She fell first, he fell harder - KAMIJIROU

Can't have him.

TW: (for those who might be sensitive) Mentions of abuse (I'm so sorry! I need an antagonist! promise its not too detailed...)

Upon seeing Jiro sulk, Kaminari couldnt help but feel a sense of of guilt. He felt like it was his fault, even if he didn't know what he did. Of course, Jiro was happy for him, to an extent of course. She knew this day would come, she didnt blame him at all, but it just happened so soon.

She thought they could still be friends until the end of school, when they became pros, thats when she said shed swore him off and tell her goodbyes. Jiro always went back and forth with what to do with her feelings. One day she said shed swear him off for good, then on other days she told herself that "Being friends" was good enough. But sometimes, when Jiro looked deeply into his eyes, she got lost in the warmth of the electrifying taze tucked in his gaze. She couldn't help but imagine what it would be like if he liked her back. But that feeling was always crushed by her own insecurieties, she may be a very stoic girl, but at heart, she was just another overthinker.

She hated how she felt, she hated that she couldnt throw away her crush, let alone, barely contain it. She hated the blistering feeling, she hated how he could light up her world. But at the same time, she couldnt help but give in, she loved feeling giddy in her room after every time they talked, or spent time together, she loved it when he would say things to make her laugh, because they'd always stick with her as if his voice had been recorded. She liked him, thank god she didn't love him. Not yet at least...

To him, it was no different, however, he just hadn't finished the puzzle. He liked spending time with her, he liked her so much he couldnt describe it. He just didnt have the right words, or ideas to describe how he felt about her. He knew he wanted to be with her, but didn't know how he wanted to be with her. All he knew is that he never wanted to loose her. As of now however, he had no plan. All he could do was just watch her from afar. Likewise, Jiro also had the same idea. _________________*__________________

After explaining to the girls, they all felt so much concern. They all sat in silence in an empty classroom, forgetting that the school day had ended. "Jiro is usually never the type to stress about a guy right?" Asui asked pointing a finger on her chin. "yeah your're right.." Uraraka mumbled.

Momo suddenly spoke up. "Ive always known there was something going on with that girl, regurading Kaminari-kun. However, every time I ask, it was always the same. She always just tells me they're 'just friends' so I stopped bothering her about it... So, when I observed that he had started dating Shiozaki-san, I thought nothing would happen...I feel like such a failiure as a friend." She sulked as the girls walked over to comfort Yaoyorozu. "Momo! You're her best friend! dont say things like that, you always are so respectful of all of us!" Mina chimmed in as the others nodded. "Thank you, but you're proving my point, Ashido-san. As her best friend, I shouldve noticed beforehand..." Mina blew air into her cheeks, "That's not the point at all! I just got hit by chance when I saw Jiro cry! That's why im here now to tell you all my findings once I was sure something happened!!! So dont beat yourself up for it Yaomomo!" She said, folding her arms.

"Kero! You're the only one who can console her, Yaomomo." She began to tear up as Asui and Mina spoke. They all began to hug her. "I just feel so bad, because, she would always help me out with socialising normally!" They all listened. "Jiro-san was always there to help me stop being so, well, formal! I remember at the start, I always sounded like a stuck-up noble, always correcting others..." "aww, yaomomo..." ochako hummed as she listened. "But now, here I am, talking to all of you, even if back then, I would have avoided even trying... She really made me see a different side to everything!"

Kaminari loitered around the halls, waiting for Shiozaki to finish talking to her friend. He then started to hear the girls talking really loud, comforting Momo. But upon hearing that they were talking about Jiro, he huddled to the side of the doorframe, attempting to be descreate and listen in. Maybe he could understand what Jiro might be going through.
