"I didn't realize you were rich rich, Momo-San!" The girl blushes in embarrassment. "I just wanted to make sure we were sitting together for the trip there." She smiled. I slide my sunglasses down my nose and look at the jet behind her with wide eyes.

"Well, chop chop- we mustn't be late!" Iida yells, standing by the stairs of the jet. I walk forward, dragging my suitcase behind me. "This is insane. Are you excited Kacchan?" I spin around with a teasing smile.

"Don't call me that." He responds, rolling his eyes. "I knew it, you so are." I raise my brows at him and he smacks the back of my head, walking past me onto the jet. I snicker to myself and grab my suitcase, pulling it behind me as I walk towards the stairs of the plane. 

A man takes the suitcase off of me, giving it to his colleague and smiling at me.

I smile slightly, "such a gentleman." I fan my face, turning towards Uraraka behind me. She laughs sweetly and hands the boy her suitcase. "Kumiko-Chan, do you mind if we sit together?" She questions. 

Uraraka and I weren't mean to each other or anything but we just don't talk often, something I kind of hate myself for because she seems really, really nice and we did work together against Bakugou and Iida during our first week of school.

I shake my head. "Of course." I smile, pulling her along to the jet's entrance and run up the stairs, into the jet. There's a small bar at the end of the jet and five rows of two seats on each side. At the end of the seats there's two couches on each side of the jet. I pull Uraraka behind me towards the end row on the left.

"There's no way I'm sitting in the same row as you for this long-ass flight."

I roll my eyes at Bakugou. "You think we're gonna be worse than Kirishima?" I question, earning a 'hey' from him. Bakugou contemplated for a moment before nodding. "No, she has a point." He agrees.

After two hours into the flight, snores of my fellow classmates were heard throughout the jet. I stared at my iPad in front of me, playing a movie. I couldn't help but notice the feeling of being watched as I sat there. Slowly looking to my side, I made direct eye contact with Uraraka. 

Uraraka looked away immediately, flushing red. "I didn't mean to stare, sorry." She whispered. I smiled awkwardly at her. "No big deal." I responded, slowly placing my earphone back in my ear. 

She began to stare at me again the second I turned my head and I coughed awkwardly. "Do you- uh- need something?" I question, facing her again and she repeats the gesture of looking away bashfully. "No." She responds quickly. I nod back at her and turn back to my iPad, about to place my earphone back into my ear.

"Actually-" She interrupts me for the third time. "I need- uh, some advice." She informs. I frown in confusion, turning my iPad off and fully facing her. "Oh... from me?" I question.

"Well, uh- Aoyama-Kun said something to me during the exam." I frown. "Did he say something bad?" I ask, glancing around the plane.

"No, no- it's just..." She sighs. "I think, I think I have a crush on Deku-Kun." She says quietly. I think for a moment, before my eyes widen in excitement. "You mean M-!" The girl slams her hand over my mouth. "Don't yell!" She whispers. I nod under her hand and she drops it. 

I think back to the conversation I had with Bakugou weeks before, where he told me about how they like each other.

"Well... what did you need help with?" I question.
