Fire in Her Eyes (Bakugo x OC)

Chapter 38

For the next week, I practiced on those Ultimate Moves. I managed to make more than one of those fire cages. I had to pick names for them so for the fire cages I picked 'Fire Cage' for the fire cages which is like the only way I can describe them. Then Ashido suggested that for my fire wave I should do 'Pure Inferno' which instantly made my say 'Disco Inferno'. Then I thought my whole hero shtick could be centered around Discos. 

Throughout the whole training, I could feel Katsuki strengthening his Quirk by literally going crazy on Ectoplasm's poor clones. After almost every day of training, his arms would be sore and so would mine. Sometimes, I hate having a soulmate. 

Also a couple days ago, I got my new and improved gloves that went up to my elbow. They had a cooling system installed and were infused with aloe vera. These were a big improvement and they were amazing and helped me so much. Like I just want to personally thank my design company for all that they have done for me. 

That night, I was hanging with the 1-A girls in the living room. I just looked at my phone most of the time. 

"We're working so hard every day!" Ashido whined. 

"It's not called 'intensive training' for nothing, huh?" Hagakure said. 

"Even so, there is less than a week until the provisional licensing exam," Momo commented. 

"Yao-momo how is your ultimate move going?" Hagakure asked. I could tell that she was excited by the tone of her voice. 

"There is something I want to do, but I can't keep up yet," She mumbles. "So I need to develop my Quirk first." 

"How about you, Akira?" She turns to me. 

I look up from my phone. "I've mastered my Fire Cage and I managed to do the Pure Inferno a couple of times but it requires a lot of power and so I need to work on it more, not to mention I have Katsuki screaming at me for hurting myself." 

"What about you, Ochaco?" 

Ochaco doesn't answer, instead, she continues to stare off into space. Tsu moves her hand and lightly taps Ochaco on the shoulder. Ochaco jumps up in surprise and yelps. 

"Huh!?" She says. 

"You seem tired," Tsu says. 

"Oh no, I'm not tired at all." She says she seemed fully awake. "I'm just getting started!" 

We all gave her a confused stare. 

"At least, that's how it's supposed to be, but, how do I put it...?" She looks down at her hands. I small blush starts to rise up on her cheeks. "Recently, my heart's been feeling all stirred up..."

"It's love!" Ashido shouts. 

"Wh-what? Glove? Shove? Dove?" She starts spiraling out and blushing like crazy. "I don't know what you're talking about!" 

"Is it Midoriya or Iida?" Ashido half teases and half asks. "You're always with them, aren't you?" 

"No, no, that's not it!" She covers her face and her hands light up with a pink hue. She floats up to the ceiling in embarrassment and starts making circles. 

"Who is it? Which one? Who is it?" Hagakure teases. 

"Spit it out." Jirou joins in. "You'll get a lighter sentence if you confess." 

"That is not it, really!" Ochaco shouts. "I don't really know anything about that stuff..." 

"You could always ask Akira," Jirou suggests as she looks at me. 

A small smile appears on my face and I could feel my face heat up. I look down towards the ground. 

"Shut up," I mumbled.
