Chapter 5: Kyoka Jiro

Warnings: there are no trigger warnings for this chapter. Enjoy the fluff ;-)

----------------------------------------

It's Friday night and Kyoka is sitting in the common room in front of the TV. The exams are just over, and they planned a girl's night to relax after their hard efforts and as a distraction from the traitor still haunting their minds. Just like the last time they did a girl's night they watch a movie first. This time it's Brave, an old movie from before quirks existed. Kyoka just doesn't know how the witch managed to make an enchanted cake that could turn someone into a bear without a quirk. Toru is a big fan of the main character Merida and Kyoka can't blame her. Mina thinks Merida's three little brothers are fantastic, she even admits that they remind her of Kaminari, Sero and Kirishima. Kyoka can't fault her either.

Like last time, they play a few games after the movie before they each must go to their own bedroom from Aizawa-Sensei. He is very strict with the "lights-out time," but Kyoka is sure that more than half stay up for at least another hour, herself included. Today they play 'Truth or Dare' they laugh merrily with each other as they wait for Mina who had to go ask Bakugo for a pen for her challenge. They hear shouting a few floors up and a few minutes later Mina comes flying down the stairs, she plops down on her pillow again between Toru and Ochaco and proudly raises a blackened pen into the air.

"This was an extreme dare, girls." Mina giggles, "Bakugo screamed and threw the pen in my face with a mini-explosion. I don't know if it still works. And then Aizawa-Sensei caught me on the boys' side of the dorm."

"I knew this wasn't a good idea." Momo looks worried and Tsu doesn't seem entirely at ease either.

Toru and Ochaco, however, beg Mina for more details of her dare, "OMG! Mina, that was so cool!"

After a few minutes, the fun is over: "Are we going to continue playing?" asks Kyoka, having heard enough of Mina's adventure to that boys' floor.

"Sure, Kyoka Truth or Dare?" Says Mina cheerfully. Kyoka didn't expect that, she hadn't had her turn so long ago. She thinks about her choice for a moment and finally goes for Truth.

"Scared you'll have to sing again?" jokes Toru. She grimaces, yes, she wasn't going to sing again for them. Everyone was very impressed, and she was showered with positive compliments, but it was so uncomfortable, she much preferred to sing in her own room when she was alone.

"Do you have a crush on anyone? And on whom?"

'Oh no!' Kyoka hadn't expected this. What should she do now? She can't lie, because that's against the rules of the game, but she doesn't really want to admit the truth either. She doesn't want to admit how a blonde, hyperactive boy made his way into her heart.

"OMG! You have a crush on someone!" Ochaco almost falls out of her beanbag as she bounces up and down enthusiastically. "Who is it? Who is it? Do we know him?"

"No..." Kyoka tries again, but it's too late, she's already turned so red she can't deny it.

"Don't try to get out of it, Kyoka, I recognize that look out of thousands, I've been through it too." It's true, during the first month they often teased Ochaco with her crush on Midoriya, she always looked as red as a tomato. Now they were together, because everyone saw that Midoriya too became a blushing and stuttering mess around Ochaco.

Kyoka sighs, she knows she can't get out of it, "It's Kaminari" her voice is soft, almost inaudible. The contrast with the excited cries of her friends is overwhelming. She already knows that Mina is going to organize a date and that Toru won't be able to hold back her giggle every time he comes over.
