Chapter Five| Uninvited Guest

"Hey (L/n)! How are you feeling?"

I couldn't help but smile at the broccoli haired boy as he came running to greet me at the door. "I'm feeling pretty good actually. Thanks for asking." My hand gently ruffled his soft curly locks earning a blush from his cheeks. So adorable.

"N-No problem! I'm glad you didn't get severely injured when you were fighting that guy. He seemed pretty strong but you were just as strong to fight him!" His fist balled up as he spoke earning a flattering smile to spread across my lips. It wasn't everyday I got praised for my abilities, as a matter of fact, I don't think I ever did.

"The fuck are you talking about? She wasn't strong, she passed out and the guy got away!" The familiar red orbs cascaded down on me as Bakugo walked by. Midoriya took offense to his harsh words, but I made sure to intervene before he did. "You're right, it took all of my energy just to knock him down. So starting now i'm going to train myself to become stronger."

Midoriya beamed at my determination while Bakugo on the other hand huffed in annoyance. "Who knows, maybe I'll be stronger than you." A mischievous grin was plastered on my face as I watched the back of his shoulders tense up. Instead of his usual burst of rage, he turned to face me calmly all while his eyebrow twitched in annoyance. "Listen here sunshine, you can train all you fucking want. But you'll never be better than me." His index finger harshly poked my forehead while I stared up at him, smiling like an idiot.

"Awe sunshine, is that your new nickname for me?" His eyes began to widen and his cheeks reddened at the realization, I couldn't help but snort out a laugh. "Everyone! Homeroom is about to start, stop talking and take your seats!" Iida came running in yelling. I playfully nudged Bakugo's shoulder as I headed towards my seat, a small smile tugged at my lips once I heard an enraged growl erupt from his throat. Maybe Bakugo wasn't so terribly bad.

Todoroki watched as I took my seat, why he was watching me I have no idea, but I smiled anyway. Though I wasn't expecting him to give a slight smile in return, it was shocking. "Is there something on my face?" Crap, he caught me staring. "Oh no nothing at all."

'Just utter handsomeness.' I giggled slightly at my thought when the classroom door slid open. "Morning." Everyone was shocked to see Aizawa sensei walk in covered in bandages and slings. He didn't seem like he should be out of the hospital so soon with injuries like that. Everyone began asking if he was alright as he made his way up front.

"My well-being doesn't matter. More importantly, the fight is not over yet." All of our eyes widened slightly, some even shuddered. "The U.A. sports festival is drawing near." Oh wow, an actual normal school event. "The sports festival is one of our biggest events. If you expect to go pro, then the path to your future will open up at this event. Homeroom is dismissed."

~X~

Stepping into my room a loud sigh had managed to escape between my lips. There's no point in waiting any longer, I should head out and do some training. I walked over to my dresser and began to change out of my uniform. A grimacing expression had made its way to my face as I looked at the full body mirror on my wall. My fingertips gently brushed against the yellowish purple bruising that scattered across my abdomen and right ribcage. Then they made their way across the thin scar that laid between my breasts.
