Chapter 11: Mall Adventures

     I leaned back in my chair and sighed. Damn, the school day feels like it never ends. Don't get me wrong, I love being at U.A. and working towards my dream of being a hero. It's just the fact that sometimes my classmates could be a bit loud.

     "KIRISHIMAAA, GET THE FUCK OFF ME!!" 

     "DUDE IT WAS A JOKE CHILL!!"

     Touching my finger tips to my temples I closed my eyes in frustration. I overworked myself a bit in hero training so now I have this headache which would've gone away by now if it weren't for a certain pourcupine and his gang of misfits.

     At least I can look forward to dismissal where I can finally show Sakura around town. I have a cafe in mind then I'll take her to the mall to buy her some new clothes.

     "Hey whatcha thinking about?" Jirou asked, breaking me from my stupor to see her beautiful face.

     "Ah, well remember that online friend I told you about? Well I found out the reason they weren't answering was because they were traveling to Japan! And today I'm showing her around town!" I sputtered excitedly. Something about talking to Jirou makes me ramble on.

     "Yaoyorozu that's amazing!" Jirou exclaimed, taking my hands in hers.

      Feeling heat rise to my cheeks I nodded, "I'm gonna meet them after school and I was wondering if-"

     "JIROU WATCH OUT!"

     In a flash I pulled Jirou towards me and caught the slightly burnt notebook flying through the air. Why they throw things around is beyond me.

     "You guys need to stop messing around, you're studying to be heroes, start acting like it." I scolded, seriously their childishness gets out of hand sometimes.

     "Sorry, but hey! At least you were able to catch Jirou!" Kaminari said, taking the notebook from my hand and walking back to his clique.
     Speaking of Jirou, I looked down to see her staring at me oddly.

     "Hey are you okay? Why are you staring like that?" I asked.

     "Oh, uh, yeah I'm fine. It's just... You were really cool when you did that.." she said quietly, fidgeting with her earphone jacks.

     The redness in my cheeks increased and I only had time to stutter out a thanks before the next class started. At least me and Sakura had something to talk about now.

     "So you saved her from a flying notebook and now you're embarrassed about it?" I asked, taking another bite of my cookies and cream ice cream.

     Momo nodded and sighed, taking another bite of the cat themed cake which now looked more like road kill.

      "Then what's the problem?" I inquired.

     "The problem is that now she thinks I'm cool and stuff but I'm not! Me saving her from the notebook was a sudden reflex I had no control over, it's like the soul of some bro hero took over and said 'I got you bro' and made me seem cool but like I'm..not." She rambled, stabbing her fork into the already-practically-dead cat cake.

     "First off, stop stabbing your cake the cat's suffered enough," I chuckled, watching Momo take the fork out of the cake and eat the remains, " and so what if you can't always be cool, cool doesn't have to be your only trait you can be more than that. People are complex, if she can't love you for you then move on."

     Momo continued to chew her food slowly before moving on to the topic of her rowdy classmates

     After a while of laughing at jokes and stories we started off for the mall. I've haven't been to a mall before, not to my knowledge, so this would be a new experience. I was already mentally preparing for the amount of people there and the staring, so theoretically it should go relatively well.
