You're playing with the big boys now

Is it gay to be in love with both of your best friends?

The next couple of days went by in a blur

All Uraraka did was sleep, eat, take a shower, and bicker with the three boys whenever they came up to her room to make sure she was alright, if she needed anything, or to just torment her with their teasing

It was hard when one of them would go all flirty with her, so you can imagine how poorly her brain would work when it was the three of them at the same time

It's not like she didn't like it, but they could go easier on her

Right now though, she was having a peaceful night, because the boys got called for something and had to leave her alone for a couple of hours until they got it done

She had assured them that she would just watch a movie or something and probably fall asleep, so there was nothing to worry about

Until her torso and small back started to hurt like a bitch

Her wounds were still healing, and she was getting better, but sometimes at the end of the day when she moved around a lot, she would feel sore all over and the pain could be unbearable

She huffs as she goes up the stairs after eating the dinner that Katsuki left for her, not even the delicious food distracting her from the feeling of her bones cracking under her skin

Yeah, she needed to do something about it

She goes to her bathroom and looks around for the ointment that Recovery Girl told her to use if she thinks that she can't handle the pain, having to kneel down to the cabinets because she can't bend over for nothing

Finding it, she sighs in relief and goes to take her shirt off, but she can barely move her arms, and she has a feeling that taking off her bindings is going to be a task

But she really needs the relief, so she sucks it up and takes her shirt off, after a good two minutes of huffing and puffing

Maybe she should just wear a jacket to make it easier to take it off

Or you could just walk around naked

She snorts at the made-up advice that Kiri would probably give her, since he has told her more than once he would be very happy to help her take a shower when Mina couldn't make it

Putting the shirt down on the counter of the bathroom, she sighs as she stares at her bindings and their complicated arrangement. She could just cut them off with scissors but the others were downstairs and she didn't feel like walking down and then back up a whole flight of stairs, she could barely survive taking her shirt off

She's about to test her luck with the bindings when she hears the door of the entrance of the apartment opening and then shutting

"HONEY I'M HOMEEEE"

She smiles at Izuku's greeting, one that Katsuki absolutely despises but that she actually likes quite a lot, it always makes her feel funny on the inside

Then she remembers the pain in her body and she's relieved that someone is finally home to help her

Usually, it's Mina who helps her with these things, but she's desperate and is willing to let him touch her in innocent ways but that will probably make her think about other things

She walks out of her room and stands at the top of the stairs "Izuku?" she calls out and hopes that he can hear her from there

"Yes darling?" he responds immediately, his head poking out at the beginning of the stairs

"Can you come up here? I need you" she tells him, not realizing how that phrase would make him drop everything and go to her

That's exactly what happens because in the next second, he's flying up the stairs and is standing right in front of her, his eyes widening when he realizes that she's only wearing a bra from the waist up "What is it? Are you hurt?" he asks, worried that something happened when they were away
