After Jirou and Kaminari's performance, some pro heroes began to leave, including Midnight and Present Mic to check on Nezu and the school. Aizawa and Emi were sitting at the class dinner table when Ojiro and Hagakure approached them hand-in-hand. "I think we are going to head to our rooms, Mr. Aizawa if that is okay," Ojiro said.
"I'm getting sleepy," Hagakure yawned.
"That is fine. Please keep in mind that I will be doing bed checks later," Aizawa said.
Ojiro turned red as he released his grip from Hagakure. "Good to know, sir. Have a good night," he said as he bowed his head to both of the teachers.
Emi waved as they walked off. "Wow Aizawa, way to plant fear into your students," she said.
"I don't feel like dealing with possible pregnancy scares or anything of the like right now," Aizawa replied. Emi responded by slapping him on the shoulder.
A couple more pairs came up to the teachers to let them know they were leaving, one pair being Bakugo and Camie. Aizawa notified them of the bed checks. "Damn, Bakubae, I guess no first sleepover for us tonight," Camie said.
Bakugo's whole body burned up. "Camie!" he yelled at her. He turned his attention back to the teachers. "I promise she's kidding," he said as he dragged her out the ballroom.
Not all the students have decided to leave. Tokoyami leaned against the balcony and stared at the cloudy sky while Tsuyu examined the garden. "It's such a lovely night," she said.
He sighed and turned his body to face the barriers. "I agree," he replied. The clouds then parted to reveal the full moon which brightened up the outdoors.
"Look, it's a full moon tonight!" Tsu exclaimed.
"That's probably why there was a lot of tension tonight. However, I find that Dark Shadow is the most calm during full moons, so I enjoy them."
"It's kind how I like the rainy season due to my quirk. Usually, people don't like the rain, but I love it. I feel like most myself during thunderstorms."
Tokoyami stared at her as she talked and then glanced at her hands on the railing. Take her hand, Dark Shadow said to him inside his head. Tokoyami shook his head and turned his attention back to the sky. Fine, if you won't do it, I will. A force made Tokoyami take Tsu's closest hand to him. Tsu looked up with surprise. "Uh, uh, you don't mind, do you?" Tokoyami asked.
Tsu entangled her fingers with his. "No, not all," she replied while leaning her head against his shoulder.
"Tsu, thank you for asking me to come with you tonight." The jet-black hero leaned his head against hers.
"There was no one else I would have wanted to come with." He sighed as they stared out into the garden.
In the garden, Midoriya and Uraraka walked through the path. Their hands brushed up against one another's, but they retracted them. Midoriya noticed Uraraka shivering and placed his suit jacket over her shoulders. "Thanks Deku," she said.
"No problem," Midoriya replied. "So, did you have fun tonight?"
"Of course! It was more beautiful than I imagined. The ballroom, the decorations, the food! It was all great!" She paused and looked at him. "The best part? I got to come here with you."
Midoriya blushed and turned his head away. "I completely agree."
"What was it like seeing your mom here with All Might?"
"It was surprising of course, but I'm glad she came. She and All Might have grown close these past few months, and I could tell she had fun tonight."
"She also looked gorgeous! Are they dating?"
"What! No, they are just close friends." He then thought for a moment. "At least, I think they are just friends.
Uraraka's eyes widened until she saw the tree swing. "Hey look, a swing! Can you push me?"
"Sure!" She fully put his jacket on and jogged into the swing as Midoriya began to lightly push her. "You know, now that the moon is out, your dress is shinier."
"Is that bad?"
"No, I think it's really pretty!" Uraraka cheek's warmed to reflect her dress.
She swung for a few minutes before mentioning she was getting tired. Midoriya slowed her down and offered her his hand. She took it and didn't let go as they began to walk back. From the balcony, Kirishima stood next to Mina with his arm around her waist. "We did good," she said as she pointed out Midoriya and Uraraka.
Kirishima chuckled and kissed the top of her head. "I agree," he replied. He then glanced up to the full moon. "We should go get ready for bed. It's getting late." Mina shivered and he placed his jacket around her shoulders. "And cold."
She stuck her tongue out at him. "Fine," she said. She leaned in close to him. "We could share the same bed, you know?"
Kirishima flushed at that comment as someone coughed behind him. They snapped their heads to the doorway where Aizawa stood with Ms. Joke. "That's not happening," he said. Kirishima's blush turned into a deeper red as the pair jumped away from each other.
"I guess the same should be said to you," Mina said as she raised an eyebrow toward the teachers. Kirishima began to sweat as Aizawa glared at his ambitious student.
"She got you, Eraser!" Emi snorted as the erasure hero turned his glare to her.
"I was totally joking, Mr. Aizawa!" Mina exclaimed as she pulled Kirishima past them. "Good night!" They then ran out of the ballroom.
"I should fail her," Aizawa commented.
"Oh come on," Emi said, fixing his tie. "Let them have fun with you. She totally had a point."
"You have your own room."
Emi pouted her lips. "How rude." He rolled his eyes and walked back to their table to wait for the rest of the students. I bet I can get him to change his mind. She snickered as she went to join him.
Welp, Dark Shadow is the ultimate wingman, and Aizawa is the best protective dad.
