"A third year like you should know running in the halls is prohibited. Your behavior is simply unacceptable. Be more careful next time or I'll have to mention this to the teachers" the tall boy with glasses spoke.

I guess there is a first for everything. Iida was now scolding the girl I was face to face with. I didn't know she was a third year though. I bet she's never been threatened by a first year before, and I also bet she doesn't like it. I can tell she's having a rough time from her slightly teary eyes. I noticed I still hadn't let go of her hand and quickly apologized.

"S-Sorry, I didn't mean to hold y-your hand l-like that" I stuttered as per usual.

I was nervous around girls, especially this one. Uraraka was staring at Hado with a confused look, while her hand lay on her chest. Hado must have felt overwhelmed as she swiftly took off, running up the escape stairs that lead to the roof. 

I turned back around to face my friends.

"I think you should have gone a little easier on her Iida, she looked upset." I spoke with a kind smile.

"Perhaps you are right Midoriya, my apologies" Iida responded bowing.

"No problem Iida, you guys go ahead and get lunch without me, I'll be with you in a bit" I added.

"But where are you going Deku?" Uraraka asked. 

"I'm g-going to...t-talk with Mr. A-Aizawa! about some w-work I have!" I lied.

"Ok then... See you soon" she finished, gazing at me skeptically.

Talking to Uraraka seemed more difficult than talking to other girls, maybe it was because she is my only female friend? Then again, I stutter a lot around girls. Either way, I have to check up on Hado. She seems distressed again.

I walked around the corner and watched my friends walk away. I sat their, waiting, until they rounded another corner and left, allowing me to head up the escape stairs, following Hado. The staircase was a few stories high until it stopped on the third floor. There was no sign of the blue haired girl so I took a second glance at my area.

I noticed another, narrower, door to the right with the emergency exit sign above it. 

Perhaps she went up there. 

I pushed the door open using my hands and followed the staircase upwards. I couldn't hear anything which was slightly deterring as I was now thinking she might have gone another path. Shortly after, I reached the top of the staircase, leading to the roof of the school. I pushed open the door cautiously, as to not startle her, assuming she was there that is. 

After fulling pushing the door open I saw long, wavy periwinkle hair that was blowing around in the wind. The sight was honestly mesmerizing, how it flowed naturally against the soft breeze... I stared for a few moments before snapping out of my gaze.

I walked over to her. The closer I got to Hado I realized she had her backpack next to her, along with a bento box in hand. 

"H-Hey, Hado." I stuttered out of habit.

I seriously need to get control of this stutter.

She turned around surprised to see me. She wiped her eyes void of any tears and spoke,

"H-Hi Midoriya." she muttered, just barely loud enough for me to hear.

So Hado remembered my name...

I took a seat next to her, enjoying the view in front of us. We sat in a comfortable silence, listening to the wind and feeling it's gentle breeze against our skin. I glanced over to her, soaking in all her beauty. I noticed sparkling royal blue eyes, probably from the tears. Hado glanced back at me, confused as to why I was looking at her.
