1 | HER

                

i ─── her

                   
            
          

"sho," someone called beside him. and when he turned around, his breath was taken away at just the sight of her, nana terushima, smiling up at him, her brows raised and dimples showing. "how're you? oh, you look sweaty— here."

"thank you." the boy mumbles softly, allowing his company to wipe the excess sweat that dripped down his forehead— and the girl's smile had gone impossibly wider when he closed his eyes and leaned into her touch. he couldn't help it— his right side was freezing, and only she was the one to always been the one that could warm him up, "we had a test."

"on the first day?" asked nana, surprised that the heroics department had to go through something like that on their first day. but, it did explain their absence on the orientation the principal organized.

though, she wondered why it was only class a and not b. hmm.

"that explains the sweat."

"sorry." shoto didn't even know why he suddenly blurted out an apology. but, he did feel looming guilt that came afterwards, realizing something. "did i make you wait?"

the girl shook her head a quick 'no', assuring him the he didn't as she caressed both of his cheeks, and he lets her play with his face like he always does whenever she does it.

the dual-haired boy just found it quite adorable that nana hadn't changed (playing with his cheeks) since the two were in, what? junior high? it hasn't been long, and he still remembers a certain pink haired girl squeezing his cheeks as soon as they had grown closer.

even after he asked her to be his girlfriend (which still shocks her to this day), nana didn't stop and, to be quite honest, he prefers it that way.

"not long— only a few minutes, but i sort of expected it." the pinkette shrugged like it was nothing, which, really, it wasn't a big deal, "i thought the heroics department would add some extra words in the orientation. other, y'know, rules 'n' stuff. but not seeing you there had me thinking that maybe something different is going on."

she paused, lowering her hands to meet with his own, tired ones. hotandcold— it was balanced, and it didn't stop nana from intertwining both of them with her own. warm, shoto noted mentally. "i can fill you in with what i heard at the orientation. i know you anticipated it."

"that will be appreciated," his reply only made his girlfriend smile, but a blissful sigh escaped her lips when he leaned down and planted a small kiss near the corners of her lips. up until shoto gave her a quick one on her lips.

nana couldn't ignore the giddy feeling that bubbled in her chest, feeling light at just the thought of him.

"thank you, nana."

"you're welcome!" she beamed, but teasingly bopped the tip of shoto's nose, stepping back and her actions caused confusion on the other end. still, he liked it. "but— no pda inside the school! they don't allow it, apparently. well... actually, only minimal."

shoto nodded, but he still looked down at the new information, "i understand,"

seeing this, nana added with a smile, "don't worry— holding hands and hugs are allowed, and even kisses on the cheek! but not on the lips. that's an automatic warning."

"it's the first day, and i already have a warning." the boy deadpanned, but the girl chuckled before fondly ruffled his sweaty hair. just what kind of test did he do? running laps? quirk use? "this is... not good."

"i have a feeling that you're an exception since you didn't know this. you weren't even in orientation— so i think you're good!"

her words comforted him a little. the small smile on his lips said it all.

"and... you said it's only inside school," her eyes we're filled with surprise at the sudden cheek he had. she wasn't exactly used to her boyfriend saying things like that. especially that."we're outside, so... technically we're not breaking any rules." he mumbled, and hearing her chuckle in amusement was more than enough to make him better.

"still, we have to follow it."

"it's ridiculous."

"it's smart," nana corrected him, "you wouldn't want to see me peppering up kisses left and right everyday, do you?"

"i do—"

"of course you do." sighing, but only fondly and in amusement. it took her a while to realize that this was him just being honest, and not exactly all flirty or teasing. frankly, nana preferred him all honest than just fucking around. it was nice. "i'll return it tenfold if you do follow it."

"i retract my statement."

the girl laughed at that, and shoto was left in a trance at the joy of his girlfriend's laugh. he can never get tired of it. ever. "oh god— okay. another one is about bullying— quirk bullying, to be precise..."

as the girlfriend filled in everything in the school orientation to her attentive boyfriend—

snap!

"holy shit..."

they failed to realize that someone managed to grab the biggest scoop they can find with the private life of the todoroki's.
