My Oath to You [Under Reconstruction]

Chapter Ten

For the next week I reflected on the recent events. The exam, Akira, Bakugo, and the principal all replayed in my head. It only solidified my will to work harder. Not only that, but Izuku made it into UA and we'll be in the same class! That would probably be the highlight of my week. I told Izuku what happened and even explained my living situation. He was stunned at first, but was still supportive as ever. Because I'm under UA protection, I can't leave campus like the other international students. When Izuku offered to hang out before school I had to turn it down. Now today was the first day of school and I'm not going to lie. I'm nervous. I still feel a little tension even though I haven't seen Ka-chan since that night. I can still feel his breath on my ear and his arms around my waist. I sat up in bed, feeling my face flush. I shook it off as I crawled out of bed. I walked into my bathroom and saw a mess. My hair was frizzy and sticking out all sorts of ways, the bags under my eyes from restless nights, and I needed to brush my teeth. I brush down the frizz and pull my hair into a ponytail today, pulling out little pieces to frame my face. I looked in the mirror and checked side to side, "Not bad." I splashed some cold water on my face and brushed my teeth. I come out and make my bed. Pulling out the uniform and laying it there, I stared at it. It feels so weird. I've never been to school before so I don't really know how to behave. I normally fight alone. I've been pretty much alone my entire life. I put on the uniform and it was a lot more form fitting than I had expected. Since when did I become curvy? I laughed it off, "Maybe it's just the clothes accentuating my body." I put on some new white tennis shoes and go to the bathroom to give the final twirl. I gave myself a cheeky grin and thumbs up in the mirror, "Today, you become a first year at UA! Let's do our best!"

Pumped, I skipped out of my room and bumped into Rayen. I step back, "Sorry Rayen! I'm just so excited!" She looked a little sleepy but she waved it off. She began to swish off elegantly in the UA uniform. I reached out after her but murmured to myself, "God damn, that kind of beauty should be illegal. For goodness sake, look at them legs and that figure." I thought to myself, "I'm pretty sure this is what a girl crush is." Suddenly, Alfonso dropped from the balcony upstairs in uniform as well, "I know right. It almost hurts to look at her too long." I screeched, "Aaah! You weren't supposed to hear that!" He tapped his monkey like ears, "Normal people probably wouldn't have." I blushed profusely and began to stutter. Alfonso laughed and walked off, leaving me there looking like a blubbering tomato. I start heading towards the door when I hear Ben coming down the stairs, "Good morning, Nozomi." I looked behind me and my jaw hit the floor. Ben was dressed uniform but he looked like he could burst out of the seams at any second. His clothing almost left nothing to the imagination and he styled his hair slightly slicked back with his undercut peeking through. His amethyst eyes still shined like normal. I looked to the heavens and cried out, "Why does everyone in this house have to be so hot!?" Ben blushed, "Nozomi.." I ran out, using my arms to hide the dramatic tears, "It's just not faaair!!" After making the melodramatic exit, I slowed my jog as I pulled up to the entrance. This is it. I'll do my best Akira.

"Nozomi!"

I swung to face wherever the voice came from, "Izuku?" In the distance, amongst the crowd, I could see Midoriya jumping and waving his hands as he dashed around the students. When he finally made it, he was panting. I patted him on the shoulder, "That must have been a work out. Long time no see, Izuku!" His breathing normalized, "Yeah. I'm so glad I caught you. I actually wanted to walk to class together. I almost didn't recognize you with your hair up." I picked up the pieces around my face, "Is it really that different? Does it look bad?" Midoriya blushed and waved his hands, "N-n-no no! I think it looks great!" That made me feel good and I gave him a signature cheeky grin, "I'm glad you think so! Let's go. I would hate to be late on our first day." He calmed down and gave a confident nod.

We pulled up to a giant door labeled "1-A." Izuku gulped, "This door is huge." We both gawked at it together. I shook my head and tried to focus, "Who do you think will be in our class?" Izuku cringed, "I'm really hoping it isn't anyone mean." I nodded as I pulled the door open, "Me too-" I was interrupted with yelling.

"Get your feet off that desk, now."

"Huh?!"

I looked to the far side of the classroom and saw a boy with dark blue hair and glasses arguing with Bakugo. The boy in the glasses shouted pointing to the desk, "It's only the first day of class and you're already disrespecting school property." Bakugo snarled,"You're kidding me right?! Did your old school put a stick up your ass or were you born with it?" The boy in the glasses paused, "Uh-" He now came at a Bakugo with a different approach, "I think we're getting off on the wrong foot here. I'm Tenya Iida from Somei Academy." Bakugo growled, "Somei, huh!? So you think you're better than me? I'll have fun tearing you a new one!" They continued to bicker and I looked at Midoriya giving him a doomed look. He looked back at me with a similar overwhelmed look. While our attention was pulled away Iida called out, "It's you." Completely ignoring my existence, Iida marched over, "Hello! My name is Tenya Iida-" Midoriya waved his hands, "It's okay. I already know who you are!" He paused, "I-I-'m Izuku Midoriya." Iida pushed up his glasses giving off a glint, "Midoriya.. You noticed something at the exam that none of us picked up. You must be very perceptive. I misjudged you at first, but as a student you are far superior to me." Midoriya sweated a little, "I really doubt that."

Behind us I heard a girl's voice, "Hey, I recognize that messy hair!" Midoriya and I turned around and it was the brown haired girl from before. Izuku turned beet red as the girl talked about his performance at the exam. As the two went back and forth I looked back to Bakugo as he stared at our group of commotion. For some reason my heart went out to him. I put on a cheery attitude and skipped over to his desk, "Ka-chan!" Bakugo grumbled, "What hell do you want!?" I groaned as I leaned over his desk, "Kaaaa-chan. There you are being grumpy again!" He barked, "That's because you're always in my business!" Back at the entrance, I heard that recognizable voice. Aizawa griped, "If you think you're here to make friends, you can go ahead and pack your bags to leave." The whole class froze. Aizawa was in a sleeping bag!? He continued, "Welcome to UA's hero class." He started to unzip the sleeping bag and proceeded to move out of it, "It took a whole 8 seconds to quiet down. That's unacceptable. Hero's know time is money and it's best not to waste it." He then pulled class gym suits out of the sleeping bag, "My name is Shota Aizawa. I am your teacher. Put these on and let's get to work."
