"(Y/n), your hair looks lovely today." A voice of a general studies boy rang through your ears. His fingers rang softly through your locks as he walked past you, giving you a flirty wink before rounding be a corner, causing a blush to flush across your face.

"I-I, erm... u-uh, thanks!" You stuttered out, hiding your face in your hands as your friends both snickered and sympathized with you.

You were gorgeous, both inside and out. You had a stunning personality that easily singled you out as the flawless beauty of class 1-A. While you would never admit it, everyone had already accepted it as fact.

And of course, the compliments that came with such popularity was embarrassing but guaranteed. While those nice words would make you blush and feel happy inside, there was nothing that made you want to curl up and die more than flirting. The awkward way you had to reject many hopeful boys... it made you feel awful and guilty, but what could you do?

You never said yes, because your heart was already in the hands of a certain feathered hero.

His mysterious demeanor had instantly charmed you, and unlike the rest of the boys, he didn't try to win your heart with a lame pick up line. Instead, his deep thoughts and hidden caring personality truly made you fall for him.

If he asked you out, you would certainly say yes. But he never approached you, never complimented you. In that way, he stood out more than everyone else. It made you rather sad, but you would definitely hold on to the hope that he liked you back. You decided to never say yes to anyone else, and keep on waiting for him.

. . .

"(Y-y/n), can we plan a study session t-together?" Your nervous green headed classmate asked sweetly one day after class.

"O-oh well, I'm..." You quickly glanced over at Tokoyami, hoping he would take the chance to swiftly pull you aside. But he was just sitting there, seemingly staring at his book.

"Back off fucker, she obviously doesn't wanna hang out with a shrimp like you." A sudden booming voice sounded in your ear, causing you to wince as your explosive classmate appeared next to you, roughly tugging you to his side.

"B-bakugou! That's mea-" You whined, pushing him away a bit. Sadly, this was a daily occurrence, where the boys all seemed to try to tug you to their side.

"Watch your tongue Bakugou. (Y/n) shouldn't be exposed to such language." A smooth voice came. Relief washed through you. Finally, a voice of reason that didn't have flirting on his mind...

"Why don't you come home with me? I can take care of you, better than they can." He said imploringly, firmly tugging at your hand. You groaned inwardly, Todoroki you too?

The tugging and bantering continued, with you being pulled this way and that, the guys throwing insults and compliments towards you and the others.

It was all too much. Everyone in the class was staring. Sure, the boys in your class were all attractive and appealing in their own ways, but none of them was the boy who's attention you wanted the most.

In fact, Tokoyami was still sitting there, seemingly glaring at his book. Strangely, you noticed that he didn't seem to be flipping the pages. You sighed. Maybe there was a chance that he'll notice you tomorrow.

"I'm sorry Todoroki, I'm not inters-"

"Yeah, shut the fuck up half n' half, she's mine." Your cheeks burned at how direct they were being, as you tried to squirm out of Bakugou's death grip.

"W-wait Bakug-" you stuttered.

"Shut up and come with me." He growled, nipping at your ear, causing a small shriek and a flush of embarrassment to run through you. You glanced over at Tokoyami, he was glaring very intently at the commotion happening, not even trying to disguise his eavesdropping anymore.

"(Y-y/n), I know Kacchan interrupted you earlier but do you still want to go?" Midoriya piped up hopefully, only to meet the glares of the other boys.

Suddenly, the loud squeaking of a chair being pushed back was heard. At last, Tokoyami stood up and faced the gaggle of boys surrounding you. His arms were crossed and he gave off a murderous glare.

Meeting your gaze, he tilted his head towards the door, before swiftly walking out, Dark Shadow floating behind him. You stared after him, not really believing that he was actually paying attention to you, much less telling you to follow him. Glancing at the three boys around you, you wiggled out of their grasp.

"Listen... you're all attractive in your own ways... but I'm interested in someone else. I'm sorry, but I have somewhere to be!"

And with that, you turned on your heel and quickly walked out the door, away from the staring onlookers.

. . .

You found him around the corner, leaning coolly against the wall, black feathers looking striking against the white walls.

"W-well... I'm here..." you stuttered out, stopping in front of him with a light blush on your cheeks. You were never alone with him before. Dang it, you felt like a stupid girl from some shoujo manga. But that was simply the effect Tokoyami had on you, he made you all warm and gushy inside.

"I'm sure you know why we're out here," he said with a sigh as he pushed himself up. "I'm getting kind of tired of seeing you flocked by guys all the time."

Your eyes blinked at how straight up he was being. You had expected a couple poetic lines, but you had never seen him so serious before.

"O-oh... well, it just kinda happens, I guess..." you muttered, twiddling with your thumbs. It really wasn't your fault, and it took a lot of effort to tell them to go away.

"Why don't you just reject them? They say rejection makes people stronger, anyways." He frowned, clearly a little upset.

"I did! I told them no after you left..."

"You did?" He asked in surprise. "Actually, like once and for all?"

You nodded reassuringly. After he let it sink in, a smirk of victory crossed his face, a gleeful gleam in his eyes. You suddenly noticed how close he was getting towards you, his beak closer to your face than you had realized.

"Cause they would always chase me... but I never got attention from the guy I really wanted..." you said shyly, looking down as you tried to confess your feelings.

"He's very mysterious and I can't really tell how he feels about me." You mumbled out.

"I think he'd like you to know," Tokoyami said, quickly catching on to your game. "that he'd be really angry if he ever saw you with someone else."

Your cheeks flushed darkly. He placed his hands on your wrists, effectively keeping you in place to look you in the eyes. You realized, that all this time, Tokoyami had been watching them flirt with you, his jealous feelings slowly accumulating, until they finally overflowed today.

"Then tell him... that I'm waiting for his confession." You whispered.

A moment passed, as the two of you gazed at each other, taking in the other's features up close for once. And at last, he uttered those beautiful words.

"(Y/n), will you go out with me?"

You looked into his red eyes, bursts of happiness exploding in your chest as a wide smile split your face. You had waited forever for this moment, and you nodded excitedly. He squeezed your wrists a bit tighter.

"Say it..." he murmured. "I want to hear you say yes..."

Giving him a sincere smile, you planted a swift kiss on the side of his beak, giddy at how wonderful it felt.

"Of course I'll say yes to you!"
