I was woken up by someone shaking my left hand while my right hand was having muscle spasms. I slowly opened my eyes and sat up as I tried to fix my glasses with my twitching fingers. The person who was moving my left hand let go, which I then remembered where I was. I tried to smile as I looked to Eri with tired eyes. I put my right hand under my leg so I could hide it.

"Are you alright?" Eri asked in a quiet tone.

I kept up the smile, "Of course I am."

"It's just...your hand..." she started.

"It's nothing." I said.

"But...it was moving weirdly." she said in a concerned and still quiet tone.

"That's because it grew back and now the muscles are growing in. It only lasts for a little while, nothing too bad." I replied.

She was quiet for a little while before saying timidly, "It's my fault you lost your arm and caused you pain."

My heart sank, "No, not at all. I should have been more careful and watched what I was doing."

"But you and the others were hurt..."

"That doesn't matter as long as you are safe." I said. She picked up the rabbit that I generated earlier in the morning and held it tight. I stood up and stretched as she watched. "I'm going to have to head back now. Is that alright?"

She was reluctant to reply, but she said, "Yeah...but please come back soon." She paused as she hugged the bunny tighter. "I don't want to be alone." she added in a near whisper.

I put my left hand on top of her head as I said with a smile, "I promise." I then removed my hand and walked to the door. Once I opened it, I stopped to turn around and wave, "See ya later." Which she then waved back. I turned around again and left the room, closing the door behind me.

Once I was in the hallway and saw that no one was in the hall with me or within the distance that they'd be able to see me, I teleported back to the apartment. When I arrived, I was at the door, which I then took off my shoes and was just about to begin up the stairs. Before I could make it to the first step, Yamada stopped me.

"Where were you? Hmm? Out partying?" Yamada asked in a skeptical tone.

I scoffed and went with it, "Yeah, it was a pretty wild party. I woke up on someone's roof not too long ago."

He laughed before saying, "You shouldn't be sleeping on roofs, you could catch a cold."

"What do you mean catch a cold? I am the cold." I said before doing a clearly fake sneeze.

He laughed again, "You also gotta be careful about those boys at parties, you have to watch out for those quiet ones."

Aizawa sat up on the sofa and looked towards my direction, "No, you have to watch out for the loud ones who won't shut up."

"Hey!" Yamada said as he turned towards the sofa.

I gave a chuckle and shook my head as I walked up the stairs. Once I got to the railing outside of my room, Aizawa asked, "Hey Y/N, how did it go with Eri? I'm surprised you got back just now."

"I know, so am I. Well, once I got her calmed down I was going to leave, but she didn't want me to, so I ended up falling asleep as I held her hand cause she asked me to." I sighed before adding, "She'll need a lot of time to adjust living here. I have a feeling she won't leave my side, which I honestly may dread, but I don't care I guess as long as she's alright."

He too sighed, "Yeah...it will take some time."

I paused for a few seconds before saying, "I'm going to sleep, wake me if something drastic happens."
