I go back over to my seat. I can't help but think about what Uraraka said. 

'I've seen the way you look at eachother'

do I really do that? 

I look over to Deku who's focused on the battles. I take note of every feature on his face, his freckles spotted over his cheeks, the way his eyes seem to glow when he's excited. 

I find myself staring at him for a exceedingly long time and he seems to notice.

"what? do I have something on my face?" he asks me while touching his face.

I just stare at him my face turning pink like a deer in headlights. 

"n-nothing sorry" I stammer nervously.

I turn my attention back up to the screen to see Ashido and Kaminari frantically running from falling debris in ground gamma.

"in the past humans conducted horrible experiments on Nezu, so in times like this he gets his vengeance." Recovery girl comments.

everyone in the room stays silent, our eyes glued to the screen watching our classmates get cornered by the mouse. 

Mina melts a hole in the wall of a building and they both crawl in but Nezu finds them and makes the building collapse using his crane. 

"incredible, he's always two steps ahead of them" Deu says gawking at the scene.

"they can't attack him if they don't know where he is, what an impressive brain." Tsu comments.

"the principles strategy is nearly perfect." Yaoyorozu says.

the timer nears its end as Kaminari and Ashido climb out of the rubble.

"Team 8 has failed due to the time expiring."

"aw man that sucks!"

"Damn it!" the two exclaim frustrated.

"so it's over... they lost" Deku says getting increasingly nervous for his own exam.

"they never even saw their opponent" Lida says staring at the screen.

"aw man they must be crushed" Uraraka says feelin the frustration of her classmates. 

"yeah..." I add 

"hey Maya, what were you and Ochaco talking about right before the end of your match against Thirteen?" Tsu chimes in putting a finger to her chin. 

"uh.. well... GAH it was nothing!" I say my face turning red and Uraraka lets out a little laugh at my reaction.

"why is your face so red?" Lida asks me.

"what- no my face is not red!" I argue

thankfully the robotic voice interrupts our awkward conversation to call up the next team.

"team Koda and Jiro, practical exam, ready, go!" 

the camera cuts to a large forest ground encased in a large circular wall. 

"the practical exam matches up students with teachers they are supposed to have a hard time with. that's the whole point right?" Lida asks.

"yes" Yaoyorozu answers.
