I immediately feel uncomfortable. Should I even mention the whole expiration date thing?

"No." I say as confidently as possible. The lady shakes her head, revealing I had lied. Dammit... The man raises an eyebrow at me. "Why could you possibly be lying about, Bakugou?" he asks. I avert my eyes and look at the surface of the desk. "... Nothin." I say quietly. He sighs. "Does it have to do with the attack last night?" he asks.

I have to answer him eventually, or he'll never let me leave. I sigh. "It doesn't directly correspond with the attack, but it's the reason why I'm still alive." I say. He gives me a confused look. "Kirishima, my... friend, has somehow been giving me a day from his expiration date. So, my expiration date started as 09-26, and his started as 10-16. But now they say 09-30, and his should say 10-13, or something like that." I say, holding out my wrist for him to see. He looks into a folder, with what I'm assuming is a folder on my information. "We really have no idea how or why this is happening." He turns back to the lie detector lady, She nods her head. "Well, this is certainly... strange. And you've spoken to Recovery Girl about this?" he asks. "Yeah, but she doesn't know what's going on either." I responded. He nods. "Well, then you're free to go. Don't leave the building." I stand up and leave.

Once I get back to the common area, Deku is called in. Guess they'll ask Kirishima about it later. I sit back down next to Kirishima and rest my head against his shoulder. He seems surprised at first, but doesn't say anything and continues talking to everyone else in the room.

The investigators finally finish questioning everyone, and we are all allowed to go back to our dorms. Right before we all leave, since we were tired of sitting in the common area, Raccoon Eyes makes an announcement over text. I looked down at my phone to the group chat I was forced to join. 'Party at my house tomorrow at 8! Let's try and get our minds off this sad stuff and just let loose!!' I scoff. Yeah right. Like I'll actually go.

I walk up to my room. Kirishima comes upstairs with me. While we walk there, he talks about the party. "I've never actually been to a house party before. Do you know what they're like?" he asks me. I take a deep breath. "They're nothing special. All that happens is people drink, some people hook up, and it's usually a mess. I don't suggest going." I say. Kirishima frowns. "But I wanna go! I wanna experience just one, even if it sucks! Pleaseeeeee??" he begs. "Why are you asking me? I'm not going!" I growl. "What?! But I wanna go with you!!" he responds. "Suki, PLEASEEEEEEE go?" he begs again. I groan again. "Why should I? So I can get black out drunk??" I ask. Kirishima shrugs. "Do whatever you want! Just please come with me!!" He grabs onto my good shoulder. My wounded shoulder doesn't really hurt anymore, I just can't go and throw it around. Recovery Girl took care of the whole wound part with her creepy ass quirk. I sigh. "Fine." Kirishima leaps into the air, pumping his fist in victory. "Yes!!"

The next morning, I wake up with Kirishima missing from my arms. Last night, we went to our separate rooms. It is still kinda awkward between us now, since we kind of had a "fight" if you can even call it that. We have class today, so I get myself and my bag ready for the day. It probably won't be that eventful of a day until eight. That's when the stupid party Raccoon Eyes is hosting. I can't believe Kirishima convinced me to go.

After getting ready, I head downstairs to get breakfast. I normally don't eat a ton, so I just grab a granola bar and start making my way to class. The walk from the dorm building and the school itself is a bit of a walk, but it's no more than a mile.

I hear quick footsteps running behind me. I turn around to see Kirishima waving as he sprinted towards me. "Yo, Suki!!" he calls out. I stop, waiting for him to catch up. "You left without me, man..." he says as he starts to get closer. "Whoops." I fake apologize, earning a sigh from Kirishima. "Anyways, are you excited for the party?" he asks. "You dragged me into it, why would I be excited?" I question. "Because it'll be fun!" he responds. I shake my head. He's gonna be in for one hell of a treat.
