The U.A sports festival creeped up on us like there was no tomorrow. Didn't exactly mean much to me, but it was a shock to some of the class, including Mina.

She insisted that I teach her to do the flips and stuff I do, despite me telling her that it takes years to do this stuff, not the two weeks we've got until the event. I tried my best but as the end of it she was sat on the floor sobbing because she smacked her head on the floor doing a forwards roll.

Whilst that was amusing to witness, the most interesting thing to happen was when a purple haired dude basically threatened the entire class. That was different. That kid has some balls on him, I like him. Seems like he could put up a fight.

When the festival roled around, I found out I was the festival's  equivalent to a designated driver. I was allowed to be there without actually taking part on the activities. I was allowed to join my classmates backstage. To quote Akamine, I am "their emotional support for when they get crushed."

Everybody was talking when I walked in. Since I'm not actually participating, I'm permitted to wear what I please, which is basically the same outfit I wore when I went out shopping with the girls the other week. This time I couldn't get my hair to look good in braids so I left it.

Some people were excited, some scared, but everybody seemed ready to beat the shit out of everybody else.

"Midoriya." I look over my shoulder to see Todoroki. Ah yes, I thought someone was missing.

"Todoroki, what is it?" Midoriya speaks with uncertainty.

"All Might's got his eye on you, doesn't he." Oh God here we go. "Now I'm not about to pry into why that is now but I will beat you."

"Oooh!" Kaminari starts obnoxiously. "A declaration of war from the strongest in the class?"

"Hey, man," Kirishima also butts in, "why pick a fight now? We're about to go on." He tugs on Todoroki's sleeve, and he just pulls his arm away.

"I really don't care." Wow, I know Todoroki's whole thing is being cold but damn. "I'm not pretending to be anyone's friend here."

Midoriya starts a very negative and self deprecating talk to the point where I want to ask if he's okay, but it quickly turns around.

"I'm going for the top too." He states boldly. "With everything I've got!"

I watched as the annoyance crept across both Todoroki's and Bakugou's faces. You've made a dangerous move here Deku.

After a matter of seconds the class are called to go to the stadium. I quickly mutter a "good luck" to Mina before sprinting off upstairs to watch from the stands.

I quickly find Akamine, who's sat with Aiko. Aiko's eating ice cream and I raise an eyebrow at Akamine.

"She wouldn't shut up about how excited she is, okay."Akamine rubs her face. "I know she's not meant to have sweet stuff until after a meal, but let's just call this a treat."

"The first year stage!" Present Mic's voice rings out through the stadium, distracting me from having a go at Akamine for going against my rules. "The students are coming out!"

He introduces the classes and class 1A walks out. I'm sad that I'm not down there with them, but I'm also overwhelmingly proud of them at the same time. I haven't know them long, but the fact they've got here is incredible enough honestly.

Midnight is introduced as the ref. Oh dear. I take a sip of orange juice that Akamine bought me whilst I was downstairs, listening to everything the scandelous woman says.
"Pipe down!" She yells at the students who I assume are talking about her and her provocative outfit. "Your student representative is from class 1A, Katsuki Bakugou!"
