I'm surrounded by fucking idiots.

"Eeeeh! So, Tetsutetsu confessed?! No way!"

"Trust me, Kirishima-kun, I was around the corner and heard the whole thing."

"Damn that bastard! Trying to beat me at everything!"

Bakugou spared an annoyed glance at the pair of classmates who were chatting near his desk and rolled his eyes. Ashido Mina and Kirishima Eijirou were excited about one thing or another and it pissed him off to no end.

"OI! If you extras are going to chat about stupid shit, do it at your own desks!"

"But Bakugou-kun! Didn't you hear? Ao-chan got confessed to!" the pink-haired girl retorted excitedly.

"Wait, that Steel Bastard confessed to Belly Laser? And? You fuckers got a problem with whom Steel Bastard wants to fuck?"

"No, Bakugou, he confessed to Aoko-chan! Not Aoyama-kun!" Kirishima gently corrected him.

"I don't fucking keep track of what you assholes call each other!" the spikey blonde snarled back, "And? He confessed to her, bet she was dumb as a fucking post and didn't understand what the Steel Bastard meant."

"Oh! Are you guys also talking about Tetsutetsu's confession?"

"Yeah! Come join us!"

"No! Stay the fuck away!"

"Bakugou-kun basically guessed the rest of it, though." Ashido continued, completely ignoring the explosive blonde's angry protest. "Sero-kun, you weren't there, but I felt sorry for Tetsutetsu-kun. He seemed devastated!"

"Oi, oi, Ashido-san, your face doesn't match what you're saying."

"It's true, Sero-kun! I feel bad for the poor thing." Ashido tried her best to show her earnest concern for the Steel version of Kirishima, "And Ao-chan, her responses and reactions were not expected!"

"DAMN IT! LIKE I SAID BEFORE, SHE'S AS DUMB AS A FUCKING POST! WHAT ELSE DID YOU EXPECT?!"

"Hai, hai, Bakugou-kun. But I certainly expected better. This is, after all, a classic love scene!"

"Wait a second, Ashido-san, you're going to have to fill me in on the details." Sero interrupted, "What exactly happened?"

"FOR FUCK'S SAKES! HOW MANY TIMES DOES RACCOON EYES HAVE TO TELL THE STORY?!"

Bakugou didn't even bother to take a breath, and simply continued with his explosive outburst.

"STEEL BASTARD CORNERED AO-NEKO ON HER WAY BACK FROM THE INFIRMARY. HE PROFESSED HIS LOVE FOR HER. SHE DIDN'T GET WHAT HE MEANT. SHE SAID SOME SHIT ABOUT BEING GOOD COMRADES. HE KEPT TALKING ABOUT SOME ROMANTIC SHIT AND THEN RAN OFF WHEN HE THOUGHT SHE MEANT HE WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH FOR HER!" Taking a quick breath, the blonde looked wildly at the people around his desk, "DID I MISS ANYTHING, RACCOON EYES?"

"Nope, that's the basic gist of things," Ashido gave the blonde a toothy grin before continuing, "but, like Bakugou-kun mentioned, it was pretty painful to watch."

Oh for fuck's sakes, why won't you all LEAVE?

This conversation continued on for another solid 15 minutes before Midnight-Sensei came in and the lecture started. At that point, Bakugou was surprised that he hadn't already blasted them to the other side of the room. Holding his pen in a death grip, the ill-tempered blonde waited for a lull in the lecture before casually leaning on his left elbow and resting his head on his closed fist. From there, he subtly glanced over at the blue haired girl sitting behind Kirishima. And of course she was paying attention to what Midnight-sensei was teaching and not randomly glancing at her classmates.

About an hour ago…

"Ano, Aoko-san, can I talk to you for a sec?"

"Oh, Tetsutetsu-san."Aoko said, "What is it about?"

"So, I'm not very good with words and I'm not sure how to go about things like these. So I'll just come out and say it!" Tetsutetsu took a deep breath, and with a very determined look in his eyes, he fired "Aoko-san! I like you! Very much!"

The gray-haired boy subsequently bowed in a very formal manner, while holding out a box of sweets towards Aoko. The girl in question gave Tetsutetsu a Todoroki-level dead-pan look that the Ice-Fire user would be proud of and looked on in confusion.

"Tetsutetsu-san, that is very kind of you."Aoko reached out to take the box of sweets, "But there is no need to be so formal. We are comrades after all."

Standing up straight again, Tetsutetsu had a dusting of pink on his cheeks, hope filling his eyes and he grinned that shark-like smile of his.

"I was worried you wouldn't feel the same, Aoko-san! You are very important to me!"

"You are also important to me as well. We make a good team and I would not let anything bad happen to you."

Heh, idiot.

Unbeknownst to present company, and to Ashido who was hiding around the corner, Bakugou was also at the Infirmary that morning as well for a simple routine check after the fight against the League of Villains a couple of days ago. Aoko's check up had taken a lot less time than his, which pissed him off, but that arrangement basically gave him front row seats to the blue-haired girl's fail at seeing a confession from a mile away. Smirking, the blonde figured his clueless classmate wouldn't know what was happening even if the Steel quirked teen kissed her—

Ugh, gross!

"I understand! I must become even stronger! So that I can stand next to you!"

"You are already quite amazing, Tetsutetsu-san."

"Just you wait! I will become even stronger! And I will be good enough for you!"

Rushing forward, Tetsutetsu takes Aoko's hands in his and looking deep into her eyes,

"Aoko-san, please wait for me. I promise I won't disappoint you!"

With that declaration, Tetsutetsu rushed off to some part of the school, possibly in search of ways to better improve himself so that he can be accepted by the one he desires.

"Did I say something wrong?"

A questioning chirp responds to Aoko's question, and without another thought, the blue-haired girl made her way towards the 1-A Classroom, but not before being asked by Cementoss-sensei to help carry a huge stack of books back to the library.

"Are you quite done eavesdropping, Bakugou-kun?"

"What? I'm not doing anything illegal." Without looking at Recovery Girl, "Thanks, Baa-san." Bakugou left the Infirmary and also headed back to class and to the annoying conversations about the failed confession between Ao-Neko and Steel Bastard.

Back to the present…

"Kacchan!"

"What, Shitty Nerd?"

"I can't reach!"

"Tch. Fine, here!"

Shoving the handouts at Midoriya, the blonde sat back down with a huff and counted the seconds until class was over so he could go let off some steam during the Hero Training course.

"All right, now that everyone has their hand outs, please open your textbooks to page 247!"
