(Y/n) (L/n)'s Point of View «

'September 1st, 1989. Dear Diary: I believe I'm a good person. Ya know, I think there's good in everyone, but here we are first day of senior year. I look around at all these kids I've known all my life and I ask myself: What happened?'

"Freak!"
"Sl*t!"
"Burnout!"
"Bug-Eyes!"
"Poser!"
"Lard ass!" The students yelled across the hallway. 'We were so tiny, happy and shiny, playing tag and getting chased.–'
"Freak! "
"Sl*t!"
"Loser!"
"Short bus!" the students, once again, yelled at each other. '–Singing and clapping, laughing and napping, baking cookies, eating paste.' I thought. "Bull-dyke!"
"Stuck-up!"
"Hunchback!" the students' insults continued.

'Then we got bigger. That was the trigger, like the Huns invading Rome -' I bumped into a student, "Sorry!" I said.
'Welcome to my school, this ain't no high school; this is the Thunderdome. Hold your breath and count the days, we're graduating soon.' "White trash!" The insults kept going.

'College will be paradise If I'm not dead by June! But I know, I know, life can be beautiful. I pray, I pray for a better way. If we changed back then, we could change again! We can be beautiful...'. "Ow!" A preppy stud then knocks a hipster to the floor. 'Just not today.' I thought, "Hey, are you okay?" I asked, quite concerned. "Get away, nerd!" "Oh... sorry."
"Freak!"
"Sl*t!"
"Cripple!"
"Homo!"
"Homo!"
"Homo!" the insults had started up once again.

---» Timeskip to the cafeteria.

'Things will get better soon as my letter comes from Harvard, Duke, or Brown. Wake from this coma, take my diploma, then I can blow this town. Dream of my ivy-covered walls and smoky French cafes...' I accidentally jostle Ojiro Mashida "Watch it!" he sneered.

'Fight the urge to strike a match
and send this dump ablaze!' I thought kinda psychotic like. Ojiro upends my lunch tray. "Ooooops." Ojiro said sarcastically. "Ojiro Mashida. Third year as linebacker. And eighth year of smacking lunch trays and being a huge dick." I wrote in my journal, not realizing that I said it out loud.
"What did you say to me, skank?"
"Aagh! Nothing." I reply swiftly.
'But I know, I know, I know... life can be beautiful.I pray, I pray, I pray for a better way. We were kind before; we can be kind once more. We can be beautiful...'

I get surprised when a hand clasped my shoulder, "Ah! Hey Toru!" I greeted "Hey!" she grinned. 'Toru Hagakure, my best friend since diapers!' I monologued. "Are we on for movie night?"
"Yeah! You're on jiffy pop detail."
"I rented The Princess Bride!"
"Ohoho, again? Wait, don't you have it memorized by now?"
"What can I say? I'm a sucker for a happy ending." She sighs dreamily.
"Toru Hagakure! Wide load! HAHA!" Sero laughed.

'Kurt Kelly. Quarterback. He is the smartest guy on the football team.
Which is kind of like being the tallest dwarf.' I monologued. "Hey! Pick that up right now!"

"I'm sorry, are you actually talking to me?" He asked offended. "Yes, I am. I wanna know what gives you the right to pick on my friend. You're a high school has-been waiting to happen. A future gas station attendant." I reply, quite furiosly too.

"... You have a zit right there..." He said.

'Dear diary: why....'
"Why do they hate me?"
"Why don't I fight back?"
"Why do I act like such a creep?" A group of outcasts questioned.

'Why....'

"Why won't he date me?"
"Why did I hit him?"
"Why do I cry myself to sleep?" Another group whined.

"Why...."

"Somebody hug me!
Somebody fix me!
Somebody save me!
Send me a sign, God!
Give me some hope here!
Something to live for!" the outcasts mourned. And all goes silent as The Heroines enter the caffiterea.

"Aah! Katsuki, Denki, and Eijiko!" The crowd chants.

"Then there's the Heroines. They float above it all" I said bitterly.

"I love Katsuki, Denki, and Eijiko." everyone chanted like mind slaves.

'Denki Kaminari. Head cheerleader. Her dad's loaded- he sells engagement rings.'

"I hate Katsuki, Denki, and Eijiko." A group of goths and emos mutter. Luckily, nobody heard them, or they would've been dead.

"Eijiko Kirishima. Runs the yearbook. No discernible personality, but her mom did pay for implants." I said to Toru, who snickered.

"I want Katsuki, Denki, and Eijiko!" A group of creeps purred. 'Gross.' I shivered.

'And Katsuki Bakugo. The Almighty......

..... she is a mythic bitch.'

"They are solid Teflon– never bothered, never harassed.  I would give anything to be like that." I sighed. "I'd like to be their boyfriend." Some hipster said "That would be beautiful..." His friend agreed. "If I sat at their table, guys would notice me!" A geeky girl said "So beautiful..." The geeky girl sighed.

"I'd like them to be nicer." Toru said. "That would be beautiful." I agreed.

"I'd like to kidnap a Heroine and photograph her naked in an abandoned warehouse and leave her tied up for the rats!" Some creepy dude said. the entire cafeteria stared at him in shock and disgust.

"Hup! BLAAAARGGH!" Eijiko groaned(?) as she threw up into the toliet.

"Ugh. Grow up, Eijiko. Bulimia is so '87." Katsuki said."Maybe you should see a doctor, Eijiko." Denki requested, concerned. "Yeah, Denki. Maybe I should." Eijiko replied.

(Author: Yo, drinking game challenge for those who drink: take a shot  whenever I write The Heroines/one of The Heroines' names.)

"Ah, Katuki and Denki." Ms. Yaoyozoro greeted. Eiji then proceeded to vomit.
"... And Eijiko. Perhaps you didn't hear the bell over all the vomiting. You're late for class." She stated.

(Y/n), who witnesses the scenario and saw the opportunity, started to scribble on a piece of paper.

"Eijiko wasn't feeling well. We're helping her." Katsuki stated.
"Not without a hall pass you're not. A week's detention for you three." Ms. Yaoyozoro said. "Actually, Ms. Yaoyozoro, all four of us are out on a hall pass..... Yearbook committee." (Y/n) explained.

"... I see you're all listed. Hurry up and get where you're going." Ms. Yaoyozoro left. "This is an excellent forgery. Who are you?" Katsuki said, not bothering to hide her suspition in her voice."(Y/n) (L/n). I crave a boon." Y/n siad 'RIP me.' She thought grimly.

"What boon?" Katsuki hissed. "Um, let me sit at your table– at lunch. Just once. No talking necessary. If people think you guys tolerate me, they'll leave me alone–" The Heroines laughed, interrupting her. "Before you answer, I also do report cards, permission slips and absence notes." (Y/n) added. "How about prescriptions?" Eijiko piped up, looking a little interested. "Shut up, Eijiko." Katsuki said, annoyed.
"Sorry, Katsuki." Eijiko apologized. Katsuki began inspecting (Y/n)'s face.

"Y'know... For a greasy little nobody, you do have good bone structure."
"And a symmetrical face! If I took a meat cleaver down the center of your skull, I'd have matching halves. That's very important." Denki comments, officially creeping (Y/n) the hell out. "Of course, you could stand to lose a few pounds." Eijiko rudely stated.

"And ya know, ya know, ya know? This could be beautiful." Katsuki said "Mascara, maybe some lip gloss,
and we're on our way. Get this girl some blush; and Denki, I need your brush. Let's make her beautiful." Katsuki said in a sing-song voice.
"Let's make her beautiful..." Denki excitedly agrees.
"Let's make her beautiful..." Eijiko agreed with as well.
"Make her beautiful... okay?" Katsuki asked.

"Okay!" (Y/n) eagerly stated.
;;;;;;;;;;;;;Timeskip to another day, another hellish lunch.;;;;;;;;;;;;;

"Out of my way geek!" a jock yelled "I don't want any trouble -" a geek nervously said. "You're gonna die at 3pm!" the jock interrupted, pushing the geek away harshly. "Don't you dare touch me! Get away, pervert!" two girls hissed at the geek. "What'd I ever do to them?" the poor geek questioned.

"Who could survive this?"
"I can't escape this!"
"I think I'm dying!" Some outcasts cried.

"Who's that with The Heroines?!" some random person yelled out.

The Heroines and an unknown girl entered the cafeteria fabulously.
"Whoa. Katsuki, Denki, Eijiko–"

"And someone!"

"Katsuki, Denki, Eijiko–" "And a babe!" The same group of creeps as yesterday purrs. "Katsuki, Denki, Eijiko–" the crowd said aloud.
"(Y/n)?!" Toru exclaimed.
"(Y/n)? (Y/n)?! (Y/n)!!" Everyone in the cafeteria yells.

The Heroines part, revealing a smoking hot (Y/n) (L/n) who has been given a make-over.

"And ya know, ya know, ya know, life can be beautiful! You hope, you dream, you pray, and you get your way! Ask me how it feels– looking like hell on wheels..." (Y/n) says with a smile "My God, it's beautiful!"
"Beautiful!" The kids cheer.
"I might be beautiful!"
"Beautiful!"
"And when you're beautiful... it's a beautiful frickin' day!"

"Katsuki, Denki, Eijiko... (Y/n)!
Katsuki! Denki! Eijiko... (Y/n)!
(Y/n)! (Y/n)! (Y/n)! (Y/N)!" Everyone cheers. And (Y/n)'s world has been turned upside down.

----- three weeks later -----

'Dear Diary: it has been 3 weeks since I've became friends with the Heroines. Well, "friends" is not the right word exactly... it's more like The Heroines are people I work with and our job is being popular and shit.–' (Y/n)'s train of thought was interrupted by seeing Toru heading towards her. "Hey (Y/n)."
"Hey!"
"You look really beautiful these days..."
"Yeah, well, it's still the same me underneath!"
"Are you sure?"
"Look, I'm sorry I flaked out on movie night last week, I had a lot going on."
"I get that. You're with The Heroines now, its exciting!"
"It's whateverrr. Uh, but we'll hang soon! I promise."
"(Y/n)! Katsuki says to haul as to the caf pronto. How very." Eijiko interrupted rudely. I gave an awkward lopsided smile to Toru as a goodbye and followed Eijiko to the cafeteria.

//// Timeskip to da cafeteria brought to you by autocorrect ////

"(Y/n), I need a forgery in Ojiro Mashida's handwriting. Do you need something to write on. Eijiko bend over." Katsuki commanded. Eijiko bends her back for me to write on. I start writing as she spoke. "Hi honey, I have been watching you and thinking about us in the old days. I hope you can come to my homecoming party this weekend. I miss you. Ojiro. And put in XO after the signature." Katsuki said. "What's this for, anyway?" I asked "You know how Ojiro used to hang around Toru Fat-o-curry?"
"Well yeah, in kindergarten. We all did."
"We all didn't kiss on the kickball field."
"Oh my gosh, that's right! I totally forgot. Ojiro kissed Toru Fat-o-curry. It was disgusting, hehe!"
Perfect. Hey Ojiro, come here."
Ojiro looked shocked when Katsuki called him over, and turned to Sero.
"What do you think Katsuki wants?" He asked excitedly
"I bet you she wants you to, like, set her on your jots and spin her on like a goddam pinwheel!" Sero replied.
"Hell yeah! PUNCH IT IN!!" They both laughed like maniacs, calmed down and walked over to The Heroines. "Be a sweetie and give this note to Toru Fat-o-curry."
"What? No!" (Y/n) argued, but was ignored.
"Uh, since when do you hang around with that lard ass?"
"Don't read it, she's having an extra heavy flow and needed some advice from my gyno." Katsuki said. The two jocks looked at each other in disgust, but proceeded to complete the task. "Why did you to that? Toru has had a thing for Ojiro 12 years now, this could kill her! Come on Katsuki, you're bigger than this."

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

"Are we gonna have a problem?" Katsuki asked distastefully "You got a bone to pick? You've come so far, why now are you pulling on my dick?!" she sneered. "I'd normally slap your face off, and everyone here could watch." Katsuki said sickeningly sweet.
"But I'm feeling nice. Here's some advice. Listen up, biotch!" She yelled. Suddenly some real catchy music started playing and The Heroines start dancing. 'Don't tell me they're gonna start acting like we're in a musical' (Y/n) prays.

"I like–" Denki and Eiji sang 'Theey aarrre.' (Y/n) mentally whined as she continued to be silent. "–Lookin' hot. Buying stuff they cannot." Katsuki continued.

[K]"You can fly with eagles-"
[👸🏻]"-Or if you prefer,-"
[K]"-Keep on testing me-"

"-And end up like her!" The Heroines said in unison and pointed at Toru. "(Y/n), look! Ram invited me to his homecoming party! This proves he's been thinking about me!" Toru fangirled "......Color me stoked!" (Y/n) said, trying to cover up her anxiety and guilt as much as she could. "I'm so happy!" Toru cried in joy and skipped away, leaving (Y/n) feeling even more guilty.

[👸🏻]"Woah!"
[E]Honey, whachu waiting fo—
"SHUT UP EIJI!!!" Katsuki interrupted, slapping Eiji. 'That has got to hurt.'
[K]"Step inyo my can-dy store! Oooh woah! Woah oh oh!"
[👸🏻]"Time for you to prove you're not a lame ass anymore! Then step into my candy store!"

[👸🏻]"It's my candy store-
It's my candy-
It's my candy store-
It's my candy-
It's my candy store!!!" The Heroines sang in unison, circling around her a few times finishing the song. The Heroines walked away, leaving (Y/n) feeling crushed.
