Stolen Storm

A Girlfriend

You resist the urge to roll your eyes and keep them glued to the back of your head. In front of you were the same people who couldn't seem to leave you alone. You'd say you signed up for this, but you didn't.

"Talk to me about what?" you ask, questioning why Kirishima's smile looked especially genuine. He and the rest of Denki's group chat couldn't help but talk to you about your alleged home issues, though Bakugou was just dragged along. "Listen, Y/n, we know we're not exactly the best of friends." Kiri says. You raise a brow. "We're not friends at all." Sero nods his head. "Right. Right. But that doesn't mean we can't help you." You were prepared to deny any favors from them. "I don't need help." Mina laughs you off. "Hey, it's alright. We won't judge you. We know money isn't exactly the easiest thing for everyone." she whispers. You were totally lost. "Excuse me? Money?" Kiri pats your back but you twist your shoulder away from him. "Hey- oh. That's okay. Don't be embarrassed. If your family struggles with cash—" You interrupt. "We don't. I have no clue where you're getting that from."

The group was almost as confused as you were. With your arms crossed, you wait expectantly as you watch them analyze you. It was almost like a staring contest. Bakugou scoffs. "She's not bluffing." Sero was trying to fill in the plot holes. "But Denki said he was going to her place because she needed his help?!" You furrow your brows. "No, why would he say that? That's not why he's been coming over."

From the corner of your eye, you see two approaching figures, one chasing after the other. You turn your head. "Did you just say he's been going to your house?!" the girl screams at you. Without a thought, you step back to get away from her. "Who wants to know?" You glance to her side and see Denki standing there. "Who does it look like?!" she yells. You back up again, not being down to throw any punches.

Pony Tsunotori. You'd only ever seen her from afar, and even then, it was only due to the horns that she had gotten a second of your attention.

"What are you doing with my Denki at your house so much?!" You weren't picking up what she was putting down. "Oh? Do you own him?" She narrows her eyes at you and makes a step forward but Denki grabs her. "Pony, chill out!" She wriggles free from his grasp and shoves him in his chest. "Don't tell me to chill, Denki! What were you doing at her house?!" He looks at you then quickly back at her. "She just needed my help, babe. I told you. Remember?" he mutters, only so she'd hear. The curve of his eyebrows and tone of his voice seemed to be an attempt to signal something to her. It proved to be pointless because she shouted it out right after.

"Why would she specifically need your help?!" You scoff. "Tch. His help? If anything, he needed my help and I was and have been nice enough to help him out." Everyone gasps and Pony's eyes were practically out of their sockets. "Help you out?! What the heck?!" You didn't understand the reason for all the dramatic reactions. "What's the problem with giving Kaminari some extra help?" you ask. It did not help the situation.

"The problem is that Kaminari has a girlfriend!"

Pony snaps. You blink at her, then momentarily take a look at everyone else before returning to her. "So? I'm sure with the way he is, he has a lot of those?" Her eyes widen and her face gets redder in fury. "You little—" She runs to pounce on you but Denki catches her. "No, no, hey!" She struggles against him. You step backwards for a third time, since she'd gotten close enough to almost reach you. "Woah what's up with you? You're mad he has other girl friends? I'm not one of them so I really don't see why—"

You halt, being dragged farther from Pony. "Sero what the heck? Get off." you grumble, making him let go. "I'm sorry but you weren't helping." he says. You roll your eyes. "Well I don't get why she's so mad. All I did was offer Kaminari some one on one assistance. He needed it." Bakugou was near the wall behind you. "You've got to be dumber than you look if you think that's gonna fly with his girlfriend." You give him a look. "So what if it doesn't? I'm minding my business."

Bakugou looks at Sero and smirks, plotting. Sero decides to play into it. "Go and tell her then." Bakugou says. Sero nods. "Yeah.. Um. Tell her how Denks having a girlfriend has nothing to do with you." Katsuki grabs your shoulder. "Yeah and say that you'll do what you want." You brush him off. "One. Don't touch me. Two. What's that gonna do?" Sero nods. "She'll realize she can't control you and she'll buzz off." You sigh. "I guess so."

As you approach for the second time, she locks eyes with the one you had exposed. She looked like she was ready to claw your eyes out at any minute. Sero and Bakugou stay a few feet behind you. "Dude, you think she's really gonna say that?" Sero wonders. Bakugou shakes his head. "Nah. She's not stupid."

It was, in fact, lunch time and people around could see the commotion. People included your class 1B friends. Monoma had gone to ramble about seeing Denki and Pony arguing near a group when he realized he'd seen you there. They'd all come over to check it out.

"Tsunotori." you start. "You can be Kaminari's girlfriend or whatever, but he has several. It's nothing to do with me. So, I'll do what I want and you'll shut up about it because there's nothing wrong about what I'm doing." She gets in your face. "Nothing wrong?! You're homewrecking!" You stand your ground. "I'm what?! What are you on about?!" You'd never been familiarized with that word either.

Pony shoves you. "Stay away from my Denki!" You shove her back. "Oi! Watch yourself!" Kendo quickly interjects, grabbing you and having TetsuTetsu separate you from Pony. "Hey, hey, Pony chill. It's just a misunderstanding!" TetsuTetsu insists. You weren't being as feisty as she was, given that in most situations you kept your cool. "I'm good. I'm good." you tell Kendo and she trusted you enough to let go.

Mina looks at Denki. "Sparky, it looks like you've got to explain yourself now."

Everyone turns to him.
