"Ei-Eijirou-"

"Come on Y/N, you can do it."

"Please, I can't-"

You groaned as you dug your nails into the wood of the shelf, gasping for breath. Kirishima was beneath you, his hands on your hips, trying to calm you and praising you quietly.

"You're doing fine, you can handle it." he hushed, "Let's keep going."

"S-stop, it's too much... I'm gonna-"

"I'm not stopping. You just need to relax."

Kirishima tightened his grip on your hips and tried to reassure you, whispering your name to help you calm down. You gritted your teeth and held back a cry, gasping out a weak plea for help.

"How can I relax!? I'm about to, ah-"

"Hold it." Kirishima said weakly, his breath hitching.

With one final push upwards, you grabbed the basket hiding in the farthest corner of the top shelf and yelped as Kirishima swiftly lowered you back onto the ground, panting from the strain of you standing on his shoulders.

"I'm so sorry Ejirou. I honestly don't know how to help you." you admitted, beginning to stuff your clean and dried clothes into the basket.

It was five in the morning and you and Kirishima had both snuck out of your rooms to meet in the washroom on the second floor.

"It's alright," the redhead smiled, "I'll get with Mina on my own. Besides, watching you and Bakugo flirt has been much more entertaining."

Your eyes widened.

"We don't flirt."

Kirishima shook his head knowingly, "Whatever you say."

You shifted your weight from one foot to another, lost in thought. You thought about the sickness in your stomach you felt because of Bakugo. The anxiety. The nausea. The feeling you had always brushed off as hatred.

"But there's just no way, right? Me? Liking him? That's... no." you trailed off, sounding unsure of yourself.

Kirishima patted your shoulder reassuringly.

"Hey, Jirou." you smiled, "I got your clothes from the washroom."

She ignored you, walking over to talk to Setsuna instead.

Were all your best friends mad at you for yesterday? This wasn't good. When you were having breakfast, Momo and Toru ignored you as well.

"Hey," you spoke, sitting down at the table they were sitting at.

"Guys, let's move," said Toru, and you felt your heart sink as the three of them stood up and walked away to find another table.

You felt like crying.

Since all your closest friends were ignoring you, you were resigned to spending the day with Bakusquad, trailing after Kirishima like some sort of lost puppy. Sero and Kaminari were friendly enough though, seeming very set on winning your affection.

"I could treat you so well, mi vida." Sero laughed jokingly, "Come on."

"Hey- don't try to brush me aside!" Kaminari said indignantly.

You found it funny that the blonde thought he had a chance; You were never gonna get with him because Jirou already liked him.

Sero slung his arm around your shoulder, smirking at Kaminari who gave him the middle finger. You were awkwardly walking in the middle of them, Kaminari on your right and you firmly attached to Sero on your left.
