Beach Day - Part 1

Author's Note: I'm totally using a cliche but I love cliches. 

Y/N's POV

"Y/N we're gonna be late if you don't hurry it up in there!" Jiro yelled from outside your dorm room.

"I know! I'm almost ready!" 

     You bit your lip as nerves began to take over. No way were you going to leave your room wearing the bathing suit that Momo had recommended. It was just way too tight and way too revealing for your comfort level. 

"Y/N!" 

"I-I'll be out in just a minute!" 

A sigh was heard from outside the door, presumably belonging to Momo, "If this is about what you're wearing I'm sure you'll look great! Once you're in the water it'll be fine! You won't even notice!" 

     You turned around and looked at yourself in the mirror. It wasn't that you hated how you looked, that was a hurdle you'd cleared a long time ago. You were just protective of the image of yourself that you put out there. You wanted that security, and this bathing suit was ever so slightly a violation of said security. Plus, if there was another person like Mineta at the beach... you shuddered not wanting to finish the thought. 

"Y/N! You have five seconds!" 

You nearly jumped out of your own skin, "Fine! I'm coming I'm coming!" 

     Hastily rummaging through a drawer you grabbed one of your baggiest sweatshirts and shoved it over your head. You then slung your bag over your shoulder, grabbing a pair of shades as a last minute decision, and opened the door to meet your friends. 

Uraraka gave you a huge grin, "Finally! We were almost beginning to think you weren't going to come." 

You offered a crooked smile, "Yeah... but I'm ready now." 

"Are you sure?" Mina asked, "You know it's going to be really hot at the beach right?" 

     You nodded as you tugged down at the collar of your sweatshirt. Sweat was already running down your back and you knew that at some point you'd have to take it off, but for now you chose to ignore that thought. It's just going to be a fun relaxing day at the beach Y/N. You're just overthinking...

Suddenly Kirishima poked his head around the corner, "Mr. Aizawa sent me to grab you guys. The bus is here and ready to be loaded!" 

Hagakure giggled, "Hope you weren't waiting for too long. Y/N here was trying to find something to wear." 

     You bit your lip as Kirishima turned his eyes on you. Thankfully he didn't seem judgmental. 

"Nah you're good," he replied, "But uh... you sure you want to wear that sweatshirt? It's like really hot Y/N." 

You nodded, "I'm sure." 

     A few seconds later, you all found your way downstairs to find the bus parked and waiting. The guys had already claimed their seats, leaving very few options for you and your friends, so naturally you began looking for someone to sit with. You tried to make eye contact with another female member of your class, hoping to catch their glance followed by a "You wanna sit together?" but to no avail. Please please please please... your mind begged as you watched them all pair up together, leaving you behind. I guess this is karma for taking the longest to get ready...

Suddenly, someone tapped you on the shoulder and you turned around to find Iida, "You know Y/N, if you're having trouble finding someone to sit with there's an open seat next to Todoroki."

You bit your lip as you spotted the half and half boy sleeping in the back of the bus, "Oh... okay thanks." 

     I have to sit next to Todoroki? you thought as you hesitantly made your way over to where he was sitting. It wasn't like you disliked the boy or anything. In fact, he was actually very cute. It was just that he was often very reserved and you'd never really talked to him. I guess it's a good thing that he's asleep for now, you mused sliding an earbud into your ear. 

      Hitting shuffle on your playlist, you leaned back letting the familiar beats and tunes of (favorite song) echo through your head. Your little adrenaline rush from earlier had begun to slow down a bit, and slowly but surely the beach was sounding more and more fun. All you had to do was wait for the bus to get there.

"You like (favorite song) too?" 

     You jolted upright as a monotone voice spoke. Looks like someone woke up, your mind rattled off as your gaze met his. 

"You... you know this artist?" 

He nodded, "My sister was obsessed with their music and... it kind of grew on me." 

     You stared at him in disbelief. Is this bonding? Am I bonding? Is this how you socialize? 

"Do you want to listen together?" you asked suddenly holding out the other earbud. 

He stared at your hand before carefully taking it, "Thank you." 

"No problem." 

Authors Note: Ahaha I have no idea where to take this one shot but we'll see! I've been working on this during my downtime in between online classes and I thiiiink it turned out good? It's mostly setting up for what I have "planned" (i have nothing planned im winging this one). Normally, I think about where I want to take the story... sort of. Writing is a complicated process sometimes and writer's block isn't fun. 

Anyways, I hope everyone is doing alright considering the current condition the world is in. Things can be tough but I know we'll all get through together. 

Stay safe everyone <3 I really mean it.
