Fiery Hearts (Bakugo x OC)

Chapter 13 (Code Names)

After 2 days of no school it was finally time for us to come back. On my way to school though, things were weird. I was on the train with Kacchan when some people started talking to us. "Hey. Hey you! Didnt you two fight each other in the sports festival?" A girl asked us.

"So what if we did?" Kacchan asked, glaring at her. "That was a great fight. It was so passionate. Are you two dating?" Me and Kacchan's faces turned red. "W-What are you talking about!!??" I yelled. "Shut your trap!!" Kacchan yelled. Then another man stepped in.

"Don't be ridiculous. No man would treat his girl like that! Of course they're not dating." he said. "Are you saying I treat her badly!?" Kacchan yelled. "That's right." the man said, nodding his head with his arms crossed.

"No I don't! I'll show you! Watch me!!" Kacchan then wrapped his arms around my neck and squeezed his face on mine. I turned red as a hot stove. "Awww! Look at them!!!" The girls squealed. The man had wide eyes. "Huh. I guess they are dating!" Then the whole train started squealing at how cute we were.

I had had enough. "Listen! We're not dating!!!" I shouted. Kacchan still never let go. When I looked at him he was smirking at me. It was almost as if I read his mind. His eyes said 'This is for back at the USJ when you wouldnt let go of me.'

I groaned and turned my head. After a while, I felt eyes on me. "Look, he's staring at her too!" a girl squealed. "If they're not dating, they must like each other but haven't said anything yet." another girl said. I snapped. I stood up aggressively and walked over to the girls.

"Look, we're not dating and we don't like each other. If you say another word about it, I'm gonna kill you!" I yelled. "Everybody else got that!?" Everyone in the train was scared and nodded yes. I walked back over to Kacchan with an upset face.

But something was still on my mind. Was Kacchan actually staring at me?

We were now in the classroom. Everyone was talking amongst themselves about their similar encounters on the way to school today. Then the door sung open and everyone quickly got into their seats.

"Morning." Aizawa said. "Good Morning Mr. Aizawa." The class said. "Ribbit. Mr. Aizawa, your badges are gone. That's good news." Tsu said. "The old lady went a bit overboard with her treatment. Anyway, we have a big class today on Hero informatics."

The class got really tense. "...You need codenames. Time to pick your hero identities." Aizawa said. Everyone started cheering. "This is gonna be totally awesome!" Everyone said. Aizawa activated his quirk letting us know to shut up.

Everyone got really tense again. "This is related to the pro hero draft picks that were mentioned last time we met in class. Normally first year students wouldn't have to worry about drafts, but this class is different. The fact that drafts are reaching out to you first years, pro are essentially investing in your potential.

Any offers can be rescinded if their interest in you dies down before you graduate." Aizawa explained. "So what you're saying is, we still have to prove ourselves even after we get recruited?" Hagakure said. I finally remembered her name, yes!

"That's right." Aizawa answered. "Here is how you ranked in getting drafted." Aizawa pressed a button on a remote and a poll showed up on the chalkboard. I was surprised at how many offers I got, ya know, since I lost and all.

I got 34 offers. They were all from some really famous agencies. "Despite these results, you'll be interning. Even those who didn't get offers."Aizawa said. "So, we're all interning?" Izuku asked. "Yes. You've already fought villains back at the attack on the USJ.

But it will still be great to see a real hero in action on the streets." Aizawa explained. "And for that we need hero names!" I said standing up. "Things are suddenly getting a lot more fun!" Ochako said. "Sit down, Takayumi." Aizawa put his scarf around me and sat me down.
