"Himiko! How many times do I have to tell you, the dorms are not-" Uraraka was cut off with a kiss, which she immediately melted in, before she caught herself and stepped back, pouting. "Someone could see you." She groaned half-heartedly, her heart pounding in her chest, cheeks flushed. The blonde grinned, taking her hand in hers and intertwining their fingers. "It's okay angel." Ochaco pressed a kiss onto her lover's cheeks, giggling softly. "We're going to regret this, someday." Himiko's smile never wavered, bringing her girlfriend closer.

"But until then..." Himiko whispered, her lips getting dangerously close to Ochaco's. "We can have some fun!" And as their lips were about to meet, they were interrupted by a loud cough, startling them both.

When Ochaco turned around to see exactly who was there, her heart sank at the sight of her best friend. Izuku. Himiko immediately wrapped her arms around her in a protective way, as Ochaco's mind went into overdrive. Oh my gosh what do I do what do I say- She felt the familiar feeling of anxiety creating a ball of stress in her stomach, rendering her absolutely powerless. "Deku-kun, I can explain-"

She wasn't expecting to meet eyes full of worry and concern, though. Izuku was watching Himiko warily, clearly not relaxed at all, and ready to activate his quirk at any moment. The blonde was aware of that, and she bared her fanged teeth, defensive. "Please do explain." And at that moment, Uraraka knew that the truth was the better option, but the consequences? Uraraka would be pulled out of UA, probably labelled as a villain. And if they managed to catch her, then Toga would be sent to prison, for probably all her life for the crimes she committed.

Uraraka, sweating bullets, buried her nose in the crook of Toga's neck, wimpering. She didn't want to have to deal with this situation. She knew it would happen at some point, hell, that was why she warned Himiko every time she came over. But of course the blonde would dismiss her warnings, of course she would continue-! "Well? I'm waiting." Izuku's disappointed tone sent shivers down her spine.

She knew they were in the better situation. Since Izuku had seen them nearly kiss, he didn't lunge at her villain girlfriend, smart and clearly knowing Uraraka wasn't in danger at this very moment. Still, though he was clever, how could he know that Ochaco was not the UA traitor, and that she wasn't a villain? They knew each other, but since she did hide this relationship from him, of course he was expecting each and every scenario at this point.

Ochaco stayed silent for a few seconds, before retreating from her safe spot in Himiko's neck. Her girlfriend held her tighter, as if she didn't want to let her go. Ochaco didn't want to go, either. "Himiko and I are in a relationship. I know she's a villain, but-" Izuku's voice cut her off, concern not at all hidden. "You know she's a villain, exactly! She tried to kill you, so why-" "I love her!" Himiko cut off, before pressing a soft and quick kiss on her lips. "I won't hurt her, I promise."

Izuku watched them both, speechless. Uraraka felt embarrassed, that he had to see that, but why was Himiko so cute? It was so unfair. "She's a villain, but she cares about me, just like I care about her. I promise I'm not the traitor, Izu, we just..." She shied away, biting the insides of her cheeks. "Love each other." She heard him sigh, and when she looked back, he was seemingly deep in thought and mumbling. Of course he was, he was probably debating the best course of action. 

"You promise you're not in danger, Ochaco?" He looked at her with begging eyes, tracing his own scars with his hands in anxiety. She nodded solemnly, glancing at her girlfriend, who relaxed just a bit. "I promise. We care for each other, and she will never let anything happen to me." As if to prove Ochaco's words, Himiko buried her head in the crook of her neck, repeating her action from earlier. Ochaco giggled, trying to push her away. "Himi! That tickles!" 

Izuku relaxed, a small smile brought on his lips. Of course, he was still worried, but the scene brought him reassurance. He didn't trust Toga, he probably never would, but at least he seemed okayish with it. "As long as you're happy, Ochaco." He smiled shyly, and Ochaco smiled back at him. "I am. Thank you for trusting us, Deku. And uh... don't tell anyone, please?" The green haired boy slightly hesitated, before nodding quietly. Then, he turned back and reached for the door, looking behind him.
