Just a quick announcement! Next chapter will be the 50th chapter of this book so I wanted to so something special for this accomplishment and hold a Q+A. Comment down your questions and I'll answer them in the next chapter! On with the story,

The theater was quite pack today so Momo and Jirou decided they would get the tickets, while me and Kamanari got the snacks.

We should definitely get popcorn. Maybe, some candy for Momo. "I wonder what she likes, however she usually eat only healthy foods like avocado. I'm pretty sure they don't sell that in a snack stand." I sighed, then looked over to Kamanari who was staring into space.

"Hey," I tapped him on the shoulder. Not even a budge, I rolled my eyes freezing my hand and putting it on his neck.

"AHH!! HEY MAN!" Kamanari shivered from my cold touch. "Did you have to do that?"

I shrugged, "You didn't answer me the first time, so that was my solution."

"Turning me into a popsicle?! That was your idea!?" Kamanari replies covering his body with his hands.

My face lit up, "I wonder if Momo likes popsicles! Maybe I should get her that..."

"Can you stop thinking about the girl for once!!"
"No!"

Kamanari sighed, "How did the prettiest girl in school fall in love with such an idiot?"

I shook off his insult. "C'mon, you still haven't chosen your snacks. Jirou might kill you going in the theater empty handed."

He looks down at the stand. "Yeah.. you're probably right...." Kamanari's face was wrinkled with distress, he looked so sad.

I took a glance at him, "Is there something bothering Kamanari?" I asked giving my full attention to him.

He sighs, "I guess... must be pretty great to be in a relationship already.." Kamanari smiles, wiping the sad look away. "Jeez! When did you get so emotional? Momo and Jirou are probably tired of waiting for us! Let's go!" He says pushing me away.

I tense from his touch, there must really be something wrong with him.

We stepped into the dark theater and searched for Jirou and Momo. I was starting to think I should've resorted to my flame quirk instead. Until I found a hand waving to us.

"Hey! Shouto, Kamanari!" Momo says waving her arm. With Jirou sat down next to her and just nodded her head at us.

I took the seat next to Momo and Jirou was sitting on the other side of her seat with Kamanari. I look towards Momo who was flipping her phone in her hand but the screen was off.

"Your dad?" I asked handing her the bucket of popcorn.

She takes a piece, throwing it in her mouth. "Yeah, I should probably silence my phone I don't want to cause a scene." Momo smiles forcing the smartphone into her purse.

"Anyways, thanks for coming along! I would've felt like a third wheeler if it was only me with Jirou and Kamanari." Momo giggles, she doesn't know that they aren't actually dating.

I chuckled, just go along with it. "No problem, it's be nice to hang out with the person I like.." it took about a second to realize what I said. Too late to take it back it now.

Momo has a suprised look on her face, but giggles from my reaction. "Yes, it is nice to be with the people I like. Which includes you Todoroki.." she gives me a smile, with her red painted lips.

Oh no,
Don't think about it....

I shake my head, after Momo turns away from me. Thank God, I got off the habit of catching on fire. Or else the theater would have to close down.

The movie started to play as the lights grew dim and the crowd went silent. I lean back with my right hand on the arm rest. The movie was quite interesting, the usual asian family with a poor girl and rich guy. I wasn't focused on all the details, I just took frequent glances at Momo.

She said that her father didn't want her to come. Does that mean, Momo hasn't been out like this frequently? This could've been her first time hanging out with her friends.

I sighed sadly, I hope everything works out for her. I tried to return my attention to the movie theater, but something else caught my eye.

All of the people in this theater were couples! I mean it wasn't a suprise, this movie was a romance movie. Dammit.. everyone was holding hands!

Do I have to hold Momo's hand?

I look towards her, she was laughing at a funny scene something I didn't take notice of. Her hand was on her arm rest.

Should I take her hand?

Sweat dripped from my head, I could feel my heat rising. Cool down, cool down... trying to use my quirk which didn't work. I stare at her perfectly painted nails and those slim fingers, leading up to her hand.

I shake my head, what the hell am I thinking about? Just hold her hand! My hand shakes when my hand goes over to the arm rest.

It just hovers over her hand, dammit Shouto you're way too close to go back now! Just put your hand over her's. Should I ask her if she wants me to hold her hand? W-What if she brushes my hand off? What if I get rejected for the second time?!

All my thoughts were clouded ignoring everything due to my stress. But then I felt soft fingers intertwine with mine. My heartbeat quickened, I looked over to my hand to see Momo's hand wrapping around mine.

I looked up to see her not looking at me, in fact she was trying to look away from me. Pink was painted over her cheeks, a blush so innocent.

I coughed, laughing over my own stress. Sometimes I forget that, I'm not the only one scared to try new things such as these.

During the whole movie, I just enjoyed holding Momo's hand.
