Raindrops in Summer - BNHA fanfic

Chapter Two - Last Night

Last night, was one of the worst nights of my life. And I'm not being dramatic either. I want to go up to Momo and tell her I'm sorry over and over again but I know that won't be enough.

I wish I could have a quirk that could turn back time so I could fix what went wrong.

I started getting ready for the party one hour before it began. Our dorm was bustling as it was full of six excited girls. I was quite proud of my outfit actually. I had picked out a tight peach halter neck crop top, my favourite blue denim shorts, black heeled boots and black fishnets to top the whole look off. I never usually wear bright colours but Hagakure let me borrow her top. Apparently it went well with my skin tone.

Whilst the rest of the girls were getting ready, I sat down at the desk in the corner of the room away from all the bunk beds. My black nail polish was already at the desk, which was quite convenient as it went missing the day before. As I started to paint my nails, I felt someone looking at me. Slowly, trying to not draw their attention, I looked up but Momo had quickly turned her head away from me.

I have to admit, I did look at Momo for a little while longer, admiring her well put together outfit which subtly showed off her curves.

"Jirou?" This shocked me as I was daydreaming in my own little world. "Could you come outside for a minute with me please?" asked Momo. I followed Momo out of the room, fully aware that Mina and Tsuyu were staring at me.

Outside the dorm room, Momo and I stood awkwardly next to each other, as I waited for Momo to explain why she dragged me out.

"Jirou, I have something to say that I have been meaning to tell you for a while," said Momo in a clear voice, "see the thing is I like you and I want to be more than just friends. So would you like to go out with me?"

For the second time today I was shocked. I couldn't even speak. After trying to gather the words in my head, I replied after what felt like a decade. "No," I stuttered, "I'm sorry."

Seeing Momo's face crumple made me run away.

I ran until the end of the corridor until I slumped against a door. Did I just reject Momo? This thought made me so feel so guilty. I felt sick and anxious to see her again at the party.

What had I done?
