Chapter 85

"How was it?"

Julia asked me as she raised an eyebrow as soon as I got inside the house, after a hug and playing with my cheeks.

I went to the sofa and relaxed my back. Then I let a deep sigh. Since it's obvious that she's expecting that I may say good grief or 'what a pain' I decided to be direct.

"Not so good."

She flinched all of the sudden.

"How… did something disturb you, was it Endeavour." She put her hands on her h.i.p.s and raised an eyebrow, while looking directly at my eyes, acting like a lie detector. Weird, why would she be concerned about that, and look like she may want to kill the latter.

"Nothing at all…"

I relaxed a bit. I wanted to rest, although I wasn't tired. It was night, and I wasn't so sleepy. You know the extra thing you get from taking someone's life power is the ability to stay awake for longer.

"It's just when the vacation ends and I think school tomorrow, I think about skipping it. Hey, could you make me an excuse to skip it?" Well, Yu had asked me for a date finally, and I'll have to meet Itsuka tomorrow.

"Hahaha…" Julia chuckled, "not a chance."

"Good Grief."

After everything was over, I changed my wear, kissed her cheek, and went to my bedroom. Ah, the modern lifestyle. The soft bed. This was the type of things you won't find at Todoroki's house.

The next day arrived and the school started again. My first idea, waking at 07:00, was to continue sleeping. But Julia got annoying enough to prepare breakfast and keep bragging. Although I didn't want to go to school, I made Star Platinum carry me, dress me, then he took me to the car, and drove to the school.

And so, once I entered the U.A, most eyes were on me, from each class, and each window. Well, I made a name for myself for beating the shit out of Stain, so it's understandable. Although, this didn't happen when I dealt with Sludge Villain.

I entered through the class's door and Itsuka was the first one to greet me with a slap on my back. Every eye was on me even here. Then each looked in their direction.

"Well, Lee." Itsuka said, "While I was marketing, you were having adventures in the street. Couldn't you invite me? So selfish." She then raised her eyebrow and made a cute expression. I just rubbed her cheek. It had been a long time since we were separate like in this vacation – which wasn't a vacation at all.

"Yeah, I missed you too," I said directly.

"Straight to the point." Her poker face gave up and she smiled, "Happy you got it fine."

I got a slight hug from her before turning to the rest of my classmates. I started to feel refreshing. Monoma started to act annoying, with his smiling greeting creepy face as he patted my back over and over, until I told him, "Give up, you can't copy my Quirk, or use it."

He harrumphed, "I must try to. I am the thief hero after all. I must steal all."

"Keep dreaming."

When I saw Itsuka going to chop on his neck, I stopped her and said, "Leave this to me." Then I chopped on him and he fell, unconscious.

"Ops," I said, not aware that I used too much power than he can handle.

"You used too much strength." Itsuka put her hands on her mouth.

"Let's just say he's sick." After the stand put Neito in his place, making him look like he was sleeping, I had a chat with the rest, as most seemed to be interested in Stain and his battle, especially the guys.

Ibara gave me a Voodoo doll and told me to keep it, as it's a lucky charm. That's very like her, as she believes in those things. I only thanked her and threw it at the pack.

Pony then came and chatted with me a bit, and said that I was cool on the video of the stain, and she found my line funny… but she also wondered how I could move so fast in the video.

That was some hard question, wasn't it? I patted the hair of the short girl, messed with it, and told her that maybe one day she would know.

When I took my place, Reiko was there, directly asking. "How was it?"

"What?" I asked as I sat.

"Fighting with a serial killer," her voice was quiet, as always. I almost forgot it when the vacation separates between us.

"Nothing special."

"Mm," she nodded and swept her hair from her face, "you aren't very lucky, are you."

"Maybe."

My luck wasn't at its best. Villains can come to me as much as they want, as I have been training the time stop for the whole vacation. The only thing I find misfortune is the romance around, giving how my romantic relationsh.i.p.s were going between me and Itsuka and Mount Lady… not to mention that Reiko kissed me as well, before 'Fainting,' as she says.

"If you need anything, just tell me." She offered.

Then there was a silent, and I had a slight nod. Why did hear her saying 'I'd be available if things went in disaster direction.' But I know that Reiko doesn't like to form sentences like that…Am I nervous about some clash with my date with Yu, as I had decided to be honest with her. Anyway, I had decided, in the worst-case scenario, I'll stop the time and use Joseph's secret technique.

After the regular classes had ended, I moved to the heroic class, outside, in the false city, under All Might, whom I didn't see for a quiet time now.

As it seemed, after I had healed him, he looked full of vitality. Well, he always looks like that. But I had heard that he lowered the crime level in this city a lot after regaining his health. When he glanced at me, as we were at the false city for some sort of training, he gave me a thumb and smiled. I waved my hand at him and faced him with my back, before having the rescue class, which passed so easy for me.

Once the others kept practising, I grabbed Itsuka from the hand, took her to a private corner, where no one can see us, and I kissed her. I had used some Hamon, just so she would enjoy it and kiss me long enough, so I relief some stress.

*Muah* *Slurp*

After a few minutes, our lips separate, and I just kept staring at her.

"Lee is there anything," she asked with her cheeks flushing red and some saliva next to her bottom lip. I swept that spot and told her, "How about we meet after school."

"Right, it'd been some time…"

She lowered her head, kicked with her foot, and nodded, "Sure… where do you want to go."

"Somewhere nice, to have a date."

"Mmmm… but Lee, is there something bothering you."

"No, why are you asking."

"You were quiet the whole day."

"I'm always quiet."

"You didn't say, Good Grief."

"I did."

"When?

"When I woke up." I shook my head, and then decided to ask, "You're acting weird, aren't you."

I could see that in her face, as it was quite pale, which lead me to think that she may be sick, or overthinking about something. I was seriously concerned about this.

"How weird?" she raised an eyebrow and placed a hand on her hip.

"You seems to be overthinking."

She just waved her hand. "It has just been two weeks since we had it. And knowing your monstrous Stamina, I was concerned about you. And I just missed you."

I flicked her forehead. "You don't have to worry about that. "

Itsuka stood up on her toe, gave me a kiss, and said, "Don't worry. I'll drain you later."

"Ha~" I sighed. "If you bet money on that each time we had s.e.x, I would buy another car by now."

"Tsk Tsk." She clicked her tongue twice. "Like you want to deceive me to bet."

"Maybe?" I scratched my chin.

"Not gonna fall for that."

"Oy, Kiddos… Do you want to fail the class? Get over here." All Might's voice was heard, and I figured that he was talking to us.

"Well… We'll talk later." She gave me a look before running to the training centre.

"Sure."
