Kirishima sat at the back of the bus, watching the rain pour down the other side of the window.
This was their first day back since the Sports Festival.

I haven't seen Y/n since the award ceremony

He quietly thought back to her face, her expression very different than usual. She had been very lively ever since they had grown closer as a class and she had gotten over Bakugo and Todoroki's words on the first day.
She was now the first person anyone would call if they were feeling down. There was something about her, that just made everyone happy.

And to think I was worried about her not fitting in after what happened at the Quirk Apprehension Test

"EIJIRO WE'RE GETTING OFF" Y/n shouted from the doors. She had spotted her friend a while ago, but due to the rain, the bus was more full than usual and it was impossible for her to reach him.
Kirishima looked over at the girl, waving her hand vigorously, making sure he could see her.

Did she just use my first name?

Kirishima blushed, repeating the sound of her saying his first name over and over in his head as he followed Y/n off the bus.
He opened up his umbrella and felt two cold hands clasp on to his arm.
He looked over at the girl next to him and started laughing as they walked.

Y/n gave him a sheepish grin.

"Yes I forgot my umbrella"

"How do you forget your umbrella when it's been raining since last night. Did you not look out of the window this morning?" he asked.

At least she seemed back to normal.

"I was in a rush and didn't think while leaving, I nearly missed the bus" she explained, walking side by side with the red head.

"Izuku!" Y/n greeted as they passed by the boy with the green hair. Kirishima waved at him, his toothy grin accompanying his greeting.

"Hey Y/n, how are you?" he asked, his gaze traveling down to her hands and then back up at her face.

"Good as new, as if I had never been grilled by Todoroki Shoto" she smiled.
Y/n grabbed both their arms and dragged them to school, excited to be back.

Aizawa stood at the front of the class, papers in hand.

"Alright students, today, we will be doing something that will come in handy in the near future" he explained, his tired eyes going from one face to another.

"You'll be choosing your hero names" their teacher said, followed by a chorus of shouts and whistles from the class.

"However, I am not classified for these kind of things so I called in some help" was the last thing Aizawa said before curling up in to his sleeping bag.
The door to the entrance opened, revealing Midnight in the frame.

"And that's where I come in" she winked. She moved to the front of the class and smiled.

"Alright I want some cute, simple names which capture your essence as a hero" she beamed. Y/n looked over at Izuku and laughed at his thinking face. She knew he probably had no idea what to go for.

Not that I really thought about it

"You have 15 minutes and then we will start presenting with who's ready" the pro hero said, starting the timer.

Y/n put her head down, her pen in hand as she thought.

What could go well with me as a hero?

She turned towards the class, seeing people write down name after name. Everyone seemed determined to find the perfect name and rightly so. As Midnight said, these names usually describe the kind of hero the person is or at least the general vibe that they give off.
