Protecting Him

Chapter 66. The Big Three

The days passed by, Izuku's house arrest was over and things were getting to be back to normal, at least that's what I thought.

"Now that Midoriya is back... let's talk about work studies for real." Aizawa began, he then looked towards the door and called out, "Come on in."

I wonder if it's the upperclassmen Aizawa told me about, what did he call them? Ah yes, they're...

"Out of all the students at UA these are the top three reigning third-years... we call them the Big Three."

In came a blonde cheerful looking boy, a beautiful long blue haired girl, and a serious but sweet looking indigo haired boy.

Everyone began making their comments of admiration for them.

"Let's get right to it. How about some introductions? Starting with you Amajiki." Aizawa motioned the indigo haired boy.

Said boy gave us all such an intense stare which made everyone in class stiffen. I on the other hand tilted my head confused. I didn't get an intimidating vibe from him.

"It's no good, Mirio... Hado... I was going for potatoes but... they all still look like people from the neck down." Amajiki looked upset, dare I say even shy. "What do I do? Having trouble speaking..." He stuttered. "My mind's gone blank. It hurts! I wanna go now!"

I blinked several times to see him suddenly turn his back to us. 'Is he okay?' I was hesitant to ask.

"Isn't it funny that people call that having the heart of a flee? So weird!" The blue haired girl spoke up. "He's Amajiki Tamaki, the flea and I'm Hado Nejire. We came here today to talk to you about work studies."

But then... said cheerful girl began asking out random questions to random students. Including me.

"Ahh! You must be [L/name] [Name]! You're the girl with multiple quirks." The blue haired girl addressed me.

I bashfully nodded, "Yeah... that's me."

"You had a baby boy who's actually your little brother right? Where is he?" she asked joyfully.

"Uhh..." I mumbled awkwardly.

"She's not the most rational person is she?" Aizawa addressed the blonde boy.

"Not to worry Eraserhead! I'm the main act here!! The outlook's looking..." our full attention turned towards him as he hollered out, he then placed his hand on his ear as if waiting for us to shout an answer back but it never came. "Grim! The answer's grim. Well that didn't go so well!!"

Despite the latter part he said, he seemed awfully cheerful. Part of me wondered how he did that. My mind wandered back to thinking how a person could achieve that level of calmness and happiness. Would I ever be capable of being like Togata Mirio?

"And since our talk here isn't going so well..." I blinked away from my reveries and began to listen again, only to be shocked to hear Togata say, "How about... you all take me on!?"

Multiple gasps were heard.

"Come on Neechan, I want to watch this! I heard about the Big Three when I was posing as a baby." Hiro, who had finished his online class early had me dragging through the halls on our way to Gym Gamma.

"Hiro, they're not going anywhere." I giggled.

I sighed in relief knowing we had made it in time. Aizawa was kind enough to let Hiro join us as long as I kept a watchful eye on him.

Hiro's eyes practically sparkled as he saw the Big Three. The moment Hado and Hiro made eye contact, the two of them got along quite well. Hado was very kind to Hiro, so was Togata who carried him and said he was a little tricky boy who could made everyone believe he was a baby. Hiro was even able to get the shy Amajiki boy to talk to him. And I've got to say, Amajiki's smile was a precious thing to see.
