Stars || Togachako

Ch1 || The stars are cool heh?

Quick thing before we start, I promise you, the writing gets better as the story progresses. I thought it would be good to have Uraraka and Deku's romantic scenes be super awkward compared to after Uraraka meets someone she loves romantically rather than likes romantically

Uraraka's POV

"What is it that you wanted to tell me?"

"Well umm..."

I can barely get my words out to the green-haired male. I mean this was a spur of the moment decision to confess my feelings to him, and it was only a suggestion in the first place. Why am I even doing this?

"I... I like you Deku. A lot actually, in a romantic way."

Deku's cheeks turn a bright pink and he starts sputtering out incoherent words.

"I- Ur- You- I- li- Ochako- Can I call you Ochako?"

I giggle at the question.

"Yeah, I mean even if you don't like me back we're still close friends right?"

"No no no! I do like you back, I'm just nervous!"

"Wait really?"

"Y-yeah!"

I find myself grinning like an idiot at the green-haired boys' words and stare down at the ground to try and hide my clearly red cheeks.

"So like... are we boyfriend and girlfriend now?"

"Yeah! I mean if you want to be..."

I look back up at Deku and jump up, wrapping my arms around his neck. He reluctantly hugs back, placing his hands on my back.

~~~ts next day, lunch~~~

Deku and I should get lunch together right? Well we always have lunch together but Iida, Tsu, and Todoroki are always with us. I should get him to see if he wants to get lunch just the two of us.

I look around the English classroom for him because that's the class he has right before lunch but he isn't there.

"Hey, who ya looking for!?" Present Mic asks with his usual energized tone. "Deku, is he here?"

"Ah Midoriya? That Hatsume girl from 1-h ran dragged him to the workshop place I think!"

Why would Deku go off with her? I mean I'm jealous enough of her with how flirty she was with him at the sports festival...

I thank Present Mic and say my goodbyes as I rush off to the workshop.

As I open the door ajar, I can't bring myself to go in.

"Come on! Try it on!" "No way!" "Aww come on!"

The two are giggling together while Hatsume holds out some weird looking hat she probably made. They're also really close, like touching even.

Deku's sitting on a stool against a table and Hatsume has her arms around him, one hand resting on the table and the other holding the hat. The hat is the only thing separating their torso's, apart from their clothes obviously. Deku doesn't seem upset with the lack of space though.

I should just go...

I lightly close the door, making sure not to have it make a noise, and begin running off to the cafeteria. I fears prick behind my eyes. I know it's petty since I know they're just friends, I mean Deku and I became official yesterday after school, he's not some fuck-boy, he's a sweet guy. I'm just so... selfish...
