Mina was always considered an outcast.
When she was a child, she never really wanted to play with the other girls who frolicked around. She preferred to either pretend to be her mom and apply makeup, or shoot basketballs with some guys. Despite the backlash she got from it, she never stopped.
So it wasn’t surprising when in UA, she became best friends with the Bakusquad. The group consisted of Bakugou, Kirishima, Sero, Denki, and herself. Jiro was an honorary member, as was Shinso (he tagged along when he was forced by the resident discount pikachu.)
Even though she and Kirishima had been friends in middle school, Mina found herself growing closer to Bakugou. In more ways than one. Sure, he was aggressive and loud, but he could tone it down whenever he wanted to. And a calm Bakugou was a fun one. There were multiple nights where the two would sit in Bakugou’s room, trying out different makeups and applying face masks, - while talking about how much they sucked of course.
She first grew close with him when class-3A went to the mall. She was in a store and was struggling to pick out an outfit. Her top was perfect, but she couldn’t find any shorts that went well. Bakugou had ended up dragging her to Gucci and buying her a pair of eco-washed denim shorts. They became her new favourites and he didn’t even let her pay him back! (He also got an earful about he should have told her that his parents were fashion designers and that he was loaded, so that she could’ve been shopping with him forever)
After that encounter, they grew closer and closer, to the point where they would be perfectly comfortable with watching movies while Mina only wore her bra and some booty-shorts and Bakugou only had on some basketball shorts.
Mina felt a whole lot of pride and joy when Bakugou told her his secret. That he and Deku were dating. Sure, she had noticed that their relationship grew since the first year, but by this much was amazing! And the fact that he told her , not even Kirishima, made her feel special, and she vowed on her life to never tell a single soul. Not even the ghosts that were haunting her room - (yes, they were real! She and Bakugou did an Ouija board!)
Over the next few months, the three became extremely close. Even the other classmates had started to notice it. Nobody questioned it though. They were happy that Bakugou and Midoriya finally got along and that they were having fun.
--------------------------
“Can you guys like - not? Ya’ll are making me feel so single!” Mina whined, crossing her arms over her chest and sinking into the beanbag.
The trio was currently situated in Mina’s dorm room. The female alien was sitting cross-legged on her beanbag on the floor while Bakugou and Deku were cuddling on the bed. Bakugou had his back against the headboard with his legs down and together. Deku was currently sitting on his knees on top of Bakugou’s lap, getting showered in kisses.
The two lovebirds only laughed and Izuku blushed.
“Well, you wouldn’t be fucking single if you just confessed to Shitty Hair you know. It’s obvious he’s head over heels for you.” Bakugou reprimanded, stuffing his face into his boyfriend’s neck and inhaling the minty scent.
“He isn’t wrong Mina,” Izuku agreed, combing his hands through Bakugou’s spikes, “Kirishima-kun definitely likes you. I think you should confess.”
“Oh come on Izubae!” Mina groaned, tossing her hands in the air, “at least you should understand! I want him to confess to me ! And in a romantic way! Like, under a cherry blossom, or maybe where we met in middle school, or- HEY! Stop laughing Katsuki! I swear you two are so annoying!”
Katsuki only laughed more and Izuku hid his giggles behind his hand, though ultimately failed. The two burst out with laughter and Mina puffed out her cheeks in an attempt to not laugh but finally let loose and cackled. She snorted loudly and the three stopped for a second, glancing at one another before they all started cackling like witches.
--------------------
Mina was affectionate. It was obvious on the first day. The way she clung to Kirishima’s arm, or sometimes jumped on Sero’s back. Also due to the fact of her always wanting to hug her classmates and hold hands with the girls. Unfortunately, U.A is still a high school. And high school means rumors. So, Mina was forced to keept her touchy hands to herself while in public. Though there were some times where she had forgotten about that.
Once, her and Izuku had been coming back from shopping and the two were holding hands, happily skipping along. Mina was blushing (though you could only tell due to her face being darker than her normal skin), as Izuku had been teasing her about Kirishima.
That meant the obvious. They looked like a couple. Lots of students were out in the courtyard, and one of them had confronted them about it.
Mina and Izuku only shared a glance before bursting with laughter.
“Me?! Dating Mina?! No way!” Izuku told the male between gasps.
“Nah bro. You got it all wrong! This broccoli is a gay mess!” Mina shouted - very loudly, may Izuku add.
The male who had asked looked very unconvinced, as did the other students. But they all rubbed it off and decided to believe the two third years.
When Mina and Izuku told Bakugou, he had immediately taken Izuku to his room and had an “enjoyable” time. Mina also got a punch to the face from Izuku for asking if his ass hurt. (BTW: It did. Very much.)
But when there’s rumors that the trio don’t hear about, it can become quite the problem.
Katsuki and Mina had been walking through the school, just enjoying themselves. Katsuki had both hands in his pockets and stood with pride while Mina had one arm wrapped around his and had her head leaning on his shoulder. To an outsider, they looked like the perfect couple by how they were walking.
A couple of low-life first years had seen the spectacle and took a few pictures. After all, who wouldn’t want to know that one of U.A’s big three was dating!
They had posted 3 pictures. One with Mina and Katsuki’s current position, one with Mina riding Bakugou’s back, and one final picture of Bakugou fixing Mina’s bangs. The pictures were posted on their social media, spreading quickly, and unfortunately made them look exactly like a couple.
-------------
Now, Bakugou is popular. He may not have the best attitude or be the nicest but by now, everyone knew he was all bark, no bite - unless you were being a bitch to the class. And his looks? That's what made him popular. Tied together with being U.A’s top three? He rose to the top in fame, not just in the school, but also in the media. So it made sense that he had a lot of fangirls. Everyone in class-3a knew how popular he was.
Izuku also knew this. Not that he liked it of course. He had fangirls as well, but between him, Todoroki and his Kacchan? Kacchan unfortunately had the most, which meant lots of confessions and drama. And everytime that happened, Izuku would force Katsuki to stay with him in his room and prove that he only loves him. (A/N: With cuddles and gifts of course. I know what ya’ll dirty minded people were thinking.)
Mina had been packing up her lunch by the fountain where she was sitting and was getting ready to get to class when a group of girls had stopped her. There were 3 of them in the group. The middle one was a basic blonde with blue eyes. The girl on her right was a redhead with brown eyes and a freckled face. The female on her left was a brunette with brown eyes as well.
Mina looked on either side of her, but there was nobody else, and she didn’t know these girls.
“Ummmm….can I help you?” She asked, confused.
“You're the alien girl from Class 1-A right?” The middle girl questioned. Mina only raised an eyebrow but nodded and motioned with her hands for the female to continue.
“You're such a slut.” the brown haired girl said, checking out her nails.
“EXCUSE ME?!” Mina yelled, putting a hand on her chest, as if to confirm they were speaking about her. Who were these girls, who had the nerve to come up to her and start to shame her like that?!
“They're not wrong.” The redead added, looking Mina up and down, “You're with a different guy everyday. Probably just getting witching the dicks everyday.”
Mina gasped, horrified. What the hell?! She was still a virgin, thank you very much! And that would only be given to her one love, Kirishima! When he had the nerve to confess at least.
“We saw the pictures of you and Katsuki from last week. So you’re dating him, huh? Then why were you clinging to the green boy or the redhead, hm? Just because Katsuki doesn’t notice doesn’t mean you get to use him! When he dates me, he’ll see what a real girlfriend is!” The middle girl said, narrowing her eyes at Mina.
Mina was utterly confused. Her? Katsuki? Dating? Cheating with Izuku and Kirishima?! WHAT?! NO!
“Uhh...I think you guys have the wrong idea-” Mina started to say, but a finger was placed on her lips and she was pushed to the ground by the girls.
“Such a slut! I bet you even make guys pay to use you!” The redhead laughed.
“Yeah! She probably did it with second years and people from our year as well!” The brunette said, cackling.
Mina felt like crying. There had been many times when she was thought to be dating a boy, but nobody had ever called her such names and accused her of cheating. It reminded her of her mother. The woman who was in fact a cheater, and left Mina and her father.
---------
Unbeknownst to the four females, two boys had been watching the encounter with gritted teeth and clenched fists.
Izuku and Katsuki had been taking a walk in the courtyard when they had seen the first years walk up to Mina. They had hidden behind some bushes where they could hear everything and by each second, they grew more and more angry.
“Come on Deku! Let me go beat their asses!” Katsuki said, getting up.
“Not yet Kacchan. We should give Mina a chance to fight back. If she doesn’t, then we’ll go.” Izuku told him, pulling him back down by the shoulder. But he couldn’;t deny that he also wanted to detroit smash the three girls into the earth.
As soon as they saw one tear fall down Mina's cheek, both males were instantly at her side, startling the bullies. They both had their arms crossed and were giving glares that could kill.
“A-Ah, Katsuki-kun!” The middle girl stuttered, her face growing red as she took two steps back.
“It’s Bakugou to you whore.” Bakugou told her, still glaring. The other two girls gulped and nervously darted their eyes at each other.
“Soo…” Izuku said, breaking the tension, rocking on his heels, “mind telling us what you were talking to Mina about?” He asked.
“U-uh…” the blond girl was speechless as she watched Bakugou help Mina to her feet and give her a handkerchief, “She’s cheating on you Kat- I mean Bakugou-kun!” She ultimately shouted.
Both males jerked their heads toward her.
“Cheating? I’m not even dating her dumbass!” Katsuki shouted. The girl's eyes widened and the brunette spoke up.
“B-but we saw the photos from last week! You were walking together a-and even giving her a piggyback ride!”
“So?! Did you see us kiss? No! Did we announce our dating? No! I’m gay idiots!”
The middle girl gasped. “Y-you can’t be gay!” She shouted.
“Ah?!” Bakugou said, raising an eyebrow, “and why the fuck not?”
“B-because I like you!” She said, closing her eyes as her face grew hot. She grabbed Bakugou by the collar and pulled him down for a kiss.
Izuku only saw red. He reached over and grabbed the blonde by her ponytail and tossed her to the ground, making her gasp.
“FUCK OFF!” He shouted. He grabbed her by the back of her neck and pulled her back up. “He. Is. Mine. We are dating, and have been for months. So, unless you want me to throw you across the yard, I suggest you run along.”
“Y-you’re lying!” The brunette said, pointing a finger accusingly.
“Am I now?” Izuku said, smirking. He turned around and wrapped his arms around Bakugou’s neck, kissing him deeply. Bakugou closed his eyes and placed his hands on his boyfriend’s waist as he deepened the kiss. Izuku opened one eye and stuck up the middle finger, making the girls storm off in rage.
The two pulled away and laughed a bit before being toppled over by Mina, who was crying in joy.
“Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!” She said, wiping her eyes. Izuku gave her a soft smile and hugged her as Bakugou ruffled her hair a bit.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever. Come on pity party. Let’s go. My perfect attendance is probably ruined now.” Bakugou said, getting up and pulling the two shorter students with him.
Mina and Izuku looked at each other and laughed, catching up with Bakugou.
“Sorry, Mr. Perfection!” Mina said, giggling.
“Why you!-” Bakugou lunged for Mina as she ran towards the classroom, not knowing he wasn’t actually chasing her.
Izuku grabbed Katsuki’s hand as they walked together to class, placing his head on the taller male’s shoulder.
“I love you” he sighed, smiling.
He felt Bakugou’s hand grip his own tighter.
“Love you too.”
