Chapter 19 - 'Disgust'

Day 72

It had been 15 minutes since Izuku left when there was a knock on my door.

With a sigh I stood up from the futon where I stood still since he left and walked to the door.

"Dude! Are you ok?" - Kirishima said frowning.

"I am fine..." - I mumbled not sure of what he really wanted to know.

"Then why you're still here? We're all in the common room, you're the only one missing the party!" - Kirishima said crossing his arms on his chest!

"I didn't know the was one, I don't like parties anyway" - I said. It was somewhat true, I hated to be around too many people as much as I hated loud music and noises. I would have rather staid in my room in silence and darkness. Besides, I honestly thought it was a bad idea to be anywhere near Izuku after I just angered him.

"But it's Midoriya's birthday party!" - Kaminari appeared next to Kirishima.

"He won't mind" - I sighed taking a step back, if anything I was the last person he wanted to see in that moment. Apparently though, Kaminari had no sense of personal space or consent because he just grabbed my arm making me flinch in pain and dragged me all the way down to the common room while Kirishima followed in silence.

"I got your best-friend Midoriya!" - he yelled raising the arm he was dragging up in the air, as we neared everyone who already sat in a circle on the floor. Izuku gave a little fake smile but immediately went back to look at Uraraka who was clinging onto his left arm. I sighed and chose to sit by Miyako who already shifted a bit to make space for me, might as well keep up this stupid facade. I leaned to leave a peck on her cheek as she smiled playing along and most of our classmates awed as if it was the cutest thing in the world. Idiots...

"You two are so cute!" - Hagakure coed from the other side of the circle. Miyako smiled at her while I just ignored the comment.

"Ok, now that we're all here: lets the game begins!" - Ashido said clapping her hands.

"What are we playing?" - I asked Miyako.

"Truth or dare, that's what I heard anyway. Why you didn't come down with Midoriya? Kirishima said you were together..." - she asked scooting closer to me so that we could talk without anyone overhearing.

"I fucked up..." - I mumbled. Miyako sighed and gave my hand a little squeeze trying to comfort me. I honestly started to think that she was the best girl to be stuck with. We had a good balance; I wouldn't push her limits and she wouldn't push mine; she would stay by my side and comfort me while I would have protected here from everything. She seemed empathic as well and seemed genuinely worried about my messed-up state.

"I'm going first! Kiri: truth or dare?" - Ashido asked excited.

Kirishima laughed awkwardly and opted for telling the truth making everyone stare shocked.

"Bro, that's not manly!" - Sero said laughing.

"Shut up bro! Telling the truth IS manly!" - Kirishima scoffed as Bakugou scoffed next to him.

"So, who confessed first? You or Bakugou?" - Ashido asked excited for god knows what reason. I thought it wasn't really nice of her to meddle into their business, but I was no one to say it was wrong or right.
