Chapter Text
The sun was bright in the soft blue sky, the screaming of cicadas in the heat from the sun burning down on the land under it.
The hallways inside of UA were loud, full of chattering and laughing from the other students, the one thing tamaki dreaded, socializing. It doesn’t help that the dark purple haired male has a fear of being in-front of others, especially speaking, and..doing anything in-front of others.
He slouched over, dropping his head to avoid the gaze of anyone passing bye, he held his hands in the pockets of the dark turquoise pants he wore for his uniform, he dreaded the day. He wishes he could just wrap up in 10 layers of blankets surrounded by a pile of pillows, then he would be at peace.
Just when he relaxed, he immediately tensed up at the muscular hand that had grabbed into his shoulder, the ridged fingers of the hand told tamaki all he needed to know.
“Hi, mirio.”
He said in an unenthusiastic tone, the bubbly blond had a staple grin plastered on his face.
“Heading to the cafeteria?”
The blond curiously asked his anxious friend, he always cares for the skinny boy.
Just as tamaki was about to speak, a third person ran up behind the two, the blue haired girl let out a giggle.
“Let’s head to lunch together! Alright guys?”
Nejire said happily, quickly following along behind mirio and tamaki, the two agreed.
Now that the three were together, the chatter that was normal kid talk seemed to be aimed at the group, of course, being called the ‘ big 3` your bound to get attention, attention tamaki doesn’t like.
He felt the prying eyes of students on the back of his neck, his hair seemingly standing up like a cats.
“You good tamaki?”
Mirio asked casually, gosh why was the walk to the lunchroom so long from their class.
“I’m fine…just- anxious. Like always…”
Tamaki mumbled out, he felt mirio tighten the grip on his shoulder, a reassuring squeeze, one that made the pressure of the watchful gaze on them seemingly disappear, tamaki gave a soft smile to the larger male, mirio grinning a bit wider back before heading back to his conversation with nejire.
Just then, up ahead the hallway opened up into the lunch room, tamaki stopped walking and looked back at the two. “You guys go find a table- I’ll get some food”
Nejire and mirio agreed to his request as they made there separate ways; tamaki gently shook his head as he made his way over to the lunch line, enjoying the way his shoes clicked against the tile.
Because of his quirk he always got double the normal serving, he was lucky enough he had a high metabolism!
He made his way over to the table his friends had saved for him, placing his tray down as he took a seat. Nejire looked over at his plate, pointing at some food on his tray with her chopsticks.
“Areeee you gonna eat that tamaki!?”
Tamaki looked over at her
“Oh! No it’s good! You can have it!”
Nejire smiled, moving over and squeezing tamaki in a tight hug, tamaki let out a wheeze. “Hhhhhooookkkaaaayyy- Neji- I can’t-. Breath.”
Nejire let go of him quickly with a smile, grabbing onto the food he said she didn’t not and placing it on her own tray, she half a look of happiness on her face, he loved seeing the two happy.

Tamaki let out a sigh as he walked into his dorm room, he took his shoes off and placed them by the door of his room, placing his school bag down before flopping down on his bed and curling up against the covers, his favorite part of the day, sleeping.
He crawled under the sheets finally, enjoying the comfort of the soft mattress under him and the many blankets and pillows that covered and surrounded him, He slipped into sweet unconsciousness.
After what seemed to be a minute he was awoken by mirio and nejire jumping onto his bed, causing him to let out a screech, followed by his face turning red in embarrassment.
“What are you two doing here..”
Tamaki grumbled out, just now realizing he hadn’t changed out of his uniform.
“SUPRISE SLEEPOVERR!!”
The two yelled, causing tamaki to playfully roll his eyes as he got out of the bed. “Alright, alright, let me get changed into something more comfortable then!” He said with a chuckle, grabbing some clothes from his closet and disappearing into the bathroom to get changed.
Tamaki let out a huff as he looked at his shirtless self in the mirror, he was so skinny. Sure a lot of the food he eats go to his quirk instead of his fat, but it would be nice to be a bit fatter.
He left the bathroom in a pair of shorts and a pajama shirt, only to see mirio and nejire in a large pillow fort the two built; tamaki smiled as he made his way over and crawling inside.
“Pillow forts? Really guys?”
He said jokingly.
“Oh cmon! You love them tamaki!”
Nejire spoke up, and she wasn’t wrong.
“I think we need make overs!”
Mirio said, holding up a hairbrush.
“Oooo!! We should totally to tamaki first!!”
Nejire offered.
“O-h..okay!”
Tamaki chuckled as he was pulled closer to mirio, his back facing him, watching as nejire ran off and returning with some black nail polish, the two quickly got to work with mirio brushing his spikey hair and nejire painting his nails black, he could get used to this all day.
Soon after they cleaned up from their ‘ make overs ‘ they all had a pillow fight before sitting down back in the pillow fort, talking about any school gossip or hero work.
Nejire and mirio laid back into the fort, finally ready to head off to bed. “Arnt you going to sleep too tamaki?” Mirio asked. “I’m not that tired.” Tamaki said in response, mirio’s response was wrapping an arm around tamaki and pulling him against himself.
Tamaki let out a blush as the two other quickly went to sleep.
What is this feeling, my stomach is fluttering, like I’m full of butterflies! But..I don’t hate it either. It’s rather soothing.. and..
Tamaki fell asleep in the arms of mirio.
