Izuku's POV~

"Are we interrupting something?"

I lifted my head to see that Kacchan and Kiri were back. Kacchan was the one who had spoke. Kiri was clenching his jaw and his hands were both in tight firsts, resting at his sides.

"Just Mido getting some instant karma." Todoroki said. His movements had stopped, clearly sensing the tense atmosphere.

"I didn't even do anything!" I said, still under him. I had just pushed him after he laughed at me.

"You called me Snow Queen, you completely deserve this." Todoroki said, his voice monotone once again.

I pushed him off of me and moved to stand up. "You're such a drama queen." I said.

Todoroki stood up after me, brushing dust off his knees. "Why must you always compare me to a queen?" He asked exasperated.

I shrugged. "I'm not sure, you're just queenish I guess." I said, noting knowing myself. The names were just what came to my mind at the time.

"Queenish? Seriously? Out of everyone in our class, why did I have to befriend you?" He asked, more rhetorically than anything else.

"Ouch, really Todo, you couldn't be a little more-" I was cut off by Kirishima walking up to me and throwing me over his shoulder like a sac of limp potatoes.

"Whoa, Kiri! Put me down!" I said, trying to squirm out of his grasp.

"No." He said simply.

"What's gotten into you?" I asked him, still trying to get free.

"Absolutely nothing." He said, stepping into the elevator and hitting the button for his floor. Kacchan slid in just before the doors shut.

"Tch, he's jealous, nerd." Kacchan said, helping me out a bit.

I pushed myself up and looked over at him. "What would Kiri be jealous of?" I asked, noting thinking through what they had both just walked in on.

"Hm, maybe the fact Todoroki was straddling you." Kiri pointed out, bitterness clear in his voice.

I gasped at his words. That made a lot of sense and I felt bad for not connecting the dots earlier. "Wait, Kiri- That's not- Todo and I- Gross no! We didn't- We don't- That's definitely not-"

"If you aren't going to finish your sentences, please shut the hell up." Kacchan snapped.

I shot him a glare. "I stutter and my mind moves to fast for my mouth, leave me alone." I shot back at him. His attitude was something I could definitely deal without at that moment. I already had to worry about my boyfriend thinking I was cheating on him, I didn't need his best friend to get sassy with me.

He scoffed at me. "Trust me, everyone's aware of that. You'd think by third year you'd have figured out how to speak." He said, rolling his eyes and staring straight ahead of himself.

The elevator dinged and the doors opened, indicating we had reached Kiri and Kacchan's floor.

"Please, for the love of god, let me down." I complained again. I didn't want to even be there anymore. I didn't want to deal with or speak to Kacchan.

Kiri hesitantly set me on my own feet.

"Thank you. Now goodbye." I said, motioning for them both to get off the elevator so I could go back to my own dorm.

"What?" Kiri asked me, baffled by my words.

"Bye? Are you gonna get off on your floor or?..." I asked, getting more sassy than needed, but I was done with both of them. They disappear for hours on end, not telling why or where they're going, and then show up and act like I was the bad guy for hanging out with a friend, while I waited for him!

"You're coming with." Kiri stated, like was worried I had suffered from memory loss or something.

"No? I'm going to my own dorm." I said, crossing my arms over my chest.

Something flashed in his eyes. "Oh really? How're you gonna do that without a key?" He asked, holding up my dorm key in one hand.

My eyes widened as I patted my back pocket, where I usually kept it. I scowled when I found that they were both empty. "Give it back." I snapped.

"No." he said with a shrug. He had stepped off the elevator and was holding a hand on the doors so they wouldn't shut.

I rolled my eyes and walked off the elevator. I needed my key back or I couldn't get into my room, ever. "You're a jerk, you know that?" I said to him as I made my way down the hall to his room.

"I'm pretty sure most people see me as a ray of sunshine, but I guess everyone's entitled to their own opinions." He said with a shrug, unlocking his dorm and walking in, leaving me to follow after him.

Once I was in, I shut the door and leaned against it. "What's your problem? Why are you acting like this?" I asked him, confused by all of his latest behavior.

He sighed and ran a hand down his face as he took a seat at the foot of his bed. "I'm- I'm sorry. It's just, seeing you in the commons with Todoroki- it freaked me out. It made me realize just how easy it would be for someone to come a snatch you away from me... and that's terrifying. I've become quite attached to you in the past two weeks." He said.

My face softened at his words. I slowly made my way over to him and kneeled down in front of him, looking up at his face. "Eijirou Kirishima, it is not easy for someone to snatch me away from you. I am so insanely infatuated with you that I wouldn't even think of looking at someone else like I look at you. Todoroki and I are strictly friends. You don't have to be jealous of him." I said sternly, wanting him to understand just how serious about our relationship I was.

He smiled softly. "Promise you won't leave me for the sack of daddy issues?" He asked jokingly.

I laughed slightly at the joke. "I promise, but please be nice, he's still one of my best friends." I scolded.

"Does he have to be though?" He asked me.

I lightly flicked his forehead. "Yes, yes he does. Just like Kacchan is yours." I said, trying to make him understand Todoroki and I's relationship.

"Wait, you're jealous of Bakugo?" He asked me with a raised brow.

I looked away. "That isn't what I said." I said back.

"You totally are! Awe, you're cute when you're jealous. Is that why you got so snappy in the elevator?" He teased.

I groaned at him. "I got snappy because he was being a dick. I'm not jealous of him." I said, crossing my arms.

He chuckled as he place a kiss on my cheek. "Don't worry Zuku, you have nothing to be jealous of. Bakugo is strictly a bro." Kiri said.

I playfully rolled my eyes at his way of phrasing it. I sat up and pushed him back on the bed, snuggling up to his chest. "Yeah, he better be."
