<Isn't that the semifinals girl? >>

<<The shadows one? >>

<<Yeah her, is it her? Oh my god if it's her I'm gonna faint>>

<<She looks like it, try and ask he->>

I fasten up my pace so I won't get followed, I'm too tired for this, it's like the twentieth couple that recognizes me, I even put my hood on to avoid these kind of things yet still people manage to recognize me just by my face.

I finally arrive to the Yuuei, entering and shaking a little because of all the water I got from the pouring rain outside, I take off my hoodie when I enter my class and I'm left with my uniform that surely doesn't keep my body warmth intact, I go to my seat whispering a shy hi and I keep my head lowered avoiding my classmates gazes, one in particular.

It's the first day after the festival accident, and that mean it's also the first day I see them too, including Shoto.

I'm covered in shame and disappointment beside rain water, even my uniform jacket is wet and I had to take it off too to put in on the class heater. <<Good Morning Akisame>>

A jacket is put on my shoulder followed by a warm voice and I'm paralyzed, hearing the person I disappointed right behind me.

He slowly walks around my desk leaning on with his hands on it and I raise my eyes meeting his, nobody notices my little moment with Todoroki...they're all too caught up in chatting like a normal class would do before the lesson start, all except Bakugo's burning eyes on me from the corner for the classroom. <<Morning, Todoroki>>

<<No Roki today? Not even Shoto? I liked it you know>> he smiles but I feel tears forming on the corner of my eyes, deeply ashamed, and I look at the floor bowing my head to him. <<I heard you and your little speeches every time you came to see me, I was just a little too weak to answer>> I try to suppress a sob that unfortunately doesn't pass unnoticed by him and he bends down a little and puts a hand under my chin to make me look at him.<<Ame, you were unconscious on a nursery bed after an extremely violent fight, do you really think I could be mad at you for that? Also, maybe you weren't there physically, but mentally I knew you were cheering for me, I heard you voice in the back of my head telling me what to do>>

<<Well I was saying bullshit since you lost, shouldn't have listened to me>> I sigh remembering the sight of him unconscious on the ring and he gives me a little comfort smile before continuing.<<Well that's true, but you were there, I even saw you the last few minutes, and I really appreciate how much you care about me, but you really shouldn't put our friendship on such a high stand, I should be the one thanking you>>

<

<Don't have to, it's normal for me, not a duty or something like that, so it's fine>>

<<Then you have to be "fine" Too, ok? We're on very good terms believe me, and just keep my jacket until yours doesn't dry>>

<<You could just dry it with your newly unlocked quirk>> I smile and he shakes his head. <<I couldn't take care of you then, and that's what friends do right? You take care of me I do the same for you>> I smile getting up from my seat and I jump on him hugging him tightly.

I feel like I could fly, the past days I had such a heavy guilt on my chest, I never liked to be on bad terms with people, that's why I never accepted my relationship with Bakugo, but now that I'm good with Shoto I just feel...wow.

Not being able to talk to him knowing that I also couldn't do anything to make up for my absence, that was a hard lunch in the stomach, but being here now, hugging him, I feel like I just made ammends with my big brother, I guess that's how it is to have an actual brother, someone you can joke around with and also sometimes feel bad for, and I'm happy that life gave me him as a "brother", be used I think both of us needed it.

And with every second that passes by, I feel his little ice hear melting with my presence.
