Worthless Necessity [HitoZuku]

Chapter 94 - A piece of it with me

"His fight with Gentle did aggravate some of his old wounds, but overall, he's fine. He's just tired, and hasn't fully recovered yet. His arm took a bit of damage, but I healed it up already." Shuzenji said, "Don't worry about him."

Shinsou gently ran his fingers through Midoriya's fluffy hair as the tired greenette sat on the bed, gazing around absentmindedly. Iida had brought his clothes to the infirmary after the fight, and based on the chattering from outside the infirmary, Shinsou could tell that several of his classmates were crowded outside.

Shuzenji turned to address the students crowded outside her infirmary, while giving Midoriya some space to change out of the dress, before dismissing him, allowing them to enjoy the rest of the festival. Apparently, due to Midoriya containing the fight in a small area, and Kaminari alerting the teachers quickly to deal with the situation, the alarms hadn't been triggered, which had been a loophole that allowed UA to continue on with the festival despite the villain attack.

It didn't take too long for Midoriya to change, and they walked out of the infirmary, where the other students were all chatting amongst themselves. Eri was standing next to Togata, and the second Midoriya exited the infirmary, she ran up to him, wrapping her arms around his waist, "Izuku! Are you okay?"

"Yeah, he's fine." Shinsou replied, "So... did we miss anything?"

"Not really." Ashido replied, as Midoriya returned the dress to her, "I think Kirishima and Bakugou went to the obstacle course or something."

"There's a few more hours left to the School Festival. We should go check out the other stalls too." Uraraka grinned, "I heard one of the stalls has really good crisps!"

"Vote for one of these contestants! Results will be announced at five in the evening! It's the closing event!"

"Oh yeah! We should go vote too." Kaminari piped up, "I honestly can't choose between Hado-senpai and Midoriya... Hado's performance was mesmerizing, but Midoriya looked really good, and was really badass too. Mina, who are you voting for?"

"I'm voting for my boy, Midoriya. Duh." Ashido grinned, "He looked awesome and he kicked ass."

Midoriya just covered Eri's ears, as Togata chuckled under his breath at how protective Midoriya was being. It was honestly adorable. Reiko and Ryuto were settled in Midoriya's hood, the latter having grown a bit too big to completely hide himself in the hood.

Kaminari and Ashido spent some time going back and forth, before the pinkette turned to Togata, "Senpai, who will you vote for?"

Togata pouted, "Honestly, I can't really decide between Hado and Midoriya. Both of you guys were equally splendid, right? But it's Hado's third year and she really wanted to win against Kenranzaki... Eri, who will you choose?"

Eri looked up at the mention of her name, smiling brightly, "Izuku!"

Ashido quickly bent down, and took a picture of Eri's smiling face, squealing, "So cute!"

"Anyways, we should go check out the other stalls." Iida spoke up, "All the students put a lot of effort into them!"

Midoriya nodded tiredly, as Kaminari patted Shinsou on the back, gesturing towards his phone. The lavender haired boy frowned in confusion, and fished his phone out of his pocket as he followed his classmates, noticing that he had several messages from the electric blonde.

Shinsou curiously unlocked his phone and opened up the direct messages that Kaminari had sent him, only to find a couple photos of Midoriya wearing his dress on the stage, before he had to fight Tobita. Shinsou immediately turned red, and shut his phone off.
