[COMPLETE] Book 1: Acidic Lover [MHA Love Story]

11

After that day Serena lived with Shoto in the Todoroki residence which was more than okay with her. She felt less stress and when she went to school she didn't see Slade anymore which gave her a breath of relief to know that her brother had been taken out of UA. When they were doing work studies under a pro-hero she chose to work under mt lady and she helped Serena out with her quirk and how to deal with different conflicts with her quirk.

When she got back to school she noticed that Shoto looked irritated about something but she didn't try to pry as she watched Shoto from afar. As it came time for their semester final exams all but Serena was teamed up with someone. She was up against Mt. Lady who she did her work studies under, she remembered everything she had learnt from the elder blond woman and she was able to hide herself rather well on her own as Mt. Lady had passed her many times before she was able to trip the elder blond woman and cuff her as her quirk disabled itself as she fell.

Serena grinned down at the elder woman as she pouted for a moment before she smiled. "Well done, Your self doubt has decreased. I'm glad to see it Acidity...Maybe one day we can work side by side."

"I hope so Mt. Lady." She said happily

When Serena got out of the training grounds Shoto was waiting for her in the school. "You did well out there today Serena, I'm proud of you for getting as far as you have."

Serena sheepishly smiled at him as she had her hands together. "T-Thank you. I honestly didn't think that I'd pass that."

"You still have that self doubt...don't you?"

She nodded her head. "Just a bit."

"Don't worry you've done so well so far Serena, don't sell yourself short."

"O...okay I'll try not to."

During lunch that day, Mina and Jiro had came up to  Serena asking her if she'd like join them in the school's swimming pool for the afternoon the next day. Serina was surprised they had asked her, but smiled and agreed to go with them girls. So the next day while Shoto was doing 'training' with the other guys, she stayed on the other side of the pool with the girls. She couldn't help but stare at Shoto as he was in his swimming trunks. It made her realize just how much all of the training had done for him.

Serena sulked more than a bit seeing just how close Momo was getting to Shoto, she had a feeling she was going to lose Shoto to Momo, even if he had told her that he had no interest in Momo. As it came to the three way tie race between Shoto, Midoriya and Bakugo Serena couldn't help but laugh seeing Shoto fall into the water as Aizawa had used his quirk to get rid of their quirks. Serena got out of the water and left the pool before shoto could get out of the water so he didn't scold her for laughing at him.

Serena knew she had gotten out of the school before Shoto had, so she was confused on what was taking Shoto so long to get out of the school until she saw that he was having a conversation with Momo and was completely ignoring her as if she didn't exist. Even after she spoke his name, she didn't get any of his attention. She just went to the estate waiting for him to get home which wasn't until later on when she was already asleep. 

The next day when they had their camp training, hearing that they would have to fight their way to the camp sight Serena used the momentum of the ground falling to her advantage as she ran as quickly as she could into the woods as Shoto was calling out for her. She wasn't going to listen to him. She had been ignoring him thus far so why does it matter now?

She chose instead to help Mina and Jiro as the three girls soon became a group that went through the woods together by the time they reached ethe camp sight it was almost sun down. Serena could feel herself being light headed as she knew she hadn't taken her night time medication yet. Once they had food she took her medication before Momo held her chart in her hand as she sat across from her.

"That the hell is this? Are you a druggie or something Ito?" Momo taunted

"Please give that back Yayorozu, I need my medication to function." Serena said tiredly

"Yeah right, you're just hiding you being a drug addict aren't you?!"

"Yayorozu leave Serina alone, she's been taking those medications since she was ten years old. She has anxiety and suicidal depression. Those medications help her mind function properly." Shoto said seriously

Yayorozu looked at Shoto shocked "How do you know about that?"

Shoto let out a stressed out sigh "Her and I have been living together since we were eight years old. And it wasn't by choice either. Now give it back and stop being such a bitch to her."

Momo threw the chart back at her and scoffed. "Whatever, druggie."

Serena just held it close to her and chose to eat a bit more and left out without a word. She didn't feel like she deserved to eat more than she already had. Shoto saw what had happened as did Denki, but it was only Denki who had chose to do something about what had happened. He grabbed Serena's plate and took it to her dorm room where he knocked on the door. She opened it stunned to see him. 

"What it Kamanari?"

"Stop letting people get to you, please eat your dinner. I know you've done a lot to help out Mina and Jiro today." Denki said as he gave her the plate of food she had at the table

"T-Thank you but...but I don't think I should eat anymore."

"Why because of Momo?"

She nodded her head. "Mhm."

"Forget her, she's acting like a cunt anyways. She's been seriously jealous ever since shoto turned her down yesterday."
