Prompt: The squad goes Ice-Skating, only to learn something interesting.
I wrote this in my composition book while without internet, and my hand hurt by the end. This took 8 pages.
Warnings: Fluff

"Get bundled up, kid."

"Why?"

"We have to take class 1-A out, and I am not going by myself."

"Where?"

"They want to go ice-skating."

"You could have just said that!"

"I didn't feel it was necessary, brat."

"You could have been taking me to my death for all I know!"

"Just get dressed. Oh, and don't wear your arm. You need a break."

With that, Shouta leaves my toasty warm dorm for the outside world.

Today is going to be terrible. It's too cold for this bullshit!

Yes! For once, I am against something! I have some self-preservation, you know?!

I groan as I find my thickest clothes and shove them on with a little difficulty due to a lack of an arm. I make it work, though. I make sure to grab a head covering a glove (sadly, I had to use my mouth for that) to keep as much warmth as possible.

When I come out, the first thing I hear is laughter.

"OH MY GOSH, IZU! YOU LOOK LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO THE NORTH POLE!" Hizashi wheezes out.

Nemuri, meanwhile, approaches me while holding her gut from laughter, "Please let me help! You look ridiculous!"

I huff, "I rather look ridiculous than freeze!"

"You won't freeze if you have fun!" Hizashi chimes in.

"You just don't understand!" I whimper, starting my fake crying business.

Nemuri raises her hands, "Alright, alright! You can keep the outfit on!"

I brighten up immediately, "Good!"

"What is going on here?"

Everyone settles down as we turn around to see Shouta in his winter hero costume that I made for him a while back. I told him that it would be useful! Shouta looks at them then me.

He sighs, "Yes. He normally goes out like that and still complains about being cold. That's why I caught him in a bar a few times just to avoid it."

Nemuri nods toward me, "So we're taking him like this?"

"HEY!" I scream.

"Yes, " Shouta says, cutting me off."

"Damn it, " Nemuri mutters.

Shouta takes a moment before asking, "We?" Both of them quickly not, "No."

Hizashi crawls over to his boyfriend and clings to him, "Come on, babe! Please?! You know how much we love ice-skating!"

"I' am not taking care of this group and 1-A."

"We'll go to a different area to skate and keep our cellphones on us in case you need us. Just please?!"

Shouta must be going soft because he pinches the bridge of his nose and says ,"Fine."

"Yay! Thank you!"

"Shut up."

Hizashi and Nemuri quietly celebrate their victory. It's at this moment I realize that I have a chance of getting out of this mess!

"Does that mean I don't have to go?" I ask.

Nemuri and Hizashi stop mid-celebration and look at me like I have lost my marble.

Nemuri struts right in front of me and bends down to my height, "The squad sticks together, even through the harshest of conditions. Besides, we have never ice-skated together before!"

"Within reason," I mumble, kicking the ground like the child I am.

"I'll get you a months worth of chocolate."

Shouta quickly tries to stop that deal, "No-"

However, nothing can get in the way of chocolate and I, "Okay, I'll go!"

Shouta sighs in agony.

At the same time, Hizashi questions, "Is it bad that we have to bribe Izuku to come with us?"

Nemuri straightens up, "Nah!"

- - -

I regret my life choices.

As soon as the students were set free, Hizashi and Nemuri dragged me with them to rent a disgusting pair of skates. No amount of bleach wipes ever going to get those fuckers clean.

I attempt to get out of it, "How about I watch and y'all skate?"

Hizashi, beside me bleaching my other skate, says, "Nope! That's boring! You're becoming more like Sho by the second!"

I look out at your skating rink, that happens to be a frozen lake, and it is huge. For how far away we went, you can barely see my classmates and Shouta anymore!

"That does not seem to be something that can hold my weight, " I comment.

Nemuri facepalms, "Even with all those clothes, you're probably still smaller than us."

"AM NOT!"

"Are too! Now, get those skates on before I drag you in socks!"

I am trying for any excuse at this point, "I'm missing an arm?"

Hizashi hands me my skate while he responds, "Izuku, you have to go out of your comfort zone outside of hero work sometimes."

"I don't wanna." Hizashi snorts.

Suddenly, Nemuri's loud voice catches us, causing us to look up to see her already on the ice spinning around, "Don't you wanna do this, Izu?!"

"Not in particular."

Finally, I get my skates on. Hizashi already has his on and is standing, so he helps me off the bench.

I think now is a great time to mention that I have never skated before. Sure, I kind of did at the Sports Festival, but that was with shoes. I have never done it on skates before. I am hoping to God my brain can figure out how to in five seconds. It's possible, right?

Hizashi and I waddle to the edge of the ice, and he goes first, giving me a chance to examine the basics.

"Come on, Izu!" Nemuri calls out.

It's now or never.

I step on the ice slowly and attempt to follow Hizashi's method.

I quickly start losing my grip on reality, lifting my arms for balance only to remember that one of them got turned into stew. I start to fall forward only to feel an arm wrap around my chest and force me back up. Before I have a chance to fall backwards, an arm wraps tightly around my shoulders.

"Don't freak out, "Hizashi demands quickly. Turns out, he is my lord and savior. I nod, taking a moment to settle down.

Nemuri interrupts my thoughts, "Have you skated before, Izu?"

"Uh, no?" Why would I with my hatred to the face?"

Nemuri facepalms, "And why didn't you tell us?"

"I thought I could get it within five seconds?"

Hizashi chuckles, " I know you don't do this anymore, but some things take practice/"

"I could have hoped."

Nemuri claps her hands together, "It's a good thing you can't!"

"What the fuck? How?"

"It means we can finally teach you something!"

"But who wants to do that?"

Both of them exclaim, "We do!"

"Y'all are weird."

"Says the one who's dressed ridiculously," Nemuri scoffs as she skates in front of me.

"HEY!" She ignores me.

"Alright, give me your hands." I offer one hand.

"The other got donated to the antichrist." She chuckles.

"Not surprising. Just used to seeing you with that robotic arm. For now, just let me drag you around so you get used to being on the ice! Hizashi will stay by your side in case yo ufall again."

"If I fall, I am fighting."

Hizashi laughs as he finally lets go of me, "You'll be fine. Come on!"

As they said, Nemuri dragged me around for a bit and Hizashi caught me whenever I fucked up.

It took me a couple of hours, but I was able to skate by the time we had to return home.

For some reason, those two were super happy the whole time about teaching me. I will forever question it. I appreciate what they taught me, but it doesn't stop me from hating the cold or asking about the chocolate when we get back.

I have my priorities in the right place! Don't worry!
