Tuesday, Sero's POV

Yesterday, Todoroki asked me to help Midoriya stay awake in class. I don't want his grades to drop but watching him is just like cooking something. Always keeping an eye on it, but when I don't, it decides to burn.

Todo said to keep an eye on Midoriya at all times, but he normally keeps himself awake. And when I take my eyes off him to do work I get distracted and forget. Also, Midoriya happens to be both a heavy, and quiet, sleeper. So I don't know if he's asleep until I look in his direction. And I can't do that if I forget to do it!

But Todo probably asked me because Midoriya and I happen to sit next to each other. What happened to Mineta, or Bakugo, or even Jiro?! They would have worked too! Wait, actually Jiro and Mineta can't reach, and Bakugo would have killed both Todo and Mido. I guess there's Tokoyami but he probably would have said no. I guess Todoroki was also taking after Mr.Aizawa and just being rational.

"I'm so glad classes are ove-, and you're asleep," I said. I finally remembered to check on Midoriya.
"Hey, Midoriya. Wake up. You can go to your room and sleep there now. Midoriya! Just wake up!" I whined. I just had an idea.
"Oi! Deku!" I yelled. Impersonating Bakugou is easy, and very effective.
"Kacchan?!" Midoriya jolted awake. I didn't know Bakugo scared Midoriya that much...

"Sorry. It's just me!"
"Oh, t-thank you Sero." He said, quietly packing up his notes. Even when he's as tired as Mr.Aizawa, he still takes a ton of notes.
"Oi! Elbows! The —— you think you're doing!" Bakugo yelled. Now I see why Bakugo scares him.
"S-sorry Bakugo! I was just t-trying to wake up Midoriya!"

"Deku! Don't think you're going anywhere, either!" Bakugo grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.
"H-hi Kacchan!" Midoriya said, obviously scared.
"What's going on! It's as if that human caterpillar's sleep paralysis is contagious! I don't care who tells me, but one of you two are going to spit it out!" Bakugo yelled.
"I don't know! He wouldn't tell anyone, and if he did, they wouldn't spill either!" I argued.
"Deku!" He said.
"Y-yes Kacchan?" Midoriya answered.
"What's going on?!" Bakugo demanded. All I could hear was quiet muttering, but it sounded like he said, "The legend of something something" or something like that.
"Speak up you —— nerd!" Midoriya repeated himself, and I think he branched off of what he said before. This part sounded like he said, "They're shooing this knightly,", but that was only a part. I couldn't make out the rest.

"Elbows! Does anyone else know?!" Bakugo said angrily.
"No," Midoriya replied for me.
"Deku! Shut the —— up! You're obviously going crazy or some ——!" Bakugo said.
"A-actually, I think Iida might know," I said. He and Midoriya are friends, so if anyone would know, it's him.
"You better be telling me the truth, Soy sauce face!" Bakugo yelled.
"Maybe?" I said nervously. He then said 'okay', and dragged Midoriya over to Iida.

"Oi! Glasses!"
"Yes?"
"Tell me what the —— is wrong with Deku!"
"I'm not sure. Whenever Uraraka and I ask, he just starts rambling nonsense."
"ELBOWS!" After that part, I just ran for my life.
