I'll Be There (KIRIBAKU)

23

   The weekend's morning was as usual, with the exception of someone new arriving.

   "Huh? Kyouka?"

   When Ashido, Sero, and Kaminari all arrived at the reception, Kirishima was happy to see his friends again, but he was surprised to see Kyouka along with them. 

   "What's up? Yaomomo got busy, and band practise got cancelled, so I wanted to tag along to come see you, since I'm not busy," she grinned. "How have you been? The last time I came here was when- like the end of last summer? Ages ago," she chuckled.

   "It's good to see you," he smiled, hugging her briefly before going over to hug his other friends. "It's probably a good thing you didn't come anytime earlier," he chuckled.

   "Hm? Oh yeah, that drama with Bakugou," she nodded. "Mina mentioned it to me, and although I did feel like going for moral support, Denki and Sero both stopped me from trying to come over," she shrugged. "Everything is settled now, right?" she asked.

   "Yep! Bakugou and I are best bros again," he grinned.

   "As if I was expecting anything else," she chuckled. "Do you guys still do that shopping thing?" she asked.

   "Definitely," nodded Ashido. "Every week, if we can," she said. "Ei hasn't been there for two weeks, but it was for a good cause. We should invite everyone to go again!" she exclaimed.

   "I don't think I'll be able to go," said Uraraka, giving her friend a small sad smile. "Sadly, I've got a summer camp to take care of, and they aren't giving me any peace," she sighed. "Bakugou and Midoriya will be going, and I'll see if Todoroki can go too," she said. "He might not be able to make it, but I don't know," she chuckled.

   "I wish I could, but I want to wash Rei today," he said. "As a bonding moment," he added.

   "Right," pouted Ashido. "We miss you coming over with us."

   "I'm sorry?"

   "Nah, don't worry about it, man," grinned Kaminari. "We've got this! Do you want us to buy something for you?" he asked.

   "Soba noodles, five packets, already on the list," sighed Bakugou as he entered the overcrowded reception. He looked over at Uraraka with a questioning gaze. 

   "Yeah. Already on the list," she confirmed, chuckling as she handed it to him. 

   "Thanks," he said, "or whatever," he added, noticing Kyouka. 

   "I'm Kaminari Kyouka," she smiled, holding her hand out. "I don't think we've met properly yet," she smiled.

   "Guess not," he muttered, shaking it once, before turning his attention back to the grocery list.

   "He's Kacchan," whispered Kaminari, loudly, yelping when Bakugou kicked him in the shin.

   Midoriya sighed a chuckle, and then they headed outside.

   "What are we buying for ourselves?" asked Sero. "Do we even have a grocery list? Man, they are organised people," he whistled, impressed.

   "They've always had a grocery list, now that I think about it," said Kirishima. "They really are, you know? I wish I could be like that..."

   "Yeah, you don't even have a bedtime for yourself," chuckled Kaminari.

   "Don't act as if you do."

   "I do actually. It doesn't have to be written since I'm so used to it, it is just automatic."

   "You go to sleep at three, and wake up at nine if you're lucky," said Sero. "I don't think it is a bedtime. It is a messed up sleeping schedule."
