⌈ Todoroki's POV ⌋

I found myself sitting on the couch in the dorms with a book, I was feeling sick in a way, I wasn't quite sure why. This pit in my stomach that was constantly bringing me discomfort.
I took a sip of my tea that was now cold, I scrunched up my face at the taste of the cold bevarage on my tongue.
I heard Ashido and Asui talk in the kitchen, I could hear their conversation from where I was sitting, I considered not to listen in, but I couldn't help my curiosity.

"Didn't you hear, Tsuyu~chan? Yaomomo lashed out on Kaminari last night after she found him peeking-" Mina said, she had a slight shock in her tone.

Yaomomo? Did she mean Yaoyorozu? Her, lashing out on Kaminari? I didn't think that she would do that, considering her temprament, but on the other hand, I didn't know how she was during.. that time of the month, maybe her moodswings were worse than.. I thought about my older sister, Fuyumi, during her period, her moodswings were terrifying, she had the sweetness of my mother in one second and then the intimidation of my old man in the next.. She even managed to terrify Natsuo one time, that was something else.

I remember that day clearly, Natsuo came running into my room and slammed the door shut, quickly hiding under my bed and explaining that Fuyumi had almost tossed a frying pan after him when he made a comment about feeling a bit sick after the dinner she made, I was about 10 back then..

I snapped out of my thoughts and continued to listen to the conversation the two girls had,
"Really? ribbit.. Yaomomo is usually sweet, ribbit.. But considering that she caught Kaminari peeking at her, I would be pretty mad as well, ribbit.." Asui croaked back, she didn't show any surprise in her tone as she spoke, but it's hard to tell with that girl..

"Yeah! I would too! But after that she was sobbing for a full minute before she calmed down, I kinda relate to her in a way, BUT STILL! That was totally unexpected!" Mina flailed with her arms, bouncing around a bit.

I thought about it, Yaoyorozu angry.. I wonder how that would be..
I took another sip of my cold tea and scrunched my face up again, it was bitter. I didn't want the cold tea, so I put my left hand on the teacup and heated up my body, I looked at the tea inside the cup as it slowly but surely started to heat up, some of the heat running along my face which I closed my eyes to, I felt calm in that moment.

My moment with the hot teacup was quickly interrupted by what sounded like Mineta screaming, the nasty grape boy came running down the stairs, breathing heavily.
"Y-YAOMOMO AND BAKUGOU ARE GOING TO KILL ME..!" he yelled.

Bakugou and Yaoyorozu? That's.. an odd duo, considering their personalities are so opposite from eachother. I felt something tingle in my leg but ignored it as something came flying down the stairs, it was.. a plate? A porcelain plate that smashed against the ground, and right after that came Bakugou stomping down the stairs with an identical plate raised, I inspected the plate and saw Yaoyorozu's name on the side of it.. So she had created plates for Bakugou to toss? Damn.. She must be angry..

"COME BACK HERE YOU FUCKING PERVERT! LET ME SMASH THIS PLATE AGAINST YOUR HEAD, LET'S SEE IF IT STICKS!" Bakugou yelled, his palm covering in flames and bursting into a smaller explosion, followed by smoke.

Mineta screamed, a high pitched scream that sounded like a girls' scream, I had to stop myself from laughing, this was something else, meanwhile in the kitchen, Ashido was dying of laughter, I saw her fall over and Kirishima quickly running over to check on her, this was chaos, this dorm was utter chaos 50% of the time..

Bakugou chased after Mineta and down from the stairs came a calm and collected Yaoyorozu, she had a turtleneck on, it really highlighted the curves she possessed, the light blasting from the window behind her really made her look like an angel descending from heaven, but.. Her eyes told another story, they were narrow and focused, she looked like she was ready to strangle anyone who breathed the wrong way. It was definetely that time of the month, pretty intimidating if I say so myself.

She adjusted her spiky ponytail before walking into the kitchen, getting a tub of icecream and a spoon, walking back up to her room in complete silence, leaving only silence after her, the only exception being the faint screams from Mineta and Bakugou outside the dorms, but that was.. negotiable.

After Yaoyorozu left I got up and walked into the kitchen, looking at Ashido, Kirishima and Asui who were all sitting on the floor now, they were chatting happily about animals, a weird topic, but who were I to judge.

I emptied the teacup in the sink and filled up the kettle with water and waited for it to start boiling, I leaned against the counter with my book and flipped a page, continuing to read.

(The following italics is what the pages read.)

The woman was waiting by the docks, leaning against the fence and gazing over the sunrise. Her blonde hair was following the wind peacefully, Zeke felt his heart beat faster and kneeled down in the thorny bushes, watching the woman. Who was she? How could she be so graceful without even doing anything?
The woman was holding a snow white rose in between her index finger and thumb, starting to sing on a soft tune, I could only hear a few of the words exit her mouth, it sounded heavenly, like an angel that was singing on a lullaby to calm down a baby..

The sky had turned into a pink colour, Zeke had no idea how much time had passed, only listening to the woman with blonde hair sing. Suddenly, the woman stopped singing, crushing the white rose in her hand and dropping it into the water, the gentle stream of the river carrying it away, Zeke sucked in a pained breath and lowered his body into the thorny bushes, the thorns were tugging at his clothes, as if they wanted to tangle him into the bush forever and never let go.
The woman turned around and started to walk back towards the tiny village that was positioned behind the docks. Zeke could finally see the womans face, she had beautiful, big blue eyes and rosy cheeks, her lips were lush and her cheeks were full, she was perfect.. a princess..

I snapped out of the reading by the kettle starting to whistle, I surpressed a few of the flashbacks of the warm kettle, stroking some crumbs of the counter to put the book there without smudging it, I peacefully made myself a new cup of tea, feeling my body relax as the water hit the bottom of the cup. A Sunday, a wonderful Sunday. But it was coming to its end and I should probably head to bed soon, I decided against that, and to stay up a bit longer and finish the book that I was reading.

I grabbed my cup of tea and my book, walking up towards my dorm room and opening the door, sighing softly.
I stepped inside and closed the door behind me, walking out to the balcony and sitting down on a chair and putting my teacup on the small table beside it.
I closed my eyes and listened a bit, I heard the slight sound of crickets in the distance and it calmed me down, drastically. I felt tired, keeping my eyes closed as I listened to the calming sound of crickets.

After a few minutes I opened my eyes, opening the book and continuing to read, I felt myself dive into the fantasy world of the book in my hands, sometimes taking a sip out of my teacup.
