Songbird

ꕤA sweet taste of normal teenage hoodꕤ

Momo got up. 8:00am. She had to be in the dorms in UA by about 10:30. She got started on her routine. She pumped lotion out of the long green bottle and rubbed it on her face. She put her hair up, per usual. She took out her Invisalign and began brushing her teeth and putting on whitening strips. She then sat down on the toilet lid and shaved her legs and arms. It was time for the clothing.

She put on the cutest outfit. A black pencil skirt, white shirt, and white fishnets with a
tan cardigan. She finished off by adding a cute beret and she was all set. She almost left her room when she realized she still had her strips in. She quickly trotted into the bathroom and threw them in the trash and left.

She was carrying her helmet and put it on.  Surely no one was watching her, she had a helmet..also she was riding a motorcycle. It was a bright red helmet and bright red motorcycle. Her favorite color was red. It was something no one knew about her. She looked around as she rode to the school. She could have gone to UA if she didn't pursue her dream as a singer.

Finally she arrived at the entrance. She parked her bike and began walking in. Whilst walking through the halls, someone stopped her. A tall dark man with black hair stepped in front of her. "You can't be here without a visitor's pass." He said. "Oh I am so sorry! Where do you get a visitor's pass?" Momo was just trying to get to the common rooms. The tall led her to the library. "Ask the woman right there, she'll give it to you." He said, and then walked away. How strange.

She asked for a visitor's pass and gave her information. After a quick background check she was all set. She began walking towards where she presumed the 1A dorm buildings were. Boy was she wrong. She ended up in the training grounds. She quickly backed out as a metal headed boy crashed right at her feet.

After many failed attempts she finally ended up at the common rooms. She was confused, dazed, and overall very disoriented. But she was there.

She quickly dashed to the door and hopped in. She forced the door closed and sighed. "Hi everyone" she waved sheepishly at the crowd that was Class 1A. 

That morning everyone in 1A was pretty chill, they had forgotten about this entirely. Momo smoothed back her hair and cleared her throat. "Is Mina Ashido here?" she smiled. "Momoko! Oh my gosh you really came!" Mina came through the crowd. Mina and Momo began chatting while the rest of them were dumbfounded. "Momoko..In our common room." Jirou muttered. Deku and Bakugou looked at each other. They both had the exact same thought.

'That looks just like Yaomomo'

Back then when the two of them were kids, Yaoyorozu's nickname was "Yaomomo." Izuku had never thought of this before. Izuku listened to her music, he had never recognized how similar the two seemed, well not two, Since Momoko IS Yaomomo. They looked the same, they sounded the same, and acted the same. Izuku pushed through the crowd of his giddy classmates. As Momo was greeting everyone a particular squeaky  voice rang out. "Yaomomo?" Izuku called out to her.

Momo studied the boy for a second, then it hit her like a truck. "Deku?" She asked. The two locked eyes. "It's been ages since I last saw you!" The taller girl rushed to hug the shorter male. "Wow! You sure have been eating your vegetables" Deku chuckled. Momo was now about 4 or 5 inches taller than him. "The same color as your hair" Momo gestured to his hair and let him go.

"You two..have met?" Kirishima stepped forward. "Mhm, we went to the same elementary and middle school." Momo nodded with her rosy pink cheeks. "Wait, since you two knew each other as kids, doesn't that mean you and Bakugou were friends too?" Kirishima asked once more. "Bakugou? Is he here?" Momo looked around. Bakugou crossed his arms and scoffed. He didn't have time to be associating with old friends. Especially since Kirishima, Mina, Sero, and Denki had claimed him, he sure didn't want to deal with Momo, not to mention Deku was here, he had come to terms with Deku's new power, it still pissed him off, now stupid Ponytail? God how could this day get any worse.

Momo quickly yanked Bakugou and pulled him into a hug. "Katsuki! Oh I've missed you so much!" She smiled with her pearly whites. Bakugou let out a small smile but wiped it off his face quickly and pushed Momo off. "Ugh! Who the hell do you think you are?" He backed away. "Look, we're not "bffs" anymore. That was the past. We are not friends! And don't call me Kacchan." Bakugou barked, a bright red sweeping his peach skin. He stomped back to his dorm to be angry.

"He's really mad that you moved away, I think he hates you now..Sorry Yaomomo.." Deku whispered. "Oh..Well, it doesn't matter! I have lots of new friends to meet!" Momo made a big gesture to the class of 19 minus one because Bakugou walked off. "Well since I have an old friend here, and he's your friend, you all will be my friends! I am now here as Momo Yaoyorozu! Not Momoko. Call me Yaoyorozu or Yaomomo! Momo perhaps if we get closer." Momo said to all of them, with a huge smile plastered on her face.

"Soo..now that me and Yaomomo are official friends, let's have a vote on what we should do!" Mina walked over and wheeled out a huge whiteboard. "Let's hear some ideas!" Kirishima jumped up. "Beach!" MIna wrote it down. As the list began piling up it finally got to 15.

-Beach
-Pottery
-Shopping
-Go see a movie
-Karaoke
-Skating
-Ice skating
-Quirk showcasing
-See a garden
-Park

Of course, they chose to go shopping.

So every member of 1A, excluding Bakugou, the stubborn grump, each of them gathered 50-80 dollars and headed to the mall on a bus. On the bus ride there, Momo was seated next to an elderly old man. Of course, Momo stuck out like a sore thumb. "Excuse me ma'am, you look a lot like someone my granddaughter likes.." He said. "I'm Momoko, the singer, actress, and model." She sparkled. "Ah! My granddaughter, Nuri, is a big fan of yours, I have a gift for her right here..Would you mind if I asked you to sign it and take a picture?" The man held up a Momoko lightstick box and a sharpie. "Of course!" Momo happily signed the box. 'Hello Nuri! Keep shining and always smile! -Momoko' Now read the box. The man snapped a photo of him and her and smiled brightly. "Thank you so much! She'll love it!" Momo smiled at the man.

As the man got off, arriving at his destination, Momo couldn't help but feel like all eyes were on her. "Bet you get that a lot, don't you?" Ochako chuckled. "No not at all, actually, This rarely happens-" Yaomomo shrugged.

"Really? You're pretty famous-" Sero chimed in. "It's kind of..weird to approach people on the street." Momo chuckled. A collective "ah" washed over the bus. The bus came to a stop at their destination.

They all split into groups, Momo going with Mina, Ochako, Iida, and Jirou. "So, Yaoyorozu, I take it you've been in the music industry since you were young? You've collaborated with quite a few pros haven't you?" Iida asked. "I have, but let's not dwell on that! Let's focus on shopping!"
She led them to her favorite store, 3.65. She knew it seemed tacky, and the store was shabby, but she had grown to love it.

She strolled past the Momoko merchandise and cringed. She hated seeing herself on posters in public..it made her feel so..inhuman. "Anything wrong Yaoyorozu?" Jirou asked her. "Oh, nothing at all! Just..thinking is all." A small smile painted Momo's face. "So what's your deal with Bakugou?" Mina asked her. "Ashido! It is inappropriate to ask such questions!" Iida reprimanded her. "Oh it's quite alright! I was friends with him back in grade school. Izuku as well, I'm but I suppose we're not all that close anymore.." She chuckled.

"Ohh, I thought he was just like that to everyone!" Ochako inquired. "To be fair he does love Momoko's, er, your music! He works out to it." Mina giggled.

Hours passed and everyone had a successful shopping trip (though they did have to admit, Momo did spoil Uraraka a bit.)

They arrived back at the school and all settled. Momo set her bag down onto the kitchen counter and began setting all her things down. She listened to the girls and boys play video games, to the chatter, and all the noises around her. Somehow it was..soothing. Her house was never like this. It was quiet and serene, but this place was busy and loud. And she loved it.

She hummed as she set some tea into a tray and stirred. Honey. For the first time in forever she had a warm feeling in her chest.

She picked up the tray and began walking towards Bakugou's room.

Momo knocked on the door, receiving an angry grunt back. She opened the door and put the tray on his desk.

"Long time no see,"

"Kacchan."
