Denki's POV;
"So~ I'll pick you up at six hotstuff?"
"Uh, yeah, no thanks,"
The purple haired cutie in front of me laughed before strutting away to meet her nearby friend. I sighed loudly, earning a few glances from the students walking past. I honestly didn't care much at this point, with the amount of public humiliation that comes with my quirk, I've grown used to it.
I slump against my locker, like I usually do after class, while I wait for the others. A hand suddenly reached down out of nowhere and rubbed my hair vigorously. I jump at the contact, hitting my head of the locker in the process. I muttered 'Jesus christ' under my breath as the mysterious person sat down beside me.
"Hey~ Kaminari~" Mina sang, whipping out her phone. "So, i heard you tried to ask out Tali Shimamura..." She said, tilting her phone so I could see the screen. She was on the second year's socials. There, they were already gossiping about my failure.
"That shit travels fast, huh?" I say as I tuck my knees into my chest. Great, now I was all the talk of the second years, which normally wouldn't be a bad thing, but everyone being told that I'm a useless romantic isn't exactly the best.
Mina placed her hand gently on my shoulder and stroked it with her thumb. I swear this girl can read someone's emotions like a book!
My free shoulder was suddenly slammed down in a not aggressive but still painful manner. I chuckled,
"I see Mr Aizawa finally let you leave."
"Bro, it's not our fault. How were we supposed to know that cellotape wouldnt support my weight!" Kirishima complained, rubbing his neck which was still sore from his collision with the desks.
A little backstory to this. We, the Bakusquad, were bored and wanted something to do. My bro Sero suddenly had the 'brilliant' idea of taping Kiri to the ceiling... which ultimately backfired causing him to fall, hit his desk and wake up our sleep-deprived teacher. Luckily for me, Mina and Bakugo, we weren't punished as our quirks were not used in anyway. Sero and Kiri on the other hand, were to remain in class for an extra five minutes, nothing more than that because Mr Aizawa wanted to sleep.
"Anyway, Kamibro, I heard that you're all the talk with the second years, all good things I hope!" Sero joked, of course he knew about this. If one more person mentions it today, I'll actually die.
The conversation continued, however, my mind was preoccupied. Why can't I score a single person? The same things keep happening, today with Tali, last week with Jirio, Damn...why doesn't anybody want me?
As I sat there, zoning out from my surroundings, I was unaware that tears had begun forming in my eyes, occasionally dropping onto my shirt.
Mina's POV;
I was sat beside Kaminari, repurposing my phone's camera as a mirror, while I reapplied my lipgloss. Kiri and Sero were yapping on about god knows what, a conversation that I contributed to by letting out the occasional chuckles or mumbles.
I could hear faint sniffles coming from beside me, I peered over at my blonde friend to see tears trickling down his face. This came as a shock for me as I have never seen Kami cry before. Sure I've seen him upset and comforted him before, but all those times he hadn't shed one tear. I wanted to ask him if he was okay, but I thought that it was fairly obvious that he wasn't. I cleared my throat, causing him to peek out at me through his hair.
"Kamibabe, are you okay?"
"Yeah..why wouldn't I be?" He looked at me, confused.
"You were, uh, crying.." I say, forgetting to keep my voice low.
"Aaw is the little 1a baby crying?" A familiar voice spoke from in front of us.
I looked up, not surprised to see Neito Monoma, class 1a's biggest hater, standing right there.
Kiri and Seri broke off from their conversations, as did many other students in the area. People were fascinated by Monoma's hatred for us, always wanting to listen in on his rants.
"Back off Monoma." Kiri warned, narrowing his eyes. This man can be scary when he wants to be.
Monoma simply laughed before continuing, "Do you really need these losers to fight your battles for you? Why don't you be a man and fight me yourself..oh, that's right, you'll go dumb."
This remark caused Kaminari to tense up, Monoma must've picked up on this as he scoffed "pathetic."
Before long, me, Kiri and Sero were trying to attack the blonde bully in any way possible, however, he would simply copy what we did and give us the same damage. Kami was still sitting on the floor, with a look of complete boredom and sorrow plastered on his face. That was before Sero slipped up.
"Go cry to your mommy, you pathetic excuse of a hero!" Monoma yelled.
a crowd had begun to form around us, eager to see every second of the fight. So far, it was a miracle that we hadn't been stopped by a teacher. Nezu had made a brief appearance but merely took a sip of his tea and left again.
"You jackass!"Sero yelled," How dare you use his home issues against him! It's not his fault that he doesn't live with her anymore! Honestly, I'm surprised yours still chooses to live with you!"
Kaminari quickly jumped up, locking eyes with Sero before mouthing the word 'traitor' and taking off. I yelled after him, but before long, he was out of sight.
Sero felt extremely bad about what he had said, but honestly, so be it. I know it was an accident, but he deserves to feel bad right now.
Third person POV;
Kaminari sped through the hallways until he was safely in the 1a common area. How could Sero have said that in front of so many people!
He quickly ran to his room, ignoring all the questions from his classmates. He face planted into his pillow and began to sob.
After two hours, he sat up and looked at his phone. There were several miscalls and messages from the others, he groaned before turning his phone off and walking to the bathroom. He had missed the last two classes, but he honestly didn't care. He looked at himself in the mirror, his eyes were puffy and red, his hair was a mess, and his uniform was untucked and messy.
He needed to talk to somebody, anybody, about what had happened. He didn't want to go to the other Bakusquad as they were a part of why he was upset. He rubbed his face, he knew who he would go to...

A/N: hey everyone! Angst for a first chapter damn! I would just like to say that I do not villainise Sero in anyway, I just thought that it would be a good plot starter to have a secret outed by a friend. Thank you for reading this book!!
I would just like to add that you are really appreciated and I hope you are happy!!
