Mark looked at me surprised and stood up "OK, let's go" he pulled me away from her.
I felt bad for leaving Nejire with Kimi after I shouted at her, now she'd have to deal with her.
Although I appreciated that Mark pulled me away from the situation when he could see it upset me.
"ignore her, she's been like that since we were kids" Mark spoke as we walked away.
I looked up at him "you've known her that long?" I asked.
He nodded "yeah, she stopped speaking to me since she got with Amajiki though" he shrugged.
I felt confused, why was she like this?
"I've never seen her so mean before though, usually she's just a little petty" he admitted.
My frustration started to slowly fade as I spoke to him.
"oh, well she's always been horrible to me" I admitted.
"I've noticed she doesn't like you, I erm think it's because your friend likes you" he sighed sitting against the window ledge at the end of the corridor.
My heart raced "A-Amajiki? He hasn't spoken to me for almost three days" I stopped walking leaning against the window.
"so? I can feel him constantly looking at us" Mark began to look slightly annoyed.
"Maybe he's just making sure I'm comfortable, he knows how I feel anxious sometimes" I blushed.
"hmm, maybe, but I think he likes you" he looked out the window.
"he's with Kimi" I scoffed at the idea.
"I think you're a little clueless" he looked back at me.
"hey" I felt a bit offended.
"can we stop talking about him" he scratched the back of his head awkwardly, I nodded feeling a little embarrassed but I felt even more confused now!?

Once I got back to the dorms with Mark I saw Amajiki with Mirio looking super stressed, I badly wanted to go check on him but i felt like lately he wouldn't want me to.
"Do you want to come to my room?" Mark asked.
Oh, that was unexpected, I felt a little unsure, I didn't really want to.
I looked past him to see Amajiki was in fact looking at us.
"m-maybe tomorrow, I feel really tired, is that OK?" I asked nervously not wanting to disappoint him.
"oh, yeah, sure" he smiled but he looked a little upset, I felt kinda bad.
He walked upstairs as I stood there confused with my own feelings, I couldn't use him to try and get over Amajiki, I didn't want to hurt him, I'd have to build up the courage to tell him I didn't want another date soon.

I also felt kinda awkward with my two friends looking over at me now, I  couldn't speak, there were so many thoughts running through my mind.
"Clara, come here a sec?" Mirio called me over waving.
I bit my lip and sat next to him nervous of what he was going to ask me.
"are you OK?" he asked, oh that wasn't what I thought he was going to ask.
"s-sure" I blushed trying my best not to look at Amajiki.
"just making sure, Marks a nice guy but we wouldn't want him forcing you into anything" Mirio smiled.
I looked at Amajiki when he said we.
"o-oh, I don't think he would" I felt grateful mirio was there for me, and maybe even amajiki with what mirio insinuated.
But when I looked over at Amajiki he still hadn't spoken to me, I felt so awkward, had I done something wrong?
I stood up feeling pain grow in my heart "I-I'm going upstairs" I looked down, I didn't want to interrupt their conversation, and with Amajiki not speaking at all I didn't exactly feel welcome.

I rushed upstairs to my room and let out a loud sigh as I laid face first on my bed, my head buried in my pillows.
I felt tears start to drift down my cheeks, wow I really was pathetic that him not speaking to me made me this upset.
It was probably a good thing, hopefully without speaking I would be able to forget him.
I just felt annoyed too, just as I was beginning to feel a little confident with him.
I went to sleep and didn't have dinner, I really didn't feel like eating, plus maybe it will help me lose weight off my thighs a bit.

The next day felt like a blur, I didn't really speak to anyone other than Nejire, which was mostly appolagising for leaving her with Kimi yesterday.
Mark didn't offer for me to go to his room so I didn't.
However the next day we all met up in the gym for a surprise from Mr Aizawa.
I looked up at the pro hero in front of us standing next to him and gasped.
Rabbit hero Mirko was stood in front of me!! Id admired her for a while now, she was everything I wished I could be and more but she was so different to me.
I felt her powerful gaze on me as her and Mr Aizawa spoke.
"you have your physical exam soon so I invited Mirko to see if she can suggest anything to help with your quirks, it's always good to see how another pro thinks. I invited her also because you guys all passed your written exam" the corner of his mouth upturned ever so slightly, was that a smile!?
I felt ecstatic, not only did I pass but my friends and the whole class did too! We're now one step closer to becoming real heroes!

I was so excited Mirko was here, it was basically a treat for us.
"I'm coming around to everyone to help out individually so get going working on your quirks!" she shouted happily as we scattered around the gym to practice our quirks.
There were training platforms and gear to use so we wouldn't ruin anything, even if we did they told us not to worry as they could repair things easily, especially since Mr cementos could fix the building easily.
I felt super nervous for Mirko to speak to me, not only was I weak but my confidence was really low right now.
I wanted to do my best! She was who I looked up to.

I began practicing but still keeping my eyes on her helping other classmates.
My anxiety built up the more and more I waited for her.
I noticed she was now with Amajiki, he must have had clams and seafood today for breakfast.
He looked like he was doing really well, Mirko sure seemed happy with him and eventually hopped away.
I kept my eyes on Amajiki, he seemed stronger after her help.
"is there a reason you're not practicing?" I felt a hand on my shoulder, I knew this voice!...
