BNHA x Reader one shots book 2

Tenya Iida X Shy Female Reader

You were three seconds from slamming your head against the desk. Repeatedly. The only force of nature that prevented you from doing just that was that you didn't want Iida to start yelling at you in his weird concerned robotic way. That would be very embarrassing, and you weren't sure if your heart can take that right now. Not when you were focused on Aizawa. Hell no.

"Use the rest of the time as a study period. When the bell rings you are dismissed. Do not wake me up." With that said he crawled back into his yellow sleeping bag covering everything except his mouth. He reminded you of a caterpillar but, you kept those thoughts to yourself for now until you got around to telling Eri about your new discovery.

"Hey, L/N-chan can you help me with English pleeeeeaaassseeeee." You turned to look at Kaminari who was begging you with big glossy eyes and honestly it was your weakness. Who were you to deny him right?

"O-of course, Kaminari-kun." He beamed at you moving his desk over to yours and placing the papers across yours.

"It's not good to always beg. L/N-chan has her own work to do and she cannot cater to your every whim." You both turned surprised to look at Iida. He was naturally loud without trying but, this even surprised you.

"It's okay Iida-k-kun. I don't mind helping h-him out and besides English is e-easy for me." You hoped that was enough to placate him. He stared at the two of you for a few more seconds before he turned completely and began to discuss with Deku and Ochako. You shrugged your shoulders turning back to Kaminari and spending the last twenty minutes of class helping him with his English. The bell rang and after hugging you turning you red in the face he went to his group of friends. You packed up your stuff waiting for your friends aka the Deku-squad. Once they were ready you walked in front with Ochako and Deku listening to them with Iida, Todoroki, and Tsu in the back. You weren't really listening to what they were saying cause if you did you would have fainted.

"When are you going to tell her?" Iida almost choked on his water when Todoroki asked him that

"Why would I tell her?" This was absurd! There was no way he was going to express his feelings for you. No way, no way. You were already jittery around him and he doubted very seriously that you liked him that way.

"Because you have a crush on her, and I am pretty sure that she likes you back." Now he loved Tsuyu he really did but, right now? She was talking out of her ass. Not that he was going to explicitly say it like that now.

"How can you be sure that she likes me back? For all you know she likes Kaminari." That earned a facepalm from her and a snort from Todoroki. He felt offended that they found what he thought amusing "What's so funny?"

"Kaminari is gay for Sero." He halted in his tracks for a second before resuming his walk. Since when was he gay? Are they telling him the truth? He squinted at Todoroki just to make sure he wasn't joking or playing around with this and when he didn't get that vibe, he let out a breath he didn't even know he was holding.

"I was not even aware that he was gay. At least I know that I don't have to worry about him, right?" He wasn't one to get all frazzled over feelings and girls but, you were the first girl he ever had a crush on. It was weird for him to even look at a girl like that, hell he never thought he would find one considering how weird he was.

"No, you don't all you have to work on is actually talking to the girl and possibly asking her out." That's when rational left his brain and it took all his willpower not to shriek in the middle of the hallway. Why was it taking so long to get to the lunchroom anyway?

"Talking I can do, but actually asking her out? You must want me to make a fool of myself." He was not confident in that department and they wanted him to ask you out. The robot of the class? Mr. stick up his ass? Right.

"You don't give yourself enough credit Tenya-kun. You're smart and you're really kind." He just looked at her cause clearly Tsu saw something in him that he didn't.

"She's telling the truth. All you can do is try. I doubt nothing bad is going to happen but, in case it does you got us to cheer you up." He frowned at what Shoto said but then again at the same time it was the truth. There were only two directions this was going to go in and only one way to find out.

"Fine but if shit hits the fan, I want three gallons of orange juice." That earned a chuckle which was more than enough to calm his rattled nerves. With determination and purpose, he marched on ahead straight to the lunch line. You were standing directly in front of him close enough that he can smell your vanilla honey perfume and your fruity shampoo. Honestly, you smelled like a fruit cocktail and he beat down the urge to run his hand through your hair.

"Iida-kun, do you mind sitting next to L/N-chan today? I have to work on something with Deku." You and he both froze looking at each other before looking back at Ochako who had a glint in her eye but, waited patiently for him to answer.

"As long as L/N-chan doesn't mind." He looked down at you while you were stuck between fainting, melting, or beating Ochako to a pulp. You decided to do none of the above and with a red face turned to Iida

"I don't m-mind." Curse your stutter, curse your crush, and curse Ochako. Maybe you should study witchcraft to cast a spell on her or make a voodoo doll. Both sounded appealing to you. After you got your lunch all split up and you were now sitting at a table alone with Iida. He sat across from you stiffly and the air was now awkward. At least to you, it was maybe he felt fine

"I'm sorry if this sudden arrangement made you uncomfortable." You looked up at him confused as to why he would think that. Maybe it was just you making everything awkward?

"N-no! It's fine really. I like t-talking with you. You're really sweet and smart and so s-strong." You were rambling at this point but, you couldn't stop so you kept it going no matter how embarrassed you were feeling now. You stopped and saw his face matched yours as he coughed into his fist.

"W-well it's a good thing the feeling is mutual." He was looking off to the side and just as you were about to respond he beat you to it "I like you a lot L/N-Chan. Todoroki convinced me to tell you my feelings. If you like me the same way you can g-grab my hand or if you don't I can just l-leave." Usually, he was classy but, he was stuttering and looked like he was ready to bolt now. Before he got any ideas you grabbed his hand and he looked at you in surprise. You gave him a tentative smile squeezing his hand before looking back down at your lunch. He was stiff at first but let out a huff squeezing your hand in return. That's how the two of you spent the rest of the lunch period. Talking softly here and there while still holding each other's hands.

Iida is awkward and you cannot tell me otherwise
