Don't Get Attached

"I'll be as quick as I can." she answered and stretched her arms, before standing up and heading to the bathroom.

"You better." the villain grumbled.

"Love you!" she called from the bathroom. There was no time for a shower, so a quick wash would have to do. She splashed some water in her face and tied her hair up, before quickly throwing some clothes on.

"I love you." Shota said as well but he was sure she didn't hear it.

"What are your plans for the day while I'm at the hospital?" Y/N asked, looking down at the scar from her injury, before letting her shirt fall over it again.

"Don't know. Probably nothing much and stay at the house." he sighed.

"Aw. Poor you. I'll try and be extra fast. Promise." she said, before leaning over him again for a long and gentle kiss.

"Good, maybe I'll reward you during round two." Shota smiled, giving back her kiss quickly before breaking away.

"I can't wait." she replied, before heading out of the bedroom and picking up Mocha who was sitting right in front of the door, screaming his head off, since breakfast was 10 minutes later than usual.

"Ah, Mocha..." Shota sighed as he heard her constant meowing as soon as Y/N opened the door.

"You're hungry, aren't you? Yes, yes, yes, I heard you. Come on, let's get you some food." Y/N cooed, carrying Mocha in her arm and getting some cat food from a shelf. Shota let out a small huff as he rolled over the bed, deciding to sleep a little more. Y/N finished feeding the cat and grabbed her bag from beside the door, before putting on her shoes and a warm coat, as it was getting colder lately. She looked back into the bedroom and smiled, as she saw Shota looking like he was fast asleep again.

"I'll be back soon, Sho." she said quietly, before heading out.

Y/N had gotten out of the hospital early and was quickly on her way back home. She really didn't want Shota to wait longer than he had to. He usually got really grumpy when she kept him waiting for something. Which was mostly because he was excessively worried about her, but for good reason. She did get shot after all and they still hadn't found the guy who had done it.

Y/N yawned and turned into a small alleyway, taking a shortcut home. Sure, this wasn't the best part of town and she really should be on the safe side and follow the main roads, but she really, really wanted to get home quickly. And besides, no one would know she was a hero or anything. After all, she was in her civilian clothes and few people recognized her like that.

Not even after she had managed to get a bit more fame, due to all the operations against this one gang. She still managed to mostly slip under the radar and that was good. It meant no one really knew who she was when she was out with Shota. It was quite relaxing.

Y/N soon came to realize her mistake when she saw two people walking up to her. Normally she wouldn't get nervous about something like that, but they were giving her all kinds of bad vibes. The way they were smirking and staring straight at her...

She glanced over her shoulder and noticed two other men closing in on her. Shit. She was surrounded. She was surrounded and this looked like they had planned it. She felt her heart racing, as she was checking the area for escape routes, any way to get away from them.

Y/N stopped in her tracks, trying to calm her breathing. There was no way out, so she'd have to knock one of them out, at least and make a run for it. Could she use her Quirk in any way?

While she was still thinking of ways to get out of this situation, one of them lunged at her and Y/N just about managed to dodge him, but not the next one who was wrapping his arm around her throat and holding her hands back.
