Chapter Text
“You’re not buying anymore candy", Tenko says not taking his eyes off the ramen packet he was examining when he heard the crinkling of what he was sure to be a packet of gummies landing in his cart. “What nooooo Ten you don’t get it I NEED candy to survive!” Toga whined dramatic as usual. Tenko sighs as he puts the ramen in the cart and looks at her, “you’re gonna end up spending all your allowance on candy and then you won’t have any left to hang out with your new friends”, this seemed to work on her as she took a few packets out of their cart and back in their place.
They continue walking through the grocery store while Toga gushes about how excited she is to go to their new school and meet all the new people. They recently had to move here because of their father’s work, Toga is gonna be starting her first year while Tenko his second year of high school. He wasn’t surprised about toga being excited to make new friends being the social butterfly she is, Tenko didn’t have her social skills but he never had a hard time making friends somehow. In fact in his last school he was friends with pretty much half the class. He was worried things won’t be same here though, who knows if people here would be as friendly as they were there. He was taken out of his thoughts by toga waving a hand in front of his face.
“Hello?!? I’m talking to you ten!” He blinks, seems like he zoned out again, “sorry…what were you saying?” “I was asking how I should do my hair, I wanna make a good first impression!”
“I don’t think you need to worry about making a good impression, you’re great at meeting new people”
“You’re not wrong but putting a little extra effort isn’t a bad idea” She says browsing though hair products, her eyes stop at the several boxes of different hair dyes, her eyes lighten up and Tenko knows from that expression that she’s up to no good.
“Tenkoo why don’t we dye your hair!”
“W-what?! Why my hair? I thought we were talking about you here”
“I mean we’ll figure something out for mine at home but come ooonnn it’ll be a nice change! New school new hair!”
“I don’t know toga..” he says looking at the hair dyes, he’s never dyed his hair before, it’s always been the natural black…a change wouldn’t hurt? He looks around at all the colours and decides to buy a pale blue dye, whether he’s gonna use it or not is a problem for later.
“And.. done” Tenko says as he pins the last strand of hair in place. “Do you like it?” He asks toga as she looks at her hair in the mirror, after coming home and putting the groceries in place they had decided to prepare themselves for the day to come tomorrow, they ironed their uniforms, did any prep work they needed to do for their bentos, packed their backpack with new books and notebooks and then went on to do more “fun” preparations. Starting with toga’s hair, she tried to do a few hair styles from the Internet but didn’t like any of them until Tenko offered to help her. Tenko had careful hands and he was surprisingly good at doing intricate hair styles, he and toga had about the same length of hair so it wasn’t hard for him to work on it, he did her hair into a pair of pretty space buns and made it look more messy and chaotic by taking out a few strands carefully, he knew neat hairstyles didn’t suite toga, they just didn’t feel like her. Toga had the biggest smile on her face and that was answer enough.
“This is why you always end up with a harem ..you’re great at everything!” Toga says teasing him. She liked to call his friends his “harem”. Tenko always blushed furiously at this, “toga I don’t have a harem!” He yells at her annoyed. “Not yet” she says with a sly smirk. Tenko decided to not honour her with a response and look away where the box of hair dye catches his eye..
For the first time in while Touya arrives at school earlier than required, it was Shoto’s first day of high school and so he had basically dragged Touya with him so Touya could show him around. They were standing near the huge entry gate of the school where most students met up with their friends before school, he could see a bunch of new faces presumably first years like Shoto and a few familiar ones like the student council nuisance Keigo who was always on Touya's ass about his “code of conduct" and “rebellious nature". He pushed Shoto towards a group of first years telling him to socialize and decides to discreetly stare at Akaguro senpai. Touya had a tiny puppy crush on his senpai ever since he’d seen him on the soccer team with his broad shoulders and strong arms. He was obviously not going to do anything about it really it was more admiration than attraction but he could use the eye candy once in a while. As he’s focused on Akaguro or “stain" senpai he notices that his gaze was focused in the direction of the entry gate. Touya follows his gaze to see that stain wasn’t the only person staring in that direction, Keigo and a few more students were all looking in the same direction. All the gazes were focused on a pair of students walking to school. Both of them were new kids, a short blonde girl with sharp features and yellow cat like eyes was clinging to a tall skinny guy, he was about the same height as Touya, maybe a bit shorter. Touya didn’t have to wonder why so many people were so enchanted by the sight of this guy.
He was already mesmerised at the visual of a person so beautiful, his skin was pale like a porcelain doll, his light blue hair falling to his shoulders and framing his face perfectly, a few of the waves covering his face. He had scars around his eyes, one more prominent than the rest on his right eye. There was a similar scar on left corner of his lips and Touya had a strong urge to kiss it along with his little pointy nose. But above all were his eyes, deep red eyes which could make anyone weak in their knees.
Touya needs to talk to the guy.. needs to know how those eyes are so lively..
Fate must be fucking with Keigo because there is no way in hell that his childhood crush, his gay awakening, the guy who he crushed on for all his elementary school years until he had to move away because of his parents, was here in front of him, walking into his high school looking even more pretty than he remembered. His mind was going a mile a minute, does Tenko even remember him? But above all he was really happy to see his childhood friend. He couldn’t bring himself to approach Tenko at the moment though so he just stared like an idiot.
Tenko felt the stares directed at him as he and toga walked into the school, both of them were new so that was to be expected but he did feel a bit anxious. It was easier to ignore the stares as he just focused on toga who was excitedly rambling about how the school looked, about how his new hair looked and some cute girl she saw while clinging to his arm like she usually does. After the entrance ceremony both of them walked to toga’s class ‘1-A' and then tenko headed off to his own class ‘2-A'. He stood outside for a second took a deep breath and walked in with a small smile.
Touya was sitting on his assigned desk which was luckily right in front of Jin and pretty close to spinner too, at least he'd be able to annoy his friends during classes.
Class was just about to start when the pretty guy from earlier entered the room, he meekly entered greeting his classmates with a small smile and found his assigned seat right beside Touya. Touya must have done something right in life to have such great luck. He realises he’s not that lucky when he realises that half the class seems to be having similar thoughts as him. Keigo who was sitting on the other side of tenko was trying to be attentive to what Aizawa sensei was saying but Touya caught him glancing at tenko during the class. Same could be said about Miruko but she wasn’t even trying to be subtle. Spinner was the subtlest but Dabi could see his friend slightly blushing and looking at tenko sitting right in front of him. Tenko turned out to be a very attentive student , he was writing down every single thing Aizawa would say with a look of clear focus. No one wanted to interrupt him so they were all waiting for lunch to get an opportunity to talk to the bluenette.
But that opportunity was taken away from them by a very chaotic blonde who ran into the class as soon as the lunch bell rang and literally jumped on tenko. “Ten I have so much to tell you!! Let’s go have lunch in the courtyard!”. Tenko struggled to keep his balance as he was dragged out of the class by the little gremlin, “toga slow down-".
Jin, spinner, Touya, Keigo, and Miruko were all left quietly staring at Tenko’s empty seat. All of them wondering the same thing. They all looked at each other and seemed to have a wordless conversation. Somehow all five of them ended up putting their differences aside and now were having lunch together.
“so anyone know who that girl was?” Miruko says opening her bento. All of them look at each other wordlessly.
“wasn’t she the girl who came to school with him? She was pretty clingy in the morning too" Keigo adds.
Touya didn’t pay much attention to the girl in the morning because he was too preoccupied spitting poetry about tenko but now that he thinks about it she was definitely the same girl.
“do you think she’s his...girlfriend?” spinner asks with a light blush. All of them frowned at the possibility.
“you’re telling me the prettiest guy I’ve ever seen is straight?” Touya says sounding extremely offended.
“I don’t think he’s straight... look" Jin points at Tenko’s backpack sitting on his desk, it’s a plain black backpack but it’s embellished by a bunch of pins, there’s some anime, manga and video game pins but amongst them is a rainbow flag and a bisexual flag pin. Their faces light up at seeing the pins.
“Guys the point still stands, she could be his girlfriend” spinner reminds them, “let's see, they both transferred here together, came to school together and now they’re having lunch together, she’s VERY clingy and he seems to be comfortable with that, oh and she calls him ‘ten'" Miruko says counting every point on her fingers.
“I mean maybe they’re best friends? Ten-kun and I used be close too when we were little, these things can be platonic" Keigo says and everyone looks at him shocked.
“wait you know him!?!” they all ask accusingly as if he just murdered their whole family.
“we used to be friends in elementary school but I moved away so I haven’t met him in years" Keigo explains.
“you still get an advantage” Touya huffs.
“Why don’t we go and check on them in the courtyard, maybe we can get some idea about their relationship by seeing how they interact” Jin suggests trying to help this chaotic group of simps stay together. Everyone agrees on the plan and finish their bentos quickly.
“LET’S GO BITCHES" Miruko yells as they all make their way to the courtyard. Magne just watches the whole thing going down while sipping on tea ,perhaps these idiots will make this school year interesting.
The five of them make their way to the courtyard and freeze at seeing the spectacle in front of them, tenko was sitting on a bench in the courtyard with his cute smile and toga was laying on the same bench with her head on Tenko’s lap animatedly talking to him. Both of their bento boxes (which were matching) were sitting near toga’s feet completely empty. Tenko was attentively listening to toga’s rambles and commenting on things here and there. They couldn’t hear what they were talking about but just seeing toga’s head on his lap was enough to put a frown of Touya’s face, along with hawks, Miruko and spinner. While they were drowning in their misery the bell rang announcing the end of lunch break.
They were all in a sour mood in the rest of the classes and and it got so much worse when the classes for the day ended and toga came in again and took tenko with him. They saw both of them leave the school just like they had entered , toga clinging to his arm and them walking together. Both of them were new so they hadn’t joined any clubs yet. But these five still had to go for their club activities after seeing that. Touya thought maybe seeing akaguro senpai would make him feel better as they were both in the soccer team but apparently his puppy crush on his senpai ended the second he laid eyes on tenko. After being done with his club activities he waited outside the school for Shoto. He saw his brother coming out with a group of kids, there was a kid with green hair who kinda looked like a broccoli, then a sweet looking girl with short brown hair and an uptight looking guy with glasses. Well he was happy Shoto had made friends considering his limited social skills. Shoto and Touya walked home as Shoto told him about his friends, he slightly blushed as he talked about the broccoli guy and Touya noted that and locked it in his mind to tease Shoto later.
The next day came and the simps met at school , their mood turned sour again as they saw tenko and toga come to school together again. “I swear to god why is she so clingy?” Touya says with a frown.
“I mean if I was dating him I’d be clingy too" Miruko says shrugging.
Lunch is worse today as toga and tenko decide to have lunch in their class instead of the courtyard, toga sitting on Tenko’s desk and eating from their bentos. “they even have matching bentos" spinner whines while the others are too busy glaring at toga.
The bell rings and Aizawa sensei enters their class. He sees toga still sitting on tenko's desk and sighs, “toga go back to your own class and leave your brother alone for once". The five of them freeze at hearing that as toga apologises to sensei and leaves, Magne sees their faces and starts cackling.
They all look at each other, same thing going through their heads “ SHE’S HIS FUCKING SISTER!” . Aizawa just looks at these idiots confused as to what is happening in his class.
