Pony was settling down with some hot chocolate and a manga. It was a pleasant setting with snow falling outside, cuddled up with a drink and relaxing while reading. She loved the weekends.
Other members of class 1B were in the common area and relaxing with each other. A few were in good spirits but a sense of lowness over the previous day's loss hung largely in the air.
She wondered if Midoriya was doing better as well as Kendo. Then again, why worry in a perfect setting?
BANG!
The front door burst open and Monoma came running in panting like he had seen a ghost.
"Whoa whoa, what's going on?" Mikasa asked, startled by the noise and his expression.
"......Kendo......."
Everyone immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at him, fearing the worst.
"What about her?"
"Is she alright?!"
"C'mon man tell us!"
"......SHE'S BEEN WITH MIDORIYA!!"
There was silence before someone confusion began spread.
"Wait, what do you mean by been with?" Shiozaki asked.
"They've been dating all along!" He explained.
Despite his quirk, TetsuTetsu turned to stone and tipped over. Some of the girls had their hands over their mouths while a few others shrugged. The rest did nothing.
"Uhm are you sure Monoma?" Pony asked cautiously; there was no telling if the secret was still on.
"They were literally making out in recovery girl's ward!"
There were whoas and wows being said.
"Holy crap! That's.....kinda hot." Mikasa said while blushing.
"Are you crazy?! That's like an act of betrayal against us! She might've set us up to lose that last round yesterday." Monoma continued.
"Calm down. I think you're overreacting a bit." Shishida said.
As Monoma continued to rant on, Pony got up and headed back to her room. She noticed that the flowers and letter in front of Kendo's door were still there, neatly laid.
"I'm jealous," she thought.

Kirishima and Kato were sitting on the couch playing a video game with Bakugo watching. Mina, Toru and Jiriou were sitting at a table chatting about anything while Momo was making a hot lunch.
"So wait, why didn't you use your slip space to land directly onto that electric dragon's back in the first place if you could move it?" Kirishima asked Kato.
"I can't move the portal; I can only change the size of it. Or collapse it into a really big boom."
"You mean you can blow up either end?! Why didn't you do that to clear the spores instead of running around like an idiot ?!" Bakugo shouted.
"Well for one thing I hate pulling a 'pillar of autumn' because it would've hurt yer'all. Second I like a challenge." Kato replied happily.
BZZZ!! BZZZ!!
Kirishima's phone received a text message. It was from TetsuTetsu.
"Bro I need to talk to you now! Are you here?"
"Yeah I'm here. Come on over."
Kirishima gave the controller over to Bakugo. A few seconds later TetsuTetsu arrived with frozen tears on his face.
"Dude have you been crying outside ?" Kirishima asked.
"Y-y-yeah."
"What happened? Did you not get a good score on the assessment?"
"*sniff sniff* n-no! Its Kendo!"
Everyone in the room turned towards him in surprise.
"Midoriya beat me to her!"
"Beat you?"
"They've been dating all along! Now I can't ask her o-o-out...."
"Shut up with the whini- wait the nerd has what?!?" Bakugo yelled.
"Monoma says that they were making out in the nurse's office!"
Mina and Toru immediately began squealing in excitement.
"Details, NOW!" Mina said excitedly.
"Bastard," Bakugo muttered.
"Shouldn't we give them some privacy, ribbit?"
"Damn I never thought Midoriya would get a girlfriend, let alone it being Kendo" Kirishima commented.
"Midoriyas got a girl?!" Mineta cried.
"Will you all please be quiet? I am trying to study!" Ida said while storming in.
"Sorry but we just found out that Midoriya has been dating Kendo from class 1B," Kato replied. "As you can probably tell, everyone is taking notice."
"I see, I hope he doesn't forget his academic duties first though!" Ida said while chopping the air.
Yes it seemed like most people were happy however TetsuTetsu was not the only one upset. The other one silently slipped away from the crowd to cry alone.

Pony pulled out her phone and scrolled through the contacts list. She nearly went past Kendo's but clicked it.
"Hi; Monoma told everyone he saw you and Midoriya kissing. I think it's not a secret anymore."
A few minutes went by before she got a response.
"It doesn't need to be anymore. See you later."
