A Mutant's Hero Academia [BNHA & X-men Crossover]

FOURTY

Seven Japanese futons splayed out on the hardwood floor. They were a good meter away from each other since there was a rather spacious room considering the number of the girls. While the boys of class A shared a room on another floor.

After the bath, Akano curled up on her respective futon, absorbed in a book she was reading after she set her alarm. Her hair was still damp from the springs, and she looked refreshed and calm.

The rest of the girls had also just gotten back, and they'd shut the sliding door behind them.

After Mina declared that they wouldn't be going to sleep just yet, the girls gathered close to the redhead, sitting around to form a circle.

"When you think 'girl's party', it's gotta be love stories!" Hagakure excitedly exclaimed, with Mina and Ochako cheering along, already munching on the snacks they brought. And Yumi could only stare in amusement.

'Shouldn't we be going to bed?' Yumi thought, a drop of sweat on her cheek, but she still played along.

"Who's going out with somebody?!" The pinkette asked with an elated blush, giggling like the high school girl she is.

Her question though, was met with silence, as the seven girls looked back and forth between each other. This went on for about a minute, up until the sound of a cricket chirping in the distance finally made them give in.

"Maybe we should head up to the boys' dorm?" Jirou finally broke the silence, and she was met with the majority's agreement.

***

After much convincing, Akano and Yaoyorozu finally gave in and went along with their fellow girls' trip over to the upstairs room.

The boys themselves were in the middle of an intense card game that the girls ended up joining in. But Yumi opted out of playing because someone was being a tad too competitive.

"I lost again!" Bakugou growled, explosions practically erupting from his hands as he lost for the third time in a row. "Damn! One more game!" He demanded, with the rest signings from his attitude.

"Bakugou, you suck at this, surprisingly." Kaminari playfully teased, though he still scooted away from him out of precaution.

Katsuki's seething expression was amusing as ever to Yumi as she watched from the sidelines. Like her, Todoroki and Shoji had already refused to play, but the three sat near the circle of classmates, quietly observing.

"Shut up! Just cut the cards better! I know you're doing something underhanded!" Bakugou exclaimed.

"Of course not. You just suck." Kirishima said with a deadpan.

"WHAT'D YA SAY, SHITTY HAIR?!"

This went on for a while that even Todoroki had to speak up. "With this pace, the game won't be over till Bakugou wins." Shouto said, but with the explosive blonde's loud voice booming, only Yumi was able to hear him.

The red haired telepath giggled in agreement. "Yeah, they should stop already."

"We start training tomorrow, but they don't seem the least bit nervous." Shouto said.

Yumi nodded. "I guess it's their way of blowing off steam."

"I suppose..." He hummed in reply.

"Hey," Mineta squeezed in between Yumi and Shouto, an irk mark evident on his forehead as he glared at the bicolor-haired boy in particular. "Why are you so chatty all of a sudden? You used to prowl around like an introvert all semester." He hissed at Shouto, his tone displaying a mixture of annoyance and jealousy.
