"Oh! We're here!" Kaminari smiled, grabbing the two boys hands and rushing inside the large building. Izuku's eyes gleamed happily, he'd never mustered such a bright smile, he felt like his jaw should have cracked. "A cinema..." Izuku trailed off, watching the different trailers of new movies flash on tv screens as the smell of buttery popcorn filled his senses. The neon lights that flashed in the dark cold room was comforting, and Izuku couldn't be more happy. He'd only been to a cinema once, it was for a birthday, of course he was ignored half the time, but he didn't mind, it was the experience that mattered, not the dodgy people.

"Uh, Mido?" Kaminari placed a hand on the smaller's shoulder, pulling him out of his nostalgic thoughts. "O-oh, Sorry, it's been forever since I've been to a cinema," Izuku smiled at the other two boys happily, practically skipping as the trio went and paid for their tickets. Kaminari tried his gosh darn bestest to pay for all three, but the other two were having none of that. "I swear to god guys, I could have payed!" Kaminari whined as they took their seats in the rather empty cinema. "Looks like there's not many people coming, leaves us a bit of freedom huh," Shinso and Izuku gave each other suspicious glances at Kaminari's statement, it may have sounded innocent, but the two knew him well enough to know that it's true intent was not what you'd first think.

"But there are still people here Kam-Denki, we have to be respectful-" Izuku nearly screeched as Kaminari ran a hand over his thigh. "Denki!" Izuku scolded, whispering harshly about how he shouldn't be doing that in public. "Oh come on, it's not like anyone can even see us, it's way too dark," Kaminari was about to place his hand back on the boys thigh before hastily pulling it away as a short, purple orb haired boy sat down next to the greenette. "Oh thank god..." Izuku whispered out, giving Kaminari a cocky glare as the boy in question pouted before resorting to Shinso. He instantly got slapped away, "no," Shinso growled, still facing the screen as the movie started. Kaminari had picked a superhero movie, making sure there was at least a little bit of romance, the other two had agreed on it so he didn't mind the action at all.

The movie had gone great when suddenly, Izuku tapped on his shoulder harshly, "stop it," the boy whispered as quietly as he could, earning a raised eyebrow from the electric user. "What am I doing?" Kaminari asked, genuinely confused. Izuku just shook his head, muttering incoherent words to himself. Shinso leaned in towards Kaminari, "hey, what was that about?" Kaminari didn't really have an answer instead, resulting to just shrugging before they turned back to the movie.

By the end, Izuku had poked him in the shoulder harshly four times, and all four times the yellow haired boy hadn't gotten a clear answer on what he was doing. As they left the room the movie was streaming in, Kaminari and Shinso turned to an uncomfortable looking Izuku. "What were you fussing over in there?" Shinso asked as Izuku shook his head. "Every once and a while someone kept touching my leg, at first I thought it was you, but you didn't know what I was talking about, so now I'm kinda confused..." Izuku looked around anxiously. Shinso's gaze hardened on the green haired boy in front of him. "What about that short person who sat next to you?" Izuku just shook his head at Kaminari's question, "that person was obviously way younger than us, I don't think it was him..." as Izuku was about to open his mouth again, a voice called out from behind him, directly behind him.

Izuku spun around, instantly looking down at the much shorter purple orbed boy. "Hey girl, you have really nice thighs," the boy spoke with a very much prominent speech impediment. "I-I'm sorry?" Izuku stuttered, his face lighting up in embarrassment, stepping back slightly as the two boys behind him sent the shorter death glares. "Oh, you aren't a chick, darn you had such nice-" it happened too quickly for Izuku to properly register as Shinso shot forward and punched the kid straight in the face as hard as he could. The boy tumbled back, holding his nose as blood started running down his chin. "S-Shinso!" Izuku was shocked to say the least, staring at the taller teen in front of him. Shinso cracked his knuckles, completely willing to punch the kid again if he needed to, "I'm sorry, would you like to repeat what you said?" He asked, his voice cutting like a knife through the short kids sense of confidence. "I-I...SOMEONE HELP!" The kid shouted out, immediately acting like the receiver and victim as employees rushed around the corner to hold back Shinso and help the kid up.

"What's going on here?" A man wearing a black and white suit walked out, he wore a badge saying manager. "This guy was-" Shinso was cut off by the short kid, "he punched me for no reason!" He screeched, staring at the insomniac in horror. "For no reason... for no reason!? You were harassing my partner!" Shinso growled, trying to break out of the hold he was put in, he just wanted to snap the guy in half. "Sir, I know it's annoying and harsh to say, but please calm down, we can check the cameras if you'd like?" Shinso let out a few curse words, saying how he wanted to punch him into a bloody pulp, but held back for the sake of the two teens behind him. "E-excuse me?" Izuku mumbled nervously, awkwardly stepping forward, "I... have reason to believe it had been going on throughout the majority of the movie..." all eyes were on him as he shuffled back a few steps, bowing, "I apologise for the trouble sir!" Izuku rushed out with closed eyes.

There was a friendly laugh from the manager, who slapped Izuku on the back enthusiastically. "No need to stress kid, it may surprise you to know this happens quite often, we're practically professionals in the matter," he lead the small group towards the employees only area, leading them into a dark room filled with monitors. Each monitor was labeled accordingly, with the cinema numbers, the reception desk e.g., "we'll deal with whatever happened accordingly, then you three can get back to your date, alright?" Izuku blushed brightly at the open statement before snapping himself out of his thoughts, focusing on the cameras in front of him.

By the time they had searched through all the footage, Shinso and Kaminari had disgusted looks on their faces, glaring right at the short boy who's nose was still bleeding, probably broken. "Well then, you three can leave while we deal with this kid," Izuku awkwardly nodded, being gently dragged out by his two partners, which seemed to happen quite often. "We're sorry for not noticing Mido," Kaminari slung an arm around the boy with a guilty smile. "It's ok, you couldn't have known anyway, and please, I feel like it's only fair that you call me Izuku, if you'd like to of course, don't feel obligated, you can stick with Midoriya-" Kaminari tightened his arm around the rambling boy's neck. "Alright then Izuku~" Kaminari simped for how Izuku's name rolled off his tongue, it sucked he couldn't stay the night, he wanted to spend more time with his partners. "I guess you can call me Hitoshi..." Shinso muttered, looking down at the concrete footpath nervously. "This is fucking amazing!" Kaminari squealed, wrapping both of his arms around his partners, smiling brightly.
