ELLO LUVS WELCOME BACK HEHE 

I'm so so so so so freaking sorry for not updating, I got into big trouble (lol) and got grounded since like way before Christmas I think lol. again vv sorry :)

Also this is the part where we kinda go a little off the plot here of MHA, just wanted to warn you a lil there, okie have fun reading!

...

I opened the door to my dorm roughly and quickly shut it behind me, my eyelids fluttering. I let out a shaky breath, slowly stalking to my bed. I allowed myself to flop onto the mattress, my legs and arms sprawled out across it. I stared up at the ceiling and wiped the sweat off my forehead.

Tomorrow was the Hero Licensing Exam.

I didn't feel like I was ready yet.

I had trained with Katsuki every night until sundown. He went in to eat and sleep. But I stayed out, working on my gusts of wind, my dangerous fire. I'd stay out until 3 in the morning or until I felt I would pass out.

I would practice that punch, a few sweep kicks, and dodging when Katsuki was with me. I still hadn't landed one hit on him.

I felt like I had truly given my all, but I still couldn't control half of my power. Aizawa told me I'd be fine, but I faltered. Katsuki told me to quit worrying, but I couldn't. Everyone was telling me I would pass but, I didn't believe them.

I was too far behind.

Scalding tears trailed down my cheeks as my eyes slid closed, my mind drifting off. I won't make it. 

It kept repeating until my body shut down.

...

The alarm clock that Aizawa gave me startled me awake. My eyes strained from the light that filtered through the curtains as I sat up slowly to shut off the alarm. I stand up and put my uniform on when I remind myself I get my hero costume today. It brought me little joy. I pop my fingers as I step outside my dorm, slinging my backpack over my shoulder. I sighed deeply as I willed my features to become more welcoming.

"Y/N-chan! Hurry up!" Mina waved at me as people started to filter out of the dorms. I smiled shyly as I jogged out of the dorm. 

"Are you excited?" Uraraka asked us.

"I'm nervous more than anything," Momo stated her eyes falling down to the ground.

"I'm sure you'll do amazing Momo, you have nothing to worry about!" I gushed, my mind thinking the opposite about myself. She blushed and thanked me. They pumped each other up and I fell back again, my mind getting the best of me.

You are strong. But what if I'm not as strong as you think Grammy?

"Oi, Nightlight. Why the hell you look so pissed?" I jumped and almost hit him.

"Damn it Katsuki-" I took a deep breath. "What do you mean?"

"You know what I mean smartass, fess up." He said, looking at me gently. I only stayed in silent denial. I wasn't about to tell him everything about my mind, no. I couldn't. He's smart, smarter than he looks, and could be using me for information. Getting close to me only to leave. Leave with my weaknesses. Not again.

"Just thinking." I thought quickly of a lie. "I tried to do research on the exam but I think it changes every year, I couldn't find any tips." I sighed, telling him a half-truth. I heard this only because of Mydoriya's constant mumbling. For once I silently thanked him for this delicious lie.

"If you're doubting yourself again Y/n- Nightlight, I'll kill you. I've trained you for this, if the great Katsuki Bakugou trains you, you can't lose, okay?" I nodded along with his words.
