CHAPTER START---

---Horizon Tower...

7 AM, four hours after he went to bed, Law was still asleep.

Something that hasn't happened since he integrated Energy Saver into Hand of God. But after yesterday and the new breakthrough made, albeit he can't really recall any of it or repeat it, his body and mind still feel the exhaustion.

In fact, he still felt sore even after his body's automatic healing took effect.

Something he was reminded of as he rolled onto his side, and bumped into a smaller, softer, warm body.

His eyes immediately shot open, seeing nothing in the absolute darkness of his room, but he didn't even activate his Quirk, as there was only one person it could possible be.

So he simply wrapped his arms around Ryuko, and pulled her against him.

He was only wearing a pair of boxers, and she wore just a t-shirt and her underwear, which usually led to more than just sleeping.

But right now he was too tired and sore for even his horny 16 year old brain to think of anything else.

---1 Hour Later...

Once again Law wakes up, opening his eyes to see only darkness. There was absolutely no light in his room, allowing him to sleep perfectly comfortable beside Ryuko whenever he wants. And most of the time he never even uses the lights in here even when she isn't here, simply because he's so used to just using Scan to move around.

He opens a Room, sensing her on the couch in the living room, laying down but scrolling through her phone.

Something she couldn't do here since his visor wasn't on, and even if he was sleeping too heavily to know, she wouldn't risk seeing his face.

SHAMBLES!

In an instant not only was she warped into the bed beside him, but his body glove was warped onto himself, with the visor.

"Good morning to you too," Ryuko says as she gets comfortable in bed, leaning back against the headboard as he remains laid out beside her.

"Mhm..."

"Still tired? I'm surprised you slept more than one hour."

"Mhm, it was a long night."

"I figured as much," Ryuko says, still scrolling through her phone.

"Why are you here?" Horizon asks.

And fortunately she's been with him long enough to know he really just means 'why didn't you tell me you were coming over?'.

"Because you had a rough day yesterday, either you got hurt, or something didn't go as planned."

"Didn't you hear the news? Everything went perfectly to plan, and I didn't even get scratched, as usual, a flawless victory for Horizon."

"Yes, I saw the news, but I also know you, better than most," Ryuko says. "So I know if you aren't in front of a camera acting humble while subtly bragging, then something went wrong and you aren't proud of the results enough to speak about it, so, are you alright?"

"Tired," was all he said, tilting his head slightly to see her looking down toward him with concern in her eyes.

"Physically, emotionally, or mentally?"

"Yes," Horizon says.

"What are you making?" Horizon asks as he takes a seat at the counter.

"Omelet rolls and some rice, want anything special? I hope you have time to eat before something happens and you have to rush off."

"Well, that sounds perfect," Horizon begins scrolling through his phone to see everything he missed while sleeping. "And as for leaving, today I'll be staying in the tower. Still sore and really not in the mood to be running about Tokyo yet, so how about we just relax here today?"

While cooking Ryuko looks back, seeing him at the counter and smiles mischievously, "its been a while since we've had to building to ourselves, not that I don't like your teammates."

"I know exactly what you mean, and how about after breakfast we go check out some of the Black Market Raid loot downstairs?" Horizon asks. "Its well over a billion in art and all kinds of stuff, could be something cool down there."

"Awe, are you asking me on a museum date?"

"Don't make me retract the offer..."

"Don't be so dramatic, and yeah checking out that stuff sounds fun. Especially since its even more fun because I'm not supposed to know about it."

"Lots of things are more fun because you aren't supposed to do them," Horizon says as he responds to a few messages on the Hero Network.

"Did you enjoy the Culture Festival?" She asks. "Before you had to leave that is."

"Did I enjoy keeping track of that many people all at once for hours? Not particularly. But I saw you, Kota, and Eri having fun and the stalls, especially the cotton candy stall."

"Yeah, Kota loves that stuff, and those two got along great which is a big relief."

"Was managing them with all the crowds easy?"

"Surprisingly yeah, they're both pretty obedient, well at least Kota is now. He's trying to be more like his hero, Deku."

"Oh right, he saw Deku fighting during the summer camp huh, and how was Eri with the crowds."

"Very nervous at first, but I showed her that you were up on the roof and she calmed down, that kid trusts you a lot. And I'll admit I was a lot more relaxed since you were up there."

"Well I did save her from Overhaul, and as far as she knows he's locked up in prison and will never bother her again."

"Well at least the part about him never bothering her again is true," Ryuko says as she starts dishing out the food. "I saw a interesting picture of you from the Culture Festival."

"Oh, and what's that?" Horizon asks as they take their food to the living room, to have breakfast on the couch.

"A certain picture of you, and a mini Horizon," Ryuko says in an excited tone, and as they sat on the couch he could already tell where this is going. "Did you do that on purpose? It was so cute how you gave him the card, and what you said too, made my heart feel like it would explode."

"Why would I want to ramp up your baby fever on purpose? Its already nuclear," he says as they start eating.

Ryuko narrows her eyes at him, "its not that bad."

"Babe, if I didn't have perfect control of what my body does, I'd never have sex with you. You're the type of psycho who'd poke holes in condoms, swap her pills for candy, or just wrap her legs around me, no thanks."

Ryuko scoffs and begins angrily eating her breakfast, "its not like I'd do that for anyone else. If anything its your fault for being...well, you."

"You're saying I'm special?"

"I'm saying, that I expected to get married and start a family with some white knight who treats me like a queen while acting like a proper gentleman...but instead I'm here hopelessly in love with a man who has caught the eye of at least half the women in the world, and he's seemingly hell bent on sleeping with all of them."

It takes Ryuko a moment to process exactly what she said during that rant, and after she does she just begins eating, looking down at her plate trying to act like that didn't just happen.

"So, hopelessly in love with me huh," without looking up or even being able to see his face, she could just tell he was grinning victoriously beneath that mask.

Ryuko once again wishes she had the power to reverse time, even if its only by a few seconds.

Because there are few things worse than having to deal with Horizon after giving him a compliment, especially one of this caliber...
