Kaminaris pov

I wake up and get ready as usual. I can't wait to see shinso again!

Just the thought of going over to his dorm and making him smile makes me blush and want to giggle like a girl.

I walk over to his dorm room, and knock on the door.

There's no answer.

"Shinso!?" I yell, knocking again.

I try the door and find out that it's locked. I knock on the door and wait again.

"Shin!? Are you in there?! Come open the door!!"

Then I try the door once more for good measure.

Well that really dampened my mood.

I decide that if he's not coming out, I'll just wait for him downstairs.

I turn around and come face to face with Bakugo, making my squeal and start sprinting away, towards the stairs.

"KEEP IT DOWN NEXT TIME YOU FUCKING EXTRA."

"Ok geez!" I wimper from across the hallway.

He walks back into his room (where I can see kirishimas head poking out, he mouths 'sorry') and I sprint down the stairs (denki 100% would never have the patience to wait for the elevator).

When I get to the main lobby, my heart sinks. Shin's there. He's talking to todoroki. Just the fact that he went downstairs without me hurts a little. But I don't show it.

"Hey Shin! How're you doing?" I ask.

He looks up at me and opens his mouth to say something, but before he can I cut him off.

"Shiiiiiin, what'd we say about the sleeping? Did you even sleep at all last night?" The bags underneath his eyes are much more prominent than usual, as well as being swollen. Has he been crying as well.

He hesitates before shaking his head.

"You need sleep Shin, its not something you can just skip!" I exclaim. He stares at me in silence.

"Are you ok?" I ask, softening my voice a bit, "you look like you've been crying."

His face hardens a little.

"I'm fine."

He doesn't want to talk to me. He glances at Todoroki and they share a look. A sympathetic look.

So he obviously talked to Todoroki about it.

I understand now.

"Ok then..." I say, turning to walk towards the kitchen, hiding the tears beginning to form.

I almost added in "sorry for trying", but I didn't want to be snarky to him.

It's fine though. I get it. I wasn't really a friend. I was just an opening, an opportunity. Make friends with me, make friends with others. He doesn't need to keep me around anymore.

He doesn't want to keep me around anymore.

"Ouch," i mumble to myself with a half-hearted chuckle as I make a coffee.

I try not to think about it too much, but it doesn't work. And the more I think about it, the more violent my emotions get. There's a lot of hurt, a lot of broken heart, and a lot of anger.

Anger at him for using me as a stepping stone.

Anger at him for being nice to me when he didn't even like me.

Anger at him for getting my hopes up that anyone would actually like me.

But most of all anger at myself. For trusting him, for trying to please him, for liking him.

I'm such an idiot.

"Hi Kam- SHIT OUCH," Mina yells. She went to pat me on the shoulder, but got burnt. I didn't realise electricity was coursing through my body freely.

"Sorry Mina," I say, leaning over to inspect her hand.

"Shit Mina that's really bad! We need to go to recovery girl!" I exclaim. Mina's palm is red raw, and her hand, wrist, and lower arm are puffing up.

"TODOROKI," I yell across the lobby, "CAN YOU FREEZE MINA'S ARM PLEASE."

From my minimal knowledge about burns, ice is good. It draws out the heat so that you don't keep burning underneath the skin.

Todoroki rushes over and draws in the air quickly between his teeth.

"That's a nice burn Mina," he states.

"I know I know it hurts a lot can you please put ice on it so I can go to recovery girl!" She hisses.

He nods and touches her arm with his right hand, covering the affected area with a thin layer of ice.

"I'll come with you so that I can refreeze it when the ice melts," Todoroki says as we walk out the door hurriedly. I just nod.

Shinso's pov

When Kami said it was easy to lose control of his quirk, he wasn't joking. Mina just gave him a pat on the shoulder and her entire arm is burnt and swelling.

As soon as they leave, I turn back to sigh at the couch opposite me.

I feel bad for locking out Kami, I really do, but I can't do anything else. I've spent all night with my emotions aching, and it still hasn't gone away. It stays as a painful knot in the middle of my chest, and a lump in my throat whenever I see him or he talks to me.

My eyes hurt and I have a really bad headache from staying up all night and crying. I definitely don't drink enough water for the amount I cried last night.

I came down early with nothing else to do. Todoroki came down a bit later, about 6am, took one look at me and just said "Kaminari". I nodded and he sat down next to me, not even saying anything else.

I've had a shit night. The only thing that could make it better would be distracting myself with Kami, it doesn't help that he's the problem though.

I want to just go to sleep, but I have to go to school. When I see Bakugo and Kirishima enter the room, I take that as my cue to leave, and make my way out of the building.

I get to UA and prepare myself for the day. I have to make it through with as little communication with Kami as possible.

It's gonna be hard, and it's gonna be hell.

I kinda like angsty Todoroki. I'm tempted to just... leave him sad.

Also I'm sorry, the chapter titles keep getting less and less imaginative lol.
