Chapter Text

Monoma Neito did not like class 1A in any way, shape, or form. That's why he was the first-and only-person to object to the idea of spending time over the break with a random student from 1A. Why would he even want to? They were just a bunch of narcissists who thought they were better than everyone! But on the other hand...YES! This could be the perfect chance to prove 1B is superior! Those bastards will get what is coming for them...

***

After MONTHS of being begged to help 1B get to know their fellow hero course class, Vlad finally caved and asked Aizawa.

“So…what is this ‘joint exercise’ you’re saying?” The black haired man raised an eyebrow.

“Uh…well I was thinking that over this upcoming break, they are divided into partners for the week..” The 1B teacher fiddled with the fabric of his hero suit, reminding Aizawa of a certain problem child.

“I’ll have to make sure my class is fine with it. But if they don’t mind then fine.” He sighed.

Vlad nodded and stood up from where he was sitting in front of the homeroom teacher’s desk.

“Oh, and one more thing,” Shouta stopped Vlad at the door.

“Tell your hellians that most of my students aren’t very physical and touchy people. I don’t want them to cross boundaries.”

Vlad gave an acknowledging grunt and walked out the door.

(Shouta’s VERY loud partner walked into the room a few minutes later)

***

“Woah, who pissed Shou-Shou off?”

“Zashi, I’m not in the !$%*@ mood right now, so would you kindly piss off?”

Hizashi blinked. Shouta blinked back. The cockatoo turned on his heels and left with an “Okee Dokee”-fully aware that if they pestered their husband even the slightest right now, they may not live to see another day.

****** 

It was Friday morning, the morning before the break. Aizawa pretended to sleep-as per usual- as the students filled in. Momo and Jirou were the first to walk in, followed by Iida and Uraraka. Five minutes later, Izuku and Shouto walked in, giggling about something. Bakuhoe was next to walk in, sitting right at his desk and laying his head down on it. The rest of the class quickly followed suit.

The bell rang as Shouta stood up and started the class off with an “ahem” and just like that, all 20 heads snapped to attention.

“So, I would like to start today off by asking you all a question,” he started.

“1B wants to spend time with you all over the break in pairs.”

Some students glanced at each other while others looked uncomfortable.

“ I understand completely if any of you have any concerns with this,” the 1A teacher reassured, eyeing the more closed off students subconsciously.

“So we are going to hold a vote to see if everyone wants to. We won’t if even one person objects.”

(POV switch to Izuku)

Izuku was GOING to say no..but with how many people raised their hands to say they wanted to. Although Izuku didn’t want to have a complete stranger-or “buddy” as they called it- that didn’t know their boundaries just suddenly barge into their life for a week…I mean, who would? But ... .Shouto said yes so…Izuku did the same.

“Okay…” Aizawa Sensei said slowly.

“I’ll tell Vlad King. You all have a free period while I’m gone.”

And with that, Izuku’s sensei left.

**** (YES ANOTHER TIME SKIP IM LAZY….. Oh yeah its the break now)

The bell rang dismissing all students of Yuuei, except for the two Hero Course classes. The teachers thought they should pair them up now.

“Alright…” Vlad said as he pulled out a clipboard.

“So the pairs will be..”

Izuku fiddled with their collar and quietly mumbled incoherent sounds, earning them an intense side-eye from Pony.

“Pony and Kaminari, Kendo and Bakugo, Yayorozu and Shiozaki..”

The list went on and on until…

“Tetsutetsu and Kirishima, then finally Monoma and Midoriya.”

Izuku looked at their new partner and gave a slight smile when they made eye contact.

(another time skip SHUT UP…..Monoma POV)

The teachers had decided that all the kids will be staying in the 1A common room, like the sleepovers 1B has had. As Monoma walked into the 1A dorm building, he noticed that the lights were much dimmer than in the 1B building. Do they not get enough power? Huh…. He also noticed bean bags, squish mallows, and even a basket on the coffee table labels “Feel free to take”. 

There was even a list of “rules” thumb tacked to the wall. It was then when he noticed how many people were already there. He had hoped to get there earlier than everyone else…But he guessed he just got distracted.

He spotted that Midoriya person he was paired with and went over to where they were setting up. It was a nice corner. It was by a window and more away from everything else…Monoma liked it.

“Hey…Midoriya, right?”

The greenette froze, but quickly recovered.

“Oh-Uhm-Hi” the shorter kid seemed nervous, but friendly.

“Hi…” Monoma said, as he started to set his things down and get comfortable.

It seemed like Midoriya was searching for something in his body language, but the blond boy ignored it.

When night came, all the 1B kids wanted to watch the new Pocket Monsters movie, but a bunch of the 1A students said no…Something about flashing lights and that red haired guy…Kirishima? He didn’t really remember-nor does he care to. So, they ended up watching a pre-quirk movie called Apollo 13. 

The one odd thing he noticed was Midoriya rocking back and forth while making quiet popping noises with their mouth. Some of Monoma’s classmates seemed to get annoyed for some reason. They said that it was “Interrupting the movie”.

“Can you stop?” Shiozaki spat, earning her a lot of mean looks from 1A.

“It’s distracting.” She added. It was clear she could NOT read the room at the moment.

The green haired student froze, and nodded, adding a “sorry..”. They didn’t do anything for the rest of the movie.

After the movie ended, Midoriya got up and said that they “had to go to the bathroom”. After Midoriya left, Uraraka-if he remembered correctly- stood up and said

“That wasn’t okay, Shiozaki!”

Shiozaki looked at the gravity girl, seemingly baffled about why Uraraka said that.

“Izuku can do that if they want!” she added.

“B-but-” The vinned girl started.

“He was disrupting the movie!”

“ THEY are allowed to do anything they want!” Uraraka snapped back.

Shiozaki started to speak again, when a Miss Midnight walked in with Hagakure in tow.

“Alright, what happened?”

Chapter Text

Where did Midoriya go? Monoma isn’t sure but it was definitely not the bathroom. He has been looking EVERYWHERE…but…THE DORMS! OF COURSE! Of course Midoriya is there! We’re not even allowed to leave the group! But they probably think that they can just do whatever! Kami, this is gonna be frustrating.

As he went down each room to find the greenette, this was getting more and more tiring. It would be so nice if-AHA! FOUND IT! Monoma knocked on the door a couple times and waited. He heard a shuffle of…something, as the doorknob turned to reveal the shorter student.

“Where have you been?!” Monoma asked abruptly, making Midoriya flinch ever so slightly. Kami, what was up with this kid?

“I was just-” Midoriya suddenly gets cut off by Monoma.

“You know we aren’t allowed in the dorms! We HAVE to stay with the group!” The blonde shouted. He may feel a *little* bad, seeing as that came off more rude than he intended.

“But-well-i thought that I-” Midoriya gets cut off once again by a hand on their arm and getting pulled out of their room.

(POV switch to Izuku so i can have an easier time writing this 😭)

DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT! WHY IS HE TOUCHING ME?! I HATE being touched! And the lights are too bright and the chatter down the hall is too loud and their uniform is itchy and I AM BEING TOUCHED. WHY?!

Izuku felt this horrible feeling in their stomach. This is too much. The only thing running through their brain is “too much”. TOO MUCH. Izuku pulls away from Monoma’s grip…or at least tries to. WHY WON'T HE LET GO?! STOP TOUCHING ME! Damn it! TOO MUCH. Damn it! I can’t talk!

Izuku had never felt so overwhelmed in their life. Their senses were in overload, they were being touched by the person they didn't feel comfortable with, their uniform was so uncomfortable it hurt and everything was too loud.

Their mind was racing, and they felt they could crawl out of their skin at any moment. Their heart was pounding, and they couldn't breathe. They let out a scream, covering their ears and started banging their head with their free hand, over and over, not paying attention to the pain or damage they might be causing themself. They were crying and screaming, hitting themself as well as trying desperately to get out of Monoma’s grip.

(ONTO TSU’S POV! <333333)

Huh? Does she hear something? Tsu could swear she hears screaming. Wailing even. She turns to Jirou who looks very distressed.

“Jirou? I hear something, do you?” The frog girl questions, putting a finger to her chin.

“Y…yeah..I think it’s Izuku. Crud. Monoma probably tried to pry them out of their room! Guys!” Jirou yelled to get her friend's attention.

“I think Izuku is having a meltdown! Bakugou, Tsu, Momo, come with me! Koda, go get your bunny!” Jirou instructed, catching 1B off guard and left in confusion.

“Wah-huh?” Testutestu questioned.

“Tell ya later *kero*” Tsu answered as she ran off with Jirou to help her friend.

As Jirou, Tsu, Momo, and Bakugou turned the corner, it looked like Jirou was right. There was Izuku, sitting on the floor, rocking as they hit their head and scratched their arms while they cried and screamed. Monoma on the other hand, stood a few feet away from the greenette, frozen in place. He seemed shocked, which makes sense. But Kami Tsu wishes Monoma tried to get help. 

Jirou told the 1B student to go back to the common room, and to just let them deal with this. The blonde hesitated, but eventually left. Thank Kami. He probably meant well but he would just add to the chaos at this point.

As Monoma left, Bakugou went straight to the light switch, and dimmed the lights. Momo created a weighted blanket and some noise cancelling headphones that she placed the headphones by Izuku, but did not crowd them, while she put the weighted blanket over their shoulders and gave them a squishy ball to hit, instead of themself.

After doing that they all gave Izuku space, but still in close enough proximity to where if something happened, they could help. About 2 minutes later, Koda showed up with his bunny-who was a retired therapy animal-that he adopted when they had moved into the dorms. He put the soft bunny down, as it made its way to Izuku, climbing into their lap.

---------- ---------------- -------------- ---------- -------

It took about an hour before Momo, Tsu, Jirou, and Koda made it back out to the common room, where everyone else from both classes were all in their own little groups, talking, some even teasing or giggling. Nobody really noticed their arrival…. good. That means no pestering or ignorant questions.  

The night passed by quickly, full of sh!ts and giggles. Before Tsu knew it, it was time to go to sleep. They all went to brush their teeth in groups of three per bathroom, seeing as there was only so much room in each bathroom. After all of them had changed and yada yada yada, they all split up to go to the spot they had claimed with their partners to sleep. Not everyone was there. Bakugou and Izuku were back at Izuku’s dorm. Thank goodness. Tsu was not ready for tomorrow. But she doesn’t have to think about that right now….all she has to think about right now is going….to…sleep……
