1: Deku

After getting ready for the day, I grabbed my backpack, and headed to class. It was a nice, breezy Monday morning, and UA couldn't have shined brighter under the morning sun. I made my way through the hallways, and then stepped into class, nearly bumping into Bakugo. "K-kacchan! I'm sorry, I didn't mean-here, let me just-" I rambled, and was about to take my seat, when he gripped my shoulder. Tightly. I looked back at him, nervous. But he smiled instead. "Its fine, De-Izuku, don't worry about it." He let go of my shoulder, but I didn't go back to my seat, instead staying there, and raising an eyebrow at the floor as if it had all the answers to my questions. Ever since they brought me back, he's been acting very...unlike him...most of the time. He's been trying to be nicer. It kind of freaks me out honestly. Maybe I should check on him just in case? Or should I leave it alone, maybe? Once the others came in, I sat down in my seat, trying to focus on Aizawa's lesson. But my thoughts kept circling back to Bakugo. Why would he tell me it's fine when he usually yells at me? Why's he trying to be nicer this time around? Maybe I should start worrying about it-or, actually, keep worrying about it.

Thankfully, we were cleared to go back to our dorms, and I rushed without trying to be obvious about it, not wanting to bump into anyone. Luckily, I made it to my room, and sat my bag down, then changed into a plain, blue shirt, and some gray shorts. I fell back in my bed, and rested my arm over my forehead, staring at the ceiling. I wish I could tell him. I'm not scared of getting rejected. I'm not scared of what he feels. I'm scared of ruining our friendship. I feel like he's trying so hard to change into a new person, to try and better himself for something. I pulled out my phone, and looked at the group chat first, finding nothing new. Then, I went to Todoroki's number, wondering if I should tell someone about my feelings. And who. The girls would totally freak and convince me to tell Bakugo right away. Kaminari...probably would either tell me to ask Bakugo out, or have no clue what to say. Kirishima would be very supportive and tell me to talk to Bakugo about it when I was ready. Mineta most likely wouldn't be any help. Koda is so shy, I doubt he'd even try to offer advice. Sero would be another version of Kirishima. Fumukage...would offer some good advice. But Todoroki...he seemed like the most logical answer. He was an awesome friend. He always gave great advice to those who needed it. He'd be very supportive. I sighed, and texted him, explaining that I have feelings for Bakugo. He read the text, and started typing. Hold on-let me call.
