PAUSE! [MHA x OP!Reader]

29. Hello again

The three boys lit up and said they did as they started to sit down, like children waiting to be served food. I chuckled at the thought.

"Is no one gonna go wake Mina up?" I asked, not wanting to do it myself. I had a gut feeling it wouldn't be a pretty sight...

Sero immediately seemed to catch onto my reaction and reluctance to wake her up and spoke up first.

"Not me, at least."

In the end, Kirishima ended up going. We heard screams from upstairs but tried to pay them no mind.

Soon enough, a groggy and tired Mina, as well as pouting Kirishima, came to the kitchen while we other three were already eating.

"You okay, Kirishima?" I asked.

"I'm... fine." He winced as he sat down.

"I'm glad I didn't go..." Sero mumbled beside me.

"Good morning!" Denki exclaimed to Mina.

"Shut up." Mina said groggily and glared at him while taking her food.

Denki smirked.

"I see someone's a little grumpy... What got you in such a sour-"

That morning, we all learned that Mina was not a morning person.

Once again, Sero quietly thanked god that he had kept his mouth shut.

The rest of the morning until dinner went by as normal. We did what we had planned to do and trained together, without the robots this time. We also didn't use the elevator again and just stayed at the outdoor gym. We worked out, sparred a bit, and gave each other tips about our techniques. Sero also got a couple of interrogating messages from Todoroki and freaked out a bit while Mina tried to act innocent. When it was almost time for dinner, they decided to go back home. All in all, we had a great time. I was happy. It had been... really fun, actually.

Right as I had said goodbye and closed the door, I got a message.

---Mitama's POV (moments earlier)---

I was laying down in bed, anxious. Ever since that day, I had been thinking about that demon-not-demon non-stop. Sure, I now knew the reason all the spirits were gone... that she was here, but nothing more than that. The worst? They hadn't even bothered to contact me once. I swear if they forgot about me...

Nah, I wouldn't even be able to do anything. I shuddered as I thought back to that heavy presence and piercing glare. She was terrifying. But... I couldn't deny I wanted to know more about her... Like, why was she here? Why did she hang around the human girl... Oh, and the human girl too.
