Deku took a deep breath. He was standing in front of his classroom door.

Jirou was sharing idle talk with Kaminari and Momo. Her eyes lingered to the door occasionally. He would dart away before she could see him through the glass.

"Good morning Deku!" Uraraka greeted, shifting on the balls of her feet, holding her backpack straps.

He lept back a shriek, thinking he was caught.

"U-Uraraka?" He recovered from his mini outburst. "Sorry, good morning to you too."

"Are you ok?" As she dim-wittedly walked past him, opening the door. "You seem more jumpy than usual."

He grew anxious eyes and reached out. 'The door! But, actually, I've been standing here for a while. I couldn't just stand there all day.' Beginning to go on and on, subconsciously following her. 'I mean, Jirou looks pretty relaxed. It's not like I asked her on a date, date. Just two friends hanging out. But where would we go? Somewhere quiet and peaceful, like the park, but where we won't be interrupted... Agh! It's starting to sound more like a date the more I think about it! Maybe I should just drop the whole thing. I guess it might of been pretty embarrassing to have some one sprout supportive nonsense out of nowhere.'

Uraraka sweatdropped with a smile. "I guess he's fine." As they both walked into the classroom.

Midoriya was mumbling to himself as the words began to spew out. No one understood him though. "It's not like it's really a big deal. But it kind of is. I should ease into it, eh, that sounds like I would be making a move. I-I mean it's not like I'm trying to, b-but not like I wouldn't not want to try to either." And it just kept going.

Kaminari chuckled. "There goes Midoriya again."

Jirou shrugged, trying to be indifferent. "Yeah, he probably saw a cool quirk or something." She stared at him and Uraraka as they entered. 'Everything's good between us.' Her eyes kept shifting in between Midoriya and her. 'I wonder if there's something going on with those two?' She ignored the little thought that was nagging at the back of her head. She wasn't the type to trip over other people's friends.

"So yeah I heard there's something going on between them." Kaminari's words snapped her out of her inner conversation.

"Wait, what? Them?" Jirou joined Momo's and his discussion.

Her nodded to her side, sliding his chair closer to them. "Yeah, remember that band I was telling you about? Apparently they're breaking up because the drummer and vocalist were dating the same groupie." He faced the ceiling, and took a huge sigh. "Man, that sucks."

"How regrettable." Momo had some sympathy in her eyes for a moment. "But I didn't really prefer their music, the screaming was quite shocking. Classical is great for any occasion."

Jirou had a deadpan stare at Momo. She was imagining being at a rock concert with Mozart blasting in the speakers. "Moshing to that would be fucking metal, dude."

Momo gave an uneasy grin. "Why such vulgar language?"

Kaminari shared her idea. "I bet the tea would be good too."

They both started to crack up with Momo slighty confused at their sense of humor. "Tea does sound lovely."

Jirou forgot about her situation with Midoriya for a moment. She wiped a tear of laughter off her right eye.

Deku quit his mumblings after Kacchan yelled at him to shut up. He stopped, before sitting on his desk. He glanced in Jirou's direction.

She felt someone staring and casually matched it. He tensed, accidently bumping back on his desk. She softened her eyes and her lips curved upwards.
