I woke up the next morning to find a note on top of my phone that was lying on the floor. I put on my glasses before I rolled over to pick my phone up and the note at the same time. Once my eyes adjusted to the sunlight, I read the note.


Since it's a Monday, I work at UA today...and all week. I won't be doing any patrols this week after work, or any really at all until you two come out of the quirks' effects. Be safe so you two don't burn down the apartment somehow. If you two decide to throw a party, the same rule applies.

-Yamada


I folded up the note before putting it into the pocket of my hoodie and laying there on my back, staring at the ceiling as I conjured up enough motivation to get off of the couch. I eventually achieved that goal and pushed my feet over the side of the sofa and stood up. I stretched as I listened to my back popping and cracking, making it sound like it was broken. I then put my phone in my pocket too before I began for the bathroom to get the day started. Once I was done in there, I walked out of my room just as Aizawa was going to walk in. I bumped into him and fell to the ground. I looked up to him and realized that he was a little taller than what he was the previous days.

"You've grown." I said as I looked up to him.

He put his hand out to help me up, "Have I?" I nodded my head as he pulled me up to my feet. "I haven't noticed." he said before asking, "Would it be alright if I use your bathroom."

I stepped off to the side, "Sure, I don't care." He then walked past me as I remembered to ask, "Oh, since it's a little past eleven, do you want me to make lunch or something?"

"It's up to you I guess. Anything you make is really good, so I don't care." he said as he shrugged his shoulders.

"I haven't made anything while you've been here, so how do you know that?" I asked.

He thought about it before saying, "I don't know, I just do."

I hummed and said, "Our memories might be coming back now."

"I hope so." he said before he walked into the bathroom and closed the door behind him.

As I walked down to the kitchen, I thought about what I was to make. I wanted to make something simple and quick, but I also wanted to make something that I knew he would like in an attempt to make it up to him from the day before. I scrounge around in the fridge and cupboards until I figured out what I could make. Though the ingredients weren't all there and what I was planning would be a little bigger, so we'd have to wait until Yamada got back, I settled with making beef hot pot. Not only is it mine and Aizawa's favorite, but it also would work great since it was still freezing cold out.

I went back up to my room to grab money, but upon the emptiness of my room, I remembered that I didn't have any money with me. Though I didn't like to do it, I generated money out of my hand and shoved it in my pocket. Just as I was going to leave my room, I heard the bathroom door open. I turned around and asked, "Hey, do you wanna come with? I'm going to head to the store to pick up stuff for dinner. We could probably stop at the mall beforehand if you want."

He continued walking towards me as he asked in return, "I thought that we were going to have lunch?"

"That's what I was planning, but what I want to make would be better if there were more than two people, and plus, I think that Yamada would enjoy it too when it's hot." I explained as I walked out of the doorway.

"What are we having?" he asked as he too left my room.

We began for the staircase as I said with a smirk, "It's a surprise." He hummed as if he didn't want to wait to find out, but he let it be. I stopped at the door to put on boots and said, "We could always find something at the mall food court."
