tamaki stumbled back to his dorm building, where mirio and nejire were waiting for him.
"tamaki! how are you holding up?" the blonde called out to him, walking towards tamaki to assist him.
tamaki blushed slightly, his heart pounding a bit as mirio helped him keep his balance. why was he suddenly feeling like this? mirio's touched and helped tamaki before, so why does now make him nervous?
"d- doing well.. " he muttered, keeping his head down.
"come inside, yaoyorozu from class 1-a brought in some tea earlier!" nejire added, opening the door once the two boys were close enough.

"and then the transfer student did this with her hands, and pewwwsh!! her horms flew off and pinned him with her horns! it was amazing!" nejire smiled, her eyes twinkling with delight as she talked about pony tsunotori. she seemed to enjoy the fact that the younger student was western.
"yeah, the first years this year are really amazing!" mirio laughed, standing up from the couch. "i'm gonna head to the bathroom, don't do anything fun without me!"
and then he was gone.
nejire and tamaki sat there in silence, occasionally shifting around in their seats. that is, until nejire spoke up.
"hey, amajiki?"
tamaki looked up at her, cocking his head a little bit. nejire took this as a sign to keep talking.
"i'm.. very sorry about today's training. i shouldn't have picked you up like that. again, i-"
"it's.. alright, hado. it was mostly my fault i ended up like this, anyways." tamaki assured her, giving a soft smile. nejire returned the gesture, sighing in relief.
"aah.. thank goodness.." she muttered, the indigo haired boy unable to hear her.
"oh, oh! by the way, 1-a really started going when togata carried you out! they were so talkative, i thought i heard something about-"
"hey, i'm back!" a voice was heard, interrupting nejire. "something about 1-a? what'd they say?"
nejire looked back at tamaki, who had a horrified look on his face. what if they talked bad about him? how would he come back after humiliating himself in front of all the first years?! just thinking about the worst case scenario made the pale boy queasy.
taking pity on the poor thing, she immediately thought of a great cover up- "ah, togata! welcome back! they were talking about how cool you looked taking amajiki to the infirmary! they were like... 'woaaah! togata is so cool!'" she grinned. she's one hell of an actress alright.
but that still didn't help tamaki's case. mirio would go such a length to help him.. of course, that didn't seem like any different from anyone else, but tamaki felt.. special in some way. like he was treated with care despite how reckless mirio was, the way mirio rubbed his back in comfort when he was on the verge of an anxiety attack on the way, the way the blonde carried him in his muscular and toned arms wasn't scary or hurting him at all--
this is too much for tamaki to think about, his face suddenly growing a deep pink.
"amajiki? is everything alright? are you feeling sick? do you need to head to your room?" nejire asked, bringing him out of his train of thought. thank goodness for her.
"a- ah,, it's getting pretty late so.. yeah.." tamaki muttered.
the female smiled, "alright. i'll wash the dishes here. do you wanna take a bath?"
tamaki nodded.
mirio caught on, helping the former stand up. "i'll help you then!"
"thanks togata, have fun you two!" nejire giggled, heading back to the kitchen with a few cups as mirio and tamaki went to go get the indigo haired boy a change of clothes.
when they came back to head towards the bath, mirio grabbed a backpack of his own, tamaki questioning why he would take his school bag with him.

nejire thought to herself while washing the dishes.
