Sunlight dances across my bed and gently hit my face, eventually forcing me to open my eyes and look at the alarm clock. 8 am. The nice thing about working at a school was 9 times out of 10 I have off on the weekends which is the best.
Slowly I sat up and rubbed my head, running my fingers through my hair before getting up and changed. I picked the first few things I saw. The outfit I ended up with was a t-shirt with a design on it, and some sweatpants that were better fitting and not loose on me.
I had to get groceries today and pick a few things for the week; there was also a new book that I've been looking forward to buying. I think about my route as I brush my teeth and brush through my hair and loosely put it up into something really easy.
The tiredness in my eyes was still really apparent but that wasn't anything unusual, like most nights I accidentally stayed up reading long after I should've fallen asleep. I figured I'd stop somewhere for breakfast before going shopping, so it was best to put on a light jacket and my shoes and leave early.
I grabbed my keys and locked my door before heading out. It was still a bit chilly out but nothing too crazy. Every day I take a shortcut through a small park, and it was busy with families having fun. It made me smile.
"Hoga?" A voice caught me by surprise as I turned to look at who called. The tall blonde smiled as he put up a hand and waved slightly as a greeting. My face went red when I realized I was wearing such an unattractive outfit.
"Yagi! Hi!" I say, trying to hide the nervousness and embarrassment. "What brings you here?" I ask, giving him a smile.
He seemed to tense up, "Ah, well just taking a walk. I live around here, was just going to go get breakfast." Yagi nodded and scratched his cheek.
I couldn't help but glance at what he was wearing, a baggy shirt and some jeans. It was odd to see him in something so casual since he usually wore business attire at school as I did. It must be weird for each of us. That thought made me less embarrassed.
"I was just going to go get some breakfast too. Care to join me?" I flash him a friendly smile and start walking again so we weren't just standing around.
He started walking with me, "Are you sure? I wouldn't want to be a bother." Although I didn't notice, he had a slight tint across his hollowed cheeks.
"Of course! I don't mind having someone to eat with. It gets lonely when you live alone y'know." I say with a nod and look forward to where we would be walking. What I said was true; living alone for such a long time was hard sometimes. The only friend that comes to visit is Shouta, and even then I never want to bother him, so I don't ask much of him.
Yagi let out a soft laugh, it was almost sad, "Yeah, it does get a bit lonely."
The both of us went to a small local place a sat and talked about how I liked UA and normal things until he seemed to run out of topics that were easy to talk about one into another.
He seemed to think for a second before nodding as he thought of something, "Aizawa has never talked about if you had a quirk. Do you have one?" He asked out of curiosity since that was something unique to each person.
The question made me smile a bit awkwardly, "Ah, well about that. It's not that I'm quirkless…People just view me differently once they know what it is? Does that make sense?" I attempt to explain.
"Don't worry. You don't have to tell me. I want you to be comfortable. I mean I'm not trying to force any answers out of you." He seemed to fumble over his words and it made me smile with a quiet laugh.
"Thanks, Yagi. You are very nice."
We finished up breakfast and I paid for it, much to his protest, but I wouldn't budge.
I stood and looked at him, "I'm going to be going shopping now."
"Do you need any help? I mean I should probably pick up a few things anyway." Yagi said with a slight blush, almost surprised that he had said that.
It did surprise me a bit, "I don't mind." I give him a smile and a laugh. "This is the closest thing to a date I've been on in a while. It's really nice."
He coughs and blood gushes from his mouth, in a panic, I help him wipe it off his mouth.
"Are you sure you are okay?" I ask with concern.
Yagi just seems to laugh slightly, "Let's get going then, Hoga."
