They believe us to be dead

Christmas

Denki POV

Today is Christmas Day and I woke up extremely early. Half the class was there. I sat down on the sofa and waited. This year we decided to do a special type of secret Santa with ropes. Oh gosh it's snowing! Where is everyone else!

Touya POV

Yahoo... Christmas. The day of family time; it's also called. The old man was always busy at Christmas. I always had ask for money so I could get presents for everyone. Ugh, this is giving me horrible memories.

I was thinking of pretending to be sick, but that'll grab everyone's attention. Best to get it over. I walked down the stairs to find Denki just... sitting there. I crept to the kitchen, no way I'm going to... disturb him. I found half the class in there eating. I am not going to ask.

...

After everyone was down we pulled the ropes. I think it was Sero who had gotten my gift. Let's hope he enjoys his uno game. Literally no one in this dorm has an uno game that has ACTUAL cards instead of those virtual ones. I pulled in some sort of flat rectangular gift that was a bit heavy.

Eri was also there dressed up as Santa and had received a massive sword. What in the world. It must be Tokoyami's because he has a lot of weird swords in his room. I looked to the league. They had decent gifts. Shiggy had a MP3 player, Toga had a bucket hat and Twice had a water bottle that you can spray people with. Oboro had a lava lamp and was just staring at it. Sigh, I thought the Shiggy incident would have made him more mature.

I slowly ripped the wrapping paper on my gift. Let's hope it's useful. It was a tool box! What I needed! I have always wanted one since I was always unnecessarily scared to ask Power Loader to take some tools to the dorms to finish my projects. Although I am happy, Who in the world knows about me making stuff!? Only Power Loader and Eraser knows! Oh wait, Eraser. But he isn't apart of the Secret Santa!

I looked over at him; he was helping Eri to hold the sword. He noticed my eyes as well as gift and smiled back. He's definitely rigged the game. He then announced "Class, why don't you all reveal what you got for the secret Santa and who has it?" and the class agreed.

...

Turns out that the oblivious couple had gotten each other a gift. They are made for each other. And no, it's not 'shipping', it's knowledge about people's actions. Iida also got Bakuguo glasses. And everyone else had gotten normal gifts for unexpected people. However no one has said tool box yet. After everyone else said what they got for the game Eraser stepped up.

"I noticed that there was a present short on list so I bought one on Eri's behalf" he explained and he looked at me "A tool box". Everyone was eying me since they could see I had a tool box.

Oboro POV

There is definitely something behind this. If we were one present off; Why would Shota get a tool box out of everything? And he looked at Touya with the *cough cough* 'Win-win' look. Does Touya like making stuff? Does Shota know? Maybe Shota knew and he bought that gift for Touya? But wait! *Gasp* did Shota rig Secret Santa!? Well I never!

After the gift exchange we all ate dinner. There were no words to describe that roasted Chicken. As we all stuffed our faces, I noticed Shinso, who had come to celebrate, taking pictures of us. I didn't think about it at first, but I noticed that he was holding... my camera!

I looked at him with confusion and when he pointed his camera at me, he froze. He looked as though busted. I was at the end of the table so he came next to me and started a conversation. He started talking about my camera. He explained on how he had gotten it from Shota (My first book: 'Shirakumo's camera').

He pick his camera from his neck "I can show you your Dad's photos?" He said as he swiped through the photos. I secretly observed his photos. He was really good! He might be as good as me! But none of them had Shota in it...

He started to show me my photos and I couldn't help but remember all those great times where I never gotten Shota's face. Even when I did, he never smiled. It was like hunting for a rare animal doing its rare thing: The Shota cat smiling. Hehe.

I then asked slyly "Would you if I borrowed it for a quick moment?". He gave it to me but asked "Why? Do you want to take photos?". "Yes, yes I do" I said as I looked around to find Shota, he was feeding Eri.

I walked towards them with Shinso behind me. Shota was smiling. Perfect. I quickly took a picture but the flash was on so when I was done he noticed quickly. Luckily I had the picture. Shota asked confused "Why did you do that?".

I shouted "Consider this smiling image of you for my father!" As I ran to my seat grabbing Shinso's hand. Even so, I noticed Shota's smile again. He must have remembered.

Today is a great Christmas!
