"Quiet everyone! Representing the students from class 1A, Bakugo Katsuki!"

A look of surprise flash across your face before a smile broke onto your lips. Almost as if he knew, Bakugo looked over to you at the corner of his eye with a glint of greeting. This little action caught by you encouraged your face to brighten.

"What? It's Kacchan?" One from then class 1A comment in mild surprise to be replied by his classmate "That guy did finish first in the entrance exam."

But their conversation was not something other students let fly by, with an annoyed sigh a female student, from another course, corrected.

"In the hero course"

This leads the males to uncomfortably quiet down awkwardly softly muttering that you picked up with your trained ears.

"Well she hates us..."

"And it's all Bakugo's fault." You heard the other statement making you feel 'mad'. With that thought in mind, a shocking pain struck the blonde guy's behind the neck making him flinch in pain. He looked around confused but couldn't find anybody who could be the culprit. But then he caught eyes with you and turned a bit pink giving a little wave with a flirty smile.

Tomodaichi noticed his actions along with a few other of your classmates and stopped you from waving back as they fiercely glared at the blonde who jumped in fear. "Don't look over to them, Toto-chan." Your classmate whispered to you with a hint of distaste directed to the class next to them.

"They don't deserve it!" Tomodaichi added making you nervously laugh at their remarks.

"If it makes you happy..." You mumble out.

But along the lines, you shamefully felt delighted that the guy was the target of your classmates' glare. Though part of you still feels bad for him. But at that moment you just want to defend your friend, Bakugo.

Standing with an indifferent face. His lips positioned in a straight line and his eyes now dulled in a bored look.

Nearing his lips to the mic, Bakugo took a small breath.

The stadium was at a standstill. Waiting in anticipation for the male's athlete pledge

"I pledge--" He started the mic ringing in the now quiet atmosphere. You felt yourself sweat at the nervous stink of emotions some students we're letting off.

"--That I'll be number one"

Almost immediately, the students roared in fury at the cockiness of the blonde. Shouting insults as backlash to his 'rude' vows.

"Why do you have to do something so disgraceful!?" His tall classmate, that is somehow very familiar to you, asked in panic waving his hand in anger.

"At least become a nice bouncy step for me to jump off of" Was his reply earning a yell of fury and annoyance from your silver friend in class 1B as he trembled in anguish. You were overwhelmed by the sudden reaction of the students around you that you barely have time to even try sucking in the energies that were swarming like bees to the last flower in the world. Even if you had tried, it seems that all the rage was fueled by the hate and irritation they hold.

'What a crowd...' You thought blankly still in mild shock as you staggered back the fast movements of the people near you causing you to bump into someone.

You both grunted in surprise. "I am so sorry--" you squeak, looking up, you came in contact with a pair of a unique shade of blue. They were alluring and mysterious yet they shined like mirrors. It truly captivated you. After a moment's notice, your mind clicked and at that, those eyes were then extremely nostalgic to look at.
