"Uraraka, will you go to the ball with me?" Midoriya asked. He held out an assortment of pens, pencils and highlighters to the mirror. "No, that's dull. Uraraka, it would be the biggest honor that you allow me to escort you...that's a mouthful." Groaning, he looked at his All Might clock. 8:14 a.m. I should head downstairs. His stomach grumbled following with a laugh from Midoriya. "Breakfast sounds like a good idea. Who knows how long this fitting is going to take."

The young hero placed his utensils down and tried to pat down his hair only to have it stick right back up. He wore a green sweater with black pants and his signature red shoes. Sighing, he opened the door to see Kirishima leaning against the wall. "Hey, Kirishima. What can I do for you?" This is strange. Kirishima pushed Midoriya back into his room. "Kirishima, what are you doing?"

"Do you want to ask Uraraka to the gala?" Kirishima asked once he closed the door. Midoriya froze, muttering nonsense while becoming red as a tomato. "That's what I thought. I have a plan that will benefit both of us."

Midoriya became normal again. "Both of us?"

Kirishima rubbed the back of his head. "Look man, I was to ask Ashido, but she has her heart set to help her friends find dates first. The last one is Uraraka, and she knows she wants to go with you." The red returned to Midoriya's face. "We have a plan to get you together, and then I can ask Ashido. Will you help me, help you, Midoriya?"

Midoriya grasped his fists. "What do you have in mind?"

9:30 a.m. Class 2-A met in their homeroom classroom with the girls from 2-B and a few others, notably Camie and Mei Hatsume. The extra students stood at the side of the room except from Camie who sat on top of Bakugou's desk, much to his annoyance. Mr. Aizawa then walked into the room with Ms. Joke in casual clothes. The class gawked at the Smile Hero while Ashido stood up and said, "Oh my gosh, hi Ms. Joke!"

Emi waved to the enthusiastic pink girl as Aizawa glared at her. Mina sat down with a grin plastered on her face. "Alright, we won't take too long as it's a bit cramped in here. For those who don't know this is Ms. Emi Fukukado aka Ms. Joke. She is going to accompany me to the gala and help us out." Before his class could make a sound, he continued. "If you are here, then you were asked to the gala or part of my class. The deadline to have someone for the gala is this Tuesday as they need your measurements by then. I could explain the fitting process, but I would botch it. So, let me introduce you to the head designers. Some of you may know one of them."

First, a blonde man in pleated pants and a floral top walked in followed by a woman with short black hair and onyx eyes. She wore an all white sweater dress with tape measure around her neck. Momo's eyes widened. "Mother?" she said.

Aizawa smirked. "Class, this is Shinsuke Kubo and Shiruku Yaoyorozu. Mr. Kubo will be helping the boys while Mrs. Yaoyorouzu will obviously help the girls."

"It is a pleasure to meet you all," Kubo said.

"I feel the same. It is nice to finally meet my daughter's class," Shiruku said. All the students glanced back at Momo who still had a frozen look of shock on her face. "Surprise, Momo." Opening her arms, Momo stepped towards her to meet her embrace.

"How adorable!" Emi said. "Now, the girls will follow me and Mrs. Yaoyorozu to class 2-B where some of her designers and seamstresses are set up while the boys will go with Eraser and Mr. Kubo to class 2-C and do the same. Are you all ready?"

"Yes!" the student exclaimed. Soon, they went to their respected rooms. The desks were cleared of both rooms to make room for sketch pads, tape measure, and designers. The boys had about seven designers in their room while the girls had one assigned for each girl.

Shiruku read off the names of the girls to their designer, and they went to sit one by one until Momo was left. "And of course my special girl will be with me," Shiruku said.

Emi looked over the girls as they sat with their respective designers with a sense of pride and happiness to be a part of this. A woman came up to her. "Ms. Joke?" she asked. Emi nodded. "I'm handling the teacher's dresses. I'm finished with Midnight. Are you ready?" Emi's eyes lit up and followed the designer to her spot.

Momo sat up as her mother started sketching. They were the only silent pair in the room. Momo coughed. Nothing. She coughed again. "Yes, Momo?" she asked without looking up.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you about this," Momo began, "I was waiting to get a date before. I was asked out last night, and I was so excited that I forgot to call you."

"Momo," her mom said, pausing her work. "It's okay. For once, I'm glad you didn't say anything as it made my surprise much sweeter. It also allowed me to fully design my concept for you." She turned her sketch around. The design was of her in a red ball gown with Chinese style golden dragons floating around the fabric. The sketch had her hair back with a gold tiara. "I was thinking the fabric would be silk since you are my princess and you know." She held up her wrist.

Shiruku gave her daughter the sketch book to take a closer look. Momo traced the design with her finger. "This is beautiful, Mother. This won't be too much trouble for you?"

"Please, Momo, I'm your mother. I can do anything, especially if it's for my little girl. Now, who asked you to go?"

Momo gave her the sketch book back and stared at her knees. "His name is Shoto Todoroki. He was the other student who was sent to UA on recondmentaion."

"Endeavor's son? I need to get another look at him, but I already approve."

She glanced back at her mother. "It's not like that. He's very nice, and he took me to a lovely lunch yesterday. I trust him on and off the battlefield."

Her mom placed a hand on her shoulder. "As long as you are happy, dear. Now, let me check your measurements, then you are free to go."

Soon after, the other girls were finishing up their fittings as well. Ashido, with her arms held up for the measuring, noticed Uraraka was about to walk out the room. "Hey, Uraraka, wait for me!" she exclaimed. The zero-gravity hero stopped and nodded. Once she was done with her measurements, Ashido thanked her designer and collected her things. "Hey Uraraka, want to go to Lucky's Cafe with me?" she asked.

Uraraka thought of Deku. "Oh, I don't know, Mina. I was supposed to do something wit-"

"Great, let's get changed and I'll meet you in the common lounge in fifteen. See ya soon!" Mina said, waving as she left Uraraka dumbfounded.

She's got something up her sleeve, but I would be dumb not to play her game. I just hope it's not embarrassing. Uraraka ran to catch up with Mina.

Surprise, Momo's mom is helping out with the dresses! Since we have not met her in the manga or anime officially, so is now an OC. She will be the only OC in this story.

If you noticed, Mineta did get a date, but will she stick around? Let me know your guesses!
