Song: I'm Not Famous - AJR
-------------------------------------------------------
The students stare at Aizawa in the wake of what he just told us all. It's not like I expected any less from Sensei, but it still hurts to hear that all your hard work to get to this stage could mean nothing.
Expulsion! That's Aizawa for you - a harsh reality check that the world isn't always fair. If I can't step up to meet this challenge, I might as well go home now.
Aizawa lectures the students who start to complain about the seemingly unfair consequence for placing last, while I start to stretch out my muscles in preparation for the series of tests.
"Getting ready to go all out?" Shoto asks whilst performing his own warm up routine.
"You bet! After that introduction from earlier I can't lose now." I reply with determination. "Don't hold back on- "
"Oi, Shrimp!" A deep voice cuts through the air behind me, gaining my attention instantly and making my stomach lurch.
Ah crap...
I turn to see Bakugo's fuming form striding confidently towards me. I stand up straight, preparing for another argument when suddenly my view of Bakugo is blocked by Shoto's back.
"Wha-" I start, surprised by Shoto's abrupt action.
"Outta my way extra!" Bakugo roars in Shoto's face, annoyed by his sudden appearance.
"Y/N doesn't want to talk to you." Shoto replies coldly. I can see his back straighten in an attempt to make himself bigger.
"HAH? Who the fuck are you?" Bakugo challenges stepping closer to Shoto, getting right in his face and egging on a fight.
"Why do you care?" Shoto's cold tone would give anyone chills. While we were growing up together, I would notice that sometimes he would gain this weird intensity. It only happens when his emotions get the best of him.
I look up at his back quizzically, trying to figure out what would have set him off.
The two boys square up to each other, a dangerous energy surging between them as they prepare for a showdown. Shoto is only slightly taller than Bakugo but the latter's fury settles the difference. Still trying to figure out what the hell is going on I notice that the rest of the class is starting to look over at what is happening.
I need to stop this before Aizawa Sensei notices.
I reach out for Shoto's hand and pull him away from Bakugo. I turn him towards me and am shocked to see Shoto's expression full of rage. This amount of emotion is something I rarely see in him since he is usually so level headed.
Jeeze this is more than just being over protective...What's gotten into him all of a sudden?
Shoto's hand tightens around mine and he pulls me further away from Bakugo into the crowd of the class. I follow along worried about my best friend.
"Figure it out on your own then!" Bakugo yells after me before stomping off to the first test location.
The hell does that mean?
Some of the girls notice what just happened and shoot me worried glances. I give them a sheepish smile in return. I can see Mina whispering excitedly into Uraraka's ear, while pointing at mine and Shoto's interlocked hands.
Ah crap - they definitely have the wrong idea.
"I'm guessing that's that Bakugo guy you were telling me about, right?" Shoto asks through gritted teeth, pulling me from my thoughts. "I thought you had agreed to stay away from him. Why does he think he can talk to you so easily?"
