With an ear-shattering roar, Bakugo smashed into Midoriya, tackling him -and Ochaco- to the ground. Midoriya shouted protests as Bakugo tossed him around the dirt, Ochaco's arm bent in ways it shouldn't. Something peeled Bakugo away from them just as Ochaco's arm felt ready to snap from being shoved forcefully underneath her.
"Bakugo! Dude, calm down!" Kirishima's voice rang.
"What the hell are you doing shitty-hair?!" Bakugo growled.
" … said no… fighting each other!" Kirishima yelled between gulping breaths while he tried to restrain Bakugo. Todoroki offered his assistance by freezing Bakugo's legs to the ground.
"Why didn't you just do that in the first place?" Kirishima sighed to his partner, releasing Bakugo's shoulders. Todoroki smiled wryly. The two of them stepped over to Ochaco and Midoriya, extending hands down to each.
"Thanks," Midoriya said when he was back on his feet. Kirishima flashed him a bright, toothy grin before turning back to Bakugo. He tried to cross his arms, forgetting one of his wrists was attached to another person. He settled with a hand on his hip. Bakugo was quickly losing balance and his cool. Well, his remaining cool. He was struggling against his bonds, Mineta roosted on his other arm to keep him from using his quirk. Bakugo was tilting to his side, not able to steady himself with his arms, them being occupied by Mineta and Mineta. Bakugo was continuously cursing incoherently.
"If we let him go he's going to attack us, isn't he?" Kirishima said. Bakugo immediately lifted his head from scowling at Mineta to scowling at Kirishima.
"What makes you think that?" Bakugo growled.
"Our general knowledge of how you act when in the fifty-mile vicinity of Midoriya or someone that you don't like," Todoroki answered calmly. Bakugo didn't say anything for a moment, opening and closing his mouth a few times before finally grumbling, "Whatever half-n-half bastard."
"I have a name-"
"Release me!" Bakugo snapped. Todoroki looked back to Midoriya.
"What do you think we should do?"
Midoriya seemed to be lost in thought for a while. Ochaco could see the wheels spinning in his brain through his emerald green eyes. His… sparkling emerald green eyes. Ochaco quickly turned her head away from him, which, unfortunately, did not go unnoticed. She caught a confused look from both Todoroki and Kirishima. Bakugo muttered something while glaring in her direction.
"What was that?" she asked, a bit more forcefully than she had intended.
"None of your damn business pink-cheeks," Bakugo retorted.
"That's kind of rude, Ochaco frowned. Bakugo rolled his eyes. Midoriya came to his conclusion then.
"I think we should leave him," he said pointedly. Kirishima raised his eyebrows. Todoroki gave him an approving nod.
"Really dude?" Kirishima gaped. Midoriya nodded before adding, "Todoroki, can you encase them more?"
Todoroki seemed a bit surprised at this part.
"I mean, I could but-"
"Do that," Midoriya cut him off. Ochaco flicked her eyes back onto the green haired boy as he told her that they should get going. He said later to the other two and started off. Ochaco watched Todoroki accommodate Midoriya's request. Bakugo would probably say screw it and use his quirk, even if it damaged Mineta's minuscule frame. As soon as they were far enough away from the other two teams, Midoriya turned to Ochaco with a smile. Ochaco didn't return it.
"I didn't think that you would be one to do that," she said. Midoriya's smile lessened and he glanced away, suddenly interested in the plant life beside them.
"Well… he said something mean about you," he mumbled.
"What? What did he say?" Ochaco questioned. How did he even hear Bakugo if Ochaco couldn't? They were right next to each other.
"Oh! It's nothing," Midoriya rubbed his neck nervously with the hand not attached to Ochaco.
"Come on, tell me!" she pressed, then added, "please?"
Midoriya sighed.
"He called you a tsundere,"
And Ochaco burst out laughing.
