Chapter Text
Kyoka comes down to absolute chaos. Midoriya is running from Mina, Tooru, and Kaminari. “Gimme those curls!” Mina yells, lunging for Midoriya who yelps, getting taken down. “Noooo Toshi help! No- not the wire comb!” Shinso just laughs at Midoriya from where he’s leaning against the kitchen counter. “Minaaaaa! Please, mercy!” “Nope! You haven’t done hair care today. It’ll be worse tomorrow if you don't.” Mina chirps as she drags the large, heavy boy across the common room floor easily. Midoriya just whines and pleads for mercy. Ochako helps Mina get Midoriya on the couch, then holds him down by sitting in his lap. Kyoka raises an eyebrow, that’s hardly appropriate. She wanders over to Shinso and asks “Aren't you upset by that? She's had a thing for him for two years.” Shinso gives her an odd look. “No? I trust my partner. Besides, she's also taken and entirely uninterested in him now.” “Okay, but like- he's actively attempting escape from her. She's holding him down, aren't you upset about that? Don't you want to go save him?”
“Nope. All of his protests are playful. Do you really think she could keep him down if he really didn't want it? He also doesn’t need me to rescue him, he could take down every single person in this room without breaking a sweat. He cannot be forced to do anything he doesn't want to do.” “Yii!!! Kami- Mina! Did you take that out of the freezer?!?” Midoriya yelps, Mina and Ochako laugh at him. “Maybe~ That's what you get for not doing this yourself. Now, be a good boy and hold still Zuzu.” Midoriya pouts but holds still, and yeah. Now Jiro can see that it's an act. Of course it is. And of course he's making her look like an idiot again. She winces at the pang of pain that runs up her leg, not noticing the knowing look Bakugo aims at her. She huffs and heads to the kitchen, grabbing some toaster pastries, she can cheat on her diet for one day. She studiously ignores how Kaminari is fixing Momo's eyeliner, squashing the jealousy and heading for the classroom.
Halfway there, she's bowled over by her laughing classmates, Midoriya yelling, “No quirks! If I see quirks, you lose!” He physically picks her up and sets her on her feet with a sunny grin and a laughed apology. She just glares and shoves his hands off her. The dick doesn't react, just laughs and runs after the rest of the class, apparently they decided to race today. They all paused to wait for him though, and for some reason, that ticks her off more. She walks into the classroom to see Midoriya handing out lollipops, they get tucked into backpacks and pockets and the entire class is in their seats before the bell tolls. She finds a lollipop on her desk and seethes as she throws it in the trash. It's probably been tampered with. Like
hell she's trusting anything that came from him.
Her anger stays as he answers every question correctly, volunteers to answer questions, and is just generally a kiss up all day. Finally lunch comes and… her card declines. Her parents forgot to refill it. He reaches around and pays for her, “Nobody goes hungry on my watch!” She rolls her eyes and shoves past, how dare he? She's forced to watch him pay for a few other of their classmates' lunches, including Uraraka who he also gives his dessert to. “I don't like mochi, so this way it won't go to waste.” He says cheerily. She hates him. She growls as she angrily eats, as much as she hates it, she needs the energy. He tutors a few of their classmates, as well as a few of class B as he eats, effortlessly multi-tasking. She listens, and hates how he actually makes sense. He's a damn good tutor and all it does is piss her off more. Seriously, he has to be bad at something!! She just has to find it. What is his weakness? …Wait. Oh yeah, he has a food allergy. What was it again? Kyoka rummages through her memories, looking for it. Ah, now she remembers. Strawberries. He's allergic to strawberries, both natural and artificial. She fingers the gum in her pocket with a grin, now she just has to find her patsy. She doubts he'll consume anything from her, so… Hmm. He'll do. She checks the ingredients first, yes. They have it. She smiles, making herself look nice as she hands over two pieces of the gum to Tetsu, casually mentioning that it's Midoriya's favorite too. Then she sits at her table and watches as Tetsu gives Midoriya a piece of the gum. Midoriya beams as he pops it in his mouth. Good, now chew. He does and his face drops, he says something and Tetsu pales. Midoriya starts swelling and when he tries to stand, he collapses, clearing the table. All the plates end up on him, coating him in food. ..Nobody laughs. WHY ISN'T ANYONE LAUGHING AT HIM?!? He has food all over him! Shinso is scrambling through his pockets, wait… Did.. did Midoriya stop breathing? No- that wasn't supposed to happen- Aizawa comes running into the cafeteria, something in his hand. He- fucking stabs Midoriya?!? With the thing in his hand?!? Midoriya takes a deep breath, coughing, the swelling starts to lessen. Tetsu is panicking, she can hear the frantic apologies from here. Then Aizawa says something, and Tetsu points at her. She flinches as Aizawa's angry gaze is turned on her. She tries to run, he catches her. “No you don't. Principal's office. Now.” Aizawa snarls, angrier than she's seen him in a while. “Let me go- I didn’t do anything wrong!” “Then why did you try to run? If you're innocent then there's nothing to fear.” Aizawa replies, dragging her through the halls. No- the cafeteria doors close, and the last thing she sees is Bakugo helping Shinso clean Midoriya up. It's. Not. Fair.
