Let Me Warm Up To You (Mirio Togata x reader)

{34} Misconception

♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧

It's been 2 days. 2 days and you've heard nothing from U.A.

Slowly but surely you started to remember events as well. The hero rankings would begin in a few days and Endeavour would be ranked as the number 1 hero officially. You had a feeling something important was going to happen afterwards and you were terrified of finding out. Not wanting to give the League any kind of lead against the heroes.

You continued to bounce a small ball against the walls. The league surprisingly didn't do anything to you. Only interacting when Dabi brought you food and interrogated you on what you remembered. You shuddered at the memory of when he first came. He was more sinister than they had depicted him as in the anime. All those evil bad boys are really something else when you meet them in person. Spinner wanted nothing to do with you, you barely ever saw Tomura and Lyle was really the only nice one.

You still couldn't wrap your head around him having a twin. He told you that he would explain everything soon, but you were starting to wonder what his description of "soon" was.

The door to your room creaked open again. You tensed as you waited for whose head would pop in, but eased up once Lyle came through.

"I have your lunch~" He handed you your meal.

"Thanks." You smiled. Graciously taking it from him. As much as he was being nice to you, you still couldn't completely trust him. Afterall he wasn't really helping you leave this place.

"How're you feeling?" He asked. His genuine concern was easy to notice.

"I'm alright, I guess." You replied nonchalantly. The only thoughts that were really going through your head was how to get back, more especially what was even happening back at U.A without you there. You knew Himiko's character was very impulsive. Her entire story was centured around freedom and doing what she wanted, so you couldn't believe that everyone would fall for her fake facade.

"(Y/N)?" Lyle called your name again. It was faintly heard on your side. Only replying with a 'hmm' as you looked at him. He chuckled at your distant gaze before speaking.

"Are you ready to hear my explanation?" His words easily caught your curiosity.

"Really?!" You asked. Paying attention to his next few words very closely.

"Really," He gestured to your meal, "but I suggest you eat first before I tell you anything."

You nodded. Grabbing your plate and munching away on the food, that was ofcourse heavenly.

"I guess I should start with why you're here." He began. You were focused by his words. Mouth full of food as you listened.

"My quirk is time manipulation."

"Time?" You paused. Was his quirk similar to Sir Nighteyes?

"Yes. Some have said it's quite a ridiculous power, but I've kept it under wraps for the most part. I can bend time around me. Freeze it, slow it down, go forward or even back, but I like to steer clear from the past."

"W-woah! That's such a crazy power!" You gasped. Still munching on your food while your eyes remained wide.
Lyle chuckled, but then became serious.

"It is, but my brothers is more powerful. He can actually bend time so much that he can travel between different dimensions."

"What!?" You stopped eating at this point. "So does that mean there really is a multiverse!?"

Lyle nodded, but he didn't seem too fond of the idea as his gaze became low and dark.
