"Hey! Pretty Boy, wait up a minute!" Sakura calls out loudly, running to catch up with Shōto. The taller boy stops and turns with a slightly scrunched expression at the nickname.

"Wakahisa. What do you want?" Shōto asks bluntly. Sakura brushes one of her braids over her shoulder and grins up at him.

"Eat lunch with me?" She asks, though it was more of a statement. She only asked as a formality.

"No."

Sakura smiles and keeps in step with the tall teenager. "Too late. Aizawa-Sensei's test's pretty hard, yeah? How'd you think you did?"

"Pretty sure I bombed it. I'm fuckin' shitty at math," Sakura continues to talk despite Shōto's silence. They walk into the cafeteria.

"Y'know, you remind of a cold-hearted bitch I know." Sakura gets in the lunch line behind Shōto. "You ain't a bitch or anythin' like that, but your RBF is so similar t'hers. Pro'ly better actually."

"...what is RBF?" Shōto asks with a blank glance back at the pink haired teenager. Sakura stares up at him weirdly before grabbing the usual lunch she gets.

"Resting bitch face. You look like you're fuckin' pissed when relaxed. Some say I've it too, but most jus' say I'ma bitch," Sakura explains with a small shrug. She pays for her meal after Shōto does and tilts her head up to give him a grin.

"Hey Tetsu-kun, fuck you!" Sakura turns to shout at her brother before focusing back on her classmate. Tetsutetsu flips her off without tearing his attention away from the conversation he was having with Itsuka and a few of his other classmates.

"Anyways, you doin' okay? The media's being fuckin' vultures, staking out your home 'cause of that bullshit your father did," She asks as they sit down. Shōto stares at her from across the table for a moment before slowly nodding his head. His eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

"I'm used to it." Sakura hums and starts to eat quickly.

"Fuckin' asshole, ya know," She states with a small snort. "Dunno how you can live with 'im."

"He's my father... I have to live with him," Shōto states bluntly. Sakura chokes on her food when she tries not to laugh.

"What?"

Sakura manages to swallow what she was chewing and quickly takes a drink of water. "You–nothin'. You excited for the Sports Festival?"

"I'm going to win." The pink haired teenager raises an eyebrow at Shōto before scoffing loudly.

"Arrogance runs in the family I see," Sakura says with an eye roll. Shōto glares at her and frowns slightly.

"I'm not arrogant."

"Yes you are. If you think your gonna win only usin' half of your Quirk, you gotta 'nother thing coming for ya," Sakura states while pointing her fork at the bi-color haired teenager.

"I might just hafta beat that arrogance outta you during the festival." Sakura smirks confidently and points her fork towards Katsuki eating with Eijirō a little ways away. "You an' Bakugō-kun need someone t' fuckin' vibe check ya."

"...vibe check?" Shōto asks in confusion. Sakura blinks in surprise before leaning closer.

"You don't know what a vibe check is?! What the fuck you do on that expensive ass phone of yours?" She exclaims incredulously.

Shōto blinks once before taking out his phone to stare at it. "I text and call people. What else would I use it for?"

"By Tyche," Sakura breathes out in complete shock. Shōto rapidly blinks when he suddenly feels nothing in his hand and looks up to see the pink haired teenager going through his phone.

"Give that back–"

By Tyche, Pretty Boy's phone is completely jacked with security bullshit.

"You're trashy father monitor your phone?" Sakura asks for clarification. Shōto tilts his head slightly in confusion.

"Of course. All parents do that," He states as if it was normal. Sakura stares at him for a long moment before glaring down at the phone.

"What're you doing after school?"

"Go home and wait for my father to get home so he could start training me," Shōto answers immediately. Sakura stares at him for even longer before slowly handing back his phone.

"How long you hafta wait?" She asks before finishing off her lunch. Shōto gives a shrug and slowly goes back to eating as well.

"Usually three hours. Sometimes longer." Sakura frowns in thought, scratching her scar.

Would he put up a fight if I kidnap him for the evening?

She nods to herself and gives Shōto a grin. "Wait for me after school. I need t'talk with you more."

"...okay," Shōto eventually says, a bit confused. Sakura grins even brighter before standing up. She grabs her empty tray and starts walking away.

"Can't wait t'beat your ass in the festival by the way." Sakura gives him a wave over her shoulder, a teasing glint in her eye. "Hope you can last more than three minutes 'gainst me. I'm in need of a good challenge."


"Hey, Tetsu-kun. I'ma need help with kidnapping Pretty Boy," Sakura states as she walks over to Tetsutetsu. He stops his conversation with Itsuka and Neito to give his partner a raised eyebrow.

"I am not being your scapegoat again," Tetsutetsu says immediately. Sakura rolls her eyes with a grin and puts her hands on her hips.

"I need to take him phone shopping an' do some other shit. Call in for work?" Sakura explains with a shrug. Tetsutetsu stares at her for a few moments before sighing.

"Two call ins and I'll do your shift with mine." The silver haired teenager crosses his arms.

Sakura grins before turning around. "Thanks! Nice seeing you Kendō-san! I guess you as well, Monoma-kun."

She smiles brightly when she sees Shōto start to walk down the stairs. Sakura whistles loudly and gives him a wave when his head moves up.

"Yo, Pretty Boy!" Sakura jogs to catch up with him. "You ready for our shopping trip?"

"I did not agree to shopping," Shōto states bluntly, making the pink haired girl grin. She grabs his arm in a tight grip and starts rushing down the stairs.

"I know! Which is why I'm kidnapping ya! Don't worry, you'll be home before your trashy father is there."

"Hold on. I didn't–"

Tetsutetsu blinks in slight surprise as the two quickly rush out of his earshot. Itsuka stares after them with furrowed eyebrows before turning to face Tetsutetsu.

"Should we be worried?" She asks, making the silver haired teenager snort.

"No matter what Sakura is involved in, we should always be worried," He starts with a sigh. "As long as she doesn't get on the news again, I'll let Todoroki-san deal with her chaotic ass alone."

"Your 1-A trash sister was on the news?" Neito asks with a raised eyebrow. Tetsutetsu shrugs and stuffs his hands into his pockets.

"Wrong place, wrong time lead to her being a suspected terrorist. It all got cleared up in a few weeks. Nothing serious." Itsuka and Neito glance at each other with slightly pale expressions.

"I'm pretty sure being a wrongly suspected terrorist is more than 'nothing serious'" The orange haired teenager states slowly.

Tetsutetsu chuckles and shakes his head. "With Sakura, being a wrongly suspected terrorist is pretty tame. Remind me to tell you about the arson incident later."

"Chaotic doesn't even begin to describe Wakahisa-san." Itsuka sweatdrops, glancing at the blonde next to her.


Hey! Hope you all like the new chapter so far! I'd like to apologize for the sporadic/non-existent updates for all of my books. I'm going through a motivation block (don't know what it is or what to call it) and it's impeding on my writing AND my schoolwork.

I still hope you all are enjoying the story so far! And I am trying my best to push through whatever it is I'm dealing with. Bye!
