Temptress: Cursed Blessing [BNHA X OC]

63

After the task, the twelve were gathered by Gang Orca for final set of instructions.

"Work together and grasp the hearts of those kids. You did a good job with such vague instructions," Gang Orca says, gaining deadpans on the note that the pro hero admitted that he had been unclear. "The rest of you also did a good job! Remember what you learned at the training and work hard next time too! You all have much potential—" the hero compliments, which earns a smile from discerning eyes on his behavioral shift. Gang Orca notices this subtle gesture and steps forward to yell in a reprimanding tone, "I mean, you damn kids!"

"Sir, yes, Sir!" the group enthusiastically replies, with one particular teen stopping herself from snorting loud at their soft teacher.

On their way out—Katsuki leading first followed by Kei and Shoto then Inasa and Camie, the five teens from UA and Shiketsu walk together, with Inasa engaging in a conversation with Shoto. "After thinking about it, I totally like you now! Our quirks are good together, too!"

"I see," Shoto monotonously replies.

"Awe, Sho ~ are you already forming a harem without me?" Kei, who was walking beside the bi-toned male, pouts as she pokes the said male's side. This remark catches the keen red hues of a particular blonde who has his scowl deepened.

Shoto notices Katsuki's change in demeanor and gives the UA female a meaningful glance. "Harem? But I am only set on one person."

Kei ponders on who the male was referring to as she locks her gaze with a set of different hues. As full three seconds pass by without either of them averting their eyes, the female feels an odd ticklish sensation spreading on her stomach.

"I was talking about yo—" Shoto was about to finish his statement, together with the already intense ambiance, when Kei was snatched off from his side and into Katsuki's arms.

"You're taking too damn long, woman," Katsuki hisses with his signature scornful look. 'Not happening, half-n-half bastard' he internally growls.

"What's the rush, Full Moon?" Kei blinks at the abrupt pull, internalizing the sudden burst of attitude from the male.

Shoto, displeased of the interruption, tries to push off the other male to the further edge. "She's right, Bakugo. What's the rush? We were just about to go home anyway." He hums shortly, "It's unnecessary to drag Kei to your side. You've been inconveniencing her a lot this day."

Katsuki, knowledgeable of the other male's light implication of his motives, clicks his tongue in annoyance. "Hurry up so I can rest early."

The bi-toned male bites his tongue, holding off his urge to express his train of thoughts. No, not yet—not in front of Shiketsu High School.

"Anyway, Bakugo, you're actually not bad if you, like, shut up," Camie chimes in from the back.

"No, you shut up!" Katsuki scowls.

Kei giggles at his remark together with the Shiketsu female's courage of getting under Katsuki's skin today. "I swear, you both have secret shippers somewhere," the UA female murmurs.

This commentary does not slip by Katsuki's perking ears. "You dumbass! The only ship sailing here will be our—"

"—Mine and Yoarashi's" Shoto interjects, totally cropping the blonde's statement.

Kei's eyes lighten up, jogging back to Shoto and Inasa's middle. "So Sho ~ were you referring to Inasa awhile back, hm?"

"I mean, I like you but I don't like you that way!" Inasa boldly rejects the idea with his signature smile.
