Y/N POV
The school day is over. It's time to meet up with Kirishima and go to the mall. I exit the school and see Kirishima waiting for me outside. He smiles when he sees me,
"Hey, Y/N!"
"Hello, Kirishima! How has your day been?"
"It's been okay, I really excited to go to the mall!"
"Me too!"
While we walked to the mall, we talked about video games and game devices. We also started talking about training.
"Do you like to train? How much do you train?" Kirishima asks me.
"I think training is okay, and I train quite a bit. I train when I'm bored, when I need to train, etc."
"Oh...I train a lot. It makes me look more manly!" Kirishima says flexing his muscles.
I laugh a little. I didn't think Kirishima would notice but,
"You have a nice laugh. I made you laugh! Yay!"
" *laughing more* Yep, plus ten manliness points."
"Yay!"
We both laughed.
We talked some more until we reached the mall. Kirishima took my hand and lead me to a video game store. We went inside and all I could think was...

Wow...this place is stuffed with electronics...what if this place got robbed?

"Over here you can find a Nintendo DS and games, they are portable so they might be good for you to start off with," Kirishima explains.
"Interesting..." I say examining the chips and rectangular devices.

This stuff is expensive...

"Are the used ones less expensive?" I ask.
"Normally, they are a little less expensive...if this is to much for you to pay for I can always give you mine. I have one that I don't really use anymore...you can have it," Kirishima says handing me a red DS.
"N-No...I couldn't...it's yours," I reply handing back the device.
"I insist. I won't take no for an answer," Kirishima says with a smile, grabbing my hands, that are holding the device, and gently pushing them back towards me.

Why is this person being so nice to me? I just met him yesterday and...he's already treating me like we've been friends forever...

I feel tears fill my eyes.
Kirishima notices and wears a worried expression on his face,
"A-Are you okay?"
I nod.
"...I'm just fine...thank you...Kirishima..." I reply with a small smile, I haven't worn in a long time, on my face.
Without thinking, I pull Kirishima into a quick hug. I then quickly pull away and apologized,
"Sorry...I...I'm just not used to people being this nice...thank you..."
"U-Uh...n-no problem..." Kirishima stutters out, scratching the back of his neck.
"What game should I get?" I ask.
"Oh! Umm...what about...I don't know. Let's look at the games and you pick out which one you think you'd like," Kirishima replies.
We walk over to the games and I pick out a game that looks kinda cute. It's called "Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland".

Interesting...

"Oh...I've never played that game, so tell me what you think of it!" Kirishima says while looking over my shoulder.
I look up and spot a candy shop. My eyes widen, I then start to walk towards the building.

Candy...
Candy...
Chocolate...
Lollipops...
Sugar...
Yummy...

I reach the door and enter the shop. It's like a dream come true. I then start browsing, picking up candies and chocolates I think look yummy. I walk up to the register and pay. I exit the café and see Kirishima talking to a person with dirty blond hair. When I get closer I notice it's Bakugo.
"Hi, Sailor. Hello again, Kirishima! Sorry I ran off, I saw a candy shop!" I say once I reach them.
"Don't worry about, I was gonna follow you but Bakugo stopped to talk to me," Kirishima explains.
"Hey, Knock back bastard, it's rude not to speak to someone you recognize," Bakugo grumbles.
"I did acknowledge your existence. I said 'Hi, Sailor'" I reply to Bakugo.
"I'm not a Sailor dumb##s."
"I know, but you swear like one," I reply with a blank face.
Kirishima bursts out laughing. Bakugo scowls at me.
"Hey, Kirishima!" I say turning my attention to him.
"What?" Kirishima asks, his laughter dying down.

He has such a nice laugh.

"Thank you for taking me to the mall and giving me your game device. It was a really sweet thing to do," I say softly with a small smile.
Before Kirishima can say anything Bakugo shouts,
"YOU CAN SMILE!?!??"
"Yes, I believe all humans can," I reply.
"No problem, Y/N! I'm just glad I made you smile," Kirishima replies, putting a hand on my shoulder, turning my attention back to him.
I feel my face heat up.

He..he's glad just to see me smile?

I give him a small smile.
He smiles back a large, toothy smile.
"ARE YOU TWO ON A DATE!!??!?" Bakugo suddenly shouts.
My eyes widen.
I glance out of the corner of my eye to see Kirishima with wide eyes and a face as red as his hair.
"Is...is that what this is...?" I ask, slowly turning my head towards Kirishima.
"N-No! I just thought it be fun to hang out together and get to know each other better! I just thought you'd make a cool friend!" Kirishima explains.
"Oh...okay. We can be friends!" I reply with a smile.
"Oh? Cool! You can call me Eijirou instead of Kirishima if you'd like, by the way," Kirishima says.
I notice Bakugo is still standing in front of Kirishima and me. He has a confused look on his face. The silence is  uncomfortable so I break it by suggesting,
"Hey Sailo-Bakugo and Kirishima, I was thinking of going to get some candy...do you want to join?"
"Didn't you already buy candy?" Kirishima asks pointing to the bag of candy on my arm.
"...is it illegal to buy more?"
"No..."
"Okay...How about dinner! I'm getting kind of hungry and I didn't really eat lunch or breakfast so..." I look around and see a ramen shop. "Ramen...I'm gonna have ramen..." I begin to walk towards the shop, when someone grabs my arm and pulls me back. I quickly fix my footing so I don't fall. I turn my head to see that Bakugo was the one who pulled me back. His hand was still tightly gripping my arm.
"Wait up, a##shole," Bakugo mummbled.
"Okay," I simply responded.
Kirishima, Bakugo, and I all walked to the ramen shop. We enter and are seated at a booth. I sit down and Bakugo slides in next to me, leaving Kirishima to sit in the seat across from me. We all order water. I order some really spicy ramen. I didn't pay attention to what Bakugo and Kirishima ordered, because I was checking my phone.
Amai: The Cafe is doing well, Y/N
Amai: There is really no need to worry
Me: Sorry...I just can't help but worry...
Amai: Don't worry about a thing and enjoy your date ;)
Me: THIS IS NOT A DATE!!!
Me: WE ARE JUST FRIENDS THAT ARE HANGING OUT!!!
Amai: rrrrrright....sure....;)
Me: AMAI!!!!!!!
Me: I WILL GET YOU LATER!!!
Amai: ;) Okay~ Enjoy your date~~
Me: AMAI!!!
"Amai, I swear..." I mumble.
"Who's Amai?" Bakugo asks.
"A good acquaintance," I mumble.
"Are you okay?" Kirishima asks.
"Yep, just fine," I reply.
Our food finally arrives and we are given our bowls of ramen. I slurp up some of my spicy ramen.

It needs more hot sauce...and pepper...

I grab the hot sauce that is on the table. I then notice Bakugo using his chopsticks to eat some of my ramen.
"Bakugo!" I shout.
He freezes. He quickly slurps up some of the noodles and retreats back to his ramen bowl. Bakugo's eyes then widen. His face turns red and he starts chugging his water. His face gets even redder.
"It's spicy. Correct?" I say to Bakugo.
He nods enthusiastically.
I can the waiter and order a glass of milk. The waiter is back soon with the glass of milk.
I hand the milk to Bakugo and say,
"Water makes the spiciness worse, milk is what you should drink."
He takes the glass and chugs the milk down fast.
"How...How the f##k do you eat that?" Bakugo asks.
I shrug in response and add more hot sauce and pepper to the ramen.
Bakugo looks at me like I'm some crazy person. I glance at Kirishima and he looks the same.
I shrug and continue eating.
