«3rd Person's POV»

Singing, dancing and socializing weren't exactly the favourite things of Todoroki. However after a bit of persuading from both of his friends, he gradually found himself standing in front of a Karaoke shop with Bakugo and Yaoyorozu.

"Trust me Shoto, singing isn't that hard! And we're not judging anyways." Chirped Yaoyorozu, who seemed to be in a really good mood. "And you!" She pointed at Bakugo. "Stop pretending you dislike singing! I heard you murmur songs okay?"

Todoroki looked up at Bakugo. "You sing? Wow, never knew."

Bakugo flushed and swore at Yaoyorozu. "What the Fuck? You stalk me or something?"

Yaoyorozu continued to bicker with Bakugo and Todoroki shook his head in disappointment. They proceeded through the gate of the shop and showed the tickets.

"That'll be room 175 on 2nd floor. Would you like any drink?" The recipient girl asked, batting her eyelashes at Todoroki.

"We're fine." Todoroki responded, quickly holding Bakugo's hands who smirked at the horror-struck lady. Yaoyorozu chuckled.

"Bold, bold." She whispered.

As they proceeded through the stairs, Bakugo let out a sudden growl.

"Why do they always target you?" He asked, clearly annoyed.

Todoroki shrugged at the question, he never really got why people would have interest in someone at first glance anyways.

"Stop sulking about it Katsuki, it just means you've got a real thing there." Yaoyorozu winked.

"Don't you fucking start drooling over my boyfriend too!"

"As if I'm straight!"

Todoroki and Bakugo blinked at Yaoyorozu who triumphantly smiled at the sudden appearance of Jirou Kyoka.

"You guys came!" Jirou ran accross the other side of the hallway and reached them. She was wearing a violet top with ripped jeans, her face flushing either from the run or certainly something else. "C'mon, follow me. Everyone's waiting!" She said excitedly.

The two girls started chatting heavily, laughing and eyeing each other at sudden occassions. Bakugo, who was right behind them and was sensing some sort of tension, nudged Todoroki. Although seeing Todoroki's confused face asking why he was nudged, the blind decided that his boyfriend was an oblivious dumbass as ever.

After about a two minutes walk, they stopped in front of a door. Jirou proceeded to open the door and let the other three in.

The room wasn't too crowded, much to the trio's liking, there were only a few known faces.

"Todoroki-kun, Bakugo-kun and Momo-chan, please take a seat." Tsuyu's voice croacked through the silence which was erupted by them walking in. They all took a seat next to each other on the opposite couch, awkwardly it must be noted.

"Setting all formalities aside, should we start singing?" Iida exclaimed with his right hand on the air, like he was answering a question in class.

"You're the one who's being so fucking formal. We're here to enjoy the night, not attend some press conference meeting." Bakugo said stiffly.

Though Bakugo's statement did break the ice between the two so called 'groups', it brought back the unbrearable silence accompanied with pairs of eyes glued at Bakugo himself. "What?" He asked, taken aback.

Midoriya opened his mouth, but closed the next moment. Seeing Bakugo's eyes on him made him shiver, both in fear and shame. But mostly shame.

After all, the green haired male did utter a lot of harsh words about his childhood companion. Yes, it had been the result of being continuously tormented by the blond. But when he gave a nice thought about it, Midoriya was the coward to not stand up and protect himself. Plus holding childhood grudges seemed thoroughly childish. He was really ready to start all over again.

He gathered to the courage to spout words, took a deep breathe and said, "c'mon kacchan, we're not holding a conference meeting!"

It was the first time in months he talked normally to Bakugo. And he was, if anything, fearing if he would be blown in the face for daring to speak to him.

Bakugo stared at Midoriya, and then rolled his eyes. "Well then start something! We ain't got hours yaknow."

Bakugo said, like nothing had ever happened between the two. though right after he gave Midoriya a look which meant 'you're not forgiven bastard'. Midoriya smiled softly, nodding to mostly himself.

"Pick a song ribbit!" Tsuyu put her hand on the air excitedly. Jirou and Yaoyorozu laughed.

Soon the music box was hammering the room with 'Cheap Thrills' and almost everyone was singing along.

"I ain't got cash," Jirou sang with her melodic voice and then pointed at Yaoyorozu with her index finger. "but I got you baby!"

The rest of the group continued singing while Jirou and Yaoyorozu stared at each other, the violet haired girl completely red and the brunette with her eyes wide.

"S-sorry." Jirou looked away and muttered before singing again in broken lyrics.

Yaoyorozu stared at her for a few seconds before helping herself with a glass of orange juice. The icy juice definitely calmed her racing heart a bit. Why was it beating anyway?

Next the mini group was dancing to 'Uptown Funk' and so on until Tsuyu went up to grab a mic and announce that they all should sing solo.

"Great idea! Why don't you start Tsuyu?" Midoriya exclaimed.

"I will, ribbit, but first we should hear a song from a perfectionist. And I'm talking about the one and only Jirou Kyoka!" Tsuyu jumped like a little frog.

"What? N-no you guys sing!" Jirou stuttered, still red. "I'm really not into singing in front of people..."

"Give it a try Kyo!" Tsuyu hopped off the stage and handed Jirou the Mic, pushed her up to the stage while not listening to her protests.

"Do it Kyo!" Midoriya cheered.

"Yes sing for us Kyoka!" Yaoyorozu yelled. And that was enough for Jirou to have a heart attack.

She looked around nervously and picked a song on the machine. Then put the Mic closer to her mouth.

"You're on your phone with you girlfriend, she's upset. She's going off about something that you said, cause she doesn't get your humor like I do~"

She sang, her eyes mildly open and looking at a blushing Yaoyorozu. Everyone else except Bakugo, who was noticing again the tension between them, stared at Jirou in awe and melted at her voice.

"Oh, You belong with me~" Jirou finished with a whisper. She closed her eyes and exhaled a breathe she didn't even know she was holding in. And then slowly opened her eyes, under the neon lights of the room, the only thing that shone bright as a crystal was a certain black haired girl. She stared at Yaoyorozu for a few seconds before the clappings around her reached her ears.

"That was amazing!" Iida clapped along with everyone else. Everyone else except her.

'Thanks.' The violet haired girl gave a smile which didn't quite reach her eyes. She got down the stage and handed Midoriya the mic before excusing herself to the washroom.

Once Midoriya started singing 'girls like you', Bakugo glanced at an unfazed Yaoyorozu. The brunette was suddenly quiet and not talking. The blond glanced at Todoroki who was, finally, noticing the same off attitude from Yaoyorozu. Bakugo nodded at Todoroki, silently telling to comfort their friend before sneakily heading towards the women's washroom.

Jirou came to a sudden halt when she was blocked by Bakugo on the corridor of the washroom. The boy was standing there with his hands folded in a 'we have business' manner.

"What?" Jirou tried to sound as normal as she could. But figured she didn't succeed much when Bakugo's head perked up at her sniffing nose.

"I'll get straight to the point here earphones," Bakugo closed his eyes and sighed. "You like her, don't you?"

Jirou's heart hammered in her chest, was she obvious? It that why Yaoyorozu didn't have any reaction to her song? Did the brunette indirectly reject her before she even tried to confess?

She gulped, "wh-what?"

"Stop the dumbass act would you?" Bakugo scoffed and opened his eyes. "I know you've got a crush on our friend."

Jirou's world crashed. The thinh she had been fearing had come true, they knew. They all knew.

But as if Bakugo just read her mind through her drastically swollen eyes, he quickly added, "yeah don't get into the worry stuffs, neither of those idiots know anything. Although you were painfully obvious." He cringed.

"Oh!" Jirou gasped, the little hope coming back to her. "Oh, well. You pulled a smart one there Bakugo." She muttered, her voice low.

"You don't deny it?" Bakugo tilted his head. Jirou smiled softly.

"Would you deny you love Todoroki?"

"No."

"There you go."

"Are you suuuuure about this, brain-fucker?" The young girl sang in an evil melody, her steel silver left eye shining in the darkness while the grey one remained dead. She jumped and vanished in thin air, appeared again with a black smoke in front of the table and grabbed another chicken nugget before chewing it cruelly. "This is gonna be sooooooo fun~~"

"You sure look excited." The man with scars smirked.

"Of course she's excited! So am I!" Another young girl let out a chuckle. "She's gonna give me the blood after its finished!!"

"Of course darling! Aaaaall of the blood is yours after the job is done. just a few more days!"

"But first, we need to take a step."

"Which is gonna be-"

"-taken right now."

Everyone looked at the guy with black eyebags under his eyes.

"I'll do it."

"Oh joy!!!!"

ω

The hallway was almost empty, Jirou walked through it while singing a song to mostly herself.

After her talk with Bakugo, she had been able to go back to her normal self and enjoy the party with everyone else. She had been somewhat relieved to share things with Bakugo, it was almost unbelievable how the boy with anger issues could be such a great emotional companion. Jirou even cried without the fear of being judged. It was like a weird friendship formed between the two of them. In the amex Bakugo promised to help Jirou out which she was extrmely grateful for.

She reached the counter and told the accountant to send five more bottles of orange juice and a few pastries up in their room.

"Sorry, how many bottles again, madam?"

"Huh? Five-"

For a second, everything went black.
