PAUSE! [MHA x OP!Reader]

29. Hello again

"Look Doshi, I fixed a date for you!" I said, not even bothering to conceal my snicker.

"You sneaky... sly... evil... annoying... N/n. I love- hate you!"

I ignored Doshi's curses as we walked to the park. Despite her curses, sour expressions, and aggressive movements, she had intentionally lowered her presence to what would be a bearable level for a human like Mitama, and her thoughts constantly betrayed her. She knew that, and constantly tried to convince herself she was just being kind. Though honestly, that was so out of character that it wasn't even different-

"Shut up and stop thinking stupid things, N/n. I do not have a crush!"

I rolled my eyes as I continued walking, almost at the meeting spot. I let my gaze wander through the park until my eyes landed on the familiar blue-haired boy. I waved at him, Doshi going silent in an instant. The boy waved with a slightly anxious smile as we walked up to the picnic bench he was sitting at, and I could feel Doshi's heartbeat increase slightly, causing me to chuckle quietly.

"Hello." I said and sat down, quite unsure of what to say in this situation.

"Oh, um... hello..." He said, his gaze immediately going to Doshi.

I looked at Doshi, but of course she stayed quiet, refusing to look at him, resulting in an awkward silence. What an amazing start.

Doshi was floating beside me with crossed arms and facing the side with a grumpy expression, while Mitama kept staring at her, and I just sat there, my gaze going back and forth between them. After a few awkward moments of silence, I cleared my throat and decided to break the silence.

"So... I guess you have... a lot of questions?"

Mitama snapped out of it and looked at me instead.

"O-oh yeah! So... well, I guess my first question is... why is she here? In... this area... city... I mean..." He said, and I didn't fail to notice the hint of suspicion in his eyes.

I thought for a moment before answering, not wanting to actually disclose anything important while still trying to come up with a believable excuse. After all, you never knew who you could trust.

"She is my friend. She followed me here." I said, only taking bits of the truth. I continued, since I wanted to avoid as many questions as possible. "I moved back to Japan recently to try out for U.A. High."

His eyes widened.

"U.A.?! Really? Did you get in?"

I chuckled at how easy it was to avert his focus from the main topic.

"Yeah, I got in. Does that answer your question?"

He pondered for a moment, looking back at the still silent Doshi for a moment in thought.

"Well... so... she is foreign?" He seemed to start believing the reason he didn't know about her was that she wasn't from here, and due to last time, I doubted he wanted to ask any more questions about her background.

"Yeah." I answered confidently.

He stayed silent for a moment before speaking up again.

"So... your quirk... it can't be... like mine, right? I mean, if you got into U.A. with it?" When he asked, he seemed in thought, and kept glancing at Doshi. I got it, a quirk like his, or ours, didn't really help in combat.

"To be honest... Your quirk is probably almost the same as mine, but I have two."

His eyes widened once again, probably since having multiple quirks was incredibly rare here on Earth.

"You have two?!" He exclaimed in disbelief.

"Yeah, my other quirk is my official one. No one knows about... the one that's like yours."

"Oh... wow..."

Before I knew it, he was glancing back at Doshi again, a bit uneasy. "She doesn't like me, does she?" He drooped slightly, and I almost snorted.

'You couldn't be more far off, she has a huuge crush-'

"I DON'T!" Doshi exclaimed loudly and it was a miracle that I could hold back my laugh. Mitama flinched. To him, who couldn't read my thoughts, it obviously seemed like she had responded to his question, and he got visibly gloomy.

'Man, you made him sad, Doshi. You are so bad at this.'

"I don't care!" She thought to me, although I could feel her rare feeling of faint worry.

Fun fact of the day: Dosheeza is a tsundere.

A/n-

Hello again!

Hehe... I know. It took a while. Buuut here I am again! I know I said more vigilante content next time, but I realized I kinda forgot about this guy. So... here is the end of the sleepover arc and a little in between before the vigilante content and later the sports festivals!

Also- back to school now, yay...

All in all, thank you all for hanging on! I get really happy whenever you comment how much you like the story, and it motivates me to pick up the damn writing for once again. And if you ask me for when the next update will be....

Well. I really don't think it'll take as long as this one, at least. Also, noticed I made the title of the chapter match with the first phrase of the a/n? Hehe... I thought it was a bit funny...

Well, cya!

(Soon, I hope! :D)
