You and the rest of the stage crew sat backstage at a table while the dance team practiced on stage for the festival tomorrow. You and Kirishima were the only two standing because you'd been sitting ever since Mina dragged you to the gym to practice. Stage crew didn't need to practice as to not ware out the key components of the plan. However, since you had just been added onto the behind the scenes, you needed a description of what you would be doing.
"The plan is for Aoyama to cover the whole dance floor using his naval laser. But we don't exactly have a rig to make that happen...so we want someone strong to do the job." Kirishima wrapped up the explanation as to why they needed you on the stage crew. You slowly nodded your head with a small "uh-huh".
"So you want me to hold onto Aoyama by a rope while he plays disco ball?" You inquired, cocking a brow to make sure you were understanding everything correctly.
"Exactly!" Kirishima clapped his hands together, giving you a bright grin. "If you don't think you can do it, then of course..."
The red head stopped talking after seeing the look on your face. Your eyes narrowed and a frown on your face, crossing your arms in the process. What was he talking about? Of course you could hold onto a rope with some extra added weight added onto it.
Kirishima apologized for doubting your capabilities. He slung an arm over your shoulders, giving the rest of the group a thumbs up, "Awesome! You're a dude among dudes, dude!"
Todoroki's intense stare at the two of you was almost nauseating for Sero and Koda to watch. Kirishima suddenly tightened his arm around your neck, putting you in a chokehold, with no harmful intentions, of course. You started laughing at the boy's antics. You tried your hardest to pry his arm away from you, your nails digging into Kirishima's skin. Todoroki looked like he was trying to explode the red-head's head just using his eyes.
Todoroki didn't know what it was about Kirishima, but he absolutely hated the way he was around you. Yeah, he was like that with everyone, but you specifically. Maybe it was your guys' fault for not being straight up with everyone in the first place about being together, but wasn't it obvious? Plus, Kirishima knew about Todoroki's little crush on you. Hell, he encouraged Todoroki to do something about it. So, what was going on now?
The dual-haired boy didn't know how to feel about the closeness between you and Kirishima. He knew there was no cruel intentions, but, God, his blood boiled when he saw Kirishima use his hand to rough up your hair once you were released from his hold.
You rolled your eyes in return, walking away from the red-head and towards the empty seat next to Todoroki. His face remained in a deadpan expression as you sat next to him. He was too focused on Kirishima parading around the backstage. He watched Kirishima part the curtain to reveal the dance team working on the finishing touches of their performance.
