happy new year <3

Yes I'm posting this as of class time and this was supposed to be posted at new year itself but I got carried away,,,,

so

happy belated new year!

"Hey, are you ready?" Ochako said against the door after knocking.

"Almost!" Ashido's muffled voice came from the other side.

"We're just cleaning the dorm goddamnit!" Jirou yelled. And the door swung open to reveal Ashido finally dressed and her cheeks puffed up. "Geez, happy now Jirou? A girls gotta take her time getting ready, besides it's New Year's Eve!"

"I mean you've both got a point," Momo interjected before it could've turned into another petty argument. "We should've been ready hours ago to get the omisoka over with since the rest is already waiting though I can see that we have to look our best for the countdown later." With Momo thankfully being the voice of reason, they both grunted in agreement and went along with it.

"Let's go downstairs now, I'm sure the sooner we get things done with the better," you said, jutting your head to the side to motion the elevator to them. "I honestly wanna go to the mall nearby to buy envelopes. I kinda forgot to get some during the weekend."

"No way you're giving everyone envelopes?!" Ochako spluttered in shock.

You hummed, "It sounds a bit extra but I really enjoyed the year and wanted to give away to thank everyone," you explained as you walked. "I was initially planning on buying gifts but otoshidama is much more traditional and my mom insisted so it isn't entirely my cash. It's just a thousand yen for each rather than the usual 5 or more." You stated.

"That's very sweet of you Y/n," Tsuyu smiled.

Momo had a confused expression mister with a small frown so Hagakure perked up. "Is there anything you wanna say Yaomomo?"

The raven-haired girl nodded, "I was planning on giving otoshidama as well but ten thousand isn't the usual minimum?"

"Do you need any help with that Y/n?" You heard Midoriya call out from below you but you shook your head while handing the streamers up.

"Nope, I'm goo—" you were about to dismiss him from the ladder but as you were about to pin the streamer up, it fell off your grasp and hung down from the ceiling.

Looking down, you bit your lower lip and got ready to ask help from Midoriya to assist you but before you knew it, a zoom of green past you. "I got it from here! You can take a break now!" He yelled as he zoomed up and down across the room and halls hanging the streamers. Your mouth fell slightly agape then curved into a small smile. "Thanks, Izuku!"

Climbing down, you took a small jump off the ladder and let out a small pant, brushing your arm over your forehead to wipe the sweat off. You turned around and looked to see the progress of cleaning and decorating. The common room was lively and brimming with the entire class going from here to there. As you were about to walk to check on the progress of the decorating of the courtyard where everyone was going to view the fireworks, your eyes had been covered by a pair of hands that gently layer on top yet have a firm hold.

"Guess who."

You snickered at the attempt of a steady tone but you could hear the tiny crackle of laughter being suppressed by the person.
