"Nice suit did your boyfriend pick it for you!", Bakugo taunted after he snapped out of his daze. The girls looked confused as did I.

"What do you mea-? - oh right..", I forgot how Bakugo used to call Izuku my boyfriend didn't think he still would.

"Are you dating, Ella-san?", Uraraka asked her finger on her chin wonderingly. I shook my head in rely.

"No Bakugo is just being annoying ", I said and the boy perked ready to attack me and he did verbally however my own gaze met Todorokis who eyed me suspiciously so inevitably I ignored him.

"That colour looks familiar...", he said and then he looked like he remembered something most likely our deal earlier. "It looks pretty on you". He said it so quietly yet I caught it and my face lit on fire. Did I forget to mention I was extremely conscious around him suddenly.

"Thanks", I muttered. Jeez why was I being like this. I was in my own turmoil and didn't notice Izuku's frown.

He stared at Todoroki and Ella wondering what that was all about.

————

"Ella What was that thing you did?! That was so cool!", Asui was jumping up and down along with Mina. My face flushed.

"It's nothing, just my quirk" I waved it of but my face was burning.

"So what is it- like super speed or transportation !?", Mina said her milk shake almost spilling from how her hands shook excitedly.

"I-it's stopping time", I said rubbing my neck with my hand and sipping my banana milkshake with the other.

The air quieted down as the two stared at me realising their mistake.

"S-sorry Ella"-.

"Don't be I'm completely over it, really", I smiled at them because I was. It was only in the span of a few days but I realised it was useless caring about something I couldn't control. It's like being conscious of acne. You stop caring after a bit.

After our lesson we three decided to grab milkshake which resulted on me not checking up on broken arm Izuku.

"What the deal with Midoriya?", asui asked a question I inevitably saw coming.

"You guys have known each other for a while right? Why can't he control his quirk?", Mina hurriedly added.

I froze for a second. Wha-what do I say?! He got it from Almight a few months ago?!

"He didn't use it much you see so he needs to train it a-bit",it was awkward to lie but I mean I wasn't used to it. Then again even talking to girls normally was something I wasn't use to. Gosh I sound like a teenage boy ugh.

"Hmm it's weird but it makes sense I guess", Mina shrugged and I heaved a sigh of relief mentally.

Then began endless girl chatter that was if anything completely useless but I loved every second of it.

—————

"I thought you would've visited earlier", Izuku muttered into his blanket. There was a pout on his face and his brows were slightly creased.

He seemed troubled and it's been a while since he's been clingy with me.

"Sorry I suddenly got asked out by Mina and asui", I crept closer to him and sat on his bed which he lay facing away from me on. "I was worried about you of course but you always seem to be hurting yourself a lot recently". Now my brows furrowed and unconsciously I touched his wrapped up arm.

He flinched pulling it away and I felt a pang. Why was he being so distant?

"Izuku? Why are you being so"-.

"Being so what!", he cut me off and sat up suddenly shouting in my face taking me by surprise.

"Wha"-.

"Ever since we entered U.A you and Bakugo have been acting all weird. He used to pay attention to you but not this much and then there's that other boy ...Todoroki. You act so ...so ... girly when he talks to you", his volume was high and then ended in a mutter.

My hands shook slightly. I'd never seen him react this way. It must annoy him a lot. I could explain Todoroki's behaviour but my own towards him was still a enigma to me. And Bakugo I didn't know why he acted like how he did. I shivered remembering how he acted in my house.

"Izuku ... you see I'm not sure about Bakugo but Todoroki is okay", I said it to calm him down but his head snapped upwards at that. Then lowered again slowly his expression hurt.

I had no idea on what to say because nothing was making sense. Why was he acting like this!?

"You must be close to him...".

"No I'm not!- we just talked once or twice! But"-.

"Get out". He wasn't looking at me. His hands trembled.

"Izuku listen to m"-.

"I said get out!".

The room became silent and any excuses died in my throat.

What just happened.
