"Do not forget that you have a test on everything we learned this past week tomorrow. Class dismissed."
The bell rang, and the students of U.A. scrambled to pack up and head to the cafeteria for lunch.
All but one.
Y/N groaned, plopping her head on the desk.
"Y/N, are you alright?"
Y/N looked up to see Iida looking down at her with a slight frown. Immediately, she felt her cheeks start to heat up.
"I don't know, Iida. I barely know anything that's going to be on the test tomorrow, and I'm horrible at studying. I just don't know what to do!" Y/N's head fell back onto the table.
"Well, uh, I think I know quite a bit about the topic myself. How about I help you study after school today?"
Y/N sat up straight, her eyes gazing into Iida's in wonder.
"Really? You would do that for me?"
Face flushing, Iida turned the other way, pushing up his glasses.
"Of course I would, what are friends for?"
Despite the feeling of happiness coursing through her veins, Y/N's heart dropped at the mention of 'friends'.
"Thanks Iida."

"And now you must move the 10 over and divide. Do you understand it now, Y/N?"
Y/N stared at the paper in front of her, her brain trying to process the writing scrawled over it. Suddenly, something clicked.
"Oh! Yeah, I get it!" Y/N exclaimed, scribbling down the answer in excitement.
Iida's face broke into a smile when he saw the correct answer appear on the page. "Good job Y/N!"
Without thinking, Y/N leaned over and hugged Iida tightly. The boy was shocked. With his face beetroot red, he patted Y/N on the back quite hashly.
Finally realizing what she had done, Y/N pulled away, her eyes fixated on the floor to try and hide her blush. "S-sorry about that-I should've asked."
Iida immediately starting shaking his head, his arms rapidly waving in front of him. "No, no, no! It's totally okay Y/N. Friends should be able to hug each other without the other knowing."
Friends again.
Y/N nodded, her eyes still on the ground. She looked at her watch and pretended to be shocked. "Oh no! Look at the time-I have to go."
Iida frowned. "Really? We should review the topics one more time-
-I really can't. Sorry Iida. I'll see you tomorrow!"
The boy stared at her as she gathered her things and dashed out of the door.
"See you tomorrow..."

THE NEXT DAY
"Alright class, I've marked your tests. Please come up when you hear your name."
"Aoyama."
"Ashido."
"Asui."
Y/N's stomach did a flip as the names were called. Soon enough, she found herself stumbling towards the teacher and taking her test.
She hurried back to her desk and made an effort to cram it into her bag.
Before she was able to close her bag, Bakugou leaned forward and plucked the paper out.
"Bakugou, give that back!"
"Why? Did you even see your mark?"
"No, but I just know I failed. Now give it back!"
"Tch, what are you waiting for? Just look at it! You even beat Four-Eyes!"
Dumbfounded, Y/N took the paper back and saw the 96 scrawled at the top of her paper. Her eyes widened as her hands started shaking.
"What the fuck?"
Bakugou smirked and he turned to Iida, who was sitting with Midoriya. "Oi, Four-Eyes! Y/N here beat your score!"
Y/N felt her cheeks heat up as she heard Iida come towards them. "Is this true, Y/N?" Iida asked softly.
Y/N's eyes slid over to Iida's paper, where she saw the 94.
"Y-yeah. I got a 96." She whispered.
"That's fantastic! We should go out for ice-cream to celebrate! I'm so proud of you, Y/N. Not only were you able to get a 96, I was able to be with you-
Iida suddenly stopped talking, his face turning red.
"W-what? What do you mean by that, Iida?" Y/N said quietly, not daring to hope for anything more than what she expected.
The boy buried his head in his hands. "I messed up, didn't I?" He whispered to himself.
He looked up and smiled slightly to Y/N. "I like you Y/N. That's what I mean. I've liked you ever since you walked into class on the first day and you laughed at the sight of Bakugou with his feet on the desk, and at me-who was ordering him to stop."
Iida looked away, obviously flustered at what he had just said. "I-I don't expect you to accept my confession. After all, we're just friends and we shouldn't-
He was cut off by Y/N, who stood up and kissed him lightly on the cheek. Her lips left a lingering warmth on his cheek. Shocked, Iida's hand touched the place where Y/N's lips were just touching.
Y/N smiled shyly, looking at her hands. "I like you too, Iida." She whispered.
Iida's face broke into a huge smile, and he slowly took her hand.
"How about we go out for that ice-cream then?"
Y/N opened her mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Bakugou.
"WAIT, YOU WERE LAUGHING AT ME ON THE FIRST DAY? Y/N, WHAT THE FUCK!"
