Haruki's POV:

To say performing in front of people I wasn't prepared for was nerve-racking, to say the least. It's definitely weird doing it with Kiego again. I'm one of the only people who can call him Keigo because of his stage name of 'Hawks', so it's weird to have to refer to him as his stage name.

Before walking to the stage, I grabbed Bakugo's arm and Eijiro's hand. The walk down to makeup was nice and quiet. I sat in the chair so a little bit of time, getting touch ups done before heading over to the stage to do a mic check. It was a big stage and I had enough room to walk around and probably do a back handspring. I took a few dance classes when I was younger, but Kiego had been taking classes for six years.

I was given an ear piece and an over-the-ear mic. We went off the stage and into the wings when the backing track started to play. There were a few people already gathering; the few that showed up came because of the VIP tickets.

I sang along to the instrumental backtrack of the song. Keigo came out and started to dance a bit, but he didn't go full-out. I haven't spoken to or, let alone, dance with him for about a few months now, but it felt so natural dancing with him. We got to the chorus of the song and that was when we started free-styling. It's more likely that that's how we would probably be while performing it. After the song was finished, I went backstage and got a drink.

"So, you can dance. Didn't know that." Eijiro said, handing me a bottle of water. "Just be careful. Your skirt is kinda short. If you bend down enough, everyone will see everything." My face immediately went into a deep blush.

"I'm sorry!" I said, flailing my arms around.

"We enjoyed the view, but we're just telling you to be careful, dumbass" Bakugo said, patting me on the head. I smiled and walked over to Mai to get her thoughts on the song and dance.

"I don't like this. I don't think this is going to be good for your relationship. Also, with the media..." Mai stated in a low and quiet tone.

"Yeah, I get that. I don't know either. Sure, I have my suspicions of what could happen, but I think he's changed. I don't think anything bad will be said or done." I spoke, low and direct.

"I hope you're right." Mai said, giving me a hug. Before she was about to walk away, we heard a familiar voice.

"Maiemi? Oh shit. Hey doll!" A purple-haired boy said, walking up to us. He picked her up and swung her around in circles. She started laughing.

"Shinsy! How are you?" The pure joy on her face was everything and more.

"Gee, thanks, Shinso. Love you too." I said, laughing and smiling at the two.
