Chapter 39: Sports Festival (1)

Time passed in the blink of an eye. The weeks had gone by with nothing important happening, other than Iida somehow making a fool of himself while managing to drag Himi into his foolishness. It was quite a sight, with Iida trying to pry Himi off of Izuku's body as she clung to him like a koala. Said scenario happened during lunch, within the cafeteria.

Iida's reason was because PDA wasn't allowed in the school. Himi didn't care and stuck her tongue out at the blue-haired teen. Izuku just let it all happen, amused at the showing the two were giving. Needless to say, it didn't end well for the both of them. Him included, because he just let it happen.

Nothing bad, though, just Nezu tearing into him, Himi, and Iida about public disturbances and excessive PDA. One good thing that happened after that was that Himi was less clingy during school. That said, she became even more clingy in the apartment, but he'd take that than Himi glomping him for the whole lunch break in school.

It was a bit hard to eat with Himi doing everything in her power to spoon feed him every step of the way.

Izuku smiled, silent as he browsed through the locker after remembering the memory. His hands rummaged through the container for his shirt piled underneath a bunch of other things that caught his fancy. There was a bobblehead of All Might, a plushy Principal Nezu, shorts, more shirts, and finally, his gym uniform.

Grabbing the gym uniform, he once again stripped to his underwear to don the fabric, not caring for the gazes staring at him as he did so. Thankfully for his classmates' sanity, they were in the boy's locker room, and as a rule of thumb, what happens in the boy's locker room stays in the boy's locker room.

That being said, Mineta was once again being the pervy little shit he was, and boy was that a discovery for Izuku when his classmates, mostly of the female variety, all dunked on him for sexually harassing them. Then he thought back to the times he stripped in front of them without any sort of shame. Was that counted sexual harassment?

Izuku asked that question to his other male classmates, and most of them said yes. Care to guess the one who said otherwise? Yep, the purple midget. Izuku had a blast punting the living daylights out of him for trying to deceive him. He had his fill with Gwynevere, thank you very much.

"Midoriya." Izuku's ears perked up when he heard the resident frosty teen come up behind him. Turning around, he was met with an expressionless face with eyes so deep in focus, it was a miracle he didn't go cross-eyed. "Objectively speaking. You are the strongest in our class."

The rest of the males in the locker room stopped what they were doing and bore witness to the intensifying debacle before them.

"Okay? You wanna say something?" Izuku tilted his head as Todoroki took a step forward, his nose inches away from Izuku's.

"I will defeat you with only my ice." Todoroki growled and Izuku could feel the determination bubbling deep within. "I promise you that."

Izuku tilted his head to the other side, mouth formed in an exaggerated frown as he hummed with his arms crossed. "Well, okay. But what makes you think you can do that when you can't even do it during our battle trials?"

"That was a miscalculation on my part." Todoroki snarled, for the first time showing the frustration he held deep within that stoic facade. "I will not underestimate you again."

"Tch, good luck with that, half-and-half." Katsuki was quick to butt in, making Izuku smile at the bravado coming from the ash blond teen. "Izuku'll just fucking kill ya if you don't go all out."

"... Hmph." Todoroki clicked his heels and turned, his back facing both Katsuki and Izuku as he walked away and out of the locker room.

"Alright, that was weird. Anybody else feel that in the air?" The rest of the students who were finally done changing all shrugged their shoulders. Obviously, they were confused, Izuku as well, but he chalked that up to Todoroki being Todoroki. "Oh well, should we go?"
