"Now that lunch is over, it's finally time to reveal the last game!" You were glaring at the teacher as he did the announcement, arms crossed and lips pursed in a pout. "But before that, there's good news for all of you who didn't make it to the finals! This is just a sports festival! So we've prepared recreational games that everyone can participate in, too!
"We've even brought real cheerleaders form America to live things up!"

"Huh?"

You blinked, looking down at your uniform and then all the other Class A girls'.

"What are they doing?" Mic asked.

Everyone gave a blank look as they stared at the actual cheerleaders.

"What's the matter, class A? What kind of fan service is that?"

"Yaoyorozu..." You patted her shoulder as she trembled in embarrassment.

"Mineta! Kaminari!" You jumped, blinking as she shouted at the boys. "You tricked us, didn't you?!"

•Flashback•

"Y/n!" Uraraka exclaimed, tapping your shoulder as you checked Midoriya in case he choked.

"Yep?"

"I know you're late to lunch and all and you barely touched your food, but we don't have much time left! Aizawa-sensei said to dress up in these!"

"Huh?" You looked at the cheer uniform and looked down with a flustered expression. "We have to..?"

"Yeah!" Hagakure said with a firm nod.

"Okay..." You waved at Midoriya. "Bye."

He broke out of his mind and waved before you couldn't see him anymore.

|Now|

Yaoyorozu dropped on the ground in defeat.

"There, there." You crouched next to her and pat her shoulder.

"Why am I always caught up in Mineta's schemes..?" She huffed. "I even used Creation to make the outfits..."

"On the bright side, it was fun." You tried to reassure.

"Those guys are so dumb!" Jirou exclaimed while throwing her pom poms on the ground.

"Well, there's still time before the finals, and it'd be a pain if things got tense. Y/n's right." Hagakure said before waving her pom poms excitedly. "It's fine! Let's do it!"

"What?!"

"I wanna do it." I said while raising your hand.

"You do?!" Jirou asked.

"You guys like this, huh?" Asui asked with a tilt of her head.

"Yes. I thought it was gonna be scary though." You nodded.

"All right, everyone! Let's have fun competing in the recreational games!" Present Mic said. "When that's over, the sixteen from the four teams that made it into the final round will duke it out tournament style, one-on-one!

"The last round is a tournament, huh? Where we fight one on one." Kirishima muttered. "I'm gonna stand on the stage I watched every day on TV!"

"Midoriya." He jumped, waving at you while avoiding making eye contact. "Huh? Are you okay?"
'Sick? Did he get sick? Mrs. Midoriya and my mom are probably watching...' "You shouldn't have come if you felt sick." You said with furrowed eyebrows, hand coming up to cup his cheeks.
"!"
"You're burning up! Why didn't you tell me?"

"I-I--"

"Now, let's draw lots to determine the bracket." Midnight said while holding up a yellow box. "Once the bracket is determined, we'll have the recreational games and then start! The sixteen finalists can choose whether or not they want to participate in the recreation. I'm sure some of you want to rest or save your strength." She explained. "Now, from the first place team--"
