The night after the written part of the exams were finished, some of the members of class A had gathered in the school gyms to train for the practical exam, as there wasn't really a way to study for those besides training. Momo had suggested to Jirou that she train with her, and Jirou (to Momo's surprise, she had expected Jirou to want to train with Kaminari) had accepted. Currently, the two girls were doing an activity where Jirou was blasting her heartbeats as loud as she could, while Momo was making devices to try to block out the sound while attempting to take down Jirou. Momo, however, kept losing every round as she was a little... distracted by how hot Jirou was when she was in action.

"Momo, this is the fifth time that you've spaced out during this training. It's not like you to lose focus. Is there something going on?"

Momo blushed. "No, I'm just a bit, um, nervous for my date with Todoroki, that's all," she lied.

"Aw don't be nervous Momo! I bet he's just as scared as you are. I know Denki definitely was when I went on my first date with him!"

"Oh right Kaminari," Momo muttered to herself. Momo had been so lost in Jirou's perfect complexion that she nearly had forgotten about the electrification user altogether.

"Did you say something?" Jirou asked.

"Oh, no, it was nothing, I've just got a lot on my mind."

"Like what?"

"Well..." Momo's face turned an even deeper shade of red. "Would it be the end of the world if you, say, didn't go to the dance with Kaminari?"

"Why on earth wouldn't I? You're supposed to come with a date and he is my boyfriend after all."

"Well have you ever considered, maybe, that there might be someone else out there for you? Someone maybe a bit... more intelligent?"

"Like who?"

"I don't know, a girl maybe?"

"Yaomomo you are well aware that I'm bi," Jirou said, crossing her arms. "Are you suggesting that I'm not because I'm in a relationship with someone of the opposite gender?"

"No, of course not, but I was wondering if you'd be interested in dating a girl, just to see what it's like."

"Look Yaoyorozu, I'm flattered, but I have a boyfriend."

Momo stepped back. Her close friends, especially Jirou, usually only referred to her by last name when they were being serious. "You...you know that I like you?"

"I'm not stupid Yaoyorozu. I've seen the way you look at me in class and how you always act disgusted whenever I kiss Denki. I've kinda had the suspicion for a while and the questions you asked me just now kinda confirmed it. I'm gonna go find my boyfriend, because at least he knows how to not get distracted by me when training," Jirou started to walk towards the exit.

"Jirou wait!" Momo yelled out, but by the time she had said anything Jirou had already left the gym. Momo sat down and began to cry. She had just been rejected by and potentially lost her friendship with the person who meant the most to her. Momo couldn't even find it in herself to get up and leave the gym. She lied on the floor, tears streaming down her face for about ten minutes until she heard the door open to reveal none other then class B's president and big fist user.

"Hey Momo! Haven't seen you in awhile! Is this gym taken? I was planning to get some independent training done in here-" Kendo looked closer to see Momo on the floor in tears. "Oh my goodness Momo, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just some friendship troubles," Momo said, slowly getting up.

"Do you need someone to talk about it? I know we tend to be rivals during training but we are friends after all!"
