Despite how much of a pain in the ass and perfectionist your teacher is, you enjoy art class. It's a period where you can spend your time relaxing and taking a break from your other classes that slam you with work.

You aren't the most talented artist, but you still work hard on what you create, and you're proud of most of the things you make. You also have Jirou in class too, which makes things a lot more fun and easier, and you don't feel as alone.

Unlike you, Jirou is a great artist. Her paintings and sketches are amazing, and you wish you could be as good as her.

She's always so critical of her work, though, which pisses you off. Like, she might say "this looks like shit" or "I hate it" and you want to smack her in the face. You don't though, just yell at her instead, or sometimes punch her in the arm.

Today's no different, with you all sitting around class, and working on your paintings. Boredly, you lean back in your seat, spotting Koda's painting across from you.

"Holy shit, look at his painting." You can't help but say to Jirou. It's a breathtaking illustration of birds flying in the woods. He's one of the best artists in your class and probably one of the best in the school.

"I'm not surprised. Koda's artwork is always amazing and also...nature themed. I don't think I've ever seen him create something without animals in it." Jirou replies, glancing over at his painting before looking down at hers, continuing with her work.

It's not long until the teacher's telling you to clean up, and you're putting your painting on the rack, and washing your hands. As you finish up cleaning, you walk over to Koda, who's standing next to his friend, Shoji.

Shoji's on the baseball team, which isn't surprising, considering his hulking figure. He's even taller than Kirishima, which is saying something. He's a talented artist too, who, unlike most of the baseball boys, keeps to himself. You think he's cute. Big, strong, and talented? It's checking off all the right boxes.

"Hey, Koda, I just wanted to say I think you're painting's really cool. And I like yours too, Shoji." You compliment with a smile.

Koda's cheeks go pink, and he struggles to stutter out a reply. Shoji puts a hand on his shoulder causing him to go quiet. "He says thank you."

You nod, and walk back over to Jirou, playing with your hair. She gives raises an eyebrow, suspicious about what you're up to. "What? I was just talking to them."

"Mhm, whatever." She murmurs, making you roll your eyes and nudge her slightly, and the two of you laugh to each other.

Just then, the bell rings, and you collect your things and get ready to go. As you finish zipping up your backpack, Kirishima and Bakugo walk over to you, ready to walk you to your next class.

Things have been good with the three of you, and you've gotten a lot closer. Especially you and Kirishima, after he told you how he wants you to be yourself with him and not be weird because of his relationship, and you talked things out.

For once, you feel like you have a lot of friends, instead of the small group you normally stick with. And while it can be nice, it can be overwhelming as well.

"Will you hurry up? We're going to be late for class." Bakugo says impatiently. "I'm going as fast as I can."

You sling your bag over your shoulder, turning to leave, but just as you do, you're stopped by someone else. "Hey, can you do me a favor, real quick."

You turn around, spotting a lanky boy with lavender eyes and wild hair to match, as well as a beanie to cover it. He's holding a camera in his hands, and his giving you a small smile.

"I forgot about this project I have due for my photography class. I have to take a picture with something in the art classroom. Can I take a picture of you?"

"Find someone else, eyebags. We don't have enough time for this." Bakugo grabs your arm, trying to drag you away, but you stop him, slipping out of his grip. "You guys go ahead.  I'll meet up with you later."

"Seriously?" The blonde boy remarks. He spent all this time waiting for you and you're not even going to walk with him?

"Don't be a baby. You guys walk with me to like every other class. It's not gonna be different if go by myself to the next one." You tell him, rolling your eyes.

"Seems like she made her choice." The purple-haired boy tells them with a grin and the two glare as they walk off, watching as he begins to take pictures of you.

"Is that good?" You ask, after his third take. He looks down at his camera, flipping through the photos, before showing you the picture. "Damn, I look good in that. Can you send me it? Like if you upload it or something?"

He laughs softly, smirking at you. "Sure. My name's Shinso, by the way."

"I'm (y/n). It's nice to meet you. Here's my Instagram, if you want to send me any of those pics." You grin, handing him your phone and showing him your Instagram.

"I'll make sure to add you on that." He nods, before handing your phone back to you. "Well, I'll see you around, Shinso."

With that, you grab your things and walk off, sighing to yourself. Man, today must be your lucky day or something, because the cute guys just keep coming and coming...

Kirishima doesn't trust Shinso. He's never liked him, ever since he and Bakugo got into that fight in freshman year. But now, he really doesn't like him.

While Bakugo went on ahead, Kirishima stayed behind to listen to your conversation. He was hitting on you. And were you flirting back?

"Hey-" Kirishima says, stepping out from the side of the hallway and walking over to you. You jump and swear, grabbing your chest. "Jesus, Kiri! You gotta warn people if you're going to do shit like that."

"Sorry, I just wanted to make sure everything's okay. Also, you forgot your binder." He hands you the binder, and you sigh, taking it from him.

"Thanks, but I'm fine. Now you're gonna be late to class because of me." You frown as you walk down the hall with him.

The halls are basically empty, with most students in class. All it takes is one teacher to see you walking together, and you'll both be in trouble. "It's not your fault. I know I might get in trouble, but still, I chose to do it, because I want to hang out with you."

"Dummy." Is all you say in response, nudging him with your elbow.

Yeah, it's pretty nice having some good friends.
