Rescue Plan

"Okay, first we need to know where they are keeping Bakugou hostage." Yaoyorozu had our team huddle and discuss our plan, but it seemed like she was the only person who knew what to do.

"Why did we pick Bakugou to be held hostage, though?" Mineta asked as he looked at me and Yaoyorozu.

Yaoyorozu had picked Bakugou to be hostaged because she didn't see his quirk very safe for a rescue mission. Good call from her, but Bakugou complained so much, we had to literally push him to the hostage spot.

"Alright, do you two understand the plan?" Yaoyorozu looked over at Mineta, but more prominently at me because she knows I don't really pay attention much.

"Yeah, I understand! But shouldn't you go with me? You'd be safer~." Mineta said that in the most perverted voice you could think of.

"I'll be fine, you two I'm worried about. You find ways to get into trouble in the simplest situations." Yaoyorozu turned to me, "And you, you're never sure about anything. This is just a simple warning for you to trust me."

Trust...her? When do I not? It's hard to believe that she really thinks I don't trust her. That's why we have this silent rivalry. We've been teamed up more than anyone else in the class, but that's what causes us to compete against each other. But lately, whenever she challenges me to something, my heart starts pounding. It's weird, but probably normal.

"Alright move out!" Yaoyorozu flings her left arm at me and Mineta.

...

"YOU TOOK LONG ENOUGH!" Bakugou started barking at us just as we released him from the ropes his wrists were fastened to.

"You could try to be more grateful! I tried to avoid looking at Yaomomo's boobs, but I was unsuccessful." Mineta perved.

"Ew, I don't want to hear that! I'm never going to be a hostage again, I gotta blow things up!"

"Enough! It's extremely childish of you, Bakugou, to complain about something so much. Grow up, wouldya?" Yaoyorozu really doesn't hold back when it comes to scolding people.

Bakugou grinded his teeth together but in silence. I'm surprised she can make the loudest kid in our class quiet.

...

"Yaomomo! How did your team do?" Uraraka exclaimed as everyone met up in the class.

"Oh, we were successful, but I wish I could've done more. All I did was make a simple plan." I looked at Yaoyorozu astonished.

"What are you talking about?" I intervened, "You did the most out of all of us. I'm sure I did the least."

This is strange, why is my heart pounding?

I saw a small blush creep up on Yaoyorozu's surprised face. "Thanks, Todoroki." She said with a smile.

That smile. Why does it make me feel happy? Why was my heart pounding so fast at the sight of her doing anything? Do I have a fever? I should ask Recovery Girl about this.

...

I went to Recovery Girl, but she didn't notice anything wrong. That's weird because it definitely feels like there's something wrong. I decided to ask Midoriya; he always has at least one answer to every question.

As I was walking over to his dorm room, I ran into someone.

"Ouch!" I saw a black haired girl rub her head in pain.

Damn it, it's Yaoyorozu.

My heart started to pound even faster than before. I held out my hand to help her up, but as our hands touched, I realized something. She wasn't my rival anymore.

"H-here, l-let me help you up. Sorry, d-did I hurt you?" If someone else was here, they would've seen my tomato coloured face. Why was my face heating up? I didn't want to compete against her anymore. My head hurt from thinking about that for so long. She was still messing me up.

She giggled and waved goodbye to me. She's just a girl, so why is she making me feel this way? I have too many questions, but not enough answers.

...

《Yaoyorozu's POV》

That was peculiar. Todoroki seemed so flustered. Was he feeling okay? But he's not the only one who's feeling flustered. Ever since Final Exams, whenever he talks to me, my knees go weak and my head feels all fluffy. It's strange, so I ignored it. I have no idea what my body's trying to tell me, but it's getting annoying.

I find my dorm room and change into something more comfortable. Uraraka invited all the girls in class 1-A and a few in class 1-B (Yui, Kendo, Shiozaki, and Setsuna) to this new cat café across the street of UA. I couldn't turn her down, she's my friend (also cats).

I chose to wear a light pink dress with white ruffles by the neck, a large gray belt, black tights, black wedges, and my signature beige trenchcoat. My friends always say I dress too "classy", but I think it's pretty casual.

I reached the destination but I didn't see anyone there. I turned to my right then to my left, still, no one. That's odd, am I that early?

I looked around the street at the café. This cat café doesn't really look like a café. It's devoid of colour and, well, cats. I'm probably at the wrong place. But I shouldn't complain, I'll text Uraraka to know where the actual address is.

My phone isn't in my purse. I looked around in my purse more intently, but nothing. I looked around at the ground to see if I had dropped it. I couldn't find it anywhere. I'm not someone who panics, so I was calm and rational, but I needed my phone to go home. I didn't have my personal driver, Akane Rui, drive me here because it was his daughter's birthday, so I have to try to catch a taxi. But this place has barely any cars let alone taxis, so I'm gonna have to walk home, since I don't know the address to the cat café.

I picked up my purse and started to move. It was a beautiful night today, but my mother is always telling me to be careful at night, especially here in Japan. But the Moon shone so brightly with its silk-like light, that I was distracted. As I started to walk across the street, I forgot to look for cars, but figured that there were none.

Just then, I was stopped dead in my tracks. A hand firmly held my wrist to the point where it started to hurt. I felt a chill run down my spine as I was turning around to see who that was.
