Contrary to what it looked like, Adaliah wasn't hurt very badly. A few minor burns and scrapes here and there, but she was otherwise 'fine'. After the match, Katsuki- feeling rather guilty, even if he didn't show it- carried her to recovery girl, and after a short recovery session, she was good as new. Given, the moment she left her office, Adaliah was swarmed by her brother who was barking at her, already demanding explanation, trying to place blame. Adaliah merely waved him off, ignoring him every time he tried to ask her about it.

The questions had gone into the night, only ending in the morning when she had to leave early to get to class.  He offered to drive her in a final attempt to get some answers about what exactly happened, but the school was in walking distance, and she needed time to breath, so she declined, content with her choice. 

Until she got to the gates of the U.A..

Reporters bustled all around her, everywhere she looked, crowding the poor girl, frightening her as they shoved cameras and microphones in her face. It took everything in her power to not use her quirk to give her some space, Adaliah damn near an anxiety attack. Her scent signalling that; The familiar burnt sugar smell raging on.

"What's it like having All might as a teacher?!" A particularly pushy media girl yelled, Adaliah shrinking back.

"May I please have some space-"

"Come on, kid!" Another yelled, Adaliah's breath hitching when one of the male reporters grabbed her shoulder.

The world around her seemed to close in on her, dark shadows edging her vision as she tried to keep her quirk in check. She wanted nothing more than space, but the reporters continued to push her. A chill ran down her spine despite the blistering heat she was feeling. She wanted to leave. She wanted to get out. 

Helphelphelp-

"She asked for some space, so if you'll be as kind as to allow her to get to class." The temperature had dropped dramatically, a cold hand swatting at the one holding onto Adaliah's shoulder. The fresh linen smell came back, even if it was overpowered as the spicy tone increased.

He was practically given the opportunity to be her hero on a silver platter! No way was he giving this chance up.

Looking up, Adaliah sent a silent thanks to Todoroki, the boy assisting her in her time of need. Leading her by the hand, he was able to weave her through reporters, without further issue, the boy not letting go of her hand until they reached class. Even then he hesitated when she had tried going to sit down, but he eventually did; missing the warmth her small hand had provided him the second it left his grasp. 

He watched in distaste as Adaliah sat beside Kirishima, his omega laughing as the boy gave her a bright smile.  Shoto had to stop himself from snarling.

"The angel's back!" The red head had cheered,soon  encasing the white-ette in a hug, which she returned with a happy smile, nuzzling her nose into his scent gland (Which he happily allowed).

"I'm not that special, Eiji." She laughed, smiles appearing over the classroom as she pulled away.

"Most of our class would disagree, Liah babe!" Mina chuckled, wrapping an arm around Adaliah as she sat on the girl's desk.

She only laughed before pulling away once again. "So where did the nickname come from?"

"I came up with it." Denki appears beside her, holding a proud thumb to his chest as he smiled, barely noticing as the girl stood up.

"Well, I love it then, even if I'm no angel." She smiled innocently as she pressed a small peck to his cheek, turning her head and running off before the male even got a chance to react to his beyond red face. 'Holy shit she kissed me.'

It was a miracle no one had killed poor old Denki then and there.

"'Zuku!"

The green haired boy had little time to react, the girl quickly tackling him with a hug, which he returned. Their arms were tight around the other, almost as if they would loose the other the minute they let go.

This seemed to spark something new in Izuku. She was that eager to see him after knowing him for less than a week? Oh how delicious. How perfect. She was perfect in every aspect. She would be his.

"H-hey, Liah. How are you feeling?" The two had pulled away from their hug, but their arms remained around the other, both facing each other with bright smiles.

"Still in one piece." She paused, both teens laughing. "What about you?"

"Better now that your here." Izuku smiled, noticing the underlying flirt with his words all to well. He smirked as Adaliah pulled him into another hug, the alpha sending a victorious glance to those behind them. It was in that moment though, Izuku decided something.

Given it was a stupid decision, it would bring the two closer than the others would ever dream of getting. It would build a bridge of trust between them, one that Izuku would use to win their unsaid competition.

 "After school, I need to tell you something."

"Of course, anything, 'Zuku." They pulled away once more Adaliah giving him a bright smile before dragging him over to their seats.

Aizawa slumped into class a little later, tired as usual and looking defeated. "Today you'll be doing something that'll determine the rest of your future here at U.A.."

His eyes scanned the room quickly, watching as each of his students looked at him. Chisaki- or did she prefer Adaliah?- had her head tilted, which he seemed to notice her doing a lot, brows quirked. Her hands were fiddling with one of the bottom buttons of the school blouse she was wearing, Aizawa grinning when she attempted to smile at him when she noticed him looking. 

He decided to ease their nerves before too long, not wanting the rest of the students to ruin his classroom's neutral scent. "You'll be choosing a class representative."

Immediately hands shot up as yells escaped the class, each more eager than the last to be class rep; nearly everyone was jumping up in their seat. Adaliah slowly pulled her legs to her chest, both resting on the edge of her chair as she ducked her head between her knees, her scent becoming borderline burnt. Once more her breathing hitched, the noise a little under overbearing. Thankfully, a fellow student seemed to notice her discomfort, Iida quickly quieting the class while introducing a system to select their class Rep. 

His red orbs watching as she slowly eased, still hiding in the gap between her legs and her chest. How he wished to take away her anxious feelings.

Sheets of paper were passed out quickly; they were to write who they each thought suited the position. Adaliah seemed to stare at the paper, which glared right back at her. The blank space echoing just how blank her mind was.

She just met her classmates, and now she was supposed to rely on them to mandate her classroom activities?  

Her head thumped as it clacked against her kneecaps. 

<><><><>

"Greetings, Adaliah." 

Said girl turned from her place in the lunch line as a deep voice called her name, yellow orbs lighting up as a smile graced her features.

"Hey, Shoto!" Her smile seemed to brighten up the room, the boy getting a tint of red to his cheeks. 

"I was hoping you would join me for lunch today?"

Adaliah seemed to take it into consideration, her smile brightening. "Sure! We can get to re-know each other. Can you join me in line then so we can find a spot after?" Her voice was cheery and bright as she stepped to the side, allowing Todoroki to stand next to her.

"Why did you call him that?" Todoroki looked down to the girl, his eyes holding confusion and something a tad unrecognizable. Jealousy.

"Call who what?"

"Midoriya, you called him 'Zuku, earlier. Why?" The nickname alone felt gross on his tongue.

Adaliah hummed as she approached the end of the line, the food becoming incredibly tantalizing. " I like nicknames, they add a personal touch. That's kinda why I prefer to be called Liah over anything. Makes me feel closer to the person somehow. Why?" The girl grabbed one of the plastic trays, placing it on the metal rods beside her to help hold it. Todoroki copying her movement, grabbing his own tray.

"Can you give me a nickname?" The question was uncertain, the boy regretting it as soon as it came out. Lunch rush placed small bowls of white rice on each of their trays, waiting for them to make a selection on their main course as the female gave a mischievous smile.

Adaliah quickly pointed to a serving of Yakitori, the plate clattering as it was placed on her tray, Todoroki getting his own serving of Soba. "You want a nickname?" Her voice held a hint of a giggle.

"If it's not too much to ask."

"Not at all, I'd be happy too." The girl beamed again, reaching for the pocket on her blazer, Todoroki stopping her with a gesture. Her brow had raised in the cutest way, at least in his opinion, as he reached into his own pocket. Handing a bill to the cashier, Todoroki quickly rushed the girl off, looking for a spot to sit.

"You didn't have to do that, thank you, Shoto!" Adaliah smiled brightly once more, sitting in an empty seat across from him.

"It's no problem-" The dual colored male was quickly cut off by the sounds of a loud alarm blaring, several scents growing burnt as several more students stood in a rush, tension and nerves growing in the air. The male stood rather quickly, reaching out for Adaliah's hand as he urged her out of the mess hall.

"Shoto what's going on?!" Adaliah's vanilla scent turned the most burnt Shoto's ever smelt, brows furrowing as she seemed to be seconds away from breaking down. Not that is was her fault. She'd been on the urge of one since the day started.

Swallowing, the dual quirk user paused, Adaliah bumping into his back before he explained. "There's a level three break in."

Shoto: My future mate will be strong and at the utmost logical mindset-

Adaliah: *Trips over a potted plan then proceeds to apologize to it in tears*

Shoto: I want that one

Adaliah: Can we please go? The stress is bad for the baby?

Katsuki, internally panicking: WhAT baBy?!?

Adaliah, very softly: me...

Adaliah, on the phone, holding approximately 13 things of pringles: Yes. Both hands- Please I just can't let my boy friends know.

Izuku, Shoto, and Katsuki all popping their head in: What about boyfriends?

Adaliah: ThaT'S Not WhAT I MeaNt I *sobbing* JuSt WanTEd the PrinGleS At ThE BotTom!

Aizawa: You know there's a 50% chance of death during this procedure.

Adaliah: Good. We'll do it twice then.

Aizawa: AdALiaH nO-
