(Y/N POV)

Izuku was taken away from some robots to Recovery Girl, leaving me and Katsuki, All Might a few feet away. I was staring at the ground, but heard Katsuki's breathing speed up.

He was hyperventilating.

I walked forward, but All Might placed a hand on his open shoulder from behind. His breathing immediately stopped, calming down but his eyes widened while All Might said some reassuring words, also saying "Let's go review the work". When All Might walked away, I didn't speak to Katsuki. I walk past him, silently stepping away. He stayed still for a bit, before speaking up.

"Hey." Kacchan's voice was a bit shaky but still in his regular harsh tone.

"...Don't talk to me." I say firmly, walking off and following All Might back to the Monitoring room.

I was in the classroom, back in my School Uniform. I was nervously taping my nail against my desk, hoping Izuku would be alright, not only physically but emotionally.

"Oh hey it's Midoriya! Good to see ya back, Super!" I heard Eijiro said, so I immediately shot up in my seat to look at the door, Izuku standing there with a cast.

Everyone started crowding him, "Man, I don't know what you were saying during that match, but you were all fired up huh?" Eijiro proudly said.

"I can't believe you held your own against Bakugo. He's super strong!" Hanta explained.

Mina waved her fists around, smiling widely, "You did a great job dodging!"

"You guys really turned up in the first match, so we all made sure to do our best too." Rikido Sato added in.

"The dodging was like WOW!" Mina again said.

They all started introducing themselves, first and last name.

I push past everyone, swallowing quietly as I look at Izuku's cast.

It's my fault. I wasn't strong enough and let Zuku get hurt from Kacchan. He won it for us, and also fought Kacchan the whole time. I'm too weak, too usele-

"Hey, Y/N. Thanks for your help out there.! If Kacchan fully landed that hit on my arm I think it would've been even more hurt haha." Izuku tilted his head to the side a bit, smiling and using his unharmed hand to tug at the back of his neck.

"I...." I was surprised. Izuku is always so nice.... He's so... sweet. And it definitely boosted my mood. "Thank you, Zuku..."

He blinked, laughing a bit, "Uh, Y/N I just said thank you."

"Ah.. r-right." I chuckle sheepishly, smiling, "You're welcome, I think."

"Ah, Deku! Why didn't she fully heal your injuries?" Ochaco ran up to Izuku after walking into the class, carrying a stack of books.

"Ah, well I used most of my stamina when... Um, Uraraka, Y/N, where's Kacchan?" Izuku suddenly asked, staring at Katsuki's empty seat.

I scoff, but Ochaco responded, "We tried to stop him from leaving, but he wouldn't listen. You just missed him."

I watch Izuku run, running out the classroom, "Wait! Zuku!" I internally facepalmed. Ugh, they probably shouldn't be talking. I ran after Izuku, making sure to keep my distance where it wouldn't be obvious I was following him.

Katsuki was walking out of UA, his bag draped over his shoulder while Izuku ran and yelled after him, "Kacchan!" Katsuki stopped walking at Izuku's voice, "Wait up!"
