-Oh shit.- She thought...

Jirou froze over where she was, feeling the stares of everyone in the room. Fear started to overcome her, she started shaking. Feeling that even the first note she'll play it wrong. A couple of seconds felt like hours, so much so that the public started to wonder why she was taking her time. Kaminari knew her too well, knowing exactly what was happening.

Kaminari: Oh no.- He said with worry.

Mina: What's happening? Why she is taking too long to start?- Mina asked, raising one eyebrow, trying to understand the situation.

Kaminari: Oh shit, I need to help her.- He said standing up from his seat

Kirishima: What's going on bro?

Kaminari: Stage fright.- He answered.

Kirishima: Didn't she overcome that last year during the School Festival? This is not even a fraction of the people from then.

Kirishima had a point. But the thing is that was different. She was alongside all of her friends, the whole class. All the dancers, the staging team, and the A-band. Bakugo and Fumikage giving their all for her, with Yaomomo getting her back, and Denki. Denki by her side. And Kaminari knew that way too well. So he knew exactly what to do to rescue her.

- Really Kyoka? really? I'm sure are pathetic, being able to sing in front of the whole school just a year ago, but still paralyzed in front of a few dozen...I'm the worst.- Nothing but negative thoughts flooded her mind.

He rushed to the side of the stage and climbed the stairs, grabbing an acoustic guitar, a microphone, and another stool, to sit right by her left side.

Jirou: What the hell are you doing?- She whispered to him, feeling so nervous and embarrassed.

Kaminari: Saving your ass.- He replied, whispering too.

Luckily for her, the presence of Kaminari shifted the focus of the public from her to him, giving her a little break from the pressure. But neither she nor the public would be prepared for what was about to happen.

He took a deep breath, she looked at him, feeling her heart stop.

Everything moved like it was in slow motion.

All the feelings Kaminari had for her traveled from his brain, making a quick pitstop on his heart, and then traveling to his fingers and his mouth. Translating love to music...

And then...

It happened...

You with the sad eyes
Don't be discouraged, oh I realize
It's hard to take courage
In a world full of people
You can lose sight of it all
The darkness inside you
Can make you feel so small
