Once everyone was done. Ms. Yano wanted everyone to get their chairs so they could sit with their partners face to face.

"Now what..." Bakugo groaned running his hands down his face.

"Along with your partner you're going to hold each other's gaze for a minimum of at least 60 seconds."

"Huh? How is that going to help?" Kaminari asks with a nervous chuckle looking back at Jirou.

"Actually, eye contact is a very essential form of communication, it shows you're paying attention as well showing respect." Iida says while moving his arms up and down.

"Correct Iida This is very important if you are to trust your partners. Now everyone please begin."

'What in the actual fuckkkkk!' Bakugo rolling his shoulders. 'Ok I can do this shit!' Rubbing his sweaty hands against his pants he takes a deep breath. Seeing round-face sitting in front of him with a blank expression just staring at him freaked him out. 'Shit!' Looking away he tries to pull himself together. Hearing his classmates laughing at their own awkwardness.

"I know this can feel a little weird but let's all try and focus." Ms. Yano says

"In other words, try and act mature for once." Mr. Aizawa says from his sleeping bag.

"Oh, come on Kaminari!" Jirou says rather annoyed.

"I'm trying! Don't yell at me please." He squeaks waving his hands.

Seeing Bakugo looking away for the 4th time Uraraka takes the chance to look around. Some classmates doing better than others. Iida of course doesn't look the least bit nervous sitting down as straight and serious as possible. Deku has a giant shaking smile on his face trying to hold in his laughter while Shinso just covers his mouth. Even Shoji and Tokoyami can't stop the smile on their faces. 'Huh the only ones not having an issue are Todoroki and Momo. Although she is blushing profusely.' Uraraka smiles. Looking back at her partner and tilting her head wondering what's going through his mind and why he seems rather...nervous? Seeing him shaking his head and locking eyes with her again.

'I wonder why he's so nervous...I don't think I've ever seen him like this.' Determined to finish this silly exercise she looks into his eyes again. After a while staring into Bakugos eyes, she never realized how.... beautiful they were. The pair of crimson eyes were so intense that she felt mesmerized by them. She'd never seen eyes like them before just staring at her and making it feel like everything else was just a blur. She was always so busy trying to stay out of his way since last year and never actually staring at them because he was always yelling or in a bad mood. Widening her eyes and gripping her skirt in realization. Katsuki Bakugo has beautiful eyes...

Bakugo was now sweating profusely having to constantly rub his hands against his pants. If he wasn't careful, he could blow everyone up. Looking at his class partner across from him he suddenly froze. She suddenly smiled warmly at him tilting her head to the side. One thing Bakugo could admit in that moment was how right he was that she did have such pretty brown eyes. Her eyes were big and round but what always caught his attention was how they always showed her real emotions and that always intrigued him. He suddenly saw a change in the way she was just staring at him. Not realizing his eyes softening he suddenly snapped out of it when Ms. Yano continued.

"Ok good job everyone! It took longer than expected but we all managed to pull through."

Immediately averting his eyes and clearing his throat.

"Alright everyone. We have 2 more quick exercises and then I'll let Ms. Aizawa take over." She nods towards him. "At this point in time it should be fairly easy for you to distinguish your partner from everyone else with ease. You are in your second year after all." She places her hands on her hips.
