They land relatively close to school, as to not let anyone see them using their quirks. Uraraka lands them softly on the ground. As she fixes her hair from the violent winds, Bakugou gets an idea.

"Here," he says roughly while outstretching his hand.

Uraraka looks confused but then takes his hand in hers.

"Your hand is sweaty."

"IT'S MY FUCKING QUIRK," he shouts as he retracts his pants and tries to subtly wipe them on his pants.

"Hey! Give it back!" Uraraka says and she grabs his hand back.

He smiles and lets their fingers intertwine. The feeling still send sparks up his arm. They start walking to school in silence, and after a few minutes, Uraraka speaks.

"Katsuki?"

"Ya Round-Face?"

"Are we really gonna let everybody see us like this?"

"Hell yeah."

"...I'm nervous."

Bakugou turns his head toward her and searches her expression.

"Why? ...Deku?"

"What?! No!! ...I just... I'm nervous about what people will say. I don't want them to make fun of me."

"If they do, I'll kill them," he says nonchalantly.

Uraraka chuckles and continues walking, realizing her protests are pointless.

They walk through and immediately get weird looks from the staff. Her grip tightens on him as they continue to walk to class. They approach the door and both take a deep breath in, look at each other, and enter. Whispers travel throughout the classroom. Bakugou and Uraraka separate and walk to their desks, acting as if nothing has happened. The tension in the room is tangible. Ashido and Hagakure facially communicate with each other and swiftly walk over to Uraraka.

They stand in front of her desk waiting for acknowledgement. Uraraka, hoping that they would just go away continues to pretend to look through her backpack. Hagakure clears her throat.

"Oh hey guys!" Uraraka says as if just being alerted of their presence.

"Um what was that?" Ashido says.

"I do not know to what you are referring."

"Uraraka, stahp with that."

The auburn haired girl inhales and looks them both in the eye.

"Okay, okay. Katsu–" She stops herself, not wanting to let them know how familiar Bakugou and her had gotten. "Bakugou and I have recently uh... started to um... date?" She says this last part as a question.

"MCSCUSE ME?!" Hagakure exclaims.

"SHH!" Uraraka attempts to hush the two.

"I didn't know he had feelings other than rage!" Mina says.

"Psh, you would be surprised," Uraraka mutters under her breath mischievously.

"UM WAT?!"

Uraraka's eyes widen as she realizes the implication she has just made.

"NOTHING... all you need to know is that we started dating and I would appreciate not letting everyone in the school know." Uraraka eyes Ashido.

The door opens and in comes Aziawa.
