The third match surprisingly ended up in a spare, with all the participants down. The most exciting part was Shoto unleashing his flames like no one ever saw him doing it. It was majestic. Even if the heat destroyed almost all the cameras.
Katsuki was next and he already communicated his plans to Sero, Sato, and Kyoka, making sure to knock in their mind the fact that he was the leader and they had to follow him.
Lenora sent him a flying kiss before he could enter the arena and he gave her his winning smile and a wink, making her inside twisting and twirling. She was still thinking about him calling her 'his girlfriend', but she was afraid he didn't even notice that word slipping from his mouth.
Kirishima was standing next to Lenora and didn't fail to notice that little interaction.
"Man, you guys make my heart melt every damn time," he nudged his shoulder against Len's, "things are going well?"
Len nodded, smiling, "Yes, all is well. He makes me really happy."
Denki gave her shoulders a little massage, smiling, "I never thought someone like Bakugou could make someone like you so...brighter? I mean, you're already bright by yourself but you two together are...I don't know, I'm not good with words. Man. Help me here."
Kirishima put his hand under his chin, thinking, "I'm helpless too right now..."
She sighed, passing her arms around their waist, squeezing them, "Don't worry, let's watch this match!"
Kirishima passed his arm around Len's neck, while Denki's hand slid on her hip, so now they were all so close that neither a finger could pass between their body, watching the screen where their friends were starting to move.
Katsuki was on the first line, as always, while the others were following him from underneath. Len squinted her eyes, trying to see better the surroundings.
"That looks like a trap", she mumbled and her idea found confirmed when Tetsuna's body pieces appeared all over them. Katsuki tried to blow them up while Sero made an intricate web of tape, trying to maintain some distance between the class B and their team. That plan failed since the glue kid decided to cover Sero's tape in that sticky substance, trapping them.
"Sharp boy incoming!", Denki pointed at the screen with his free hand.
Len started with her nervous jumps and they only increased when the boy went straight to Kyoka, his blades raised, ready to attack her.
Then something miraculously happened: Katsuki kicked Kyoka away, blowing up the kid from class B and saving the girl.
"YES!", Len cheered, proud that he was finally showing off his progress.
Save to win.
Win to save.
He was doing it!
"Oh! Do my eyes deceive me? Did I just witness him protecting Jirou?", Monoma appeared on their side and Len visibly tensed.
