I sat in Mina's lap on the couch, she had wrapped her arms around me, seeming to have no intention of letting go. Ochaco and Shinso were to either side of me, Denki was next to Shinso arguing with Sero about what movie we should watch. Hawks was in the kitchen with Katsuki, they were chopping vegetables and frying chicken.

I looked around the room before looking over to Tenya. "Where's Momo?"

"She went up to her room a while ago, she feels really guilty. She was crying more than Mina." Sero explained.

I nodded, prying up from my place on Mina's lap. "How's everything going there?"

"Don't worry about it! Sit your ass back down." Katsuki growled as he chopped a mushroom to bits.

"OK Kaachan." I mocked as I sat back down.

Denki gripped my hand softly before leaning over Hitoshi and started to whisper. "I know this might not be the best time but after everyone goes to sleep. Sero and I are gonna go to our spot."

"I don't know about tha..." I was cut off by Hitoshi's voice in my head.

Did he just invite you for a sesh in the woods? I'll join you if you aren't comfortable. If you don't want to, you don't have to.

"Can Shinso come?" I whispered into Denki's ear.

Denki got an evil grin on his face before getting really close to Hitoshi's face. "Of course he can."

"Hey, what are you guys talking about?" Ochaco tilted her head slightly.

"Nothing." The four of us said collectively. 

She smiled awkwardly before turning towards Izuku. 

"Let's eat kids!" Hawks shouted, serving spoon in hand. 

Everyone shuffled into the kitchen and made plates. Joyous peace washed over the 1A dorm for a while, kind conversation and laughs were the only things to be found. Even Katsuki managed to have small, calm, conversation with Hitoshi.

I felt Hawks' hand grip my wrist lightly. "Kid, we need to have a chat. I'm going to dip out in 10, be there in 13."

"Copy." I nodded before taking my empty plate from the table. 

I walked over and filled the kitchen sink with hot soapy water. I placed my plate in with the others.

"Hey Roxy..." Sero slid in next to me. "... you don't have to come with us tonight but I figured since we've ran into each other in the early hours of the morning you might want to come kick it with us."

"I'll be there Sero, I'm always down for some vibing. Shinso is..."

Sero cut me off. "I know, I've ran into him too."

I smirked a bit. "I figure everyone will split off to bed soon enough, it's nearly 3am."

"3:33 seshing." Sero held up a peace sign before walking away. 

I ran water over the plates before going to place them in the drying rack. As I moved to place the first plate in there was a light grip on my hand. "Let me help you with that Petal."

I looked up into Kirishima's red eyes. His hair was a mess, a headband holding it back. "That would be great Eijiro."

He smiled brightly, sliding himself in between me and the wash sink. Kiri rolled up his sleeves and started on the growing pile of plates.

I started rinsing and placing the plates into the rack.

"If you leave these out they could collect bacteria." Tenya grabbed a clean towel from the cabinet. "Hand them to me, I'll dry them and put them away."

I nodded and handed him the plate I had placed down.

"Yeah, y'all have a good night. Tokoyami, I'll see you at the next work study thing." Hawks waved.

I took a deep breath, it was time for a change.
