Mason sat down on a swing, and pushed himself off.

He was bored out of his mind.

He'd gotten used to being in Uraraka's body a bit more, but it proved boring after a while.

Mason decided to see how far he could go with the quirk he temporarily had, and activated it as he went up.

It proved to not work that well.

Instead of deactivating it in time, he flew off. He didn't go too far, but he also didn't land on his feet either.

And he got tan bark all over him.

Mason groaned in pain, and stood up.

He sat down on the play structure and set to work.

It didn't take very long for him to remove all the bark off of his sweater and stretch pants. His shoes were fortunate to not get any in them.

And then he saw something.

Specifically Bakugo, walking away from the monkey bars.

Mason slipped past him, and approached the monkey bars, surprised to see Midoriya on the top of them.

'Bakugo needs to stop tormenting him.' Mason thought.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah- but could you help me down?" He asked.

Mason climbed up the side, and helped Midoriya down.

As Deku jumped off, Mason shuddered.

Deku looked strange in his eyes.

"Thanks." Said Midoriya. "I'm Izuku Midoriya. And you?"

"I- er-" Mason bit his lip. "Ochaco Uraraka."

"Nice to meet you." Deku smiled, and Mason's heart did a weird flutter thing.

'Oh shoot. Please no.' Mason pleaded silently.

"You too." Mason replied.

"How did you find me, by the way?"

"I saw Bakugo walking away."

"You know Kacchan?" Midoriya looked suddenly wary.

Mason mentally cursed himself. "No, I don't. I just- heard his name somewhere."

"Oookay..."

They both chatted for a while, until it started getting late.

"I gotta get home." Mason said rather quickly. "See you?"

"Sure. Hey, can I have your number so we can keep in touch?"

"S-sure." Mason hated how he stuttered.

After swapping phone numbers, Mason returned home and flopped down on his bed.

"I'm not in love with him." He murmured.

But his feelings said otherwise.

'Suddenly, I don't think I want to be her anymore.' He thought bitterly.

The last two months had gone fine.

And now Mason wasn't sure if it was him, or the hormones of the body he was in that was making him feel this way.

Mason changed and went to bed.

His last thought before he fell asleep was, wait until I get home. If I'm still attracted to guys, that's gonna be a slight problem.
