Chapter 63: Back in Class
The next day, classes are back in session. You had been set up in a room near Recovery Girl's office with your things, and had spent the night. Before class, she had worked on healing some of your wounds, so you were extra tired.
Not wanting to miss anything, you convince her to let you go up to your class. Shinsou meets you and carries your things as you use crutches to help you walk.
"Wouldn't it be better to use a wheelchair?" He asks you.
"I'm fine! I've been sitting enough, I need to stretch my body!" You say as you wince in pain.
"I'm just saying, your shoulders aren't even fully healed, and you've got crutches shoved in your armpits. That can't feel good. Not to mention your stomach and leg."
"I'm totally fine!" As you say it, you stumble forward, and Shinsou catches you.
"Fine my ass."
You force yourself back up and roll your eyes. "So I stumbled a little, who cares!"
"I care."
The seriousness of his voice catches you off guard, and you feel your face flush. Shinsou's arm is still wrapped around in front of you, his face dangerously close to yours.
Your words catch in your throat as you make eye contact with him. His face is full of concern, and you feel yours become even more red as you glance down at his lips. He catches your gaze, and begins to realize just how close your faces are. As his begins to heat up, he locks eyes with you.
"Y/n!!! Is that you?!" A voice calls out from behind you, startling the two of you out of your thoughts.
You both turn to see Midoriya jogging down the hall.
"Oh, it's you!" He says as he sees Shinsou helping you.
Shinsou looks away from Midoriya and helps you steady yourself on your crutches. "I'm bringing her up to her class."
"Here, let me help, we're going to the same room!"
"I have her."
"O-oh, right, are you sure?"
"I said I've got her."
"Hitoshi, won't you be late for class? We already heard the warning bell..." You say.
He sighs and runs his hand through his hair. "Yeah I guess..."
"It's okay, I don't want to make you late. Midoriya and I will be fine."
Shinsou doesn't say anything and simply shrugs. He drops your things in Midoriya's hands and says goodbye to you.
"I'll see you after class, Hitoshi!" He waves in response as he walks down the hall without looking at you.
"Sorry... I feel like I did something wrong..." Midoriya says.
"Ah don't worry about it, he's just worried about me."
What was I thinking before Midoriya showed up...?! Hitoshi's my friend! Get those thoughts out of your head!!
Still embarrassed, you struggle to follow along with Midoriya's questions about your health.
The two of you make it into class just before the final bell and as you enter, everyone turns their attention to you.
"Y/n! Are you okay?!"
"We saw what happened on the news!"
"I can't believe you four ran into the Hero Killer!"
"Yeah thank god Endeavor showed up to save you!"
As you're surrounded by everyone, you can't help but notice Bakugou's hair is styled like it was when you ran into him on patrol. He had been trying to cover it, but you recognized it immediately. Seeing it distracts you from the complicated thoughts of Shinsou that are spinning around your head.
You can't help but let out a laugh, and Bakugou immediately knows what caused it.
"Shut up!!! It got stuck like this!!"
Kirishima and Sero turn their attention towards him and join you in laughing. The others chuckle as well when they see it.
"Seriously?! How did we miss that?!" The two boys double over laughing their hearts out at the blond's hair.
"It's stuck!! Even after washing it a hundred times!!"
The boys continue laughing along with you, and even Midoriya let's out a small chuckle.
Bakugou's face goes bright red and his hair poofs back into its regular shape. "Knock it off!!"
You laugh even harder and grip your stomach as the pain flares. "It did it again...!" You manage to wheeze, referring to the boy's hair.
"Y/n, are you okay?" Todoroki steps towards you. "You should sit."
You wave your hand at him and stand up straighter with a small wince. "I'm okay, I'm okay!"
Iida tells everyone to make space for you to get to your desk, and Todoroki and Midoriya help you sit down.
"Seriously guys, I'm fine!"
"Y/n, you were carried through the air by a Nomu, got a concussion, and were stabbed multiple times. I wouldn't call that fine." Todoroki says bluntly.
"Not to mention you were in a coma for a few days..." Midoriya says.
"You guys are seriously lucky you made it out alive!" Kaminari exclaims. "I doubt I would have walked away after running into him."
"Thank goodness the pros were able to take him down..." Mina says.
"Yeah... The pros..." You share a knowing look with the three boys who fought alongside you.
Before anyone else can add anything, the door opens and Aizawa walks into the class. He sees you and his usual frown deepens.
"Y/n... What are you doing here?"
You jump a little in your seat and nervously fiddle with your uniform. "I really didn't want to miss anything, so Recovery Girl said I could come to class today as long as I was careful..."
He sighs. "You're not participating in All Might's class this afternoon. You can sit and watch."
"Yes sir!"
"Now, let's start class."
By the time your physical heroics class rolls around, you are ready for a nap.
"Oh god, do we have to go up there?" You groan as you look at the tall building in front of you.
"Y/n, I'll carry you again." Todoroki says.
"Huh?!" Bakugou whips his head to look at the two of you.
For class, you were instructed to meet All Might at the top of the building's roof in Field Gamma for today's exercise. The elevator is busted, and there are at least five flights of stairs to climb.
"She can't walk up all of those stairs with crutches." Todoroki says matter-of-factly.
"No shit! But why would you be the one carrying her up?! You're still injured! You wanna drop her? I'll do it!" Bakugou huffs at Todoroki who looks equally annoyed. "You carry her crutches!"
He takes your crutches from you and shoves them at Todoroki.
"I'm really fine, I can just lift myself up with ice, I don't want to bother you both."
"You're so tired you'd probably end up falling off." Bakugou rolls his eyes at you.
"Hey! Have some faith in me," you say.
"He does have a point, Y/n. You shouldn't be overworking yourself." Midoriya says.
"I don't need your support!"
Bakugou turns to squabble with Todoroki and poor Midoriya, who was simply trying to help.
In the meantime Sero and Kirishima stop beside you.
"What's got Bakugou all worked up?" Sero asks.
"He was trying to help, but I don't think he knows how to go about it the right way..." You explain.
"You need a hand going up? Swing an arm around us both, and we'll help you on the stairs." Sero flashes a toothy smile at you.
You give him a big smile back and thank him. "That's a lot less embarrassing than being carried!"
The two boys agree, and the three of you slowly make your way up the stairs. You're already on the third floor by the time you hear Bakugou and Todoroki realize you were gone. The two come loudly up the stairs followed by a stressed Midoriya.
"What are you two idiots doing?!"
"Oh, Bakugou, took you long enough! Y/n needed a hand up, so we're helping her." Kirishima tells him.
Bakugou fumes, but stays quiet. When you continue up the stairs, Bakugou and Todoroki quietly bicker with each other behind you.
At the top, All Might is waiting with the rest of the class.
"There you all are! Young Y/n, why didn't you have someone come get me? I could have had you up here in a flash! I wasn't expecting you in class today, otherwise I would have waited for you!"
"He's got a good point, why didn't one of you guys just get All Might?" Jiro asks.
You can't help but laugh at the suggestion. "That probably would have been the easiest solution..."
"Not to worry, I'll help you down once class is over. Thank you Kirishima and Sero for giving her a hand. Now, let's begin!"
