He nodded, grabbed his clothes, and made his way to the bathroom. Kaina sat in the room, waiting, her thoughts wandering as she peeked at the closed bathroom door. Realizing what she was doing, she shook her head and quickly straightened up, pulling out her phone to distract herself by scrolling through the news.

Moments later, the bathroom door opened, and Itachi emerged, fully dressed in a black shirt and black track pants. The sight of him made her blush furiously, and in her flustered state, she quickly stood up. "Y-you can cook if you want!" she stammered and ran off into the bathroom to hide her embarrassment.

Itachi chuckled softly at her reaction and made his way to the kitchen. Deciding to make something simple but delicious, he started gathering the ingredients for fried rice. First, he took some leftover rice from the fridge, cold and perfect for frying. Then, he pulled out eggs, green onions, carrots, and peas.

He cracked two eggs into a bowl, whisking them lightly before setting them aside. Next, he finely chopped the green onions, sliced the carrots into thin matchsticks, and measured out the peas.

Heating a large pan over medium-high heat, Itachi poured in a bit of vegetable oil, swirling it around. Once the oil shimmered, he added the whisked eggs, scrambling them quickly. When they were just cooked, he transferred them to a plate and set them aside.

In the same pan, he added a little more oil and threw in the green onions, carrots, and peas, sautéing them until the carrots softened and the peas brightened in color. As the vegetables cooked, their aroma filled the kitchen, drawing a small smile from Itachi.

With the veggies done, he added the cold rice to the pan, breaking it up with his spatula as he tossed everything together. The sound of the rice sizzling filled the air, and Itachi expertly stirred it, making sure each grain was coated with oil and evenly heated.

He then returned the scrambled eggs to the pan, mixing them into the rice before seasoning everything with a few splashes of soy sauce, a dash of sesame oil for extra flavor, and a pinch of salt and pepper. The rich, savory smell of the fried rice wafted through the kitchen as Itachi gave it one final stir.

Just as he was finishing up, Kaina emerged from the bathroom, her hair slightly damp, and her face still a little pink from earlier. She saw Itachi standing by the stove, plating the fried rice, and couldn't help but smile.

"It smells amazing," she said, her voice soft and genuine.

Itachi looked up at her, his calm smile returning. "It's ready. I hope you like it."

Kaina sat down at the table, her heartwarming as she watched Itachi bring over the plates of steaming fried rice. She took a bite and her eyes lit up. "This is perfect!" she exclaimed.

Itachi took his seat across from her and nodded, pleased. "I'm glad you think so."

As they enjoyed the meal together. After that they both went to there room and they sleep…..

Over the next 26 days of their internship, Kaina and Itachi developed a deep understanding and respect for one another. Their daily routines became more synchronized, and they often found themselves working side by side, not just as partners in hero work, but as friends whose feelings were evolving into something more.

Kaina's feelings for Itachi grew with each passing day. She admired his calm demeanor, his quiet strength, and the care he put into everything, even the smallest gestures. Every time Itachi made a meal for them, or every moment he would subtly protect her during their patrols, her heart would swell with affection. She often caught herself thinking about him long after their shifts ended, and it became increasingly difficult to hide her growing love for him.

On the other hand, Itachi also began to feel something more than camaraderie for Kaina. It started in the little moments. One day, after a long patrol, Kaina handed him a bottle of water, her smile bright and reassuring. He realized how much he looked forward to her presence, her laughter, and even her small nervous habits, like the way she'd blush or fidget whenever their hands accidentally brushed. Itachi found himself wanting to protect her, not just as a hero but as someone who cared deeply for her.

One particularly wholesome moment happened on the 15th day of their internship. After a peaceful patrol, the two decided to visit a nearby park. As they sat under a tree, watching children play and enjoying the soft breeze, Kaina made a joke about how peaceful the day was, and Itachi, known for his stoicism, actually laughed—a genuine, heartfelt sound. The warmth of that moment stayed with him, and for the first time, he acknowledged the possibility that he might be falling for her.

Another time, during a late-night patrol on the 22nd day, Kaina tripped while they were walking back to the agency. Without hesitation, Itachi caught her, his arms wrapping around her waist to steady her. For a moment, they stood there, close and silent, and Itachi couldn't deny the way his heart quickened in his chest. Kaina, flustered and blushing, pulled away, but the memory of how natural it felt lingered with him.

By the 26th day, their bond had deepened so much that it was clear, even without words, that they meant a great deal to each other. Kaina had fully accepted her love for Itachi, while Itachi himself was slowly realizing that Kaina had become someone precious to him.

On the 27th day of their internship, Itachi and Kaina were on patrol when Kaina's communicator buzzed with a distress call from a nearby hero. "We need help! Villain attack at [XX] road—hostages inside!" the voice called out urgently. Kaina immediately turned to Itachi, her expression serious. "Let's go," she said, and Itachi nodded in agreement as they both sprinted toward the location.

When they arrived at the scene, the street was filled with police cars, and officers were trying to negotiate with the villain through megaphones. The atmosphere was tense, and the air felt thick with uncertainty. Kaina approached one of the officers and asked for a briefing on the situation. "There are 30 hostages inside the bank," the officer explained, "and the villain is threatening to blow everything up. His quirk is suicide bombs."

Kaina's eyes widened in shock. "This is bad," she muttered under her breath. Itachi stepped forward, his voice calm but focused. "Can we go inside?"

The police officer hesitated, unsure who Itachi was, but Kaina quickly introduced him. "This is Aegis, my intern. He's a first-year at UA." The officer nodded in recognition. "Right, I've heard about you. But be careful—this is a volatile situation."

With no time to waste, Kaina and Itachi began moving toward the entrance of the bank when they heard a sharp voice from behind. "Hey, you two, stop!" They turned to see a tall man with spiked crimson hair, a fierce look in his turquoise eyes, and flames flickering around his beard and mustache. It was none other than Endeavor, the No.2 hero.

Itachi narrowed his eyes at the hero. "Endeavor," he said under his breath, watching as Endeavor strode past them without a second glance. Kaina, slightly taken aback, whispered, "I think he'll manage…" But Itachi was determined. "We need to go inside," he insisted.

Kaina glanced at him, feeling a strange shift in their dynamic. For a moment, it was as if she were his intern, not the other way around. She nodded, trusting his instincts. Together, they entered the bank, where the villain stood at the center of the room. His appearance was bizarre—his head resembled a cartoon bomb, with a fuse sticking out and an eerie, exaggerated expression on his face. The hostages sat huddled in fear, eyes wide with terror as the villain brandished his explosive quirk.

Before Kaina or Itachi could act, Endeavor charged forward, his voice booming. "Ignited Arrow!" With a powerful blast of fire, Endeavor unleashed a searing arrow of flames that struck the villain head-on. Both Itachi and Kaina's eyes widened in shock as the villain began to burn.

"Rescue the hostages, now!" Kaina shouted, and Itachi sprang into action with incredible speed. While Kaina managed to help two hostages to safety, Itachi had already moved ten people out of harm's way in the same amount of time. His agility and precision left Kaina both impressed and in awe of his abilities. He moved like a blur, his eyes sharp and focused on each civilian he pulled from the chaos.
