Shopping Trip To Heal Your Soul chap 3

The morning after her first ever girls' night Denki went back to the 1A dorms with the number of every 1B student in her phone and a new confidence in herself that she suspected came from being fully supported by an entire group of people. No one had questioned her intelligence or gender identity and not once was she asked to charge a phone like that was the reason they hung out with her in the first place.

She had woken up and had breakfast with 1B and let Kendo do her makeup for the day before putting on a dress that one of the girls had lent her. So she was feeling herself when she approached the dorm, only to be stopped by a nervous looking Midoriya.

He was sitting on the porch with a book he quickly set aside when he saw her approaching. "Hey Kaminari, I wanted to talk to you for a minute if that's okay." She nodded and sat next to the green haired boy. "Okay, so Jirou was telling everyone that you came out as a girl and she said it was just to get an invite to girls' night, but I know you wouldn't joke about something like that. I just wanted to say sorry you didn't get to come out to me, if you were ever going to, on your own terms. I told the girls it wasn't okay for them to out you like that, but they didn't listen to me. I want you to know that I believe you and support you."

Denki threw her arms around the teen. "That means a lot, Midoriya. Thank you."

He offered her a blinding smile, "Of course! I haven't told anyone else yet, but I'm genderfluid so I know how awful it must have been for them to react like that. That dress looks great on you, by the way."

Her smile was equally as blinding. "Thank you, it's borrowed, but I think I need to buy one for myself just like it. Thanks for telling me about yourself, I won't say anything to anyone I swear, but in private just let me know your pronouns for the day and I'll be sure to use them."

Jeez, if this boy smiled any wider his face was likely to break. Of course there were tears in his eyes when he replied. "That means a lot to me, Kaminari. It's he/him right now. Um...maybe when you go to buy a dress I could tag along? I'm not really good at picking out skirts or dresses and I've always thought you had great fashion sense."

She agreed immediately, asking if he was free to go today, and suddenly she was going on a shopping trip with another trans person for the first time. They entered the dorm to get their things and notify Aizawa together. Of course, Jirou had to try to ruin her good mood by calling out from the couch. "Wow, you're really committing to the bit huh Kaminari?"

Denki sounded extremely cheery as she shouted back, "Go fuck yourself, Jirou." She kept walking, too fast for the other girl to continue the unwanted conversation. Yes, Denki planned on having an actual conversation with her classmates about their treatment of her, but for right now she was still angry and was determined to not let their shitty behavior ruin her mood.

Seeing the package sitting outside her door that contained her new uniform with a nice note from Yamada about her coming out raised her spirits even further. Thankfully, she and Midoriya were able to get permission to leave campus and slip out without any further drama. Soon they were at Denki's favorite strip mall, with the best thrift store surrounded by boutiques if they couldn't find anything they wanted on the cheap.

Spending the day with Midoriya showed Denki that she had clearly picked the wrong friends at the start of the year. If they changed, her friends would be great, but Midoriya was already supportive and funny and could tease without being mean. They had a blast trying on clothes and picking out accessories. Denki helped him find the best shades of makeup and promised to give him tips for applying it.

They went to lunch at a low-key diner before heading to a nearby comic store where they discovered they loved a lot of the same comics. It was honestly the best day out with a friend she'd had since starting at UA. They made it back with some time to spare before dinner and locked themselves away in Denki's room so Midoriya could help her pick out an outfit. Then they studied until the text about dinner was sent out and they went down so Denki could talk to everyone.
