Toga's POV;

O.M.G! I can't believe I am actually in UA! If my younger self could see me now, attending the best hero school in the country, ignoring the fact that I'm a villain and I kidnapped someone to get here, I would be absolutely amazed.

I felt a little bad for Denki-kun. He looked so beaten down and scared, needing to uphold my villainous manner, I laughed at his pain. I felt somewhat emphatic towards him, though. We both had a childhood full of criticism and mockery of our quirks.

However, he fought his way through all the name calling and ridiculing and began to progress in the art of heroism. That was something I envied of him. How did he not lose his mind as I did? Why did he not seek revenge on his tormentors, like me? Perhaps he was forced? Thoughts like this made me wonder what my life would have been like if I hadn't thrown it away... would I have been a hero, or was I destined for the art of Villainy?

I shook my head, flushing all these thoughts out of my mind. These moments, where I contemplate what I did, make my mood bitter and ill-tempered. I took a deep breath, reminding myself why I was here.

I needed to put the plan in action swiftly, though, as I believe Katsuki-kun is becoming suspicious.

Bakugo POV;

I don't trust Dunce face. Ever since he came back from that date, he's been acting strangley. I mean, this morning I saw him talking to Deku. Which wouldn't normally be a weird sight, the way he was speaking was, well.... slow. Usually, you can't understand a bloody word he's saying and, quite frankly, often sounds like he's speaking a different language.

"Bakugo, I would like to speak with you after class, please."

The sudden mention of my name caused me to jolt up in my seat. I had been mindlessly staring out the window during one of Sensei's boring 'lessons'. It startled me even more so because I've never zoned out in class before, no matter how boring, I'm always attentive.
The rest of my good for nothing class were also staring back at me, with looks that suggested I had two heads or something. Everybody almost wire the same expression, except Dunce Face. Instead, he wore a wicked smirk, his eyes locked on to me with a cold, daggering stare. Once I made eye contact with him, his looked shocked before quickly showing the same expression as the others. I exhaled sharply, He was at the other side of the room, so perhaps I wasn't seeing him correctly.

          
            ******After Class******

Once the bell rang, the class was quickly deserted, everybody eager to get to the canteen for lunch. I, however, remained seated, dreading what Sensei was going to lecture me about this time. I held my head in my hands, resting my elbows on the small desk. I began to ponder about the odd behaviour of my friend.

Usually, I feel an attraction towards him, what with him being my crush and all, but that feeling, that unstoppable instinct to take his hand and never drop it, was gone. Sure, I still think he's hot as hell, but I don't know, it feels like he's a new person. The new found urge to protect him is gone too, instead it was replaced by the urge to send him through the wall. In all fairness, I feel that way about the majority of the human race.... I think I may need to get my anger sorted out.

My thoughts were interrupted by an abrupt cough. I looked up lazily, not really giving a shit about what the tired man had to say.

"You seem distracted Bakugo. It's not like  you to zone out in a lesson." He said in a bored voice. I sometimes still wonder why he became a teacher.

"It's nothing. My minds just preoccupied. It won't happen again." I say quickly, desperate to conclude this conversation and track anymore unusual behaviour from Kaminari. God I wasn't even calling him Dunce anymore, what the hell was happening to me.

"Would you mind telling me what is bothering you? It might make the situation more clear for you."

I took a deep breath. Should I tell him what's going on? What if it was nothing and Kami hates me for distrusting him? But what if it was something serious and he gets in trouble? My mind was racing with worse case scenarios. Aizawa must have noticed my internal struggle as his eyes softened slightly.

"Bakugo.. you can tell me. I can see it is distressing you." He said, placing a hand on my shoulder, causing me to jump. Him reassuring me that it was okay to tell him was strangely comforting.

"OK.. umm... I've noticed that Kaminari has been acting rather differently. He went on a date last Friday and when he came back on Saturday morning, he was different, like a new person." I realised how stupid I sounded and half expected him to overlook it. To my surprise, he sat down on the chair infront of me and placed his elbow on my desk.

"Could you elaborate? And do you mean he wasn't in school for curfew?"

I felt like I had slipped up. The tone of which he said that indicated that Kami would get in trouble.

"W-well, yeah. He lives nearby so I pressumed he just went home. This strange guy asked him for his number and they hung out for a bit. I'm not sure if he said something to Kami but he was acting peculiarly ever since."

"Do you know who he lives with? I am aware of his family situation but I am unaware of who now looks after him."

I shook my head. He never mentioned who he lived with. Then I remembered a little detail he had mentioned before.

"He's a Pro Hero... the person he lives with." I mumbled, trying to think about who it could be. "Don't know who they are though."

He hummed in response. He told me that he would ask at the next meeting. Next, he asked more about the guy in the mall. What he looked like? Any defining features?

"He had sharp teeth, almost like a cat. Oh! And he was obnoxiously cheery."
I blurted, mimicking get sick at the end of the sentence.

"OK, thank you Bakugo. I will look in to this and'll keep an eye on Kaminari." He said, giving me permission to leave.

It felt as though a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. Whatever was happening with Kami, hopefully it would soon be a distant memory.
