Recap of last chapter's ending-

Happily humming to myself, I walk into the grocery store as the doors slide open automatically with a ding! I grab a small basket to hold my stuff in. I scurry over to the area where the cold stuff has to be kept, which includes milk. I spot where they have the milk and open the door, pulling out a gallon of milk and placing it into my basket. I close the door and go in search of my root beer float supplies.

After I find them, I start towards the checkout lines. A bag of my favorite candy catches my eye and scurry over to the candy and grab a bag. I turn around and bump into someone.

Rosie's P.O.V

I stumble back. I look up to see who I bumped into. It's a guy my age, who has ash blonde spikey hair and crimson eyes. He glares down at me with irritation plain on his face.

"Watch where you're going next time, Dumbass!" He snaps.

I start to blush with embarrassment.

"I-I am so sorry. Please forgive me."

I meet his gaze, and after a few seconds, a tint of pink softly shades his cheeks.

"Tch. Whatever." He mumbles as he stuffs his hands into his pockets. He walks away, leaving me watch his retreating back. My face still aflame with embarrassment, I go to walk away and to a checkout line, when something catches my eye; it's a phone. That guy must have dropped it when I bumped into him. I quickly scoop it up and look for him, but he appears to have disappeared.

"Oh, poo." I mutter. How am I gonna return his phone to him? I don't even know his name. Sighing, I slip it into my pocket. I get behind a blonde woman in a check out line. I notice that an old lady gets behind me. I turn to her and smile.

"You can get in front of me, ma'am."

She smiles at me softly.

"I couldn't do that. You were here first."

I smile.

"True, but for one, you're an elder and I should let you have my spot in line so you can get home sooner, and also, you have less items than me. I really don't mind."

She lets out a sigh of defeat, then smiles.

"Well thank you sweetheart."

I blush at the name.

"N-no problem, ma'am."

I step aside so she could take my place and I take hers. I feel a soft tap on my shoulder. I turn to face a boy my age with freckles, green eyes, and green curly hair. He smiles tentatively.

"S-Sorry to bother you, but would you mind telling me your name?"

I smile at him.

"Of course. I'm Rosie. What's your name?"

"M-My name is Izuku Midoriya."

I beam.

"What a cute name!" I exclaim.

He blushes furiously at that. Oh my goodness, he's so adorable. I let out a little squeal of delight.
