You guys finally got to the aquarium, Aizawa paid for you tickets but he let you wonder around.

"Why here?" He asked.

It wasn't that he didn't like it, it was strange peaceful, and it was quiet.

"I find them calming, I like to come here when I'm stressed and such to calm down. Plus I thought it would be a nice place to visit."

You walked over to the glass and stood water the fish.

Aizawa stood next to you, his hands in his pockets as he watched you. You were simply watching the creatures in the water, a soft smile on your lips.

He turned around and walked over to a different one, kneeling down, he watched the small fish swim about in peace with larger ones.

He never heard you come over, pulling out your phone you quietly snapped a picture with, then sent it.

His phone pinged, in confusion he looked it at. It was him, where he was right now. Looking through the glass while some colourful fish swam on the other side.

He didn't say anything, he slipped his phone back into his pocket, standing up, he took your phone, turning it around he snapped a picture of you, then he sent it to himself and handed the phone back.

"Hey! You could've just used your phone!" You huffed.

He gave you a soft smile and shrugged his shoulders at you.

"Yeah, but that's no fun."

With that, he walked away while you chased after him.

"Hey! Did you smile?"

"No." He said still smiling.

"You're smiling!"

You beamed brightly, skipping in front of him, you quickly stole another picture of him smiling with a teasing grin.

"This is so going to be held over you."

He rolled his eyes, heading over to the large tunnel what was purely see through.

You walked in, looking around with amazement in your eyes.

While you spun around, trying to take everything in, Aizawa watched you, it reminded him of the old you.

He quickly turned away, not wanting to be caught looking at you and focused on the floor instead.

This is what it felt constantly, like he was standing on glass, nothing but emptiness below him. Water.

You were the glass, and when you left it broke, but when you came back, you slowly pulled him back up without realising, but if he made the wrong move again, it would break once more, and this time there wouldn't be anyone to save him from drowning.

"Aizawa... Aizawa!"

He snapped out of his thought, you were crouched in front of him, looking up at him.

"Sorry." He replied.

"It's okay."

You stood up, only a few inches from him. He wanted to reach out, to touch you. So he did, slowly his hand came to rest on your cheek, you stood there frozen.

"A.. Aizawa...?"

"Shota." He said, "I like it when you call me Shota."

You didn't reply, instead you stumbled back a few steps, leaving his grasp and at that moment he knew he messed up.

"I.. I don't know what game your playing but it isn't funny..." you mumbled, "I don't like getting mixed signals... please... I can't take it..."

With that, you ran off. Again, he never went after you, he watched you run. Your form getting smaller and smaller until you were gone.

He simply stood there, letting his hand fall limp beside him as he continued through the aquarium, this time on his own
