Midoriya and Iida reached the gates of school. He was walking along the path until someone put him in a headlock.
"What'd you do to kill Jirou's vibe, huh, Midoriya!" Mina, the culprit.
"Eh, ow! Ashido?" Izuku was trying to pull himself away.
Froppy and Tooru were behind Mina.
"Midoriya, is there something you want to tell us?" Tsuyu had her fingertip to her lips. "Jirou didn't look like her normal self earlier."
Mina softened her grip and made him face the other two girls. Iida was ordering them to act civil but it was unheard in the background.
Izuku drew a frown. "It's personal. I can't just talk about it."
The three girls glanced around at each other. Mina released her arms. "Whatever happened, fix it, Mr. Lovebook." She pointed her index finger.
"L-Lovebook?!" 'Is she referring to my notebook?!'
Mina crossed her arms. "Man and it was going so good between you guys."
Midoriya ruffled his hair. "Um, why are you guys getting involved anyways." 'Kyouka doesn't want her business put out there.'
"How naive, Midoriya!" Tooru corrected striking a pose. Mina nodded along with her.
"We have to help."
"For we are,"
"Your fans!"
"Ribbit."
Izuku's head dropped sideways. "Ara?" Defeated. 'Are they serious.'
"We totally want to see you guys together! We're rooting for you!"
"Then why'd you attack me?"
That was a confusing morning for Izuku.
Izuku was resting his chin on the palm of his hand. His elbow was at the edge of the desk. It slipped off and he almost banged his head on it.
Kyouka was chewing her inner cheek, holding a tuned out stare at the board behind Sensei.
One peeked at the other, through their lying nonchalant body language. The other tensed from the peripheral vision. Both recovered just as quickly.
Izuku turned his head to the clear sky, shining through the window. 'I don't really like sunny days like this that much anymore.'
Rainy days had a better lyrical quality.
Kyouka was staring at her desk. Her mind kept repeating the morning she shared. She woke up with Momo sleeping right next to her, faces inches apart. 'We didn't do anything..?' At that moment, it felt like they were going to. They shared a warm, misty, stare, waking up, snuggled.
Izuku perked up at the feeling of eyes staring at the back of his neck. He matched the gaze. Uraraka quickly hid her head, pretending to be focused on her book.
He glanced back forward with straight lips. 'I can't leave her hanging, either.'
Lunch. Izuku waked into the cafeteria hall, with his tray of food. He glanced around the tables.
Momo was sitting with Kyouka. Momo glanced up and their eyes met. She gave a sympathetic smile, he returned it with a weak one.
Momo went back to her conversation with Jirou, but with more detailed expressions, because a certain dark green haired teen was watching.
Izuku shifted his eyes. Uraraka and Iida were sitting together. It couldn't be helped. Iida was also her friend.
Kacchan, Kaminari, and Kirishima were munching on some food.
