Mina was a lot of things to a lot of people. A best friend, a troublesome student, a love-crazed menace, a party aficionado, but the one thing she was not, was a backstabber. She would never go behind a friend's back and expose their information for her own gain, nor would she steal information about them for the sake of knowledge. She would accept what she was told no matter how weird it sounded to her because that was what she thought was the right thing to do. "So what do about this?" She thought to herself as she made her way to class examining the notebook in her hands.

The notebook itself was rather plain, which in hindsight fits the person it belongs to perfectly. A little ragged and torn up, probably from constant use and from being thrown around so much. Its yellow lines faded just a bit, and you can see the "Campos" words losing its coloring, however on the cover in sharpie the words "Hero analysis for the future" was painted clearly, as if taunting her with information. On the bottom left corner the words ``Izuku Midoriya" clear as day reminding her who the book belongs to which is why the content is even juicier.

It's no secret to her or anyone in class 1A, that Midoriya has a liking for all things heroes. Well, more so an obsession, in her mind it's kinda weird but kinda charming in a weird nerdy way. It's kinda like her breakdancing, she would watch videos on top of videos trying to mimic the moves and the rhythm, so much so that she copied the style of dancing into her fighting style, so who was she to knock someone else for their hobby. Midoriya has made it clear before that there's nothing in the notebook besides notes, he jumbled down from class observations. He even tried to get people to take a look at the sports festival in ways to improve, no one took him up on the offer, but he seemed to be willing to let people see what's inside of it. Which makes his recent behavior all the more strange to her, he's been jumpier when the object is brought up, more secretive, he sweats a little more, his eyes dart a bit more frantically. He's hiding something, which makes her even more curious about the contents inside.

"Boo!" A voice shouts causing the Pink haired girl to jump in shock and clutch the notebook closer to her chest. She looks around and sees nothing but a set of floating clothes.

"Hagakure?" She questions

"Yeah you know it!You gotta pay attention more man."

"Yeah, I know, What's up girl?"

"Nothing much, I got a lecture from Jirou and Ojiro last night. Apparently you can't pretend to the ghost of Sero's great-great-grandmother so you can have him make you dinner every night." She fumes in irritation with what only Mina can assume would be a scowl on her face. "What's the point of being invisible if I can't use it to my personal gain."

"I one hundred percent agree with you, Iida gave me a lecture because I couldn't sleep and made myself hot chocolate last night. Like we live by ourselves I think I can do what I want." She vents glancing over to the girl to make sure she is listening. "Something about heroes needs a full eight hours of sleep if they wish to be productive in their day to day classes."

"Did he do the arm chopping thing."

"Oh you know he did the arm chopping thing."

"Damn, sounds like a long morning, anyway what's got you so serious this morning. I called out to you like four times before I decided to scare you, don't think I ever saw you think this hard. Actually I don't think I ever saw you think." She playfully jokes only for Ashido to flick her directly on the nose in retort.

Mina flashes the notebook to Hagakure with an outward sigh. "On my way out the door this morning, I saw that Midoriya left his notebook on the table. He's been acting kinda strange lately when it comes to it so I've been curious about what I should do with it. I know it would be wrong to read it, but I really wanna know what's inside." She explains before looking at the book again and before tucking it under her underarm. "What would you do."

"Hm, I don't know really. It's not like you and Midoriya are close, so you can't just come out and ask him I guess. But on the other hand if you just straight up returned it nobody would believe you didn't read it. So you're kinda at a lose/lose right?"

"Exactly, so should I just read like everyone thinks I already did? Or should I just do the right thing despite what the others will think? I feel like what's ever in here is bothering Midoriya and I can help, but is it my place to help?" She rambles causing the invisible girl to laugh at her friend predicament

"Well, you're sounding like Midoriya right now with all the rambling that's for sure." She jokes causing Mina to roll her eyes in playful annoyance "But, I don't know, I feel like you're kinda overthinking this a lot. We are heroes, in some ways, so what do you think is the right thing to do and just do it. Personally I would just read and then stick it back to where I found it, but what do I know."

She takes a deep sigh "I'm just gonna return it, damn, I really wanna know what's inside of it." She slouches over in an overdramatic sign of exasperation which causes Toru to laugh some more at her friend. The two in the midst of their conversation do not notice the two students in front of them rushing to class and who happen to crash directly into them. Sending the four students crashing to the floor with papers and supplies flying everywhere around them.

"Sorry!" A brown haired girl shouts rubbing the back of her head "We were in a rush and didn't see you there." She explains quickly picking up her supplies as her friend proceeds to stand up bowing multiple times in a quick session.

"It was a mistake."

"Don't sweat it! Trust me if anyone knows what it feels like to be in a rush to class it's me." Mina reassures causing the two students that crashed into them to sigh a breath of relief. The four students quickly and frantically attempt to pick everything up and in a rush to get back on track for class. However in her haste Mina notices something that catches her eye. Directly next to her hand, is a very detailed sketch of none other than her close friend, Kaminari."Huh?"

On the further inspection the sketch was really freakin good, it was almost as if she was looking at the electric idiot in person. On the top of the page the words ``The Stun Gun Hero:Denki Kaminari/ ChargeBolt '' was capitalized and darkened in an attempt to make it stand out next to the sketch. On the other page there was a list of things she can only explain as stats for Kaminari, such as his speed being listed as three out of five, his cooperation being listed a five out five and his intelligence being ranked twenty out twenty. That last one got her to laugh a bit. Looking back at the sketch, Written in what she can assume was an attempt to italicize said "Maximum voltage 1,300,000 volts" then next to it was a line that pointed back to the other page that noted he can go over this but is not advised if he wishes to be useful in battle. Under the rankings it listed some of Kaminari's closest relationships, such as Sero,Mineta,Jirou and of course Mina herself. She skimmed the Sero part and skipped the Mineta part entirely, she read over the Jirou part and smiled at the implied implication of a relationship there. "Knew I wasn't the only one who thought that."

"Thought what?" Toru asked behind the pink girl's shoulders.

"That Kami and Jirou would be a cute couple." She says picking up the notebook and showing her invisible friend "Nice notes you got here, but don't you think it's creepy to have notes on someone you don't know?"

"Not to be rude, but that's not mine." One of the two girls,this one with pink hair, states pointing at the notebook. "It seems to belong to an, Izuku Midoriya?" She states in a questionable tone but at the sound of the boy's name, it makes Mina fumble the notebook.

"Shit."

"Well, there's that." Toru playfully jests only to hear a frustrated groan in her direction. Mina rubs her head in frustration and Toru puts a confronting hand on her back and begins to rub it. Next to them, the girls that ran into them look at the situation and then look at the notebook at the ground. The brown hair girl looks at it and decides to pick it up, she flicks through it and gives them a confused look.

"What's wrong, these are some really good drawings." She says showing the two heroes the notebook, which shows a picture of a black-haired girl who Mina lives with. "It's a really good drawing and you seem to care about her a lot." She notes before handing Mina the notebook.

"We gotta go Silica, we were running late." The pink-haired freckled girl reminds her friend causing her to shake her head frantically.

"Your right Liz, sorry about this, gotta go." She voices out before bowing and making a dash along with her friend in the opposite direction. "Hopefully, you feel better." She yells out to them before they are out of sight of the class 1-A heroes.

"Weird. Anyway, what are you gonna do now Mina?" Toru questions, only to get no response "Mina?"

"Toru, we hit the jackpot."

"Damn nerd."

"Man you alright Bakubro, you've been really angry lately. Like Aizawa after Kaminari shut down the school power angry." Kirishima jokes with a goofy smile. A few steps in front of him is a pissed Bakugou hunched over, gripping the handles of backpack angrily

"For the last time,yes!" The ashy blonde shouts causing some glares from a group of tired students on their way to class. "I just have something on my mind, shitty hair." He remarks before continuing his angry stomping to class.

It's quiet for a bit, but Kirishima quickens his pace till he's side by side with his friend."It has something to do with Midoriya right?" He asks which does nothing but causes a low annoyed growl to escape from Bakugou's mouth

"What makes you think I care about that damn nerd."

"I mean based on your reaction, I think I'm pretty close. Besides you two are like peanut butter and hot sauce. Good separately but awful together." He points out only for Bakugou to stop in his tracks and look at him with a look of disgust and confusion

"Peanut butter and Hot sauce?"

"Yeah, what about it?"

"You're an idiot shitty hair." Bakugou admits a bit of a smile escaping the corners of his mouth. "Let's go, I don't wanna be late."He explains as Kirishima begins to follow him

The two make their way to the classroom, Kirishima making conversation, Bakugou throwing in a quick line or two. The usual shtick, the two always walk to class together, just something they started doing one day, not that Bakugou cares. Kirishima isn't too much of an annoyance to him, not like the others, probably why he lets him tag along so much. Honestly he doesn't really understand why he lets him or the other pair of extras tag along him so much. Annoyances, is the best word to describe his opinion of them, racoon eyes, lighting dolt, tape arms, earphones, Kirishima. A bunch of no good extras, which only confuses him more that he can't help but let out a small smile when he is greeted by them.

"Yo Bakugou, Kirishima! What's up guys!" The two are loudly greeted by the class's resident Idiot, Kaminari. Not too far behind him is Sero, who much like Kaminari has a shit eating grin on him.

"Nothing much, Bakugou just being his same grumpy self." Kirishima jokes with a small smile, which only causes Bakugou to get annoyed and shoot some sparks from the palm of his right hand.

"I'm not grumpy!"

"Jesus man, it's eight in the morning, what's there to be angry about." Sero complains only to be met with a glare from Bakugou. "At Least you got to sleep, I had to deal with Toru all night."

Kaminari snickers to the left of him. "I mean that's your fault, of course the only invisible person in the class would make you do things for her." He jokes before getting a quick smack to the back of the head from Sero

"You're not the one to laugh,your acting like you weren't the one helping me in the kitchen last night. If your 5'1 goddess didn't come in you wouldn't have stopped." He accuses causing Kaminari to go going into a stuttering fit.

It's around this point the explosive teen starts to tone them out. His eyes wandering around the room, landing on two faces in particular. One the vice president of class 1-A, Ponytail, or as Bakugou has learned recently, Momo Yaororuz. Names were something he didn't really care about, he knew all of their names, being in a class with these idiots for nearly a year would do that. He just didn't care to use them, him calling you by your name is something you would have to earn in his book. Or catch his attention enough for him to want to remember you by name. So far the only one who has done so is Uraraka, and even then it more out of respect then accutally caring to remember her name. No, Yaoyorozu has been more aggressive towards him lately, it's subtle but apparent. More glares have been thrown his way, more under the radar insults, more whispers from the pony tail girl. More reason to piss him off, he's not sure what's he done to her in particular but he knows who is to blame for it.

"Yo Bakugou, you gonna just keep standing there or what man?" Kaminari asks and the crimson eye teen just scoffs before following the trio to Kirishima's desk to continue the conversation, whatever it may be about.

"Yeah,Iida gave me and Mina a lecture this morning. It was such a pain. I was gonna do the dishes but i got sleepy and forgot about it." Kirishima recounts before sighing into his chair

"Yeah I bet you did."Sero comments only to get elbowed extremely hard by Kaminari in the chest.

"What was that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing." Kaminari quickly shuts down. "Actually speaking of Mina, check her out."

The four teens look towards the acid dancer to see a sight that is not seen very often. Mina is reading. Not only that but she seems to be very invested and interested in what she is reading, so much so that she can't even notice the four of them looking at her. However the book she's reading looks really familiar to Bakugou, really familiar now that he thinks about it.

"Never thought i see the day where Mina is willingly reading in class." Sero comments

And just like that it's gone. He mumbles under his breath some swears before looking around the room. He sees Kirishima is still locked onto Mina, not that he cares about that, the birdbrain is seeming to be having a conversation with tentacles and sugar boy. Extras,he can't help but think looking at the three. But his eyes latch onto one person particular, the one person who has been on his mind constantly for the whole week. Deku. The green haired boy who has followed him around his whole life,the boy who has always been beneath him, the boy he was gonna crush on his path to be number one hero. The boy who always called him Kacchan. He hated the stupid name, it was childish, it was stupid, it was annoying that's why he told him to stop calling him that. But he never thought that he would, and now that he has, why is it bothering him so much, maybe because he knows it has something to do with ponytail. Whenever he slips up and calls him Kacchan,she's right there watching him, giving him disappointed eyes, and he quickly fixes it and calls him Bakugou. What does she know, and why is it enough to make the nerd crumble like that, do the two of them know it bothers him. Do they sit back and mock him? Did they tell all the others and they all sit back and laugh at him?What is that stupid nerd hiding, what did that stupid Deku do.

"BAKUGOU!" Kirishima shouts, causing the boy to snap out of his thoughts. He notices his back feels a little lighter and sees his backpack is on the ground, the straps burned to a crisp and smoking as the object lays on the ground. "Man what's up with you?"

"Like I said I'm fine!" He shouts before picking up his backpack by what's remaining of the strap and throwing it towards his desk.

Bakugou begins to march over to his desk but a rough hand grabs him on the shoulder and turns him around. "Aye man we're just worried about you, last time something like this happened you ended up on probation." Kirishima points out and behind him, he sees Kaminari and Sero nod frantically "We're your friends you can talk to us."

Suddenly you hear someone loudly clear their throat loudly gaining the attention of the class"You should probably listen to their advice Bakugou, it's a little too early for your usual antics. Class starts soon, I think you should listen to your friends." Yaoyorozu says her glare icy cold as she looks at the explosive teen in the eyes

"YOU GOT A PROBLEM PONYTAIL!"

"I have no such thing Bakugou." She says bluntly before sitting down and going back to her book. Only causing Bakugou to get more frustrated, causing Kirishima to tighten his grip on his shoulder

"Dude it's alright, we're here for y-"

"Don't touch me shitty hair!"He shouts, cutting off Kirishima and shoving his hand off his shoulder. "I'm fine, leave me alone." He remarks with a low aggressive tone, before marching over to his desk and taking a set.

"O-oh, alright, if you say so." The boy states before taking a seat as well as the class just stares at the two in silence till the class starts.

Most of the eyes are on Kirishima, but three sets of eyes are on Bakugou. Momo, Izuku, and surprisingly of all , Uraraka, those eyes are the eyes he turns around and glares at, expecting a sarcastic remark or an insult. However, she only mouths three words to him. "You fucked up." Before turning her attention back to her conversation with Iida, and leaving Bakugou with his thoughts as Aizawa walks through the door.

"Gotta give it to him, the boy is detailed." Ashido thinks to herself as she flicks through the notebook pages. "A little too detailed but detailed nonetheless." She continues out loud this time gaining the attention of her two lunchmates, Toru and Aoyama. Deciding to distance herself from her usual group due to the unneeded tension between Bakugou and Kirishima.

"You're still reading that thing, I thought you were gonna give it back to Midoriya." Toru comments and the acid girl waves her off in a playful manner.

"I'm gonna give it to him after lunch, I just wanted to read some more entries. Midori is actually pretty smart, I didn't even notice all these things about you guys and I talk to you guys every day." She gushes making her two lunchmates looking back at each other.

"Midori?" The pair asks only to get ignored by the excited girl

"Like Aoyama according to Midori your technique is pretty solid three out of five, which is B. He noted how you really weren't able to control your quirk but now is able to bounce it off walls and off mirrors and how your cooperativeness has improved. Like guys why didn't you tell me you two had a super awesome team move. I wanna see!" she shouts before making a pouty face very similar to ones that a five-year-old would make after being scolded

"How does Midoriya know we have a team move? We haven't even shown anyone that?"

"En effet, We have not shown anyone that super move of ours." The Dazzling hero boasted but not really getting the attention of the two girls.

"That's the thing Toru, he just kinda knows, it's weird. Not to mention all the comments are fun to read. For Toru, he said, "for someone with such a loud personality, she can easily be forgotten. Must be tough not being able to be seen." He basically called you a side character Toru." The girl jokes causing the floating fork in the hand of Toru to go up and down. A motion she can't see but can only make Mina assume that Toru is upset. Which only makes it more fun for her.

"I try so hard to stand out! Ugh, who does he think he is? The plainest boy in the school thinks he can call me a side character." The invisible girl huffs

Mina smiles before flicking the pages some more and landing on an interesting drawing, or should she two full facial drawings. No words on them, just two pictures, one a frontal view and one a side view, both probably the best drawings she's seen so far. She flips the pages just to see another two drawings just like the first two, no words just the drawings. She does it again, another set of pages just like those two, however when she flips it again, she gets another page but this time with words. She decides to stop there and go back to the drawings. Seven pages, seven pages of nothing but drawings of one person, Ochaco Uraraka.

The sketches weren't anything too crazy but the detail was simply amazing to Ashido. For example, the first sketch was a picture of Uraraka with a smile, her pinky up to lips as if asking for a pinky promise. However, you can see he put extreme detail into the hair, you can count every strain, or at least it seemed that way to her. He even took time to color it, everything colored smoothly and with shadowing, you can even see how he half-colored in her nails since they haven't been done for a while. Around her cheeks were a mix of pink and a yellowish orange, as if this event took place in the afternoon right before the sunset.

Astonished by the drawing she takes a glance to the other page and takes a look at the other portrait. This one a side view of Uraraka, it's very obvious that she wasn't paying attention. It seems as if she was mid conversation based on the drawing. Her features were much more relaxed, her hair tucked behind her ear, some of her strains seemed stuck to her forehead. Her mouth was slightly gaped as if she was getting ready to respond, you could see a strand of her sports bra through her baggy shirt. Something that surprised Mina, the idea of Midoriya even noticing that was a bit funny to her. As she flipped through the pages the drawings all had this level of detail, that couldn't help but bring a smile to anyone's face.

"Lover boy." She sighed out in amusement as she flipped back to the page that had the words written on it curious to see what he said about her. "The Zero Gravity Hero: Ochaco Uraraka/Uravity'' oddly enough and maybe even surprisingly enough nothing for Ochaco was less than four out of five. A four in intelligence power and speed, with a five out of five in technique, Mina couldn't help but feel a little bit of favoritism towards the gravity girl. She looked at some of the statements that are scattered around on the pages, "Uraraka is a deadly hand to hand fighter, don't slip up around her. Earned respect from Kacchan.", "Surprisingly fast on her feet with scary good reflexes,will capitalize on your mistakes.", "Don't let her looks fool you, she can be really scary when she wants to be." Now that's something that catches her attention, she looks up from the notebook and scans the lunchroom for her target. She spots the broccoli child laughing at some joke that Todoroki said,or more so how he said it knowing the other student. She looks back at the notebook and continues to scan through them, "Very funny, especially her impression of Kacchan and Iida.", "Her eyes are easy to stare at, so is her cheeks, and her face in general,she's really pretty. Not in a weird way though.", "Can cook very well! Despite not using the best materials." Now that was just a lie. She means no disrespect to Ochaco but she's far from the best cook in the house, her expertise is home cooked ramen noodles.

"I'll be back guys." Ashido shouts to Aoyama and Toru who both look up from their meals with interest.

"Where to?" Toru questions and Mina's winks with a grin

"I gotta go help out a friend." The chaotic ball of pink energy quips in a sing-song voice. She skips across the cafeteria ignoring the looks from the other students from other tables before taking a seat directly in front of the person she was looking for. "Midoriya!" She shouts causing said boy to jump in fear as well as those around him.

"Ashido!? Um, you do know that school's not over yet?" The future number one hero says in more in a questioning tone than that of a statement.

"Not to mention, this isn't your regular table. Kero." Tsu croaks out causing the rest of the eyes at the to look towards her. "What? It's the truth."

Mina shakes off the girl's bluntness used to it already. "Yeah, I know Tsu, I'm taking a break from them. It's a very hostile place right now. Which is why I'm over here, you guys don't mind if I borrow Midori do you?"

"Midori?" Uraraka questions, giving Mina a disapproving look, which only makes the acid girl laugh inside of her head before shaking "What do you need with Deku?"

"Yeah,it's a cute nickname don't you think?" She teases winking at the bushy haired teen causing him to gain some color to his face which makes her chuckle "But I wanna talk to him about something that it's probably best left in private."

"I hope it has something to do with those dishes you left in the sink this morning." Iida mentions in passing before putting some rice into his mouth.

Ashido clicks her tongue and forces a fake smile onto her face "As much fun as that would be class rep, I think that's something that can wait till we are back at the guild." She waves off him with her attention turning back to Midoriya. "It won't take long,no more than five I promise it's something you'll wanna hear." She implies with another wink and a wide smile.

The boy ponders it for a moment, before taking a deep breath and nodding. "Okay, whatever it is it seems to be important to you since it can't wait for us to get home." With that said he places his chopsticks together and gets up before bowing to his friends. "I'll be back, no longer than 5 minutes."

"That's right no longer than five minutes." Mina repeats as she jumps over the table and forcefully drags Izuku through the cafeteria, gaining the attention of most of the other students. Not that she cared but the boy pleading for her to slow down definitely didn't drags him way out of the cafeteria and up the stairwell, stopping right outside of the doors leading to the classrooms to the general studies. "Alright I think this is far enough, nobody should be here unless they're skipping."

"S-so what do you wanna talk about?" Midoriya asks, the nervous stutter in his voice ever that nervous stutter is now paired with that of a confused look as Mina gives him a knowing look.

Mina puts a hand in her purse and slowly pulls out the object of her desires. She takes a deep sigh before slowly showing it to Midoriya. "I believe this belongs to you." She hides her face behind the notebook before continuing "You left this on the table this morning, on my way out I saw it." She slowly handed it to the boy as she continued "I wasn't gonna read it, really i wasn't, but then I bumped into someone and then it landed open and then I- "

"Then you read it?"

"Yes, I did but it's really cool!" She stumbles out quickly "Like you're a really good artist, like these are some really cool drawings, and your notes are super cool, I didn't even know of things about these guys. Like your attention to detail is really-."

"But you read it?" He asks again and Mina just nods in silence, causing Midoriya to sigh before flipping through the pages. "I was looking all over for this, and I was really hoping nobody would end up finding it and reading it."

"Look I know how it looks but -"

"But at least I got it back, so it's ok."

"Look I'll do anything-, say what now." Mina stutters out in shock. "You're not mad? I thought you didn't want any of us to read that thing."

"It's fine Ashido,I rather you find it then some random there's nothing too embarrassing in here that I wouldn't want someone to find." He explains before closing it and giving her a small grin. "So thanks for returning it, but I don't see why you had to drag me away from everybody to talk about it."

"Well the thing is there is something else i wanted to talk to you about."

Izuku tilts his head to the side in a confused manner and Ashdio hides her smile behind her hands.

"Hm what would that be?"

She closes the gap between the two tilting her head showing her smile. "You like Ochaco don't you?"

*Meanwhile*

Silence, nothing but silence, the only thing going on in the cafeteria between four . Mainly due to what happened to Bakugou and Kirishima earlier in the day. Kirishima has gone out of his way to avoid Bakugou since the first bell of the day, and vice versa, for Bakugou. Leaving Sero and Kaminari with the task to try to get the two, too quickly makeup so it doesn't escalate to an extreme point.

"So Kiri, how do you think you did on Mic's test?" Sero asks trying to break said silence

Kirishima looks up from the sound of his name only to shrug. "It was fine."

"Just fine? Not manly?" Sero asked and the spiky haired boy just shrug

"Eh I suppose so."

Sero sighs before looking over to Kaminari and nodding towards Bakugou. The Electric boy gives him a thumbs up before turning towards the ashy blonde. "So Bakugou what was up with you and Yaororozu?" He bluntly asks causing a Sero to facepalm

The ashy blonde gives the blonde a death glare "Don't know,don't ask." He grumbles out in annoyance

"That's not very mainly, don't you think?" Kirishima mumbled out catching the attention of the group

"What was that?"

Seeing where this is going, Sero quickly jumps in "What he's trying to say is that he's just wondering man. We're your friends, you can talk to us."

Katsuki rolls his eyes "Is that why raccoon eyes ran off with Deku a couple of minutes ago." He modestly accused "Shouldn't she be here too?"

"So you do see us as friends?" Kirishima cuts in

"I'm saying that if she cared she wouldn't be ditching us to play with that damn nerd."He explained before getting up from his chair. "Nothing is wrong with me, and if i wanted to tell you extras,you all should be here."

Sero and Kaminari look at each other before letting out a sigh. Kirishima decides to remain silent and Bakugou walks away from the table. "Where are you going?" Kaminari asks and the boy waves him off

"I'm still thirsty, I'm going to get a drink."

Waving off his "friends" Bakugou takes his leave from the cafeteria. His eyes drift from the doors to the table to where Midoriya usually sits and seeing two empty chairs. He begins to wonder where Midoriya ran off to but decides to ignore it, he has other things to worry about. Still moving towards the doors, his eyes drift to the other side of the cafeteria and lock eyes for a fraction of a second with Yaoyorozu.

"Damn ponytail keeping an eye on me huh" He thinks to himself before growling under his breath and forcefully sticking his hands into his marches past the remaining tables with anyone in his path very wisely moving out of the he is marching down the hall, his thoughts start to take over again.

"As if i care about what that stupid nerd and raccoon eyes have going on." He thinks to himself as he stomps his way to the first vending machine he sees. "As if i care what that stupid know it all or that stupid pony tail extra thinks of me." He mumbles under his breath as he punches the machine and it proceeds to drop a can of dark coffee "And as if I care that stupid shitty hair won't talk to me." He vents out in frustration before letting out a long sigh.

"Jesus your pathetic." A feminine voice berates the teen causing him to look at the voice with malicious intent.

The culprit of the insult was standing on the other side of the vending machine being none other than Uraraka herself. A drink in her own hand with a look of disgust on her face.

"What was it you said to me awhile ago?" She taunts putting a finger to her chain "Stop hanging around that damn nerd, you're picking up his muttering problem." She imitates with a shit-eating grin before taking a long sip out of her drink

"The fuck do you want round face."

The normal bubbly girl rolls her eyes "I was coming back from the restroom when i decided i wanted another drink. Just so happens the walking embodiment of anger issues walked up to the same one as me with an attitude."

Bakugou flicks her off which gets a light chuckle from her.

"So, I don't really care, but what's got your panties in a bunch, you're more angry than usual?" She questions

"I'm fine."

"Bullshit."

There isn't another word spoken for a while. They sit in silence leaning against the wall the vending machine sits in front of for around two minutes. Staring out the window in front of them,not even glancing in the other person's direction. The tense but ever standing awkward atmosphere taking over.

Katsuki lets out a deep sigh "I don't know round face, is that what you want to hear?" He states finally breaking the silence and tossing his now empty drink into a nearby garbage.

'Nah,because I know you're lying. I don't really care about your problems Bakugou, to be quite honest with you." She confessed as she fiddled with the can in her hands. "It's not like me and you are friends, we just live together in the same place, and go to the same school. Whatever you're going through is your own problem."

The bluntness of the reply catches Bakugou off guard but not to the point where he can't reply. "Then why are you asking? Gonna run off and tell that damn nerd."

"I don't think Deku would care, he seems to be quite busy lately." She growls crushing the empty can in her hands

"Not touching that landmine" Bakugou thinks to himself

"I'm asking because for some reason you won't tell your friends, so I thought maybe you tell me since you know I don't care either way." She elaborates

Bakugou looks over at her and takes a deep breath. "I don't have friends."

"Then what is Kaminari and Sero?"

"Extras."

"And Kirishima?"

And after that another pause in the conversation. Uraraka looks over to the boy who has a look of genuine confusion and strain, as if he's looking for the right words to say but can't. Uraraka just hums in a knowing manner.

"Seems like he's more than extra to you. I think so does Kami and Sero, even Mina. You won't admit it but you care about them."

He runs a hand through his hair "If I did why would you care." He shoots back with ferocity and venom and Uraraka just shrugs in response.

"I don't, but I think you should think about how you treat your friends. Like I said, you and I aren't friends so I don't care what's going on with you all that much. But they are your friends and they do care about you. Especially Kirishima."

She walks past Bakugou and towards the trash can to dispose of the crushed can. "I'm not saying you have to explain anything to them, because you don't, tell them when you are ready. But don't spaz on them when they are just trying to help. Kaminari,Sero,Mina, especially Kirishima, are all good friends. You probably didn't mean too because you're an asshole 24/7 but you should try to make it up to Kirishima later today.

With that she takes her leave and makes her way back to the cafeteria leaving Bakugou with some words to think of for the future.

"Fucking Shitty hair."

"You like Ochaco don't you?"

Those words and the conversation that followed have been on replay in Midoriya's head all day since lunch past. He's been a bit more shaky, his palms sweaty,knees weaker, arms heavier he felt like he could pass out at any moment. Someone finding out he liked Uraraka was NOT something he expected when he woke up today. It's probably not what he ever expected mind you, but he would at least want to be prepared when he found out.

"I-I-I-" Izuku stumbles out as his face turns redder than a firetruck.

"Ah you do that's so freaking adorable." Mina screechs in excitement.

"A-ashido YOU CANNOT tell her that." Midoriya pleads, grabbing the girl by the shoulders and shaking her furiously.

The pink haired girl winks at the future number one hero. Putting a hand on his shoulder "Come find me after school, we can finish this conversation later. Lunch is almost over, so we should start to head back."

With that Mina ran down the stairs and back towards the cafeteria at breakneck speed. Leaving Izuku embarrassed and dazed at the events that took place.

"Deku!" A voice all too familiar says breaking Midoriya from his thoughts. "There you are, almost thought we lost you to your thoughts again." Uraraka jokes punching the boy lightly on the shoulder

"I'M FINE" He shouts, gaining some stares from his fellow classmates and a light giggle from the chestnut haired girl in front of him "Sorry, I mean i'm fine."

"Are you sure Midoriya? You've been acting strange all day." Iida asks with concern riddled in his voice

"Indeed, you've seem more jumpy than usual." Yaororozu points out

With a light shrug Todoroki adds "He seems the same to me."

"You've been acting weird since your talk with Mina earlier." Tsu bluntly exposes and it's at this point that Midoriya realizes that all of his friends have surrounded him. "What did the two of you talk about anyway?"

The bushy haired boy swallowed the lump in his throat as now he felt the pressure of five eyes on first instinct was to lock eyes with Uraraka which instantly makes him regret all of his life decisions.

"She found my notebook and wanted to talk about her was all." He lied through his teeth with a flushed face.

"Oh that's good you were worried about that all day it seemed." Yaomomo expressed

Midoriya let out a sigh of relief that wasn't noticed by his friends. However the answer didn't seem to satisfy all of his friends.

"What was inside of it then?" Uraraka questioned "You're always guarding it but you don't seem to be upset that she read it."

"It wasn't anything too bad, just tips on her fighting style and little things like that. Her relationships with other people, her strengths and weaknesses. Things like that."

"If that's the case, can I read my entry?"

"No."

Izuku looked at Ochaco and blinked. Ochaco stared back and blinked. The other four members of the group stared back and blinked.

"Why not?" She asked with a cherry smile

"Don't think it's a good idea." Izuku said with an equally as happy look

A slight twitch is visible on her left eye before she leans forward onto his desk. She tilts her head so her mocha eyes are directly visible to the teen. "And why not." Her voice sending an icy chill up the spine of all of those surrounding them.

Sensing this as a losing argument,Izuku looks around to the other four people that surround his desk but oddly enough they all seem to be avoiding contact with his eyes shift back into place and there's her mocha eyes staring back at him.

Ding

Izuku looks at his phone and only one thought goes through his head."Oh thank god" The boy thinks as he jumps up from his desk. "Sorry guys, I have to go meet up with Ashido!" He shouts once again, gaining the stares from his classmates.

"Aye shut it you damn nerd!" Bakugou shouts in a muffled voice from the desk in front of head between his arms in a face down position. "I'm trying to think and you're being annoying."

"Sorry about that Bakugou." Deku quickly rushes out as he gathers his time making sure to stuff his notebook into his bag "I'll see you all at the guild!" He hurriedly spits out before dashing out the classroom in a blaze.

His actions leave most of the remaining students confused but they shrug it off to the kid just being weird. What they do not see is Uraraka tightly gripping the chair Midoriya was previously sitting in and grip it to the point where it bends.

After getting a good ways away from the classroom and towards the entrance of the school. Midoriya finally starts to think of what Ashido could possibly want that he could need her help with. It's not like he plans to do anything about these feelings for Uraraka, he's far too busy trying to master his quirk and same with her, they both can't afford the distraction. So if that's not the case maybe she just wants to tease him, but he quickly shakes his head at the idea because she could've just waited till they got home.

"Midori!" The loud energetic shout from said girl breaking his concentration.

Izuku jumps in shock causing her to laugh"O-oh hey Ashido."

"Bluh." Mina mocks with her tongue out in disgust. "Really man you're one of the few people in class who calls me that. Call me Mina like everyone else."

"Can I do that?"

She gives him a toothy grin "Why not? It's just a name besides calling me Ashido makes me sound so old." Mina groans out

"A-alright M-M-M-" Izuku struggles to say before getting a hard slap to the back from her "MINA!"

"Tsu wasn't kidding, you do struggle with calling people by their first names." She teased before grabbing the boy by the wrist "Come walk and talk with me." She insists as she begins dragging him to keep up with her pace.

"So Uraraka huh? Good choice!"Izuku was at real loss of words, Mina knew one of his biggest secrets and she was just acting like it didn't matter to her. Despite her not saying anything about it besides two words,her knowing it made him a little embarrassed. "So why her, if you don't mind me asking?"

"Well I dont know,it's um really hard to put into words."

"So she leaves you speechless huh." She jokes

"Well yeah." He stutters out hiding his face in his jacket as the conversation dies out there for awhile

The two take a slow walk around the school, the pace just a tad bit slower than normal walking speed. The crunching of autumn leaves beneath their feet, and the laughs of their fellow classmates surrounding them after a long day of looks to his right and notices Mina looking up to the sky and trying to catch one of those winged seeds from the maple tree.

"You know, I think the two of you would make a good couple. You should totally try it." She points out

"No way, she wouldn't want anything to do with I wouldn't want to make it weird."

"What's weird about it?" She questions not looking in his direction as she finally catches the seed. "You like her, why not go for it."

"Uraraka is super cool and super awesome" The emerald eye teen rambles out he goes on he buries his face further into his jacket."She is also super pretty.I don't want to slow her down, she needs to focus on her schooling so she can be a great hero. So do I, we both can't really risk getting involved and throwing ourselves off our game." He explains and the girl hums at that

"Sounds like you put a thought into this."

"I have."

"So you would think someone like you would know that's kinda stupid right?" She berates her golden eyes looking in his direction with disapproval written all over them.

"How so?" He shots back in a hurry "We had a talk yesterday night, not about dating or anything, just about how we haven't really seen each other lately. And we both agreed that it's fine if we don't spend every waking moment together. And just enjoy the small moments we have together. Those moments in between."

"Is that really all you want?Will you be satisfied with that?" She ranted as the doubt in her voice was clear as day to him. "Those small moments can become no moments if you're not ready."

The bushy haired teen swallows a low gulp before shaking it off. "I won't let that happen, besides, she doesn't feel that same way anyway. It's just a hypothetical situation we're talking about anyway."

"Hm." She doubtingly hums. "Hypothetical situation huh?Hey Midori, mind if I tell you something? I know one of your secrets, it's only fair if you know one of mine right?"

"W-what?" He stops walking as Ashido stops walking a few stops ahead of him. "Um where did this come from?"

"It's actually the reason I wanted to continue our talk from earlier."She admits rubbing her the back of her head in a teasing manner. "Do me a favor and read my entry from your book."

"Huh?"

"Just do it Midoriya. I promise it'll all make sense afterwards." She explains with a charming smile "I already read it but i wanna hear you read it."

He looks at her and sees something off about in her eyes, doesn't scream Mina to him but he lets out a long off his backpack and rumbling through his belongings he takes out his notebook and flips it to the entry about Ashido.

"The Acid hero: Mina Ashido/ Pinky, quirk: Acid. Mina can create a corrosive acid liquid from her hands and skin which also allows her to be resistant to acid can melt any solid objects, even metal. She can solubility of her acid to decide how lethal it is to a can even make it slippery to skate speaking once she masters this quirk she could be a dangerous hero to villains everywhere. However her time put into doing so hasn't been balanced but the potential is still there. Throw in her aerodynamic nature and unique movements in battle at her peak she could very well be a top 5 member in class 1-A and a future top 15 hero."

"You know I remember the rankings you gave me. A five out of five technique, a four of five in speed, a three out of five in power, and I'm not gonna say what you gave me in intelligence." She growls with a puffed face

"S-sorry."

"But you know something you said there caught me off guard. You said I could be a top five member in the class, even a top 15 hero. And you know something has been on my mind since the villain attacked a week ago. Have I been slacking off to you?"

"I mean what do you-"

"You, Todoroki and Bakugou manhandled those thugs. Yeah it was at the cost of your room but still you guys destroyed them." She praises cutting him off "Me? I had to get help from freaking Kaminari and Aoyama. But Midoriya do you know my quirk is Acid?"

"Yeah! It's a really cool and powerful quirk. One of the best in the school in terms of power if you ask me. I love seeing it in action."

She laughs to herself and she begins to melt the winged seed with her acid. "Hey Midoriya, who do you think is gonna be the top ten heroes in ten years?"

"Ten years from now? That's a really long time from really put much thought into the whole top ten, just that I want to be a top hero." Midoriya confessed putting a hand to his chin in looking to the sky. The clouds blocking the sun from getting into his eyes. "

"I've put some thought into it, really all week. I know, me thinking insane right." She jokes but again but there's something that doesn't feel right about the situation that he can't shake. "Well you know what I believe, I think you, Todoroki and Bakugou will all for sure be top 10 heroes. Your three are like the three strongest people in the world's best hero school."

Midoriya looks back towards Mina and sees she's gotten closer to him but he shakes it off."Really you think I'll be a top ten hero? Thanks!"

"Then there's the big three, so that makes six out of the top ten I know for a fact my horn buddy is gonna make, so that makes seven. Then I got to thinking about the licensing exam and then I remembered about the wind dude that rejected UA, I think his name was Inasa or something like that. No way a dude so strong that he turned down UA doesn't become a top ten hero. So that makes eight, only two spots left, and as much as I hate to admit it, there's other classes in this school, and other strong quirks. So as much as I hate to admit it I think that jerk Monoma has the potential to be a top ten hero. So that leaves one spot left, over a thousand people in this country and only one spot. Midori, I want that spot." Mina for the first time that he can remember has a look of determination on her eyes. It's a look he's only seen in a few of classmates, Bakugou,Todoroki,Iida, and Uraraka to be exact. "So hypothetically speaking could I do it?"

She looks over at him with a righteous look, as if she just stomped him. Which technically she did, he was at a loss for words, She just asked him if he thinks she could be a top ten hero. Which yeah he believed but he didn't understand one thing. "I think you could do it, but why are you telling me?"

"I'm telling you, We can both help each other. You have grown so much since your first day here from breaking bones in one punch to beating supervillains that would give endeavor trouble! So that's why I want you to train me Midori!" She shouts, grabbing both of his wrist with her hands and looking at him with pleading eyes. "So you help me become a top ten hero, and I'll help you get the girl of your dreams. I know I can, you shouldn't have to wait for something you want. If you really like her, I'll help you. We can make both of our hypotheticals reality." She takes a deep breath and releases his hands, and takes a step back. "Sorry to throw all of that on you, and you're allowed to say no of course. But after reading what you said, if you believe in me, I really want you to help me." She extends a hand out for him to shake "Deal?"

Midoriya looks at the hand and then back at the girl in front of him. He thinks back to all the events that happened today. She found his notebook, read it by mistake but still read it, then found out about his crush on his friend. He could decline and he thinks nobody would blame him, but the look on her face, is a look he recognizes. A look that just needs one person to believe in them, to believe with her, he laughs to himself and extends his hand.

"Deal."

It was a long day to say the least, if you're Kirishima that had to spend all day avoiding his best bro, and it was torture. It probably wasn't the best thing to do seeing as he knew something was wrong with him, but he didn't feel right being around him when he was this upset. But he couldn't help but feel his presence was just making things weird all day. He felt Bakugou staring at him every now and then during class. It didn't help that he marched out the door the minute class ended.

"I'll just make it up to him later!" He shouts as he marches back into the door of the guild. "Hey all I'm home!" He shouts only to see Uraraka on the couch by herself.

"Hey Kirishima." She waves looking up from her phone.

He looks around and sees Bakugou in the kitchen cooking something up. They lock eyes before the more aggressive of the two turns around with a huff. The hardening hero looks around to the left of the kitchen and sees the bathroom door open along with Iida's and Todoroki's doors.

"Where is everyone?"

Looking up from her phone again, Uraraka points a finger near her bottom lip as she tries to remember. "Mina and Deku are out somewhere doing who knows what. Iida and Momo had student rep stuff they had to take care went to the support classes to get an upgrade for his hero costume. So it's you, me, and that bundle of joy over there." She quipped which leads to a middle finger from Bakugou who doesn't turn around to face her.

"Man if i knew that, I would've waited a bit more. I was gonna ask Iida for some help with my Math homework." The red haired cries in a distraught tone

Bakugou stops his cooking for a moment before growling to himself and going back to action that doesn't go unnoticed by Uraraka but she chooses to ignore it.

"Don't you usually study with Bakugou?Why not ask him?" She questions innocently which goes over his head but doesn't go over Bakugous

"That's probably not the best 's a bit tempered at the moment" Kirishima attempts to explain but only succeeds in making Bakugou more upset.

"He's always like that 're his friend, he'll be happy to help."

"You see that's the thing, I don't know if were actually -"

"SHITTY HAIR!" Bakugou explosive cuts off successfully gaining the attention of the two. "Bring your ass."

Kirishima looks over to Uraraka who just shrugs before going back to her phone. Eijiro drops his backpack on the couch and makes his way to the kitchen "Sup Baku-"

He is once again caught off guard by Bakugou shoving a plate into his chest and hands. He looks down and be damned is a 8 ounce T-Bone steak, his looks up to Bakugou who has turned his back to him and started cleaning up after himself.

"Stop being stupid." He mumbles under his breath "Kirishima." He added right in his best attempt to be quiet. But it was still loud enough for the three current members of the guild to hear. "Look, i'm not angry at you, I just need to bad or whatever."

Kirishima sits the plate down on the counter as feels the corner of his mouth shake in an upward direction as runs to grab his best friend from behind. He lifts the taller boy from the back and gives him a bear hug much to Bakugou's displeasure.

"BAKUBRO!"

"Let me down shitty hair!"He shouts letting some explosions release from his hands as he tries to blow his friend off. Not that it's very effective as Kirishima uses his quirk to just take the explosions.

"BAKUBRO!THAT WAS SO MANLY" He cries through a mountain of manly tears

"I said let me go, Kirishima!"

"YOU CALLED ME KIRISHIMA!"He shouts even louder as Bakugou still attempts to get away from his grasp.

Back in the living room, Uraraka who has been quietly observing the situation from afar just laughs to herself at the sight. She sees the boy look over to her for a split second and glares at her and she matches it with a middle finger. Bakugou with his spare hand throws a middle finger in her direction, while using the other hand to still try to get himself free from Kirishima.

"Not bad, Bakugou, not bad at all."
