A new day arrives upon a crisp morning. Children are heading out for their education with their friends while the adults are heading towards the destination of their occupation.

Now, in Class 1A of UA. Katsumi Bakugou is sitting in her chair in an empty classroom. Her thoughts as wild as an animal, thinking about how to fix her broken relationship with a possible friend.

KATSUMI'S POV
"What am supposed to do!?!" I told myself. But what am I supposed to do? Apologize? No! He was a child back then so the grudge should still be there. But he doesn't show any hostility towards me yesterday. Also, what's with the obvious riddle?! "To fix broken chains, prepare to moult ". SERIOUSLY!?! He is saying that I can fix this relationship but I need to moult? Probably using butterflies as the reference. So I need to change, eh? Alright, this will be easy.

OUTSIDE POV
As she finished collecting her thoughts, the rest of the class was filling the room slowly. She thought of a way to get her and Midoriya to be alone. An idea popped into her mind.

Class started with their homeroom teacher appearing behind the desk at the front of the class. He asked the class to pick a class president and Vice President in their ways.

The class decided to pick by voting. They all were to write the name of the person they want to be president but agreed that they cannot vote for themselves. They gave their votes to Iida since he seems to be the one to care about fairness the most.

The votes were in and Izuku was number one with behind him being Iida and Yaomomo. Izuku didn't want to be the president. He was busy with so many things, being a president was quite troublesome. Iida asked if anyone has any problems with the decision. Izuku raised his hand.

" Yes, Izuku?" He asked. "I don't want to be president," Izuku told him. "Ah, but we still need a president?" Iida asked again. "Then you be the class president" Izuku responded as if it was obvious but to Iida it was surprising. "Are you sure?" He asked for confirmation."Yes" was all Izuku said. And with that, the president and Vice President were picked.

Classes after that were proceeding as usual. When lunch came, everyone exited the classrooms except Katsumi. When the coast was clear, she put a folded price of paper inside the Izuku's pencil case and left for the cafeteria.

As she went to find a place to sit, she spotted Izuku sitting alone. She decided to test something. She sat across from him. He took a glance and continued eating. They ate in silence with Katsumi taking a few glances here and there.

Lunch ended, students headed towards their respective classes and class continued.

During Science class, Izuku found the paper in his pencil case. He put it in his palm and grabbed a pen with it. As he was taking notes, he opened the paper, put it on top of the page he is on and moved his fingers in a way that it looks like he is writing while taking a few glances at the front.

He read the paper. He folds it back and put it in his pocket. He continued with the class until the school has ended.

AFTER SCHOOL
Izuku is seen walking towards the front gate with Katsumi waiting for him. He grabbed her shoulder. She throws a left hook. Izuku grabbed her fist. "Come on, let's not drag this any longer." He said before letting her hand go and stepping back.

Katsumi took a deep breath.

With 90 degrees bend, she yelled "I'M SORRY IZUKU!!!". This shocked him slightly but was grateful that she took the note to heart. As she stared at the ground, a hand was put on her head. " Apology accepted, Kachan," he said as he strokes her hair a bit. She started at him with tears appearing. She went in for a hug. He hugged back.

They walked home together until he split and head to the train station. "Wait! Where are you going?" She asked him. "My house is this way" he answered back. "O-Oh... w-well can't you meet my parents?!" she asked him with a face going pinkish. He thought about it, he agreed. He told her to lead the way since he can't remember it.

"Hey, did you save me?" she asked suddenly. "Yeah" he answered as he was browsing his phone. "Why?" she asked again. "Trauma" he answered. This shocked her. She decided not to push it any further.

They arrived at the Bakugous house. It was the same as it was 9 years ago. "Hey, old hag!! I'm back!!!" She screamed. "Welcome back brat!!!" she screamed back.

IZUKU'S POV
Well, they must be close. Still, it feels nice talking to somebody else after a while. "The bath is ready for you so get in there already brat!!!" She yelled. Kachan went to take a bath I presume. I entered their living room and turned on the news.

My luck today is quite high it seems. Kachan's mom doesn't think that there is anything strange with her tv suddenly turning on. Mr Bakugou doesn't seem to be around right now too. Guess he's working overtime?

Anyway, after an hour. Kachan came back down and dinner was ready. I should probably make my presence known." Excuse me." I appeared. Miss Bakugou was frozen. Her chopsticks were falling to the floor. "Do you mind if join for dinner?" I asked her. She snapped back to reality and jumped for a hug with tears flooding out. We fall to the floor. I pat her back after a while. She stood and offered me a helping hand. I accepted and sat in an empty chair.

She served me some food. I thank her. Then before I knew it, questions were being thrown at me by both females at the table. I answered them with the same fake story that I put on my background information. Neither of them questioned it. They are where I live currently so I just answered that I lived somewhere quite far from here. She offered for me to stay for the night but I refused to say that I can head back easily. She still pushed for me to stay. Considering the stubbornness of this family I gave in and agreed.

After all that, they all went into their rooms. Mr Bakugou will likely come in at midnight and be shocked seeing a man in his house. So how do I deal with this?... I got it.

OUTSIDE POV
Izuku is leaving through the front door and by hopping from rooftop to rooftop, he arrives at the train station and head back to his apartment.
