It had been raining for the past few weeks nonstop. It was like exams and rain went hand in hand and Ochako was starting to get a little sick of it. Sure she liked rain, but she was itching to go swimming at the secret lake she had found. She had found it a little while before exams had started, but it had never been warm enough to go swimming. It was tucked away behind dense foliage and cherry blossom trees that hung over both the lake and fields of colorful wildflowers. Today the forecast called for sun and hot weather, so naturally she was very happy to unwind from the stress of exams by relaxing and playing in the water. She lifted her backpack from her chair, slinging it over her back. She clutched her water bottle, which she had filling with sweet lemonade before she left her dorm that morning, just for the purpose of her after school plans. Not only did she plan her beverage she also had her swimsuit, the color of pink bubblegum, under her uniform. There was only one thing missing.
Katsuki Bakugo.
She tapped the tall boy's shoulder. Lately he had been more hostile than usual due to the stress from exams. There had been whispers among the class that he hadn't been getting much sleep at night due to studying so he could be the top of class. He whipped around, obviously startled, and sent her a glare that would make most of the others run away in fear. She didn't care though, she was determined.
"What the hell do you want?" He snapped. She just sent him a sweet smile.
"You." That made his face turn a shade of red. When she realized what she had said she quickly tried to explain. "I meant I was looking for you, and I found you, and anyway I want you to meet me outside the girl's dorm in about an hour." She was doing her best not to stutter from embarrassment.
He furrowed his eyebrows. "And why the fuck should I do that?"
"Well, I know that you've been stressed due to exams, so I want to help you destress." Before he could refuse, she turned away and headed for the door of the classroom. "Oh." She turned to look at him over her shoulder. "Wear a swimsuit."
She was shocked to find that he had actually followed her directions. He stood outside the girl's dorm dressed in just swim trunks. She made a small noise of amusement at the face they were decorated with a fire design. Her own swimsuit was pink, with little blue Saturns all over it. When he noticed her a small red blush spread over his face.
"You're late." He grumbled, looking away from her. She just let out a small laugh.
"Follow me." She led him behind the large building and down towards the forest behind it that hid her safe haven. They walked in silence a while until, him following just a few feet behind where she walked. "Ta-da." She grinned when they had arrived.
He looked around at the little clearing that surrounded the lake. "Why did you bring me here?" Despite his gruff response to it, she could tell he liked it. She spread her towel under one of the trees and set her lemonade beside it. She handed him the water bottle she had brought for him. "Lemonade." She said simply, grinning up at him.
He just stared at her for a while, before grabbing it out of her hands. She skipped over towards the cool water of the small lake and waded into it. It didn't go very deep, so she was able to stand up despite her being fairly short. The water was warm due to the sun and she breathed a happy sigh. She glanced over at the boy she had brought along with her. He sat under the tree next to her towel, sipping angrily on the lemonade she had brought him.
"Why don't you come in." She called to him. "The water is great." He only shook his head, mumbling something about not liking water or something. She hummed in thought a moment before a devious plan sprouted in her head. "Hey can you come help me out of the water?" She asked, rather innocently. He huffed in reply, but set down his drink and moved over towards the water to grab her hand. Instead of getting out, she pulled on the hand the grasped hers, pulling him into the water. He let out a surprised noise as he landed with a splash.
"What the hell." He yelled. He turned to glare at her giggling form next to him. He grabbed her shoulders with warm hands and started to shake her. "Why would you do that, this isn't funny." She looked up at him, a smile still on her face.
"You're right, it's hilarious."
He just growled, his eyes narrow. They were standing in the water, pretty close at that point with his hands still on her shoulders. He smelled like fireworks and burning candles, but he also smelled of the lemonade she had given him. Without thinking about what she was doing, she stood on her tiptoes, and placed a kiss to the tip of his nose. His eyes widened and he looked down at her for a moment. He leaned down towards her and placed his lips on hers. She didn't hesitate to return the kiss, their lips moved together. He nipped at her bottom lip and she opened her mouth for him, his mouth tasted red bull and coffee, which he had most likely been drinking to stay awake so he could study, with a hint of lemonade.

Both song and oneshot in Ochako's point of view.
I'm going to stop putting the "listen here" thing at the end of these because I don't think the links are working so if you'd like to listen to the songs, you can look them up on Youtube.]
