"I JUST THINK URARAKA'S HOT, DUMBASS!"
The echo of Bakugou's thundering voice reverberated throughout the cafeteria. Every student in Class 1A and a vast Majority of Class 1B froze in confusion. Katsuki Bakugou- the most volatile, single minded person in perhaps the entirety of UA high had just expressed interest for something that didn't have to do with being the number one hero.
The first thing Bakugou noticed was Iida doing his hardest to try and stifle the raucous laughter that was threatening to escape his mouth. Bakugou wanted to go nuclear on his smug face. Ever since they had become acquainted with one another, that bespectacled bastard had done nothing but undermine and snark at him. The fucker was getting too comfortable being his pal.
Bakugou then scanned the rest of the room. He noticed Kirishima and Kaminari spit out their food in surprise. He could just picture that pikachu motherfucker thinking up ways to rile him up while Kirishima will now try his damndest to help him win Uraraka's heart. Don't get him wrong, Bakugou thought that was a bro move but Kirishima's advice for women was beyond stupid.
Bakugou also noticed Midoriya's reaction- the guy cupped his chin and began mumbling like he always did. Bakugou knew that the fucker was probably thinking up ways to shit talk him. The fact that he admitted to some sort of attraction to Uraraka, the girl who until recently was head over heels for him made things worse. That fucking Deku had all the ammo he needed to bring him down and Bakugou knew it.
Yaoyorozu and Tsuyu were shocked at first but continued eating like everything was normal. It takes a lot for them to indulge in gossip. Ashido and Tooru were busy giggling their asses off. They were no doubt discussing some juicy gossip about what Bakugou just said. He added that to the growing pile of "stupid shit he got himself into".
The reaction that mattered to Bakugou the most was Uraraka's of course. As subtle as possible, he trailed his gaze towards her to see what she was thinking. It turns out that a lot of those damn extras were looking at her too. She was beet read as she gazed back at all the eyes on her. She must have felt like she had done something wrong. Bakugou knew that a good majority of those looks were from jealous fuckers who were wondering just what she had that they didn't.
A fucking amazing body that's what...and nothing else Bakugou thought trying to convince himself. Even though he couldn't help but sigh adoringly as he saw her clasp her hands on her cheeks and float away in embarrassment. Nope, that sigh was only because he saw her ass as she floated up.
The entire situation ended prematurely when the bell rang and everyone had to get back to class. Tsuyu and Yaoyorozu wrangled Uraraka from the ceiling before they left. And just like that, everyone who was ogling at the scene at hand left to go to their classes. Iida seemed to morph back into his usual self and lightly tapped Bakugou on the shoulder
"We mustn't be late for class, Bakugou. Let's go...you can deal with this later."
The blonde wanted to growl at him and tell to get fucked but he knew that Iida had a point. There was no point in missing Midnight's class. He already had enough to deal with and adding a cut class wouldn't help anyone
It was just his luck that class immediately afterwards was "Hero Relationships" taught by Midnight. It felt like the entire day was revolved around the phrase "let's fuck Katsuki Bakugou over"
"Now class, do you know why this class was added to the curriculum, replacing Modern Hero Art History?"
Kaminari raised his hand "Because Mineta caught Ashido blowing Midoriya?" that statement earned a thumbs up from Mina and caused Midoriya to bury his face in his hands in embarrassment.
Midnight pinched the bridge of her nose in frustration "Though the circumstances are a little weird, you all should be glad that they caused this class to become mandatory."
Sero chuckled "Yeah...didn't know what the purpose of modern hero art history was. This class is understandable. Walking around town you see tons of those cheap tabloid magazines promising those scoops"
"That's correct Sero! Like it or not but heroes influence the society around them. Some of them overshadow movie and music stars in terms of star power. I know that level of fame might seem amazing to you but there are some downsides to all of that. All of your actions will be scrutinized by the press and the public. This could lead to some dire results."
"Look at what has happened when All Might retired. Todoroki's father became the number one hero and suffice to say, not a lot of people were happy with All Might's replacement."
All eyes turned towards Todoroki expecting him to say something regarding Midnight's words. Instead he simply shrugged his shoulders "What? Everything Midnight said is the truth."
Midnight nodded "Thank you for being so understanding Todoroki. I am afraid that All Might set the standard a bit too high for everyone. The man was a machine and seemed to live the hero life to the point where he had little to no personal life. That isn't normal and I want to make sure that nobody expects you to live like that."
"It's human nature to form relationships and heroes do that all the time. What this class aims to teach you is how to handle such relationships. This class is also going to be a sexual education course."
Kaminari raised an eyebrow in interest "Go on…"
Midnight glared at him "I mean that I'm going to teach you about the scientific nature of sexuality including procreation, sexually transmitted infections, how to practice safe sex-"
"Are we going to watch any videos?" Mineta asked with a glint in his eyes.
"Yes, but if you're hoping for something to excite you then you're out of luck." Mineta groaned in defeat.
"Today we are going to be talking about physical attraction-" and on cue, almost everyone started staring at Bakugou. It seemed that either Midnight didn't notice or didn't care because she just continued speaking like nothing happened.
"There is nothing wrong with just finding someone's appearance attractive. As long as both parties consent to intercourse that is purely physical than that is fine. Don't think that everything has to be magical or emotional. Lots of heroes engage in such relationships and it's perfectly normal."
Bakugou's eyes widened in surprise. Midnight's just gave him the answer to the question that plagued his mind. He didn't need to worry about finding Uraraka hot at all! That was one problem out of the way. Now all he needed to do was find a way to get those damn extras from spreading stupid rumors about him because of what he said.
"-Just make sure to try and keep your relationships on the down low, especially if you are involved with another hero."
Fuck
Yaoyorozu raised her hand "why do you single out relationships between two heroes?"
"You see Yaoyorozu, quite a lot of high ranked heroes have large and often obnoxious fanbases. If they witness that a favorite hero of theirs is seeing a hero that they don't like those fans tend to get...rowdy. Take for instance- Mr. Aizawa…"
"Mr. Aizawa?" Yaoyorozu questioned
Midnight laughed "Yes, despite Aizawa's attempts to hide from the spotlight, he had amassed quite a fanbase. A lot of which thinks he should be with Present Mic."
"His best friend?" Tooru called out
"Yes. Apparently, a lot of his and Present Mic's fanbase completely misunderstood their relationship. I don't blame them because a lot of the other teachers including myself thought the same thing."
The entire class laughed at Midnight's confession and Sato asked what was their reaction when the other teachers asked if they were an item.
"Present Mic honestly thought it was pretty hilarious. The man spent a long laughing at the notion while Aizawa was less than impressed and said "I hate you all" in typical Aizawa fashion."
"Back to the topic at hand- when Aizawa's fans found out that he wasn't dating Present Mic and instead was in a relationship with that teacher from Ketsubutsu there was quite the uproar. Ms. Joke actually received some hate mail and death threats from some overzealous fans."
Yaoyorozu's eyes widened in surprise "That seems extremely rude…"
"It is, but that's what it's like being a celebrity. You have to deal with fans who expect everything from you. If you decide to get into a relationship with someone they don't approve of you either hide it or just ignore the vitriol and your partner might not be willing to endure it. That is why I advocate to keep everything private."
Bakugou took a look at Uraraka and scoffed. He knew how strong she was and that she would never let a bunch of pissants who care way too much about who their favorite hero is dating bother her. Nah, all she cares about is making money and Bakugou respected the hustle. If she wants to make money than she would be fighting to be number one and the blonde was eager to see how far she would go.
He smiled internally at the thought of some fucking loser fans pitching fit at the notion of them being a thing. He could just imagine their greasy, sweaty fingers furiously typing rants about how they don't "belong together" or how he "doesn't deserve her" because she was some sweetheart while he was all business.
A part of him realized that he shouldn't be too keen on the idea of dating Uraraka. That he just wanted to fuck her and get things over with but he wasn't listening to that part right now. It terrified him that the thought of actually dating her bought him some joy.
Even if it was because he got to piss off some losers.
Midnight continued her lecture until the bell rang, signifying the end of the class.
"I won't assign you any homework tonight but I will ask you to think about what I told you seriously. This may seem like a waste of time compared to your other classes but you in a few years from now you'll thank me!"
"Oh yeah, and Iida?"
Iida stood in rapt attention "Yes, Ms. Midnight?"
"Tell your brother that I can't wait for our date this Saturday!"
Iida lowered his head in embarrassment "you shouldn't be discussing such matters in class!"
Midnight scoffed "This is class about relationships, relax! But seriously tell him."
Iida gave her a reluctant nod "Very well...I shall inform him of your excitement"
"So...why are we in Yaoyorozu's room?" Uraraka asked
Jirou crossed her arms in annoyance "Mina and Tooru called for an "emergency meeting" and Yaomomo thought it was something serious."
Yaoyorozu cocked her head "Is it not serious? They did say it was an emergency"
Tsuyu croaked "this is ridiculous"
Mina huffed "Guys! Bakugou admitting he loves Uraraka is an emergency!"
Jirou sighed "stop exaggerating, he just thinks she's hot…"
"Yeah but this is Bakugou we're talking about! Since when does he care about anything other than being number one?!"
"We didn't think Midoriya cared about anything other than heroics before he started dating Mina. I guess we judged too early again."
Mina huffed once again "We all know how Bakugou is. Him thinking any romantics thoughts must mean that Uraraka is something special!"
At this point, Uraraka's cheeks were a deep crimson color "I'm not...that...good looking"
Mina was flabbergasted at Uraraka's self-deprecation "Do you seriously think you're not hot when you got the attention of Bakugou that pretty much guarantees that tons of other guys think you're hot."
"This is just too much guys...Bakugou likes me! This is just too weird guys!"
"Well, what do you feel about him, Uraraka?" Yaoyorozu asked
"Uh...spicy?"
"...Spicy?" Tsuyu croaked in confusion
"Yeah, I'm with Tsu here...what are we supposed to do with "spicy" Uraraka?"
"I don't know! He's always scarfing down spicy food non-stop like he's possessed! What else can I say about him?"
"How did you notice that? Do you see him eat like that and think "Damn, I wish he would eat me like that" huh, Uraraka?"
"Mina!" Uraraka squealed her name in embarrassment
"We have to be serious here." Momo called out "Uraraka thinking about Bakugou's love for spicy food could mean something…"
The rest of the girls stared at here like she was a ghost
"Are you serious?" Jirou asked
"Yes" she rubbed her chin thoughtfully "Bakugou's love for spicy food presents a cool and confident demeanor. Uraraka probably feels that someone like him could never be interested in someone like her…"
"That's sounds a little crazy..." Mina scrunched her face in confusion. She was about to to laugh it off with Uraraka until she noticed Uraraka cover the gasp threatening to escape her mouth with her hands, causing her to float to the ceiling.
"...am I that easy to read?" Uraraka sighed from the ceiling
The rest of the girls immediately went to reassure her (and retrieve her from the ceiling)
"Bakugou wouldn't be attracted to you if he didn't think you were strong" Tsuyu stated matter of factly. "He see something in you that he really likes...enough to yell it out"
"But what if he said that I'm hot off a dare or something?"
Jirou gave her a blank look "That implies that Bakugou willingly plays games with the others. Face it Uraraka, he likes you and you're worth it and I think you like him back and that's why you're so worried."
Jirou's words hit her hard and made a question endlessly run through her head
"What did she think of Katsuki Bakugou?"
