Bonus chapter | Study buddies

A/N: I said I was gonna do a special chapter today, and here it is! _(:3 」∠)_
Takes place at some point before the USJ I guess?

Slamming her head on the cafeteria table, (Y/N) let out a muffled string of curses.

The problem? She had homework. And the numbers on the page absolutely refused to make sense to her, no matter how hard she tried.

"...Are you alright?"

She lifted her head up to see Uraraka staring at her with concern. 

Pushing her books aside, she dejectedly took another sip of her drink. "I have never understood anything less than this in my life. Well, apart from why Endeavour has fans. But that's hardly relevant now.."

Uraraka gave the girl a sympathetic pat on the back as she sunk down in her seat with a sigh. "Guess I'll just resign myself to failure."

"You shouldn't have such a pessimistic attitude, (L/N)." Iida, who was sitting across from her, was predictably not happy about his friend giving up on her work. "Your grades will drop if you don't keep working hard!"

"Trust me, I know. I just can't think of anything that would help.." (Y/N) gave a rueful smile. "If you guys have any ideas, let me know."

A lightbulb seemed to turn on inside Iida's brain, as he dramatically gestured with his hands. "(L/N)! I can teach you!"

"Whoah, that's actually a really good plan! You're like the smartest person I know!" Shooting up with excitement, the girl gave him a huge grin. "Thank you so much!"

-

What (Y/N) said was true- it was a good plan. In theory, it should have worked out well. In practice, however, it was a different story.

After getting permission from Aizawa to use the classroom after school, (Y/N) was pushing some desks together to make a big enough table while Iida went to get some paper and books.

That was about when it all started to go downhill.

"I've got the-" Running through the door of the classroom, Iida tripped spectacularly over his own feet, sending various school supplies flying everywhere.

He hit the floor face first, and (Y/N) sprinted across the room to help him, meaning neither of them noticed a book hit the light and shower sparks everywhere.

"Oh, oof... Are you okay?" The girl pulled him to his feet with a grin.

"I'm okay!... (L/N), can you smell burning?" Turning around, the two students screamed in unison as they saw flames consume the desks.

"What do we do?!" (Y/N) yelped in shock, grabbing some paper and waving it at the fire to try and put it out.

"We need to proceed to the nearest fire exit!" Iida, internally freaking out, tried to pull the remaining desks out of the way to prevent them burning.

"But we can't just leave the room on fire! Aizawa's gonna kill us!" The girl saw that her makeshift fan had started to burn and dropped it hastily. "Oh, shit, fucking hell-"

"(L/N)! Language!"

When their teacher came to check on them, he found them both screaming and waving their arms as the room literally burned around them. With a weary sigh, he grabbed both of them with his scarf and pulled them into the hallway, shutting the door behind him.

-

A few minutes later, someone had finally found a fire extinguisher and now the two students were sitting awkwardly in front of Aizawa, covered in soot and looking incredibly embarrassed.

"Alright, I hope you two are aware that you've somehow caused significant damage to school property, and you're going to be punished for it. But first, how did this even happen? I trusted you two to be sensible. Well.. I trusted Iida to be sensible, anyway." Aizawa shook his head irritably.

(Y/N) was essentially drowning in guilt at this point. I was the only reason he was there, and I know how seriously he takes school... I've got to do something.

Shooting her hand into the air, she practically yelled "It was my fault! I tripped and a book hit the light. Iida was just trying to help!"

As her friend stared at her in shock, their teacher just raised his eyebrow. "Okay then... Iida, been as you didn't do anything, you can leave. (L/N), I need to talk to you in private."

-

About half an hour later, Iida was waiting for his train when he heard someone shout from behind him. Turning, he saw (Y/N), out of breath and grinning.

"Sorry I took so long, Aizawa made me clean the whole classroom..." The girl panted, even more covered in soot than before.

"(L/N)! I appreciate what you did, but it was unfair! You shouldn't have taken the blame for me." Iida frowned, seeing how exhausted she looked.

Glancing at him, (Y/N) rolled her eyes with a smile. "It's fine. I know you would have been way more upset than me if you'd gotten into trouble. Besides, you're my friend! It's the least I could do."

"I swear I will make it up to you!" Seeing the guilt on his face, (Y/N) just couldn't pass up the opportunity to mess with him.

"Hmm... how do you feel about doing my homework for me?"

"That is against the school rules and would prevent you from learning, so I unfortunately cannot-"

"I was joking!" Laughing like a maniac, she punched him lightly in the shoulder and smiled. "You don't need to make it up to me. Just next time, don't set the room on fire.. please?"
