Kaminari Denki

Having a day off was nice. Between the intense classes, internships, and overall stress of living at UA, having the day to relax was a good change of pace. Most of the hero course students were either using the time to study or train or research their projects. You were right there with them, studying team tactics and battle patterns. It wasn’t really your definition of fun, but you knew that it was the area you needed the most work in. Especially since UA was encouraging it’s future heroes to work together, really bringing the whole “era of the solo hero is over” thing home. 

 After a few hours of memorizing team building and combo attacks, you wanted to walk around and catch up with some of your classmates. So, you headed off to the gym where some of them were. Yayozoru was working on her hand-to-hand combat with Uraraka. Not surprising, you thought to yourself. She would focus on her weakest aspect and continue to try to round herself out, Momo really was such an inspiration. Maybe you should practice too. You waved to her and kept walking. The gym was full of the sound of laughter and yelling. You were almost surprised to see most of 1-A here. They were already pretty combat heavy, maybe they were trying to work out coordination tactics too. 

Kirishima, aka Red Riot, was being a test dummy for some new attack that Blasty McSplode had learned. You couldn’t drop the nickname after you heard it. It just fit too well. He kept yelling about something. You saw Kaminari laughing at the spectacle. He had the best laugh, you couldn’t help but giggle a bit with him. 

“Hey Denki” you called out, waving to him. He looked over and had to do a double take, registering who it was walking towards him. He looked over to Aishido, who gave him an encouraging shove. You reached out to stop his stumble and then it happened. 

He sparked out after getting so close to you. It felt like you has just shocked yourself after shuffling on carpet with socks on. He dropped to the ground and you blinked at him. The gym was silent. You had a payback quirk, damage dealt would be sent back in equal force, you tapped your foot and a large crack went through the clay floor. He was all zapped out, and knowing how he could be afterwards you reached out to him. 

“Hey are you okay? Denki?” You were cupping his face, trying to see if he really fried his brain this time, “Kaminari?”

He came to, his recoup time had gotten a lot shorter, thanks to his internship you were sure. He rubbed his eyes and looked up at you. 

“Y-Y/N” he stuttered, turning all sorts of red, “hey how’s it going?”

“Uh alright I guess, are you alright,” you reached out and grabbed his cheek, turning his head, “I think you hit your head” 

You leaned in to inspect the growing lump and he looked like he was going to explode.

“I’m alright, really Y/N” He scooted back, still sitting on the ground. He was six shades of red, you had gotten so close. He could smell your conditioner, a fruity light scent. Gods he was so head over heels for you. Telling himself to be cool, that people were watching, he stood up and dusted off his butt. “See? Just fine!”

Kaminari laughed and rubbed the back of his head. You sighed and walked closer to him.

“If you’re sure then okay,” he was just enough taller than you that you had to look up at him just a bit, “So, what were you working on?”

You were close again. He felt his heart pounding out of his chest He started to speak and then zaaap. He was out again. And you were absorbing the blow, again. The floor was going to look like Cemetoss himself had a fit. You kept helping up and making him flustered. Eventually you had to take him to Recovery Girl. Who knew that static-ing himself so much was like having a nose-bleed? Or maybe it was the actual nose-bleed he got when he fell onto your chest. 

When he woke up in the nurse’s office, he saw you sitting next to his bed. Back to studying but by his side. You were going to kill him. He was sure of it. You looked so pretty, chewing on the end of your pencil, eyebrows furrowed in focus, knee bouncing. Your hair was still his favorite, the way it framed your face just made his heart flutter. Natural and impressive, just like the rest of you. 

“Hey Y/N” he whispered, almost afraid to speak. You turned your head and dropped your textbook and notes. 

“Denki!” You were leaning onto the bed. Hugging him. Yep he was going to die. “I was so worried! You should have more control of your quirk by now, Recovery Girl was worried that you might’ve caught some retrovirus or something and that it was-”

He just started laughing and hugged you back, grateful that his quirk was spent.

“You just kept getting closer,” he pushed you back a bit “you just really make me lose it”

You stared at him. What was he saying now? You  couldn’t believe it. Sweet, funny, charming Kaminari Denki was saying you made him nervous. He was always so confident when you saw him in the feild or at lunch or in the dorms. Yeah you two had been texting everyday but you thought he was just being nice.

“Hey, Y/N,” he tapped your forehead, “wanna go get lunch? I’m pretty hungry”

“Absolutely.”
