Bakugo POV

It was never so difficult for me to maintain my usual scowl expression.
But I couldn't really blame myself for having a hard time looking unhappy while feeling like thousands if not millions of butterflies are flying in stomach. My legs felt like they were made of jelly and my heart was pounding in excitement every time I thought about my green-haired soulmate telling me that he likes me back. And since I couldn't stop thinking about it, I spent the whole weekend feeling like I'm about to fall with every step I took.

Stupid legs.

In an attempt to find something that will distract my mind from the mess it was in, I started to do my homework.
I walked, unwillingly, to where my school bag was laying on the floor and forced myself to take all the notebooks I needed out of it.
Then, came the hard part- concentrating.

I took a pen, opened my math notebook and tried to understand what exactly I needed to calculate in order to solve the first question.
Luckily, it was pretty easy (at least in my opinion), so I continued to the next one.

For the first time in my life, I was happy I had homework to do.
Who knew it could be such a convenient distraction from unwanted thoughts?
Until then I saw homework only as a complete waste of time, especially when I knew the material.
But now I was grateful for every single question that kept my mind off of the green haired boy who made me more flustered and embarrassed than I have ever been in my entire life.

The whole soulmate thing was new to me, I never really thought about it before. I only focused on my training and on getting accepted to UA, everything else seemed unimportant.

That, probably, was the reason why it overwhelmed so much when I first discovered the meaning of the green light I saw around Deku.
Thinking about it for the first time... Feeling those strong, weird feelings for the first time...
It was so sudden, it felt so unreal.
If I had been waking up one day in my bed to find out that everything was just a very long detailed dream - I wouldn't be surprised at all.

And the fact that I couldn't control it, I couldn't control any of the feelings that filled my body with energy and made it feel like it was flying...
It was annoying. Annoying. Annoying. Annoying.
But in a good way.

I sighed, turned on my calculator and checked whether my answer was correct or not.
However, I only managed to solve three more questions before I spotted a movement in my window.

Normally, I would barely notice such a slight movement. And even if I did, I wouldn't pay any attention to it.
But that was an exception, because from the corner of my eye it looked like... 
A green... hair, perhaps?

It was the very end of my desperate attempts to focus on my homework.

It took only a second for all the annoying, fuzzy feelings I tried to ignore to come back and flood my body all at once.

I immediately turned my head to the window, not stoping to think about what the hell is he doing here now and why didn't he knock on the front door like a normal person.

I didn't care about anything, I just wanted to see him.

But it took less than a second for the excitement I felt to disappear and be replaced by a heavy, depressing void when I realized there was no one outside my window.
It was just a tree.

Stupid fucking brain.

I cursed and turned back to my notebook, feeling embarrassed and angry and relived but also very, very disappointed.
