Y/N L/N, a girl with water quirk and an aspiration of becoming a hero, joins the U.A. Academy along with her previous school classmates - Izuku Midoriya and Katsuki Bakugo. Although they weren't exactly 'good friends', they knew each other through t...
Y/N's body was aching all over as she fell on the ground trying to catch her breath.
The U.A. Sports Festival was arriving and she was practicing twice as hard than before. But the problem is, there was All Might to mentor her moves before. This time it was just her and her own efforts, alone. She didn't know what damage she can cause or what kind of precautions she needed to take. Because she bit worried about it, she decided spent time on looking for books in the library about it and visited nurse's office more than expected - not just to mend her injuries but also for advice of what she needed to avoid.
She needed to learn to control on the amount of water she released and if she was going to change temperature along with it, she needed to balance both of it while handling her opponent at the same time. And she needed to do control different temperatures and different amount of water force on different parts of her body.
Ofcourse, she couldn't get so far. Sometimes she focused so hard so releasing boiling hot water from her feet that she forgot about the water she was releasing from her hand which was supposed to be colder and along with a high force. She just couldn't focus on different parts of her body at the same time. Maybe only for a few minutes, but whenever something diverted her attention, she messed it all up.
"Already tired?" Midoriya asked running past her.
"You wish!" She said before getting up and running along with him.

*Morning of the U.A. Sports Festival*
There were separate waiting rooms arranged for separate courses and classes.
It was time to get serious and Y/N didn't want any kind of distractions. Atleast she hoped so until she got ready and heard his voice right behind him before they entered the room. She halted out of reflex and heard him say, "Move, you adopted freak." His eyes were fixed on her back.
"U-Uh yeah." She hurriedly opened the door and ran to grab a seat on the table where Kyoka and Momo were sitting. Yes, she did notice the change from 'grandma' to 'freak'. And ofcourse, it did hurt a bit.
"...Hey!" Y/N finally noticed Kyoka staring at her, "I've been calling you for a while now."
"..sorry, I was just...thinking about something."
"If you're nervous about the festival then I'll say it's okay to be nervous. But if its-" Kyoka looked behind towards Bakugou who was sitting on their opposite table. She pulled her chair near Y/N and started talking in a low tone, "him, then you can talk to me about it. It's partly my fault for getting this into your head. I'm so sorry."
"No no, it's not..your fault. We've been so busy with our training that I absolutely forgot talking to you about it. It's just that-" Y/N sighed covering her face with her hands, "after the villain attack, I was a bit zoned out for a while and he came over to say somethings. But, I understood about my crush when he - god, i feel so embarrassed - when he brushed his finger against my cheek and said grandma with...a smile? I just blushed so hard and my heart was beating so fast that I just instantly knew it"
Kyoka frowned and said, "Dude you should be embarrassed. I don't know how you can find someone attractive who called you 'grandma'."
"Hey you know why he calls me that!"
"Yeah, but maybe just..okay maybe it's just admiration, like you said. The way you admire All Might?"
"It's not."
"It is."
"It's not, trust me. I-" Y/N blushed, "I think about that moment and...I think how it might've turned out if I held his hand.. or if I..if I kissed -"
"Please shut up, I don't wanna hear your tongue story before the festival."
"- his cheek bastard. Honestly Kyoka, how much of a perv do you think I am."
"It's not being a perv to think..about doing things you wanna do to your crush. Kinda creepy, but fine. We are all teenagers and we all can be hor-"
"I dare you. I dare you to complete that sentence."
"-ny sometimes."
Y/N smacked Kyoka's head and turned back to Bakugou's group. She yelled, "Kaminari!"
"Uh yeah Y/N?" He raised his head.
Kyoka was already giving her death stares, so she just smirked and said, "Nothing, just best of luck dude!"
"I already told you that I don't like him." Kyoka said.
"I know, but it's fun to tease you about it. You start blushing, no lie there Kyoka, you know that."
"That's not we were talking about. We were talking to get a solution of your problem."
"You did! I was nervous and you managed to calm me down!"
"You know that's not the only thing you're nervous about Y/N." Kyoka furrowed her brows, "I get it, you like him. But that doesn't mean you avoid him all together. For god's sake, you have been avoiding him ever since the villain attack and you can't even look at him in the eye. Start acting mature."
"I know it's stupid." Y/N gritted her teeth, "I just blush now whenever he looks at me. It's so annoying. I can't keep talking to him. I know I'll like him more and if he continues to act like he does now, I know it's gonna affect me. I'm just scared and need some time."
"Well, make it fast. Because I don't know if you've noticed this but Bakugou has been looking weirdly at you ever since he made all the classes hate us. And I guarantee you, it's not the good kind of weird."
Y/N looked at Kyoka in confusion as the door suddenly burst opened and Iida announced, "Everyone! Get your game faces on! We are entering the arena soon!"
Everyone got ready and started walking to the arena, Y/N felt a presence beside her when she was walking behind everyone. It was the very person she was trying to avoid.
"I know that you've been talking with that purple-headed bastard from another class."
Yes, she was in fact talking with that guy but he never opened up. He wouldn't even let her talk to him for 5 minutes. It was just her trying to convince him that Class 1-A weren't narcissists, but being very subtle about it. Well, atleast she thought that she was being subtle. Y/N looked at Bakugou and well, Kyoka was right once again.
He did look weirdly at her. Almost as if she committed a crime.
"I'm just gonna tell you that whatever you've been planning on, won't work on me." Jaws clenched, he continued, "And trust me Y/N, if you get in my way, I will crush you like a little bug."
