Shinkami - think I'm into you

Bakugo punches something (or someone)

Shinso's pov

Turns out, avoiding Kami wouldn't be that hard today.

He didn't talk to me in class as usual, in fact, he didn't even look at me the entire time. He was fixated on the board.

And the second the bell rang, he was straight out the door. Not a look, not a smile my way.

Its for the better, I tell myself. It'll make the pain go away quicker.

So instead of following after him, I go over to Todoroki's group.

"Hey, can I sit with you guys again?" I ask, tapping Midoriya on the shoulder.

"Of course!" He beams back. It's painfully similar to Kami's, but I push the thought to the back of my mind as quickly as possible.

I need to stop thinking about him.

Kaminari's pov

Now my suspicions are confirmed. He didn't even try to talk to me during class, didn't ask me if I was alright.

He used to care so much. What happened? Was that all a facade?

'Get through this and then you'll have decent friends'

It hurts a lot. As soon as I grab my food at the cafeteria, I hurry out as quickly as possible.

Shinso was the only one who cared last time I was upset. And now I find out that he actually never liked me. My 'friends' must like me even less than he does.

They probably only consoled me because it looks bad to kick out a long lasting friend.

I'm about to exit the cafeteria when I feel a hand on my shoulder.

"And where do you think you're going?" Mina asks.

I look up at her. She's wearing a sling while her arm recovers from this morning (this morning really needs to be one word. thismorning). I forgot about that. I wouldn't blame them if they hated me, in such a shitty friend.

I try to pull my arm out of her grasp, but she tightens her grip.

"Kami you look like you're about to cry are you ok?" Mina asks softly.

"I know that you all hate me, you don't need to pretend to care," I say stiffly, trying to yank my arm again.

"Why would we hate you! Babes we love you so much, and I care that somethings upsetting you." She envelops me in a hug, and that's when 'about to cry' becomes 'crying'.

I start sobbing over her shoulders. I can't keep it in. I always knew that some people didn't like me, but I never thought he would be one of them. I trusted him so much.

She pulls out of the hug and grabs my hand, pulling me towards our usual spot. When we sit down, everyone takes one look at my tear stained face and starts asking questions.

"What happened?" "Dude are you ok?" "Which shitty extra made you cry this time."

"Hey hey everyone shut up and let him talk!" Mina said over everyone, and they quietened down. "Babes do you want to talk about it?" She says, patting my back. Usually I would be annoyed by the babying, but right now I don't really care.

"I..." I can barely get a word out before the whole situation makes me burst into tears again. They all sit in silence, watching me worriedly while Mina pats my back soothingly and I continue to sob into my hands.

I finally get myself under control and take in a few deep, shuddering breaths.

"Shinso's completely ignoring me. And I don't even know what I did wrong." I pause to take another shuddering breath, so that I don't burst into tears again.
