Conversations

Izuku was walking to the dorms and as he walked down the path he had earlier with Mina, he thought of the cute moment he just recently shared with her. He pulled out his phone to look at the picture, smiling to himself. He changed it to his phone's home screen and lock screen as Mina had done. Whatever he had with Uraraka was over, he was with Mina and he was happy, "Regardless of how we ended up together."

There was someone waiting for him as he reached the dorms.

"Oi, Deku, we need to talk."

"Huh, Kacchan, is something wrong?"

"Just c'mon."

"Oh, uh, sure."

Bakugo and Midoriya went to take a walk as they talked about Kirishima.

Toru and Mina were in her room as they talked.

"I don't know if you noticed but yesterday Uraraka kinda snuck out with Momo." Toru told her friend as they sat next to each other on her bed.

Mina fell back with a flop, spreading her arms across as she stared at the ceiling. "Ugh, of course, I didn't notice. I couldn't focus because of all the attention."

"I know it wasn't intentional but Uraraka is upset, maybe you guys should talk."

"Yeah, you're right but it might be a lot harder than I think?"

"Huh, what do you mean?"

Mina chewed on her lip before sitting back up. "There's something I wanted to talk to you about but couldn't in front of everyone else."

"Hm, what is it?"

Mina wasn't able to look at her friend directly, staring off to the side, playing with one of her horns. She spoke slowly at first before rushing her sentence to the finish line. "Er, well the thing is... Me and Izuku, um, we may have slept together before becoming boyfriend and girlfriend!.. Eheheh."

"YOU WHAT?!"

Bakugo and Midoriya were on a bench somewhere down the path. Kacchan more or less grunted out that Kirishima had feelings for Ashido. Midoriya was taken by surprise at first but the more he thought of it the more it made sense. Kacchan began to get up to take his leave but Izuku stopped him with his words, "Um, wait Kacchan. It's just, er, I don't know how to say this but I slept with Mina!"

"You just said it, moron..." Bakugo reluctantly made his way back, sitting on the bench. He was honestly flabbergasted that Deku would blurt that out, let alone actually sleep with someone. Whether he liked it or not, at this point he was involved with Deku's situation and Bakugo was the kind of guy who saw things through. And for Midoriya, he didn't know who else to talk to, Todoroki would have listened but most likely wouldn't have any concrete advice, same for Iida. Kacchan was the most upfront and strangely enough the most grounded.

Both, Mina and Toru, Deku and Kacchan were talking about the events that had transpired over the weekend that had led up to this point. They explained how their relationship was strange in that they were shy during the day while suggesting that it was completely different at night. Bakugo didn't want to hear any details while Toru couldn't get enough. Midoriya laid things out as logically as possible while his girlfriend did the opposite, blushing about how passionate they got.

"I would have never thought Midoriya had it in him to do that." Toru had her hand to her parted lips, shocked by her friend's story.

Mina nodded along. "He was supposed to be the innocent cinnamon roll, and now he's my boyfriend."

"I honestly never saw you guys as a thing but now that you are, you're so cute together!" And her grin was literally beaming, because of her quirk and being happy for her friend.

"Right!" Mina matched her friend's smile, both enjoying the chance to be giddy about relationships.

"But I'll talk to Uraraka. I don't want to worry Izuku about this." But her smile faltered as she let out an uneasy chuckle.

Toru tilted her head, noticing the added unsure features. "There's more to it, isn't there?"

Kacchan had heard out Deku to a certain extent before he got fed up and walked away.

"Ah but thanks for listening." Deku waved as he left. He knew Kacchan wouldn't open his mouth about personal stuff like this, mostly because he didn't care but also because it was in his character.

"Fuck off, why don't ya!" He barked back with shark eyes. He had spent way more time with Deku than he wanted.

"Yup, that's in his character too." Deku chuckled to himself as Kacchan left. He remained seated on the bench wanting to think to himself for a moment. He stared at the sky, the sun was getting ready to set and it gave a peaceful glimmer to the petals.

"Kirishima has feelings for Mina... What about her? Did she, does she have something for him?" It's not like feelings just go away. "But if that's true then..." He thought about what happened over the weekend. He slapped his cheeks together and shook his thoughts away. "I shouldn't worry Mina about this. Ah, she's probably waiting for me."

And he was right. Mina was chilling on the couch, scrolling through her phone like usual. There were a few other students in the living quarters but he didn't notice them. Her horns perked up, having seen him coming in through the door. They made eye contact, they both hesitated before putting on a small smile. Neither Mina nor Izuku wanted the other to worry about the problems already facing their new relationship.

The both of them just wanted to spend time together, so that's what they did. He went to sit by her on the couch. She welcomed his company by snuggling up against him but making sure it wasn't too intimate so no one in the area would be uncomfortable. He reciprocated by placing his arm over her shoulders as he leaned back to get comfy with her. She asked him about the question Momo needed help on, he made a joke about how she wouldn't understand it. She play-smacked him, saying she was just trying to show an interest in his nerdy side and that next time she wouldn't put in the effort. He let himself get hit as he laughed, trying to apologize. Mina tried to keep a pout up but it would always easily break into a fit of giggles due to his clumsy, good-natured charm, she would then get mad and put the pout back on before the process repeated. And they spent the rest of the evening hanging out like a couple.

It was night. It was quiet, oh so quiet. They were on their individual beds, staring off in thought. They didn't want the other to worry but how could they not worry themselves...

"Izuku and Uraraka..?"

"Mina and Kirishima..?"

"Oi, you never answered my question... Are you a virgin, Midoriya?"

"Are you, Ashido?"

And they both replied at the same time with the same answer.

"No..."
