Snow Birds

Nothing like an Ice Breaker pt2

"DIEEEEEE!!!"

Ah, the sound of bliss.

Deku and Bakugo were playing a shooting game in the arcade. They hadn't completely ended their rivalry but the relationship was a lot less toxic than it used to be, and they can talk to each other about their quirks and progress.

"WERE GONNA BE THE INDISPUTABLE CHAMPIONS OF THE GAME!", he shouted.

Uraraka laughed as she watched them looking from above floating at the side. She had played with the girls on most of the games and had gone roller skating with them as well. The girls had gone to play other games as well as the guys, so she went to watch the two boys play.

"DEKU YOU BASTARD! GET THOSE LOSERS", Bakugo yelled.

"KACCHAN, WE WOULDN'T BE SO FAR BEHIND IF YOU COULD AIM!", he counter attacked.

"WHAT ARE YOU TRYING TO SAY?!", he sneered.

                             GAME OVER

"Ugh what a waste of money.", Midoriya whistled.

"I wonder why."

"I'll play you Bakugo".

Midoriya and Bakugo both looked up at the girl.

"If you insist.", Izuku joked. "You're clearly going to get all the points."

"Shut up Deku, OR ELSE!"

Izuku handed her the plastic heavy gun and then she swiped her card.

"Let's do thisss!", she paraded.

"You'd better not slow me down pink cheeks."

"I could say the same thing."

"Ooooh.", Jiro said as she randomly passed by.

The two started the game and they were both holding their own weight pretty well. Uraraka had fantastic aim and was shooting down the enemies left and right. Bakugo look a peek at the girl just to see how she was holding up and he saw a look of pure determination. He gave an evil grin and once again gave his victory screech once they won.

"DIEEEEEE!!"

Uraraka laughed and joked towards Deku.

"Maybe it really was you Deku- huh where'd he go?"

It was just Bakugo and Uraraka standing with guns in their hands. Looking as safe as ever.

"We woOn!", she said in a sing song voice.

"You did better than I expected."

"Is that how you say good job?"

Baguko rolled his eyes and checked the time on his phone.

3:56pm.

"I'm gonna start leaving, gotta train.", he said putting the gun back it the holster. "I gotta figure out where."

For some reason that made Uraraka a little sad. Probably just because she had a really fun day. That's all.

"If you're just going to train, then why don't you just go to the gym at this mall?", Uraraka asked. "Or back at your house?"

"I'd be in trouble for blowing up my house...and this mall, I guess."

Right.

"Why don't you train at the school then? They're open during this break and I can even help you!", she asked and then realized what she said.

Baguko raised one of his eyebrows.

Oof that felt forward, she thought.

"I-I mean not like in a weird way. I need to t-train as well ya know gotta work on my spacey stuff!"

"Your spacey stuff?", he asked sarcastically.

"Y-yeah...", she wanted to die.

He's so intimidating for some reason. I feel like I'm talking to my manager. Or Mr. Aizawa. So scary, she thought.

Bakugo bent down to her height and gave a dead expression.

"I don't need any help pink cheeks. Thanks for the suggestion however, and I'll take your advice. You can do whatever you want to help your spacey stuff."

He stood back up and started walking back toward the entrance. Uraraka looked dumbfounded and turned her head slowly toward his direction.

"I-I am gonna do whatever I want! And I'm gonna do great!", she called out flustered.

"Yeah! That's the spirit.", Kirishima said.

Uraraka turned back around to her supportive shark friend.

"Thanks Kiri.", she whimpered.

"You look a little sick, mama.", he said concerned. "You alright?"

He felt her forehead and she turned even more red knowing she wasn't sick.

"I'm fine.", she laughed it off.

"Well since you're here, quick question... what's Mina's favorite food."

She put the peices together rather quickly of why he'd want to know such a random answer. She gave him a sly smile and crossed her arms.

"I mean, you have technically known her longer than I have so maybe you should ask.", she replied smugly.

"Come on dude. Unlike you I'm actually trying to pursue the person I like. It wouldn't be manly if I did otherwise.", he replied jokingly.

She scoffed and waved her hands.

"Bakugo's not my crush. This is the first time we've hung out like ever. And he's rude and angry all the time. How could I possibly catch feelings from that?

"I didn't even say who. Look in the mirror if you're gonna be defensive.", he said pulling some gum from his pocket. "You want some?"

She grumbled and pushed his hand away. "She likes okra and natto."

"Aw, thanks Uraraka! You're the best!", he said giving her a fast hug than jogging away.

"Okra... that's different.", she heard him say as he jogged away.

Boys are not that smart, she huffed. How could he say something so controversial!

Why would I like someone as irrational as Bakugo...Though I guess he listened to me. Maybe not? He could've just been me. Even if he doesn't go, she thought, I can still train my quirk why not?

"Hey guys I'm gonna start leaving now okay? Gonna do some training. I could use it.", Uraraka told her friends.

"Call me when your just as big and bad as Bakugo", Kaminari joked.

"What was that?" Kirishima impersonated.

"AIEE!", Kaminari squeaked.

Jiro snorted.

"What the heck man...", Uraraka heard as she waved bye to her friends.
