Description: Uraraka decides to finally confess her feelings to Deku, encouraged by the others that he feels the same way, but when she finally approaches him, things turn out to be a little different than she thought they were.
---
When Uraraka first heard rumours flying around about Todoroki and Midoriya that morning, her brain instantly went into panic mode. What was going on? Had they fought again? But they were getting along so well! Or so she thought they had. Last time she’d asked Deku to hang out with her, he told her he was busy studying with Todoroki for finals (yep just studying- c;), and when she asked if she could join, he’d said that he was going to sleep right after, because he was so worn out.
And that had only been last weekend.
It seemed that no matter when she called, Midoriya was always busy these days, training hard, studying, hanging out with Todoroki… It was like they were the best of friends all of a sudden, and that left no room for her. She knew it was silly to be jealous of someone because of that, especially when it was just her crush’s friend, but she couldn’t help but feel a pang of pain in her chest when she realised how distanced they’d become lately.
“What do you think, Uraraka-san?” Momo asked, breaking the unusually forlorn-looking girl out of her trance.
“Huh?”
“It’s cute!” Ashido smiled as she clasped her hands together, jumping up to examine the dress Momo had tried on closer. “Let’s all get matching ones!”
“What’s wrong, Uraraka?” Momo asked, her expression concerned as she took in the once energetic girl’s tired-looking face.
“Ah… It’s nothing! I don’t mind getting matching outfits…”
Just as she thought she had gotten away with it, Tsuyu leaned in close to her face, narrowing her large, dome-like eyes.
“You were thinking of Midoriya-san again, weren’t you, ribbit?” She asked, scratching her chin with a single finger.
“Ah, you need to tell him, Uraraka!” Ashido exclaimed as she hugged her friend. “You’ve been acting down all day, and it’s really upsetting us to see you like this.”
“Yeah, you really haven’t been yourself lately,” Jiro chipped in, also concerned for her friend.
Uraraka let out a sigh.
“You’re right, you’re right, I guess I’ll have to do it sometime soon,” she gave in, swinging her legs as she looked down at them.
“Not just soon. As soon as we get back.”
“What?!” Uraraka looked up at her friend in shock.
“Yeah, it’s better to tell him sooner rather than never!” Momo chimed in, sitting beside Uraraka as she patted her shoulder comfortingly. “We’ll be there for you and we’ll help you practise what to say before then, okay?”
The girl’s cheeks reddened as she played out the scene in her head: she and Midoriya, all alone in a classroom after school had finished, the golden sunset pouring through the large glass windows and giving the room a magical glow, Ashido and the other girls’ peering faces pressed against the glass of the abandoned classroom’s door as they offered their best support to their friend… Well, perhaps that part wasn’t so romantic, but the very thought of confessing to Midoriya had her heart leaping in her chest.
“You’ll do it then, won’t you?” A voice came from in front of her, but judging by the floating skirt and top, she could tell it was Hagakure.
“I will,” Uraraka confirmed, her face growing determined as she decided she settled this inner conflict once and for all. Even if he didn’t return her feelings, she just couldn’t keep it to herself anymore.
“I’ll tell him how I feel, even if he doesn’t feel the same way!” She yelled suddenly, pumping her fist into the air as if miraculously energised.
“Yeah!”
“Go get him, girl!” Ashido cheered, the others jumping up as they too cheered for her.
“He obviously feels the same way!” Momo exclaimed, the other girls nodding vigorously at the statement. “I can tell by the way he looks at you.”
“That too, he’s always complimenting Uraraka-san, isn’t he?”
“Yeah! And he thinks about you even when you’re not there. He always asks us where you are when you’re later to class than usual.”
“R-really…?” Uraraka asked, her eyes filling with hope as the girls around her made their own observations.
“Of course! He definitely likes you back, I’m sure of it!”
Just then, a loud ringing sound caused the girls to break apart, turning to the phone placed on the stool beside them.
“Deku: Calling. Deku: Calling.”
The changing room was silent for a few seconds before there was complete uproar, the girls squealing and hugging Uraraka in excitement as they made a dash to grab her phone first.
Outside, one of the workers of the fitting room glanced back at the cubicle with wide eyes before sighing, wondering what on earth those teenage girls were doing.

“Sooo, what did he say?”
Uraraka smiled, rolling over on her bed as she held the phone to her ear.
“He said he wanted to meet up that weekend, so we did, and it was so much fun! We had milkshakes and went out shopping for a bit too, and he told me he was sorry for being so busy and that he wanted to make more time for me!”
The squeal emitting from the other end of the phone was loud enough to make Uraraka’s ear ring, but she couldn’t care less, completely away with the fairies as she dreamt about confessing to the boy of her dreams.
“Girl he’s totally into you! You’ve got to tell him tomorrow!”
“I will, I will, I’m just so nervous! Oh, he also mentioned that he wanted to tell me something because he could only trust me about it, but he’s going to say it when we get back!”
“You know what that means,” Ashido grinned.
Uraraka’s face erupted into a huge blush all over again, so much that she told Ashido she’d see her tomorrow and hung up, pressing her face into her pillow.
She couldn’t wait to tell him.
And now, here she was, standing frozen in the hallway, barely even paying attention to where she was going as she listened in on the rumours going around about Midoriya.
“Did you hear?”
“Oh my god, yeah, that Midoriya guy-”
“The one with that destructive quirk? Him?”
“Yeah, and the fire and ice guy.”
“Oh. My. God.”
Not wanting to hear anymore, Uraraka rushed to the classroom, hoping to find relief and see that they hadn’t fought, that it was something else, and so it was, but it wasn’t what she was expecting.
At all.
Reaching the classroom door, all the boys were huddled around Midoriya’s table, asking him over and over if it was true.
If what was true? Uraraka frowned, moving closer as Iida-kun tried to break up the crowd, moving his hands around in the air in their usual chopping motion.
“Ah- that is- um-” Midoriya trailed off, his face the colour of a tomato as the boys confronted him about it.
“I mean there’s nothing wrong with it, we’re just not sure if it’s for real or if people are making it up!” Kaminari said, leaning his elbows on the freckled boy’s desk, who was looking more and more panicked by the minute.
“It’s true.”
A stoic voice came from behind them all, and they turned, only to be faced by the man himself. Todoroki Shoto.
“E-eh-” Midoriya was cut off as Todoroki slung an arm around the boy, standing beside him firmly with an unwavering expression.
“It’s true, so you can all go back to your seats now,” he confirmed, and Kirishima whooped energetically as he held his hand out in the air for a high five.
“Good for you, Todoroki, eh?” He grinned, though he got no response, and he dejectedly put his hand down.
By now, Uraraka was extremely confused. What on earth was going on? Why were they declaring their friendship in the middle of class? And why were other classes talking about it? Was it that much of a big deal? Why on earth was Midoriya so flustered anyway?
And in the very next moment, all of her questions were answered in a heartbeat, as Todoroki lowered his face to Midoriya’s and pressed a firm kiss to his lips.
The whole class erupted into chaos, Kaminari sparking with electrical energy as he hopped around excitedly, loudly announcing that the two were kissing, whilst Bakugo yelled at them to stop being so disgusting, letting off small explosions with his hands. Some of their classmates turned away in embarassement, Iida-kun being one of them.
The whole while, Uraraka stood there in silence, watching with her eyes wide and mouth agape.
No. Way.
And suddenly, it all made sense to her.
Why Midoriya had been hanging out with Todoroki so much lately.
Why she couldn’t ever come over when they were together.
The secret Midoriya mentioned, that he promised he’d tell her after the holidays.
He was… Gay?!
Midoriya’s face had flushed even darker than it had before if that was possible, his eyes staring into Todoroki’s in shock before turning away, flustered.
“I told you not to do that in front of people,” he murmured, causing the male beside him to smirk.
“Is it bad that I want to show you off? If it makes you uncomfortable, I’ll stop,” he said, glancing up at Kirishima and sending him a glare, the commotion in the class halting at his icy stare.
“Ah, it’s just… Oh, Uraraka-san,” Midoriya looked up, noticing the girl that had been standing near his desk with a shocked expression.
“Ah well, this was the thing I was going to tell you about, remember? Really, it was a secret before Todoroki-san acted all strange in front of the school and people figured it out…” He rubbed his neck awkwardly, smiling at her.
“Right…” Uraraka responded, her brain still trying to process everything. “I’m supportive of your relationship.” She managed to say, giving him a thumbs up before returning to her seat in a dazed state.
“She must have been really surprised, huh?” Midoriya chuckled, Todoroki patting his head affectionately before returning to his seat as Mr Aizawa entered the class to begin his lesson.
Uraraka barely noticed though, facing forward in a trance for the rest of the day whilst the girls in the class helplessly exchanged looks with one another, completely defeated in the fact that their plan had backfired before it even began.
***
“It’s okay,” Uraraka reassured her friends, who all looked rather guilty for leading her on. “It’s not like I was deeply in love, or anything. In fact, I think we’re a lot better as friends. It might have been awkward for us if we suddenly became lovers.”
“That’s true,” Ashido sighed. “Man, I totally wasn’t expecting Midoriya to be gay, though.”
“Right? How unexpected,” Hagakure added. “Did you see how surprised I was when they kissed? I almost fell back!”
“Ah, well it’s sort of difficult to do that when all we could see was your uniform,” Jiro replied, still confused as to why her friend was so persistent in asking questions like that all the time when she was invisible.
“Huh? What are the guys all doing next to that door?” Momo frowned, turning the corner as she spotted Kaminari pressing his face against the transparent glass, some of the other boys crowded around the area too.
“It’s Todoroki-san and Midoriya-san,” Tsuyu stated, after she caught sight of the two in the abandoned classroom beside one another.
“Do you really have nothing else to do with your lives?” Jiro asked monotonously as she approached the crowd, though she stopped herself to take a look.
“Wow, the mood is perfect,” Sero commented with a grin. “Abandoned classroom, golden sunset shining through the window…”
Yup, that was the perfect setting, Uraraka thought, internally signing to herself.
“Perverted eyes watching them behind the door,” Mineta added to Sero’s list in what was too much of an excited voice, causing Tsuyu to slap his head with her tongue harshly.
“Ow!” He cried out, falling onto Kirishima, who was leaning on Sero’s shoulder, who was leaning on Kaminari’s shoulder, who was leaning against the door, causing it to creak open just the slightest, but it was enough for the two to pull away from each other just as they were about to kiss, Todoroki’s heterochromic irises shifting to the door as they widened in shock, then annoyance, and then fury.
“Run!” Kirishima yelled, cackling as he pushed past the others, Mineta screaming at the top of his lungs as Todoroki’s figure got closer and closer to the door. Ashido suddenly grinned sinisterly, spraying sticky substance from her hands to Mineta’s feet before taking off with the other girls, the boy quivering in fear as Todoroki opened the door with a loud bang.
“You’re in trouble, Mineta,” he smiled, though his eyes showed no kindness, and it was then that Mineta knew he was not getting out of there alive.
The next day, everyone came to find that Mineta had been discovered in the hall a while later by one of the teachers, who immediately rushed him to Recovery Girl. And after that day, the topic of Todoroki and Midoriya’s relationship was never mentioned again. That is, unless, one of them mentioned it, which Midoriya did constantly whenever he called Uraraka, excitedly chattering about how they’d come across a cat cafe the other day, or how amazing Todoroki was at sparring, going on and on until the boy had fallen asleep on the phone because he was so exhausted.
“Ah, really,” Uraraka sighed, flopping onto her bed face flat. “What did I do to deserve this?”
