't mean it I just said it because I thought about it." I shrug. "Do you wanna dye your hair tonight? I have leftover pink and with your black roots it'll look really good, we can just put it over the bleached part." Hyejin says. "Yes, as soon as we finish dinner that way I have time to shower and be well rested for tomorrow." She says.

After dinner, Osamu and Yejun do the dishes while Hyejin and Nari go to the bathroom and Eun goes and sits in the living room with Duri. Nari sets up her phone to do a live while Hyejin works on her hair. "Hello, hello." She waves as people start joining. "How's my day? My days been very good, we did a lot of practicing dances and then we came home and ate a nice dinner and now Hyejin is dying my hair." She says.

"What color? Pink." She answers. "I got an idea, you trust me right?" Hyejin asks her. "Yes, do whatever you want to my hair." She replies. "Favorite english word? Ricochet or maybe bodacious. I like to say words like ethereal and surreal as well though." She says.

"Something exciting that happened today? Well, today I had a fellow idol ask if their band could meet with our band and ask some advice because BTS recommended us for if they needed more advice. I was very honored." She answers.

"My bias in BTS? Not available because they're all kinda like older brothers to me." She says. "Favorite Kpop group? I like Twice and Red Velvet and Stray Kids and BTS and Blackpink and more." She answers. "What are the full names, pronouns, and ages of everyone in the band? Well, fun fact if you're ever struggling to remember one of our names just remember H.O.N.E.Y is our initials. In honey order it's Hyejin, Osamu, Nari, Eun, and Yejun. Age order it's Yejun, Osamu, Eun, Hyejin, Nari. Last names are Kim Yejun, Jeong Osamu, Lee Eun, Yun Hyejin, and Chang Nari." She answers.

"Oh I forgot to say ages and pronouns, Yejun is 25, Osamu is 25, Eun is 23, Hyejin is 20, and I'm 18. Yejun is non-binary so they/them, Osamu uses he/him, Eun is she/they, Hyejin is gender fluid so any pronouns, and I use she/her." She adds. "What ethnicity is Osamu? Half Korean half Japanese. His mom is from Japan and she moved here and met his dad." She answers.

"How many of us have found our soulmates? Just Osamu, however I believe I almost met my soulmate today because we were taking a water break and I was singing Circus by Britney Spears and someone ran past and said 'free Britney' which are the words on my wrist." She smiles. "Favorite Britney song? Probably Circus because it's really catchy." She answers.

"How was my english so good at our debut when I was only thirteen? My moms Australian and so that entire half of my family speaks English and from a young age she would make sure I could understand it. Also, my dad was moved to America for work when I was four and so we moved and lived there for eight years then we came back to South Korea when they moved him back and I became a trainee and we debuted a year later when Yejun and Osamu finished their military service." She answers.

"Are we ever going to take a break? We don't plan to, that's why BigHit had Yejun and Osamu complete their military service pre-debut." She answers. "Do I listen to the neighborhood? Yes, I like Cry Baby, Daddy Issues, and Sweater Weather." She says. "What are my soulmates initials? H.K. and we assume it's not the english way so it's surname, given name." She says.

"Why am I the main vocalist when I prefer rapping? I'm the main vocalist because I have the largest vocal range." She says. "Song that gets stuck in my head easily? A lot of them but Choke by I Dont Know How But They Found Me is stuck in my head right now." She answers. "Which band did BTS recommend us to? That's a secret but I can tell you that there's a K initial." She says.

"My soulmate? No, the K is his surname, not first." She smiles. "A question for Hyejin, soulmates initials and age?" Nari asks. "M.L. and 24." She answers. "Favorite Melanie Martinez song? High School Sweethearts." She answers. "Okay, you're hair is done. Let the dye sit for an hour and a half then wash it out." Hyejin tells her.

"Okay, hour and a half left on live. It's going to be in english now because I saw my moms in the chat and she said she likes the slight American accent I have." She says. "What collections do I have? I have a manga collection, Kpop album collection, Funko Pop collection, and a vinyl collection." She answers. "Favorite color? I like pastel purples, like lavender." She answers.

"Favorite Harry Styles song? From the Dining Table." She answers. She spends the rest of the time answering questions until her timer goes off. "Okay, I have to go shower and then I'll be going to bed so that I'm well rested for practice tomorrow. I love you all, bye!" She waves, ending the live.

“The Lemonade” Guy Pt. 1

When Jade realizes her feelings for a certain schoolmate go beyond a friendship, she makes a tremendous effort to rid herself of it.

Song Inspo(s): Wicked Games - Kiana Lede; I Won’t Say I’m In Love - Hercules

International AU!

Word Count: 4k+

There was rarely ever something Jade tried to avoid other than the topic of Manu. The reactions that came upon his death were much too triggering to her anger, and she refused to allow that level of rage to overcome her again; thankfully this was not the case. Now while that was a relief, the actual issue being avoided proved to be almost as troubling, and the foreign girl did not realize the matter until recently.

UA High was bustling with noise and movement, people curious about the UA students from different parts of the world. Jade was blessed to have been shown secret entrances and passageways by Ren as to avoid news reporters. While it wasn’t anything she wasn’t unfamiliar with, the second year student knew uncomfortable and personal questions would turn up if given the chance, so she decided staying in the shadows would be safe for now. Stepping onto school grounds, Jade found Maeda, Kubo and Ren chatting with two students she could not recognize. One was a girl with long cyan hair and a bright expression, and the other a boy with his head turned away from the trio. Hm...maybe they're new kids? It was difficult to tell whether or not they were around the same age as her, but Jade concluded they were older looking at their height. The girl craned her neck to look over her shoulder then gasped loudly.

"Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshisthisher?!" She sped towards the international student and stretched a hand outward, grinning widely. "Nejire Hado, third year here at the original UA! You must be Jade, I was just asking your friends about you, and I heard you were from Los Angeles! Tell me what it's like! Is the food really good? What about the school? Is it different from the UA here? Ooh, what about your father? Is it true about him being a Pro Hero? What's his quirk? Is it like yours? Wha--"

"Easy Hado, she just got here," Ren intervened with a light chuckle. "Well, she already introduced herself, so that leaves the guy hiding behind her, Tamaki Amajiki, also a third year student. He's a bit shy as you can see." Jade leaned on her side to find the indigo haired male from earlier, head hung low and arms crossed tightly. She gave a small smile when he peeked up from the locks curtaining his face, pleased when he gave a single nod.

"It's nice to meet you both," chirped the foreign girl with a bow to which Hado squealed.

"And she's respectful! Ah, such an intriguing new person to meet--oh! I have to introduce you to Mirio, you'll love him, most girls do. Now where is he--" She scampered away with Tamaki in tow, slipping into the sea of students and staff members. Jade watched on with a scowl on her face. Most girls do? What is she trynna say, that I'm gonna be part of some bandwagon? She felt a hand on her shoulder pulling her out of her thoughts.

"She didn't mean it like that," came Ren's voice again. "Hado has a very blunt and unconventional way of speech, don’t mind her."

"It's something she can work on considering she wants to pursue becoming a Pro Hero," Maeda interjected, her tone flat but firm. Jade hummed in agreement and looked amongst the other pupils. Upon seeing the many faces, her eyes became fixed on one that stood out.

In a large crowd of females stood a tall and bulky male, his smile gleaming and proud. He appeared to be speaking to them, a round of giggles following soon after whatever he’d said. There were a few international students Jade recognized taking pictures with him and handing him slips of paper, presumably with some kind of social contact on it. That must be who the girl was talking about seeing he has an entire--wait a minute! It wasn’t until he looked up that she realized why the male seemed familiar. That’s the guy who I ran into at the entrance! The one who gave me that stupid nickna--

“Gemstone!”

Jade cursed inwardly as he advanced in her direction. She glanced at the entourage behind him, their faces surprised or annoyed, and it didn’t help that some of them were now moving closer too. Her feet were glued in place as the male stood before her, a cheeky grin evident on his face. Blonde hair, blue eyes, nice body...definitely the same guy from the first day.

”Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten my name already,” he chuckled, crossing his arms. Jade noted how the gesture made his already defined muscles tighten. An odd tension arose in her abdomen, but she quickly dismissed it and cleared her throat.

”Togata if I remember correctly.” The foreign girl bowed, remembering her manners. It was best to keep a respectful image considering the person before her was not only older, but one of the most skilled students attending the original UA. “It's good to s—“

”Togata, I need some help getting to my classes," a voice suddenly cut in. It came as a realization to Jade that a majority of the girls from earlier were now surrounding them. The person who had spoken was an international student herself, but she didn't look too pleased that all the attention was on someone else. Her hand crawled up Togata's arm in a suggestive manner before resting at his shoulder. "I'm not too familiar with UA Japan's complex," she continued, "so it would help a lot."

"Ooh wait, I think I need help too!" someone else from the crowd piped.

"I do as well!"

"Me too!"

Soon numerous hands were tugging at the tall male with pleads and demands of showing them around the school. Jade watched as Togata weakly smiled and tried to talk amongst the bunch with reason; it proved useless as they continued to grab at him from every direction. An unusual feeling rushed to her torso again, but something felt much different from earlier. In place was a strong stinging sensation, not enough to hurt but enough to generate irritation. What in the hell--

"Something wrong, Lofota?" Maeda's voice snapped Jade back into reality. Ren and Kubo were before her, curiosity etched on their features. From her peripheral line of vision she could see the bulky third year being dragged away with a familiar cyan and indigo haired duo following close behind.

"We saw Togata and his groupies approach you, but you looked as if you were ready to jump at one of them," Kubo remarked. "I personally don't mind, just give me a heads up next time so I can record it for memories." Maeda rolled her eyes at this.

Jade chuckled and shook her head. "It wasn't anything like that, guys, I think my mind was just occupied with something else. Let's try and get to class before news reporters start breaking through the gates." She walked alongside the trio and listened to them explain UA Japan's school system and the events that were set throughout the year. Despite her nonchalant attitude, the sting remained in Jade's stomach; she figured it would go away after some medication and rest.

It took a little over a month for the second year to realize that the peculiar feelings in her system were not an overnight situation. Jade took matters into her own hands and recorded when her stomach fell into any eccentric sensation, noting what, when and how much she ate and any possible patterns. When food appeared to be free of guilt, she tried looking at her sleep patterns and clothing for clues but was met with the same result. Her concern had caught Ren's attention when the medic pupil found her seated on a hospital bed speaking to Recovery Girl.

"Hon, I've ran multiple scans and checkups and found nothing," sighed the elder. "Your health is in great shape and according to your own data, it seems like you're doing just fine. Maybe try laying down, it seems this issue with your tummy is stressing you out." Jade complied wordlessly, but Ren could see that she was still in heavy thought. When Recovery Girl exited the office, she took a seat beside the bed and peered up. "Thinkin' real hard over there, aren't you?"

Jade turned on her side with a groan. "I just wanna figure out what the hell is wrong with me, it's starting to piss me off."

"What've you been doing?"

"School, hero training, eating, sleeping, the usual."

"Any foods you can think of that caused that pain?"

"No, but that's the weird part!" The foreign student sat up and pulled a leg to her chest. "This feeling I keep getting, it doesn't hurt. It just--it doesn't...I never had this before, but I'm not sure if that means I'm doing something wrong that's causing my body to react the way it does."

Ren arched her brows in search of an answer. "Can you maybe describe this 'feeling' by comparing it to something? Or perhaps using a metaphor? Just so I can understand this better."

"It...well, there's usually two kinds of reactions. At one point, my abdomen feels light but constricted, like it can't take anything in because everything is squeezed out. When that happens, I also feel my heart rate pick up, and my body feels overheated." The medic nodded and gestured to continue. "The second feeling is more like a stinging one, or like a burn--yeah, burning would be a more accurate comparison. When my stomach gets like that, I get really annoyed, but there's only so much I can do when the problem is internal. I tend to get more of the first reaction than I do the second, if that helps."

It was an interesting explanation given, and Ren understood why Recovery Girl struggled a bit providing help. She was quiet for a long time, but just as her friend was about to speak, she asked another question: "Does this ever happen around a specific time? Specific person? Maybe a certain group of people or things?"

Jade blinked before lying down again, her attention focused on the ceiling. Is there somebody or something always near me when this happens? She reeled through all the faces and names she'd ever interacted with, staff members, students, strangers, but no exact nouns came to mind that she could recall triggering this reaction. The foreign student shook her head.

"Huh, well...what's the earliest you recall first feeling these sensations?"

"I think the earliest I felt it was when I was talking to Togata and--" Almost immediately the rest of Jade's sentence died on her tongue. Ren quickly caught the abrupt end and tried to make understanding of what had just happened. The memory was clear as day in her mind, meeting Hado and Amajiki, Togata walking up to her with immaculate bulging muscles, the crowd of female students hauling him away and the indefinable feelings in her abdomen, it all began to click. However, looking over the details of that time, Jade realized that the sensations ultimately activated when she was around--

"Togata."

She whipped her head in surprise.

"Togata is the cause behind your odd abdominal feelings," Ren smiled, "which tells me this is definitely not a medical issue." She bit back a laugh at the disbelief on Jade's face. It seemed she understood what was being implied as she began shaking her head feverently.

"No no no and no, you better not say what I think you're about to say, Ishikawa."

"Aw, c'mon now Jade, you can't be upset at me! I was just trying to help you understand the cause of your stomach issues, looks like it was just butterflies the whole time."

The foreign student grimaced. "Ren, please don't."

"But it's actually cute! I personally think that you both--"

"REN I GET IT, STOP."

Jade sat in irritation until her friend ceased laughing, then hopped off the bed and brushed off her uniform. The medic pupil stood up immediately and pulled her into a hug, chuckling lightly. "Well, now that we found the root of the issue, what are you gonna do? Am I helping you plan a confession?"

"I'm gonna get rid of it.” Ren's snickering stopped. Jade's face and tone was enough to say she wasn't kidding.

"Heh, I uh...I don't think I heard you correctly?"

"Get rid of it. I'll just distance myself from Togata so that my mind can adjust it's thoughts towards him." She hurried after her friend down the hallway. Students buzzed around them, lively chatter and activity surrounding the pair.

"Wait a minute Jade, I'm not understanding how this is being helpful."

"Ren, the more time I am not near him or able to visibly see him, I'm more than a hundred percent sure that whatever these annoying feelings are will dissipate. When that happens, I can go back to being in the guy's presence without any weird aura surrounding me, but until then, I'm following a strict 'No Togata' routine."

The medic student scoffed in amusement. "Routine? Jade, that's the most ridiculous thing I've heard a UA student say. I say just let it happen and see where it goes from there. Who knows, maybe he possibly could return--"

"Ah--" Jade stopped and held a hand up. "I'm gonna stop you there for two reasons. One, the sole reason anyone should attend this school is to pursue some kind of a career, and this applies especially to me. I was sent here as a representative because UA Los Angeles trusts me to execute and display my skills as a potential Pro Hero, not to go messin' around with Japan's kids, let alone the top students. I have an entire city depending on me, Ren, I can't mess this up." She sighed and took in another breath. "Two, if anything, I am far from his type."

"His type? How can you even know that if you only ever said hi to the guy like, three times?"

"Context clues. If it isn't directly in front of you, look at everything around to find your answer."

Ren deadpanned. "And what exactly did you look at to find your answer?"

"Upbeat, lively girls," Jade replied as if it should've been an obvious answer. The pair entered the cafeteria which was more cramped than usual. Staff members were present, most likely by Nezu's word to have travelling students feel more welcomed. All Might stood among the teachers with a countless number of admirers already circled around him, all different years, sizes and appearances. A certain green haired boy appeared to be of his utmost interest as he practically shouted in the student's face. Ren chuckled at the sight, but she noticed her friend's attention was focused elsewhere.

Her gaze was closed in on a table swallowed by a swarm of students. Some were people from earlier that were practically throwing themselves at Togata, and it seemed no different as he sat at the center of the table enjoying his lunch. Hado was seated across from him, her expression as bright as ever, and beside them was a shaking Amajiki, his head rested against the structure’s surface. His nervous movements ceased, however, and Ren smiled seeing the cyan haired girl had slipped her hand into his, returning to her conversation with ease. Jade also noticed the subtle gesture, but she wouldn't help feeling a pang of annoyance at the audience surrounding the blonde boy. She didn't realize she was watching so intensely until his eyes crossed the room to meet hers. Crap! Immediately Jade looked away, unsure if she was more embarrassed about getting caught or feeling irked over a guy. You're here to represent your school, show your worth of an upcoming Pro Hero. Stop getting distracted! Distance! "Ren, let's get some lunch. I'm sure Tokoyami and the others are awaiting your presence."

"Our presence." Jade smiled as they strode across the cafeteria. The medic always made sure she felt included no matter what the situation was; it eased her thoughts greatly, which was something she needed.

Another month passed and Jade had almost become like a second Maeda, so intently focused during school hours and hero training. Even on off days, the international student went about her own activities, only ever seen for meals or rest. Her bond remained close with Ren, Maeda and Kubo in various ways, however, and she was present whenever a hangout commenced, so it seemed like everything was completely fine. Ren's teasing had become more discreet (much to Jade's relief) and she created a codename for the blonde third year.

"'The lemonade'?" Jade cringed. The two met up for a walk through town one day, and it seemed safe enough to discuss the matter since they weren't near school grounds.

"I think it's pretty subtle, and keeping the word 'the' in the codename would have people assuming we're actually talking about a beverage. Plus," the medic eyed her friend, "the guy is a tall glass of lemonade if I do say so myself, heh."

"Ren don't--"

"Lemonade sounds good right about now." She froze. It took everything in the foreign girl to not begin speed walking as soon as she heard the familiar upbeat voice behind her. From the look on her friend's face, Jade's assumption of Togata's presence was true. Unfortunately true. She slowly turned around, a faux smile in place until her eyes fell upon something hiding behind the male.

It was a little girl, she could tell that much, with long snowy locks spilling from behind Togata's calf. The child peeked up from her spot, red irises meeting Jade's indigo ones. The foreign girl was locked in place as she suddenly recalled her family. She thought of her parents' cooking and singing, her brothers' livelihood for sports, but she was especially reminded of her sister. Youngest and the only other girl in the line of siblings, they did a lot together. From shopping together to painting to singing to sightseeing, Jade realized how much she'd missed them. The exchange of words between Ren and Togata were a muffed noise as she crouched down, entrapped by the little stranger.

"I'm Jade, it's nice to meet you." The words slipped out like butter, and thankfully it didn't seem to frighten or discomfort the child. She looked up to the male for approval, then stepped forward and let his hand go.

"My name is Eri, it's nice to meet you too," she squeaked with a bow. Jade was awestruck by her politeness and shifted onto her knees to bow in return. When they both straightened up, Eri bore a wide smile and returned to Togata's side.

"Gosh, Gemstone, thought you were ignoring me for a sec." Reality hit the foreign girl immediately when she met the blonde's gaze, and her stomach felt tight again. Damn it, not now! Calm down, breathe, breathe, don't overreact. She stumbled getting back on her feet and managed a sheepish expression.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" she apologized more aggressively than she meant to. "I was just so surprised seeing you with a kid, and she just--"

"Oh? Do you think I'm not good with kids?" He raised a brow.

Crap, why does he have to look cute doing that. "I never said that," Jade rolled her eyes. "I was just surprised seeing you outside of your whole entourage, that's all." She cursed at her choice of words. Now I just sound like I'm hating on him.

"My entourage? Sounds like someone's a bit jealous."

"Ha! Boy, ain't nothin' to be jealous of." The second year held her ground as the bulky male challenged her with a smirk. Ren cleared her throat, acknowledging her presence and causing Jade to force herself back. She didn't realize how close she'd gotten to him during their small banter, but it was definitely closer than what she was comfortable with. "Ren, uh, I believe you were talking about something, yes?"

The medic peered over in amusement. "Yeah, I was talking about lemonade, which since you're here Togata with little Eri, I believe we can all get some together." Damn you, Ren!

Eri gasped before tugging on the male's sleeve. "Can we please, Mirio?" The sight made Jade's heart swell, and she couldn't be upset if it was an adorable child asking to accompany them. He beamed down at her and nodded his head.

"Ladies, you may lead the way." During the walk to a mini cafe Ren knew of (thanks to Tokoyami), Jade observed how attentive and caring Togata was with Eri, playing games or cracking jokes that made her laugh. Citizens passing commented on their closeness in adoration, many praising the third year for looking after the child with such passion. Even when there were those who tried to flirt with him, the boy paid them no mind and brushed off their efforts. Jade didn't know him too well, but she knew it would be difficult to want to be away from the guy, especially after seeing this side of him, away from the crowds, away from the hero limelight. Togata truly was someone to admire. A familiar tightness returned to her torso, but for now, she was okay with it.

She was pleased being able spend time with Eri herself, learning more about her likes and hobbies. A lot of what the young girl enjoyed Jade discovered was also liked by her sister. "What's her name?" the child asked, munching on a pastry. The horn atop her head glimmered in the sun while she finished up coloring a drawing.

"Her name is Carolei," the international student smiled, "but my family and I just call her Lei."

Eri dropped her coloring utensil on the table and leaned forward. "Can I call her Lei, too?" Jade looked around as though someone was listening to their conversation, then nodded with a wink, much to the child’s delight. They giggled and chatted, forgetting about time and enjoying getting to know one another. The second year felt as though she wasn't in Japan, but back in America with the people she'd cared about and loved; it felt good to bathe in the comfort and reminisce of home. Someone had gripped the back of Jade’s chair; she turned assuming it was Ren until she was face to face with a broad chest and the strong aroma of musk. Her heartbeat boomed in her head and she slowly turned back to Eri, allowing her nerves to calm. Ren bit back a laugh, but a tug on Jade’s hand distracted her from making a slick comment.

"Jade," said Eri in a small voice, "I have to leave now, but...do you think we can hang out another time?"

A sudden idea popped into the second year's mind at the young girl’s request. With a kind smile, she squeezed Eri's hand reassuringly. "We'll have plenty more days to hang out, hon, just me and you."

"Ouch, and what about me, Gemstone?" Togata whined, a hand on his chest in offense.

"Ah, I'd rather not be attacked by your fangirls. Besides, you have Amajiki and Hado to hang out with, and I know you see Eri almost every day." Both parties waved goodbye before continuing on their own paths. Ren and Jade were in a comfortable silence until the medic let out a sigh.

"You literally just missed your opportunity."

"Girl, what? If anything, I'd say I just opened the door for an opportunity."

"Opportunity for what? You literally shut the guy down."

"With good reason," the foreign student argued. She wasn't rude in her response to the older boy, and it was honest! The last thing Jade needed was rumors tainting her name simply for the fact that she hung out with one of the big three alone, especially if they were of the opposite sex. "Anyways, back to the opportunity I was talking about. I think Eri can help me out with this."

Happy New Years everyone! Thought I would just drop by with this little piece since I have been lagging quite a bit lol, anywho, just a little bit of love for our favorite blonde boy since I don’t see too much on him. Be safe everyone! Like, comment & share!
