"Since the entrance exam, we kind of talked there and then met eachother again here." I said, standing next to Izuku.

"Don't know why you'd wanna be friends with a useless nerd like that." Bakugo said, walking past us.

"What did he say? I'm gonna kill him." I was about to turn around to go after him before Izuku held me back.

"He's not worth it, Y/n. Kacchan has always been like this." He said, avoiding my gaze.

"Well just because he's 'always' been like this, doesn't make it okay." I grumbled.

Kirishima chuckled as I plopped down on the floor upset.

"Alright, well just let me know if whatever he says starts getting worse or more repetitive." I was kicking the tips of my shoes together.

"Y/n, get off the ground, that is unsanitary and class has ended!" I looked up, there was Iida towering over me, or as I remember more clearly, Señor four eyes.

I rolled my eyes at him.

He put his palm to his forehead before softening. "I, wanted to apologize for the way I treated you and Midoriya the other day." He said turning his head away from me.

"I was quite harsh on him." Iida confessed.

"You both are very strong and capable people and I do hope we can friends or at least acquaintances."

I looked up at Iida, pushing myself up off the ground, I took Iida's hand to shake.

"You're forgiven, and as for the friend thing." I looked to Izuku and he nodded.

"As long as you're willing to get to know us, of course." I smiled.

Aizawa walked up to us. "Hey, Midoriya, take this to the old lady, and get your finger fixed up."

"And trainings gonna be tougher tomorrow, so prepare."

------------

I was walking with Iida to the front gate of UA as our last class ended, when we spotted Midoriya moping ahead a bit in front of us.

Iida sped up a bit and tapped Midoriya lightly on the shoulder, "how's the broken finger doing?" Iida asked.

"O-Oh. It's doing fine, thanks to recovery girl." Izuku said, holding up his bandaged, broken finger.

As we exited the gate and left campus, I paused, "I have to go, see you guys soon?" I said.

"Yeah of course." Izuku smiled.

"Oh hey, wanna exchange numbers guys?" I asked looking at the two of them.

"I'd like that, here's my phone." Izuku turned his on and went to contacts handing me it.

I typed my number in. Then to Iida's too.

I waved them off before Iida looked to me, "are you sure you'll be alright? Walking around alone? The sun is setting, do you live close?"

"Oh, uhm. Yeah I guess you could say that, I'll be fine though don't worry." I nodded, holding a thumbs up.

There was no way in hell I was letting anyone know I lived in a children's home.

I want to be normal.

Not pitied.

And hey, I could protect myself right? My quirks are overpowered together.

I waved them off yet again before walking the opposite direction.

I put in my earbuds and blasted my favorite playlist.

I didn't really like taking the train. Trains always gave me uneasy feelings. Plus walking was fine, even if it took a while to get home this way, I'd get to see the sunsets in the fall and the green grass in spring, it was all beautiful and I appreciated it.

If I'm being honest I like all of these things so much because they remind me of my parents. I see them in everything, especially the beautiful sights.

When I was younger my mom would always tell me these wonderful stories about the stars, moon, and night sky, and as for dad, he'd talk to me about the sunsets, sunrises, and rainbow clouds of fluff.

"Nothing gold can stay." He'd always tell me that quote. It was from a book he would tell me about from time to time. He seemed to really love it.

However, the theme of that book was basically just..

Nothing good lasts forever. I hate that.

So much. And I believe something inside me always has.

Sure I know nothing good lasts forever, but that doesn't mean it should only last a few hours.

They took my parents too soon.

I know now if I truly want to live their legacy, I would have to vouch I'd never fall in love, because once things end, I know I wouldn't be the only one getting hurt.

Because after all,

Nothing gold can stay.
