My Hero Acadamia Short Stories (Volume 1)

Rhythm: Part 2 (Sero)

For the next two weeks I would drop what I was doing at the same time after school to run down to the studio to dance with Sero after he was done practicing with his cousin. 

But today when I walked into the studio, I was instantly met with his cousin.

"So this is the little bitch you said can dance better than me?" She screamed in my face, and I instantly thought she was going to hit me. 

"Maria, that's not what I said!" Sero yelled at her, and tried grabbing her to keep her from attacking me. "I told you, I was getting extra practice with a friend! I said nothing about one being better than the other!"

"Oh but your mama has a lot to say on the fact that she's all you talk about!" Maria yelled back at him, and looked like she was about to attack him.

"Y/n, will you please leave?" Sero asked me, he looked really pissed. "I'll catch up with you later."

"O-okay." I said, and walked out of the studio. Even after getting to the end of the hallway, I could hear his cousin screaming.

I walked back to the dorms, and the whole Bakugo squad was in the commons area hanging out.

"Hey y/n!" Denki called out, and I turned to look at him. "We're going to play Candyland, wanna join in?"

"Yeah come join us!" Mina said. "Since Bakugo is being Mister Grumpy Pants."

"I am not!" He yelled at her.

"Oh, no thanks guys." I told them. "I'm not feeling too great at the moment." I said and before they could say anything I bolted up the stairs to my dorm room. 

I plopped down on my bed and kind of felt like crying. I was really getting the hang of Bachata, and I was really happy to being able to spend time with Sero. 

I liked him. It was obvious to me. My heart would flutter every time he smiles at me. His eyes are beyond gorgeous. And every time he laughed, god did my heart leap.

I grabbed my pillow and groaned into it, hugging it tightly to my chest at the same time.

Even though Sero was happy to teach me Bachata, in the past few weeks, we haven't actually danced together. In fact he didn't even touch me, except to guide me when he needed to. And he never really tried talking to me outside of class either.

Every time I would try and spark up a conversation with him, he would walk away at the first chance he got.

"I should probably call off the lessons." I sighed to myself. 

But that's if he wasn't going to call it off already. After the incident with Maria, he didn't look happy. Whether it was me or his cousin. Probably both.

I stood up from my bed, and cleaned some stuff off my floor and grabbed my earbuds. I popped them in, and started playing one of my random playlists.

POV: Sero

I walked into the dorms building, rubbing my head trying to ease the headache I got from Maria screaming at me.

"Hey there Sero!" Someone said as I walked into the commons room. "We're playing board games, wanna join?" Denki asked and had a massive smile on his face, my guess was that he was winning.

"Hey guys." I said and leaned over the back of the couch. "And maybe later."

"Are you not feeling good either?" Kirishima asked, and I cocked my head to the side.

"What are you talking about?" I asked him.

"Y/n came through here a little bit ago, we tried getting them to join but they said they didn't feel good." Mina said, and groaned as she landed on a bad spot.
