#also a man with ridic pink lips

[dadsbongos]

Lunedi (2/7)

"Once you're all changed into your hero uniforms, head down to ground beta- " Shota stopped talking when he noticed something extremely unusual in the back of the classroom, "(Y/n), why are you crying?"

The girl sniffled, rubbing at her eyes before shaking her head, "It's nothing, don't worry about it..."

Nodding, the man slowly turned back to the front board, "As I was saying..."

She couldn't believe it, how could he not know what was wrong? (Y/n) crossed her arms, pouting childishly and toeing at a mysterious brown stain on the floor when her classmates stood. Following, she grabbed her hero costume and waited for Mina before beginning down the hall.

"So, this Friday," Mina hesitated, not exactly certain if Katsuki's lie was still present in her friend's mind, "do you have a date yet?"

"Why would I have a date on Aizawa's birthday?" (Y/n) cringed at the thought, "That'd be kinda weird..."

"It's not- " the pink girl sighed, no longer all that excited for the upcoming conversation, "nevermind. This Friday is the school dance. I was asking if you had a date."

"Oh," (Y/n) mumbled, shrugging soon after, "no. I might go with Sero since he never has a date either."

"Sero would be... a choice..." Mina strained a smile, turning into the changing room and opening her locker, "You could go with him, or I've been hearing some rumors that someone from 1-B likes you."

"Who?" the other girl questioned, pulling off her flats, "If it's Tetsutetsu then no, not because the teeth scare me, but because of the eyelashes."

Shaking her head, Mina undid her tie, "I'm pretty sure it's not Tetsutetsu, he's going with Shiozaki, I think. Also, please try to keep in mind I said it was a possibility, not a certainty. I just overheard Kendou and Kodai talking about someone having a crush on you, but like," she paused to shut her locker and adjust the top of her costume, "they also probably knew I was listening."

"Why would they know?"

"I tripped in front of them a few seconds earlier."

"Sounds like something I'd do."

"Exactly," Yosetsu grumbled, running a hand through his wild hair, "that's why you shouldn't do it."

Neito glared at his classmate, "Uncalled for. I don't see what's wrong with just pretending she's the enemy."

"If you want to go out with her you should," Tetsutetsu yawned, "I'm kinda done talking to you about this. Just make up your damn mind, okay?"

Kicking a nearby rock, the blond huffed about how they just didn't get it. Suddenly a tapping to his shoulder brought Neito back into reality, he turned - no longer prepared to strike a conversation - and felt his knees weaken.

(Y/n) smiled softly at the blond, "Our teachers said I should come get you. They're getting ready to explain the exercise."

"Right," the boy squeaked before clearing his throat and repeating the word in a much deeper voice.

"Monoma, right?" she looked over to her temporary rival, "Your Quirk's pretty cool, even though you rid- " she stopped to rethink the word, "ridic... rid..."

"Ridicule?"

"Yeah," the girl grinned, beaming over at the boy, "that's the word! Even though you ridicule my class; thanks by the way."

"Sure thing," Neito nodded, refraining from taunting the airhead next to him. Mostly due to the fact that they were now in front of their homeroom teachers and partly because she looked so adorable smiling over at him.

Itsuka quirked an eyebrow at her friend, elbowing him in the side to whisper, "You were being nice."

"I'm not a monster," he responded under his breath, "she was too cute to make fun of. Leave me alone."

. . .

"So," Mina nudged her best friend in the side, not believing for a second that the girl was genuinely paying attention to the fight in front of her, "I saw Monoma talking to you earlier, and you looked pretty happy so I assume he wasn't insulting you... unless you didn't care?"

"Yeah," (Y/n) nodded, looking over to the girl, "I wonder if he knows who likes me..."

"Uh- " Hanta's jaw dropped, eyes widened, "please, please tell me you're not that stupid."

The clueless teenager's lips pulled into a soft frown, a weak whine leaving her, "Hey... that was mean..."

"Good," Katsuki glared at his - for whatever reason - friend, "you said something stupid and you got called out on it. Just be glad I'm not the one who did it first."

Shaking her head, Mina took one of (Y/n)'s shoulders, "It's okay, sweetie. And, in some way, I'm sure he does know. The whole reason he wasn't being rude to you, like he so ruthlessly is to the rest of us, is because he just knows that someone likes you."

"When you say it like that..." the other girl trailed off, "it kinda sounds like I was right, but," she looked over to Katsuki, "everybody knows that can't be true."
