"Nope," he says pushing my arm down and pulling out his wallet

"I know I'm not going to win this" I say putting my arms down defeated

"No you will not" I say earning an eye roll from Denki

"So, where are we going next?" he asks grabbing the clothes from Hikara

"Lets go to Nordstrom!" he says dragging me out of the store

"Bye Denki!" Hikara says waving us off

"Bye Hikara!" Denki says waving back

"Denki you don't have to drag me" I say not wanting to fall over

"Sorry" he says smiling widely 'adorable'

"Shinsou" he says snapping me out of my thoughts

"Yeah?" I say trying to calm down my blush as we start walking

"How come you have a nickname for me but I don't have one for you?" he asks grabbing my hand

"Oh, umm, I don't know" I say, having not thought about it

"Can I give you a nickname?" he asks tilting his head to the side 'so cute'

"Sure" I say curious as to what it will be.

"How about Shin" he says excitedly

"Yeah, I like it" I say my face heating up

"Yay!" he says excitedly

"Yeah" I say quietly, smiling

"Oh, so you can smile" he jokes

"Shut up" I say genuine happy

"No" he says grabbing my hand tighter and pulling me to the next shop

"So, what do you want to get?" I ask when we get to the store

"Let's just look around" he says walking around "Look!" he says pointing to a cropped nirvana shirt

"Cute" I say quietly though I don't think he heard it

"Do you like it?" he asks holding it up to his chest

"Yeah" I say trying not to blush

"I'm getting this" he says checking the size, and exchanging it for a smaller one instead

"Do they have jewelry?" I ask, since I didn't get any at hot topic

"Yeah, but its mostly women's" he says pointing towards the earring

"I'm wearing women's earrings, so I don't really care" I say motioning to my ears

"Really?" he asks curious

"Yeah, I couldn't find one's I liked in the guy's section" I say, as we start walking to the jewelry section

"Good point" he says "Oh this looks nice" he says grabbing a pair of skull earrings

"Maybe" I say holding the up to my ears

"They look so good, you should totally get them" he says excitedly

"Sure" I say leading him back to the register

"Hi, how can I help you" a red haired girl pipes up from behind the register

"Hi! We would like to buy these" Denki says setting his cropped top and my earrings onto the table

"Oh, ok" she says giving us a weird look then scanning the items "Are you getting these for a girl?" She asks looking nervous

"No" Denki says quickly

"Oh," she says more nervous "Here you go" she says setting the bag down on the counter instead of handing it to us like she did with the other costumers

"Thanks" Denki says grabbing my hand and walking out the door quickly

"Denks, can you loosen your grip a little" I say, my hand heating up slightly "Ow, Denki" I say feeling a slight shock and trying to pull my hand away

"Sorry" he says letting go and looking up at me terrified

"Are you ok?" I ask worried

"Y-yeah I'm f-fine" he says not looking me in the eyes

"Denki" I say grabbing his face "Are, you, ok?" I say looking him in the eyes

"Get away from me, I don't want to hurt you" he says backing away from me

"Denki" I say walking with him

"Don't touch me," he says still trying to get away from me

"Denki" I say trying to calm him down "You're not going to hurt me" I say getting closer to him

"Yes I will, I can't lose you to" he says setting down and putting his hands into his hair

"Are you ok?" I ask the question laced with my quirk

"I-I don't wa-" he starts before I take over

"Breath with me" I order breathing in and out with three second intervals, we breath together for a couple of seconds

"Are you ok" I ask knowing I will get the truth this time

"No" he says with a blank face 'I hate seeing him like this'

"What just happened?" I ask still worried

"Flashbacks" he says before I feel a slight tug on my quirk

"Are you trying to get out?" I ask, my head hurting slightly

"Yes" he says before I release him from my quirk "What was that?" he asks rubbing his eyes

"Im sorry, I didn't know how else to help." I say quickly

"That was so cool" he says excitedly

"What?" I say in disbelief

"That was awesome" he says standing up

"Umm, thanks?" I say confused

"What happened anyway?" he asks scratching the back of his neck

"Whats the last thing you remember?" I ask so I can know what to tell him

"Um, we where looking at earrings in Nordstrom" he says trying to remember what all happened

"Well, we went to pay for our stuff and the cashier was being kinda homophobic, so you grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the store and then you kinda started to have a breakdown" I say leaving the part out about him hurting my wrist

"Oh," he says his smile fading quickly

"Denks" I say reaching out and touching his arm to comfort him, him flinching away slightly

"Yeah" he says putting on a fake smile

"How about we go back to the dorms" I say not wanting to see him sad

"Ok," he says, his eyes glossed over slightly

At the dorms 12:15pm
(Denki's POV)

When we get back to the dorms we went straight to Shin's dorm not saying a word to anyone else, instead staying in his dorm until the party started.
