Coco: Sorry for the typos, guys, I didn't have anytime to proof read very well, and I'm still resting from getting my wisdom teeth taken out. Almost everything is healed up, but from where one had been decaying before they took it out, they had to make a larger hole to make sure they cleaned everything out. It's totally gross, which I'm sure you didn't want to know. XD Sorry.

Katsuki grumbled underneath his breath as he continued to walk home with a certain ginger on his back. He doesn't know how she managed to do it, but after catching up with her then making the train ride to their neighborhood, she managed to get herself on his back, so he could carry her the rest of the way to his place. He wasn't sure how she did, or why he hasn't just thrown her off yet. But considering how many times this has happened in the past, he doesn't feel like really questioning it. It'd just be an annoyance.

He then turned his head slightly to look at said ginger as she was resting her chin on his shoulder with her head resting against the lower side of his head and partially his neck. Her eyes were closed and she seemed at peace as she took deep breaths. It was almost like she had fallen asleep, which she might have. He looked back forward while snorting.

'Tch, annoying loser,' He thought then slightly adjusted his hold on her, so she remained firmly on his back.

If she ended up falling, she'd never let him hear the end of it that was for sure. And he didn't want to deal with her bitching. He gets enough of that from his mother. They finally made it to his place, and he walked up the steps to the front door.

"Hey, get the door, Aya." He said turning his head towards her again.

She hummed while finally opening her eyes with her white orbs meeting his red orbs.

"You could at least say please." She said.

"Open the door, or I'll drop you on your ass." Katsuki said without missing a beat.

Ayano slightly rolled her eyes at him, but did use her telekinesis to open the door for them. He stepped inside before carefully setting her down onto her feet.

"Mom, we're home." Katsuki called off as he and Ayano took off their shoes.

Ayano set hers down neatly then grabbed Katsuki's to do the same right beside hers since he had just kicked his off. As she was standing up, Katsuki's mother—Mitsuki—came down the hall to greet them.

"Ayano, I'm glad you could join us." Mitsuki said as Masaru was following her. "We never get to see you anymore it seems."

Ayano smiled at Katsuki's parents as Mitsuki placed her hand on Ayano's shoulders.

"I'm sorry, ma'am." Ayano said. "I'll try to visit more often."

Mitsuki smiled then gave the girl a welcoming hug as Katsuki rolled his eyes. As usual, Mitsuki is showing who her favorite "child" is. Once Mitsuki let go of Ayano, the ginger-haired girl turned to Katsuki.

"If you're jealous, Kacchan, I can give you a hug." Ayano said teasingly as she smirked.

"Shut-up!" Katsuki snapped as he started walking past her. "As if I'd want a hug from you, ya soulless ginger!"

He then hissed in pain when his mother grabbed a hold of his ear while glaring down at him.

"Katsuki, show more manners towards our guest!" Mitsuki growled. "I know I've raised you better than this, you little punk!"

"Let go of me, old hag!" Katsuki fired back while prying free. "It's just Aya! I don't have to be someone else in front of her! Or anyone else for that damn matter!"

As the two bickered—rather loudly—Ayano and Masaru stood back to silently watch. While Ayano wasn't afraid of Katsuki and his temper, she knew better to step in front of Mitsuki and her temper, so there was no way she was going to try and stop this fight. She then turned to Masaru.

"Masaru-san, is there anything I can do to help with dinner?" She asked.

"If you would like to," Masaru said nodding. "Let's go into the kitchen, hmm?"

Ayano nodded before following after Masaru to leave the bickering pair in the hallway. It'd probably be another hour or so before either of them cooled down, so it was best to just continue on with the dinner preparations. Ayano just hoped they were done fighting by the time dinner was finished. Though dinner was always so lively and fun when those two argued. She chuckled with a smile appearing on her face as she looked back at Katsuki and Mitsuki who were still fighting. She missed it…the noise because as strange as it sounded it made her feel at home. It made her feel like she was part of a family again unlike when she was in her apartment—all alone.

Katsuki let out a yawn as he walked down the stairs the next morning. Dinner last night had went as expected in the Bakugo Family with his and his old hag of a mom yelling at each other as Masaru and Ayano watched from the sidelines. Now it was time to get ready for another day of school. He walked into the kitchen ready to grab some juice and a cereal bar for breakfast before he had to get dressed, but he paused when seeing Ayano, who had spent the night last night, in the kitchen.

She was still wearing the shirt and shorts she had borrowed from him last night while humming to herself as she was working over the stove. She already had some stuff laid out on the table, and it smelled pretty good from where he was standing. He leaned against the doorway watching her work as she was making a few egg omelets—with some of them set out already on the table—for everyone while using chopsticks to roll and flip the omelet when needed.

'Just how long has she been up?' Katsuki wondered.

"For about an hour now." Ayano answered allowed before turning her head to look at him. "I couldn't sleep, and figured I would try to make breakfast for everyone."

She then flipped her hand with a plate flying right to her, so she could take her omelet from the pan to put on the plate. She then floated the plat to the kitchen table where a glass of orange juice was waiting with a few sides.

"It's all ready if you want to start eating, Kacchan." Ayano said as she was moving the pan she used to the sink with the other cooking utensils.

Katsuki grunted in reply while taking a seat at the table. As he started eating, Ayano quickly started on the dishes since she needed to finish them before getting ready for school. She also needed to swing by her place, so there wasn't a second to lose.

'This is good,' She heard Katsuki think as he continued to eat. 'Who knew Aya could actually cook?'

His thoughts brought a small smile to her face as she continued to wash the dishes she dirtied.

"Something smells delicious." Masaru said as he walked into the kitchen while adjusting his tie.

"Good-morning, Masaru-san." Ayano said. "I have your food ready as well, and the coffee should be done soon."

She waved her hand towards the table with another plate floating around and fixing itself as the food and utensils floated as well. It then neatly settled down at the head of the table for Masaru as the coffeemaker started beeping meaning it was finished. Masaru went over and fixed himself a cup as Ayano was finishing up on the dishes.

"Thank-you for this, Ayano, but you didn't have to trouble yourself." Masaru said as he went to take a seat.

"I know, sir." Ayano said. "But it's nice actually having people to cook for, and enjoy the morning with."

She then finished drying the dishes before using her telekinesis to send the dishes where they belonged. She excused herself to get ready while patting Katsuki on the head as she passed, which had him growling.

"Don't pet my head like I'm some kind damn of a dog, Aya!" He snapped.

"Then stop acting like one with rabies, Katsuki." Ayano said as she continued on her way to head up the stairs.

Katsuki continued growling about annoying women as his father chuckled from his place at the table.

"You know, Ayano will probably make one lucky guy a good wife someday." Masaru commented casually.

Katsuki looked at his dad as if he grew two heads as Masaru continued to sip his coffee.

"Her someone's wife?" Katsuki asked. "Yeah, right. I doubt she could get anyone to marry her."

He rolled his eyes at the thought. He couldn't imagine someone being dumb enough to even date Ayano. She's the most annoying girl in the world in his book. Always trying to keep him on a leash, and always butting into his and Izuku's fights. She's been like that since they were little. Said girl then came back down the stairs not long after while dressed and with her bag over her shoulder.

"I'm going to leave now, so I can swing by my place." Ayano said. "Thank-you again for having me over for dinner, Masaru-san."

"Not at all." Masaru said smiling at the girl.

She was almost like a daughter to him considering how closely she grew up with Katsuki. Sharing cribs since they were in diapers. Always going to the same school. All the sleepovers and playdates Mitsuki had organized with her parents and then Ko. The two were always at each other's sides. And he hoped things continued on like that for a long time because he felt as if they two needed each other.

"I'll see you at school, Kacchan." Ayano said as she was heading for the door to get her shoes.

"Yeah, yeah," Katsuki replied waving his hand in a dismissive manner.

Ayano rolled her eyes though said nothing as she slipped on her shoes. She then went out the door knowing she had to quickly go to her place to grab her bag for the sleepover tonight. She was really looking forward to it, which kind of surprised her. Since a night stuck with a bunch of girls never was appealing to her before. Of course, her previous classmates were all annoying, and their thoughts always left her with major headaches. But her new classmates were completely different, so she looked forward to getting to know each and every one of them.

"Now do I have everything?" Ayano asked herself as she looked through her bag while walking down the sidewalk to the school.

She just wanted to double check though it was a bit too late to head back home to get anything. She shrugged supposing she would have to just deal with it if she didn't. Though she was sure she had what she needed. Ayano then paused when hearing a lot of buzzing voices just ahead.

'I need to get this interview in, or my boss is going to kill me!'

'Why can't any of these kids just answer a few questions?!'

'We need to learn how All Might is doing as a teacher!'

Ayano frowned realizing what stood between her and the entrance into the school was the media circus. A bunch of reporters who wanted to know how the Symbol of Peace was adjusting to life as a teacher. Just her luck. Now she'd have to push her way into campus. And getting rough with them wasn't an option.

"Damn." She cursed under her breath.

She then took in a deep breath while knowing she couldn't put it off. She had to get to class, and she refused to be late just because of a bunch of hungry news reporters. She started walking forward while hoping they wouldn't notice her until it was too late. Everything was going well. She made it to the reporters walked through them pretty much with ease until about the last two rows of them since she had been spotted. And once one of them saw her, they all circled like a bunch of lions circling pray.

"You girl!" The brunette reporter said shoving a microphone in her face. "Are you one of All Might's students?! Tell us, what the Symbol of Peace is like in person!"

Ayano just frowned at the microphone shoved in her face before turning her frown up at the reporter.

"It doesn't matter if I am or not because I have nothing to say to the media." Ayano said. "Now, I'm running late to class, and you're in my way. So, please, step aside."

Some of the reporters shrunk away at her callous tone, but the brunette just narrowed her eyes while standing firmly. So she thought she was a tough one, huh?

"Listen, kid, we just want a few answers." The reporter said. "Can't you give us anything?"

"No." Ayano deadpanned.

The reporter growled looking as if she was going to insist again, but Ayano was saved when Aizawa, who had come from the school to probably collect her, pushed his way to her side.

"I thought I told you all to leave and stop disturbing my students." Aizawa said as he placed a hand on Ayano's shoulder and made a shooing motion with the other.

The reporters all frowned though did make a path to let the two pass. As they walked on, they were watched by a pale haired man from across the street.

'So the psychic is here just as Teacher said she'd be,' He thought.

He noticed how she stiffened as if picking up his voice. She turned around as if to pinpoint him, but he had already moved on to join the crowd moving down the street.

'I'll be back,' He thought smirking. 'And soon you'll learn who I am.'

Ayano frowned as she looked across the street where she could have thought she picked up the thoughts of a sinister voice. Aizawa looked down at her with a quirked brow as he wondered what had stopped her. He looked to where she was looking to only see those annoying reporters.

"Ishida, it's time for class." Aizawa said ushering her along. "Stop wasting time."

"Yes, sir." Ayano said looking back forward.

But still…that voice. It bothered her. Something definitely wasn't right about it. Should she say something? She glanced up at Aizawa who already seemed annoyed by all those reporters. Maybe she shouldn't bother him with something she thought she had heard. She then looked back once more as the school's defenses were set off due to one of the reporters trying to get too close. As the iron walls set up, Ayano tried to assure herself that even if she did hear anything that no one would be getting through those walls.

Ayano sat in class with a frown on her face as Aizawa started going over the results from yesterday's class with All Might. She was a bit distracted while still thinking about the voice at the gate, but tried to listen to their teacher.

"Decent work on yesterday's combat training, you guys." He commented. "I saw the video feeds, and went over each of your teams' results. Bakugo,"

Katsuki frowned at the sound of his name while sure he didn't want to hear what was about to be said.

"You're talented." Aizawa said. "So don't sulk like a child about your loss, okay?"

"Yeah, whatever." Katsuki said.

He sounded like his usual self, but Ayano could tell he was still a bit sore about yesterday. Not that she pointed this out since it'd certainly start a fight.

"Now, Midoriya," Aizawa continued causing Izuku to flinch. "I see the only way you won the fight was by messing up your arm again. Work harder, and don't give me the excuse that you don't have control over your quirk. That line is already getting old. You can't keep breaking your body while training here. But your quirk will be really useful if you can get a handle on it. So show a little urgency, huh?"

"Right!" Izuku said with his head held high.

Aizawa then turned to look at Shoto in the back and Ayumi who was in the same row.

"Todoroki, you did well in the lesson, but made the mistake of being cocky." Aizawa said. "You assumed you had the fight won from the beginning, and underestimated your opponents and your teammate. If Ishida hadn't went after you, the match would have went to Jinsoku and Ojiro's team. You are very talented, but remember to rely on others when the moment calls for it."

Ayano was a bit surprised Aizawa brought up their match. Theirs hadn't been that exciting, and nothing extremely bad had happened. Besides, it's the job of one's teammate to help them in where they lack. Which was all she had done.

"Yes, sir." Shoto said.

He had learned that lesson yesterday. If Ayano had listened to him, and just remained outside, they would have lost. And it would have been his fault. Underestimating your opponent is bad enough, which he had done when concerning Ayumi. But underestimating your teammate was worse it seems.

"And, Jinsoku," Aizawa said solely putting his eyes on her. "You did the same as Todoroki. You thought too highly of your own skills, and placed your teammate even if out of harm's way to the sideline thinking you could handle your two opponents alone. Unluckily for you, Ishida was able to immobilize Ojiro before he could do it to her, which cost you the match."

"Right." Ayumi said as she scratched the back of her head. "Won't happen again. Sorry, Mashirao."

Mashirao smiled at Ayumi saying it was alright before Aizawa moved on to the next business they had to handle.

"Let's get down to business." Aizawa said. "Our first task will decide your future."

This had many of the class stiffening and expecting the worse. Though Ayano just rolled her eyes thinking Aizawa was being a bit dramatic considering what they'd be covering.

"You all need to pick a class representative." Aizawa said.

'Oh, good, just normal school stuff,' Those who had been worried thought.

A second later people were popping out of their seats telling everyone to pick them, and the entire class just became an uproar. The only ones really not jumping around or shouting was Shoto, Momo, Konan, Fumikage, and Ayano. Oh, and Mezo, Izuku, and Hachiro. But two out of three of them looked almost frightened by the behavior of their classmates.

"Silence, everyone, please!" Tenya's voice shouted above the rest.

This brought everyone to silence as they looked towards Tenya who was standing from his seat.

"The class representative's duty is to lead others." Tenya said. "It's not something just anyone can do. You must first have the trust of every student in the classroom. Therefore the most logical way to fulfill this position is democratically. We will hold an election to choose our leader."

Ayano thought that was for the best that way it just wasn't one large screaming match for the rest of class. She was sure it'd only annoy Aizawa, which wasn't something any of them wanted. She then looked closely to Tenya noticing how much she was shaking. She chuckled coming to the same conclusion of the others.

"It's pretty obvious you want us all to vote you for." Everyone said in unison.

Ayano could tell by the thoughts of her classmates that many of them weren't sure about voting for Tenya. Though if she was being honest, she thought he was the right choice for the position. He had the drive and the passion for it, and he was obviously well organized.

"Is this really best idea?" Denki asked out loud.

"We've only known each other a few days." Tsuyu pointed out. "How do we know who we can trust?"

"We can ask Ishida to look inside everyone's minds like a background check search!" Hachiro suggested pointing to Ayano.

Everyone turned to the ginger-haired girl as she sweat-dropped. She knew the girls told her they trusted her with their thoughts, but the boys were okay with it too? None of them were objecting at least. Though Konan had a troubled expression on her face as did Shoto and Fumikage. She could tell they would be uncomfortable if she looked to deep inside their heads, which was completely understandable.

"I'd rather not do that." Ayano said. "Besides, I don't know you all well enough yet to do full out searches through your heads. My quirk won't allow me to do so. I can only read what's on the surface of your minds for now, and even if I could, I wouldn't since it's an invasion of privacy."

Everyone nodded seeming to understand where she was coming from. However, that left them back were they started.

"Well, whatever," Eijiro said. "We all already know that everyone is just going to vote for themselves.

"Most people will, but that means whoever does receive multiple votes must truly be the most suitable person for the job." Tenya said.

Again Ayano agreed with him, but he wasn't winning any points from the rest of their classmates. Poor guy.

"It's the best way, right, sir?" Tenya asked Aizawa, who was in his sleeping bag all of a sudden.

"Do what you want." Aizawa said. "Just decide before my nap is over."

He then fell to the floor while instantly starting to snore lightly. It was almost impressive how easily he could fall asleep.

"Thank-you for your trust!" Tenya said. "Now let's all get pieces of paper to write down who we wish to vote for, and draw a diagram on the board for when we tally our votes."

"Alright." Ayano said as she stood up.

She might as well help out to give her something to do. She wanted to keep busy and stay focused on school tasks. It meant her mind wouldn't wander back to this morning at the school gate.

"We can use this to place the votes inside." Ayano said while taking the cup that had pencils and things inside.

It was rather larger, and she just took out the things inside of it to set to the side. She can put them back later. She set it at Aizawa's podium where everyone in the class could reach it.

"Yes, good thinking, Ishida!" Tenya said. "And once all the votes are collected, we will tally them up."

Everyone shrugged their shoulders guessing they'd go along with it. It wasn't a bad idea they supposed. Everyone got out scraps of paper to write down who their vote was with almost everyone writing down their own names as Ayano was making the diagram on the board to have it ready. She already knew who her vote was, and once she was done with the diagram, she returned to her seat to take her own piece of paper out.

She wrote her choice on the paper as some of the others were placing theirs in the cup. Once she finished, she took hers to the cup as well to place inside. In a few more minutes everyone was done voting, and Tenya tallied up the votes. Based on the crushed expression on his face, and his saddened thoughts, Ayano knew he didn't win. He kept quiet the entire time though as he wrote the results on the board for everyone to see.

The ones with the most points were Izuku, Momo, and—Ayano blinked wondering if she read that right. She received two votes? But how? She didn't vote for herself. She then looked around the room peeking into her classmates' heads to see who voted for who. As she already knew, most voted themselves. However, Tenya and Ochaco voted for Izuku, which pushed his number count to three. Shoto voted for Momo, which brought her count up to two.

Ayano's eyes then landed on Hachiro as he smiled at her and waved slightly when noticing her look. He had voted for her? That explains why he had no votes, and the only other person with no votes was Fumikage. He voted for her. But why? She didn't really have time to ask since Aizawa woke up while seeing they had finished their voting as Izuku was gawking at the board.

"How did I get three votes?!" He asked.

"Okay, you idiots!" Katsuki exclaimed as he jumped up from his seat. "Who voted for Deku?! And who the hell voted for Aya?"

He turned to her knowing she had to know, but she just sat there with a puzzled look on her face.

"What? Did you honestly think anyone was going to vote for you?" Hanta asked.

As the class discussed the results, though with the highest votes were asked to come to the front of the class. Ayano stood beside Momo with Izuku in front of them as she tried to understand why she had received any votes. She wasn't anything special. In her old school, she avoided being in any kind of attention. She didn't even talk to her classmates, and no one ever considered making her leader of anything. That was how she liked it too, so she wasn't sure how she felt about tying for deputy of the class.

"Alright the class rep is Midoriya." Aizawa said. "And since they tied Yaoyorozu and Ishida will share the title of deputy."

"Really?" Izuku asked shaking. "It's not a mistake?"

"How'd this happen?" Momo asked sighing.

"That's what I want to know." Ayano said scratching the back of her head.

She was certain nothing good would come out of this. She wasn't a leader of any kind. Why did some of her classmates think otherwise?
