Your pov.
I woke up and saw that he wasn't laying down anymore. Dang it he still needs a human name, but right now I guess I'll use the childhood name. Now that I think about it, I'm going to regret calling him this.
"Hercules." I said face palming myself.
"You know that he's a Roman God, right?" He asked.
"I know he is, but I just called you to make sure you were still here." I said.
"Oh you missed me." He said teasingly.
"Whatever. I'm going to take a quick shower so we can leave." I said grabbing some clothes.
"Oh really? Where are we going midget." He said.
I grabbed the pillow and threw it at him before answering him.
"We are going to buy some food, and maybe look for an inflatable bed for you." I said as I was walking towards the bathroom. "But do you have any clothes other than the ones you are wearing right now?" I asked.
"You see the thing is I didn't think this far ahead, so I didn't pack any clothes." He replied.
"Of course you didn't. Alright I guess we might actually spend all day out today." I said as I walked into the bathroom, and took a quick shower.
I dried myself and changed into some comfy baggy clothes. I brushed me teeth and my hair. I walked out of the bathroom, and walked to my room quietly seeing 'Hercules' sitting on the floor holding something in his hands. I guess he heard me because he quickly hid it in his pocket. I grabbed a pair of socks and put them on. I grabbed my secret stash of money and walked towards the door with him following me. I put on my shoes and walked out the door.
"Jake." I said.
"Who's Jake?" He asked.
"Do you like that name?" I asked.
"Nope. Come up with a better one that can reach my level of awesomeness." He said
"Achilles?"
"Tendon. So no next."
"Able?"
"No."
"Oh I got it! How about Ace?"
"Ace? See now that one I like." He said and he patted my head. "Nice job midget." He continued as I smacked his hand and he just laughed.
"Okay so I think we should get your clothes first. One because we won't start off with such a heavy load. Then we will grab the food, return home, then we buy the inflatable mattress for you." I said as I looked for the cheapest place to buy clothes.
"Hey lets go in this store." He said as he walked in. I followed him into the store, and he looked around grabbing some clothes. "I'm going to try these on." He said.
"Wait no. That's going to take longer, and that'll mean I'm here all alone." I said whispering for only him to hear.
"Oh relax. Just go grab the food, there was a grocery store not to far from here. Give me some money, and I'll meet you there one I'm done here." He said.
I sighed as I gave him some money.
"Fine, but promise me you'll be over there as fast as possible." I said leaving him to continue his shopping.
I walked into the grocery store two stores down from the store Ace was in. I grabbed a basket on my way in, and went to look at the fruits and vegetables first. As I saw a certain spice I could use, but it was at the top of the shelf. I tried going on my tippy toes to reach it, but couldn't. I saw someone grab the spice and handed it to me.
"Thank you." I said. I looked at the person carefully and noticed it was Kacchan.
"Yo, you got the ramen?" I looked behind and saw all the guys in the class.
"Oh it's y/n!" Kirishima shouted.
I just waved and I put the spice in the basket.
"We we're just going to hang out. Wanna come with?" Kirishima asked.
"Umm... well you see-" I said but was quickly cut off by a familiar voice.
"Ah there's my mighty midget!" I heard Ace say as he smiled, and put his arm around my shoulder. "Oh, who are they?" He asked as he looked at the guys curiously.
"The important question here is, who are you?" Kaminari asked.
"Oh, well I'm Ace. I'm her one and only childhood friend." Ace said proudly.
"Ace these guys are all in my class. They are my friends." I said.
"You know a formal introduction of each person would be nice." Ace said.
"If you're her childhood friend then, how come she's never mentioned you?" Kacchan asked as he stared at Ace.
"Maybe because she hasn't seen me in such a long time. She even gave me the nickname Hercules. And in case you don't know who that is he's a god, so she thought of me as strong, and handsome." Ace said.
It was just an intense staring contest between Ace and Kacchan. I stood in front of Kacchan, and waved my arms in front of his face.
"Well me and Ace need to get going. But I'll text you guys later." I said. I waved them goodbye as I kicked Ace.
"Hey!" He shouted.
"I said let's go." I said as we walked to the cash register. We paid and walked out of the store. When we walked out of the store we we're on our way home.
"Well hey there stranger!" I heard a familiar female voice say. I turned around seeing my aunts friend. Ace stood in close to me, so she can know he was with me. "So about the job offer. Have you thought about it?" She asked.
"Actually I kind of have." I said. "Auntie didn't like what I did, but I need the money." I continued as I looked at Ace and back at her.
"Well we can have can be there as well. If you want we can offer him a job." She said and looked at Ace. "I can already tell you are protective of her, and I'll make sure she is as well. But if you like to make sure yourself you can work there as well." She held out her hand with a smile.
I shook her hand and Ace did as well after me.
"Well better get going." I said.
"Oh of course! I'll check up on you again when we need you." She said and simply vanished again.
Ace and I continued our walk home.
"Who was she?" He asked.
"One of aunties friends that owns a couple clubs." I replied.
"And she's dead set on having you work there? Why?" He asked.
"I use to work for her as a singer and waitress when auntie was having trouble with jobs." I replied. "I scared some people, but many complemented me. Next thing I know people were booking the place, and having me as one of the performers. I got really good money, although auntie didn't like it." I continued.
"Ah, so there were many perverts? Don't worry I'll make sure none of them disrespect you." He said.
"Well kind of many weren't able to disrespect me, and she made sure of it. Around the time I started working there though, auntie would drink. She was able to get help, but I'm not even sure where she is right now. She left me the first day of school, and hasn't contacted me since. She left me a letter saying she's attending the funeral of the lady who rejected me." I said.
"Oh really? Dang I'm sorry." He said.
"There's no need to be sorry. And you know it." I said. We walked inside the house and he helped me put the food away.
"Actually, how is it that you seemed different around your new friends, but seem a bit emotionless with me. It seems as if you have some sort of plan, are you planning on dominating the world?" He asked.
"It's better being alone. You better than anyone know about my 'double' life." I said as I put some things in the fridge.
"So you don't even know which is the real you?" He asked.
"Nope." I said. My phone buzzed and I saw a message from Kirishima.
Kirishima: Hey, you okay?
Y/n: Yeah I'm fine. I hope you guys are all having fun. :)
Kirishima: I mean the girls were invited last minute, and they all asked for you.
Y/n: sorry I couldn't hang out with you guys. But I'm busy at the moment. I'll see you all at school.
Kirishima: Alright be safe.
"Who were you texting?" He asked.
"My friend Kirishima, he's one of my close friends." I said with a small soft smile.
"Oh! Is that a smile I see?!" He shouted.
"What? No way." I said as I shook my head. I can't get attached to others, they will only hurt me.
