Another morning.

Another day.

And another boring school life.

You sighed as you looked out the window. There's nothing to do, other than listening to your teacher's blabber. School is so boring. You can't even stand everyone in this class!

'Well, except him...'

Your thoughts trailed off as you looked at the green haired boy to your far right. Midoriya Izuku. Everyone bullied him for being quirkless, but you couldn't care less. He's pretty sweet once you get to know him.

You let a small smile fell on your lips as you remembered how he always talked about heroes with such passion.

You shook your head lightly and turned your attention to the blank page of your sketchbook on your desk. You wanted to take notes but decided that you're too lazy to do it. Midoriya always let you borrow his notes anyway and his notes are fun to looked at, not to mention the little notes he added along with some doodles here and there.

You picked up your pencil and started doodling some flowers and plants. Those things always calmed you in a way. And you can make some herbs from them. Your cousin is the one who suggest this activity to you and you couldn't be more thankful!

"...But all of you are planning to aim for the Hero Course, right?"

You're snapped out of your thoughts as the teacher asked that question. Everyone cheered and started showing off their quirk. You rolled your eyes at their response.

You decided to ignore them and continue drawing. That is, until a certain explosive quirk boy make a scene and called the others his stepping stone.

"Ah, that's right! (L/N) got accepted into U.A through the Ultimate Hunt and join the Ultimate Course right?"

You stiffen as you could feel the gaze of your classmates. You wish you have your scarf with you so you could cover your face with it but the stupid school won't allow you to wear it.

"Wow, the Ultimate Course!"

"She managed to get accepted?!!"

"I never knew she had some extraordinary talent!"

You rolled your eyes at the last comment, 'That's because none of you take the time to get along with me. Always judging people by their looks. How stupid.' you thought.

A certain ash blonde haired boy walk over to your desk with an angry expression, "What the hell do you think you're doing?!! I'm supposed to be the only one from this school to get accepted into U.A!!" He yelled.

You glared up at him, "And? What do you want me to do? Waltzed into U.A and tell them I resigned? In your dreams. And you need to stop looking down at everyone else, you might regret it. Midoriya-kun over there could become a better hero than you if you keep that act of yours up. Foolish imbecile" you taunt, smirking up at him.

"WHO ARE YOU CALLING A FOOLISH IMBECILE YOU BI-"

"Oh yeah, Midoriya also applied for U.A right?"

After that last sentence from your teacher, the class explode in laughter. Bakugou's face darkened as he walked over to the nervous boy's desk, leaving your desk.

You decide to ignore them and went back to your drawing, praying that Midoriya could leave the class unscathed at the end of the day.

~~~

As the final bell rang, you packed up your belongings and put them into your bag. Remembering that you need to borrow today's note from Midoriya, you approached said boy.

"Hey Midoriya-kun"

He jump and turned around, "(L-L/N)-san!"

"Oh, sorry. Did I startled you?"

"N-no, it's okay! H-how can I help you?"

"May I borrow your notebook? Again?"

The broccoli headed boy chuckled as he rummage through his bag, "Were you doodling again?" He asked as he handed you several notebooks.

You shook your head and smiled sheepishly at him, "The class is so boring afterall! I can't help but get distracted!" You said as you put the notebooks inside your bag.

"You got accepted into U.A's Ultimate Course right (L/N)-san? What's your title? How does it feel to get recommend?" He asked rapidly.

"W-whoa! Calm down Midoriya-kun!" You said as you pat his shoulder. He muttered out an apology and stared at you expectantly.

"Oh. Yeah. I got accepted as the SHSL Botanist or Ultimate Botanist... And um I guess I'm very happy and excited when I got the invitation because my cousin also attend the Ultimate Course..." You said.

"Your cousin is an Ultimate too?!! What's their title?!" He ask excitedly. You just laugh, "That's for me to know and you to found out!"

He smiled sadly at you, "I hope I can get accepted into U.A too..."

You frown at his pessimistic remark, "Don't worry, Midoriya-kun. I know you will become a great hero one day! But if you didn't get accepted to the Hero Course, maybe you can get into the Ultimate Course as the Ultimate Hero Otaku or something..."

He just stared at you, eyes wide. You tilt your head in confusion, "Hey Midori- Huh?!! Why are you crying? Did I offended you by calling you a Hero Otaku?!" You asked worriedly at the crying boy.

"N-no! It's just... I-I'm so happy!" He cried. You're honestly confused but pat his shoulder anyway, albeit reluctantly. A pathetic awkward attempt to calm him down.

"It's alright Midoriya-kun. Let's go home together!" you smiled at him. He returned the gesture, "Sorry, (L/N)-san but I'm on cleaning duty today so I can't go home earlier" he replied.

"Oh... Well that's fine! See you next week, Midoriya-kun. Have a nice weekend" you smiled at him and went out of the classroom.

As you're exiting the classroom, you bumped into someone.

"Get out of my way, you b*tch!!"

You glared up at Bakugou, "I've had enough of your nonsense for the day, so either you get out of my way or I'll shove these poisonous shrooms down your throat" you hissed as you slammed your hand and summon some poisonous mushroom from the wall next to you.

He glared down at you but get out of your way anyway. You smirk as you collect the mushrooms you've summoned and put them into your bag.

You shove past his so called friends and went back home.
