Merry Late Christmas(or whatever holiday you celebrate during this time of the year) and happy early new year(bc we all know 2020 sucked balls). I wanted to come back from the dead and write a short little update since it is Christmas!
THIS CHAPTER IS NOT A PART OF THE ACTUAL PLOT OF MY FANFICTION, SO WHATEVER I WRITE DOESN'T NECESSARILY APPLY TO THE REST OF THE WORK, OK? ok so don't attack me later... also a lot of grammar mistakes bc i obviously lack brain cells
Spend time with friends and family(safely ofc) and make sure to take care of yourselves~

"DAD WHERE DID YOU PUT THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS?!"
"I DIDN'T TOUCH THEM, PONYO!"
"LIAR."
"PONYO, I SWEAR I DIDN'T TOUCH THEM! IT WAS SHŌTA!"
A door somewhere in the house slammed open, "I HAVEN'T EVEN LEFT MY ROOM SINCE YESTERDAY!"
"THAT'S WHY YOU'RE SUSPICIOUS!"
Katherine pointed and glared at her dad, "I SAW YOU WALK OVER TO THE CHRISTMAS BOX YESTERDAY!"
"I SWEAR, I DIDN'T!" her dad screamed in protest, waving his hands around.
Aizawa walked to the living room in a hoodie and sweatpants with a glare displayed on his already unhappy face, "I SAW HIZASHI WALK OVER TO THE CHRISTMAS BOX, TOO!"
Hizashi continued to flail his arms and run around the living room like a child escaping the wrath of their mother, in this case, Aizawa was the mother holding the back scratcher.
"PONYOOOOO, I'M INNOCENT! DON'T YOU SEE SHŌTA'S EVIL GRIN PLASTERED ALL OVER HIS FACE?"
Katherine sprouted her wings menacingly and glared at her guardians, "Who. touched. my. christmas. lights."
Both adults froze in place and shook their heads in unison, "I didn't touch them."
Sighing, Katherine sat down on the couch and closed her eyes, "I was planning on putting up our Christmas decorations today since CHRISTMAS IS TOMORROW AND NO ONE IN THIS HOUSE DECORATES OR CLEANS OTHER THAN ME BUT ONE OF YOU MISPLACED THE CHRISTMAS LIGHTS AND WHILE I WAS AWAY, YOU GUYS DIDN'T EVEN HAVE A GOSH DANG TREE!"
The adults adverted their gazes from the furious sixteen year old girl and then the doorbell suddenly rang. Katherine groaned and walked to the front door to check who it was.
"DAD WHY THE HECK IS A PURPLE RACCOON ON OUR PORCH?!"
The door opened slightly and Katherine poked her head out to be face to face with a familiar purple haired weirdo.
Aizawa jogged to the door and opened it wide, inviting Shinso into the messy house. Shinso politely took his shoes off and bowed to the adults before turning to a confused Katherine and bonking her on the head.
"I'M NOT A RACCOON, ANGEL!"
"DADDDD, SHINSO HIT ME!"
Her dad sat shocked that a boy his daughter's age entered his home freely, "S-Shōta, what is he doing here? Why did he just hit Ponyo?"
"I invited him over for Christmas eve dinner," Aizawa said bluntly, unaware of the anger gathering in his friend's gut, watching the two teenagers go back and forth bonking each other on the head.
"Uncle Aiza, you can't just invite people over without consulting me and Dad."
"Sorry kid, but we both know your dad would've said no..." Aizawa and Katherine led Shinso into the living room.
"Angel, your house looks so... not Christmas," Shinso said while looking around the living room and seeing an empty cardboard box with the words 'Christmas box' on it.
Katherine shot an icy glare at her dad and uncle, "It's because we don't have many decorations."
"Why not?" Shinso asked while sitting down on the comfy couch.
"These two grown ups didn't celebrate Christmas while I was in America unless you count watching hallmark movies and buying things for themselves," Katherine rolled her eyes and sat next to Shinso only to be picked up by her father and sat back down on the beanbag chair next to the tv, the furthest place from Shinso.
Shinso looked confused, but dismissed his teacher's odd behavior as him being, well, himself.
Aizawa on the other hand, knew exactly what was going on and suggested that he and Hizashi go to the store and buy last minute decorations. Of course, Hizashi followed him because crossing Aizawa while he was even a little pissed off would result in death.
After the adults left, Shinso and Katherine remained seated in silence until Katherine asked, "You've never been to my house before, right?"
Shinso nodded, "I mean, have you met your dad?"
This made Katherine giggle, "C'mon, I want to show you my room! It has led lights, posters, and I spent a lot of time decorating it when I moved back in."
"Alright, I've always been curious what your room looked like, Angel," Shinso smiled softly as Katherine dragged him up the stairs and into a dark room.
She turned the lights on and shouted, "TADA~" while doing jazz hands like a five year old.
Her room was smaller than he expected, but it wasn't tiny. She had led lights running across two walls and posters neatly organized on those walls. She had pictures from her time in America and pictures that she took with her friends and family after moving to Japan.
She had a desk and two bookshelves filled to the brim with books, souvenirs, and CDs. There were speakers dotted around her room and a colorful gaming pc on her desk. On her windowsill, she was growing three small cacti and an orchid.
Shinso laughed, "There's so much going on, but it's pretty much exactly what I expected."
"Is that a good thing?"
He tapped his index finger on his chin and teased, "Is it, Angel?"
"I don't know, that's why I'm asking you!"
"Hmm... Hey is that a panda stuffed animal?"
"DON'T IGNORE MY QUESTIONS AND DON'T TOUCH GERALD!"
Shinso froze next to her bed holding the stuffed panda. He turned around to see a bright red Katherine fuming and laughed whole heartedly, "YOU NAMED IT GERALD?!"
Feeling her face grow hotter by the second, Katherine stomped over to where he was standing and laughing like a maniac, "GIVE HIM BACK!"
"I think I'll keep Gerald to myself," Shinso stuck his tongue out and held the stuffed animal in the air where Katherine couldn't reach it.
"NO FAIR YOU STUPIDLY TALL GIANT!" she jumped up and down multiple times, trying to snatch her beloved stuffed animal from her friend, but failed.
However, Shinso was having the time of his life, "Aw~ poor Angel can't even reach Gerald on her tippy toes~"
"SHUT UP YOU OVERGROWN CATERPILLAR! I'M GONNA CHUCK YOU OFF A CLIFF IF YOU-" she was interrupted by the feeling of falling down and indeed, with her luck, she was falling.
Katherine had jumped for her stuffed animal and accidentally jumped forward too much, hitting Shinso. This caused for him to start falling and Katherine, who was holding his shoulder in an attempt to be able to reach higher, to fall with him.
Both of them didn't even scream, they just fell in silence and landed on her bed with a muffled groan and a "owie".
Shinso opened his eyes to see Katherine on top of him.
Katherine opened her eyes to see Shinso under her.
Both of the teenagers closed their eyes as if they were trying to ignore the close proximity of their bodies.
That obviously didn't work.
Katherine opened her eyes again to see Shinso's messy purple hair and his dark circles under his mesmerizing violet eyes.
Shinso opened his eyes again to see Katherine's dark brown hair created a curtain around his face and allowing him to study the cute little scar on her nose from when Bakugou blew up her cute face during the spots festival.
Both of the teenagers laid staring at each other before Katherine scrambled off of Shinso and dusted herself off while coughing awkwardly. Shinso on the other hand, took his time sitting up on her bed completely dazed.
She scratched her head, "Okay... let's go get something to eat from the kitchen?"
He silently nodded and followed her back downstairs to the kitchen where they got food to eat on the couch until the adults came back home.
Definitely top 5 most awkward two hours of Shinso's life.
