Detention (IzuOcha Fanfic)

Chapter 4

Chapter 4 - New Student

The brunette flutter her sleepy eyes open as the light rays from the sun is beaming through her curtains making her squint her eyes. She sat up on bed and reached for her phone to check the time but something caught her attention from her notifications.

It was a message from her art teacher. She texted in their group chat about an announcement and it peak her interest immediately. It was an art competition for all students in their school and the top 3 winners will receive a cash prize and an opportunity to have their art work paste on the walls over the school.

"Amazing." She whispered with a glimpse of sparkles in her eyes which is full of excitement. She even saw that this competition was also around the country so whoever is one of the top 3 will have the recognition from the school. "I wanna participate."

Ochako had a big interest when it comes to art and she grew up painting and drawing for how many years and this might be her first international competition ever.

Her school doesn't really pay much attention when it comes to arts because of their main focus of studies and succeeding with good grades of important subjects for their school's image. That's why not a lot of people took arts and they don't have interest because of this reason so they don't really care much if they fail or not in that subject. 

This is also a rare opportunity because their school has never participated in these types of events and now this was her chance to experience what she always wanted to try in her life.

She was so excited and can't wait to start it. She read the details of the competition and saw the due date was in a month. 

After reading, her door opened, revealing her mother with a worried look. "What are you still doing? Get ready for school."

Ochako giggled due to the news she was about to give to her mother. "Okay, mom! I also wanna tell you something!" She then hopped out of bed.

"Alright, tell me during breakfast." Her mom went out as she walked downstairs to the dining room.

Ochako followed from behind, hopping happily.

"Ochako-chan." Tsuyu waved at Ochako as they meet each other in front of the school compound. "Did you hear the news?"

The brunette smiled widely with excitement in her face. She nodded. "I'm so excited to join!"

"Well, I'm not joining that." Tsuyu replied with a chuckle, knowing that her skills aren't going to make her win anyway. "Good luck."

"Thank you!" She sang, clinging her arms around her friend.

As they made their way in their classroom, Ochako sat down on her seat and immediately took notice of an object on her table. It was her lunch box that she left for Izuku yesterday for their punishment they did together.

Her eyes widened with surprise, she didn't expect him to give it back. This isn't like him. She then looked around the room to look for Izuku but he was nowhere to be found. "That's weird." She mumbled.

"What's wrong?" Tsuyu stood next to her, noticing the puzzled look on her face. "Why are you looking around like that?"

Ochako stuttered with a nervous expression. "A-Ah! It's nothing! I was just looking for something."

"I see." She answered back. "By the way, the new student is arriving today, I wonder if he's here already."

Tsuyu then sat behind her.

"Hey, have you seen-" Just before she could ask him, she saw Izuku just entering the class. Her eyes follow his direction as he walked to his seat. It looked like he was here earlier because his bag was already set on his chair.
