What About Mineta?

⚠️((WARNING!!! HOMOPHOBIA!!))⚠️
DING!

Seriously?.. who would be texting me right now?..
I groggily lifted my head to grab my phone and open the message
I read "MINETA! DO YOU WANNA COME TO THE MALL WITH US? OR SHOULD I SAY BASICALLY THE WHOLE CLASS- well except Koji, Ojiro, Shoji, Sato, Tokoyami, Iida, and Aoyama bc I think they wanted to sleep in or spend time with their family or somethin 🧐"
Seriously??? At 10 am they wanna go to the mall. Whatever, it's not like I got anything better to do. I'm hanging out with Jack on Sunday anyways. I texted back, "Yeah! As long as the girls are going 🤤" I hated myself for even saying that. ugHHH... When will I be able to STOP??? I guess until they find out themselves.. which isn't too long from now..
Denki replied pretty quick "Oh yeah they're coming! Get ready quick because they are already starting to walk and I can't stop them!!!"

Great.

I jumped out of my bed and put casual clothes on, and ran outside to the entrance where they were already at. "Jeez, when I meant quick I didn't mean seconds." Denki said scratching the side of his head. "Then don't say that if you don't mean it dummy!"
I felt a sudden thing slap my cheek. Of course, it was tsu. "Don't tell at Denki, Mineta. It's not like you aren't stupid either."
"I was joking.." I mumbled so nobody could hear. Denki stayed silent after that, probably not giving a damn that tsu just slapped me for joking. I could tell he knew I was. Yet he didn't say anything. Hah. Guess that proves how much of a
dumb
Stupid
Perverted
idiot I am.

We finally arrived to the mall.
We all went to a clothing store first, except the dekusquad. They probably went to a food court.

We were looking through the store until we heard quiet arguing. It sounded like a father and daughter. "Come on Emily, that stuff is gay. It's gross. Let's stay away from this part of the section."
"But.. dad? What's wrong with LGBTQ? They are just loving who they love.." the daughter started defending them.
"No! They are gross, don't ever say that!" "Well.. what would you do if your family was gay? Would you still love them?" "Probably not, I'd probably disown them." "Well.. How about I say I am! Are you gonna disown me??" "Emily.. shut up. you ARENT like those gays! Don't be disgusting! Do you want me to call you gross??" The little girl looked as if she was about to cry. I looked over to the others, they all were either clearly sad or mad. Yet they didn't do anything, they didn't say anything. You gotta be kidding me. That's it. I give in.
"HEY!" I stood in front of the girl, seperating her from the dad. "Stop right there! What in the world makes you think yelling at your daughter is ok?!"
"I was teaching her a lesson! She wanted this disgusting gay shirt."
"Oh COME. ON! you can't be THAT much of a lowlife to believe that? You do know almost half of the population is LGBTQ right?? You are living around these people all the time, and NOW you seem to have a problem with it? And what's so wrong about loving the same gender? It LITERALLY MAKES NO DIFFERENCE!! ITS LOVE!! WHO CARES??"
"I-... well my daughter shouldn't like it! I am her dad, and she should listen to me not you! Who even are you?"
"I'm Mineta. And, please, don't consider yourself a dad until you actually start acting like one. Because clearly, you aren't. 🙂" I turned around to the little kid. She looked better than before, but she was still a little frightened. "Are you okay?" I said. "Yeah.. thank you." Just then an idea popped into my head. "Hey.. what was that shirt you wanted?" She pointed over to the shirt. "Kay! I'll be right back." I went and bought the shirt, because clearly the dad won't.
"Here you go." I handed the shirt over to her. "I.. thank you!!" She hugged me. Which was adorable I cannot lie. "Oh- it's nothing really, UHM.. bye!" I started walking over to my classmates until I heard the dad speak up. "Sorry Emily.. something came over me.. I shouldve just accepted you. I'm sorry." Well that's sweet. I began walking again. Wow- everyone looked in shock. "Mineta.. what was that?.." Momo was the first one to talk. "What? I just stood up for her because clearly none of you would." I rolled my eyes. "Wow! Holy fuck, who are you and what did you do with mineta??" Denki laughed "Wow mineta!! You just made me like you a little bit!" Mina said.
They rest of the class was speechless. "Good thing I had my phone out.. I need to show this to everyone!" Hagakure appeared out of no where. "H-hagakure?! You were recording that?!" I said trying to reach for her phone. "Yep! Now I can show anyone it!" She stood proudly. "I mean, why would it matter if someone sees it? Mineta should be proud of what he did. Who cares if someone sees it?" Kirishima spoke up. "I agree with shitty hair." Bakugou said. Wow I didn't even notice he was here. "DID BAKUGOU JUST AGREE WITH SOMEONE?!" Sero screamed "SHUT UP OR ILL BLOW YOU TO HELL!" Bakugou started yelling.

Well.
I guess sometimes my classmates can be jerks.. but, maybe they are nice sometimes too. I can't wait for them to find out.. but I also don't want them to find out. Its a weird mix, but I can't choose one.

Hopefully they'll find out soon.
