~~~(Sakura's POV)~~~

I always knew my brother was going to be a strong fighter. Our father made sure of it. He wanted Shoto to be number One and saw everything as a competition for Shoto to win. I wanted Shoto to be a strong fighter, not to please our father but to protect himself.

As a girl coming from a prestigious family who was known for being rich, smart and pretty I knew the world was a hard place to fit into. I got into so many fights when I was little, trying to defend mine and Shoto's honour. I guess I don't need to do that now though.

I looked down at the battle in front of me and grinned. The match had been going on for around ten minutes now. Shoto was an absolute force to be reckoned with. My smile turned even bigger. There is no way he needs my protection now, but I'd be honoured to support him with anything.

His ice and fire flew forward together in a spiral of colours, the fire reflecting of the ice like the sun shining through fragments of stained glass. Bakugou's explosions rocked the ground as he blasted his way through and yelled "DIE!" Die? Really?

My face twisted in concern as the ice, fire and explosions impacted each other hard and dirt flew up, obscuring my vision of both boys. When the smoke cleared I sighed in relief to see Shoto okay. He was covered in bruises and his hero suit was pretty torn but he was okay.

Bakugou was standing over him and held a hand down to his opponent. Shoto took his hand and bakugou helped him up.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ICEY-HOT?! FIGHT HARDER NEXT TIME OR ILL HAVE TO KEEP KICKING YOUR ASS!" Bakugou started screaming. I giggled behind my hand knowing how Bakugou usually is.

"I tried my best Bakugou-" My brother tried to say in his monotone voice before he was cut off again.

"THE HELL YOU DID! DO BETTER AND WHEN YOUR UP TO MY LEVEL WE'LL HAVE A REAL FIGHT!"

Shoto just nodded before heading off the battle field leaving a still screaming Bakugou to follow him.

Almost all the other matches had been played and it was now time for my fight against Uraraka. She seems like a nice girl but I know that she will not go easy on me, especially if I'm reading the vibes she giving me right.

Something about her unnerves me. She doesn't seem evil or rude by any means but she also gives me the feeling that I've done something wrong to her and she's angry or upset at me.

I shook it off and focused on her infront of me. I heard Aizawa counting down from three but I still wasn't expecting her to lunge at my that fast...

~~~(Deku's POV)~~~

Sakura's fighting skills were insane. She moved so fluidly and swiftly all while doing insanely dangerous moves. Her hair became shorter as she turned it into lava and her eyes gleamed in determination. Her strong legs pushed her up into a jump and her chest moved up and down fast as sweat dripped down her collar bone...

WHAT THE HELL?! I SHOULD NOT BE THINKING THAT!!! SNAP OUT OF IT!!

I felt my face heat up in embarrassment and shame. I should be having thought like that about uraraka since she's my girlfriend but I don't feel attracted to her at all. I have to break up with her today.

I focused my gaze back upon the matched and my mouth dropped open in awe as Sakura fought. Ochaco is a formidable opponent and Sakura seemed to be beating her.

In less than 5 minutes Sakura was panting as she stood over a surprised looking and tired Uraraka. Sakura offered her hand to her and Uraraka accepted. I saw Ochaco whisper something and Sakura's face twist in confusion before both girls left the field silently.

I looked around to see my other classmates in awe and shock. No one was expecting to see Sakura fight like that. Except Todoroki. I saw he had a very slight smug grin on his face and seemed to be very proud of his sister.

"Deku!" I heard Ochaco call out my name and I turned around just in time for her to hug me tight. I cringed as I tried to wiggle out of her grip.

Breaking up with a girl who clearly cares for me is going to be a lot harder than I might have anticipated.

~~~(Sakura's POV)~~~

"Stay away from him"

"Stay away from him"

"Stay away from him"

Uraraka's words that she whispered to me at the end of the match echoed in my mind as I lay on my bed staring at the ceiling after dinner.

I was shocked and confused. Confused because I had no idea why she wanted me to stay away from someone and shocked because of how desperate and pleading she sounded when she said it.

I obviously am threatening her in some way or hurting her by making it seem like I'm taking something important. Of course I have no idea who or what I need to stay away from.

I don't want her to feel threatened by me at all. I want to be her friend. To hear her sound to desperate... it's upsetting to hear her sound like she's almost given up on something.

What ever I have done to offend her I will fix. I will make her my friend and I will not make her feel threatened. I will start spending less time with all my classmates who seem close to her since I don't know who specifically to avoid, one part of me said.

But the other was saying "Who the fuck does she think she is? Telling us to stay away from someone. She has NO RIGHT to order me to stay away from someone. She needs to SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LEARN WHAT THE WORD RESPECT MEANS!!!"

Of course screaming at her wouldn't fix anything so I'd have to resort to the avoiding her close friends choice until I work out another way to get along with her.
