(Midoriya POV, 1pm, Sunday the letters were found)

*In Midoriya's room*

Kacchan said he didn't love me. Or that could be a lie. I don't know... he also said he had a crush. Could he be covering up?

I sigh. No point trying to figure it out now. I write my, now third, letter.

I try to think of some rhyming words. After a good 10mins, I'm done.

I see now my crush was silly

My love for you denied

You rejected me without knowing

And I cried, cried, cried, cried.

I wondered if you were bi

Because you are a boy...

and so am I.

- You're secret admirer

I go and knock on Tyu's door- she's in the plan with me.

"Hey, I'm hungry. Do you want to go down and get something to eat with me?" I ask, making sure to show her a corner of the letter in my pocket.

"Of course, ribbit!" she replies. We set off down the hall and into the kitchen. I slip the letter onto the counter, and grab an apple.

"OK, we can go now!" I say in a falsely cheerful voice. Tsuyu nodded, replying 'OK, ribbit!'. We head back up to the dorms, and part ways. I flop onto my bed and finally, finally, allow myself to cry. Great, racking sobs that I have been holding back. I am so glad these walls are soundproof.

I hear a knock on the door. Who-

"Hey, nerd." Oh god. Kacchan? I hold my breath. "You're probably not even in there, but I just wanted to say... I'msosorryforeverythingI'vedoneinmiddleschoolandIjustwantedtosaysorry!!" (translation: I'm so sorry for everything I've done in middle school, and I just wanted to say sorry) He dropped something onto the floor. "I don't ask for you to forgive me... just that you've heard my apology." He scurried away. What in the world? Kacchan apologized?? Aaah???

I peek through the crack in the door. He had gone. I look down to see an unmarked card on the floor. I open it up and read.

Dear Izuku,

I'm sorry for everything I did in middle school. I have a habit of pushing away being mean to anyone I value. I know this isn't an excuse, but I hope you just know that I'm sorry. I hope we can be friends again.

From, Katsuki

Well, that was... unexpected. I guess we'll see if he really means that tomorrow, on Monday. I just hope we can, just maybe, be friends again....

*THE NEXT DAY!!* (time skip brought to you by the BakuDeku shippers)

(Third POV, after class)

Mina had called a meeting with the Bakusquad- Mina, Kaminari, Kirishima, and Sero (they were having this discussion without Bakugo).

"OK, does anyone know what's going on?! This morning, Midoriya said 'Morning, Kacchan!' and Bakugo did nothing!!" Mina told the group.

"Wait, I think he said 'Morning' back!" replied Sero.

"WHAT? Bakugo being polite? I didn't think it was possible", Kaminari said, covering his mouth in fake concern.

"Maybe Bakubro just decided to be nice to Midobro!" suggested Kirishima, scratching his head. "It does seem unlike him, though. Maybe Midobro is suuuuper mad Bakubro for something? You know how scary he can get when he's mad..." he said shuddering at the memory.

"No, when Midoriya's mad, he calls Bakugo 'Katsuki', remember? Bakugo basically melted into his seat when that happened. I think he broke his all-might doll or something..." Mina laughed. "Training that day was hell for Bakugo. He couldn't get up, and then got all mad. But by that time Midoriya was back to his Cinnamin Roll self."

"Hmmm.... Let's wait and see what happens" Sero said, nodding.

"AGREED!" they all replied.

(Midoriya's POV, After class)

I'm having problems with me English homework- I'm not that good with other languages. But then I remember, Kacchan is fluent in English. Maybe he can help me, and since we he apologised, he hasn't shouted at me once! I go and knock on his door.

"WHAT?" he opens the door, and his gaze softens. "Oh. What do you want?"

"Kacchan, could you help me in English? I'm having trouble..." I mumble.

"Sure. Come in." he holds the door open for me. And then we study, and he helps me. After a while, I ask "Kacchan, do you want to train together? I mean, you quirk is really powerful, and I think it would improve my quirk overall..." I ramble, going into what my friends call 'mutter mode'.

"Yeah, sure, whatever, nerd." Says Kacchan, blushing, but I don't notice. I am still thinking about how training will improve out quirks.

"Maybe we could practice in Training Building Gamma, with Awaiza Sensei's permission?" I ask.

"Sure, sure, whatever..." muttered Kacchan.

"OK. I'll ask him. Also, thanks for helping me!" I say, opening the door and leaving the room. I wonder what Sensei will say...
