Chapter 16 - Welcome Home

The hero class was once again well-adjusted with their new classmate. Mina arrived at Y/n's room early in the morning to walk with her to class. As the two traveled they collected friends on the way. Kirishima ate a breakfast burrito as they walked, Sero pulled himself and Bakugo off the couch who was too preoccupied with his phone to notice the group leaving. 

"Ah, where are Kaminari and Jirou?" Kirishima questioned with a full mouth of food "Jirous probably waiting for Kami, you know how late he can be" Sero laughed "Flirting?" Y/n questioned turning to Mina "Probably"

"Sorry we're late! Come on idiot" Jirou tugged on Kaminari's arm, his blazer bearly buttoned up with his toothbrush still in his mouth "Definitely flirting"

"Ew Kami bro brush you're teeth in the dorms" "I didn't have time!" The boy finished brushing his teeth and left it on the banister of the dorm's front porch. "Dude gross" Kirshima said watching the boy hurriedly button his jacket up. "I'll pick it up when we get back!"

Jirou paced over to Mina and Y/n who walked at the front of the group with linked arms"I do not know how you like him" Mina nudged Jirou in the arm "No one does" Bakugo commented beside them as he read something on his phone.

"Yeah can't tell you" Jirou rolled her eyes. The 4 looked back at the trailing 3, "You're flies undone bro" "SHIT!" "Got you!" "HEY FUCK YOU MAN!" Kaminari jumped on Sero's back which caused them to bump into Kirishima and his breakfast burrito "MY BURRITO!" He cried.

"Flirting?" Y/n pointed to the three "No... at least I don't think so" Mina giggled. "Come on babes can't be late" Mina called linking her other arm around Jirou's arm, Jirou, in turn, pinched a part of Bakugo's sleeve and dragged him along "Hurry up shitty hair" "Katsuki!" He cried as Bakugo grabbed the back of the boy's neck, reflexively Kirishima reached over to Sero who had Kaminari on his back and grabbed him by the arm pulling them with the group.

The chain of friends laughed and chatted all the way to class. To get out of the chain of friends Bakugo stepped to the other side next to Y/n. As they walked she look at what the boy was reading. "Hero news?" Y/n read out loud, the boy looked up "Mind your fucking business Cupid" He huffed. "Cupid?" "Aw, that's a cute name! Cupid's like an angel of love" Mina explained.

Shrugging off the assumed insult the group entered the classroom. Mina and Y/n sat on Y/n's desk with their back's against the window, and Jirou sat in Y/n's seat beside them with her arms resting over Y/n's legs. Bakugo sat at his desk beside Y/n's, Kaminari daringly planted himself on the corner of Bakugo's desk, Sero sat in his seat in front of Bakugo's desk but sat backward with his legs on either side of the back of the chair. Kirishima pulled his chair around into the aisle.

"I'm so hyped for the next couple of weeks! Training is gonna be intense!" "Well, it has to be with the sports festivals coming up" "Ugh that means Aizawa's gonna push us really hard" Kaminari groaned. 

"Sports festivals?" Y/n questioned. "That's right you weren't here, we have the yearly sports festival in 2 weeks" The girl glanced at her friend still confused "Right fighting ring ahhh" Mina tried to think of the words.

"We basically all compete to show who's the better hero!" Kirishima smiled "It's televised worldwide!! So usually if we do good enough pro will ask us to intern with them after!" "Right... And no killing I'm assuming" "No babes. Please don't kill anyone again" Mina sweat dropped patting her friend's leg.

"Hey Bakugo maybe you'll finally get to fight Y/n then" Sero pointed out, finally the boy looks up from his phone "If she can get high enough in the ranks to fight me" He laughed. "I get to fight people?" "Yeah it's in a massive arena, usually for the final contest you go toe to toe with the other finalists"

This kind of competition was Y/n's skill, it was her whole life. Something in her chest bubbled with excitement knowing she'd be allowed to fight people without any expectation to kill, just to win. Easy.

Aizawa stumbled into class instructing everyone to take the proper places, Mina let out a groan "See you babes" She grumbled slipping off the table and heading to her desk, Jirou doing the same. Y/n fell back off the desk into her seat and sat quietly as Aizawa did roll call. 

By the end of the day, everyone was exhausted. Kaminari was right, Aizawa had really picked up training. Both because of the sports festivals and because the class all got captured everyone assumed he was just wanting them to improve.

The whole time Y/n was sat on the side in her formal uniform as she watched her friends train. She knew the doctors advised her to go easy but this felt too easy. She wanted to run and fight with her fellow classmates. She itched for some kind of training but Aizawa refused to give it to her.

Wandering beside the girls as they made their way into the changing rooms they all gossiped and chirped on about what they wanted to do after class. "Yo, tomorrow night we should all go the arcade or something!"Hakajure proposed "That's such a good idea! like a full-class arcade night!" Uraraka smiled.

"Oh I can wear that new cute top I bought" "You just wanna tease the boys, that top is so low" Mina giggled at Momo's comment giving her a wink "Flirting?" Y/n questioned sitting on the bench in the middle of the room with her legs crossed. Mina spun around and ruffled her hair "She's learning!" She cheered before dressing back into her uniform.

As the girls were leaving Y/n felt a tug on her shirt sleeve, turning around she saw Tsu. "So ah Y/n, ribbit, would you wanna come to the pools with me after class? I wanted to do more swim training and I thought you might wanna come" Tsu looked a little sheepish asking. She fiddled with her bag strap while looking at her feet. Not hearing a response she turned her gaze up to the girl.

A bright excitable look twinkled in her eyes, her wings were frantically flapping as she looked down at the girl. "Yes... I would... love to" She spoke trying to say the right words. For the first time, she sounded genuinely very excited. Tsu smiled a big bright smile "Amazing! I'll be going straight after class I just need to go to the dorms to get my swimmers Ribbit"

Later that afternoon Mina walked up to Y/n's door and knocked "Babes I got the swimsuit you needed" She called, the door swung open and quickly shut. Mina realized the one piece in her hands was swiped. "Pfft, your welcome!" She called into the door.

"Ugh, Pinky what the fuck are you yelling about" Bakugo questioned stepping out of his room. He could hear the slamming of doors and yelling from inside his room. Suddenly Y/n's door swung back open and out dashed the winged girl sporting the sensual black swimsuit she wore once before and a towel over her shoulder.

"Thank you bestie!" She said loudly yet flatly giving Mina a single arm hug, in the same movement she spun her friend around and let go to dash down the hall. Bakugo watched the girl run, her hair flying back as she ran, her wings fluttering in jow. They could see her race up to the window at the end of the hall and suddenly leap out of it.

"Jesus! She's fast!" Mina cried watching her friend leap into the air and glide assumably to the bottom floor. Downstairs Tsu casually walked through the common room in her swimsuit "I'm going for a swim Ribbit" "Ok don't stay in the pool all night" Uraraka warned, the frog girl looked at her friend with a cheeky look. "Tsu I highly advise only going for a couple of hours!" Iida called.

Sticking her tongue out she skipped out of the room. Standing outside she questioned if Y/n had already left or if she was late. With a sudden thud beside her, she looked over and saw the girl she was just thinking about standing casually beside her. Kicked-up dirt floated around her feet due to her rapid landing.

"Okie dokie lets go!" Tsu smiled, "Okie dokie" Y/n's flat tone mimicked. The two arrived at the pools and both dropped their items quickly before diving elegantly into the water. Y/n could feel the water rush over her feathers, her scars and stitches felt both relaxed and irritated by the water. 

Nevertheless, Y/n and Tsu swam around in laps for hours. Back at the dorms, it was starting to get dark, the moment the clock hit 7 Iida stood up "Tsu has been in the pool for 4 hours she should come back" "Calm down Iida she might be coming back soon"

"Hey has anyone seen Y/n she's not in her room?" Sero asked as he entered the common room. Anxiousness fell over everyone hearing their classmate was gone again. "Don't be so tense she's just at the pool with Tsu" Mina sighed. Everyone automatically relaxed.

"Wait so Tsu AND Y/n are in the pool?" Izuku questioned. Hearing the question everyone realized the two won't be back for a long time. And they were right because around 9 o'clock Tsu and Y/n were still in the pool, both girls were softly drifting in the water, arms, and legs spread out as they floated on their backs. 

"It's nice having you back" Tsu spoke, the winged girl glanced over to her friend "Why's that?" "Well, I will admit I was scared, probably more than most of the class. But while you were gone I missed having someone around who loved swimming as much as me" She paused "I'm glad you're back. I think everyone is" She said softly before diving back into the water.

Y/n couldn't fathom how Tsu felt about her, she just assumed everyone would hate her. It's nice not to be hated or feared. Suddenly the gate to the swimming area swung open "BOTH OF YOU GET OUT OF THE POOL"! Iida cried.

Moments later in the dorms as everyone finished their dinners Iida pushed two soggy girls through the doors, both looking frustrated that they couldn't swim for longer. Tsu sat beside Izuku and Uraraka while Y/n planted herself on the couch between Kirishima and Mina.

"Come on babes you can be upset you were swimming for 6 hours" Mina laughed. Y/n grumbled in response before Kirishima handed her a new bag of caramel sweets, her eyes lighting up as she gobbled down the treats. "Don't spoil your appetite!" Iida cried.

The next afternoon everyone was getting ready to go to the arcade. Mina stepped out into the hallway in a tight-fitting pink skirt with a cute crop top t-shirt with a vintage-looking motif on the front. Looking down the hall she sweatdrops seeing Y/n's outfit. 

Y/n wore the same pair of tights she usually wears under her uniform and an unironed tank top they've seen her wear a million times. "Come on girl you gotta have more clothes than that" "I don't" "That's really sad" 

Jirou and Momo strolled up beside the girls "Jirou do you have anything Y/n can wear? Don't think she'd like anything of mine, even though I have awesome style" "Oh yeah sure, you ok with jeans and a band T?" Jirou asked Y/n. "Ah wings" She gestured to the wings on her back "Oh I could make you a shirt with my quirk?" Momo offered.

"Oh um... Yes please," The girl agreed sheepishly. While Jirou went back to her room to get some jeans and Momo made her a shirt Mina rushed over using her fingers to brush Y/n's hair into a messy half up half down hairstyle rather than her usual ratty untied hair. 

The girls shoved Y/n into her room to let her change and when she came out she was wearing the baggy ripped jeans Jirou gave her and the oversized fake band T-shirt Momo made with wing holes on the back. "How are you feeling babes?" Y/n paused for a moment. "Cozy" "Awesome! Then let's go!" Mina pulled her arm around Y/n's shoulder and they all walked together to the common room.

(Just imagining something like this but feel free to change it up if you'd like)

Everyone downstairs looked up to the group of girls who were the last to arrive. "Finally can we go now" Bakugo groaned "Come on Katsuki slow down" Kirishima called following the grumpy blonde. "How were you even able to get him to come?" Mina asked still entangled with Y/n.

"I told him we could do laser tag which he said he didn't want to do but I said that's cause I'd beat him-" "LIKE HELL YOU WILL SHITTY HAIR" Kirishima gave Mina and Y/n a looked that said 'see?'

The group of students traveled to the train station which took them to a big city of blinking lights. Mina held Y/n's hand as the girl looked around with dazzled eyes. Everything was so bright even when it was nighttime. Something even more miraculous was the building of colourful flashing games.

"Dibs on DDR!" Mina cried running into the arcade. Y/n stood between Kirishima and Bakugo with a shocked look on her face. The two looked down at the stationary girl and saw the sweetest look of pure bliss they'd ever seen.

"Anything you wanna go to first?" Kirishima asked, She quickly pointed to a big claw machine with massive fluffy stuffed toys inside. The two followed the girl as she wandered over to the machine pressing her nose to the glass. 

"Here you can use my tokens for a game if you want!" Kirishima smiled, the girl pressed the coin into the machine and it started to wur and buzz to life. "Move the joystick and try to pick up a toy" Y/n attempted to do so but was far off of the toy she wanted to get. 

"Here I can try" Kirishima suggested stepping up to the machine and trying himself but inevitably losing. "Shitty Hair move over" Bakugo hip-checked the boy out of the way causing him to stumble into Y/n. Bakugo also attempted to win a toy and was able to get one in the claw. But at the last moment, it slipped from his grip. With a yell, Bakugo hit the machine in anger. 

"Again!" He yelled going for another game. Kirishima and Y/n stood to the side as the boy went through several games attempting to grab a big fluffy my melody plush from the game. "He gets a little competitive" Kirishima laughed, Y/n watched on in entertainment as the boy furiously tried to win the game.

Finally, the claw hung to the side of the plush and stayed, as it dropped into the shoot Bakugo let out a yell of triumph. Reaching down he pulled the plush from the machine and threw it at Y/n. "There Cupid Bitch! Come on shitty hair I wanna see what else I can win!" Bakugo yelled before storming off further into the arcade. With a shrug Kirishima followed, looking back to make sure Y/n was ok she had toddled off with the plush towards Mina's grounp.

Mina was at the DDR machine versing Sero who even with his acrobatic abilities couldn't keep up with Mina's hip-hop skills. As the game ended Mina cheered in joy at her win and Sero groaned in exhaustion. 

"Jesus Ashido how much do you play these games?" Sero questioned stepping off the pads. "She's been doing this since first-year" Jirou laughed "No no way longer than that! I was doing this shit in middle school!" Mina exclaimed.

Seeing the winged girl walk over she noticed the plush in her arms. Y/n hugged the toy to her chest, a gleeful expression across her face. "Aw Y/n did you win that?" "Sure" "Well wanna try this?" Mina gestured to the DDR game.

Silently the girl placed the plush in Jirou's lap as she sat on the side with Sero and Kaminari. Y/n stepped up to the pads and Mina let the tutorial video play. When they began Mina let her choose the song. Y/n chose a random song and Mina rested her hands on the backrest behind her. Y/n following her.

As the game played the group watched Y/n and Mina dance in rhythm, even though Y/n was a little sloppier than Mina she followed the instructions extremely well. Iida, Izuku, Todoroki, and Uraraka wandered over to watch. Izuku had an All Might plush under his arm which he had obviously won.

"Wow they're really good" Uraraka smiled, "Yes with Y/n's stamina and Mina's dance capabilities they are worthy rivals for each other" "Iida my guy... Chill out for a single fuckin night" "Apologies"

The group cheered on the girls as they danced. Mina chose the next song and as they danced Kirishima tugged over Bakugo who had a fist full of tickets from games he won. They looked on with the rest of the group. 

Swiftly Y/n let go of the railing behind her, pulling the hair tie from her hair and flicking the shag of hair into a ponytail before going back to the railing not missing a step. Her confidence in so casually tieing her hair spurred something in the female attracted people in the group. She was so concentrated, such a good dancer. Plus her and Mina had very nice hips.

As the dance ended the group clicked out of their trance. "Oh my god girl you're so good!" Mina exclaimed "We are so doing more of this later" She smiled. Y/n flashed her a polite smile back. "Okie dokie! What next guys!" Mina called to the group.
