TODOROKI
I get to the coffee shop picking a table in the corner where I know I can plug up my laptop. I get set up drinking my coffee and find that I can breathe a lot easier here making me feel happy I can finally focus enough to get some work done. I'm halfway through my classwork when I feel someone walking towards me. I look up and it's Iida. He is smiling and waving.
"Hey, how's it going?" he asked.
"Fine," I replied. "You?" Iida hasn't changed much since high school. He still wears his polo shirts and jeans a lot. I personally think it makes him look younger than he really is. He still wears his glasses and his hair with a little gel, not a lot but enough where his hair is under control.
"Same," he replies before getting quiet. I can see him fidgeting and he smells of nervousness. I figure that he knows what happened between Midoriya and I. I'm not going to bring it up though. "Uh, so you never met Midoriya until yesterday?"
"Nope," I said looking back at my computer. "Not face to face at least."
"Yeah," says Iida. "He's a great guy." I just continue looking at my computer screen trying to keep my scent in check. I want nothing but to be in his arms again, have him underneath me, begging for me to bond him. "He's home right now you know."
"Why would I need to know that?" I asked looking up at him. I had to hold back a growl of pleasure as my inner alpha is wanting me to visit the green-eyed omega.
"You still have his clothes," says Iida.
"Oh," I reply. "I will take them to him when I'm done studying."
"Great," grins Iida. "Thanks for what you did." I know exactly what he is referring to. I'm surprised that Midoriya told Iida what happened. All I can think is those guys are lucky I didn't kill them. I hope Midoriya decides to report them. They're very dangerous indeed and something tells me we haven't seen the last of them. I think I will look into those guys and see what I can find out.
"No problem at all," I replied. "I was in the right place at the right time. How is he doing?" Iida sighs.
"Trying to act like what happened was not a big deal," explains Iida. "I can tell he is shaken a little but the little guy puts up a good front." I nod my head, yes finding that very believable. Midoriya comes across as a strong hero but he also seems more emotional and compassionate compared to most.
"I didn't know you were so close to him," I state. I'm having to clam down my alpha not liking the idea Iida is so close to Midoriya. It's not like they dated, they are just roommates, Iida is a beta but my alpha still feels on edge.
"Yeah," says Iida. "I can't discuss how we met but he actually saved my life believe it or not." I think I know what he is talking about but I don't push on the issue. "Well, I'm about to go grab me a coffee before I head to work."
"Mid shift?" I ask.
"Yup," he replies. "I'm just glad it's not the night shift. I'll see you around." I nod and Iida walks up to the counter to place his order. I look back at my screen reading over my notes. I wonder what is Midoriya doing right now? Would he bad mad if I showed up? I don't have his number or anyway of reaching him. Just thinking about him makes me tingle.
My attention is toast after that conversation with Iida. I'm glad Iida left leaving me to feel less embarrassed about this. Midoriya has me so flustered. I get packed up heading towards his apartment. For some strange reason the closer I get the more nervous I become. I pull up parking on the curb instead of in the parking lot. I grab the bag from the backseat with his clothes in it. I make my up to the 3rd floor walking for good exercise instead of using the elevator. Once at the front door it's like I'm afraid to even knock. I eventually find my nerve knocking loudly. It doesn't take long for him to open the door.
