Third Person POV

While Kamui and Edgeshot were in the center of the mall, doin the shit that lovers do like the absolute dorks they are, everyone in class 1-A we're having the time of their lives just looking around and shopping.

Remember the three rules Kamui and Edgeshot said before they went in? Stay in the mall, don't do anything to get you kicked out, and show up when they leave? Surprisingly, most of them were only breaking 1 of those rules.

This, my children, is the story of how Class 1-A somehow didn't get kicked out of the mall...
-----------------------------------------------------

"Class 1-A"

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: So how long does everyone think their shopping might take?

TheAndroidSentByTensei: Anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour depending on how Aoyama is feeling

~Shishtar Shparkles~: I'm feeling a bit like a 30 today~

Ada Wong: Denki we're going to take at least 15 hours if you don't just pick a dress already...

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: I can't help it! These dresses are cute as hell!

Norbert: Lmao well Tooru and I are probably going to take an hour or so, we need to find the perfect matching outfits! Actually she's looking at dresses rn so she can't text.

Engineer: Kyo and I shouldn't take too long. I'm actually feeling in more of a suit mood so we're dress shopping for her right now and then shopping for suits for me later!

Gravity Don't Mean Too Much to Me: Um???? A lesbian icon???

RockHard™️: I'm the gayest person alive but girls in suits are pretty 👌👌👌👌

Ada Wong: Honestly such a mood.

Gravity Don't Mean Too Much to Me: Legit couldn't agree more. But to answer your question, me and Tsu are shopping right now and we don't really take too long... maybe about 15 minutes?

In the Arms of an Angel: As much as I love Tokoyami, he takes forever to choose the right outfit... I'm already done but we may take a while until he finds something that fits his aesthetic enough.

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: You love him huh? ;))))))

In the Arms of an Angel: stfustfu

Candyman: Ko and I already bought our suits, but he suggested getting matching corsages so we're in the flower shop right now. He said he's going the make them himself to feel more personalized so we may take a while.

Purity uwu: ^~^

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: Take as much time as you need you funky lil' cowboy

Purity uwu: ^-^👍

Kangaroo Jackie-Chan: Honestly, me and Shinsou have no clue how long we might take. Although we're probs going to take an hour and a half because he needs his aesthetic.

Ada Wong: What's with emos and their aesthetics?

Fucknugget: It's each of our sacred treasures

O.K. KYO: It's how emos all over the world become connected with eachother

TheseEyebagsAreGucci: If the aesthetic is done right, we look damn fine. But it's a careful process.

Ada Wong: Understandable, have a nice day.

RockHard™️: Speaking of emos and their aesthetics, I'm currently struggling to get Katsuki a suit since he thinks all of this is "fucking stupid" and he won't get a suit unless it's cool enough for him. And you know how he likes nothing soooo.... I'd say a minimum of 3 hours

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: Wonderful

Bone hurty Juice: Sho and I already finished actually! We even got matching promise rings!

Ada Wong: Jesus Christ how

Icy T H O T: Hard work.

Icy T H O T: ...and my dad's credit card

Norbert: Makes sense, makes sense.

Leon "the S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: Okay chill, should we tell Kamui and Edgeshot about 3 hours?

Kangaroo Jackie-Chan: Yeah sure! I'll tell Kamui!

Leon "The S stands for Sexy" Skennedy: Sweet

Private messages between Kangaroo Jackie-Chan and The Lorax

Kangaroo Jackie-Chan: We just talked about when we'll finish in our gc and we should take about 3 hours!

The Lorax: Great. I'll tell Shinya.

Kangaroo Jackie-Chan: Alright and don't get up to anything too scandalous while we're gone ;)

The Lorax: I could say the same about you and Shinsou. What's that you said to me about him again? You thought he looked really cute in the sports uniform? And you especially liked how it clearly defined his-

Kangaroo Jackie-Chan: I'm rEPORTING YOU TO MR. AIZAWA THIS IS CHILD ABUSE.

The Lorax: Lol
-----------------------------------------------------

Iida's POV

As of right now, Aoyama and myself were checking out a high-class suit shop in the mall. So far we've picked out a blue button up for myself, and black slacks and suit jacket. Pretty simple, but it looks fashionable!

I was trying to help Aoyama find the sparkliest outfit he could that was still within our budget. Granted, my family was rich, and his were pretty well off, but that doesn't mean we can go around and spend all the money at once like imbeciles!

"Oooh... Iida, how do you think this would look on me~?" He smiles at me and pulls out a satin lavender vest. Being the honest friend I am, I told him the exact truth upon further observation and comparison between his features and the vest... I think I may be reading too much into this, oh well! It'll look nice on him!

"It's certainly bright, which definitely fits you! It also brings out your eyes spectacularly! I would be a great pick!" I give him a quick thumbs up and flash a supportive smile. He cups his cheek in one of his hands and does the "oh stop it you~" motion with the other.

"Monsieur, you flatter me~" he giggles and carefully sets it over his shoulder. From then on, a whole lot of trial and error went on. First he tried a gold shirt.... very obnoxious and a little tacky.... then a pair of gold pants... very gaudy.

In the end, we decided in a regular white dress shirt, the lavender vest, a gold tie and sky blue pants. Normally it's something that a person could never pull off... but we were about to see if Aoyama could do it.

Sitting outside the changing station on a soft bench, I wait for only about 10 minutes after he first enters before he walks back out. He looks...

Ravishing!

He really could make it work! The gold tie and purple vest brought beautiful attention to his facial features, and the sky blue pants were bright enough to still catch your attention, but still melded incredibly well with the other colors!

"Aoyama! You look amazing!"

"When do I not~" he giggles again and walks back into the changing room to change back into his casual clothes. I feel like I may be outdressed at the dance... looking at the clock on my phone, our shopping only took about 30 minutes... 5 being for me and the other 25 just for Aoyama. I wonder, with this extra time, maybe we could just grab a bite to eat or something to drink? Whatever he prefers! Then we could have some extra time to talk with eachother!

Despite being mostly wheelchair bound after the... incident, with only him to push me around, we never actually got to learn much about eachother! Maybe I could change that today!

As soon as my thoughts are finished, Aoyama walks out of his dressing room with his clothing items neatly laying over his arm. We nod to eachother and head over to pay for the clothes. While walking, he begins to ramble.

"These clothes are a little dull compared to what I'm used to, but I can just bedazzle them at home.~ I also should create a makeup look to go with this outfit, I'm thinking blue and purple eye shadow with gold liner... swished up into a perfect and sharp wing~" he goes on enthusiastically, earning my interest.

"Oh, and you can never forget mascara and highlighter... but should I go with a natural glow or a blinding glow... actually, should I get fake lashes...?~ What do you think Iida?~" he looks over to me suddenly while we're in line.

"Uhm... you should go with bright highlighter, to match your personality, as for lashes... just do mascara to show off your liner and lids but... curl them for a better look..?" I say as best as I could. My knowledge on makeup is very limited, but I think I know enough! While I was in a wheelchair, Aoyama made me watch a couple Jeffree Star videos so I think I know at least the basics!

"Monsieur you're brilliant!" Aoyama lights up, somehow brighter than normal.

"I'll use my Blue Blood palette.. as well as my curler... bedazzler.. highlighter and mascara!" He finished excitedly, just in time as well, we've reached the counter!

We quickly pay for our clothes and leave the store, while exiting, I look over to him quickly.

"Considering that we've finished our shopping, would you like to go get something to eat?" I propose and he looks at me slightly suggestively... I don't trust that look.

"Iida, are you asking me out on a date?~" he winks to me, I immediately feel my cheeks heat up, not a lot... but still significantly.

"N-No! Not at all! Unless you would like it to be..? But originally I meant it just as friends!!" I wave my hands defensively in front of me, Aoyama just giggles... but maliciously this time.

"Whatever you say...~" he says and immediately starts to walk ahead of me towards the food court.

With an embarrassed sigh, I walk ahead to catch up with him. The wait in line was awkward for me... Aoyama just radiated smugness... I honestly didn't mean it as a date! But... somehow he has me rethinking my own decision?? What kind of sorcer-

"I'm paying this time, what would you like Iida?~" he waves his wallet in front of me, apparently he already ordered for himself, my head immediately snaps up to look at the menu.

"May I get... a blueberry jam bubble tea and a yogurt parfait?" I smile down at the cashier. He immediately rings up the order and Aoyama pays quickly. After waiting for only about 5 minutes for our food, we go over to a small, 2-person table and sit down.

"Are you reallly sure you didn't mean this as a date?~" Aoyama says while taking a bite from his strawberry shortcake. My face grows as red as the strawberries in my parfait.

"Yes! I am very certain!" I yell quietly, careful to not bring attention to ourselves.

"Are you sure you still don't want it to be a date?~"

"I...Uhm..." He's really making me doubt my own thinking?

"That's what I thought~" he said finally, taking another bite.

Damn this evil croissant man.
-----------------------------------------------------

Hagakure's POV

"What should we do to match?"

"Uh...Matching colors??"

"Okay then... pink??"

"Yell heah"

Mina and I smile brightly at eachother while we hold hands, I really wish she could see me. I mean, I can see me, but no one else can.

While skipping to the store we needed to get to, I thought silently to myself, I really want her to see me, I want everyone to see me! What if there was a way for them to..? What if-

Wait

Makeup

God, I watch so much Drag Race and Queer-Eye... how have I not thought of this sooner?

"Hey, Mina!" I call to her and we stop right in front of the store, she looks at me curiously while we walk over to the side of the entrance.

"What's up T?" She smiles at me.

"What if I wore makeup to the dance... everyone could see me! You could see me!!" I bounce up and down excitedly. This could work!

"That's a great idea! But... we might need a bit more than makeup because... literally everything is invisible." Shit she's right.

"So we'll need... sclera lenses, fake teeth-"

"-Or teeth molds!-"

"-Oooh yeah, good idea. Something that can color the inside of my mouth... a wig that matches my actual hair, lashes..."

"We can figure out the rest while we're shopping babe." Mina kisses my forehead, causing me to giggle.

"For now, let's just enjoy ourselves, and get our shopping on!" She yells excitedly and pulls me inside the store, I laugh and run along with her into the store. As soon as we get inside, we dart towards the dresses sections, grabbing almost anything that's pink.

"Why don't we pick dresses for eachother???" I look over to her and she lights up, giving me a thumbs up.

"Good idea! But you're not allowed to see what I pick out for you!" She shouts and heads over to the opposite end of the section.

"Right back at you!" I shout and start looking frantically through the section of clothes in front of me.... what would Mina like.... I ended up settling on a light pink strapless sweater dress with a thick black belt around the midriff, the skirt section was much fluffier and mostly white with pink paint splatters

After about 15-ish minutes, we run back to eachother with a dress each in our arms, almost completely bumping into eachother before skidding to a stop. Then we just threw the dresses at eachother.

I grabbed the dress after is splat on my face and held it in front of me to look at it.

It was... wow. It was adorable, and beautiful. Light pink and white, mid-thigh length and... too beautiful to put into words.

"Aw babe I love it!"

"I love mine too!" We look up to eachother and hug, giving a quick peck on the lips.

"By the way there are also some white thigh high cat socks in there if you didn't see them."

"Even better!" I smile at her and we walk to the cash register to pay. After paying, we walk out with our bags in our hands and skip to the next store.

"Hey, so where are we going to get the make up?"

"Only the best place!" She says and runs ahead of me, sliding and stopping while striking a pose, motioning to

~Sephora~

"How could I be so foolish?" I laugh as I head inside with her.

Immediately, I'm blown away by the variety of products of all types that they have. I've been in here so many times, and it still never ceases to amaze me.

We prance around the store, constantly picking up products just to see the pretty colors mostly, Mina calling me over to pick the foundation that matches my skin shade (since I'm usually naked all the time, I'm fairly tan!) and we looked for makeup to match the both of us, Mina decided that I shouldn't be alone on this and decided she would also try some of the makeup for herself.

"I'm thinking, since we already have pink outfits, and your skin is pink, why don't we go for a purple look?" I jump slightly and look at her and she smiles brightly at me. "Good idea!"

And from then on, we nyoomed around grabbing purple eyeshadow, eyeliner, lipstick, gLITTER. Of course, we weren't Yaomomo or Todoroki, so we had to go with hella cheap shit, but still- it was pretty high quality.

We walked out of the store with our arms full of products and we probably wouldn't even use most of it, but we had fun. We skipped around to stores for wigs, teeth molds, lenses... we actually found most of this stuff at a Halloween store. And finally, after we finished all of the shopping, we trudged into the food court, our feet aching and heavy as we lugged the bags in our arms to a two-person table. We set thrm down on top of the table, and collapsed into the two chairs beside it.

"Legs... hurt... palms... sweaty..."

"Knees...weak.."

"arms heavy..."

"mOM'S spAGHETTI"

"I'm in so much pain..."

"Same."

We nearly laugh our asses off and roll off our chairs.

"Let's hope this is all worth it so I can see your beautiful face~" Mina said coyly and winked at me, I just let out a little "pfft" and blew her a kiss.

"Yeah yeah... while we're here, I'm a little thirsty, want me to get us something to drink?" I smiled at her, she nodded.

"Yeah... thanks babe... can I get a milkshake?" She sat up straighter (gayer) and smiled brightly like a child at me.

"Of course! Want to share one?"

"You know me too well!"

"Alright, I'll get us a strawberry, be back in a bit!" I waved bye to her and jogged over to an ice cream kiosk, while jogging over, I could've sworn I saw Aoyama and Iida... eh, probably just my imagination.

After waiting in line for a little over 5 minutes, I finally get up to the cashier.

"Good afternoon mam, what can I get you?" The boy, probably around my age, at the cash register smiles at me. I wave politely to him and look up at the menu.

"I'll get an extra large strawberry milkshake with whipped cream, a cherry and rainbow sprinkles please!" I look back to him and he nods, heading back into the kiosk. Much quicker than I thought, he comes back out with the prettiest milkshake ever. I never expected a mall to have such top quality products! The whipped cream was perfect and tall, the heart shaped cherry rest on top, perfectly centered and the rainbow sprinkles were all spread around perfectly. Not to mention the pigment of pink the smoothie was was brighter than my future! Around the edges of the tall cup were cut up strawberries decorated into one big flower, and an actual edible flower rested at the bottom of the whipped cream mound. The whole thing looked so unreal! Like it came straight from an anime!

"Wow! Thank you so much!" I pay a little over the limit, but let him keep the change and drop a dollar into the tip jar and grab two straws for Mina and myself. Right as I'm about to walk away, however, he calls out to me.

"H-Hey um, wait! Would you maybe wanna... go out sometime..?" He blushes but continued looking at me. I smile sympathetically towards him even though he can't see it and say back to him.

"Sorry, but I have a girlfriend! That's really sweet though! I hope you find someone!" I wave goodbye to him and walk away from the kiosk and his dumbstruck self.

Walking back to the table, I see Mina's passed out, probably tired from walking around everywhere. I smile at her and carefully move our bags, then setting down the milkshake.

"Babe! Wake up!" I yell excitedly to her and she jolts up.

"Hagakure you're-! H o l y S H I T!" She starts but then sees the milkshake in front of her, clearly as awestruck as I was when I first saw it.

"This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!" She gushes, getting up and looking around the milkshake. I giggle at her childishness.

"Well, we might want to start drinking before the whipped cream collapses." I say joyfully and put a straw in my mouth. Mina does the same. We begin to drink peacefully, before Mina gets a smug look on her face and looks over to me.

"Race to see who drinks the most?" She says and immediately I start drinking as much as fast as I can.

"Hey no fair! My straw was out of my mouth!" She says and immediately puts it back in, drinking the shake like her life depended on it. I laugh at her, already feeling a brain freeze come up. And it's a b a d one. But still, I'm determined to win!

...at least that's what I thought before I was hit with a wave of pain and cold in my brain, I wince a little, but keep on drinking. The pain only gets worse... oh dear.

*chuckles* I'm in danger
-----------------------------------------------------

Tsu's POV

"hey Ochako, you know how we're going to do matching outfits? Kero."

"Yeah, is there something you had in mind for them?" she smiled sweetly at me, keeping our hands intertwined and us close while we walk through the store together.

"I was thinking, I'm pretty sure there's a Pop Cult around here somewhere, kero. Maybe we could get matching Hello Kitty and Keroppi outfits from there?" I smile back to her and she gains a small skip in her step, the look on her face brightening.

"Great idea! Maybe we should look around for it??" she turned her head and looked to see if she could find it.

"or we could look at the map of the mall, kero?" I smiled up at her and raised my eyebrow slightly, she looks back and smiles nervously.

"Yep! Or that! Haha.." she said and let go of my hand, stiffly walking over to the huge map and scanning over it quickly. Soon, the focused look on her face changed into a happy one and she stepped back over to me.

"lucky for us, there is a Pop Cult here! It's right down there, actually!" she said and pointed far down the hall to our right while on her toes.

"Well what are we waiting for?" I said and grabbed her hand again, immediately rushing down the hallway and pushing my way past large crowds of people. Ochako tried her best to keep up, jogging just slightly behind me.

Walking into the Pop Cult, we look around immediately for the Hello Kitty section, Ochako got a little distracted by all of their Rilakkuma and Gudetama merch but I was able to pull her away.

"Keep your eyes open for- oh." I start before looking up into the section. Right in front of us was a matching set of a white sweater with Hello Kitty's face on it and a light green Keroppi right next to it.

"...just our luck I guess?"

"yep." We laugh together and grab the sweaters, folding them over our arms.

"oh my All Might this sweater is expensive." Ochako's soul leaves her body, I look over and see it's about ¥2500 ($23)

"that isn't too expensive for me, I can buy it for you, Kero."

"it's alright.. It's just that I only brought ¥5600 ($50)" She says sweetly as she sets her sweater on the counter along with mine. We pay together.

We stroll around the mall a bit longer to find the least expensive stuff for our outfits. To complete our looks, we got 2 pairs of knee-high socks, button up shirts to go under the sweaters, skirts and ties. Her socks were white with light pink stripes at the top and mine where the same but black with green stripes. Her button up, tie and skirt were all white as well with mine being black.

"Okay now that we're done-"

"Actually Tsu, I got you something while you weren't looking.." she interrupts me and pulls something from her Pop Cult bag. It was a little lotus comb/clip to put in your hair. It was almost an exact replica to what Mulan wore.

"I bought it while you weren't looking back in Pop Culture while I was distracted... actually it's why I wanted to buy some of the cheaper stuff, so I made sure I could still get it for you." She smiles nervously again, holding it out to me and looking just slightly down.

"Ochako.. it's adorable! Thank you, Kero!" I smile brightly to her and grab it, taking out a hair tie and tying my hair into a bun.

"Really? You like it? I thought it would be a little cheesy!" She laughs, her face flushed with a bright pink blush.

"I think it's really cute, kero." I say while putting the comb clip in the bun.

"How do I look?"

"Beautiful, as always." She says nonchalantly and kisses my cheek, now causing me to blush.

"Aw.. hush." I rub my cheeks. "I was going to ask if you wanted anything to eat or drink, kero?"

"Mochi!" She says immediately.

"Alright, alright." We laugh together and head into the food court, we look for a table first to set our stuff down at, but right before we're about to set down our bags, we're called by someone.

"Hey! Tsu! Uraraka!" We look over and see Mina frantically waving her arms in the air at us, from the corner of my eye, I also see a pair of floating clothes with Mina.

"Oh, Mina! Hagakure! Hi!!" Uraraka waves back to her.

"We should sit with them, kero."

"My thoughts exactly." Ochako says before walking quickly up to their table, me following behind. Before I get there, she sets up a chair for me and then herself. I let out a quick "thank you." As I sit down and placed our bags between us.

"Hey guys! how's the shopping going?" Hagakure looks over at the two of us with an excited tone of voice.

"We actually just finished, we were going to stop by here to grab a bite to eat until you two called us over." She laughed.

"Well, now that you guys are here, you won't believe what I saw!" Hagakure says once more.

"Ooooh, spill the tea!"

I was never really one for drama, so I decided I'll just go get Ochako and I some food. I tell her before I get up and go to a classical looking mochi kiosk.

Once getting through the short line, I order a regular sized bowl of mochi ice cream for her and a warm jasmine tea for myself. After thanking and paying the cashier, I make my way back to the table, and on my way, I catch a glimpse of... Tokoyami and Shouji...on a date? I know I said I'm not one for drama, but some tea is worth spilling.

Once I work my way through back to the table, I set down Ochako's ice cream and sit back down next to her.

"Oh, Tsu! Just in time! Hagakure and Mina were just telling me that Hagakure saw Iida and Aoyama on a date!"

"Those two are unexpected, but really cute together!"

"Especially since Aoyama has been volunteering to take care of him so much... it's really sweet!"

"Aoyama is basically my best friend, I'll make fun of him for it later." The three of them laughed. Wow, this whole table really has turned into a sort of... tea convention.

"Well, those two are really cute together and all, but I think I just saw Tokoyami and Shouji on a date together, kero."

"Ugh, oh my godddd, those two need to get together already! It's so obvious that they like eachother it's honestly painfullll!!!" Mina slammed her forehead on the table.

"Who knows, maybe they actually got together today and that's why they're on the date, kero." I say and sip on my tea.

"Dang Tsu, we really need to discuss tea with you more."

"I just hope their sexual tension yeets itself out of existence already, kero."
-----------------------------------------------------

Shinsou's POV

"That suit makes you look gay."

"You look gay."

"I'm actually pan, you're gay."

"Aw fuck you're right. So I should go with this one?"

"Yep." Ojirou gives me a thumbs up and I walk back into the changing room.

Ojirou and I already picked out a couple of suits for ourselves and we were in the dressing room and trying them on. Ojirou already picked out his: A white, short-sleeved button up decorated in gold flowers and vines with black pants and suspenders and a gold rose hair clip to match my lavender rose. To be honest, when he first walked out wearing it, I had to physically keep myself from pinning him to a wall and making out with him right then and there, but I decided against it with better judgement.

But now, I finally picked out my own suit after like... 5 tries. The one I picked out had a purple button up with black pants and a black vest that was decorated in cartoonish white flowers. It was actually pretty cute, and I think I caught Ojirou blushing while I tried it on..

But, with my suit finally paid for, and about an hour and a half left to spare, we can fuck around in the mall now! Woo!

"We have a lot of extra time left... I thought we took way longer than that." Ojirou laughs as we walk around the mall, just looking to see if there's any interesting stores to look into.

"Yeah. Especially with how many times you forced me to pick a different suit." I say condescendingly.

"Shinsou Hitoshi, in no universe will purple ever be good to match with orange and white."

"You wore orange and white with green. Green, Ojirou! The color that goes with literally nothing!"

"It was a poor choice but I pulled it off!"

"Barely!" We continued arguing until we came to an agreement of "Ojirou has the worst fashion sense." ...He may not have agreed but it's the truth. Still love him though, no homo.

"Just... up your shut." He glared at me and said way too seriously.

"It's your fault for being so cute but having awful clothes." I say and we stay silent for a moment... then a bit longer... and a couple more seconds... it takes me a full five minutes to realize what I said.

"Uhhhhh, you didn't hear that." My face heats up immediately and I walk faster ahead of him.

"Shinsouuuu, you think I'm cuteee?~" he comes up from behind me and teases, hanging off of my shoulders.

"No shut up you're ugly." I struggle to hold back a smile while he just laughs and catches up to me.

"Uh huh, sure, well you don't look too bad yourself."

"Yeah, says the literal angel."

"Shut, you flatter me too much." He blushes but just lightly. I smile smugly at him.

"You started it, you started teasing me first you know."

"Because you called me cute, and you meant it."

"Uh huh...Why are we even fighting?"

"Because you like me."

"nO I DON'T. JUst shUt aND KEEP WALKING." I nearly screeched, making him laugh uncontrollably.

"Jeez, I'm sorry! I didn't know you were so sensitive about that!" He smiled at me and laughed. I poured and stayed silent, not even caring that I was probably redder than a tomato at this point. If I looked at him and his... cute fuckin face for any longer my uwus will start to fall out everywhere.

"Hey, I still owe you that date, remember?" He knudges me in the shoulder. Oh yeah, he did. Of course past me just had to sabotage future me like that.

"Yeah I remember, 'cause you were being lazy as hell." I smiled lightly down at him. He slapped me a little on the arm which just earned a laugh from the two of us.

"Shush, but where do you want to go?"

"uhhh... Surprise me."

"As you wish." he smiles softly at me and takes my hand. While he leads me to the food court, I try my best to not completely break down from this man's cuteness. I'm fighting back my blush as hard as I can already.

Along the way, our hands Intertwine and we walk shoulder to shoulder once more, I guess we kinda look like a couple now.... Oh well. Might as well go along with it. Some people gives us weird looks as we make our way into what looks like a small café together and wait in line, hands still holding.

After standing in a slightly-awkward silence, Ojirou speaks up.

"I think I'll great a blueberry cheesecake and green tea. How about you?" he says politely and looks over to me. Panicking internally, I look up to the menu and order the first thing I see.

"uh- I'll get a slice of lemon meringue pie and...  A strawberry smoothie." I say only slightly nervous and he nods, walking up to the counter once it's our turn; the line was short so it didn't take too long.

Our food was served almost immediately to our delight, and we sat together at a 2 seating table in a corner of the cafe. We set our bags down beside us and sat across from eachother while we ate, which completely consisted of me desperately trying to avoid eye contact, or even looking at him. I kept my eyes on the table or on the floor because of pure embarrassment.

"Something wrong?" He looks at me, less worried, more curious.

"Uh... not really, mostly just me being dumb.." My whole face and body heat up while I stare even more intently at the ground and take a bite of my pie.

"How are you being dumb this time?" He says smugly and sips his tea.

"Okay, you know what-" I look directly up at him and hold back a smile, he already started having a giggle fit while his tail wagged almost violently behind him. While staring at him, I quickly realize we were both blushing... a lot.

"I got you to look at me at least." He smiles and takes a final bite of his pie.

"...you sneaky bastard. I hate you." I bite the inside of my lip and struggle to hold the same smile.

"Yeah yeah, I love you too. Now finish your pie, Lemon Boy so we can hang out." He says and sets his empty plate and cup to the side.

"What are we even gonna do after this?" I say and drink the rest of my smoothie quickly. He shrugs.

"What do people normally do on dates?" He rests his head in the palm of his hand. Trying to be all smug and charming again.

"They hold hands, kiss, if they're lucky enough, they fuck after the date. Why do you ask? You wanna fuck me or something?" I wink at him and he glares at me. If looks could kill, I'd be a pile of dust right now. I stick out my tongue at him and he takes the rest of my smoothie and plate and throws it in the trash.

"I was still drinking that!"

"You has like 2 sips left. Now let's go."

"You're really trying to speed this up, you sure you don't wan-"

"SHut aND GET MOVING." He sweeps me off my feet, literally carrying me with his tail as he picks up the bags and walks out, from what I can see from all the way back here, his face was so red you could barely see his blush.

"Jokes on you I get a free ride." I hold my hands behind my head and cross my legs in front of me. I look around, getting a nice view of the mall from up here. But, while scanning a crowd, I notice a familiar face.

...is that.... the homophobic girl that had a crush on me?

Wait she still thinks I'm dating Todoroki.

We lock eyes

"OjiROU RUN-"
-----------------------------------------------------

Kaminari's POV

Hanta and I have properly made up, and it feels amazing.... he listened to me explain myself back on the train, I gave him time to think about it, and he forgave me completely... I don't deserve someone as amazing as him, honestly.

Well, now we were holding hands, completely intertwined, and skipping down the mall like complete madmen and screaming about skirts and dresses.

"Let's go to Hot Topiccccc!" I skip ahead of him but I'm yanked back.

"Bro.. that's too edgy for us. You hang with The edgelords too much." Sero laughs and pulls me, putting our shoulders together.

"Put... they have Pikachu stuff. And gamer stuff." I lay my head on his shoulder and flash him puppy eyes. He looks away from me and I can see the internal struggle written on his face.

"...fiiiiine." He groans and I shoot up happily, immediately running ahead and pulling him along behind me with a smile on my face.

The both of us stopped skipping and skidded to a halt in front of Hot Topic, then walking in with me bouncing on the balls of my feet and him-probably looking disappointed-right beside me.

Despite him being reluctant to come at first, we were both having way too much fun just looking for clothes. Every outfit we picked out had to be gamer themed... and also perfect too, I guess.

In the end, I found a really cute Pikachu dress to wear with the face printed on the chest, and the tail printed on the back that goes just a little above my knees. Sero picked out a plain black button up with rainbow buttons and a small rainbow over his chest on the left. He got a bouncy rainbow skirt to match that goes to his mid thigh.

"Bro, we're gonna be so goddamn pretty."

"Yeah, the girls have nothing on us."

"They've got nothing on these legs."

"Yell heah."

We walked out of the store with a strut, struggling to hold in laughter.

"Hey bro, I'm kinda bored." I leaned up against Hanta.

"We literally just finished shopping and you're already bored?" He slinks an arm around my shoulders.

"Yes!! Let's do something fun!" I smile up at him and he rolls his eyes.

"I think there's an arcade around here we could check out. It has food too."

"Sounds fun. But is the food unhealthy?"

"Uh.... most of it is, yeah."

"Perfect! Where is it?"

"I'm pretty sure it's right down th- aHH!"

" N Y O O M "

And just like that, faster than lightning, we were zooming down the mall towards the arcade. It was actually really easy to spot, the front being covered in neon lights and having glass walls that revealed.... a shit ton of games.

While Sero was still a wheezing mess behind me, I stared at the inside of the arcade in awe. A cowboy might cry... it was so beautiful.

"Babe... thank you so much for telling me of this heaven." I walk slowly inside, my knees getting weak from the sheer god-like power this place radiated.

"Sure thing babe." He comes up from behind and gives me a light kiss on the cheek, I smile sweetly at him.

"You enjoy yourself, I'll get us food, just don't do anything too illegal." He winks at me before walking off to the food counter.

I wave bye at him and then look around with a mischievous look on my face. Which game do I want to destroy first....

After making my decision, I run over to the coin-conversion machine and stick in about half of the money I have left and take a handful of coins. Now that that's taken care of....

First, I run over to an iconic (👌👌👌) game of Galaga, honestly, the game got a little heated even though I was playing by myself. Those evil spaceship bugs man... they really get to you. They were shit-talking my man, no one shit talks my man. I had to beat all of them, for the honor of Hanta.

But after I got bored of the game, I run to Donkey Kong, then Street Fighter, then Mortal Kombat.... and then as I pass by a 2-person shooter game.... and I realize how lonely I am. Where is Han-?

S C R E A M

I'm poked very aggressively on my back, and literally collapse on the floor with a "manly" shriek.

"Oh my god- dude! I didn't know you would fucking die!" Sero turns into a wheezing mess, almost falling over and collapsing on top of me but he had to force himself to stay standing so he wouldn't drop the food.

"I-I got us some cheese fries and drinks..." he's interrupts himself with a wheeze. "And a salad.. but the salad is mostly for me." He smiled at me and wiped a tear from his eyes. I glare up at him and stand slowly, then punching him once I stand up fully.

"That wasn't funny you meanie butt." I punch him on the shoulder and he just chuckles and shrugs. Leading me over to a nearby table where he set down our bags.

"Just hurry and eat. I saw you eyeing the shooter and I want to play with you when we're done." He says and eats a fry. I light up and start eating the fries quickly. Is this what true love is? I think so.

As I scarf down the fries in the most ugly way possible, Han peacefully eats his salad and somehow still manages to finish before me. He throws away his tray and says he'll meet me at the machine. I finish not too longer after him and race to the machine with our drinks in hand.

"Geez Denki, it wasn't a race." He laughs and hands me one of the guns.

"Yes it was, you just didn't know it." I wink at him and he rolls his eyes as he inserts two coins for us to play, and so the game begins.

"Find the bad guy, push him aside..." I start to mutter, scanning the screen for any enemies.

"And move on forward with your friend at your side...." Sero smiles and says after me, shooting a single enemy at his side of the screen.

"It's a two player game, so when they make an attack!" I shoot and kill more, getting us an upgrade.

"You know you got a brother, gonna have your back!" We sing together and kill even more. Little by little, we get by in the game with minor injuries, and manage to take down a couple hoards.

"Hanta! Your left! Your left!"

"In front of you! Wait- the right! DENKI THE RIGHT-"

"IN THE MIDDLE!"

"aaaAAAAA"

"AAAAAAAAAAAA"

"AAAAAAAAAAA"

"Whelp. Fuck."

"Yep. We dead."

"We tried." I shrug and we set our gun back into the machine, picking up our sodas from off the monitor and we take a sip.

"My throat hurts from all the yelling..."

"Same, don't worry." Sero grimaces and takes a long drink. We pick up each of our bags and walk out of the arcade.

"We should head back to Edgeshot and Kamui... they're like moms right? They'll have cough drops?" Sero says uncertainly.

"We can only hope.." I cough.

"Yeah, But- hAHAuhaalaBsiwnaAAA-" Sero gasps/screams and runs to a shopping window ahead from us.

"DENKI! DENKIDENKIDENKI! LOOOK!" He yells at me with the brightest look on his face while pointing at the glass. I run quickly next to him, and see... the reincarnation of god himself. My eyes widen and I press my face up against the glass. Is this a dream? These are too angelic to actually exist in our mortal realm.

"Are those...."

"Yes."

"Our prayers...."

"They've been answered."

"We need them."
