Exploding Through Dimensions

Chapter 20: To The Hot Springs We go!

"I heard Kirishima talking about it." Mina casually shrugged. "Mr. Aizawa and Present Mic I guess caught him fighting a couple of other students after hours the previous night."

"Again?! But why?" She confusingly asked, thinking that he apparently didn't learn his lesson after his fight with Deku first year.

"Good question. Maybe you should ask him."

Something about the way she sounded made Uraraka interest pique. "But Mina-" Just as she was about to ask again she was swiftly interrupted by the quick knock on the door followed by the door slamming open to reveal an overly energetic Momiji.

"Guten morgen! Rise and shine!" Momiji eagerly waved his arms out, "I assumed everyone was going to need some breakfast to start your day and with a friendly face no less!" he winked.

"You know what..." Sharing an amused look with Mina, Uraraka vigorously nodded. "Breakfast sounds good."

"Ok then come on!" Momiji urgently ushered them out. "Hurry up and I will get breakfast started along with Tohru. But try not to take an hour to get ready because I wouldn't want you to miss out on anything!" he shouted as he ran down the hall and down the stairs.

"Well he seems to have enough energy for all of us." Mina giggled.

"I like him. Momiji seems nice and maybe we both should take notes from his book." Uraraka thoughtfully placed a finger to her chin.

"True, seems like there's nothing that can get under that little bunny skin." Mina agreed. "Plus, my decision-making skills closely resemble that of a squirrel when crossing the street lately. So why not!"

Giggling, both girls quickly began preparing themselves for the day ahead until they decided to head on down for breakfast.

"Ooh what is that wonderful smell?" Mina practically sprinted down the steps closely followed by Uraraka.

"It smells so yummy!" Uraraka raised her nose to get a good whiff of the aroma filling the air until a familiar figure caught her attention. "Momiji?" Uraraka questioningly saw him waiting for them at the bottom of the stairs.

"Hey! There you two are! I was going to surprise everyone with a light healthy breakfast..." he slowly began to pout as he turned his head towards the kitchen. "But it seems it'll have to be another time."

She wasn't entirely sure what she was expecting when they stopped next to him, but seeing both Tohru and Bakugo cooking together in the kitchen definitely was not it.

"By the time I managed to come down here I figured I'd see Tohru, but I was rather surprised to see Bakugo here too." Momiji informed them as he let his eyes follow their calm movement. "They make a pretty good team don't you think?"

Trailing her eyes from where Bakugo continued to silently chop vegetables to where Tohru was happily humming away on the opposite side of the kitchen made something in her stomach sink.

"Seems like it." Mina quietly admitted following Momiji's line of view. "Although it doesn't surprise me, Bakugo's always been a pretty good cook."

"Ja, I think so too!" Momiji grinned. "Very surprising indeed."

"At least some people think so..." Bakugo mumbled under his breath.

Call her crazy but somehow Uraraka couldn't help but feel that jab was directly aimed at her. Was he seriously still upset about that thing that happened with Yuno?!

"Oh..." Pressing her lips together Mina could feel the tension in the air slowly building up, but hopefully it could wait until perhaps after breakfast since she hadn't had a decent meal in what seemed like forever.
