December 22

Shizuko was restless. Early in the morning, their class representative knocked on her dorm room waking her from her 5 hour sleep.

It was currently 9 am. And as class H's Vice representative, she has been dragged to the mall to buy gifts for all of their classmates.

All twenty of them.

Who had the great idea of planning a Christmas Party at the 24th staying up until midnight and falling asleep in the lounge?

Their homeroom teacher did.

It will be fun, he said.

It will be a great bonding experience, he said.

Says the one who won't attend because the teachers have a separate celebration-

It was a drag, and Shizuko didn't even get the chance to drop off her pre-made letter at class A's doorstep.

As of now, she and their president: (now who will be introduced as Elaine, a petite African-American girl with short curly hair and pretty brown eyes) was walking to the train station.

"I'm really sorry for bothering you so early in the morning Saito-san" the ravenette said sheepishly.

"It's fine." The pinkette (?) Replied nonchalantly, sure she was salty because of the lack of sleep she's receiving and sure she was annoyed for not dropping off the envelope (which is a risk knowing her fascination towards the hot headed hero course student) but honestly, she can't really say no to the petite girl.

She really can't.

"I've written the wishlist of our classmates." The brown eyed girl said.
"Thankfully they don't really want big things just er... Easy to find stuff."

Saito peered over her shoulder, scanning the list and using her quirk to make a mental note of it.

"Seems easy enough." She nodded in agreement as they exit the train station.

A little later they arrived at the mall. It was still a bit early but the crowd was buzzing, probably because of the early Christmas sale that was happening at the moment.

Since there was 20 of them in the class Elaine and Shizuko split up and agreed to meet at one of the fast food chains by lunch.

"Moriyama wants new hiking boots." Shizuko muttered as she walks across the mall scanning from shop to shop only to feel a bit lost. She sighed opting to just go back and ask Elaine with it.

'The last one just has to be the most difficult one huh' she thought bitterly, not noticing the hand that was waving at her face until it flat out poked her nose.

"Oi cat ears." Spoke the gruff voice of Bakugo Katsuki. Oh right she was wearing her hat again-

"I've been calling your fucking name for minutes." He said slipping his hands into his black coat pocket. (That's not really her name but alright-)

Shizuko blinked, her blue eyes meeting with his red ones. "Bakugo?"

The ruby eyed male scoffed "The one and fucking only."

"What are you doing here?" The pink haired girl asked.

"Shitty hair wanted to buy some fucking hair dye, he ran out. Then dragged me along with him." He responded averting his gaze.

"Ah," Shizuko hummed not seeing any companion with the ash blond at all. "I see."

"How about you?" Bakugo inquired matching his pace with hers.

As they walk along the crowded place Shizuko explained how she was assigned to but presents for her class. She also mentioned how she's almost done with only one thing needed in the list; Hiking boots. To which Katsuki d̶r̶a̶g̶g̶e̶d̶  offered to take her to a shop he particularly liked.

Finally getting the last item on the wishlist, she and Bakugo proceeded to talk, until it was time to part ways.

Katsuki watched as Shizuko waved at him as she walks off. He turned, meeting with Kirishima's baffled expression, a finger pointing straight at him and mouth wide open.

"The fuck?" He asked loudly as Kirishima opened and closed his mouth unable to form the correct words.

"You- girl- alone- "

"Speak properly damn it!" The explosive male snapped.

"HOW ARE YOU ALONE WITH A GIRL WITHOUT SCARING HER OFF?!"

Dear Bakugo Katsuki

It was when they arrived when he was informed another letter arrived for him.

Immediately Bakugo snatched the Pastel green envelope out of Midoriya's hands and sprinted of to his room as fast as All Might could say Plus Ultra.

Who knew writing a letter could be so hard? Honestly, I have no idea what to talk about right now. Maybe as I write an idea will come to me? P̶r̶o̶b̶a̶b̶l̶y̶ n̶o̶t̶.

Anyways, how are you today? I hope you aren't getting bored of the letters I write to you.

"Never." Katsuki mused.

I think you'd look handsome when you smile.

Not that I'm saying you aren't handsome right now but er.. you get the point? I̶ s̶u̶c̶k̶ a̶t̶ c̶o̶m̶p̶l̶i̶m̶e̶n̶t̶s̶ f̶o̶r̶g̶i̶v̶e̶ m̶e̶.  It was a random thought that suddenly came to me and all of a sudden I feel... Giddy? Is that the term?

Anyway. I was listening to a playlist when a song suddenly popped up.

Peter Pan by EXO.

To be frank, the lyrics made me think about you f̶o̶r̶ s̶o̶m̶e̶ r̶e̶a̶s̶o̶n̶. And I guess it made me realize, that maybe one day I won't be the Wendy you will choose to love. T̶h̶e̶ p̶r̶o̶b̶a̶b̶i̶l̶i̶t̶y̶ o̶f̶ y̶o̶u̶ c̶h̶o̶o̶s̶i̶n̶g̶ m̶e̶ i̶s̶ s̶i̶x̶t̶y̶ p̶e̶r̶c̶e̶n̶t̶? And I guess I have to accept that.

I hope you'll fall for someone just like how I've fallen for you.

I hope they'll see the different sides of you and see how amazing and caring you really are.

I'm going to cut this short here. I'm really tired and this is my what... 5th revision?

Merry almost Christmas.

Sincerely yours.

Reading the letter Bakugo huffed.

"Dumbass." He said, the corners of his mouth twitching a smile.

"I'm already falling for you too."

I'm looking at you and smiling
(너와 바라보며 웃고 있어)

I'm your eternal Peter Pan
(난 영원한 너의 피터팬)

Your man stopped at that time
(그 시간에 멈춘 니 남자)

I'm clumsy but I go to you, who I loved so much
(서툴지만 너무 사랑했던 나의 너에게 다녀가)
