Kowareta woke up (again for the 3 times now) heart beating fast. The green glowing numbers on the clock said 2:55 am. She sighed and pulled the blanket over her head. Then swiftly threw it off her and went outside. The sky clear, the stars shone brighter than she had ever seen them.
"You know Kowareta..." she heard someone say, "the stars shine brighter in the dark." That quote sounded familiar, she looked around- yet she saw no one. She sighed as she realised that if she wanted to stop this from happening to her she was going to have to go to her so-called "father".

-----------------------

The bell rang signalling that the class was over. Kowareta made her way to the cafeteria and saw Akira talking to Kirishima. Akira was leaning against the wall and Kiri was in front of her. She smirked and gave Kiri a shove. He was about to fall on Akira but pressed his palms against the wall to stop himself from falling. He blushed and pulled away.
"I'm stealing your babe" Kowareta yelled and gestured Akira over. Akira smiled, planted a soft small kiss on Kirishima's cheek and left.

"What's up?" Akira asked. Kowareta was staring off into space when Akira hit her gently on the back of her head.
Kowareta shook awake and answered, "I've been getting dreams, strange ones, of my mother. I wake up at exactly the same time, 2:55 am and sometimes I hear my mother calling me..."
Akira's eyes widened as she knew what Kowareta was going to say next.
"2:55. I remember, my mother gave birth to me at exactly 2:55 am." Kowareta stood up. "I... I think I need to go visit my father."
Akira sighed. Once Kowareta set her mind to something there was no changing it. So she just nodded, seeing the serious look on her face she smiled, "soo... who were you daydreaming about? Bakugo?"

Kowareta blushed, "N-No why would I daydream about him?" Akira giggled.
"Hey everyone!" Mina shouted. "Prom is in 3 weeks! I'm so excited!"
"Who's your date Ashido?" Uraraka asked taking a bite of her sushi.
Mina gave a weird look "I haven't been asked yet..."
"Have someone in mind?" Akira asked.
"Well, there is one person..." she turned around to look at Kaminari, Kirishima and Sero.
She turned away to face the girls.
He turned back to look at Mina chatting with everyone and smiled.

"Today..." he thought.

-----------------

The girls had originally planned to go to a mall nearby after school so they could choose their dresses. All the girls took their bags and went out the door. They had just reached the exit when Sero stopped them. He asked if he could talk to Mina alone. The girls stepped away, "We'll wait down there" Momo said pointing to a nearby fountain. They could see Sero talking to Mina. He looked really embarrassed then noticed Kirishima and Kaminari spying on them. They were giving him a thumbs-up signal.

"Ok....." Kowareta raised an eyebrow.
Mina came back blushing furiously.
"What happened?" Tsuyu asked.
"I" Mina opened her mouth and smiled, "I have a date!" All the girls started squealing and giggling and teasing Mina about how cute Sero and Mina looked together.

--------------------------

"So," Mina said with her mouth full. They had been shopping for quite a while now and some of the girls had already chosen their dresses.
"Eat with your mouth closed," Kowareta said.
Mina quickly swallowed her food and continued, "So, Suru is going with Kirishima, Yaoyorozu is going with Todoroki, Hagakure is going with Ojiro and I'm going with Sero...
"What about you Asui?"
Tsuyu looked up swiftly and started blinking really fast.
"Come on... who asked you?" Akira asked.
"Well, Tokoyami did ask me..." Tsuyu said, staring into space.
"DID YOU SAY YES?" Akira squealed
"Umm no not really but I didn't really say no either" Tsuyu shrugged.

Mina and Akira groaned and plummeted onto the table. 
"Hey, Jirou? You're going with Kaminari right?" Akira asked.
Jirou nodded and blushed. 
Akira raised an eyebrow and stayed still, looking at Jirou blushing, then she yelled out loud (a little too loud that is) "OH, FOR ALL MIGHT'S SAKE! You guys have had SEX at least THREE times now- could you PLEASE stop blushing whenever Kaminari is mentioned?!" 
The girls gasped and Jirou turned red, 
"SURU WHAT THE FUCK!" Kowareta leaned forward and put her hand on Akira's mouth to make her shut up. By now everyone was staring at them. 

To change the subject (more or less) Mina asked "Hey Yaoyorozu, how did you become Todoroki's date in the first place?"
