Izuku's friends (paintball ball)

The kitchen.

Thoughts '??'.  

Class 1A was having an irregularly calm afternoon, enjoying the last bits of their weekend when they heard Midorya enter the kitchen, talking to someone. Mina quickly stood up to investigate, because there was no one in the kitchen, save for Midoriya.

Mina's POV

Deku went into the kitchen, then I head a phone ringing. Nobody in our class really gets calls, especially in the kitchen. It's just never there, so my attention was immediately caught. After all, it Midobabe that got the call! I walked to the entrance of the kitchen, staying just out of sight from anyone in the kitchen. Midobabe was talking to someone on the phone, but the way he was talking was weird. It was like he was trying to keep it vague, like context was necessary to understand what he and the person he was talking to were talking about. They were talking super seriously too, Midobabe looked kinda angry as well. Now that I think about it, Midobabe always did weird stuff like this, like his notebook with notes on everyone in the class and every hero, and how he disappears every Friday afternoon, only returning Saturday afternoon. Is he really just in his room? I thought he was always sleeping early and laying in bed as long as could.

 "If you keep trying to get me to come to another fight I will block you. I already attend one every week, I actually have to go to school and maintain friendships here and study unlike you."

 Wtf, fight?! He goes to fights?! Are they fights that you watch or is he going and fighting people?! And he threatened the person in the phone! He doesn't threaten people!! He insulted them! Do I not know him as well as I thought of something? 

Izuku's POV

'This girl! I come to a paintball fight every week and she keeps asking me to come to more! Aargh! Why can't she understand I have priorities other than winning a paintball war! As much as I want to I have stupid school! Well, I probably shouldn't call school stupid. I've spent most of my life dreaming of attending school here.'

"I'm hanging up now, I'm gonna go eat dinner. Goodbye."

Third person 

Phone being removed from his ear, Midoriya moved towards the fridge to rummage through it when he noticed a tuft of pink hair around the corner, just barely visible. 

"Mina? What are you doing?"

"A-ah! Well, I-I fell! Yeaah, fell!"

Midoriya tilted his head in confusion, not really buying her story.

"Why didn't I hear you fall then? And why were you just sitting there, why didn't you get up?"

"Ummm, I've gotta go!"

Mina scurried away quickly, straight to Hagakure's dorm room. 

"Wonder what that was all about."

Izuku was genuinely confused about what had just happened until he realized she must have heard his conversation. Izuku is smart enough to know that the way he worded things it sounded a bit like he was in some sort of gang.

Izuku's POV

'Omg, she probably thinks I'm in a gang or something. That's why she was on the floor, she was listening to my phone call! Shit! What if she thinks I'm the traitor? Oh no, I'm gonna get expelled! I've gotta explain to her, how tho? What if she wasn't eavesdropping and I end up sounding really weird?! Wait, maybe I can just invite her to a paintball fight, then if she was listening she won't think I'm in a gang or something and if she wasn't then she'll think I just wanted to hangout with her! Perfect! Now how to ask her? I mean, it can't be too hard right?'
