UA's Sports Festival

"Are you ready for tomorrow?"

Sitting on the sofa with a controller in his hand, Aiden was talking to Rumi while playing against her in a racing game.

"You know you can't distract me right?" He said and drifted around a curve.

"I'm genuinely interested." She said trying to sound innocent.

"Sure~" He smiled. "I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't curious about the whole thing."

"So you are excited!" She said with a bit to much excitement in her voice.

"I didn't say that, I'm just curious." He denied.

"Ha! That's basically your way of saying you're excited." She grinned.

"If you want to believe that then I won't burst that bubble of yours."

"Hehe, no need to act so tough when its just the two of us." She teased.

"What makes you think that its just the two of us? For all you know I could have seduced a couple of naive Japanese girls into my house and am currently taking a break after satisfying all 10 of them."

"Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! You seduce? Ahahahahahahahaha, oh my god my stomach's hurting! Ahahahahahahahahahahaha, 10 of them he says! Ahahahahahahahahaha OH GOD I'M ACTUALLY IN PAIN FROM LAUGHING SO MUCH!"

Frowning at her reaction, Aiden felt his pride as man being looked down upon.

"It wasn't that funny." He frowned.

Wiping the tears away from her eyes, Rumi struggled to control her self as the thought of Aiden trying to seduce anyone was to much for her to handle.

"Sorry *hic* its just so funny." She hiccuped.

"You don't believe I could do it?!"

Finally managing to calm down, she answered him as seriously as she could despite the situation.

"Sorry Aiden, you're just to anti-social to know how to seduce others."

"I'll have you know that I've made friends at UA." He defended.

"Seriously! Wow congrats brat! You're finally doing something that I did when I was three. Really moving up in the world aren't ya." She teased.

"Fuck you Rumi." He cursed hearing the playful tone in her voice.

"I know you'd like to." She grinned.

"Urgh!" He groaned.

"C'mon don't be so down. As a hero I have to follow the law. But I'll wait until you're of legal age."

"What makes you think I want you?!" He snapped.

"Oh please." She rolled her eyes. "As if any other girl would want an anti-social guy like you. I'm the best you can get."

"Wow, you really have no faith in me." He said somewhat surprised. "Are you coming to the festival?"

"The one at UA?"

"No the one on the moon. Of course the one at UA!"

"Oh, nah. Hero work keeps me busy."

"You work on your own schedule. How are you busy?" He felt something was off.

"Well... Fine, I just can't be bothered to go all the way to UA. Its sooo farrrr."

"Seriously?! You're gonna miss my first school event because you want to relax at home!"

"Yup! I'll be watching on the tv, see ya." She left the chat before he could get another word in.

'This bitch!'

"Hey Aiden! Hey Mina!" Kendo ran towards the duo. "Good morning!"

"Morning." The pair greeted. The two of them had just been talking about the progress Mina had made during the past two weeks, and were just about to go over her weaknesses before they were interrupted.

"Are you guys as excited as I am! I can't wait to show those pro heroes what I'm made of!" She did some shadow boxing to show how excited she was.

'Weird girl.'

"Oh yeah Aiden?" She suddenly called his name.

"What?" He groaned feeling that something bothersome was about to happen.

"You're American right?"

"I was last time I checked."

"Then can you do me a favor and meet someone from class 1-B?" Kendo asked with sparkles in her eyes.

'The fuck!'

Thinking back on the last time he met someone from class 1-B (TetsuTetsu), he found himself not in a hurry to meet the rest.

"I can't, I'm busy today." He denied.

"No worries, how about tomorrow?"

"Busy."

"The day after?"

"Busier."

"The day after that?"

"Busiest time of the week."

"Hmm... That's problematic." Kendo muttered to herself.

Seeing the conversation between the two, Mina wanted to step in and tell her that Aiden was doing this on purpose, but after seeing the glare he was giving her, she decided to back off.

"What about this weekend? We can make a day of it! You invite some friends from class 1-A and I'll invite some from 1-B and we can all get to know each other better!"

Just as he was about to decline, Mina suddenly stepped in and agreed for him.

"This weekend sounds perfect! As the class representative it is Aiden's duty to ensure that the rest of the students are getting a proper amount of social interaction from others besides their classmates." Mina turned to Aiden and smiled.

'You conniving little bitch.'

"GREAT! I'll make sure to invite my friends!" Kendo smiled.

Walking ahead with Mina, the two left a blank faced Aiden behind.

After meeting up with Aizawa, the student changed into their training uniforms and made their way to their designated waiting room.

"ARGH! HOW LONG UNTIL WE CAN START!!" Bakugo screamed with impatience. The class had been waiting for some time now and were starting to get bored.

"Tch, why do wild dogs always bark so loud." Aiden said loud enough for Bakugo to hear.

'Here we go again.' The class thought.

"WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU SHITTY PURPLE EYED FREAK!!"

Sitting back in his chair, Aiden closed his eyes and ignored the raging Bakugo.

"Midoriya." Todoroki suddenly called out to him much to the surprise of everyone else. From what they understood, this was the first time the two were actually speaking to one another. Even the loud mouthed Bakugo stopped shouting for a minute.

"On an objective basis I think I'm above you in terms of physical strength." Todoroki started.

Aiden who was resting his eyes mentally nodded to himself as he agreed that Todoroki's base stats were probably better than Deku's without his quirk.

"I don't know why, but for some reason All Might's got an eye on you right."

"I um... well."

"I'm not going to pry into your business but, I'm going to beat you." Todoroki said resolutely.

The rest of the class watched with interest and even had Denki say "Oho, a declaration of war from the strongest kid in class!!?" Hearing him refer to Todoroki as the strongest in the class earned him the ire of Bakugo.

"Todoroki-san, I don't know what you expect from me after telling me all of this. You're definitely stronger than I am, I think the vast majority of people aren't your match. But even so!" A look of determination suddenly flashed in his eyes. "Even if you're stronger than me, Everyone including those from the other departments are aiming for the top with all their might! So not even I can allow myself to lag behind the rest!"

'What shit is this wimp spouting?'

"So I'll also give this sports festival my all!" Deku said proudly.

"Oho!"

"Someone's fired up!"

"You go Midoriya-san!"
