"Get into a line as we enter the bus, we're going to the USJ for a field trip today." Aizawa informs us as we all stand infront the doors to a bus. Iida sets up a seating arrangement and places me next to Bakugo since everyone else is scared of him.

As I sit next to Bakugo I pull my phone and airpods out of the pocket on my belt made for them. I put my right airpod in before offering one to Bakugo which he reluctantly takes with a glare, "You better not play any shitty music" He says before putting the airpod he took in his ear.

"yeah yeah whatever." I roll my eyes before I shuffle my playlist. 'Doomsday' by MF DOOM starts playing and I turn to look at Bakugo as if asking if the song is okay. He nods at me and then turns his head towards the window, his head leaning on his palm, his other hand resting on his knee.

I scan his face for a moment noticing the faint wrinkle between his brows due to them being scrunched too often and his eyes that look calm for the first time since I met him. I take a mental note of this moment knowing that this is probably one of the only times I will see him actually relaxed.

He turns to me as the song comes to an end and raises and eyebrow as if to ask why im looking at him. "You look nice" I say sincerely with a small smile before checking my phone to see what song will play next. "you like 'The Smiths'?" I ask when I notice that 'Bigmouth Strikes Again' is next in the queue.

He nods and I raise an eyebrow, "didn't take you for a fan of them" I giggle slightly. He crosses his arms over his chest and leans back in his seat. "I didnt take you for a nice person, but you complimented me genuinely for once so-" he starts.

I quickly cut him off, "wait- Bakugo, you dont think my compliments are genuiene?" I ask hurriedly. "No? You're just a flirt." he says as if it was the most obvious thing ever. I stare at him for a second before saying "I know I joke around a lot but do you see me talking to anyone else like that?" I ask.

"Why would you? they're all extras." He responds. I sigh before saying "Bakugo when I give you compliments I'm being serious, yeah the compliments are pretty dumb and I say them in a joking manner but that doesn't mean I'm just saying them for no reason." Bakugo just looks at me for a second before saying "Wait so you meant it all those times you called me hot and asked me to choke you?"

I feel my face flush as I wave my hands around frantically, "Well yes- but no at the same time? well kind of more like a sometimes thing- like in the way where I think you're attractive because you are really good looking- I mean you would already know that obviously! but yes you're hot but I don't like you in that way just so you don't get confused- also I was joking about the choking thing! I mean im not OPPOSED to the idea- if you asked me I would have to think about it but when I said it I was just kidding-"

He slaps his hand over my mouth. "Jesus, you sound like that fucking nerd right now, didn't take you as one to get flustered" he jokes as I feel my face grow hotter. He removes his hand and laughs. "Oh I like this song." He points out when 'Ghosting' by Mother Mother starts playing. I am so embarrassed.

I let out a grunt as i'm shoved to the floor by Bakugo after the portal-man teleported me on top of him. I look around the building that Bakugo, Kirishima and I are currently stationed in and notice the villains surrounding us.

I enhance both my own and the boys strength by around 20% before launching myself at a villain and kicking them on the side of their head, knocking them to the around.

I am so glad that these shin guards prevent me from hurting after impact because not only are my kicks enough to break bones but the shin guards I use are rock solid.

I knock out about 3 more villains before quickly tying them up using some rope attatched to my belt before turning to Kirishima and Bakugo who are stood over a bunch of k.o'd villains.

"whats the plan guys?" I ask as they turn to face me. "we should totally go help our classmates" Kirishima says with a sense of urgency before Bakugo expresses his distaste for helping them, instead wanting to go beat up more of the villains in our area.

"hmm I think its best we go help our classmates." I speak before walking towards the window and leaning outside of it to see how far we are from the ground.

"The fuck are you doing weirdo??" Bakugo asks when he notices me. "Finding a way out. You seriously think we can exit that way" I say while pointing at the door being swallowed in flames. I look back out the window and feel my legs shake slightly when I notice we must be on the 8th floor atLEAST.

So what if im working to be a hero? I can still be scared of heights.

I take a deep breath out before turning back to the boys. "We have to go out the window. Do you reckon you'll be alright to jump from here Kiri?" I ask looking towards him. "He'll be fine. We should be asking how you're gonna get down." Bakugo cuts in.

"I'll jump down. I should be fine as long as I am smart about it and time things properly." I respond. "are you sure (L/N)?" Kirishima asks while reaching towards me. "Yep." I respond curtly.

Next thing I know I feel an arm wrap around my waist and im pulled out of the window, my back to the person who grabbed me. I look down at the ground beneath me and hold in a scream. I immediately turn and wrap both my legs around Bakugo's torso and both my arms around his neck.

"OH MY GOD I HATE YOU I HATE YOU SO MUCH" I yell while I bury my face into his neck while screwing my eyes shut as I feel the wind pushing against me as we fall further towards the ground. My mind is racing so much that I don't even notice when we begin to slow down, when we come to a full stop or when his arm is removed from my waist.

"tch. You gonna let go now?" I move my head back and look around as I see Kirishima standing behind Bakugo and Bakugo stood with his arms by his side and his feet planted on the floor, the floor that is a couple metres from me.

I remove my legs from his torso and place them gently on the floor before removing my arms as well. "Don't 'TCH' me Katsuki Bakugo. YOU PULLED ME OUT OF A WINDOW WITH NO WARNING." I yell before leaning towards him and whispering "plus I know you liked having me that close to you. You didnt seem to mind having your arm around my waist"

He shoves me away, redfaced, while I laugh at him and his attempts to turn his head away from both me and Kirishima. "GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME YOU DUMB EXTRA" He yells as I try to jump on him.

We fight for a minute, my right hand reaching for his face as his left hand is holding my arm away by my elbow, my left arm also being in the same position as both my feet are stood on his with him leaning his torso backwards to get away from me as I keep pressing to attempt and grab him.

I suddenly get picked up by the back of my harness and lifted off the floor before Kirishima speaks, "uhh guys we're supposed to be helping our classmates, its not very manly to be fighting like kids right now" Kirishima then places me on the ground and I nod. We begin to move as a group to go help our other classmates and Bakugo leans towards me, points at Kirishima and whispers;

"Stop trying to act all big when you were the same colour as his hair on the bus."
