After his walk he decided to go to his cabin to grab his gym bag before heading towards the building. Working out always helped him clear his head, keeping his mind busy and focused on his goal is exactly what he needed. Peeking through the window he saw some of his classmates already there. 'Just fuckin great.' Letting out an irritated groan he just kicked open the double doors walking straight towards the dumbbells.

Looking over to the treadmills he saw his partner already there, not even attempting to make eye contact. 'Typical.' He scowls before sitting down on the bench. Gripping his dumbbell with one hand while resting his opposite elbow on his thigh he started on his workout.

Uraraka was so glad that she remembered to pack her earphones this time. It really helped drown everything out especially since she was still annoyed at someone. Even more she couldn't help but flinch when the doors slammed open, not even bothering to check who it was since she already had a feeling she knew. 'Great just what I needed.'

Letting out a deep calm breath 'Just focus Ochaco. Don't let him get to you.' It took everything she had not to turn around as he walked past her, so she focused her attention on the window in front of her. The view was truly amazing. Trees as far as the eye could see with small animals and birds making their way home to their families for the day. Watching the sunset just behind the large mountains. Without meaning to her eyes caught the reflection of the broody blond she called her classmate. He seemed rather focused on his workout. She could see beads of sweat on his forehead and with the warmer orange reddish color of the sky, making his skin glow.

Lifting her hands to her cheeks she felt them get warmer. 'What?!' decreasing the speed on the machine, she started walking trying to calm herself down for a few minutes while reaching for her water bottle. Taking out one of her earphones she hears giggling towards her left. Curiously she sees that girl Ema with some of her friends smiling and looking towards what she assumed to be Bakugo while walking. Rolling her eyes, she started putting her earphones back on before feeling someone tap her shoulder. "Huh?"

Glancing over her shoulder she saw the same black haired girl from before smiling at her as the other 3 girls joined her. Stopping her machine, she smiles at them. "Hi, can I help you with something?"

"Hey there!" The girl gives her a big toothy grin. "You're Uraraka right?" she asked.

"That's me."

"Great! I was wondering if you saw Kirishima around by any chance?"

Tilting her head curious "Kirishima?"

"Yeah." She smiles back before smacking herself on her forehead. "Oh, how rude of me I'm sorry. I'm . Nice to meet you." Extending her hand.

Shaking her hand Uraraka just nods "Um nice to meet you too."

"Sorry about not being introduced. Ema here can be quite forgetful of her manners when her attention is...elsewhere." She sends a small glare towards the blue-haired girl.

Shrugging Ema smiles "I mean can you blame me." She nods towards the other part of the gym.

Frowning Uraraka reluctantly looks to where the girls are staring now. Letting out an amused smile she sees Sato, Shoji, Tokoyami, Deku, Awase, Shishida and even Iida huddled around Bakugo as he does pull ups on the bar not even stopping once.

Smiling fondly at her friends, she can't help but let out a giggle seeing them apparently enjoying themselves.

"See what I mean. Man, if I was in that class I wouldn't be able to keep my hands off." Ema grins mischievously while watching him. Uraraka can feel her smile fading as she looks between Ema then Bakugo.
