Bakugo POV

Why is my soulmate talking privately with that stupid half and half boy?

I felt my heart shrinking in pain as the desire to burst into their conversation filled me.
Every cell in my body itched, my legs were ready to walk out to them. My hands were ready to punch Todoroki's face and my mouth was ready to use some words that my mom will probably hit me if she hear them.

I couldn't hear what they were talking about, and that was the most annoying part.
Todoroki's face darkened as he talked, he looked angry and determined, but I could see sadness and frustration in him too.

What the fuck are they talking about?

Rage was starting to build inside me, I couldn't bare seeing them together, alone, talking about a secret topic I wasn't able to hear.

And on top of it, what angered me even more was the fact that while Todoroki kept taking, Deku's face softened.
I tried to concentrate and sharp my hearing in order to understand what words made Deku's face look like that.
His green eyes were full of sympathy and worry, the fear he felt a minute ago was completely gone.

I felt my heart squeezing in a great pain as if someone was stabbing it with a knife.
Suddenly, I realized what I was feeling.

Jealousy.

I'm not jealous.
I denied the obvious truth.
I'm not fucking jealous!
I fought the thoughts which ran wild inside my head.
I'm not jealous! Why would I be jealous? I don't care what he is doing, where he is doing it and with who he is doing it!
I don't care at all!

I was sure that staying there and watching the two of them keep taking will make me go crazy at the end (if it didn't already).
So I pushed myself away from the wall I was leaning on and walked away from the place.

The third and last event was about to start.

***

I tried my best to avoid looking at Deku while we were standing in front of Ms. Midnight who showed us the battle arrangement.

My first battle was against... Uraraka?
I should be careful, if I let her touch me even once- I might find myself flying in the air and loosing my first battle.

And...
I couldn't stop myself from searching Deku's name.

His first battle will be against someone named Hitoshi Shinso...
Oh! I think he is the tired looking guy with the purple hair.

And if he'll beat him, his next opponent will be... Todoroki Shouto.

SERIOUSLY?

I glared at Todoroki angrily but he didn't seem to notice. He was lost deep in his thoughts.
He was thinking about something which was obviously disturbing him.
Well, he can do whatever he wants as long as it doesn't concern me...
...
Or Deku.

As that thought crossed my head, I realized that this sport festival wasn't doing any good to me.

"While you wait to you turn, you can watch the other battles from up there" said Ms. Midnight and pointed to the seats which were assigned to us, the students.
