Fandom These Shining Stories we (share) | A MHA RP

Even though Momiji had mentioned All Might would be around, she still had considered it could be a trick or that All Might would be otherwise working. But seeing him attend made her quite happy so she hoped they could have some fun together. This whole gathering was harmless enough right? She walked over to All Might as Momiji began to explain the game but it was pretty clear it wasn't a game you really lost at unless you were Mineta and gross. It was a funny way to get people close together, in the literal sense. Mela rubbed her neck, as she sat next to All Might. "Hey, I'm glad you could make it. Momiji-kun mentioned you might be here."

But it was clear that All Might hadn't been given all of the pertinent information. Either way, he was here now and she was glad because if there was anyone she wanted to be trapped in a closet with, it was her new boyfriend and certainly not someone else. "I think I will stay the night but I'll have to see what the sleeping arrangements look like." She said, having a feeling they'd all be sleeping here which didn't sound very private or comfortable. But if All Might could stay, she may just cuddle on over with him. Mela inched a little closer to All Might as they group settled around in a makeshift circle.

At the request of someone going first, Izuku raised his hand. Mela smiled politely at him as he spun the bottle but it landed on Uraraka-san. Mela watched them go and glanced to All Might for a moment, "Gee, I hope I get my boyfriend for this game." She teased him lightly. Of course she did hope that. She would also take Ruka but other than that, she didn't want to be trapped in a closet. Maybe she could have a nice one on one chat with Todoroki? As Izuku and Ochako came out, Mela winked at the blushing pair before Bakugo and...Ruka went. Mela gulped. This could end in so many ways. A lot of fiery ways. "I hope they're okay in there..." Mela frowned to All Might, expecting the building to catch on fire.

With so many of their classmates, the exchange students plus Namie-san, it did feel like quite the party. Shoto was impressed the boy could pull something off at such short notice but he had to wonder if that hadn't been something he was planning for a while. Shoto didn't think it mattered too much. If the exchange students wanted to have a party to thank UA for hosting them, he wouldn't complain. The Sohma clan were an interesting bunch and he was just glad he didn't have to worry about Yuki-san. No no, Yuki had Tohru, just as he had Ruka. As he listened to the rules, Shoto tilted his head. Was that really a game? How did one win? Or lose? Maybe it was more of activity than a game?

He smiled to Ruka, hoping he got paired up with her because if he got anyone else, well the time in the closet would be mostly awkward silence. But if he had Ruka, he would be able to spend a lot of time with her, making sure she was very entertained but then they had to be a bit quiet too since it seemed like the rest of the group would be listening in. Heh. For now he would go along with it and cross his fingers he or Ruka got one another, even if odds weren't really in their favor. When Midoriya and Uraraka went in, Shoto made a mental note of the time about five minutes. But it was possible Momiji could adjust the time since he was the keeper of the timer.

As Bakugo grabbed the bottle, a sense of dread fell over Shoto. Why did he have a bad feeling about this? Aaand it landed on Ruka. He didn't think people in relationships should have to go in with those they weren't seeing. It wasn't fair! But he couldn't really stop them before the door closed. Shoto frowned and told himself that Ruka wouldn't do anything and if Bakugo valued his life, he wouldn't do anything either. No, but them being in such confined quarters did ruffle Shoto's feathers a bit. They'd probably just bicker and push the other around a bit. Still, he was a bit jealous that Bakugo got Ruka all to himself. But with Shoto outside, he could at least plan what he'd do when he did get Ruka alone in there himself.

- - -

Hehe. He seemed a bit grumpy. She didn't make him wait too long. But it was sweet that he did wait. In all honesty, Ayumi expected Shota to just give up and leave or pretend he didn't know why she was standing in front of him. But so far, tonight was going pretty well and she told herself to just take things easy and go with the flow. "I'm glad you're well. I actually have a few potions I could have given you if you were still hungover." She should have left some by his bed but she forgot. Oh well, he as fine now and that's what mattered. When he got on and moved his arms around her, another triumphant blush filled her cheeks.

It felt really good to have his arms around her, even if they were there for the sole purpose of not falling off. She smiled at his chin o her shoulder as she lifted them off the ground. She found it quite cute for him to go by her hero name. Maybe she should start using his own hero name...Eraserhead was it? That was actually a pretty funny name and she heard Hizashi bragging about giving it to him when they were in school together. As she flew around and looked for any signs of trouble down below, she heard Aizawa mention there wasn't a lot to do tonight. He was right. For a Friday, it was pretty low key which was good. Criminal activity hadn't been too bad lately.

At the mention of food afterwards, her eyes lit up. Like a date? No, not like a date, she corrected herself. Like two co-workers sharing a meal. Right. "Sure, I could really go for some pancakes." She mentioned, already a little hungry. Flying around, she leaned over slightly, the side of her face brushing against his. Ayumi quickly corrected herself and flew over a large park and hoovered, enjoying the view. "This city can be quite pretty come nightfall." She sighed softly as she flew down close to the trees and reached out and brushed her hands along the green leaves. "There's just something about the moonlight and the darkness, it's a bit romantic, don't you think?" She smiled, teasing lightly.

- - -

As he talked with Eijiro, he kept wondering if he should text Namie or go meet her but ah, she'd find her way right? He was worrying too much, too nervous. When he felt arms hook around him, he almost fell over out of sheer surprise."Namie-chan!" He let out a few shocks, mostly it was his body's defenses kicking in. He held her close and kissed her lightly on the lips, not wanting to get too excited in front of everyone heh. "I'm so glad you could make it." He loved his friends but he wanted to spend some time with Namie too. They were just starting to date and navigate that path together, it was a very exciting and new time for the blond. He wanted to enjoy every cute moment with Namie.

Though Denki had seen a few films, he had to wonder if they would get to have any beer or anything like that. Heh. But since All Might showed up, they weren't going to have too much of a good time it seemed. But one of these days, Denki would love to have a real American kind of party, the ones he saw high schoolers having who lived in The States. Those parties were always crazy and looked so fun. And they'd be all the more fun with his new girl on his arm, looking so cute right? At the notion of a game, Denki's face lit up. Was it a card game or maybe something physical? Ah yes, a different kind of physical though eheh. He liked this game a lot and he wasn't even playing yet.

Holding back a giggle, the boy sat on one side of Namie and put his arm around her, bringing her close to him. Yeah he had a girlfriend! A few of his classmates didn't seem surprised though maybe that was because some of them already assumed Namie and Denki were a thing back on I Island. "I hope we get each other." He whispered into her ear. When Ruka went in with Katsuki, he looked to Shoto rather surprised. Was he okay with that? Denki's grip on Namie tightened, very glad he didn't get Namie. Phew. He kissed Namie's check a few times, deciding it didn't hurt to warm up a little first. "I missed you today." He couldn't help but admit a bit shyly. Was that okay to tell her or was that clingy?

AiAi AiAi
 
Oh yes, sleeping arrangements are very important at a party like this. Sure, there were no drinks involved, but he didn't like to imagine what could happen between raging hormonal teenagers. Nope, he didn't need to know nor did he want to know. As long as Mela was safe and away from the boys, he was fine. He smiled a bit as she scooted closer to his side. Ah, was he allowed to put an arm around her...? He couldn't help but move his arm so that it stayed resting against her waist, keeping her close to his side. He nodded his head in agreement to her words, wondering if he can offer her to stay at his place if the arrangements weren't as planned? But something told him he won't be able to get away from here as easily as he hopes. But when Momiji Shounen moved up to stand in the center as he began to explain the game, All Might can feel his face slowly turning red. W-W-Wait! What sort of game is that!?

He looked around and noted no one was objecting minus for a few such as Iida Shounen and Bakugou Shounen. Yes! Go and tell the young lad that was not a good idea! They even had a teacher involved in this game, but it seemed like most didn't mind. When Momiji Shounen spoke to the two objecting, he was surprised to see them comply so willingly. Just what on earth did the boy tell them!? Somehow, All Might began to doubt that Momiji Shounen's quirk is super speed. It must be persuasion or something! He glanced over at Mela to see her reaction about the game, but her words only further brightened his face as he can only nod his head shyly. Yes...he would like that as well. He gave her a soft smile as he murmured out, "yes...I agree..." or er well with his girlfriend though! Not a boyfriend. Aha.

But when Midoriya Shounen volunteered first, All Might was suddenly quite conscious and worried. He didn't want Mela to be stuck in a closet with some other guy, but it can't be helped if it happened, but the way Midoriya Shounen would look at Mela from time and time again made All Might a tad concerned. But no no! He trusted Mela, he just..wasn't sure about Midoriya Shounen. So when it wasn't Mela who was his partner for the game, All Might was relieved. After about five minutes, the game continued and to his surprise, it was Bakugou Shounen. He thought the spiky blonde didn't want to go? But as the bottle landed on Ruka, All Might felt a strange gust of wind before it landed on Ruka...hm? He glanced over at Momiji Shounen but didn't see anything wrong. Was that just his imagination? He placed a reassuring hand on Mela's shoulder as he told her, "I'm sure it'll be fine..." or so he hoped. He didn't have Aizawa-kun's quirk to cancel out any flames. Urgh.

The sounds that he heard was questionable, but when the two fiery students exited the room, All Might can only look over and see how Todoroki Shounen was feeling. Though Momiji gave them no room as he began the next round. Oh dear, this game sounded like it's going to go on for a while. He blinked as he noticed the next pair was something he did not see coming. He looked over at Mela before giving her a slight smile. Yes, he had nothing to worry about. Right?

- - -

This was not happening. Why did this happen to her always!? She stared at the closed door of the closet in disbelief while Katsuki stood right behind her. The closet looked big from the outside, but there were many things in here and so there wasn't as much room as she hoped. Feeling him bump into her, Ruka's shock turned to annoyance as she snapped over at Katsuki, "can't you move further back?" A growl was heard as Katsuki was in the same boat as Ruka. They didn't want to be here! But he supposed it was better than to be stuck with say Todoroki for example. He let out a slight scoff as he told her, "you should be glad it's me and not that Grapehead." Ruka scrunched her nose, but Mineta was away for the exchange program, thankfully...but even still that thought was not one she wanted to imagine. She let out a soft sigh, wondering how Shoto was on the other side. Urgh, it's not like she wanted to be here!

When the pair somehow found a way to move, Ruka let out a yelp when he stepped on her foot, "watch it you Bakatsuki!" Ruka snapped at him while Katsuki let out an irritated sound in the back of his throat, "well maybe if you stopped squirming around!" The two began their usual bickering but as Katsuki moved back, he bumped into a shelf and several things fell on them which earned a low groan of pain from Katsuki as Ruka bumped into him. The two were in a tangled mess as Ruka let out a sound herself. That hurt...and it was dark. Damn it. "Argh! I can't see a damn thing in here!" Katsuki yelled out in annoyance as he lifted his hand up. Ruka could feel him moving and let out a sound, "wait no baka!" The two continued their struggle inside which honestly felt like forever. But as Katsuki made a move to light things up a bit, Ruka shifted and placed her hand over his, as a few her flames coming out in her panic.

Katsuki let out a hiss before the two finally settled down. Or well they tried. It was hard to even figure out where things were and whatnot. She wished she was stuck in here with Shoto or heck even All Might would do at this rate! Wait no...he was sort of big, she didn't want to get stuck. Her flames would do no good in lighting things up and so the two were stuck in this predicament for now. Sitting in between Katsuki's legs as they decided to just sit down before they became a real tangled mess, Ruka glared over at Katsuki, "why do you have to be so damn competitive in everything?" She let out a huff as the two finally settled down in a quiet peace...or as peaceful as it could get between them. But with Katsuki making a jabbing comment, the two were at it once again.

Unable to take it any longer, Katsuki stood up with an annoyed roar as he once again bumped into something, this time hitting his head. Ruka's eyes widened as she told him, "stop moving around baka!" But it was too late, things were falling once again and now it was a mess. Urgh. The pair were squabbling and making a ruckus inside with Katsuki throwing Ruka onto his shoulders to shut her up. As the door opened up, Ruka let out a sigh of relief but realizing that he hasn't let her down yet, Ruka struggled, "B-Baka! Let me down!" Katsuki ignored her as he walked past a grinning Momiji and out into the open once more. Ah, sweet freedom. He walked back over to the couch where he dropped Ruka onto Shoto's lap before taking a seat next to them. Katsuki's shirt had a hole thanks to a certain flame user. Ruka glared over at Katsuki before looking up at Shoto. She gave him a big pout before wrapping her arms around his neck and nuzzling her face into the crook of his neck, "ahhh it was just awful! I missed you!" Ruka whined out to Shoto. She missed him.

- - -

She wanted pancakes? Well, he supposed they can. He wasn't really picky about what to eat after all. He nodded his head, "sure, pancakes it is." Whatever she wanted really because, in the end, he would probably just make her pick. As they flew over the city, Shota looked out to see the lights slowly glowing as the sun has set for the day, bringing out the moon instead. The glow from here made things almost shine and he was slightly envious of Ayumi and All Might who can easily enjoy this view by flying up high into the sky unlike him who'd have to climb to see such a view. As he was staring down at the city below, he heard Ayumi's voice murmur out close to him as he felt her face brush against his. Ah...what was that? His heart felt strange, but can he really?

He still loved Mela very much...so was he even allowed to feel like this? Maybe it was because he hasn't had much action for a few weeks now...yes, that must be it. Stupid male hormones, even after passing the teenage years it's still fairly active. Urgh. Flying over a park, Shota blinked a few times as he saw them get down closer to the trees. He watched Ayumi as she admired the view as he murmured out, "romantic huh..." guess that was true. Though he wondered why he was staring at her while saying that. Ugh...stop it Shota. But it wasn't like he can't look for love again...the question was, did he want to? Did he want to fall for someone again? What if it just repeated itself all over again and he was left heartbroken again? He was pretty sure his heart can't take any more of that...but then what? Was he really going to just be content alone, again? Having had a taste of love, Shota wasn't sure if he was able to handle being alone anymore. Urgh, how troublesome.

Letting out a faint sigh, Shota pulled her in closer as he murmured out, "watch it or you'll fall..." or he can make her fall using his quirk, but no no. That means he will fall as well and he didn't want that. Perhaps for a date going to the park at night would be rather romantic. He bit back a smirk as he asked her, "what? Do you want a date in the park? Right now?" He lifted a brow to her. Would he mind that? He wasn't sure...but he wasn't...unwilling that much was certain for the dark-haired pro hero. Somehow, around Ayumi, he felt a bit more at ease. Maybe it was because she was a fellow pro hero like him or maybe because she was closer to him in age, but he felt like he could talk to her more freely without having to worry about other things. With Mela, he was always on alert as he wasn't sure if she'd like someone else who was younger and more suited for her and the likes. But with Ayumi, well they were both adults so they can just handle things just fine...right? Okay, now he wasn't making any sense anymore and he knew he should just shut it.

- - -

Smiling as Denki pulled her closer, Namie scooted closer to his side, enjoying his sweet and gentle warmth. She could literally feel Eijiro's smirk slapping the side of her face, but she didn't mind. Not when she was finally able to be with Denki~! As Momiji explained the rule to the game, which wasn't much really, she couldn't help but grin. Oh, she liked this game a lot...or well she hoped she can get Denki, then she would like the game. But if not, she supposed she'll just have to take that time to be friends with everyone else. Hearing his whispered words, Namie felt a slight blush dust her cheeks as she looked up at him. With a soft smile, she nodded her head as she nuzzled against his face, "yes! I hope so too hehe." She wasn't shy about expressing her feelings for Denki. Nope! Not when they were finally a couple~!

As the games began, Namie was surprised to see Bakugou and Ruka go next, ah but wasn't Ruka with Shoto? She wondered how things worked but Momiji didn't give any exclusive deals about couples allowed to sit this game out. But Momiji was right. They were just in the closet, but nothing had to happen...it was up to the two in the closet to make that decision. She felt Denki give her a few sweet kisses, something that made her attention turn to Denki immediately. She giggled against his kiss, leaning up to kiss him on the cheek as well. At his words, Namie was close to just sitting on his lap and kissing him on the lips, but no no Namie, behave. She was around others and they weren't alone...not yet at least. Hehe.

Smiling up at him, she told Denki happily, "I missed you too! I was so excited to come today hehe." But at the sudden noises heard from the closet, all eyes turned to see what was going on. Namie blinked a few times, that could be taken in so many ways. But upon seeing the two exit the closet, she noticed that both weren't looking quite happy. Seeing Ruka on Bakugou's shoulder made her lift a brow. What happened in there? It was a mess inside and so Momiji using his speed cleaned things up a bit, taking a few things out so there was more room inside. She wrapped an arm around his waist as she cuddled into his side, who was to be the next victim of Momiji? Namie smiled as she can see the boy had many plans. What an interesting party~ Hehe

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela wanted to lean against All Might and curl up against him but she was sure that would be weird right? Sure, everyone was a fan of All Might, whether some wanted to admit it or not, but she was sure it would be weird if she did it. Eheh. Plus All Might was pretty popular, if she tried getting a bit close, she was sure a few other students would want to talk and she couldn't let him get distracted too much. So she focused on the sounds coming from the closet, glaring at it as if to will Bakugo to keep his hands to himself and his mouth closed. She didn't want him hurting Ruka and coming out and claiming it was an accident or she'd break his hand in so many different places hehe.

When Ruka emerged finally, Mela gave her friend a worried smile, hoping Bakugo didn't do anything in there! But she noticed the burn hole and then realized Bakugo was carrying Ruka and she let out a growl. "Oy, firecracker face! Put her down!" Mela growled, pointing a finger at him. Why didn't she bring her bow and arrows?! She had her hands though, those would be just fine right? And teeth. She was perfectly armed. But thankfully it seemed like Shoto had Ruka back in his arms. She didn't think Shoto did enough to stop Ruka from getting hurt though. Why did he relent and let Bakugo trap her in a closet?! Mela gave Shoto a look as she grabbed the bottle.

"My turn!" Mela said, she was going to get Bakugo next and claw his face off. Yes, yes. Because...that was what a hero must do to avenge a hurt friend. Right? she spun the bottle and crossed her fingers. Bakugo. Or All Might. Or Bakugo. She sat back and looked at who it was pointing out. "Whaaaat? Todoroki?!" Urgh, no! Why not Ruka at least?! She looked to All Might and smiled slightly. Oh, her boyfriend had nothing to worry about. Shoto had something to worry about. "I'd love to chat with my best friend's boyfriend." She said sweetly, giving him a devilish smirk as she jumped up and gave Ruka a thumbs up, "Don't worry about a thing, Rukie-chan."

If Shoto as so much touched her wrong, he'd lose a finger. Heh. Or something lower. Once inside, Mela fidgeted and gave Shoto a look, her eyes trying to adjust to the darkness. After about four minutes, they came out, Shoto returned to Ruka and held her close. Now Tohru decided to give it a go and it landed on Yuki-san. The two were in the closet for an awfully long time and once they came out, both were blushing and seemed slightly out of breath. "Awww you two, how sweeeet!" Mela teased them. Something happened between them, obviously. Smiling to All Might, she was hoping she could get him alone one of these turns. Yes, she'd like that a bit too much. She wanted to prove to her sweet number one hero that she was by far, his biggest fan. Ahaha. She could be very convincing there.

- - -

His heart raced as he listened intently, trying to figure out what was going on. It sounded chaotic and angry. What was Bakugo doing?! Shoto knew Ruka could handle herself but he still wasn't sure if he trusted Bakugo. Who could resist Ruka? Shoto sure as hell couldn't eheh. All he could do was wait anxiously, eyes never leaving the closed door. His eyes lit up when the door finally opened but he couldn't help but frown at Ruka slung over Bakugo's shoulder. Was that really necessary Bakugo? He made a face until she was dumped on his lap. Wrapping his arms around her, Shoto held onto Ruka tightly. What had happened? He frowned as he looked at her shirt and kissed her head.

"Aw, I missed you too, love." Shoto said softly, smoothing her hair out as he kissed her softly on the lips before he heard Mela call out to him and his eyes narrowed at the bottle pointing directly at him. Oh dear. Shoto set Ruka down and made a face as he would prefer to be trapped in a closet with her rather than her friend. Hopefully Ruka knew that as he was dragged off by a sinister looking brunette. Once inside, he placed his hands on the wall behind Mela on either side of her head, not even going to try putting them anywhere else heh. "You've been staying over a lot." Mela huffed as she fidgeted and folded her arms across her chest which was a good enough barrier between them.

"Do you love her?" "What? Of course I do." Shoto replied quickly. He could hear a grumble. What other answer was she expecting? "Even if she wasn't your soulmate?" Mela pressed. "Yes." Shoto said. "Really?" Mela narrowed his eyes as him in the darkness. "Yes." Shoto lowered his head slightly. "I'm not trying to take her away from you." Shoto said, wondering if she felt a bit threatened by him. Ruka hadn't dated anyone before so he could sort of understand Mela's protective nature combined with Ruka's family history. "I love her, I'm always going to love her no matter what. Nothing is changing that. But she loves you too." Shoto sighed. "I know you've been through a lot this past month..."

She lost her own soulmate, he couldn't imagine losing Ruka. "But we're both rooting for Ruka. You're not losing her, trust me. You probably want to be a pro to help fight alongside her right? I'm not going to get in the way of you two but I'm not going to leave her side either." Shoto told Mela as he felt her reach out and pull his hair though it wasn't as hard as he expected. "Hmph fine. But if you make her cry or hurt her in any way and I'd have no regrets shooting an arrow through your neck." Mela whispered into his ear. Shoto gulped, not doubting that at all. "U-understood." Her grip loosened before her hand dropped, the door opening. Shoto headed out after Mela and sat back with Ruka, sighing. "Mela-san cares quite a lot for you." He smiled to her, trying to relax as he held onto her waist. Ah women could be scary sometimes.

- - -

Being in the park brought back some fun she and some guy, the name escaped her, had a month ago. Ah, but it wasn't this park. But her mind wasn't really on that guy. Nope, flings were a fleeting fancy, if anything at all. And when Shota pulled her close, her mind suddenly went blank for a moment. What was he doing? She blushed and scowled slightly, wondering if he was worried about her quirk. Maybe she could sit them in a tree someplace? He...he wasn't really worried though right? No, he was just teasing her. Yeah. So why was she suddenly so nervous? Ayumi was about to tell him to shut up when he mentioned a date...right here? Right now? W-what?!

Was he serious? Or was this some tricky hypothetical question? Ayumi gripped her broom for some stability as she flew them towards a sturdy tree and grabbed him before she hopped onto a thick branch, sitting him beside her. Next, she leaned back to set her broom on another few branches behind her, knowing if she dropped it, she'd make a hole heh. And she needed to always be armed. A pro hero couldn't be so careless. Ayumi turned to him now that she could she look at him directly. So was he joking or not? "A date with you?" She asked him. "Right now?" Maybe she was just hallucinating. Was that something that he wanted? Because if he was pulling her leg, she'd murder him.

Ayumi leaned a bit closer to Aizawa, her eyes studying his face. She wasn't his soulmate. That fact nagged at her now, tabl about terrible timing. But was Shota really interested or just latching out for someone? No, he wouldn't be that cold? Besides, they got along pretty well, despite their rough edges right? And by now he had to know better than to lead her on right? "Boy, this is out of nowhere and totally unprofessional. We work together-" She cut herself off, unable to hold keep a straight face as she closed the gap and kissed him, bringing a hand to cup the side of his face to deepen the kiss. People kissed on dates right? Ayumi pulled back after a few more extended moments. "See? I don't bite, I wait until the second date for that." She smirked.

Having Namie by his side was what mattered. Of course Denki would like to sneak off and go back to his dorm room at some point. Maybe Eijiro might be helpful and find an opening for him to leave with Namie because he'd much rather cuddle up with her in private. Especially if they were really sleeping over. He was worried Namie might not be comfortable on the floor and there were only a few couches. Yeah, so it was obvious she'd be better in his bed right? Yes, what kind of boyfriend would Denki be if he had his girl sleep on the floor? That wasn't romantic or cute or probably hygienic. "I'd hate to be here alone." Well if he was, he'd probably just go off and find Namie somehow.

So he was happy he could hang with everyone and show off his girl properly now. His eyes lingering to Ruka and Todoroki and then to Mela and Todoroki. He shook his head, not wanting to imagine that pairing. He turned his attention back to Namie, his arms still coiled around her tightly. He wouldn't mind bringing her into his lap but Kyoka would surely smack him for not behaving in public. Denki was new to the dating scene, he couldn't help but want to be extra touchy with his cute girlfriend. Ah but patience. Soon he could do everything in the privacy of a erm closet? Sure, he'll take it! He watched as the two came out and it was Sohma-san and Honda-san's turn. He looked to Namie, trying to silently assure her that they would soon have a chance to cozy up too.

Denki felt so happy in this moment. This was what couples had to always feel right? A warmth in their heart that just wouldn't go away. Denki was so glad he had someone to call his, someone he could spend time with and do nothing or do something super fun. Namie really was so sweet and perfect and he hated how long it took to fully dawn on him. "You should give it a go." He nudged her as the two came out of the closet finally. "I bet you have a magic touch. And some lucky guy will get to have you all to himself ehehe." He teased her, hoping she spun it and landed it on him. Yes, then he could show Namie just how much he missed her today.

AiAi AiAi
 
All Might winced as he heard a few loud sounds coming from the closet as Bakugou Shounen and Kurotsuki Shoujo were in there. It felt like an awfully long time and with each crashing sound and yells, it made him a bit concerned. Surely, things were fine, right? As Momiji Shounen finally went over and let the two out, All Might peered into the closet curiously and was surprised at the mess the two made in such a short amount of time. He watched with slightly wide eyes as Bakugou Shounen dumped Kurotsuki Shoujo onto Todoroki Shounen's lap. Hearing Mela yelling at Bakugou Shounen, All Might can only watch helplessly. He was positive even if he did try to restrain Mela, she would still find a way to yell at Bakugou Shounen. He couldn't blame Mela though...that was a bit tough to watch and endure. So when Mela jumped up at the opportunity to go next, All Might jumped slightly.

His face turned red as he could hear his heart beating loudly in his chest. Ah, he hoped it will land on him if Bakugou and Ruka got each other when they sat next to each other, it was possible for it to happen between him and Mela, right? It was totally not weird, right? As he watched the bottle spin, he noticed a sudden gleam in Momiji Shounen's eyes before it disappeared in an instant. Huh? Was he seeing things? All Might looked curiously over at Momiji Shounen but at Mela's sudden outburst, his attention shifted to who the bottle was pointing to. He blinked a few times, Todoroki Shounen? Seeing the glee in Mela's eyes and tone, he felt a bit bad for Todoroki Shounen. He knew there was nothing to worry about, but even then the idea of his girlfriend in a small space with another guy was a bit unnerving, but he could trust Todoroki Shounen. And if not, the way Todoroki was only fixated on Ruka would reassure him. After a few minutes, the pair came back out.

He watched Todoroki hurry back to Ruka while Mela came back to his side. He smiled down at her as he lightly wrapped an arm around her. He could tell she had her fun. He chuckled slightly as he asked her, "did you have fun?" He gave her a soft smile while the soft green-haired girl went next. Though at the sudden noise, he can only assume things weren't going to plan for a few of them, or mainly for the electric blonde. He can only chuckle slightly as he watched each pair go one after the other. Meanwhile, he just enjoyed having Mela beside him as his hand was lightly rubbing her arm in a soothing manner. Perhaps he should go next?

- - -

Ruka was just happy to be back in Shoto's arms. Being stuck in a small room with Katsuki is a nightmare, though the blonde did have a good point. Anyone was better than Mineta, that was for sure. As Mela declared to go next, Ruka stayed seated in Shoto's lap, enjoying her boyfriend's hand running through her hair. She blinked when she saw the bottle pointing towards her and Shoto, well she supposed that would be Shoto's turn then? She sat back down next to Katsuki as she watched Mela head in first looking rather excited. She gave Shoto a smile, hoping to encourage him that everything will be fine. Hopefully, Mela behaves and doesn't go threatening her boyfriend or anything like that. After a few minutes, the pair emerged and things looked to be just fine. That was good....but with Shoto hugging onto her, Ruka couldn't help but wonder what Mela said to him exactly. She pats Shoto's hair gently while sitting in between his legs, this was comfy, nothing inappropriate, right?

As Namie went next, Ruka wondered who would be next. Soon Namie left the closet with a calm looking Haru, much to everyone's surprise and then Momo decided to go next. When the bottle landed on Shoto...again, Ruka pouted slightly. Why does everyone get Shoto but her? Oh, but she hasn't gone just yet. Perhaps she'll go next. Maybe. But seeing Shoto go in the closet with another girl other than Mela was something Ruka felt a bit odd about. She trusted Shoto, very much so, but she knew just how attractive Shoto was as well. Ah, but she also trusted Momo too, but still~! Her heart was a mixture of confusion but Ruka knew that Shoto was her's and that's all that mattered in the end. Their bond together was strong and not something that will break just like that. After a few minutes, the pair emerged with Momo looking a tad too red for Ruka's liking. She blinked over curiously at Momo but then turned to Shoto as he came back to her side. She smiled as she wrapped an arm around him, pecking his cheek as she murmured softly into his ear, "I missed you~"

What was he saying? He honestly hadn't a clue what he was saying anymore. Before Shota can say anything else to change the topic, Ayumi flew them to a tree and she dragged him off the broom and onto the branch. He gave her a slight glare, he could have done that himself just fine. Sitting down next to her, he looked out to see they were quite high up, but it was a nice view. He looked to the side at her to see her facing him. What? Was what with that look? When she repeated the question, he just blinked at her. Huh? Well...he supposed a date wouldn't hurt anyone...right? Feeling her lean closer, Shota was tempted to just lean back as he had no clue what she had in mind. Did he just say something wrong? Well..she was the one who placed the whole date thing into his mind, to begin with! It wasn't his fault he couldn't get her out of his mind!....Ah...he just...did he just admit to that?

When she began to ramble on about being unprofessional and whatnot, Shota opened his mouth to retaliate when she closed what little gap was left between them...and kissed him. As she deepened the kiss, Shota's hands twitched, tempted to just bring her closer for some reason. The kiss was...electric. It sent a shocking sensation through him and it made him crave for more. Ah, just what was he doing? Did he even like Ayumi? Well, he wouldn't let her kiss him if he didn't he supposed, but still. As they broke the kiss, he stared at her. At the mention of her biting, Shota snapped out of it as he gave her a slight smirk. "Hmmm, I see...until the second date huh?" His hand reached out for her, cupping the back of her head as he pulled her in for another kiss. This time, he nibbled on her lower lip before breaking the kiss, "too bad I don't wait." He gave her a slight smirk back. She was breaking the walls he so painstakingly built after Mela broke his heart...how she managed to sneak in was beyond him, but maybe it was a spell she cast on him? Perhaps. Heh.

After Bakugou and Ruka went, it seemed like Mela-san was quite hyped up. Namie watched with a slight giggle. Seeing everyone getting so worked up was an entertaining sight indeed. She smiled up at Denki, oh she wouldn't ever let him feel lonely, ever~! She cuddled into his side and when he told her that she should give a try, Namie nodded her head. She raised her hand politely as she asked Momiji, "may I have a try?" She gave Momiji a soft gentle smile before thanking the boy for the bottle. Placing it on the table in the center, Namie spun it and watched as it turned round and round until it came to a slow and pointed at...Haru? Namie blinked in slight surprise as the boy seemed just as surprised. They stared at each other for a moment before Haru headed into the closet first. Namie looked over at Denki, giving him an apologetic smile. Ah, guess she didn't have the magic touch.

With Momiji tugging on her arm, Namie got up and headed inside the closet, giving Denki one last smile. In the dark closet, Namie blinked a few times, trying to adjust to the darkness. It was dark...and a bit cramped. She could feel Haru shifting not too far from her and there was a moment of silence before Haru spoke up, "so you and Denki are dating?" Namie blinked at that. Huh? "Oh, well...yes. Yes, we are." Namie answered him happily but after a moment of silence, Namie spoke up a bit tentatively as the air has somewhat shifted. Hm? Something happened, but what? "Um, Haru-san...is everything alright?" A low chuckle was heard as the voice changed to be a bit deeper with a rough edge. Eh? Was this...the same Haru or was this the so-called black Haru that Denki has told her about? "I see, well then tell me how that guy is treating you. Like a man, I hope? If he hasn't even tried making a move on you, then I'll just have to show you what a true man is like." Eh?

Namie let out a sound in surprise as she felt his arm wrap around her waist, pulling her flush to his chest. Placing her hands on his chest to try and put some distance between them, she looked up to feel his dark eyes looking down at her. The smirk evident on his lips. When she felt his face come closer to her's, Namie placed a hand to his mouth to block his lips as she spoke up firmly, "I'm sorry, but my heart belongs to Denki-kun." Smiling, she reached up and patted his head as she told him, "thank you for worrying, but I'm quite happy with who I am with..." as she continued to pat his hair, it seemed to have a soothing effect on the taller male as he slowly released his hold on her as his voice returned to the soft murmur, "Namie-san?" He spoke up as if confused as to why he was there. Namie sweatdropped at the change in personality but with a calm smile she told him, "everything is fine now, Haru-san." Just then the door opened up and Momiji looked surprised to see White Haru there and not Black Haru. The two left the closet and Namie returned to Denki's side. She gave her boyfriend a sweet smile as she leaned up and pecked his cheek. Everything was just fine~ Though...that was a close one. She could feel her heart hammer as she wasn't sure what would have happened if Black Haru didn't calm down. Guess she did have a magic touch in a way, hehe.

Genkai Genkai
 
Upon sitting back down, she leaned against All Might and wondered what she'd have to do to get him alone. "Uh huh!" Deku and the others might try to get him alone when this game of sorts was over with. Mela held back a grumble. Sure she didn't mind sharing All Might but why did she have to share him tonight? Tonight they could be having a nice romantic dinner at her place. She fidgeted and told herself to wait, that she and All Might were bound to get together one way or another, even if she had to pretend to faint...or something. Urgh but then Namie-chan would try to help huh? Mela would have to think of another way to get some alone time with her sexy blond hero. She looked up when Kaminari went off with his Kirishima. How sweet, those two were really good friends huh? Though she could tell Denki was wanting someone else, based on his sad eyes.

Soon it was Todoroki's turn again. Huh? How did that keep happening? She glanced to Ruka and gave her friend a supportive smile of sorts, knowing Momo and Shoto would probably have an awkward conversation at most. But if Mela thought Todoroki would ever even think about cheating on Ruka, Mela would crucify him to a tree. "Somehow these spins are a bit odd don't you think..?" Mela looked up to All Might. She felt like Momiji was rigging this all somehow but he wouldn't do that right? He was a good kid. Yeah, he was harmless! She waited as Denki and Eijiro had their little chat before Denki came out looking a bit drained. Had he accidentally used his quirk like Bakugo? "We should sneak out of here at some point." She leaned up to whisper to All Might. Yeah, maybe patience wasn't her best trait. No, but she was hopeful that All Might agreed with her little plan. Of course how would they best execute it? Maybe All Might could say he had hero work to do? That wasn't a lie...

- - -

As Shoto enjoyed holding onto Ruka loosely who was between his legs eheh, he watched everyone get paired up. The combinations were very odd and almost too odd. He had a feeling these weren't random at all. Momiji had speed so maybe he was tampering with the results? But why? It didn't make sense. He spotted Yuki and Tohru holding hands and shyly talking quietly together so maybe that was a good thing. But so far, Shoto saw this whole thing as a headache. He didn't need a closet to get with Ruka but instead she was being paired up with anyone but him. It was very frustrating. And he couldn't protest because it seemed like Ruka was enjoying herself. No, he wasn't going to be a stick-in-the-mud boyfriend.

Shoto saw Momo go and watched it land on him. Seriously? His eye twitched. Okay this was getting a bit stupid now. He moved up and looked to Ruka, looking a bit defeated as he headed into the closet. He kept his complaints to himself as Momo hurried in after him, looking rather nervous. The door closed and Shoto rubbed his neck a little, trying not to elbow Momo in the process. They had been classmates for three years now, he really didn't see her as more than anything but a friend and a confidant to discuss tactics. Still, this was a bit weird, to be in such confined quarters together. "So um how do you think midterms went?" He asked her.

Momo blinked a few times and quickly turned her back to him, thinking that would be easier. "I-I think I did re-really well." Momo stammered as she rested her head against the wall, her back and hips pressed against Shoto. "Y-you and Kurotsuki-san are real cute to-together." She added. "Thanks." Shoto could only say, not sure what else to say to that. Momo let out a sigh as Shoto kept his hands to himself, looking anywhere but at his dark haired classmate who seemed to not do well in confined spaces. "I'm a little claustrophobic, but I should be okay. It's only a few minutes." She said, a hint of distress in her voice as she tried to breath evenly. Sighing, Shoto rubbed her back, not wanting to see a friend so pained. When the door opened after more bits of forced conversation, Momo ran out before Shoto could even say anything more to her. He sighed and sat beside Ruka. "She didn't like being in closed spaces." He explained to her with a slight frown. "I missed you too." He then smiled and leaned against her. Yes, he was eager to have Ruka to himself soon, not wanting to keep missing her, it only made him want her more.

- - -

Ayumi shared similar reservations in regards to how he might feel about her. But she wasn't going to drag him to the conclusion she knew he was going to come to eventually. No, he'll get there when he stopped being paranoid and stubborn. So for now, she could just tempt him and give him all the reasons he needed in order to move on. Pulling back, she looked to him, breathing in slowly for some air. Shota moved a hand behind her head and she figured that was a good sign. Before she could say anything back, he pulled her back in for another kiss to which Ayumi wouldn't say 'no' to. Instead she pushed herself a bit closer, hooking her leg between his as she held onto him tightly, deciding it they happened to fall, they wouldn't be in too much trouble thanks to her flight quirk. Ah but who didn't like some danger in their lives anyway?

Moaning softly against his teeth, she felt a cool shiver run through down her spine as she looked to Shota, her eyes half open as she gave him a rather seductive stare, her hands moving through his hair. It was quite a shame he didn't know how badly she wanted to devour him in this moment. She crashed her lips back against his, her tongue flickering between his lips before her teeth captured and bit on her upper lip, her tongue snaking back into his mouth for another brief moment before she broke the kiss. He was funny. She had to do a lot of waiting to get to this moment. Oh well, it was worth it. "I suppose waiting is overrated." Life was too short to wait. Even more so in their line of work. Smirking, she leaned back in and licked his ear. "If we're going to keep up this little date, Shota, solid ground may be best." She purred into his ear before she grabbed her broom and wrapped her arms around him, descending down to the ground before she set them down on their feet gracefully.

Denki let out a long whine as the bottle spun around and around. He was crossing his fingers it was him or another girl. Yes, if not him then Momo or Ruka? Denki closed his eyes tightly but then opened one to see it pointing to Haru. What?! Denki glared and looked to Momiji, wanting Namie-chan to have one more try. That was just a warm up spin right?! He didn't trust Haru at all. No way! Black Haru could be pretty aggressive. He gave Namie a sad look and told himself not to cry. No, don't cry. Not in front of everyone! He told himself she could be fine, that Black Haru wouldn't do anything...okay yes he probably would. Damnit. He waited and hunched his shoulders, looking like an abandoned puppy.

When the door opened, he sat up straight and looked to Namie, hoping she would say something if Haru did anything to her. He looked as she sat down and smiled, giving him a light kiss on the cheek. Somehow he wasn't convinced that Haru behaved. Namie not saying anything didn't help either. He needed to know what happened! He was dying! Before he could muster up the courage to ask Namie what Haru may have done, because Haru was not to be trusted, he heard Ejiro say he'd go next. Denki paid his friend no mind as he nuzzled his head against Namie and shared a few needy shocks with her. Right as he was about to kiss her cheek and tell her he hoped she was okay, he found himself yanked up.

Looking, he saw Eijiro. "Come on, man. You and me!" "No! Me and Namie!" Denki protested. Denki looked helplessly to Namie as he was dragged into the closet. Why was the universe against him tonight?! Eijrio laughed and winked to Namie before the door closed. Denki and Eijiro talked about how Denki needed to duck out eventually and go back to his room with Namie and that Eijiro, being the bro he was, would make sure no one noticed, especially All Might who would probably lecture them about being gentleman or something lame like that. Talk about a boner killer huh? Denki whined about Namie and Haru but Eijiro smacked him upside the head. "He wouldn't really do anything!" Eijiro insisted. "You gotta protect your woman!" His friend added. Denki blushed and a few bolts flew out as Eijiro hardened his body and soon the door opened. Phew. Denki hurried out and settled beside Namie, an arm around her waist. Yes, they would escape. Soon. "I hope you're having a good time, I honestly didn't know any of this would um be happening." Denki rubbed his neck, hoping she was enjoying herself despite the madness.

AiAi AiAi
 
Yes, these spins were rather odd...a bit too well placed. To some, it was an amusing combo but for others, it probably wasn't as pleasant. All Might can only give Mela a small smile in response to her observation. Yes, there was probably something behind it all, but it seemed like everyone was having fun so he won't go spoiling the game. It seemed especially fun for Momiji Shounen. So when Kaminari Shounen and Kirishima Shounen went, Mela's best friend decided to give it a try. But to think of all people it would land on him. He blinked a few times before giving Ruka a nervous smile. The gleam in the Pinkette's eyes was something to be nervous about. He gave Mela a quick smile and pat before heading into the closet after Ruka. He couldn't help but wonder what Momiji Shounen was planning.

As the two shared the rather tight space, thankful that Ruka was small...er. All Might kept his eyes looking at the wall past Ruka's head, feeling her piercing stare directed at him. Even in the dark, he can feel her intimidating stare, "y-yes Kurotsuki Shoujo?" Did Mela tell Ruka about their relationship already? Was that why she was giving him such a glare? Hearing her speak up, All Might stood there rigidly, keeping his hands to his sides, "I don't know what games you're playing, but know this, I am keeping my eyes on you. Pro hero or not, it doesn't matter to me." Oh, so Mela has told her about them? "And just so you know, she has a boyfriend right now and she's getting happier. If you so much as make her cry, I will not hold back...understand?" Huh? Wait, so Kurotsuki Shoujo doesn't know...? Somehow, All Might felt a bit conflicted. He wanted to let Mela be able to confide in her best friend, but a bit of relief was there too as he didn't think he can handle Ruka's pressure. But then why was the Pinkette still keeping an eye on him? "Not going to answer?" Snapping out of his thoughts, All Might stammered out, "U-Understood!" How did this happen? Apparently, for the girl, age and profession made no difference. As the time was up, All Might returned to sit beside Mela, feeling a bit drained after his little talk with Ruka. After a rather interesting turn of two boys once again, All Might's ears perked up as Mela went again...but alas it wasn't him. Thinking back to her words, yes...he would like to find a way out soon.

- - -

Ruka nodded her head in understanding when Shoto explained about Momo's little problem. Oh, poor Momo. She gave the dark-haired girl a small smile in hopes of comforting her. Seeing as how Eijiro went next, Ruka just enjoyed her time sitting with Shoto, enjoying his warmth. When it landed on Denki, Ruka couldn't help but let out a slight laugh. That was just amusing, she recalled the times Eijiro would take Denki away and somehow this seemed all the same as that. Hehe. Smiling slightly as the pair came back out of the closet, Ruka reached over and grabbed the bottle. If people kept getting Shoto, then she'll just have to do the job and get him herself...and keep him to herself. Heh. Spinning the bottle in hopes of getting her boyfriend, Ruka blinked as it pointed at...All Might!? She made a face, clearly not happy about this but then her eyes shined as an idea came to mind. Well..she might as well take this to her advantage and set the man straight so he won't get in the way of Mela's happiness. Eyes shining, Ruka headed inside and her sweet shine took on a dangerous glint as she began to talk to All Might about her Mela's happiness. No one and she means no one is allowed to make her Mela upset. Pro hero or not, Ruka doesn't care.

Once their five minutes were up, Ruka walked out feeling quite refreshed as it was hard to get the pro hero alone. How Mela does it was beyond her. Giving her best friend a smile, Ruka sat back down next to Shoto, feeling quite proud of herself at the moment. Now there was one less person to worry about getting too close to her Mela. She gave a small pout to Shoto as she said, "I'm sorry hun~ I tried to get you." But nooo. Apparently, the bottle doesn't like her and Shoto being together. Seeing Shoto spin next, Ruka watched eagerly hoping it'll land on her...but then it landed on someone everyone least expected. Ruka blinked a few times, unsure whether she should be laughing or um what? Hearing a sudden yell from one side and a feeling of annoyance from her other side, Ruka was stuck between Shoto and Bakugou as they were pushed into the closet by Momiji. Ruka can only give Shoto a nod, hoping that they'll survive this. She honestly wasn't sure what to expect from this, though the smallest giggle left her when the two entered the closet. This was just too much...the look on both of their faces was...cute. Ruka held back a laugh as she thought back to their faces. Yeah, cute would be a good word, right? Maybe for Ruka, but for everyone else it was probably a scary look. Hehe. As Shoto and Bakugou came back out, Ruka gave Katsuki a brief pat on the head before turning to comfort her boyfriend. Its okay, she knows that nothing happened. Leaning up she whispered into his ear, "did you get him back for me?" She smirked up at Shoto, giving him a rewarding kiss. When Mela gave it another go, Ruka smiled as it landed on her. Well then...she giggled slightly as she saw Mela head in first. She looked over to Shoto, giving him a slightly apologetic smile before heading into the closet at Mela's beckoning. She can't say no to her Mela after all~

Feeling her move closer to him, Shota's arms wrapped around Ayumi to ensure that she won't go falling but even if she did, he knew she could easily fly back up. He didn't really want to see her falling unless it was his own doing. Heh. Breaking the kiss, he watched her for any reaction to his words, to his actions. Seeing her give him such a stare caused shivers to run down his back...the good kind. He blinked a few times, unsure of what he should say or do as her hand ran through his hair in a rather nice way. When she moved in close to kiss him once more, Shota realized it was no use fighting this woman. His eyes slid shut as he wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him. He let out a soft moan when she pushed her tongue into his mouth, able to have a taste of her.

At her whispered words, Shota can only let her fly them back down to the ground. Once their feet landed, he pulled her in for another kiss as he picked her up, wrapping his arms around her waist. He moved them over to the bench which was by the tree and sat down, placing her on his lap as he didn't break the kiss the whole time. Tugging on her lip roughly with his own pair, Shota broke the kiss for some much-needed air. He stared into her eyes as he panted softly, "you...will be the death of me one day." Honestly, who can so easily break through his walls like how she has done? Mela's broken through, but Ayumi didn't just break it, she crushed it. Running his hand through her hair, he murmured out in slight amusement, "so much for patrolling, hm?" Ah yes, he just found something else that needed to be inspected much more thoroughly than a simple patrol would do. Yes, something much more fascinating.

- - -

Leaning into Denki's touch, Namie just calmed herself down. That was a bit of a surprise to see Black Haru so up close, but somehow she was able to calm him down...but the look he gave her at the end was making Namie wonder if that was a good thing or a bad thing. But before Namie can even think any further on it, she turned her attention to Eijiro as he made a sound when he spun the bottle next. She saw who it was pointing at and Namie couldn't help but giggle. Giggling to both the gentle shocks Denki was sending to her and the way Eijiro just dragged Denki with him into the closet. She could only smile as Denki gave her a sad smile. Somehow, she didn't mind this pairing at all. She found it quite amusing and to hear Denki want her instead made her all the happier hehe. When the pair soon emerged, Namie giggled as she scooted closer to Denki as his arm wrapped around her.

She smiled over at him as she nuzzled her head against his, "mmmhmm! I'm having a lot of fun! Thanks for the invite." She smiled up at Denki, not wanting him to regret inviting her over or something like that. She found everyone to be quite interesting and the game was making things quite lively. She kissed Denki on the cheek as she whispered into his ear, "hopefully we can have our turn soon." She gave him a wink before turning to see Ruka spin the bottle only to land on the pro hero. Namie giggled slightly at that though, for the next two, Namie couldn't help but laugh along with a few others. When Ruka couldn't seem to land on her own boyfriend, Shoto tried and that just resulted in quite the interesting pair. Namie giggled as she leaned against Denki, yes...this was a good night.

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela let out a small whine when Ruka and All Might got pushed together. Mela hoped Ruka was nice, but surely Ruka had no issues with All Might. Everyone loved him! Oh, wait Ruka was never a fan of his huh? Mela squirmed in her seat, letting out an anxious sigh, a bit jealous that Ruka got some alone time with him but was sure poor Toshinori was doing his best to behave. Mela gave Ruka curious tilt of the head when she came out and sat down. She then looked to All Might. "Everything okay?" Of course Ruka wasn't aware it was All Might who was making her happier these days. But soon, Ruka should at least give Toshi some credit in his cute slender form. Maybe another double date was in order?

Shaking her head, she looked to see Shoto and Bakugo get paired up. She didn't know who she felt sorry for more. Urgh, she didn't envy either boy but she did wish she could smack Bakugo a few times. Yes, for now she'd let Todoroki slide if it meant getting to take a crack at Bakugo herself. "Those two look like trou~ble~" Mela smiled to herself as she leaned back against All Might. When there was a chance, Mela decided to spin, hoping she could enjoy some alone time with the number one hero. Fingers crossed! Mela looked to see it was Ruka. Aw, okay! That would work too! Mela jumped up and winked to her friend. "Come on, darling, time for some alone time~"

Jumping into the closet, she wiggled her finger to summon her pink haired companion. "Don't leave me waiting, sugar~" She giggled. Once insice, Mela threw her arms around Ruka and started laughing. Ahh there was no point in making out if no one was watching right? "You and Todoroki-kun seem extra close tonight." She grinned, resting her forehead against Ruka's. "I swear that guy has fallen so hard for you." She gave a dreamy sigh, wondering if Toshi could ever love her that way. "Make him wait. Oh make him beg." She laughed. "Guys always love the chase!" She said. Of course she knew that was mostly true, until the guy snapped. But Toshinori nor All Might would right?

If anything, Mela was bound to snap. After some more scheming, the door opened and Mela quickly gave Ruka a light peck on the nose before she skipped back to All Might. Momiji decided he could join in the fun now too and it somehow landed on her. Again? Was that okay? Mela nervously got up and looked to All Might before she was pulled into the closet. "Is this fair?" Mela teased him as she hooked her arms around. "I guess I should formally thank you for being so pushy with me and All Might. So thank you." She leaned down and kissed his forehead. "I just wish the bottle would land on me if he ever gave it a spun." Hint hint, Momiji-kun! Mela soon stepped out when it was time. She curled her arms around All Might's larger arm as she saw Yuki spin and get Ruka. Oh~?

- - -

Shoto was intrigued by the idea of Ruka and All Might. But mostly because he knew how little she cared for the number one hero despite her best friend's erm love for the guy. He was sure Ruka would glare at him or something. So he wasn't very concerned for Ruka. Maybe for All Might. He was a teacher and this seemed a bit inappropriate. But if the guy wasn't complaining then neither would Shoto. Instead he offered ruka a supportive smile as she went off with the man. He caught Mela looking worried so he leaned over. "Don't worry, they'll be fine." He said but his words fell on deaf ears it seemed. Though the longer these rounds took, the longer he had to wait to have Ruka.

And waiting was the worst part. When Ruka came out he smiled to her, "That's okay, I'll try for us." He nodded. He was trying to do some quick math on how fast the bottle spun and where it might lose its speed but he knew if a blond was behind this, then it didn't matter what he tried. When it landed, he groaned. Oh great. Him. Explosives for brains. Shoto glared and remained sitting until Momiji prodded both boys into the closet. Shoto folded his arms as did Bakugo but that left them wedged together heh. "So you and Ruka are pretty serious now huh?" "What's it to you?" Shoto narrowed his eyes, not caring what people thought, much less Bakugo of all people.

Bakugo seemed to scoff at Shoto before silence fell over them. Shoto soon noticed a bit of heat coming off of Bakugo's arms. "Stop using your quirk." Shoto snapped. Or he'd use his. Who cares if it probably risked expulsion? "Then stop touching me!" Bakugo snapped back. Who did that leave then? Was Shoto just supposed to touch himself then? Shoto began to cover himself in a thick coat of ice. Whatever. "That's fucking cold!" Bakugo yelled. Shoto was still annoyed at Bakugo getting to call Ruka by her name so casually so he made sure his icy arms were extra spikey. "So what are you going to do about it?" Shoto dared. Bakugo then landed a punch right next to Shoto's head, testing him.

The two stood there with Shoto taking up most of the room with his while Bakugo was frozen in place. Shoto was getting all the more annoyed now. This game was stupid and he wanted to take Ruka away from these children. Yes. Children like Bakugo. Hmph. The door opened and Shoto melted his ice quickly hoping no one noticed. He sat back down and let out a tired sigh. Stupid Bakugo. He was about to pull Ruka into his arms for comfort and warmth when she was summoned by Mela. Shoto groaned again. Seriously? This was a cruel joke now and it wasn't funny. Shoto sat back, tuning out the annoying taunts Bakugo was making. Yeah, Ruka wouldn't really do anything with Mela, she only did that to get a rise out of him and if he couldn't see, then surely they were just talking.

- - -

Ayumi had hoped to pin him to the tree and trap him but instead he had picked her up and taken her over to a nearby bench. Hmmm okay. Fine. She would follow his lead for now. He shouldn't get used to it though. She kissed him deeply as her hands tugged at his hair. With her legs still locked around him, she comfortably settled on his lap as she parted for air. Ayumi looked down at Shota and smirked at his words. "Good. I intend to be." She whispered right back. She would make sure it would be such a sweet death. She set her hat aside next to them as she rested her forehead against his. This was more than them killing time. "Well if we're going to patrol together, we should be able to work together."

"This is good practice." She shrugged before she pulled his hair and kissed his lips hard before she kissed down along his neck, nipping as she came to his collar bone and sucked, her teeth biting down, leaving a mark. Ayumi pushed herself against him as she moved her hands to his shoulders and massaged lightly. "You really wanna date me?" Labels were silly and she hated them but given he got out of a relationship a month ago and was still probably grieving in some way, she needed to be sure she wasn't reading too deeply into this without some confirmation. Dating would be new territory but for Shota, she was sure she could make an exception. "Can't get rid of me that easily huh?" She teased him as she blew into his ear. Yeah, patrolling was done at this point. She only had one thing on her mind. "What's my name." She moaned into his ear. She wanted to invite him back to her place and she'd make pancakes in the morning but no, she would take it slow. Slow ish.

After Mela and Ruka were done, Yuki looked to Tohru before he spun the bottle, hoping to land on her again. Yes, that was okay right? Yuki eyed it and looked up and saw it was Ruka. Was that right? He looked to Tohru before he got to his feet. He wasn't one to make a fuss so he motioned for Ruka to follow him inside. Ladies first. He was quite slim so he didn't take up a lot of room. "I know some of us are getting a bit annoyed by who we're matching up with." He lamented, knowing full well what Momiji was up to. Yuki tried to use his quirk to control the bottle but Momiji was too darn quick.

He wanted some more time with Tohru and he could sense even from where he was sitting that Todoroki wanted his turn with Ruka. "I feel a bit bad." He frowned, knowing it really wasn't his fault though. He hoped Todoroki wasn't too cross with him. But he was sure once the couples disbanded or if they could disband, things would be okay. "I must thank you for your help with Honda-san and myself." He placed a hand on top of her head. "I think when we go home tomorrow, things will be much better." He would ask her tomorrow to be his girlfriend after the rematches. He could tell them going out together felt natural and he had to suppose this was how Ruka and Todoroki felt too, despite him and Honda not being one another's soulmates. They still had hope that pure love could exist somewhere in the world. "If you or Todoroki-san find yourself in Tokyo again please give us a call." He smiled warmly.

- - -

With the next few pairs, Denki felt a lot safer in being able to hold Namie-chan close to him. Yes, this made things a little better. In the back of his mind however, he kept wondering when he would have better luck. He needed to be in the closet with Namie. Not Todoroki or Kurotsuki or Uede or any of the Sohmas. No. Namie. Was that so much to ask? Denki was trying to hold on hope but he was tempted to just drag Namie back to his dorm and lock them in that closet. It wasn't as big but it would be about the same right? He glanced up as he saw Shoto and Bakugo come out, looking pretty sour. And then he saw Uede and Kurotsuki next. Ah if only they could see what was going on in there huh?

Sighing lightly, he told himself that Namie was having fun. She said so herself. But still, this wasn't nearly as much fun as he knew they could be having back at her place or in his room. But no, Denki. It's okay. As Uede and Kurotsuki's turn ended, Denki put Namie in his lap and held onto her. Yeah, no one was getting their hands on her! Namie was otherwise attached to someone else so if she went into the closet with someone, then he did too! Or was that a bit crazy? Denki made a face as he watched Ruka and Yuki-san go in now. Ruka was very popular heh. And actually, Denki was glad he wasn't paired off with her. No, he only wanted Namie. She was the only thing on his mind right now. It was really refreshing actually. "Soon we can go back to my dorm." He muttered into Namie's ear. He wasn't sure what they would do but they would figure it out. But it wouldn't involve his cat. "I think we'd sleep better in a real bed." Yes was that a good enough reason? Or was that too forward...?

AiAi AiAi
 
He can only give Mela a smile as he nodded his head. Yes, he was alright...he was just a little surprised that a small pink haired girl can be so...viciously scary. He gulped recalling those eyes staring him down and making him feel small. Yes...she made him feel small. He gave Mela a soft pat on the head as he told her, "Kurotsuki Shoujo cares very much for you..." very very very much. When Todoroki spun the bottle next, he wondered who the boy would get and when he got Bakugou...well, All Might was now concerned. If Ruka and Bakugou was something to be concerned of, Bakugou with Todoroki was very concerning. At Mela's laughing words, All Might can only smile nervously. Oh boy, hopefully, he won't have to go in there and stop the two...because honestly? He probably won't be able to fit in there anyway. Thankfully, there was only a bunch of yelling before the pair got out of the closet. At least now Ruka can calm them down...or not. All Might can only watch helplessly as Mela skipped into the closet with her best friend.

All Might couldn't help but smile at that. He recalled those matches that the two girls shared before but seeing Mela so happy made him happy in turn. He was glad Mela had such a good friend, scary...but a good friend. After the two girls have left the closet smiling, All Might happily accept Mela back into his arms...only for her to get up and go once again. This time it was with Momiji Shounen. Oh...All Might blinked a few times as he watched the pair enter the closet. He was a bit conflicted for this pairing. Momiji Shounen was the one who pushed him and Mela together, but the boy was a clever and mischievous little one at the same time...urgh things can either go good or bad. But All Might decided to not worry about it. If anything, he hoped Mela thanked Momiji for helping them out. Afterward, Mela came out happy along with Momiji. Well, those two were always happy and All Might was more than happy to see Mela smiling and laughing once again.

So when she returned to sit beside him, he smiled down at her. Seeing Kurotsuki Shoujo go in once more, All Might noticed that the girls were quite popular...yes, this had to be someone's doing and not all coincidences. So when Uraraka Shoujo made a quip about going...he did not expect for it to land on him of all people. Huh? He blinked a few times. Why him? Clearly, Momiji Shounen must know who he really wanted to go in the closet with...oh. Yes, Momiji Shounen must know. All Might held back a groan as he smiled over at Urarako Shoujo, letting her in first before going in himself. He gave Mela a brief smile before going in. It was so small. Way too small for someone like him. This was awkward. He heard a panic-stricken Midoriya Shounen's voice from beyond the doors and All Might can only smile down at the flustered Uraraka who was stuck in between his arms. Trying to make light conversation, he spoke up, "so I take it you and Midoriya Shounen are dating?" Uraraka's face turned red while she shook her head, "no!" Oh...um...well then. Uh...now it was just silence. Soon the pair were let out and All Might moved over to take a seat next to Mela. Hm, perhaps he should try his turn for a spin? Would Momiji Shounen be kind and help a man in need?

- - -

Seeing everyone go in and out of the closet, Momiji would be lying if he said he wasn't having fun. No no, he was having loads of fun. Each pairing was carefully thought out by yours truly and he was enjoying every moment of it. Some he did it purposefully to push them together such as Yuki and Tohru~! While another more for fun such as Bakugou and Todoroki. While others...well he couldn't help but want to tease the boys a bit more as he placed their precious girlfriends into the arms of other men...and women. Hehe. But he decided he wanted a little fun himself~! And who else better to be with him in the closet than his very own lovely partner? Grinning, Momiji stepped forward as he said, "my turn~!" Spinning the bottle it landed on Mela, oh what a surprise hehe.

Heading inside with her, Momiji wrapped his arms around her as he gave her an innocent smile, "hm? What are you talking about~? It's all a coincidence~ But it must be saying something with how everyone is getting paired up. Hehe." Hearing Mela thank him, Momiji simply smiled up at her as he leaned up and pecked her cheek as he then said, "there~! I have taken my reward~ Hehe." He gave Mela a wink as he headed out after her. He looked over at Mela hanging off of All Might's arm. Hm...should he give Mela to All Might when the hero finally decides to spin? Honestly, Momiji had half the mind to give him Deku instead. Ehe. Half a mind...so he'll be nice...at the end. Hehe. Seeing that his cousin was up next, Momiji smirked as he knew who he was going to pick for Yuki, sorry but not Tohru for this round~! He still wanted to see just how much he can push a certain half and half user until they snapped. Though something told Momiji it wasn't him or anyone else that was going to get the brunt of his frustrations. Just one pink haired girl. Hehe~

- - -

Hearing the shouts coming from the closet where her good friend Katsuki and her boyfriend Shoto were currently stuck in, Ruka let out a giggle, unable to hold back from laughing. Ah, this was just too much. She glanced briefly over at Momiji before turning to face the door. Hopefully, they wouldn't burn or freeze the place up. Hehe. Thankfully the pair were soon finished with their rather grueling time in the closet and in turn, Ruka comforted both of the boys. To Katsuki she ruffled his hair to which he just growled at her...just like a dog. Heh. Then turning to Shoto, Ruka gave him a sweet kiss and would have loved to just stay cuddled in his arms but alas...that wasn't about to happen. Ruka blinked a bit at the timing before turning to head into the closet as she heard her dear Mela beckoning her to come. Ruka gave Shoto an apologetic smile before entering the closet.

The two girls were giggling as Ruka smiled over at Mela. It was such a relief to see her best friend this happy. She blushed slightly at Mela's words. A-ah...were they now? She smiled up at her best friend, "hmm, is he now? I think I can name a few who are quite smitten with you. Myself included of course hehe." Yes, there were a few still on her list...the few that she was letting them live...for now. Though when Mela mentioned making Shoto wait, Ruka sweatdropped. Uhhh that was probably not a good idea. Ruka can already feel Shoto's patience running thin and she had an inkling of a feeling that a certain speedy blonde was behind all of this. Was Momiji trying to get her in trouble with Shoto? Though the trouble...well she may just like it. Ehe.

As the time was up, the two girls left giggling before Ruka walked over to take a seat in between the two hotheads. She smiled over at Shoto, leaning into his hold while she watched Mela head off into the closet once more. My my, this was becoming quite the chore wasn't it? She found it amusing that Momiji was having the most kick out of this meaning the boy definitely had something to do with the results of each spin. Oh well, no harm was done so far so Ruka won't say anything for now...but she wondered just how much longer could Shoto take it? She gave her lover a smile, lacing her fingers with his. Though her time with Shoto was cut short as the bottle Yuki spun now landed on her. Really? Ruka held back a groan as she stood up walking in first as she thanked Yuki lightly.

Thankfully, unlike All Might, Yuki was much slimmer in build. She faced him as they stood across from each other. She lifted a brow at his words, he knew...didn't he? She shrugged lightly as she replied back, "yeah, but no harm is done so I'm sure it's fine. Everyone seems to be enjoying it in one way or another hehe." Yes, someone was at least enjoying each pairing. Be it purely for its comedic reasons or because it brought them memories of previous matches. Someway or another, someone was enjoying it. Ruka smiled up at him, "don't feel bad. It's not your fault, I think we all know what's going on, but hey its all just for fun and games, right?" Yes, it was all just games, until she gets her Shoto at least. Hehe.

Hearing Yuki thank her so genuinely threw her off, especially when he placed his hand on top of her head so warmly. Ruka blinked a few times a soft blush dusting her cheeks, completely taken off guard as no one really did that to her. It felt like she was getting praised for doing a good job and oddly enough...it felt nice. Blinking a few more times, Ruka let out a slight huff as she moved out of his reach. She looked up at Yuki and gave him a soft smile back, "I'm glad to hear things are going well for you two...and I do hope it continues to go well." Yes, he better damn ask Tohru out! At the mention of Tokyo, Ruka smiled, oh yes...she would love to go back to Tokyo with Shoto, there were many special memories there for them after all, "sure, I'll let you know when we do drop by." Maybe it was due to spending the entire week with Yuki, but Ruka felt like she made one more friend and honestly it made her happy.

When the time was up, Ruka still felt a bit flushed as Yuki would not stop patting her head. She was near pouting by the time they left as she felt like a small child whenever he did it, yet it made her happy too. It was strange and honestly conflicting and she didn't like conflicting feelings. She watched Yuki head over to sit by Tohru and that sight brought a small smile to her lips. Yes, she hoped those two can prove that even if they weren't soulmates that love is very much possible. Returning to sit beside Shoto, Ruka smiled up at him. Yes, soulmates or not, Ruka would stay beside this man for as long as she was allowed. But really, when was it her and Shoto's turn, Momiji-kun!?

- - -

He lifted a brow when Ayumi just easily shrugged off his words, saying it would be good practice. Right...practice. He smirked slightly as he was soon pulled into a rough kiss with his hair being tugged. He let out a moan when she began to nip and kiss along his neck, his head moving to the side to give her more room. His hands gripped her hips tightly as she kissed and bit his soft flesh. He let out another moan as her soft body was pressed against his. He grits his teeth, staring at her with slightly darkened hues. Date her huh...was that what this is all about? The rush of pleasure was just too much for him as this felt new...this was different. But no...he wasn't about to compare her to Mela, no no. They were two completely different people and Shota was not stupid enough to compare them. But Ayumi was by far, a new storm that he was now in the midst of.

Yes, he really can't get rid of her and right now...he doesn't want to. Would he change his mind later? No...probably not. He wasn't the type to just have flings with someone, at least not with someone he knows and works with. Hearing her moaning question, Shota shuddered slightly as he moved his hands up from her waist to her hair, letting his fingers run through them before gripping it to have her face him. Kissing her hard on the lips, Shota murmured against her soft lips, "Ayumi..." Or was he supposed to say something else? Something like...you're mine? Heh. But no no...surely she wasn't one to ask for that, was she?

Kissing her hard on the lips, Shota pulled back and smirked at her as his thumbs massaged her hips, "your place, or mine?" Simple question really because tonight Musutafu would not be needing the aid of Eraserhead and Witchya. No no, they will be quite busy tonight. Maybe try tomorrow. Yes, tomorrow would probably be a better day...maybe.

- - -

Namie was just happy sitting by Denki, enjoying his warm and tingling presence. Plus all these pairings were just so...interesting. Her eyes were shining the entire time Todoroki and Bakugou were in the closet. It was just so...interesting. Hehe. And then next was a girl-girl pairing? Oh dear, Momiji-kun sure knew how to have fun and get creative. Namie watched everything with a soft smile on her lips though a part of her couldn't help but wonder if Denki wanted a chance with the pink-haired girl as well? But no...he wanted just her and her only, right? Not Ruka or any other girl...or guy for that matter, right? Namie glanced over at Denki, but upon feeling him pull her onto his lap, all her doubts were washed away. Smiling, she leaned her back against his chest, yes this felt just right.

As Denki murmured softly into her ear, Namie shivered slightly. Oh? Was that an invitation? Her eyes gleamed with slight excitement as she leaned up and murmured back into his ear, "I would love that very much~" She purred out as she gave his ear a gentle lick. She smiled over at Denki, but before she can say anything else, a sudden shout from beside her caught her attention. Hm? It seemed that Eijiro went again, claiming that Denki wasn't a real round at all. Namie turned to see the bottle was pointing towards her and she giggled at Eijiro's excitement. She gave Denki a smile before being pulled into the closet by an excited Eijiro. The red-head gave Denki a wink before closing the door.

Namie turned to face the grinning Eijiro as she was soon smiling herself. The two shared a light laugh as Eijiro congratulated her getting together with Denki. Blushing slightly, Namie smiled back as she told him, "thank you...but really, it was thanks to your help...so thank you, Eijiro-kun." He really has been a help for her and Namie thought Eijiro was a really good friend. A very great one to both her and Denki. Wanting to thank him properly, Namie leaned up and pecked his cheek in a friendly manner before telling him teasingly, "now, we just have to find the right Mrs. Kirishima for you~" Eijiro blushed at that comment and the two just chatted for a bit before the door opened on them. Namie went out first as Eijiro said, "ladies first~" she giggled at her friend's words before returning to Denki's side with a smile. Nuzzling her head against his, Namie whispered into his ear, "your turn to try? Perhaps you have the magic touch. Hehe." Namie grinned up at him.

Genkai Genkai
 
Ochako spinning meant it had to land on land on someone like Iida or Midoriya right? But then it landed on All Might. Mela's jaw dropped. Okay so he had Ruka and now Ochako?! That wasn't fair at all. Momiji was going to get an arrow in his butt tomorrow! Mela almost reached out to pull All Might back. She didn't want to share him anymore. Not tonight. She let out a soft impatient whine as she gave Momiji a look. Eventually All Might came back and she smiled slightly to him. He should just break the bottle and they could all leave right? Surely that would work. After a few more turns, Tenya and Momo, Bakugo and Kyo, it seemed things were wrapping up.

Denki spun and got his girlfriend so maybe Momiji was going to show some mercy finally? Mela noticed them coming out looking rather flustered. "Okay, go you give it a go." She handed her own boyfriend the bottle. When it landed on her, she held back a cheer as she walked inside with her boyfriend. Finally! Mela jumped up when the door closed as she wrapped her arms around his broad neck. "I've been waiting all night to get you alone." Leaning in, she nipped and sucked on his earlobe. But did she call him Toshi or All Might? Was calling him All Might weird? Would he like that or no? She loved both of his personas though there wasn't too much of a difference between them.

Well obviously All Might was much bigger but she still craved both for different reasons. Pressing her chest against his, she gave a low appericiative moan at him wearing his usual hero costume. Well she supposed she could call him All Might in this form and stick to Toshi in his other form, that may ensure she didn't accidentally switch names around other people, unless Toshi requested otherwise. "You are mine, All Might." She moaned into his ear before she began to kiss along his neck. Yes, Mela was quite proud to have him as hers. Maybe tonight she could reward them with something sweet, since they were so patient. Mela moved to run her hands through his golden hair.

After some more teasing, the door opened and All Might had to set her back down as she quickly walked out, not caring if anyone thought something had happened. They surely didn't think All Might would take advantage of his fans er students right? Mela couldn't help but grin as Ruka went next. Oh but where had Denki and Namie gone off to? She eyed her boyfriend and when the door closed, she mentioned something about forgetting her PJs at home. All Might offered to help her retrieve them. She grabbed her bag and waved to everyone before she ran off. Enough waiting. Once outside, she turned back to All Might who took her in his arms and flew them back to his place quite promptly, all the while her lips suck and licked at his neck. When they arrived, she headed inside and set her things down before she smirked to her boyfriend.

Now which form would she get to surprise?

- - -

Shoto wasn't too sure what would happen between Ruka and Yuki. He was her queen and he was some sort of princely figure back home? Ah he was being silly but his blood wasn't where it needed to be to think things through. He just wanted Ruka. Was that so complicated? He watched as Yuki and Ruka vanished into the tight closet and he felt Mela eyeing his reaction. Shoto folded his arms and made a face. How long was this going to last? When Ruka came out looking quite pleased, he slowly unfolded his arms. Nothing happened. Nope, just calm down. Argh but he had needs. When would they be met? Or would he have to just leave now?

After some more spins, Denki and Namie went, followed by Mela and All Might. During All Might and Mela's turn, Denki anad Namie seemed to have slipped away. Lucky then. Shoto took the bottle and handed it to Ruka. "Just think of me, sweetheart." He said and gave Momiji a hard look. Yeah if he didn't get Ruka, Momiji was going to turn into some kind of popsicle. It spun around and landed on him. He smiled and jumped up, taking Ruka's hand. He almost ran into the closet with her. When the door closed, he pinned her against the back wall, his back to the door, just to be safe for erm reasons.

Now maybe she could see how badly he was wanting her. This waiting was horrible. But tomorrow night they had a date night in a nice hotel away from everyone where there would be no waiting at all. "I should show you how much I really missed you." Sitting next to her with his hormones flowing was not good. He wanted to share himself with Ruka, not restrain himself. Kissing along her neck, he left light marks as his lips hastily moved up to her ear and flicked his cooled tongue around the rim of her ear. "Oh Ruka, we're not getting any sleep tonight and we're not staying here." No way, he was going to take her someplace and soon. He couldn't hold back much longer.

His hands moved up and down her body, his hands squeezing and caressing her curves, even sneaking under her shirt. She was so beautiful and deserved to always be touched and kissed and adored. When the door opened, he stepped back after he ensured Ruka was proper. But it felt so short. He saw Mela and All Might were gone. Hm. Whatever. He took Ruka's hand and got their things before he just left, not bothering to make up an excuse. Getting to his car, he opened the door for her as he got in and drove back to her place, his grip on the wheel quite hard. Yeah he didn't care if they had rematches tomorrow morning, he was going to make sure his love was well taken care of. That was his priority.

Parking, he turned to her. This was private enough right? "Come here babe." He growled.

- - -

At him not saying if he was going to date her, she rose a brow but didn't say anything. Well after tonight, she was sure he wouldn't have any other doubts there. Being forced to look at him, she gave him a slight smirk. Damn, he was quite the kisser. Well Ayumi wasn't about to let this charming pro hero go, unlike another brunette, not with a silver tongue like his. Ayumi shivered as he said her name. Good boy. Part of her was somewhat tempted to just tell him he was hers but it obviously went without saying that she didn't like to share. Sure one night stands were great but she wasn't going to be content with just one night with Shota.

Not by any means. She wanted to spent many days and nights bothering him and doting upon him if he'd let her. "Mine." She replied as she got up and pulled him to his feet. She flew off the ground so they were eye to eye before she kissed him a bit softer now. Yes, she liked the feel of his lips against hers. Where else would they feel good? Grabbing her broom, she got on and waited for him to wrap his arms around her before she grabbed her hat and flew back to her place. Landing in front of the door, she hopped down and unlocked the door before she stepped inside and propped her broom up and took her hat back off.

Now she was just in black jeans and a flowy black long sleeve shirt kimono shirt. But not for long. She sauntered back to her bedroom and expected he would follow. She shooed Nazo away who ran off to her spare bedroom to nest. Ayumi sat on her bed and laid back. Her walls were grey like everywhere else, she had a large bed a simple mirror, dresser and a bookcase spanning a wall. She smirked to Shota as he joined her. Pulling him down, she was about to kiss him before she pulled off his scarf and his goggles, setting them by the bed on her dark hardwood bedside table. Leaning up, she finally captured his lips with hers. "Mmm Shota~" She hummed against his lips, her hand resting on his hips.

She hated to think how long she had waited for this moment. Forever it felt like.

She was hoping he would fall under her spell tonight. And maybe tomorrow morning too. Yes, she would exorcise Uede from his head. While she would never replace her as his soulmate, she could be something more. Hopefully. She stared up at him as she rolled over, he had to know she wasn't going to let him stay on top for very long. She pulled his shirt of his head and then discarded her own. Yeah they were both overdressed for this encounter. "And here I was about to see if you wanted to have some fun in the park." She smirked down at him as her eyes moved u and down his chest, giving him a smirk of approval. Oh yes, she liked what she saw.

- - -

Seeing Eijiro pull his girlfriend into the closest wasn't exactly fun for the boy. No it was nowhere close to it. Eijiro and Namie had to be planning something right? He caught a few looks from his classmates but he could see a few of them, like himself, were a bit glossy eyed or restless. He waited and waited before they came out. He held her close when she returned to him. Yes, by his side where she fit perfectly eheh. He took the bottle but heard Momo shyly speak up that she'd like to try again. And then Kyo wanted to go. And even Kagura who got paired with Deku. Heh. He finally took the bottle when Namie handed it to him. He nodded, "I hope so!" He gave her a thumbs up.

Though only Namie really knew if he had the magic touch or not heh. Denki kissed her lips. "For good luck." He said before he gave it a spin and it landed on Namie. Yes! Yesss! He threw his arms up. "Alright!" He cheered as he got up and picked up Namie and took her into the closet, not needing any sort of prodding or pushing. Nope. He could handle this! Once the door closed, he pulled his arms around Namie and decorated her face with light kisses, bit of electricity in every sweet peck. "It's not fair, I had to wait all night for you." He pouted as he nuzzled his nose against hers, breathing in her sweet light flowery smell. Ah, yes that helped his anxiety a bit heh.

But then again she did wait too huh? Well now they could enjoy each other for a little bit before he could really have some fun. Yes. He hands moved to rest on her hips as he brought his lips down and kissed her deeply. His tongue traced between her lips before he was given entry. He didn't have much to eat so he decided he'd have to enjoy Namie as his dinner hehe. Denki's tongue roamed around her mouth as his lips stayed locked against hers. She tasted so good. He brought up a hand to run his hand through her hair, breaking the rather sloppy kiss. He leaned back in and licked up some of the saliva. Was he trying to be neat or teasing? Oh maybe both. But he was a good boyfriend right?

"You're staying the night. My dorm. Yeah?" He grinned as he pressed his lips against her neck. Yeah, he wasn't going to take any other answer. Unless she wanted to go all the way back to her place. It was far but he just wanted her to be comfortable. Yeah, anywhere she was, is where he wanted to be right now. Biting at her neck, he captured a bit of her sweet flowery skin and sucked and nipped at it, leaving a dark mark. When the door opened, he stepped out, holding her hand. When it was Uede and All Might's turn, Denki slipped off with Namie, going back to his dorm on the other floor. He let her in before he turned on the lights and kicked off his shoes. Now they were alone. Er save for a fuzzy boy named Peachy.

"I think we can uhh both take the bed?" He asked Namie with a small blush.

AiAi AiAi
 
As Kaminari Shounen picked up the green-haired healer and headed into the closet, All Might couldn't help but smile a bit. Ah, young love. How nice it was to see such affection. He glanced over at Mela briefly wondering if he should give it a try next. So when Mela handed him the bottle, he gladly spun it and silently hoped that Momiji Shounen would help them out once more? So when it did land on Mela, he smiled slightly but then stopped. Oh, was it creepy and just plain strange for a teacher to be happy about this situation? Ah, calm down All Might...just be cool about it. He followed Mela inside the closet and the moment it closed, he wrapped his arms around her smaller form as she began to kiss his ear. Letting out a small sound, he was soon a blushing mess at her words. O-Oh? Did she want him that badly? Smiling softly, he murmured back, "I have been waiting too..."

Feeling her press more against him, he blushed slightly. A-Ah what was he supposed to do? He kept his hands on her waist as he enjoyed her teasing kisses. Hearing her heated words whispered into his ear, All Might felt shivers race down his back as a low moan left his lips. Yes, he was quite hers for quite some time now, "mmhmm, all yours Mela..." he murmured back softly. Leaning down he captured her lips with his and the two enjoyed a few more heated exchanges before their time was up. When they left the room, All Might took notice that some of the students weren't there any longer. Oh? Perhaps they already went to sleep? Well, that was a good idea he supposed. But for him, he couldn't sleep. No no. Not when he was quite needy for Mela.

So when his girlfriend mentioned how she forgot something back at home, he offered to take her there. As the teacher supervising and well a hero can't let a lady walk alone in the middle of the night, right? Yes, he was doing his job...totally. Holding her close, he did his best to focus on jumping back to her place though Mela was proving to give him quite a difficult time as her tender lips attacked his neck. Somehow, this was much harder to resist than fighting ten villains at once. Argh, hormones.

- It's already the morning? -

The next morning felt like a dream as Toshinori woke up with his sweet and cute girlfriend in his arms. He smiled down at her sleeping face before nuzzling closer to her as he enjoyed her warmth. Ah...this was nice. His heart was beating loudly in his chest as a light blush settled on his cheeks. Leaning down, he brushed his lips against her forehead before capturing her soft lips before murmuring out, "good morning beautiful...how did you sleep?" He smiled down at her as he sat up and ran a hand through her hair. Giving her a grin, he nudged her to go shower as he told her, "I'll make us breakfast, you can go ahead and shower first." After all, today was the rematches and he wanted to make sure she ate plenty for the match!

Spinning the bottle as Shoto instructed her, she silently hoped Momiji would give them a chance at this little game of his and so when it did land on her Shoto, Ruka smiled happily. Though Shoto seemed more eager than her as he was quick to head to the closet. Ruka walked at a calmer pace as she held back a giggle at his eagerness. How cute. Though on the inside, she was just as excited as he is. Once the door was closed on them, Ruka let out a soft sound as her back hit the innermost wall of the closet. She wrapped her arms around her King as she smiled up at him, "mmm show me what you got babe." Would she regret those words? Probably not. Hehe.

A shiver raced down her back at his words. Her eyes shined as she grinned up at him, "oh, I don't plan for us to either." She always did love it when they were both on the same page for things. Moaning softly at her lover's gentle caresses, Ruka ran her hands through his hair, leaning up to kiss him sweetly on the lips. The two enjoyed each other for a while longer before their time was up. Making sure they were at least presentable, the two left the closet. Ruka noticed immediately that Mela was nowhere to be seen and so was All Might. Her eyes narrowed slightly in suspicion but before she can think it through, she found herself being pulled by Shoto and away from the party. Huh? Giggling slightly at his impatience, Ruka waved to the others before getting in the car. Arriving at her place, she smirked at Shoto's words. Happily, she complied as she murmured out softly, "let the fun begin~"

- Saturday...oh yes, rematches! -

Waking up the next morning, Ruka found her body to be a bit sore, but nothing a hot shower can't fix! Or her lover's touch hehe. Rolling onto her side, she leaned up and kissed Shoto sweetly on the lips, making sure he was wide awake. Heh. Smiling up at him as she ran her hand through his hair, gently combing his short locks, "morning love, I think I'm in need of a hot shower~" Her muscles were screaming at her for that. The two had a nice steaming shower and while Shoto got changed, Ruka headed off to the kitchen to get breakfast started. She had a feeling Mela wasn't home. Cooking up a light but filling breakfast, the two got ready and headed off to school.

Ruka decided to wear a pair of white short shorts with thigh-high black socks and on top, she wore a deep wine red long-sleeved button-up shirt with the back being extra long that it reached up to the back of her knees while the front was kept short. Her shoulders were exposed while she had on a black belt with a bow on the back of it and knee-length white and golden boots. She wore a pair of short black gloves as she tied her hair up into a ponytail. She felt like dressing cute for today. Smiling over at Shoto, she leaned up and kissed his lips before the two headed to school in his car. Leaning against his arm during the drive there, Ruka mumbled out, "do your best Shoto, I'm cheering for you. I know you can do it hehe." But she was certain her lover would win.

Since when did this start? Shota couldn't quite recall when these feelings began to grow within him, but he knew he had been under Ayumi's spell for quite some time. It wasn't just an overnight thing, that much was for sure. Maybe it was how he just expected her to be there for him all the time, or how he expected her to always nag him. Having her around was as normal as breathing air he supposed. Perhaps this little spell of her's has been cast since the first time that they've met. Maybe, but Shota really wasn't the type to dwell too much on such thoughts, he simply acted on what he felt was right for that moment. And right now, he thought it felt right to kiss Ayumi. Maybe she can be the key to healing this broken heart of his, but the question is did he want that?

Hearing her answer, Shota smirked back at her as he moved over to sit behind her on her broom. His strong arms wrapped snugly around her thin waist as he pulled her to lean into his chest. Closing his eyes, he enjoyed her calming scent as they flew off to her place. Hm, perhaps he did want her to heal his heart. Maybe she can show him a different sort of love? One that isn't wrapped with the idea of soulmates. Yes, this was a more free form of love, one that fits him a little more than soulmates. During the ride back to her place, Shota would place light kisses along her neck as his hands continued to gently massage her hips. Arriving back at her place, Shota followed her inside to her bedroom and well the rest he will keep a secret for now. Heh.

- Saturday, the next morning -

The sun gently shined through the curtains of the window as Shota's eyes squinted slightly in annoyance. Holding back a grumble, he turned onto his side and finding the source of his warmth, he pulled it closer to him. Breathing in deeply, he smelled the calming scent of old books and was that incense? Eyes slowly opening, Shota realized that his warmth was not a thing but rather a person. He blinked a few times as he looked down to see a sleeping Ayumi in his arms. Oh right, he sort of just happened to stay the night. He watched her sleeping face for a while longer before smirking slightly. She can be pretty cute and docile when asleep. Pressing a soft kiss to her forehead, Shota woke her up as he murmured out, "Ayumi, wake up....or else we can't enjoy the pancakes and some more before work." Ah yes, today was the rematches and Shota silently told himself to attend it. Perhaps now he can, with Ayumi besides him.

Having enjoyed a nice breakfast cooked by Ayumi and a little more tasting of each other, the pair flew off to U.A. He was still in his hero costume from yesterday, but thankfully he always wore that for the most part. Arriving there, he noted that half if not most of his students looked rather out of it. He lifted a brow at this but spoke up, as he stood in between All Might and Ayumi, "listen up, today is the rematches so you guys better show me what you have. And remember, the outcomes of today's match will be sent to your school as well, exchange students." With that said, Shota headed inside. His eyes landed on Mela's form and he honestly wasn't sure what to feel. A bit of a sting was there, but he noticed it was a lot less compared to before...that was progress, right? Glancing over at Ayumi, he nudged her lightly as he told her, "let's go inside." He's noticed All Might was looking a lot happier as well..did something happen? Ah, whatever. For now, he'll just focus on the matches and he hoped his students made him proud. For every loss his student has against the exchange students was the higher chance for a pop quiz. Yes, they better prove him wrong and win it all.

Handing Denki the bottle, Namie watched him spin it and it soon landed on her. She smiled happily at that, sending Momiji a smile in silent thanks. Before she can even try to get up, Denki let out a loud cheer and carried her into the closet, causing her to giggle while Eijiro shook his head at his friend's antics. Once inside the closet, Namie wrapped her arms around his neck as she enjoyed his light yet sweet kisses. She giggled at the little electric shocks sent in each kiss as she agreed with him, "mmhmm, but now you have me~" She smiled up at him as she kissed him back, just happy to have this moment with him finally~ Though he did kiss her plenty even while they were waiting, somehow the closet seemed a bit more...thrilling?

Opening her mouth, she accepted his roaming tongue as she let out a soft moan. When he began to tease her neck while asking her to stay the night at his place, Namie couldn't answer him properly at first. Through several soft moans, she finally answered him, "mmm, of course, I would love to." If anything, she was intending on doing that, to begin with. Ehe. After sharing a few more shocking kisses, the couple left the closet hand to hand. She smiled over at Eijiro and while the rest of the students were watching the bottle spin for their next set of victims, Namie and Denki were able to slip away. She'll have to thank Eijiro again later hehe. Entering his room, she smiled at his nervous question as she greeted Peachy before answering him while gently pushing him down onto the bed, "yeah, we can both fit in it hehe." Her eyes gleamed as she licked her lips though the question was...would they be getting much sleep?

- Saturday, Go Denki-kun! -

Teal hues fluttered open slowly as Namie let out a small sound. Mm? What time was it...? And where was she? She blinked a few times as she felt a strong pair of arms holding her in place. Hearing the soft breathing noise beside her, she turned to see it was Denki. She smiled at the sight of his sleeping face, finding it to be adorable. Giggling, she turned around in his arms and nuzzled into him. Ah, this was nice. Waking up next to him just felt so...perfect. Smiling, she gave off a mischievous grin as she decided to wake up her boyfriend like a good girlfriend would do~

After making sure Denki was ready for the match, the two headed off to the gym, but first, food. She greeted Eijiro and the others in the dining area where they all had some breakfast. Once everyone was full and ready, they headed off to the gym. Namie stood beside Denki as she listened to what the teacher had to say. Smiling over at Denki, she hugged him tightly as she leaned up and murmured into his ear, "you'll do great, I just know it. You're my hero after all hehe." Pulling back, she smiled up at him as she gave him a sweet kiss on the lips. Tugging on his hand, they headed inside.

Genkai Genkai
 
It was quite a comfort to fall asleep in someone'e arms. Mela enjoyed cute, amusing dreams filled with cats and dogs and even bunnies. When morning came, she curled closer to Toshinori, resting her forehead against his chest as she let out a light murmur. When she felt lips against her forehead, she realized where she was and who she was with. A smile crept over her lips as she felt Toshi kiss her. "Mmm morning." SHe opened her eyes to see Toshinori sitting up. Why couldn't they just stay in bed a little longer? Mela stretched and let out a small yawn. Yes, staying in bed was better than fighting this morning. "I slept really well." She pushed herself to sit up, ignoring her inner thoughts telling her to just go back to bed and make Toshi keep her company. "Aww okay." Mela nodded as she got up to get showered while he cooked for them.

Getting up, she quickly headed off to shower. She had her change of clothes thankfully and slipped into them. She had on a pair of short shorts, much like Ruka, though Mela's were a light denim. She had on a black tank top which had a bit of a dovetail behind her which reached the back of her mid-calves. She quickly dried her hair and headed out to eat with Toshi. They enjoyed breakfast together, just holding hand and eating. When Toshi went off to change, Mela took care of the dishes and clean up and soon they were ready to go. Once he changed into All Might, Mela found herself already at school. That was quick heh. Heading off with All Might, Mela spotted Ruka and ran over to her, giving her friend a big hug. She missed Ruka terribly and hoped she wasn't worried. "I know you'll do so great!" She assured Ruka.

Letting go, Mela turned and spotted several others who looked like they hadn't gotten any sleep heh. Even Deku and Bakugo looked a bit sluggish and grumpy. Well to Mela, Bakugo always looked grumpy. Her heart stopped when she saw Shota with Ayumi and All Might. She didn't expect him to show up for the rematches...she offered him a slight smile before she headed off with everyone to go inside and get ready but Ayumi-sensei spoke up and Mela made a face. What? No costumes? But gear was okay? Phew. She could see Tenya a bit sad since he didn't get his suit of armor. She wondered how Ruka and Shoto would fare since they needed their clothes to deal with their quirks. Mela's costume was more for the cute factor, but she was working with the support team to get some new items to help her get from high places she'd climb up to.

Mela grabbed her bow and arrows and elected to go first, well actually Momiji was the one who raised his hand and hers together. Mela headed to the stage and was quite glad she hadn't packed a dress. She looked to Momiji who seemed fairly hyper though she had to wonder if he had gotten much sleep after she and Toshinori left. Something told her Momiji had been playing pranks on people, based on some sharpie heart marks on Kyo's face heh. The blonde offered her some words before he began to run around. Mela held her ground and dug her feet in as she readied her bow, she would need to trip him up and pin him somehow. She'd have to make his advantage of speed her own advantage somehow. Seeing a flash of sandy hair, Mela fired and missed. She then threw out a smokebomb and an explosive, watching carefully from afar.

Spotting some activity as the smoke cleared, Mela took aim and managed to hit Momiji in the arm. Running towards him, she grabbed his arms and spun him out of the ring. The hit wasn't very deep and with Namie-san on standby, Mela was glad to see Momiji smiling in ten seconds flat. She nudged the boy and told him it was their practicing that made trained her to better spot his movements. The smoke and fire helped too though. Next Honda-san and Todoroki were up. Mela glanced over and narrowed her eyes. Why did it seem like Ayumi was eyeing Aizawa-sensei more than usual? Mela had an inkling about them before she broke up with him. But that didn't matter. No no. Shota looked a little less sad so that was good. Yes, very good. She shook her head and found herself smiling once more when she looked to All Might. They had to go out after this and celebrate her victory! Mela watched Todoroki fight but it looked stranged. He seemed a bit stiff and almost robotic in his moments. It wasn't like him at all. When he won, Mela offered a supportive smile to Honda-san, who Momiji went off to comfort and hug a bit too tightly. Next was Ruka's match. "Gooo Ruka!" She called out. Of course she wanted Ruka to be careful too. Aw she was so conflicted.

- - -

The night had been quite enjoyable for Shoto Todoroki. For many many reasons. He and Ruka were able to escape the trappings of Momiji Sohma and make it to her place. They enjoyed their time together without any further delay or interruption. And then they discussed the possibility of moving in together in the near-future. That whole concept made him quite happy. For starters, he'd get to enjoy Ruka a lot more. He could wake up and fall asleep in her arms and they could cook and clean together too. And go to school together and just hang out and study too. Ahh like a married couple, er a serious couple. Slow down there Shoto. But also he would be out of his father's house and finally living on his own. His father would probably want to help out with the finances but Shoto wanted to make his own money. He wanted to be independent.

So he would look into doing some tutoring on the side for his fellow students or those in the general area who might be attending middle school or other high schools. He could start saving now and soon they'd be ready to merge their lives together. Ruka did mention she could give him a key and they decided they could try out him staying over on and off to see how things went which sounded good to them both. Come morning, he found himself waking up to a hand running through his hair. Smiling to Ruka, he tried to blink away his sleep but what really did the trick was the shower his girlfriend suggested. Oh, he decided that was a great way to start their Saturday together. As he got into a pair of jeans and a simple black tee shirt with a grey bar across his torso, Ruka handled breakfast. How sweet~

He really was spoiled heh. Once they ate, he cleaned up and they drove back to school, with Ruka leaning against him. "Thanks. I'm sure you'll do well too. After school gets out, we should go to our cafe, grab a bit to eat?" He wasn't sure what they would do but he was happy as long as they were together. He parked and walked with her over to the gym and stood close to Ruka as Mela came over, giving him a look as she hugged Ruka. After Aizawa said what needed to be said, Ayumi then spoke up too. He frowned and looked to Ruka and her long legs, thankful she didn't have a shirt or dress on. Phew. He was concerned about him not having his clothes to regulate his ice and fire. Nor his special shoes. And he knew Ruka would be in a bind without fireproof clothes too. But Ayumi-sensei did have a point...they had to be prepared to fight at a moment's notice.

Shoto didn't have any gear to use since his went with his outfit so he stood with Ruka and watched as Uede went against the mischievous blond. Shoto was surprised Uede won but maybe Momiji was just a bit slower because he had been up the night before? Shoto rubbed his neck, hoping he didn't lose against Honda. But he and Ruka weren't up too late right? Maybe before big days they'd have to start their nights a bit earlier? Eheh. He decided to go and leaned over to kiss Ruka on the cheek before he headed down. He started the battle off by launching a wall of jagged ice toward Tohru who jumped out of the way. Shoto's hand lingering on the ice and Tohru reached out and touched it, using it to read Shoto's fierce feelings and then dispel them. Blinking, Shoto didn't know what came over him but his drive suddenly just left his body as he dropped his arm.

Tohru ran towards him and Shoto threw a burst of fire without even thinking. Tohru ducked and slid for his legs. Shoto made an icy pillar and got out of the way, his body somehow just moving on autopilot. Tohru was trying to grab Shoto directly, trying to give him an emotional like sadness or defeat, or even sleepiness. But Shoto was quick and a feeling of anxiety had replaced his primary feeling of confidence and competitiveness. While Tohru was a lot more quick and tactical, she was no match for Shoto's sheer strength as he encased her in a large block of ice and the match was called. He quickly melted her though she had some light burns on her arms which Namie helped treat. Tohu reached over and placed a hand on Shoto's shoulder, giving him the feeling of a job well done. "You did well." Tohru smiled. Shoto nodded, his head still a bit messed up when Tohru had taken his emotion from him. It was very unsettling. He no longer doubted Tohru's heroic abilities heh. Standing back with Ruka, he put an arm around her, needing her warmth now more than ever. He kissed her cheek again before she headed off to fight against Yuki-san. "You'll do great, love." He said softly as he watched her, cheering for her along with Uede as Kaminari was a bit preoccupied.

- - -

Rest was welcomed after a long night of...not patrolling. Urgh her agency was going to lecture her for skipping work and then not checking in before she went home. Oh well. Aizawa was worth the trouble. He was quite good in bed and she was hoping to have some more fun before work. Thank goodness it was a half-day. Though part of her wanted to leave it to All Might and just keep Aizawa all to herself. If she was forceful enough, that could happen right? But she also needed him to start doing his job again while meant scaring the crap out of his students and making sure none of them slacked off. Ayumi could only threaten them so much but Aizawa was so much better at keeping the kids in line, mostly the guys. Ayumi had a feeling some guys like Mineta got under her skin on purpose so she could discipline them.

Once she made them breakfast and they had a bit more fun together, she got changed and flew them back to UA. The best thing about flying was she could sleep in as late as she wanted and still make it to work on time. Ayumi had on black pants, a black sleeveless tank top and her black robe and hat. It almost looked like she was dressed for mourning. She looked at the sluggish students and shook her head. Kids. All Might looked even happier than usual, if that was possible. She shook her head and once Aizawa had addressed the students, she spoke up. "Oi! Your costumes are locked up. You will get your support items but you'll be fighting in whatever you're wearing. As heroes, you may not always be fully prepared to fight." She said. She noted Ochako in her frilly skirt was looking rather red-faced.

"Did...I forget to mention that yesterday?" Ayumi smiled and laughed. Of course she didn't mention it on purpose. They all headed inside and Uede and Sohma Momiji went first. Ayumi glanced to Shota curiously, mostly wondered where his head, and well, his heart were. Probably focused on Uede huh? She held back a grumble as she floated between the two male pro heroes and watched Mela end the fight quicker than expected. She seemed pretty peppy this morning too. She looked from Shota to All Might and grinned. My, this was interesting. With Todoroki now up against a rather emotional brunette, Ayumi gave Shota another look. "You wanna grab lunch after this?" She asked him, not sure if they were exclusive or a one thing hookup. But why not ask? Why waste time wondering? If he wanted to hangout, it meant they might be dating? She held back the urge to brush some of his hair out of his face. But did she really have to keep her hands to herself? Deciding she shouldn't have to, Ayumi reached over and brushed her fingers along Shota's back shyly as Todoroki wrapped up his own fight.

- - -

The night for Denki had been electric. And he knew Namie felt the same way. The feelings between them both had been quite charged hehe. He was very happy he could have her all to himself after a bit of fretting after seeing her with some others in the closet. But back at his dorm, there wasn't any doubt how they felt about the other. Denki was so happy he could fall asleep holding Namie-chan in his arms. She was so soft and cozy and smelled so sweet, like a meadow full of flowers. Denki dreamed he was a cute little Eevee running around in flowers, having epic pokemon battles before he went off to take on some Gym Leader. It was a pretty awesome dream. Normally Denki didn't remember his dreams and yet somehow, this one stuck with him. When he opened his eyes, he smiled at Namie.

Oh yes, he could get used to this. Maybe tonight they could go over to her place? "G'morning babe." He smiled to her. Was there really any better way to wake up? He held her close before she decided on waking him up in a very different way. He grinned at her. Oh yes, he could really get used to this. Once he and Namie were presentable, he headed off to the cafeteria with her. A few people seemed intrigued by Namie hanging around but it soon dawned on everyone she had somehow stayed the night with Kaminari. Thankfully Iida-san lived at home and couldn't lecture them for breaking the rules and no one else was going to snitch right? Denki held Namie close as they ate and chatted about what they might do today after the matches. Maybe a movie and some laser tag? Or sushi? Or just going to her house maybe? Eheh.

Heading over to the gym, Denki proudly held Namie's hand, still grinning ear to ear. Thankful for Namie's words and kiss for good luck, he headed inside to get some of his items he was allowed. He stood by Namie as the matches progressed. At the end of Mela-san's, Namie was called to heal a minor wound on a boy's arm. Then she was needed to a minor ice burn on Honda-san. Denki didn't like that Namie felt the pain of others. It wasn't fair, he hated seeing her hurt but he knew Namie loved helping others and would sacrifice her own comfort for the sake of others. He held her close as Ruka went with Sohma Yuki to the stage. Denki nuzzled his face in Namie's neck as he held her tightly, her back resting against his chest. He was nervous about his own fight and hoped he didn't need Namie to heal him too. He would make sure to fight safely but also win. "I can't wait to hear you cheer for me some more." He said into her ear as Ruka continued to fight, already thinking back to last night's activities. Denki was going to win and he was going to make Namie proud. He just wished he could watch her own fights. Maybe one of these days he could? But could his heart take it?

AiAi AiAi
 
Cooking up a simple breakfast, Toshinori smiled over at the freshly showered Mela, blushing slightly at her wet hair. Ah, she looked good like that too. Well, in truth, Toshinori thought she looked good in just about anything. Ehe. After eating and enjoying each others company for a while longer, Toshinori changed into simple dark blue jeans and a dark grey v-neck shirt. Changing into his muscle form, All Might carried Mela off to U.A. occasionally sneaking a kiss here and there. As they arrived, he went over to greet Aizawa and Ayumi before standing by them in front of the students. He smiled over at Mela and held back a chuckle as he noted almost everyone looking quite tired. Well, they had fun last night so All Might won't go scolding them. It was a good thing to let loose once in a while after all.

When he heard Ayumi mention casual clothes for today's matches, he looked over at Mela and was relieved to see her wearing pants. Good. That was good. But her pretty legs were still on display. Holding back a frown, All Might greeted his students before heading inside. He noted that Aizawa looked a bit less moody today and Ayumi looked a bit happier. Then again, he was quite happy himself so he can't go pointing fingers or anything like that. As Mela and Momiji Shounen went first, All Might watched on rather proudly and he was clapping happily when Mela was the victor. He gave her a sweet smile and hug when she came back up and watched the rest of the matches take place. For some of the matches, he was a bit more on edge since their quirks would prove to be more of a personal obstacle than fighting itself without their costumes and gears, but it was always a pleasure to see his students prove him wrong and show their progress to him over and over again. Though he couldn't help but notice just how close Ayumi and Aizawa were. He glanced over at Mela briefly wondering if she took notice and if she did...then how was she reacting to it? Oh but no no, he should really just focus on the matches and afterward, he hoped to take Mela out for a nice lunch for winning her match! He smiled at that thought, quite excited for it already. Hehe.

- - -

The party yesterday night was a success and it was just so so so much fun! Momiji had a blast and for most of the night, no one had any sleep. Momiji told them that everyone had to be on an equal level of tiredness so it will be a fair match tomorrow and well most actually agreed with his logic. Ehe. So when Saturday morning did come, most of 3-A along with the exchange students were quite tired. Spotting Mela, Momiji skipped on over to greet her. Today he was more boyish than usual as he wore a pair of dark blue shorts, a light blue sweater, and some sneakers. He smiled over at Mela in greeting and before he can even go off to tease her about her and her hero boyfriend, the teachers arrived and spoke up. At the mention of casual clothes, Momiji grinned as he noted some girls to be wearing skirts. Aw, too bad he didn't wear his skirt, ehe.

When asked who to volunteer first, Momiji raised his hand while his other held up Mela's as he excitedly spoke up, "oh me me! Mela-chan and I want to go first please!" Excited, Momiji headed over to the stage. He gave her a wink as he told her, "catch me if you can, Mela-chan~ If not, you owe me a date. Hehe." He blew her a playful kiss before starting his little run as their match began. He was doing quite fine at his speed for now but when Mela began to shoot things at him, he increased his speed a bit more. As she threw a smoke bomb, Momiji decided to just run through it and tackle her out of the ring when he felt a sudden pain to his arm. He lowered his guard at that moment as he was caught quite off guard with her aim and before he knew it, he was thrown out of the ring just like that. As he landed on the ground, Momiji sat there for a bit before chuckling to himself. Ah, well she got him there.

Walking off the stage, the pretty healer came over and healed him up. As she placed her hands on his arm, Momiji's teary eyes were soon shining with amazement as there wasn't an ounce of pain felt when she healed him. Giving her a big hug, Momiji thanked her before jumping over to Mela. He grinned up at her as he nudged her back while saying, "your aim is top notch! Good job, Mela-chan!" He ran over to his cousins to cry to them as he cheered his cousins on and Tohru as well. He smiled as he found these matches to just be so so fun!

- - -

As the two arrived at school, Ruka's light blue hues scanned the crowd for her best friend. Spotting her, Ruka was relieved to know Mela was fine and seeing her friend so happy made Ruka smile in turn. She smiled over at Mela as she hugged her back and chuckled as she told Mela, "thanks and I know you'll do just fine." She gave Mela one last hug before returning to Shoto's side. She couldn't help but narrow her eyes at how happy All Might seemed. Urgh, she will have to speak with Mela soon and then seeing Aizawa and Ayumi rather close too...Ruka couldn't help but wonder what on earth was going on. Something was definitely going on, but when Ayumi mentioned fighting in their street clothes, well that got Ruka to focus on something else entirely. She held back a frown as she was both lucky and well unlucky. She was glad to have worn shorts and comfortable shoes today, but then she now had a new problem of her clothes and her quirk.

She glanced over more concerned for Shoto but she gave him a reassuring smile. They can make it through. She was sure of it. She watched Mela head off to fight Momiji first, cheering for her best friend. She knew Mela can do it, her friend was smart and quick. She smirked as she saw Mela toss Momiji out the ring and she knew that must have felt good for Mela. Her friend has been tossed way too many times out the ring and Ruka knew that wasn't fun. The Pinkette recalled how Yuki tossed her out the ring during their first match. Ruka's eyes hardened as she was determined to win today's match. She kissed Shoto, "you'll do great. I'll be cheering for you love." Ruka told him sweetly as she watched him head down to fight Tohru. Though as Ruka was standing there, she felt a shiver run down her back. H-Huh? She glanced about her but seeing nothing wrong, she turned her attention back to Shoto's match. Why did she have that bad feeling growing in the pit of her stomach? She just couldn't get rid of the shivers as if she felt a pair of eyes watching her every move. It only happened when...but no no. He was busy. He wouldn't be here....right? Right.

As Shoto suddenly seemed to go limp, Ruka looked rather concerned. Is this what Tohru's quirk can do? Somehow, it was quite a dangerous quirk on its own. It was no wonder Yuki spoke so highly of Tohru. Ruka noticed Yuki smile over at her and she smirked in response. But no, she trusted Shoto and knew he will make it out as the winner. And win he did. Ruka cheered for him and went over to make sure he was fine. She leaned into his hold as she smiled over at him, "great job, Shoto. You did good, really." She wasn't sure what he was feeling, but she hoped she can help him feel better. But she couldn't stay there much longer as a slender hand reached out for her. Yuki as always, politely asked her if they can fight next to which Ruka responded with a smirk as she took his hand, "of course. I was planning on going next anyway." Watching Shoto and Mela fight, Ruka was itching for her turn...though once again a shiver ran down her back as she couldn't shake that feeling away. Urgh.

Facing Yuki on the stage, Ruka tugged on her gloves as she smiled over at Yuki, "no hard feelings, alright, Prince-kun?" she teasingly used his hated nickname as their match began. Not wanting to use her quirk right off the bat, Ruka ran in to close the gap between them and began to engage in a hand-to-hand combat with Yuki. But the lilac-haired Prince was using his quirk to mess up her movements much to Ruka's annoyance. Her punch would veer off to the side just a tad or her foot placement would slip a bit. It was frustrating. She decided to mix up her attacks as she would deliver a punch only for her arm to slide and just then she added a burst of flames to her bare arm to catch Yuki off guard. It seemed to work the first few times but now it was backfiring on her as she now had to dodge her own flames. She was already being careful to use small amounts of her flames so as to not burn her clothes off but to also not harm Yuki greatly. She got a few scratches on him with her flames while he got in a few kicks her way.

Yuki seemed to have had enough as he suddenly picked Ruka up using his quirk and she knew where he was taking her. She was waiting for this the whole time. She gave Yuki a smirk as she spoke up, "finally! I was getting tired waiting for you honestly." It'll be a bit of a sacrifice on herself, but it wasn't that bad...hopefully. Flames burst out of her as she propelled herself back towards the stage using the burst of her flames. She didn't plan on using her flames as an offensive, no no. She was going to use it to help her out this time around. Jumping back down onto the stage, Ruka grinned as there were a few bits of flames left on her, but no matter. "Now, it's my turn." Rushing towards Yuki, Ruka wasn't sure if he can control two things at once, but she was going to test out whether he can control himself. Sending a flaming kick his way, she grabbed his hand and threw him over her shoulder, aiming to toss him out the ring. But as she expected, Yuki used his quirk to float himself into the air. Grinning, her eyes zeroed in on his arm, burning the spot up as she then created a large wall of flames to make sure he can't easily fly back inside. Given no other option, Yuki was forced to land outside the ring. If he tried to fly back in, she would just have to keep using her eyes to light him up.

Panting slightly as she used up quite a lot of her quirk, Ruka's eye stung but it wasn't anything too bad. Thankfully, she only burned his arm for a brief moment before canceling so her eye wasn't bleeding. Coughing slightly a bit of blood trailed down her lips. Ah...her insides were burnt slightly huh? Controlling her flames took a lot out of her. Smiling, Ruka held her hand out to shake as she told him, "it was a nice match, Prince-kun. Looks like the Queen won though." She grinned cheekily at him, handing him over to Namie to heal as Ruka reassured the girl she was fine. It was just a little burn inside of herself, nothing that anyone really knew or saw. Walking over to Shoto, Ruka gave him a smile as she then took notice of her outfit. There were a few holes in her thigh highs but other than that nothing too bad. Okay, so the front of her shirt got a bit shorter, revealing her stomach slightly but nothing bad. Yup, all good. Hugging him, Ruka mumbled out, "I'm hot, Shoto~ Can you cool me down~?" She smiled up at him, ignoring the chilling feeling that she felt once again.

Shota looked rather amused when Ayumi mentioned that they'll have to fight in their street clothes. Well, he supposed her logic made sense and the looks on his students' faces were quite worth it. He shook his head lightly as he headed inside the gym, finding no reason to stop Ayumi from making her decisions. As everyone gathered inside, Shota waited to see who would volunteer first. He smirked at the young Momiji's excitement though recalling his partner was Mela, his face cooled down a bit. He still wasn't really sure how to approach this. He still very much cared for Mela, but...glancing over at Ayumi he realized he had someone else besides him. Someone who has been by his side for quite some time now. Holding back a sigh, he glanced down at his clipboard as he looked at the previous matches results. Mela lost this one...now how will the first UA student show their worth?

He focused on the match silently, ignoring the various emotions that seemed to cross All Might's face. The blonde was being more annoying than usual. The match soon ended with Mela being the winner. Glad that the matches were starting off well, Shota wrote down the score and some notes to give to the exchange students school before watching the next fight. He glanced over at Ayumi as he heard her mention lunch. He smirked over at her as he reached out and tucked a stray strand of brown hair behind her ear as he answered her, "sure, you pick the place." As he turned his attention back to the fight, Shota blinked a bit when he felt a soft flutter against his back. He glanced over at Ayumi curiously and seeing her shy look, he simply smirked at her. Oh? So she did have a cute side hm?

As the matches continued, Shota noticed that Denki's girlfriend was constantly healing up the injured. He blinked a few times. He recalled her helping quite a lot during the I Island incident as well and knew it was thanks to her that his students came out safely. He glanced over at Ayumi as he nudged her before nodding towards Namie, "we should do something about her." Not in a bad way of course, "she's helped our students out many times over now...I think U.A. needs to step up and thank her in some way." Recovery Girl was not getting any younger, perhaps they can offer the green-haired girl a job or something? But Shota was bad at rewarding people and so he looked to Ayumi, "I'm bad at rewarding others and whatnot." Might as well just tell her that directly.
- - -

When Ayumi-sensei mentioned how everyone will be fighting in their street clothes, Namie glanced down at her attire and felt quite fortunate that she was not fighting. No no, she was just a regular guest of theirs and also their unannounced healer ehe. She watched Denki go grab some items while Namie waited for him. She noticed Ochako and a few other girls blushing as they were wearing skirts. She glanced down at her own attire which was a black denim overall skirt with an off shoulder white long-sleeved crop top underneath. Her hair was let down in soft waves as she wore a pair of black and white high tops. Holding onto Denki's hand, the pair walked in and found a spot to watch the match from. She watched as the students of class 3-A began their matches and right off the bat, someone got hurt. Namie gave off a concerned frown and when she was asked to heal his arm, she gave Denki a brief smile and squeeze of his hand before walking over to heal the blonde boy.

When she finished healing his arm, she let out a soft sound of surprise when he hugged her tightly, thanking her over and over again. She smiled softly in response, his happy smile is more than enough of a payment for her healing him. After that was healing the minor burns on Honda-san's arm. It didn't really hurt much for Namie as the injuries were all very minor in her opinion. Walking over to Denki's side, she let out a soft giggle as she felt Denki's face tickling her neck. She gave him a soft smile as she told him, "I'm fine, Denki-kun. So don't worry, okay?" Plus she liked to help others out. After Ruka and Yuki's match, Namie healed the lilac-haired boy as Ruka assured her that her injuries were fine. Namie couldn't help but wonder if the Pinkette knew what her healing quirk does? She recalled Ruka's being the most painful to heal along with Mela-chan's injuries during the I Island incident.

But no no, now wasn't the time to dwell on such things. Instead, she must focus on this certain match the most. Smiling, she leaned up and gave Denki a sweet kiss as she murmured out, "good luck, I know you can do it. I'll be cheering for you hehe." She smiled happily over at Denki and watched him head off for his match. It was hard for her to watch, but Namie never stopped cheering for Denki despite the occasional glances she would receive from Haru-san. Black or White Haru, the boy would look over at Namie before making a comment towards Denki. She frowned as she couldn't quite catch his words, but whatever it was didn't make Denki happy was for sure.

As the match ended with Denki being the winner, Namie cheered happily for him. Running into his arms, she kissed him and congratulated him but seeing Haru hurt, Namie gave Denki a slight smile, "I have to." She told him as she moved over to heal the monochrome haired boy. The boy stared silently at Namie as she healed him with a soft gentle smile on her lips. But when she finished, she was surprised when he gave her a soft hug and whispered something in her ear before giving her a soft kiss on the cheeks. She blinked a few times before moving over to hug onto Denki. She gave him a smile as she explained with a light laugh, "Haru-kun said he lost. Hehe." She was certain Denki knew what the boy was talking about.

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela watched the fight though she couldn't help but glance over to the teachers every so often. Just to make sure they'd step in if Ruka got carried away or if Yuki used his quirk too improperly. While these were serious fights, students weren't allowed to go all out for obvious reasons. And with two intense quirks, she was worried. Ruka fighting always worried Mela, not because she didn't have confidence in Ruka but because Ruka had so much power and passion that it could often take a toll on the pink haired girl. Mela wished she wouldn't push so hard. She couldn't help but notice though, that Ayumi and Shota seemed to be sharing some looks. But that didn't mean much right? No. It had been a while since he showed up to watch and grade the fights so it was good he was out getting some fresh air. She did miss him though.

She and Shota had been pretty inseparable leading up to their breakup. She wanted him to be happy though and if he was moving on then that was good. But she couldn't help but feel a bit strange if that person he moved on with was Ayumi. Hmm. But no, she would be happy for him, she wanted him to be happy with someone else. Shifting her focus to All Might, she smiled to him before she looked back to see the match had ended. Mela offered Ruka a quick thumbs up before others went. Soon it was time for Kaminari, he was the last one to go it seemed. Mela wasn't sure which to cheer for so she just focused on what she and All Might may do this afternoon. Lunch would be good. Maybe they could also catch a movie or go back to her place? When Kaminari's fight concluded, Mela decided they could have lunch, a movie and possibly go back to her place.

That seemed doable right? But All Might may be busy which she expected and understood. As the teachers dismissed them, though no one needed to change, four older adults approached the group. Mela smiled when she spotted Yukito. Oh, what was he doing here? she resisted the urge to run over and pester him as her eyes found a male with long silver hair, and two others with short dark hair, one was in a suit and the other in more lax attire. They introduced themselves as other Sohmas tied to Yuki and Kyo and the others. Mela noted the man in the suit reminded her a touch of Shota. He had the same, slightly sad eyes. Before Mela could take her leave with All Might quietly, she saw Momiji dragging over the man in the navy suit over to her, saying how she should meet the family doctor. "Um hello, it's nice to meet you. I'm Uede Mela."

Bowing, she said, "Your...cousins? Erm are very nice, we're going to miss them around here." Mela smiled politely. Mela gave Momiji a curious look. "It's so nice that you're here to support them and probably escort them back home this afternoon?"

- - -

Still feeling rather unsettled and a bit vulnerable and confused as to what Honda-san had done to him, Shoto was hoping to enjoy some more time with Ruka but it appeared Sohma Yuki had other plans. After a kiss on the cheek, he stood back and folded his arms to watch things unfold. He knew Ruka would be able to win. He still wasn't sure what their week of training had done but he had to imagine it had been a bit tougher than his week spent with Honda-san. Shoto was glad this week was over. It had been a very strange one with not as much alone time as he would like. Even though Mela seemed to be healing, they then had this exchange thrown in their faces. But next week things would be back to normal. He liked routine and things he could easily predicate and navigate.

He wouldn't need to share Ruka with any pesky outsiders either. As Ruka and Yuki fought, his eyes were locked on them both, not just concerned for Ruka's well being but he also was looking on as a student. He enjoyed watching the tactics of others. While he didn't take meticulous notes like Midoriya, he did value the knowledge in seeing his classmates fight. While he loved Ruka, they were still bound to be pitted against each other over the rest of the term and the next one. Though he couldn't hear what they were saying, he was sure she was enjoying herself. He knew she had been itching for her rematch against the Sohma. When she ended the fight by using her flames to ward off Yuki's attempts to get back into the ring, he smiled. It seemed like the fight turned out rather well for them both, well more for Ruka of course.

When Ruka returned to his side after escorting Sohma-san to Namie-san, he slipped arm arm around her. "Oh? Let me help." He smiled to her as he brought up his right hand to brush along her forehead, using his quirk to cool her off. "You did well, dear." He was impressed to see how she could use her quirk in other means, not just offense. A hero had to use their quirk in many different situations. Being able to adjust was what would change the tide of battle. Soon the matches were finally over and Shoto was about to suggest they go back to her place to pack but there was a sudden chill in the air. He frowned deeply at the sight of Yukito coming over. Why was he here? He really didn't think it was appropriate of Yukito to constantly flirt with his girlfriend. Who did that? But maybe Yukito would just leave? Yeah...unlikely. Damn.

Walking over with Ruka, he kept his mouth shut, letting Ruka handle her step-brother. He didn't pay mind to any of the other Sohmas. Until one approached them. Hm? Now who was this peppy perv? He introduced himself and offered to take them all out for lunch. Really? But why?!

- - -

Lunch after school. It was a date! Right? That's what couples did, they dated. In the daylight eheh. Ayumi blushed slightly when he brushed some hair behind her ear. If he wasn't careful, she might do something else with his finger. As the fights began to wrap up, Ayumi looked to Shota when he nudged her. Huh? She blinked. Oh right, the girl who liked hanging around Kaminari-kun? "Yeah I'll talk to Nezu and see what we can arrange." Maybe a job was too much at her young age but an internship under Medical Girl might be something during after school hours. It was a shame no healers at their own school were stepping up the way Namie-san was. It was impressive. But maybe ayumi could help the healer in a more practical way. Ayumi was an advocate for more women healers and heroes and she was sure Namie could use a crash course in combat.

Maybe she could help the girl on the weekend and teach her a bit of quick means to attack and defend. A good healer needed to handle themselves on the front lines after all. As everyone was about to go their own ways, four strange men came up and Ayumi frowned. They got past security so they had to know someone. They all seemed a bit annoying save for the man in the suit who was at least letting the others speak. Glancing to Shota, she nudged him back. This really wasn't their concern right? "Come on, let's go grab lunch." She said as she held out her broom. Surely Shota had no reason to linger and see whatever unfolded. Once he wrapped his arms around her, she flew off towards the downtown area and flew them down to a place that serves strews and soups. It was a bit windy out, so why not?

She was still looking forward to having fun with Mela-chan next week, even if she had snagged Shota finally, it was a bit less personal at least heh. "So Shota, now that we're dating, how do you think a playdate with Mi and Nazo would be?" She asked him as they headed inside to sit at a table and look at what might warm their stomachs. "I think they'd be cute friends. They love some socialization I'm sure." Ayumi decided she could get a simple beef and vegetable stew? It could be yummy. And some bread too of course. And some hot tea too!

Knowing how much pain Namie could be in when she healed others, made his heart ache. He was determined to make sure he didn't use too much of his quirk and hurt Haru but that he also didn't short circuit either. It really was a tricky line to walk but he didn't want to burden Namie further. No, he was her boyfriend and he would do his best to keep her safe and free from harm. Plus it was an interesting challenge to fight while making sure to be extra careful. He gave Namie a worried look once she healed up Yuki-san. He didn't want her doing too much. Whatever pain she felt, he felt too. His shoulders slouched even though she tried to assure him. She was too kind sometimes. Did she have to keep putting everyone's needs above her own? It wasn't fair to her or his timid heart. Why couldn't he help his healer more? Oh how he wished he could.

Waving to Namie, he headed off to finish up the morning's rematches. He and Haru threw a lot of punches at one another, Denki added bursts of electricity to his attacks while Black Haru shot back taunts. "So you and Namie are so close now huh? You better not lose to me or I'm taking her." Haru smirked as he charged at the blond. "She's not something to take, she's a person." Denki huffed as he landed a hard punch to Haru's face, leaving a hard bruise which likely paralyzed him. Oops. He headed down and saw Namie coming towards them. His emotions got the better of him and now Namie had to endure the pain Haru did because of Denki. He watched the two, trying not to get too jealous. He shuffled around and put an arm back around Namie once she returned to him. "Heh I guess so." Denki smirked lightly before kissing her forehead.

"Let's get out of here." He said, not needing to really stay and deal with whoever these newcomers were. They seemed more concerned with their family and Uede and Kurotsuki. He recognized the guy from the food festival a while back and from Uede's party. Denki headed off with Namie downtown, deciding they could have some fun before hiding away and having another date night together. This time with no pesky Sohmas lurking. "So where should we eat, Namie-chaaan~? What does my girlfriend feel like eating?" Heh.

- - -

Yuki wasn't surprised at Ruka's tactics, they had been able to get to know one another's tendencies over the past few days. He was trying to limit his quirk's use, not wanting to have another coughing fit. And he could tell Ruka was trying to minimize her flame's damage. Yuki decided to try and keep distance but that still didn't help matters. In the end, her defense with the flames became too much for Yuki and he had to take the loss. Still, it was a learning experience for him and he was grateful for it, despite some of the stinging and bruises and cuts he now had. He smirked lightly at her comment, quite glad that no one else could hear them. Kyo would be merciless if he could hear them heh. He smiled to Ruka lightly as they made sure he was healed up. "Thank you so much, Amamiya-san." Yuki sighed as the pain left him in about ten or fifteen seconds.

The rest of the fights progressed and soon it was time to go. Before he could gather his family plus Honda-san to get them back to the train station, he head someone call out to him. "Oooh Yuki-kuuun~!" He froze. What? He slowly turned and saw his older and flamboyant brother, Ayame coming toward him. Ayame had on a long pink robe with frills while Shigure had on black jeans and a casual tee shirt despite being too old for sure casual fashions. At least Hatori had to common decency to come in a navy suit. He noticed Hatori had his bag with him in case Yuki had collapsed. And someone else was there too? Yuki wondered what they were doing here but before he could say anything, Shigure strode over to Kurotsuki and held out his hand to her, smiling. "I saw your fight against Yuki-kun, you did very well, miss."

"You must let me take you and your friends out to lunch." Shigure blurted out, looking to how Ruka and Shoto were so close as well as Yukito, Ayame's little designer buddy. Hehe. "For putting up with Kyo and everyone." There was a sudden shout from Kyo in the background. Before Yuki could warn Shoto or Ruka about the pervy nature of Shigure, he found himself busy with Ayame who began to babble about how his fight had been and how shameful his younger brother was in representing his family and how Akito would be quite displeased to hear this. Yuki held back a roll of his eyes, trying to tune out the silver haired man's words. This day was just getting all the more annoying it seemed. He looked around, worried Ritsu might pop up somewhere.

AiAi AiAi
 
Given the keys by Aizawa, All Might watched with slightly curious eyes as the dark-haired hero left with Ayumi somewhere. Huh? Why did he get a feeling that there was something going on between those two as more than just between two teachers and professional heroes? He glanced over at Mela, wondering how she took it but it seemed she was having her hands full with something or rather someone else. Seeing the mischevious grin on Momiji Shounen's lips, All Might walked over in quick, long strides as he had a bad feeling. He smiled over in greeting at the man in the suit as he heard Momiji Shounen speak up, "Mela-chan~ These are my cousins~! This is--" The tall male spoke up as he eyed both Mela and All Might. The blonde hero obviously came over because of the girl, Hatori wasn't about to get in the way of that. Though he introduced himself regardless, "Sohma Hatori, my cousins have been in your care...I hope they haven't caused you any trouble?" His lone green hue stared over at All Might before looking over at Mela as well.

All Might gave the man a smile as he replied, "oh not at all! It was a pleasure to have such young and talented students like your cousins! They were all very wonderful!" Some may have been a bit more trouble than most...but he supposed it wasn't an unwelcome trouble. It did help him and Mela after all. Hatori gave a curt nod in understanding while Momiji pouted. Though the pout was soon gone as an idea came to mind...but at hearing his other cousin, Shigure's idea, Momiji was quick to jump in on that, "oh! We should go too! We should all go!" Momiji tugged on Hatori and Mela's arms as he looked pleadingly up at them, "we should all go and eat with them, right? Right?" He gave a brief smirk over to All Might who looked a bit troubled as he was planning on a nice date with Mela...ah, well guess that'll have to be for next time. Hatori sighed softly as he looked down at his younger cousin before looking over at the overly excited Shigure and Ayame. What was those two planning? He glanced over at All Might and spoke up, "ah, well if you two don't mind, then please join us for lunch. I insist." He looked down at Mela, giving her a brief smile.

All Might smiled back as he looked down at Mela himself, "ah, well I don't mind. Did you want to go, Mela-chan?" He asked her as he lightly placed a hand on the small of her back. If she went, then he will go too. At least this way he can still have lunch with her as planned...just with a few more people is all.

- - -

Ruka smiled as Shoto cooled her down. So maybe she liked it when he spoiled her, only times like these though of course! But her little happy moment was soon crushed as she felt that chill once again. As she saw Yuki tense up, Ruka turned and saw three men she didn't recognize...along with Yukito. Her heart fell to the floor as she tensed up, a frown appearing on her lips. "Ru-chaaaaaaaaan!!!" Yukito yelled out as he rushed over to the Pinkette much like how the silver-haired male did to Yuki. He wrapped his arms around Ruka and picked her up, twirling her in the air. She winced slightly as her body was still hurting on the inside as she lightly bopped his head, "cut it out, Yukito...why are you here?" She was obviously not happy to have seen him, but it made a lot of sense why her entire clothes weren't covered in gaping holes. Did he somehow transfer his quirk at least a bit to her during her match? Urgh.

Ignoring her frown, Yukito set her down as he turned to face Shoto as well, "oh, you're here too, Tokimeki-kun~ How are you~? Don't tell me you're still playing the little game with my Princess?" He gave a slight snicker but he didn't have much time to taunt and tease Shoto much longer as not only did Ruka give him a rather nasty glare, but then that guy came barging into their conversation as well. Or rather, he was more focused on Ruka than anyone else. Yukito's honey hues narrowed slightly as he stood by Shoto, watching the black-haired male speak so closely to his Ruka. Ruka blinked a few times as one of Yuki's cousins came over. She placed her hand in his and shook it as she introduced herself, "Kurotsuki Ruka...oh thank you. And you are...?" The man smiled as he introduced himself, "I am Yuki's older cousin, Sohma Shigure! Please just call me Shigure, Ruka-chan." Ruka blinked, um okay?

At the offer of eating out, Ruka was about to decline when Yukito came barging in, breaking off their hands which Shigure was still holding on to. Yukito's eye twitched briefly as he smiled over at Shigure, "I'm invited too, right? Of course, I am....Tokimeki! You're coming too, right?" Yukito wasn't about to hand over his little sister to the likes of Shigure. He much rather she be in Shoto's care than this man. Ruka frowned as she didn't want to go if Yukito was going, but she thought it would be rude to decline. She glanced over at Shoto, "just lunch is fine...?" Surely they can run off after, right? Right...she'll just ignore the bad feeling about it all.

- - -

Shota was bad at thinking up gifts for others, but he knew enough that the girl deserved some sort of recognition. If it wasn't some sort of internship offer, then perhaps even a transfer to U.A. may be possible? The girl was showing obvious signs of a hero already after all. He'll just let Ayumi handle it for now, but he'll put in his own two cents to Principal Nezu some other time. As the matches ended, Shota was proud of his students. They have once again proven to him and to those outside of U.A. that they will always continue to better themselves. He smirked as he looked down at the match results, the complete opposite of the first matches of this week. Yes, he can say that he is proud of them. Dismissing the students, he took notice of a few visitors who had somehow sneaked in and seeing how one was Yukito, Shota tensed up slightly. Ah, why was he here? But wait, there was no need for him to worry about that man anymore.

Turning to Ayumi as he heard her, Shota nodded his head, "ah yeah. Let's go." He handed All Might the keys to lock up the gym. He gave Yukito and the others one last glance before getting on the broom. His arms wrapped around Ayumi's instantly and the two were soon off. He should be glad he doesn't have to get involved in that. That wasn't his problem any longer...so he should be glad, right? Arriving at a restaurant, Shota followed her inside. As he looked over the menu, he nearly ripped the menu in half when Ayumi mentioned a playdate between his cat and her's. He paused in looking over the menu as he looked over at her. "What?" He finally found his voice as he asked her to repeat the question. No, it wasn't the part about them dating, that much he knew, but it was more of something involving his cute Mi? Socialization? For some reason, Shota couldn't help but think Ayumi had other plans in terms of socialization.

Holding back a sigh, Shota ordered a cream stew in a bread bowl with a side of iced tea. He glanced over at Ayumi after they put in their orders, "Mi and Nazo huh? What are you planning?" His eyes narrowed slightly as he hoped she wasn't thinking of kittens or something like that!? His Mi was too young!

- - -

Things were going to be different now that she has Denki in her life. Namie knew she can't be too risky with her quirk usage, but she knew that pain was unavoidable. It was part of her quirk and if she wished to heal others, then feeling the pain of others was well..just a fact that she just can't get rid of. There was no way around it, unfortunately. As much as she doesn't want to worry Denki, it was something she knew the two will have to come to terms with. She didn't like seeing Denki sad because of her no less, but she needed Denki to know this was something she wanted to do. This was her hero way. But maybe she'll just have to keep on practicing so her tolerance goes up? Yes, that way she can withstand more pain and then she can increase her healing time and yes, that was good practice...right? She'll just need to talk it out with Denki one of these days.

As the matches ended with Denki as the victor, Namie spotted the group of men coming out from their hiding spot and she looked over at them curiously. Judging from how the Sohmas were acting along with Tohru and then Ruka's reaction, Namie assumed they all knew each other somehow. She turned her attention back to Denki as she felt his arm around her. She smiled up at him, blushing happily as he kissed her forehead. As they headed towards downtown, Namie felt a flutter in her chest at the mention of being his girlfriend. Smiling brightly over at him, she swung their connected hands with glee as she answered him after a moment of thinking, "mmm, I want burgers! Is that okay?" Was that not a good victory lunch? But having burgers and just relaxing sounded great to her hehe. As they stopped at the bus stop, Namie leaned up and whispered into his ear, "of course I haven't forgotten about your reward~" pulling back, she smiled up at him as she said, "let me know what you want~ Hehe." Anything he wanted she will gladly do.

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela glanced up when All Might joined them. "Ah yes, they were very interesting, it's always cool to see different quirks at work." Yuki's was very cool to see. She was sure Yuki would be an exceptional hero in the future. Though with the various quirks the family seemed to have, Mela had to wonder what Hatori-san could do. He was a doctor though that didn't mean he was a healer via quirk. Maybe he could move things with his mind just as Yuki-san? But she wouldn't pry, no no. When Momiji insisted they all go with Ruka and the others, Mela wasn't so sure. It seemed like a big crowd and she was worried it could become quite chaotic. In reality, she just wanted to have All Might all to herself this afternoon but if it was just lunch, then it couldn't be too bad right? Plus Hatori and the others did seem genuinely nice and wanting to treat them to food.

And a free meal she nor Toshi had to pay for? Why not? Mela gave Hatori a growing smile, "Aw that's very nice of you, Hatori-san." Hopefully that was okay since she couldn't call everyone Sohma-san without getting confused. She then gave Momiji a bit of a look since he still seemed to be pulling the strings between everyone. What a pesky puppeteer heh. Mela nodded to All Might, "Sure, we should go, it would be impolite not to." Plus, free food~ She looked over to the others and shook her head slightly at Yukito. She kinda felt bad for Shoto. Kinda. "Come on, guys let's get going!" She said loudly, trying to rally so they could go eat. Mela was pretty hungry. As everyone headed downtown in a large pack, Mela glanced to Hatori, "So you're a doctor huh?" That was kinda sexy though her mind quickly went back to reality as she glanced to her boyfriend. A doctor was sexy, but a pro hero was certainly sexier.

"But you're not a healer I'm guessing? It's pretty impressive to go to school to help others. It sounds hard." She smiled, though healers were tough to come across, she still thought Hatori's profession was something nobel. Doctors were still very much needed. If anything, Mela was partial to them than healers, given how Hideo was with his own quirk.

- - -

This whole day was beginning to spiral downwards. He held back a noticeable frown as Yukito began to say something to him but Shoto just held his tongue, trying to focus on staying calm and not letting his annoyance get the better of him. Yukito was just here for the afternoon, hopefully. He and Ruka could still enjoy some of their little trip. Or not. Maybe. He would have to see how late they could check in but he was hoping their plans were totally tanked by the sudden appearance of not one but four strange men. And the strangest of course was Yukito himself. He felt his chest tighten as he watched silently, not bothering to take Yukito's bait this time. No, he was still feeling a bit rattled by Honda-san's quirk and now this? Shoto just wanted space, there were too many people it suddenly seemed and he felt rather anxious and a little unwell.

Breathe, Shoto. In and out. Breathe. He looked between Shigure and Ruka, not sure what to say. This guy was very forward. Too forward. He was like some overly friendly dog or something. But before Shoto could suggest they just excuse themselves, Yukito popped back up. Couldn't he go bother Mela? Shoto's eye twitched at the second time Shoto used the incorrect surname. Hmph. Well two could play that game right? "I suppose just lunch...would be okay. And sure, come alone, Yumio-san." Though Shoto didn't want to go. Not at all. His whole body was aching and he felt rather unsettled but he wasn't going to be that stick in the mud boyfriend who controlled who his girlfriend hung out with. No no, this would be over soon right? Hiding his slightly sad pout, he put an arm around Ruka as they walked though somehow Shigure wiggled so that he was on the other side of Ruka.

Shoto looked ahead, letting out a small sigh as their large group began to hunt for someplace that would take almost fifteen people for lunch. Shoto glanced to Ruka, wanting to get some alone time with her, maybe pick up where they left off this morning. That was very needed now that his head was beginning to throb. "So you're all leaving this afternoon right?" Shoto spoke up. Not soon enough for him heh.

"Oh of course, of course!" Ayame laughed at the boy ahead of him, waving a hand. Somehow Shoto was left unconvinced.

- - -

"Whaat?" She looked to Shota, surprised at his reaction. His reaction was almost like that of a father being told his daughter should be dating or something hehe. "I'm not planning anything. I just think they have to be lonely waiting for us to come back from work. They deserve some company where we're patrolling or...doing something else." She shrugged and smiled. "They could hang out and take cute lil cat naps together." By no means was she trying to get them together, but she did want Nazo to have some company. She was sure he could get lonely in her place. At least with Mi, he might have someone to play with or cuddle with. "Anyway, just a thought, I could just get another cat friend for Nazo I suppose." She considered but that would mean another mouth to feed and take care of.

When someone came by to take their order and menus, she sat back and looked to Shota. So this was a date huh? Interesting. Ayumi sipped her water, "So maybe after parolling tonight, I should stay over at your place?" It was only fair since they were just at hers. Plus, she did want to see Mi again, it had been a while since she got to see the brown mess of fur. Though it was possible they might find something else to do other than work. But surely as his girlfriend, it wasn't weird to invite yourself over right? "After lunch, what did you want to do? A nap?" She figured he'd prefer to go take a nap somewhere before work. She could figure out his patterns pretty well. Maybe the reason he liked cats so much was because he was like a cat himself? He could be a bit of a loner but he was still easy to cuddle and cozy up to once he warmed up to you. Yes, he was a bit of a cat~

"Or maybe we could do something a bit more exciting before getting some rest?" She grinned.

- - -

He was very glad he didn't have to stick around for that mess. He could almost feel Todoroki fuming from where Denki stood. Even though he looked calm, Kaminari knew well enough when Shoto was in a bad mood. It was a shame too, they all did pretty well in their rematches. This day took an interesting turn but Denki wasn't worried about whatever Ruka or the others were up to. No way, he had a cute girlfriend to focus on. And she could have all of his attention! When she mentioned burgers, he gave a nod. "Burgers it is!" He would go anywhere she wanted, even to the moon if she asked heh. Denki was pretty hungry but he couldn't help but think about something he wanted to. And it seemed Namie had read his mind when she mentioned a reward for him. Oh really? Yes, he wanted that too!

Denki's golden eyes shined as they got on the bus and headed downtown. Sitting down, he pulled her into her lap. "What do I want?" He hummed aloud into her ear. Ah he wanted Namie, her lips, her nose, her legs, every bit of her he wanted hehe. "Maybe later tonight I can get my reward?" He looked to her. Yes, he didn't mind waiting a bit longer. Getting off, they found a small burger joint and headed up to the bar to sit down and figure out what they wanted. "Oh let's split some fries. Sweet potato and curly!" He smiled to her. "And milkshakes too!" He added, thinking back to when they had milkshakes at the arcade a while ago and how she had been so clever with her tongue. She could do so many things with her tongue, he realized. "You may have to show me how to tie a cherry knot." He laughed sheepishly. Ah but would Namie be okay with kissing in public?

He wasn't sure, Denki didn't mind. But maybe Namie might be a little shy? He might have to figure that out.

Shigure was quite tickled to see so many cute girls in one area though most of them had quickly left. Still, Shigure thought the girl with the pink hair was very cute. She would he a fine muse for one of his next novels. Shigure looked to Yukito, who he had heard about from Aya. Hm, no matter. Shigure had dealt with people like him being, always trying to ruin his fun. He looked to Todoroki, not yet under the impression he and the young girl were even together. As they all headed downtown, he saw the red and white haired boy put an arm around Ruka-chan. Maybe they were a thing? How interesting, a solemn boy and a perky girl? What an interesting pair indeed. Shigure moved to walk on Ruka's other side as he began to speak. "What do I do, you ask?" No one asked. "I'm a novelist." He said proudly as Ayame behind him, made a noise of admiration for his friend. Ayame was his number one fan.

"In fact, you would be a fine muse for one of my upcoming romance novels, Ruka-chan." Shigure winked and let out a giggle to Ruka. "Ah yes, your hair and eyes, your bold quirk. You would be a wonderful main character. Men and women would swoon for you." He could already picture it now. He could feel Yuki glaring at him as he walked beside his older brother. Shigure paid no mind to this pesky feeling as they found a sushi place and settled around a large round table and began to place orders for what they'd like to eat. Shigure sat next to Ruka of course, he insisted. While Shoto sat on her other side. "Everyone feel free to order anything." Shigure insisted loudly, waving a hand at everyone. His attention then moved back to Ruka beside him as he tilted his head toward her. "So would you like to star in my novel, dear?"

Shigure was very intrigued by her and he wasn't going to be shy about it either.

AiAi AiAi
 
Should he be concerned? Toshinori silently walked behind Mela and Hatori as his larger build made it a bit hard for three to walk in a row on the sidewalk. Holding back from slouching his shoulders and pouting, All Might turned to see Momiji Shounen walking beside him, looking quite pleased with himself. All Might wasn't sure if he should be worried about that more than anything else at the moment. That smile Momiji Shounen had looked...troubling. He can only smile back when Momiji Shounen smiled over at him before turning his attention to Mela who was walking in front of him. He smiled softly at the way Mela's hair bounced as she walked. Ah, she was just so cute in everything she did. Though somehow he couldn't help but be a bit jealous of Hatori at the moment. Ah, he wanted to walk beside Mela! But no no...he won't be that guy. He just hoped they can get away after lunch...he was in need of Mela's sweet hugs~

As they arrived at the restaurant, All Might took a seat next to Mela while Hatori sat on her other side. He didn't comment on that but seeing Momiji Shounen sitting beside Hatori was worrisome. Looking over the menu, All Might decided on just getting a combo since it seemed to come with a lot of things. Smiling over at Mela, he asked her, "what are you going to get, Mela-chan?" But at the voice of Ayame, he turned to see the silver-haired designer sitting next to him, "wow! So you're the number one hero everyone is talking about huh!" Ayame's golden eyes sparkled as he smiled up at the hero, beginning to ask various questions leaving All Might quite overwhelmed. What was with designers and being so chatty? Though thankfully, All Might has yet to face Yukito's overbearing nature around Ruka and Mela. Though by the way, Yukito's honey hues were glinting, the older Kurotsuki already seemed to be having an inkling of what is going on between Mela and the number one hero.

- - -

Ruka walked beside Shoto as they all began to look for a place to eat. Though it seemed like Yukito was able to find a place for them. Of course, he would know of a place. She didn't really pay much mind to the cousins of the Sohmas, but seeing Yuki looking rather upset with the silver-haired one, Ruka can somehow relate as that reminded her greatly of how her relationship with her own brother, Yukito, was like. Ruka hid a smirk as she realized that she and Yuki may have a bit more in common than she originally thought. Though as the black-haired Sohma came walking beside her, she turned her light blue gaze onto him. He seemed so excitable like a puppy, yet the next second he looked like a completely mature adult. She couldn't quite get her read on him.

As he spoke up mentioning being an author, well that definitely caught Ruka's attention. Her eyes shined slightly with interest and curiosity as she asked him, "you're an author?" Just as she was about to ask him what kind of books he writes, she blinked at his next statement. Eh? Her? A muse for his work? Somehow that didn't...sound right. She didn't see herself as one fitting to be the main character in any story. Just as she was about to tell Shigure that, Yukito butted in from behind, "oh please! Ru-chan doesn't need to star in some novel of your's." Yukito knew what sort of books Shigure wrote, like hell he'd let Ruka star in something like that! On top of that, the pesky Sohma had the nerve to take his spot beside Ruka! He was supposed to be walking next to her! Ruka blinked a bit at Yukito's sudden outburst before turning to Shigure, "ah, sorry about my brother...he's not the brightest around." She ignored Yukito's complaints as she turned her attention to Shoto. Talking to others made her tired, oh but seeing Shoto made her feel energized again. She smiled up at her boyfriend before entering the restaurant that they chose.

Sitting down next to Shoto, Ruka was a bit startled to see Shigure next to her. Though the whole author thing was making her very curious. Plus, the closer she looked, she could say he was good looking. Were all authors like that? Oh but...looking back at Shoto, Ruka smiled as she knew no one can top her Shoto. She held his hand under the table before turning her attention back to Shigure when he asked her once again. Giving him a smile, Ruka told him, "as much as I would be honored to, I don't think I'm anywhere fitting to be the main character of any story Shigure-san...though I would love to read one of your books. Oh, but I haven't heard of a Sohma writer before...do you perhaps use another name instead?" She knew writers would often have alias names instead of their real names. She wouldn't blame them. Meanwhile, Yukito was boiling as his spot next to Ruka was once again taken! He sat next to Shoto with a slight huff as he glanced over at the multi-colored haired boy, "aren't you going to do something? Shigure isn't one to underestimate." He might as well warn the boy now. At least Shoto can do something about Shigure and get him away from Ruka, right? Yukito pouted as he slunk in his seat, deciding to order something rather expensive to get back at Shigure. Grr!

Shota paused in his suspicions regarding Ayumi making plans for his innocent Mi when she explained everything. He blinked a few times...well, if she put it that way then he supposed it was alright. He did feel bad for leaving Mi alone all the time, but due to that, he would often buy her some fish as a way to apologize and to give her a treat. Ah, he was just spoiling her huh? He let out a slight huff before taking a sip of his tea. Giving her a glance, Shota muttered out after a moment, "yeah...you can stay the night...and you can bring Nazo too if you'd like..." In the end, he did as she wanted, but it was just so Mi won't be lonely! No kittens!

To have her over was refreshing. Shota wondered if his memories of Mela can be erased with Ayumi's presence? But then again, was that how things should go? Was it right of him to erase all memories of Mela? Somehow that didn't sit well with him. It didn't seem right. Pushing aside his thoughts, Shota looked over at her, "you don't have to ask to come over, just so you know..." He looked out the window for a moment as he added, "you are my girlfriend after all..." now then, would he regret giving her access to his home anytime she desired? Mmm...hopefully not. Not like she can go and put a curse on his place or something like that. Hah.

Looking back at Ayumi, Shota was a bit surprised at her suggestion. To think she'd suggest a nap. Its as if she read his mind. He blinked a few times, just silently staring at her before a smirk slowly made itself present on his face. Smirking at her, Shota told her while resting his chin on his hand, "how about we go pick up Nazo at your place so Mi won't be bored? While we have some....fun." His eyes twinkled at the mention of fun. Soon their food arrived and Shota just naturally took a scoop of her soup as well.

As they got on the bus, Namie smiled softly when he pulled her onto his lap. Settling comfortably in his lap, Namie leaned back into his chest, holding back a shiver as he spoke into her ear. Glancing over at him, Namie's smile widened as she told him, "mmm, of course, you can~ My place~?" Tomorrow was a Sunday so it would be perfect! They can spend another night together and hang out tomorrow too! Or was she asking for too much, "I was thinking you can stay the night and we can enjoy a nice Sunday together too~...Ah well if you want that is ehe." She gave him a sheepish grin before getting off at their stop.

Taking a seat next to Denki, Namie looked over the menu and knew she wanted the bacon burger and at the mention of sharing fries with some milkshake, she eagerly nodded her head. She didn't participate in the fight, but seeing Denki and the others work so hard made her quite hungry! Or...maybe it was because she used her quirk. Aha. Eyes catching the flavors of milkshakes, Namie's eyes sparkled as she declared, "oh, then I want to try the Neopolitan milkshake! Three in one hehe." She smiled over at him but at the mention of her little trick with the cherry stem, Namie smirked. Oh? Was he suggesting something here? Leaning over, she smiled up at him as she told him, "I would be glad to show you how it's done~ We can do it as many times as you need until you get it down." Her eyes shined as she licked her lips teasingly.

Leaning up, she gave his lips a brief kiss as she told him with a playful wink, "but just a warning, I'm a strict teacher~" her eyes gleamed as she looked up at him. If he wanted her to kiss him in public, Namie would gladly do so. She doesn't mind at all if anything that made her really happy. Happy to know he didn't mind such affectionate acts in public. It also meant he wanted others to know that they were dating, right?

- - -

If his cousins were scheming something, then Hatori must apologize to those involved and hopefully be able to stop his mischevious cousins before they do anything. Hatori's lone green eye looked over at Mela as they walked side by side, heading towards a sushi restaurant. He nodded his head curtly at her question, though at her compliment he gave her a soft smile, "Yes, I am a doctor and you're quite right. My quirk has nothing to do with healing." He paused as he couldn't help but find the girl rather amusing. Smile widening slightly, Hatori told her, "I think its even more impressive to be going to school to become a hero. That isn't an easy thing." Just from watching the matches, Hatori knew things were difficult. He's witnessed Yuki break down into his episodes at times and was close to recommending that he just give up on pursuing to become a hero. Hatori couldn't understand what was so good about becoming a hero if one were to get hurt in the process. But having seen Yuki and everyone else's' resolve during today's matches, he could somewhat understand them now.

As they took a seat in the restaurant, Hatori found himself seated next to Mela. He blinked over at Momiji but didn't say a word. Oh, there was one more troublemaker he had to keep an eye on now, huh. He watched All Might speak to Mela once more and somehow he couldn't help but think there was something more between the two. Something different from a teacher and student. But surely, a pro-hero wouldn't go putting a hand on a high schooler? Though, he supposed he can admit to himself that Mela is cute and he can't really blame All Might for liking her if so. Seeing how All Might was quite caught up in Ayame's mountain of questions, Hatori spoke to Mela, "have you been to this place before? Is there any recommendations you may have?" He gave her a soft smile. Looking back down at the menu, Hatori continued speaking, "I have watched your match against Momiji and I was quite impressed if I must say so myself...though what I wonder the most...is your quirk." He looked back at her, "is it your accuracy?" He couldn't quite pinpoint what her quirk was and perhaps it was all the mystery shrouding this brunette, but Hatori found himself wondering more and more about her.

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela was a bit sad she couldn't talk more to All Might once they settled around the table. She was also sad she couldn't just sit on his lap and feed him too hehe. But maybe she could pick up some cake somewhere and they could go back to his place after this and she could properly dote on her boyfriend without so many curious Sohmas. Before she could reply to All Might, he was snatched up by someone else, the man in the formal robe. Mela glanced over to her other side where Hatori was. "Being a doctor is very admirable." She told him with a nod, knowing it was far more study-based than healing. She hoped if he was in a practice that it was doing well but she did wonder why a family needed its own doctor. Perhaps the Sohmas were prone to getting sick?

"I haven't been here I'm afraid." She replied to Hatori. "But the menu looks so good, it's hard to really go wrong." Mela wasn't too picky of an eater, most of the time. Mela blushed at his question regarding her quirk. She was used to people assuming it had to with her archery or throwing skills. "No actually my quirk has to do with balance but that does play a part in being able to aim." She explained. "So like precarious ledges and stuff, don't really do anything to me so I can get to places others can't." Of course getting down was another matter altogether. "What about you? Do you have a quirk?" "I can erase memories." Hatori replied. Mela almost thought he was joking but his face made it clear he wasn't. "Wow, I don't know if I'd want to erase a memory, even a bad one...but that's really cool and I bet you help a lot people who might be trying to get over trauma. Do people with broken hearts often come to you?" She teased slightly.

Though Shoto was sure Ruka would make a fine hero in some novel, he wasn't sure if he wanted everyone to really read about how cute and sexy she was. And something told Shoto that Shigure's glint meant he may have something planned, that his novels were a bit more trashy than one might hope a middle aged to write. But so far, Shoto had never seen Ruka show much interest in the kind of men Mela enjoyed the company of. He hoped Shigure wasn't some exception to Ruka's typical preferences in men. He held onto Ruka's hand and listened as the man began to babble about things. But Shoto was tuning it out, finding Shigure almost as boring as Kaminari heh. He looked over to the other person beside him who seemed quite unhappy. That made Shoto a bit happier heh.

"They're just talking." Shoto shrugged. Was he supposed to suddenly move between the two of them? He didn't see why he needed to really get too worked up over the ramblings of some stranger he just met. He gave Yukito a slight look not sure if the guy was trying to make him distracted by Shigure so Yukito could steal Ruka away. That was probably Yukito's endgame right? Bring a bunch of people to confuse Shoto so Yukito could get Ruka alone again? But when he noticed Shigure pull Ruka close, his eye did twitch. Okay so the guy was getting pretty close. Too close. He pinched the bridge of his nose. "If this guy is someone I should worry about, why would you even bring him?" He asked Yukito quietly. Yeah, he didn't like Shigure. No, this guy was pretty weird and pretty outgoing, two things Shoto wasn't. The boy glanced over at Shigure, "So what kind of novels do you write anyway?" He asked, trying to distract the guy.

- - -

If Ayumi knew Shota just fet Mi treats and extra fish out of guilt, she would tell him that was a surefire way to make Mi fat and unhealthy. Cats needed activities and other cats to play with. More food wasn't going to make the loneliness go away. When Shota said she didn't have to ask to come over, Ayumi grinned. Oh? So she could show up whenever? She did like the sound of that, of course she'd have to bring a lockpicking kit or something like that right? Though she wouldn't break in, but it didn't hurt to have a way in, just in case. She took another sip of her water. "Well good, maybe you'll be getting visits from Witchya more often then~" She winked at him. Of course Ayumi would make sure her visits were very memorable and very welcomed.

It seemed as though her suggestion hit the mark. Shota was so predictable it was almost cute. "Sounds very good to me." She agreed as she dug into her own bowl as well. Looking up, she scrunched her face up. Aw, did couple just take each other's food? That really wasn't fair, she didn't know that! She reached out and did the same to him. Ha! Ayumi was tempted to go for his ice tea but she didn't. Not yet anyway. "I think I like mine better." She teased him as she went back to her own stew. Ayumi did feel quite happy and she hoped Shota did as well. She knew his feelings with Mela would be complicated. Maybe those two should try having another talk again? She didn't know what was said exactly before but it looked like Mela was moving on and Shota was too. That was good for them both but they probably still needed to not pretend the other wasn't there. Like the past didn't matter. "So Shota-kuuun, you never commented on the cat pic I sent you a while ago. Wouldn't I make a cute cat~?"

- - -

Denki smiled at the idea of going to her place. That sounded very ideal to him. He didn't have to worry about Eijiro popping out of nowhere and ruining the moment. Nor did he have to worry about Peachy trying to intrude on their alone time together. Though he'd have to get Kyoka or Izuku to look after Peachy then. He did feel a bit bad for leaving the cat alone and he was worried the little guy wasn't getting a lot of attention being locked up in his room. he had recalled asking Namie if she'd take Peachy if something happened but he didn't feel right about putting her on the spot. They had just started dating after all. Denki decided upon chocolate, deciding to go with something sweet but with hints of bitterness.

He gave her a bit of a goofy grin at her words. Ah that was good right? He just hoped he didn't swallow and choke on it heh. That would be pretty bad right? He returned Namie's kiss gently, not minding public displays by any means. No way. He wanted everyone to know how great his girlfriend was. He didn't shy away from making sure his lady was well cared for. When their drinks were taken, he moved an arm around Namie and gently rubbed her shoulder. Tis was really nice. This outing felt a lot more different than their usual ones. It felt somehow a bit more electrically charged heh. The blond rested his head on her shoulder as he watched the kitchen in front of them make orders and move about. "So after this we could head back to your place or we could try to catch a movie? Or a movie at your place?" That was doable right? Denki was a bit worn out so something chill where he could cuddle with namie was very ideal.

Shigure found this whole day to be very amusing. So delightful. He enjoyed being around his friends but to have two new high school girls to oogles, ah well he could happily die now. He was also glad he had Aya and Hari around too. Though he could feel a set of eyes staring at him, well two sets of eyes it seemed. But he couldn't help himself. He saw a wonderful bright colored muse and Shigure's mind had to wander to so many delightful scenes. He leaned in closer to Ruka who still didn't see herself the way he saw her. Such a shame. "Ah yes I do operate under another pen name." He nodded to the girl and placed a gentle hand on her head. "I would be honored to share with you my life's work." He said with a giggling smile.

"I'd even autograph for you, free of charge hehe." He said. Ayame had some copies on him so Shigure would make sure to get Ruka a copy of his latest work before they had to part ways. He removed his hand when he felt some people staring ever harder at him. Oh? He looked over to Todoroki. "I write romance novels of course. And Ruka-chan would be the one all the boys would come to flock and adore. Though I'm sure by the way those two are glaring at me, that it's not too far from the truth my sweet, flower. You just exude an alluring mystery so many would looove to solve." Shigure laughed as he moved to capture her chin in his hand, leaning in closer. Oh a romantic mystery would be so fun! He looked into her eyes and hard the boy with red and white hair clearing his throat. "Maybe over dinner, I could do a bit more uncovering?" He smirked.

"She has other plans." Shoto spoke up. "With her boyfriend." Why did it feel like this fact had to be said aloud. Urgh. Maybe he should make Ruka a pin to wear that said she was taken?

AiAi AiAi

Ayame-kun was shooting out questions one after the other. Somehow, All Might felt like the silver-haired male was asking just because. Almost as if to keep him busy, but why? He glanced over at Mela to see her talking with Hatori-kun. Ah...they looked like they were having fun. All Might stopped his thoughts from escalating any further. No, don't be jealous Toshinori! What was wrong with Mela having fun while talking with others? No no. There was nothing wrong with that, that's what! All Might knew he was just being jealous, but he knew there was nothing to worry about either. He was just being silly. Now they just had to wait until lunch was over and then he and Mela can have some well-deserved downtime together...alone. Preferably alone ehe.

Noticing Momiji Shounen's eyes glinting from beside Hatori, All Might wondered if there was something he should be worried about. The way the young blonde looked at him then Mela to Hatori...something was about to happen. All Might just knew it. Placing their orders, everyone resumed their conversations as All Might couldn't help but ask Ayame, "Ayame-kun, you seem quite close with Yukito-kun there. May I ask how you two are acquainted?" Ayame grinned as he told him, "oh well you see, Yukito-kun and I are designer buddies! I'm a designer and I'm sure you know that Yukito-kun is one as well. My cousins and I came over to see our younger cousins and of course my precious brother~!" Ayame winked over at Yuki at that before continuing, "then I remembered Yukito-kun was around and well we just had to meet up! But to think his younger sister was attending the school Yuki and the others went to..." Ayame glanced over to see Yukito still sulking and chuckled. All Might looked curiously over at Yukito but it seemed to have been a bad idea as the brunette turned his sour gaze to All Might.

All Might can only give a nervous smile as Yukito began to bombard him with many questions, thankfully their drinks have arrived. Ah, he nearly forgot how close Yukito seemed with Mela, but that must have been a given since he is Ruka's older brother. But they certainly did not seem related at all. One had brown hair while the other pink...if anything he and Mela looked more related than anything. Maybe he'll have to ask Mela more about Yukito, it was only right to know about those close to her, right?

- - -

Yukito was this close to just strangling Shigure as he tosses the perverted writer out of the store. How dare he touch his Ruka's hair like that! Yukito let out a small scoff when Shoto was being oblivious about Shigure's advances towards Ruka. Could he really trust the boy to protect his Ru-chan like this? But when Shigure pulled her closer, Yukito felt his eye twitch at the same time as Shoto's as the two glared over at Shigure. Hearing Shigure's light-hearted comment, Yukito let out a small huff before turning his attention to Ayame, wondering what has been keeping his friend so quietly occupied? Noticing that All Might was sitting next to Ayame, Yukito couldn't blame the man for wanting to speak to the number one hero. But seeing All Might sitting next to his little cake, Yukito couldn't help but be suspicious. There was definitely something going on there that Mela wasn't telling him. Eyes meeting with All Might's, Yukito smiled sweetly as he briefly patted Shoto's shoulder as he whispered to the younger male, "because I didn't know Shigure was coming along too....well good luck. You better protect Ru-chan!" He then turned his attention to All Might as he began to ask the pro-hero a lot of questions...regarding sweet little Mela. His sweet sister!

Ruka couldn't help but be curious about what his pen name is. Perhaps she has read one of his works, but before she can ask him for a book title or his pen name, she felt a large warm hand rest atop her head in a gentle manner. She blinked slowly as she wasn't used to people petting her head like this. She felt a small blush on her cheeks as she gave off a small pout. Ah, she felt like a child right now. But when he mentioned offering her a book of his with an autograph, Ruka's eyes lit up. As an avid reader, she couldn't say no to an offer like that, "really? I would love a copy of your book." That sounded great! Maybe it can be a new book that she and Shoto can read together? Ruka glanced back at Shoto to see if he would be interested in reading as well.

Oh yes, she was very curious about what kind he wrote too. Oh but a romance novel? Ruka was about to refute Shigure's comment about her being a good romance novel. Her love life would not be anything but fun. She barely had one until she met Shoto...actually she really didn't have one until meeting Shoto and no, Yukito did not count. But her words died in her throat as she felt herself being forced to look into Shigure's eyes as he held her captive by her chin. Eh? W-What was going on!? Mystery? Her? She was anything but mysterious and whoa he was getting a bit too close there! Somehow, the way he held himself and the way he spoke exuded mature to Ruka and she realized that he was older than her...someone totally Mela's type for the age range yet she couldn't tear her gaze away from his. She was getting quite curious of what he wrote with how he kept speaking about it.

She was curious, but when he mentioned dinner, she just looked at him confused. Huh? What does he mean by uncovering? She blinked a few times but then Shoto's voice cut through her mind. She glanced over at Shoto and smiled at him, ah yes. They did have plans tonight, one that she was looking forward to. Hehe. She looked back at Shigure as she told him, "Shigure-san, I've already told you before but my life is nothing worth to write over, I assure you that much...and he's right. I do have plans tonight." Her cheeks flushed happily, a different shade from earlier as she was happy just thinking about what she and Shoto will be doing later today. She wanted to reward her boyfriend for doing so well in his match today. With their drinks arriving, Ruka reached out to take a sip of her strawberry lemonade, letting out a happy sigh. Turning to Shoto, Ruka asked him, "so what did you end up ordering? I got a chirashi. We can share, right?" She wanted to try some of his hehe.

Shota smirked, a visit from Witchya huh? He wasn't sure if he was excited about that or not, but he supposed her in her witchy attire was attractive. Though he preferred Ayumi as just Ayumi. Taking a scoop of his stew, he ignored her comment about her's tasting better than his, well he didn't really care. They were both good in his opinion plus he can't let her ruffle his feathers all the time. Though he did give her a smirk as he took another scoop while saying, "mmm you're right. Your's does taste better, maybe I'll just have some of yours..." he teased her before resuming to eat his own bread bowl of steaming stew. He was kidding of course.

Shota honestly wasn't sure what to think of Mela still. They were no longer a couple, but they were still soulmates. There was a connection between them no matter what. It made him wonder if that was a good thing or bad thing. But he knew he could never truly hate Mela. If Mela was in any danger, he knew he would go and save her. He just didn't know what to call these feelings towards her. It wasn't love...no. He didn't have the right to love her and frankly right now, with Ayumi in front of him like this, Shota knew he didn't love Mela. Not like before at least. Maybe one day he'll talk with Mela again, maybe one day they can share a smile and not feel pain or anything else. Yeah...maybe.

At Ayumi's sudden question, Shota blinked a few times. Eh? Picture...? At the mention of her sending him a picture, Shota recalled her having sent him something like that before. He looked over at her before taking another bite of his stew. He shook his head lightly as he smirked at her, "Hmm I can't remember, you might have to show me what it was like again." Yes, she can just remind him again at his place. That wasn't asking for too much, right?

Leaning into Denki's gentle touch, Namie smiled lightly as she felt his head against her shoulder. Leaning her own head against his, Namie let out a small hum at his words. A movie did sound nice, but she also wanted him to be resting since he did have quite a match today. So when he suggested a movie at her place, Namie smiled as she nodded her head, "a movie at my place sounds good. We can order pizza and whatnot hehe." Yes, a lazy afternoon and night spent with her boyfriend sounded perfect to Namie. Though she did wish they can bring Peachy too, "maybe Peachy can come over one day..." Namie mumbled out in thought. She wouldn't mind taking Peachy into her home at all, she'd love the company!

Soon their drinks arrived and Namie turned to him with a grin on her lips. She let out a small giggle before reaching over to taste her milkshake. She let out an approving sound as the three flavors mixed in well with a good combination of bitter and sweet. Mmm yum. Nudging her head against his affectionately, Namie asked him, "so how does it taste? Yummy?" She smiled up at him before taking a cherry from her milkshake, "so~ Did you want to learn how to knot a cherry stem?" She popped the cherry into her mouth, the small red cluster bursting inside of her mouth as she chewed on the fruity treat. She stuck her tongue out after she finished swallowing the cherry to show the stem lying innocently on her tongue. She grinned at him as she leaned up to his face, her lips hovering over his as she wondered briefly to herself, how was she to help him tie a knot when she knew she'll just get too focused on his tongue? Ehe.

Staring into his golden hues, Namie murmured softly against his lips, her own pair brushing against his as she spoke, "ready for that lesson?" Her teal hues were sparkling with mischief as she stared up at him. Ah, hopefully, their food will take a while longer to cook...she didn't want to get interrupted right now. Ehe.

Oh so balancing was her quirk? How interesting. Hatori found that to be quite a unique quirk and he couldn't help but wonder all the things that she can do. It was a very subtle quirk, but one that people should not overlook. That would be their mistake after all. He listened to her patiently as she explained how her quirk worked. After telling her his own quirk, Hatori watched her for any reactions. He held back a smirk at her expression as he thought over her words. People with broken hearts huh...he nodded his head after a moment as he replied, "yes, many types of people come to me for help...but for certain events, I would refuse to help them...such as broken hearts. Wouldn't you like to keep those memories despite it being painful as a reminder to yourself?" Like a lesson to learn and never repeat?

Hatori found that erasing memories can be useful, but it was also a very painful and lonely thing in his opinion. He would never want to erase any memory whether it be sad or happy moments. Every memory was precious to him. Even if it was painful. He looked over at her with unspoken curiosity as he asked her, "why do you say that you wouldn't want a memory of yours erased? Do you perhaps have one? A broken heart perhaps?" He couldn't help but prod as he wondered why she would refuse. Many people would jump at the opportunity to erase any painful and sad memories. He's had any clients of his ask for his help which is why he now worked at a different clinic without informing them of his quirk. It was better that way.

As their drinks arrived, Hatori took a sip of his hot green tea, enjoying the bitter and warm taste as it ran down his throat. He glanced over at Mela, finding her to be quite an intriguing person. There seemed to be more beneath those smiles of her's. It made him quite curious though he tried to deny it.

Genkai Genkai
 
Not erasing the memory of a loved one was probably a good rule to have even if most people wouldn't agree. Mela smiled slightly, "Ah well I wouldn't say a broken heart." No, her heart was doing a lot better since she finally figured out her feelings for Toshinori. The feelings she had for him were much deeper and impossible to deny. The feelings for Shota were different, she still cared about him and missed him but she knew her heart was no longer in shattered pieces. Blushing slightly at her own thoughts as they circled back around to Toshi, she leaned over and see Yukito and All Might talking. That was good right..? Yeah, she wondered if Yukito saw how wondered All Might was. Though sadly she couldn't blurt out that she and All Might were dating, not when she had to tell Ruka she was dating Toshinori.

Sighing to herself, she smiled to Hatori. "I'm actually dating someone pretty nice right now." She told him. "But I don't think it's right to run away from your bad memories and pretend they don't exist. That would be denying yourself the full story if you broke it apart and erased the sad memories. Life isn't life without some struggle and reflection right?" While she wouldn't mind forgetting someone like Hideo or the heartache breaking up with Shota, it made her appreciate Toshinori and her all the more. But perhaps for people who had been hurt or assaulted then forgetting that may be more useful. Hatori's quirk really could help a lot of those suffering. He had to have seen a lot of horrible things. She sipped her soda, "I know healers and doctors can get so wrapped up in helping others and with a quirk like yours...I do hope you don't push yourself too hard. Don't forget to take care of yourself too." She said sternly before smiling.

Shoto would never read any of the man's trashy romance novels. No way. He'd sooner spend an afternoon babysitting Mineta than giving Shigure his time reading his book or money spent on said book. Shoto made a face as he tried to focus on his tea in front of him but he found it found very annoying to be stuck in such a situation. It felt a lot like when Yukito first appeared in their classroom but somehow a bit more strange. Shigure was more of a stranger to Ruka so why was he getting so cozy all of a sudden? He frowned a little when Ruka said they did have plans but didn't assert that she was in fact not single and not someone to just start hitting on so blatantly. Shoto was kind of worried Shigure didn't even believe Shoto's comment about her having a boyfriend. Who happened to be right beside her.

Did he have to spell it out for Shigure? No, that guy was clearly not as dumb as he acted. He sipped it tea, thinking it may just be better to switch seats with Ruka. She didn't seem uncomfortable being so close to Shigure but she had to be right? Or maybe Shoto was just letting Yukito's paranoia mess with him. If Ruka could sorta handle Yukito, she may be able to handle Shigure right? Shoto didn't have to always come to her aid, he knew Ruka would insist to not be protected all the time. That she could handle herself. But still it did bother him quite a bit to have Shigure flirt in front of Ruka. "Oh yes, we can share. I got some yakitori and mixed tempura." He smiled to her, moving to rest a hand around her beck, pulling her seat a bit closer to his own. Deciding to make his point more firmly, Shoto leaned over and kissed Ruka lightly before he gave Shigure a look. That had to do the trick right?

- - -

Ayumi made a face when he said he'd have more of hers. Uh no, this was her food. Pouting at him, she reached over and took another bite of his food. "I think you're just saying that to mess with me." She figured as she licked her lips once she was done sucking the contents of her spoon clean off. Ayumi sat back and rose a brow as he thought back to what she had sent him when he had been off in Tokyo with his then-girlfriend. She tilted her head at his teasing comment. "No? You don't? I must have sent it to some other guy then." She gave a woeful shrug before smirking at him. "I bet Hizashi-kun loves kitty cats, maybe it was him." She gave him a curious look as she went back to her stew. Of course Shota had to remember, who could forget a cute face like hers?

Ayumi wasn't going to let Shota get away with messing her, nope. She could tease him right back. She figured when they were done she could take Shota back to his place and then go get Nazo since it would be a lot easier to just fly with her cat than juggle a broom and Shoto and her precious Nazo. Then the cats could play while she and Shota also played heh. Er relaxed. "But I'm sure I could figure something out to help remind you." She hummed sweetly as she finished her stew and sighed. That was quite good and she only gave up a few extra bites to Shota. Moving over, she moved her hand over his, her fingertips brushing along the top of his hand. "You know I can think of something else I wouldn't mind having a taste of." She said innocently as they waited for the check. Though Shota coming out to observe the rematches was good progress so maybe he deserved a special treat too? Maaaybe.

Pizza did sound like a good dinner, it was easy and Namie didn't have to cook. While Denki did enjoy her cooking, he didn't want her making a huge fuss and going to trouble just for him. So if they split a pizza, it meant she could spend more time cuddling with him and less time in the kitchen, where he might try to cuddle her anyway heh. He blinked a few times, remembering his family still wanted to meet Namie-chan now that they were really going out. Maybe tomorrow night? He'd have to see if it was doable for Namie. Peachy visiting Namie would be good, Peachy may need time to adjust to the new space but the blond was hopeful Peachy would enjoy the space and freedom of a much bigger home. "I think he'd like to visit very much." He nodded to her, her own kindness warming his heart.

When their milkshakes arrived, he took a sip of his, getting a large whip creamy mustache in the process. He quickly wiped his mouth. He didn't use the straw since he wasn't sure if it would be too thick or not but all he could do was laugh at himself as he wiped his face clean. "Not bad at all." He said, just glad nothing went up his nose. Denki looked at Namie as she took the cherry stem she had and popped it into her mouth. He stared at her, trying to focus on what it was they were doing. Kissing? Yes? No something close to it right? A lesson in kissing er something like it. Oh yes, she was pretty good with her tongue. He pressed his lips to Namie's and couldn't help but smile. Ah she made him so happy~ "Mhm I am." Denki parted his lips against hers, stroking hers with his own. If they couldn't exactly talk then he'd just have to follow her lead huh? Moving his arms around her hips, his eyes closed as his tongue brushed against the stem but his mind was quite a ways away all of a sudden.

- - -

At the mention of Ruka having a boyfriend, Shigure blinked a few times. "Oh that doesn't surprise me." He lamented. "Not one bit." He said adding a bit of extra sadness to his voice as he could feel Kyo and Haru and few other Sohmas giving him a hard look, none of them buying into his shameful display of pity. Shigure was very cunning and manipulative when he wanted to be. "He must be a lucky man." He said, putting a hand to his own chest, not going to be deterred by the news of Ruka being taken. Her having someone meant she had to have experience too right? Maybe she wasn't as innocent as she looked? His eyes shined. Of course if she wanted more...then he'd be happy to show her a few things. Shigure made a face when Shoto leaned over and kissed the young girl.

So they were dating? Well Shigure could still have some fun with his new muse right? He had a quirk that could make things very interesting. "Well the more you insist you're not interesting, the more interesting you become~" Shigure laughed to Ruka as he took a drink of his beer. Since he wasn't driving to the station, he could drink right? He glanced over to Ayame who gave him a thumbs up. Shigure smirked to himself and looked back to Ruka and Shoto. They were cute in a way. But Shigure was pretty sure he could convince her she could have fun with someone a bit older. Someone a bit more carefree and less stingy and stoic. "Oh yes, you'd make a wonderful detective, uncovering many crimes and locking up terrible men. Ah but perhaps you'd fall in love with one, someone with dark hair and an even darker past?" He hummed, imagining himself a bit heh. "You'd be a very dynamic hero, I assure you, my dear. You'll be in my very good hands~"

AiAi AiAi
 
Yukito-kun was quite...scary. Did all people with the surname Kurotsuki just not like him or something? The stare he was giving All Might was eerily similar to how Kurotsuki Shoujo would look at him from time to time...maybe they really are related? But looking between the two, All Might really couldn't see any similarities. He can only nervously smile back at Yukito-kun as the shining-eyed brunette continued with his rapid fire of questions. Fortunately for him, their food arrived which seemed to have quelled the young man's questions for now. Or maybe it was whatever was happening with his sister that stopped the brunette from attacking All Might. Letting out a soft sigh in relief, he turned his attention to Mela as he looked over to see what she got. He ordered a traditional set of some assorted nigiri as he wanted to stick to sushi tradition and get well sushi! Things like these excited him. Ehe.

He smiled widely over at Mela as he scooted his tray of food over to her side slightly as he offered, "you can try a bite of mine if you'd like, Mela-chan." Again, the piercing stare was directed his way when he said Mela's name so casually. Ah...Yukito-kun...was he actually related to Mela-chan? "Say, Mela-chan...is Yukito-kun perhaps actually your brother?" He couldn't help but ask her! It really seemed that way somehow! Shaking his head lightly, All Might looked over at Hatori when he mentioned something about red beans? All Might smiled as he offered kindly, "oh! I think I know where that store is, if you'd like we can...er I can show you the way after lunch?" He gave Mela a sheepish grin, was she okay with that? He instinctively included Mela in it, maybe she wanted to do something else though? He didn't want to stop her if so.

- - -

If someone told her that Shigure was flirting with her, she wouldn't believe it. Perhaps it was due to Yukito constantly acting out on her that she just brushed off all advances from any person. She never really put flirting to mind plus she had Shoto, everyone knew that, right? Ruka wasn't the type to just declare such things out loud as she thought actions spoke more than words. So when Shoto pulled her closer to his side, she just smiled up at him snuggling into his side happily. She let out a small sound in surprise when he kissed her, but she made no complaints. She just blinked up at him, wondering what caused him to do that suddenly? Though when she heard Shigure speak up, she glanced over at the black-haired male.

She blinked a bit, wondering why he was giving her such a sad face though that quickly changed into a cheerful one. She made a slight face when he told her that she was only becoming more interesting. How was that possible? She clearly told him she was anything but interesting. As she listened to him talk more and more, Ruka couldn't help but be curious. Her a detective? No, that wasn't likely, but a hero yes. But the idea of her falling in love with a villain was highly unlikely...plus, "hm, I'm not sure about that Shigure-san, after all, I already am in love with someone and by no means does he have dark hair." She grinned over at Shoto as she spoke, her eyes shining with a loving warmth directed to her boyfriend. But he did make interesting stories, "but your stories do sound interesting." Ruka added as an afterthought as she smiled over at Shigure. It made her more curious about his books. Soon their food arrived and Ruka's eyes were sparkling with hunger as she licked her lips hungrily. Oh, it looked so good! She glanced over at Shigure's wondering what sort of food would an author eat? Hey, she couldn't help herself, after all, this is her first time meeting an author. She's met plenty of designers and celebrities due to Yukito, but not an author.

- - -

At the mention of Hizashi, Shota made a face as he shook his head. No, he wasn't jealous not even for the likes of Hizashi, but instead, another memory surfaced at the mention of the loud-mouth. He frowned slightly as he would feel bad for any cat if Hizashi decided to have one as a pet, "no, all cats hated Hizashi ever since he was in high school. Any animal he tried to get near, they all ran off because of his loud voice..." even he wanted to run off at some point but Hizashi stuck to him like glue...even now. Pushing aside the traumatizing memories, Shota looked over at Ayumi when he felt her hand on top of his. He lifted a brow at her. The two were currently waiting on the check but with her sudden not-so-innocent words, Shota's mind was having a hard time focusing. His hand moved to hold her's as he sent her a smirk, "oh? You'll have to show me what that is...because I can think of something else thats really good." He licked his lips as his mind began to wander.

Getting quite impatient, the moment their check arrived, Shota paid for it before grabbing her hand and tugging her out of the restaurant. He smirked over his shoulder at her as he told her, "let's get going, Witchya." Getting on the broom he was dropped off at his place while she went off to go and get Nazo. It was a good thing she was still floating when she dropped him off, if not he would have probably just taken her into his home right then and there. Now he had to wait...and he hoped she wouldn't be a tease and just keep him waiting. So, before she can fly off, Shota grabbed the back of her head and pulled her down slightly so that he can reach her lips. Kissing her rather fiercely, Shota nipped at her lower lip before pulling back. Smirking at her, he told her, "the door will be unlocked, see you soon babe." Now then...until Ayumi comes over, Shota will need to have a talk with Mi about having boyfriends and whatnot. Urgh.

Namie's eyes shined as she saw Denki looking quite focused on her lips. Oh, how she loved it when those electric orbs of his focuses in on something. It was quite sexy in her opinion. Holding back a grin, Namie actually did try to focus on helping him tie a knot as their lips soon molded together into one. Her own eyes soon fluttered shut as her hands were fisting the front of his shirt as her tongue moved against his tongue, coaxing him to get a hold of the cherry stem. But somehow it seemed like Denki a was more intent on getting her tongue than the stem itself. She let out a small sound as she really wanted to say screw it to the cherry stem, but then one of them may end up swallowing it...

Somehow, she was able to help Denki tie a knot with their two tongues dancing around. How? She had no clue, but it was enjoyable nonetheless so she really wasn't complaining. Breaking apart for some much-needed air, Namie panted softly as she stared up at him. Her mouth was empty..which mean he had it. She grinned over at him as she stuck her tongue out, showing her's to be empty. "So? Did it work?" She asked him and let out a small giggle as she saw the knotted stem. Her eyes shined as she told him, "good work there~ But I think you'll need more practice?" She was reaching out for his cherry when a cough was heard. Namie blinked over to see the waiter having their food with a blush on his cheeks. Oh...oops. Namie gave the boy a cheerful smile and took the food as she thanked him. Eyes glinting with joy, Namie smiled teasingly over at Denki as she rested her hand on his thigh, "guess we'll continue this later~" Hopefully they can be patient, heh.

- - -

Hatori listened to Mela as she explained. Hm, so she was dating someone? Ah, wait why did he focus on that first. Pushing aside his odd thought, Hatori smiled slightly at her words. Ah...so there were people like her still around...that was a reassuring thought. But he couldn't help but be surprised when she suddenly changed her tone as she looked sternly over at him. He blinked a few more times before a soft smile bloomed on his lips. He chuckled slightly as he told her, "thank you for your concern, I'll be sure to eat plenty today." Plus Shigure was paying, might as well take that to his advantage. Heh. As their food arrived, Hatori cast a smile over to Mela as he teasingly told her, "make sure you eat a lot now." As if throwing her words right back at her.

As they began to eat, Hatori couldn't help but notice the closeness All Might and Mela seemed to exude, perhaps to others, it wasn't as noticeable, but for someone observant like Hatori, it was clear as day. Hm, there was something else going on for sure. And judging from how a few other pairs of eyes were glaring over at All Might, Hatori can conclude that yes, those two were probably dating. Remembering something he was supposed to do before leaving Musutafu, Hatori spoke up to Mela curiously, "do you happen to know where this one traditional sweet confectionary store may be? I heard Musutafu is known for their red beans and I was hoping to buy some before leaving today." At the offer from All Might, Hatori nodded his head as he gave a small smile back at the pro-hero, "that would be much appreciated, though you say we...?" He couldn't help it, he wanted to hear it from their lips.

Genkai Genkai
 
Though Hatori was someone she would have been interested in ordinarily, she did have someone else to call hers now. And she didn't want Hatori to get any wrong ideas or feel like he might have a shot with her. No no, Toshinori had stolen her heart entirely. But she did find Hatori to be pretty easy on the eyes and a good conversationalist. It was a shame she hadn't met him during her time while training with Momiji, she had several questions regarding his quirk and how it could erase memories. In a way, Hatori looked a bit like Shota and had a quirk that could erase too. It was almost funny in a way. So Mela was hoping to get to know him a bit better while she still had the chance. She had ordered some miso soup and tamago don. It would be quite warming and comforting, no doubt.

"Oh no no, Yukito-kun isn't my brother. I don't have any siblings but Ruka and her brother are pretty close to it I'd say." She told All Might. She nibbled on her donburi and some of All Might's offerings as the idea of going somewhere else was floated around. Mela looked between them. "Oh, we should all go then!" Mela said. That sounded like a good plan to her. After eating, Shigure got up and went off somewhere and came back and began to make some kind of a speech. Mela found Shigure to be pretty cute but a bit dopey, still she noticed the way Ruka was chatting with him and wanted to see if Ruka had a possible crush on the older guy. Mela would be so tickled if that was the case. Mela never knew Ruka to like someone older so Mela was very curious and a bit hopeful for her friend.

Mela got up when Shigure had finished but noticed Ruka had vanished. Huh? Maybe she was in the bathroom? Mela shrugged and looked to her two gentlemanly escorts. "Shall we get going then~?" She smiled to them. The three headed out and followed All Might who seemed to know where to go to enjoy some dessert. "Your family is very impressive, Hatori-san, to have a large family full of unique quirks..." She was sure a few would be able to make names for themselves. Of course she didn't think any of them would really be able to dethrone her number one hero, not even Yuki-san. Nope. "You know the first time I met All Might, he saved me. It was very heroic. Then it turned out he was teaching at UA." Mela couldn't help but smile, that felt so long ago. It had been a bit embarrassing. But it still made her weak-kneed thinking about it. "But I'm sure you save lots of people too, Hatori-san." Mela added, blushing a little.

It was a little strange to be sitting next to his love and feel somewhat lonely and left out. Considering her reaction to the kiss, Shoto shoulders slouched a bit. A sound of surprise wasn't exactly what he had been going for but maybe it was ill timed. If Ruka did want to focus on her new friend, Shoto wouldn't complain. No, she could make new friends. But did they have to be old perverts who couldn't take a hint? He glanced over to Yukito, figuring if Ruka was talking to Shigure which wasn't too bad save for the grating flirting, Shoto could either busy himself on his phone or talk to the designer beside him. Out of those two options one was more appealing but he decided to go the diplomatic route and pick the second, less appealing option. He rubbed his neck and looked to Yukito. "So...how's working going?"

Small talk was not his thing. Yeah Shoto didn't really care, since he was sure Yukito would just call him a name and ignore him. But still, maybe Yukito's worries about Shigure weren't unfounded? After they finished eating, Shoto was going to grab Ruka and head off so they could go back and get ready and try to have some alone time at the retreat but when he turned around to look at her, there was no one there! He glanced back to Shigure was droning on about friendship and bonds and other crap. He looked to Yukito, wondering if he had anything to do with Ruka's sudden disappearance. Was she okay? He wondered if she was feeling unwell. He got up and looked back to Yukito, a headache now fully taking over as he decided he'd need his help if he was going to see where Ruka had fled to.

With any luck, she was just trying to get away from the creepy Sohma family, to which Shoto wouldn't blame her. He pulled out his phone: [Where are you? Are you okay?] He texted to her. Shoto tapped Yukito on the shoulder. "Did you see Ruka go anywhere?" He asked him. He wasn't sure if Yukito had or not but if anyone was a magnet for the girl, it was Yukito. Or Mela. But Mela seemed busy and he didn't want her yelling at him for losing Ruka. Plus he knew Yukito was worried about Shigure and maybe that guy had something to do with this? Though he was right in front of them so Shoto couldn't fathom the idea Shigure would be capable of kidnapping Ruka while talking to everyone. It didn't add up but Shoto did have a bad feeling building inside of him. "I'm worried someone may have taken her." He said, trying not to sound too dramatic. But his only suspect was right in front of them. Maybe he was going crazy? But why would she wander off without saying anything? It was very odd.

Holding his hand, Ayumi smirked at Shota. So he wanted something else too? Perhaps she could indulge him. She gave him a look when he paid but didn't say anything. Well she did make them breakfast so it was his turn right? Ayumi followed after Shota though he was pulling her along so it wasn't like she could fly away and tease him. Quickly flying to his place, Ayumi dropped him off and was about to fly off when she found herself pulled down for a passionate kiss. So he was impatient too? She held back a gnawing moan and looked to him. "Alright, babe." She nodded as she flew back and gave him a smile before she flew off to her place. Once there, she slipped off her hat and set her broom by her kitchen and went to go see where Nazo was nesting.

Finding him in her office chair, she picked him up and gave him a few cuddles before she walked back to the kitchen and grabbed a newly purchased bottle of sake. She headed out, holding Nazo in one arm with her drink in her other hand. Flying almog she made quick time back to Shota's place and let herself inside. Dropping Nazo down to explore his new second home, Ayumi closed the door and locked it behind her. No one was was invited right? Setting the bottle of sake on the kitchen table, she wandered to where Shota was in the living room with his own cat. "Hey there Mi-chan." Ayumi greeted happily. "Nazo is a total gentleman, I'm sure they'll be fine together." She told Shota, petting her boyfriend on the head as she moved to sit down beside him while Nazo walked around, sniffling and seeing that there was in face, another cat in the area.

"Anyway, now that they have something to do, maybe we should do something too?" Ayumi asked him as she leaned over and kissed Shota softly, rather tempted to settle onto his lap. But no, they should go somewhere a bit private. She floated off the couch and moved around behind Shota, moving her arms around his neck as she nuzzled her face in his hair. "I also brought over something to drink." She mentioned as she floated over and grabbed the bottle and flew off to his bedroom, deciding it would be a lot easier to relax in bed together. Settling on the bed, she opened the bottle of sake and took a few sips before she beckoned Shota to join her. Nothing could be more relaxing than enjoying a drink and your lover before work? Of course work was the last thing Ayumi was even thinking about. "Sho-taaa~" She sang softly. Or would he prefer she call him Eraserhead? She was tempted to grab the cat ears, she knew where they were but for now, she would refrain.

When Namie's tongue found his own, the thought of lessons went out the window as a few sparks shot front the tip of his tongue Namie's own tongue. He liked kissing her. A lot. Yes he did. Letting out a small moan, Denki tried to follow what she was doing but it wasn't easy when his mind was slowly turning into mush. His tongue brushed along hers and fumbled a bit with the stem until their lessons were disrupted by someone. He looked over to see their food had arrived. Already? Before he could talk, he removed the stem from his mouth. It was in a loose knot but yes, maybe he could practice later? Maybe sooner than later though? Denki smiled to her and set it down between them. "Ah I look forward to more lessons, Namie-sensei." He teased her.

Heh she would be one teacher he wouldn't ignore during class. With their food in front of them, his stomach gave a happy growl as he began to pick at his fries. "Hah good, I wanna be Namie's number one student." He teased once more as he took another drink of his shake though he could still taste Namie and now faint hints of cherry on his tongue. Yum. He finished his cheeseburger fairly quickly, either because he was hungry or because his mind was focused on something else. When they finished, they paid and grabbed the bus back toward Namie's house. He held her hand the whole way, unable to stop from kissing her cheek and neck softly. If he was going to practice, he may as well warm up a little first right? By the time they got to her place, Denki was already in the mood for more lessons. While he waited for her to unlock the door, he rested his arms around her, his chin on her head. Denki held her close as he rubbed her sides. "So a movie huh?" But he didn't think he'd be paying it any mind.

So whatever they picked, would be quite fine with the frisky blond. He would be quite distracted. Inside, Denki took off his shoes and looked around before they moved over to the living room to find out what to watch. Denki suggested a hero movie which Namie seemed okay with. Sitting on the couch, he pulled Namie into his lap and kissed along her neck, enjoying the floral taste of her skin. it was so calming and so inviting. "So maybe I could have dessert?" He muttered into her ear as his tongue flicked out to trace the edge of her lobe. His mind went back to this morning and how they should pick up where they left off. Or where they left off this afternoon? "Does Namie-sensei think I deserve a treat?" He asked sweetly as his hands moved along her skirt, pulling it up slightly. "Or more lessons first?" He hummed, a bit of electricity tickling her ear.

Shigure didn't mean to steal the young girl's attention away from everyone else's, plus her so-called boyfriend...well perhaps he did. But he was a playful man and he was amazed a young girl would have much interest in him. Usually when he chased skirts, he was given a hard slap or some kind of restraining order. Or his editor would yell at him for having warped priorities. But having met such a nice girl like Kurotsuki Ruka, well Shigure wasn't going to let this chance slip through his nimble fingers. Oh no. He was going to show her just how well one could be treated by an older guy. Plus he truly did find her inspiring and even if nothing came of his little plan, he would still love to write something inspired by her. Though it was a shame she didn't see just how brightly she sparkled.

A hero ought to know just how they inspire others right? "Oh the color of the hair isn't really important." He waved a hand at Ruka's unconvincing words. "You can fall in love with anyone regardless of hair color." He laughed. Ah she had missed his point entirely. Ouch. But he wouldn't give up! Shigure turned his attention back to his own food, many types of sashimi. He ate and chatted with Tohru who was beside him. When everyone had their fill, he got up dramatically and said he'd go cover the bill. He walked off and used his quirk to create a second copy of himself. His clone settled the bill and signed for everything and then went back and stood in front of the table, ensuring everyone was watching him. "I should say a speech now right?" He could tell Yuki and Kyo were glaring but he paid no mind to them. "While my time here has been short-lived I have had the pleasure--"

Meanwhile the real Shigure snuck around the table and grabbed Ruka before anyone could notice as their focus was on his clone, still babbling about something. The real Shigure pulled Ruka out the door and down the street, hooking their arms together. "Oh my dear Ruka, I've been dying to get you alone. How do you like my quirk hmm? I can create a clone. Only one but it's very durable and it comes in very handy." He giggled, poking her on the nose playfully as he led her toward a bookstore he had spotted earlier. "I thought what better way to repay my fearless detective than by showing you all of my books and perhaps getting some more inspiration. You mention being in love right? My novels are very good at making women feel very loved." His eyes sparkled. "I bet you'd be interested in some of their contents? Maybe I can read for you?" Did he like hearing himself talk? Could anyone blame the flirt? "Or demonstrate?" He whispered into her ear with a devious giggle as they arrived at the store.

AiAi AiAi
 
Ah, so Yukito-kun was, in fact, Ruka's brother...but somehow their relationship did not seem like a normal siblings one that was for sure. All Might ignored the stares Yukito-kun was sending his way and was quite glad for Todoroki Shounen distracting the male Kurotsuki. All Might smiled as he nodded his head, "yes, we can all go after we eat." Ah, he really wanted to just take Mela off and enjoy some time together, just the two of them. But his side of wanting to help others just had to make itself known. Seeing Hatori looking relieved made him glad. He wanted everyone who visited Musutafu to leave with a happy memory. The large group of people enjoyed their lunch together and when it was time for them to go, Shigure-kun began a long-winded speech. All Might didn't think anything of it and so when he did finish the speech, he smiled over at Mela, "yes, let's get going." Gesturing the Hatori to follow along, All Might began to lead the way.

Leading the way, All Might blushed slightly at Mela's praising words. He remembered that time. It was the first time he met Mela and yet he didn't even escort her home safely! What a hero he is. Even now he would scold himself about it, but no. Now that he had Mela, he would make sure her safety comes first and foremost. But hearing her praise him made him blush in happiness. Though seeing Mela blush while looking at Hatori made All Might a bit sad on the inside. He only wanted her to blush at him, but no. He can't be selfish. Mela was simply making a new friend and he wasn't about to stop her from doing that. Plus she seemed quite happy, what more can he ask for than that? Spotting the store up ahead, All Might pointed at it while explaining, "ah there it is! That store is well known for their red bean confectionaries." The store read Musutafu WagoshiYa. It had a very traditional feel to it compared to the more modern stores around it.

- - -

Yukito wasn't in a happy mood. First that pervert Shigure took an interest in Ruka of all people and then there seemed to be something going on between All Might and his little Mela. He was silently sulking as he ate his meal when he heard Shoto's voice. Yukito turned his bright brown hues to face the younger male in slight surprise. Oh? This was unusual. The boy was usually either too busy with Ruka or trying to get him away from Ruka. So what was this? Looking past Shoto, Yukito noticed Ruka was in a conversation with Shigure. He let out a slight sound but smiled at Shoto, "busy working for the Sports Festival for your school, but otherwise its alright I suppose...now the real question is, what are you going to do about that?" Yukito wasn't about to drop that. He needed to do something about Shigure or Yukito will do so himself.

When everyone finished eating, Yukito felt quite relieved to know this would be the end of Shigure being near Ruka...but no. Of course not. He watched with slight annoyance as Shigure began to make a loud speech, he was too busy glaring at Shigure to notice anything about Ruka until Shoto came over. Feeling the tap on his shoulder, Yukito turned his attention away from Ayame to Shoto. Yukito lifted a brow, wondering what it was now as it was quite strange for the boy to come to him so willingly. But when Shoto mentioned Ruka, he felt his heart begin to hammer with worry as his eyes swept around the room to find that Ruka was indeed nowhere in sight. The panic was obvious on his face as he looked around the room and then when he tried calling Ruka's phone, a rather loud alarm blared from the table. He looked to see it was her phone...he'll ignore the ringtone for now as he turned to Ayame, "where is she?" He asked as if the silver-haired male knew. But no...Ayame wasn't the one he should be asking...Yukito turned a blazing gaze to Shigure. It had to be his doing. But before Yukito can even step forward to strangle erm question Shigure about Ruka's whereabouts, a sudden blur of orange and black appeared as Kyo kicked Shigure across the room and into the wall. Though Shigure didn't go breaking the wall, no no instead there was a loud poof as he disappeared in smoke. Kyo let out a scoff, "I knew that pervert used his cloning quirk again." Yukito blinked slowly before turning to face Shoto, "you and me. We're leaving now. Ayame-kun, you're coming too." If they wanted to find Ruka, then they'll have to team up whether they liked it or not.

- - -

After their meal, Ruka was ready to head back and pack for their trip, but as Shigure came back from paying the bills he began to speak about something. Ruka thought it would be rude if they left right away and stayed seated in her seat, but at a sudden tug on her hand, she soon found herself outside the restaurant in the blink of an eye. Eh? What just happened? Feeling her arm locked with someone else's, she turned to see it was Shigure, eh? But? Looking back she tried to look at the restaurant but they were getting further away from it. Tugging at his hand, Ruka spoke up, "S-Shigure-san? But you were just--?" As he explained about his quirk, Ruka was rather amazed by it before realizing that they were heading somewhere. The poke on the nose did the trick in snapping her out of her daze.

Wait wait wait! Repay her for what though? Her brows furrowed in confusion as she opened her mouth, about to tell him to let her go before she has to use force. Shoto must be worried sick about her! And then there was Mela and Yukito there too! That wasn't a good thing at all. But when Shigure mentioned his books, Ruka's interest was piqued once again. Ah....she was quite curious. When he mentioned love, Ruka couldn't help but tilt her head to the side. Hm? Was he implying that his books gave good love advice...? Or that maybe it'll help her with her relationship with Shoto...? But they had no problems unless it was meant to spice things up more? Oh, now she was curious. Oh! Maybe she can call Shoto and let him know where she was? But as they arrived at the store, Ruka felt a shiver run down her spine as she jumped away from Shigure, placing a hand against her ear as it tickled when he whispered, a small blush dusting her cheeks. Eh? "Demonstrate...?" Ruka repeated in confusion. "Um Shigure-san, where are the others? Shouldn't we let them know where we are?" She was looking for her phone, but she couldn't find it. Oh, where did she place it?! Shoto! Where are you!?

While Ayumi went to get Nazo, Shota picked Mi up and cradled the soft brown cat in his arms as he sat down on the couch. He stared into Mi's bright green hues as he told her with a slight frown, "there's going to be a troublesome cat coming...don't let him walk all over you. Remember who you are." He smirked slightly as Mi gave a soft meow in return. Petting Mi softly, he settled her on his lap as he waited for Ayumi to return. When she did, he watched as the black feline moved about his place while Mi watched with curious green orbs. He let Mi wander off to go and meet Nazo as he turned his attention to his girlfriend. He smiled slightly in greeting as he wrapped an arm around her. He let out a slight hum at her question as he returned the kiss. Ah yes...now that Mi wasn't going to go off alone and sleep, he can shower Ayumi with his attention.

At the mention of bringing drinks, Shota lifted a brow. Ah, he wasn't used to this since he didn't drink much when Mela was around. Watching Ayumi float off into his room, Shota smirked slightly as he stood up and followed her inside. Sitting down on the bed, he took the bottle from her and took a few swigs of it before placing it on his bedside table. He then pulled Ayumi over to sit on his lap as he nuzzled his face into the crook of her neck, inhaling her comforting sweet scent. Really, at this rate, he might end up liking old books or something because of her. His lips trailed along her neck as he murmured out, "yes?" She called him, right?

- - -

Namie blinked a bit at the mention of sensei. Oh? A grin soon appeared on her lips as her eyes shined with slight mischief, oh yes. She can definitely be his sensei if he so wished. Hehe. She let out a slight hum as she wondered aloud teasingly, "ah~ My student is being so good. I guess a reward is needed if you keep being my number one student, huh?" She smiled over at him before turning her attention to her burger. She licked her lips hungrily as she took a big bite of it, letting out an approving sound in the back of her throat. Oh, that was yummy. The burger and the fries combined with the milkshake was just a splendid meal. Namie ate that rather quickly surprising even herself, but Denki was finished way before her. Oh? Was someone impatient? She giggled slightly as she finished up her shake, letting out a soft sigh in happiness. Good food and company, what more can she ask for?

The way to her house was quite a long wait in her opinion as Denki continued to shower her with soft kisses, teasing her all the way to her place. As she struggled to open the front door with Denki hugging her so closely, Namie had a hard time focusing on anything else but Denki. Namie nodded her head absentmindedly, "mmhm, a movie..." she wasn't really thinking about that herself. Her mind was already floating away thanks to Denki's teasings. As she finally opened the door, they moved inside and after picking out a movie, the two were seated comfortably on the couch in the living room. As Denki began to tease her, Namie's focus was fully on Denki and not the movie as she let out a soft sound as he kissed her skin, "mmm...yes...dessert..ah right." Should she give him another lesson? Or straight to dessert? Decisions, decisions~

- - -

He didn't get a clear confirmation from the two, but Hatori can already guess what was going on between the two. It was rather interesting, to say the least, but the doctor won't mention it since the two seemed to stay quiet about it as well. He smiled over at them gratefully and began to eat his meal, conversing with Momiji from time to time to make sure the young blonde wasn't up to any trouble. Once they were all finished eating, Hatori watched with slightly narrowed green hues as Shigure began to speak up. What was he planning? He glanced over at Ayame to see if the other knew, but it seemed not. Hatori can only sigh as he assumed Shigure was just being excited due to being in another city. So when Mela mentioned heading off to the store, Hatori nodded his head, not knowing what Shigure was really up to.

As they walked along the streets, Hatori smiled slightly at the mention of his family. He was quite proud of his family members each showing growth in their quirks and was glad that others have noticed it as well. At the mention of All Might, Hatori looked over to see the tall blonde looking quite bashful much to his amusement. He looked back at Mela and gave her a soft smile, "ah, thank you...but I am sure a hero's work is much more taxing." Hatori noted as he saw All Might get even shyer. What a peculiar fellow he was. He smiled back at Mela as he added, "and I'm sure you will make a fine hero as well, Uede-san." At the mention of the store, Hatori looked up and smiled slightly. Ah yes...this is what he came here for...aside from picking up his younger cousins and Honda. Entering the store, he looked around to note there were many sweet treats lined up on trays, there were even benches outside for anyone who wishes to snack on a few. Looking around, Hatori told the two, "ah, please feel free to get anything you like. Think of it as thanks for showing me to the store."

Genkai Genkai
 
Mela knew she probably told people a bit too much about All Might when there was silence that needed to be filled. She couldn't help herself though, it was a topic she loved discussing. Not to mention, she was always so proud of her Toshi, she wanted everyone else to know how great of a hero he really was. Though she knew heroes weren't just pro heroes, they were also doctors and support students and even scientists too. She smiled at Hatori's words. "Aw thank you, Hatori-san." She wasn't sure yet but hopefully she would have a chance to become a real hero someday. Upon arriving at the store, Mela noted it was very traditional which wasn't too much of a surprise. "Really? Thank you!" Mela looked to Hatori when he offered to treat them.

Not needing to be told twice, she headed off to closely inspect what she'd like to buy, trying to remind herself not to get too carried away. Mela glanced around and read a bit about the confections. Looking over to All Might, she was quite tempted to grab his hand. Even though there wasn't anyone else in with them, there was still the shop owner and Mela still wasn't sure what Toshi wanted to do regarding the issue of All Might having a girlfriend. That news would travel pretty fast. So for now she could just longingly stare at All Might. "So after this, did you want to go to my house for a bit?" She asked him quietly. She wanted to do something more outdoorsy but she was worried the daylight would fade all too soon. "We could order some dinner and just hang out?" She suggested, not sure if he would prefer his place. Mela just wanted some alone time, either way.

- - -

Maybe he should ask Honda-san to check the bathroom? Ruka wouldn't just leave without her cell phone. That wasn't like her. Or well, anyone for that matter. So if she wasn't still around then where was she? Someone had to have taken her right? But Ruka would surely be able to fight off some assailant who tried to take her right? So then maybe she went willingly? But without telling him? Shoto was very confused. And growing all the more worried. When the redhead smacked Shigure upside the head rather hard, Shigure vanished into a puff of smoke. Huh? Shoto suddenly realized Shigure's quirk had to be duplication or something. So then it had to be Shigure who just dragged Ruka off! Argh, who would do something so creepy and sinister? And to a high schooler no less?!

"Aw sounds like a good time, the three of us together ahaha~" Ayame was obviously the most cheerful one in the group and Ayame, Shoto and Yukito headed outside to see where they could have gone. Shoto glanced around and let out a long sigh. Shigure was author so maybe he took Ruka to a bookstore? Ruka would probably like that and would be easily swayed to stay right? "Where would Shigure take Ruka? To a bookstore?" He asked Aya, trying to not glare. This wasn't his fault. No, this was Shigure's. And partly Yukito's too for even bringing them to UA to begin with. Blah. "It's quite possible." Ayame laughed. "Shigure does enjoy meeting fans and Kurotsuki-chan has clearly left an impression on my dear 'Gure~" Aya noted dreamily. "I think there's two bookstores nearby." Shoto said. "Let's check the one two blocks over."

- - -

His little plan had worked out so well. Astonishingly well. But he also knew Ruka might just walk off to find the others, which she was allowed to do of course. He wasn't going to actually kidnap someone. But he did want some alone time with her as he knew his own time in this city was almost up and he'd have to go back and deal with the irritated likes of Yuki and Kyo. But at least his wonderful Ayame supported SHigure. That's what mattered most. Er and his publicist too he supposed. He looked to Ruka when she created some distance. Why was she suddenly so shy? He blinked a few times at her question. "The others?" Was she really worried about them or was she just pretending? Shigure wasn't so sure so he couldn't help but smirk at her.

"Ah well I'm sure they'll find us eventually!" He waved a hand. Hopefully Ayame could hold them off though. "Of course you can go back to the restaurant if you'd like." He said to her. "But I just thought an intelligent woman such as yourself would enjoy some one on one time with me. You seemed so interested in my novels." Shigure smiled as he pulled open the door for her to make her choice. Shigure looked around wondering if the others had figured out his clone yet. He hoped not. The fun would be over far too quickly. His mind was still churning out ideas. He knew Ruka didn't consent to being an inspiration to his next bestseller but he could take some inspiration right? But not to enough where he'd have to pay her royalties. No no no. Ehehe. "Just indulge me for a little while, please my sweet Ruka-chan?" He smiled innocently, batting his eyes.

AiAi AiAi
 
All Might smiled over at Hatori, oh that was very kind of him, but shouldn't he be paying so that Hatori can have another good memory of Musutafu? Yes, perhaps he can somehow persuade Hatori to let him pay. Thankfully there weren't many people in this store other than the store owner. He wasn't sure if he wanted his fans around at the moment. Sure, he adored his fans but he wanted to spend time with Mela and also for Hatori to have a good time as well. He began to look around at the various sweets selection while Hatori went off to chat with the owner to see what was good. He watched Mela look around the various desserts with a rather gleeful expression on her face. It was an adorable sight and it was more than enough to bring a smile to All Might's lips.

He snapped out of his thoughts when Mela spoke up. A small blush dusted his cheeks at her offer, but the way his eyes shined and how he smiled over at her told her everything she would need to know. All Might nodded his head as he picked up a simple red bean daifuku as he answered her, "of course, I would love that very much." Oh but....what if Kurotsuki Shoujo drops by or something like that? He wasn't sure if he was ready to face Ruka's wrath or Yukito's for that matter. But All Might knew they would need to talk about these things soon. He didn't like keeping things in the dark and honestly, he was really bad at it. His happiness by just being around Mela was quite a noticeable thing already. Showing his pick for the treat, All Might added sweetly, "go ahead and get more if you want Mela-chan. I wish to buy these and also Hatori-kun's. I want him to have a good memory of Musutafu and us." All Might went over to see if he can buy anything for Ruka as well since he did want to be there when Mela told Ruka. Or was that too much? Would it be better if he let Mela handle that alone? Oh, but he wanted to be there with Mela through it all. How conflicting.

- - -

After getting some input on which would be the best choices by speaking with the store owner, Hatori began to walk around the store slowly as he let his green gaze travel over each and every item they had to offer. Despite not appearing to like sweet food too much, Hatori did have an appreciation for red bean related sweets. His serious nature even exuded in things such as this, though if one looked closely enough, they would be able to see the little sparkle of joy in his lone eye. He looked over to see All Might literally smiling like a ray of sunshine for a brief moment as he was speaking with Mela. Hatori had to look the other way with how bright the smile was. All Might truly did look happy with Mela like that. Hatori smiled a bit, knowing that was something no one can get in the way of. Though a part of him was jealous that only All Might received such a loving gaze from Mela. Any guy would be lucky to receive such attention from a cute girl he supposed.

As All Might wandered off to look at a few other items, Hatori walked over to Mela to see if she found anything to her liking, "found anything good?" Hatori asked her as he showed her his own findings which were an assortment of items all of which he placed in a small basket. He gave her one of his rare smiles as he continued to speak, "I'm not one to pry much, but I can't help but notice how happy you two seem...and he truly seems quite happy to just be around you. You're a lucky girl hm?" He smiled over at her teasingly as it became all too clear to Hatori that to All Might, Mela was an important person. To be the number one hero's important person is quite a feat huh? "Though I am quite envious of All Might to receive such a pretty lady's attention like so." Hatori mused aloud, finding no problem in giving a little teasing. He wouldn't dare get in their way though and he honestly didn't plan on it. His heart was elsewhere, to begin with.

- - -

If only his quirk was magnetism or something like that! That way he can never lose Ruka even if she were to be stranded on an island! Yukito let out a long sigh as he mumbled out, "the tracker won't work when her phone is right here!" All that effort to install a tracker into Ruka's phone was all for nothing if it didn't help him find the girl when he needed to the most! Yukito will ignore that he just flat out admitted to Shoto that he has a tracker on Ruka's phone. Ehem. He turned an annoyed look over at Ayame to see if his friend would help them or not. As much as Ayame is a fan of Shigure's, Yukito was hoping the silver-haired male was more of a fan of him. Maybe he can bribe Ayame by giving out some designs that Yuki can wear? Ah yes, Ayame would like that, wouldn't he? If the two shared a few things in common aside from being designers, it was the fact that they both adored their younger siblings, oh but for Yukito's case it was a bit different. But similar enough!

At the suggestion of a bookstore, Yukito nodded his head in agreement. That made a lot of sense, "yeah! Ru-chan would fall for that trick! She's too innocent." Yukito frowned as he lamented loudly, "my Ru-chan never believes it when someone is flirting with her! She probably thinks Shigure is just trying to be nice!" Argh, why must that girl be like so?! He didn't put to mind that it was probably his fault for her strange mindset. Grabbing Shoto and Ayame's arm, Yukito began to lead them to the nearest bookstore as he loudly declared, "come! We must hurry or who knows what that fiend would do!"

- - -

With Shigure speaking way too close to her ear, Ruka forgot about her missing phone for a brief moment as she nodded her head. Yes, the others! Like Shoto, Mela, heck even Yukito! But when he dismissed the fact so easily, Ruka couldn't help but stare at him silently. Eh? That was it? How can he be so carefree? Back to the restaurant...Ruka looked around and frowned as she didn't really recognize the streets around here. Sure, she's been in Musutafu for a couple months now, but she still wasn't completely familiar with the streets. Fishing for her phone, Ruka then remembered she didn't have that either. Yeah, she'll get lost for sure if she even tried to backtrack. She wasn't paying attention when Shigure was dragging her around. But as Shigure opened the door for her and gave her such a pleading look, well she really didn't have it in her to say no. "Well..I suppose just for a little while, but can you please message someone to tell Shoto that I forgot my phone at the restaurant?"

Though as she walked into the bookstore, Ruka realized Shigure was a lot like Yukito in some ways. For one the way he used such flowery words to her was similar, but the way he held himself was different from other older men that she's met. Ruka honestly wasn't sure what to think of Shigure, but she knew her gnawing curiosity for his books were quite the driving factor at the moment. Looking around the store, Ruka's eyes shined slightly as she always did like bookstores. Turning to Shigure, Ruka smiled up at him, forgetting her worries for a moment as the smell of the books got her excited, "so where are your books anyway, Shigure-san?" Well...since they are here, might as well take a quick look around right? Ah, but Shoto...is he mad or worried? Hopefully, Shigure messaged someone to let Shoto know that she was safe. But really...Ruka looked over at Shigure as she asked him, "um, I know you told me several times now, but I really can't understand it Shigure-san...why me?" What has she done to pique his writer's side anyway?

Genkai Genkai
 
While Ruka knew Mela was seeing someone, Mela had yet to say who it was but Ruka could probably guess it was Toshinori based on how much time they had spent together. Still, Mela didn't know if she could really tell Ruka about All Might, at least not yet. But she didn't like having to act like she wasn't in love with him when they were out in public. But then again she could easily say she was just being a rather touchy fan...but no that wouldn't be right. She smiled when All Might agreed to head to her place, "We can always go to yours instead. I don't mind either way." She offered him. When he said he could treat Hatori, she gave a nod. She had to wager he had a lot of cash stored away from all the merchandise and everything else. Why not spoil a guest? "That's very nice of you. I'll probably get my own though." She was going to buy a lot and didn't want to make either of them pay for her addiction to sugar heh.

Picking out some more sweet, she found some monaka and some ichigo daifuku which Ruka would probably enjoy. She turned to Hatori and smiled. "I found a lot actually!" She said, knowing these finely crafted treats wouldn't last too long. She smiled even more when she saw Hatori smile. Awh, that could melt anyone's frozen heart. She froze when he mentioned her and All Might and how happy he was around her. Ahh but he was always happy, how could Hatori tell? He was just imagining things right? "Ah! Um...I am quite lucky, yes." She blushed deeply, looking off, too embarrassed to say much else. "Aww w-well I'm sure you'll find someone much better than me, H-Hatori-san" She quickly laughed. Maybe a cute nurse or assistance perhaps? Mela ducked her head and scuttled off before she fainted due to embarassment. Hatori was too kind. "I think we can all pay and maybe sit outside and eat a few?" She suggested as she stood in line after All Might. When they all got their sweets, they headed out into the dimming sunlight and sat down. "I hope these will be yummy souvenirs for everyone, Hatori-san." Mela told him as she unwrapped one of her treats and took a bit of the colorful tiny cake. "Also please thank Momiji-kun, he um really helped me." She added shyly as she glanced to All Might. Yes, they did owe Momiji for his meddling.

- - -

"...did you just say you put a tracker in her phone?" Shoto muttered under his breath. Yeah, maybe for Christmas Shoto could get her a new phone. Or maybe just a new phone for no reason this week. Yeah. He didn't want Yukito spying on Ruka! That was just too weird and controlling. Now he had to wonder if his own father had a tracker on his phone. Hopefully not. Sighing, Shoto ran a hand through his hair. He really didn't like being this far from Ruka. Not when he didn't know what was going on with her. Was she okay? Surely if Shigure did try something, Ruka would be able to keep his advances at bay. Shigure could create a clone but Ruka had taken down Bakugo so he was confident she was going to be fine. It was just a matter of where she was and when they could reach her. Shoto tugged his arm away from Yukito's grasp and followed behind him, not wanting to be dragged around like some dog.

This was some horrible nightmare. Ruka was missing, and he was stuck with two morons. Even though his fight with Honda-san had taken a mental toll on him, this was too much and he just wanted space from everyone. His headache was beginning to distract him. He could use a massage and a dip in a hot bath. Breathing, he calmed himself as they arrived at the bookstore and headed off to look around. Ayame went to one area and the other boys broke off to look elsewhere. Shoto was quick to move around others and soon the three regrouped outside. "She's not here I'm afraid." Aya said with a sweet whine. "You're not tipping off Shigure are you?" Shoto glared. "Me? Never!" Aya held up his hands. Shoto sighed, "Well there's the other bookstore, I think it's the other way." He told Yukito. "Come on!" Shoto headed off with Yukito, Ayame trailing behind them being quite useless. "If he tried anything, I might light his clothes on fire." Shoto muttered under his breath. Of course it would have to look like an accident. He still wasn't sure if this was Yukito's fault or not. He was the reason why Shigure was even around right? Shoto felt bad though, like Shigure doing this made Shoto look like a bad boyfriend who couldn't protect his love. Yet another reason for Yukito to not like him huh?

This little afternoon jaunt was quite amusing. He had to imagine what kind of panic must have befallen some of the others back at the restaurant. He was sure Ayame would stall as much as possible. Unless one of the boys tried to threaten violence. But who would do that? A hero in training would never! Using a quirk would surely mean some kind of fine or arrest right? Shigure used his quirk so harmlessly though so he wasn't worried about himself. "Huh? Oh sure sure, of course." He laughed at her comment. Of course he held up his phone to indicate he would but when she entered and became enamored by the books, he put his phone away, not really going to inform anyone. At least not yet. He was sure someone would find them eventually. Though it was a shame he couldn't take Kurotsuki back to Tokyo with him to keep him entertained. He might need a picture of her at the very least though. Eheh~

"I thought I told you already, love. The quirk, your hair, your spunk, it's all very inspiring hehe!" Shigure laughed at her doubts. She had no idea? Really? He had to wonder if she had a sheltered upbringing. If that was the case, he would have a bit more fun writing about her. How cute! It really wasn't often a stunning woman didn't know her appeal. "Your boyfriend must be terrible at complimenting you, so allow me~" He moved in closer to her, capturing her chin with his hand as he leaned close to her, smirking. "I adore those eyes of yours and how they sparkle so well in the sunlight and then that black fire that bends to your will, it's so enticing and hypnotizing...dare I say a bit sensual?" He hummed softly. "Not to mention you're both fierce and a bit shy. I love it, truly. You are a fascinating woman and I am certain my readers would agree and adore following you and your adventures as you help people, my dearest Ruka-chan." He winked as he waved a hand to show her where his books were lined up, many of the covers rather revealing and the titles a bit dramatic in word choice. "Go ahead and pick one and I'll read an excerpt to you." He smiled. Yes he would love to enthrall Ruka with some of his romantic stories, certain some of them would make her blush like a strawberry.
