[Beginning of Summer Holiday]

Due to the high temperature, Yuki stayed in her room with her AC on. She was just lazing around on bed, enjoying the cold air. Her phone beeped, a message was received. Yuki reached out to her phone on the night stand and turned it on.

［U. Ochaco］

Yuki! You're going to come with us to the pool, right?

The message displayed on the screen made Yuki sigh. She ignored it, and set it aside. Then it beeped again. Yuki took a look.

［U. Ochaco］

Don't tell me you're not. Come have fun with us, Yuki!

And it beeped again.

［U. Ochaco］

We barely had any fun together! Come on~

Uraraka kept spamming Yuki like there was no tomorrow. Finally she gave in, replying she'll be there shortly, but not going to swim. When asked why, Yuki simply replied that she can't risk having her skin melting. Uraraka sent her a pout emoji, and Yuki ignores it. She layed on the bed for a few moments.

"Fucking... agh," Yuki rubbed her head. She sighed. "I guess it wouldn't hurt," and so she stood from her bed and changed her cloth; a sleveless, galaxy-patterned hoodie with two breast pockets, dark grey short jeans, then tied her hair up. She took all the things she needs and left her room after turning off her AC. She went to the entrance, slipped into her dark-purple sneakers, and sighed. "Well," she said, standing up.

"Time to go."

When Yuki entered the pool area, the whole class was already there. "Huh," Yuki raised an eyebrow, "I thought only the girls was coming?" She said mostly to herself, not expecting Midoriya to reply. "Kaminari and Mineta invited me for an endurance training. So I texted the others," Midoriya explained with a smile.

'I'm going to bet that those two aren't here for training,' Yuki sighed, walking over to the shade. She watched the girls playing in the pool, and the boys training. Just... watching. Caught in the heat haze as her mind wanders anywhere it could go. Mostly, about the training camp. Unconciously, she frowns.

'I have a bad feeling about it...' Her frown deepens into a scowl. "About what?" She heard Todoroki. Raising her head she saw Todoroki looking down at her, curious. "Nothing. What is it?" Yuki replied, cursing herself for mumbling. Todoroki shrugged. He took a seat beside her.

"I was going to ask why you're not joining the others," Todoroki said. Yuki hummed. "It's my skin," Yuki informed, raising her hand to stare at it. "It doesn't melt easily, but I rather not have it melt on me. The real skin on the bottom is the real problem; it's very sensitive and easily burns. That's why I never really swim outdoors, or stay outside too long, really," as she explained Yuki lifted both of her legs and hugged her knees, eyes gazing at the rest of the girls who are swimming. "I really envy people who can play out in the sunlight," she mumbled, mostly to herself.

Todoroki frowns. He hadn't expected her to actually be jealous of others, especially because she can't really feel anything. Though that doesn't close the chance, for him, it is still quite unexpected.

"Staying out from the sun, freak?!" Bakugou suddenly roared, stomping over to the two with a grin. Yuki raised her head, Todoroki raised an eyebrow. "Using the same, lame excuse to hide that you can't swim?!" Bakugou's grin widens if possible, waiting Yuki's reaction.

The whole class stopped their activity, to look at the white-head. "What? Yuki really can't swim?" Uraraka called out. Still fixing her gaze the explosive boy, Yuki replied, "yeah. I can't swim," blankly. Bakugou's grin disappeared, and instead replaced with a confused glare. "Too bad, Katsuki. You need to find something worse if you want to humiliate me," Yuki said calmly.

Bakugou clicked his tongue. Then he stomped away from the two with Kirishima following behind. Yuki sighed. "Must be tough, having him as a childhood friend," Todoroki commented. Yuki shrugged silently.

Todoroki glances at her at the corner of his eye. He looks around the pool, than back to Yuki. He gulps nervously. "Shimokaze," he called a bit nervously, after his voice returned to him. Yuki turned her gaze to him. "Yes?" Her mismatched eyes stare straight into his, the eye that he used to have. He'd say it matches her so well, but at the current place he's at he'd rather not.

"I've been thinking..." he said after a moment of silent. Yuki waited expectantly. However was cut short when Iida suddenly announced they will be having a race. Todoroki's shoulders slumped. Yuki nudged his side, "you can tell me later," she said reassuringly. Todoroki nodded without making eye contact. He stood up, and left.

Once again Yuki was left alone, watching the race in the shade. It's not even watching anymore. It's just staring off to space. But after regaining her senses, Yuki checked the time and left silently.

"Then, Midoriya, Todoroki, and Bakugou will race as the finale! Is that alright?" Iida asked. Todoroki glances behind him, to where Yuki is sitting. Was sitting, as mentioned she had left, and the seat is now empty. Todoroki frowns.

"Do you hear me, you Half and Half Bastard?!" Bakugou's shout snaps him back to reality. Todoroki gave a blank glance, "I didn't," he said to him. Bakugou growled, his fingers twitching as he is ready to blow Todoroki to bits. Midoriya stepped in between them and calms Bakugou down, urging him to solve the fight with the race.

And so, the three finalist took their position. They took a stance, eyes focused on the end of the pool. The whistle was blown, they jumped and activates their Quirk only to splash into the water. "They can't activate their Quirk?" Sero exclaimed.

"It's 5 P.M," Aizawa said as he walked over to the group, eyes red and hair standing stiff. Beside him is Yuki, standing still with both of her hands behind her. The boys protested, but Aizawa quickly silenced them with his glare. Disappointed, all of them went home.

It's late at night. Yuki's room is dark, but she hasn't slept a wink even though Blizzard, her cat, curled up beside her and has fallen asleep. Her father has yet to come home, even though she made dinner.

Yuki glances at her phone on the night stand. She wondered what Todoroki wanted to ask her earlier that evening. While it does peaked her curiousity, it wasn't at the top of her mind, until a thought appeared in her head;

'Do I love Todoroki Shouto?'
