Making it back inside the classroom turned out to be another struggle itself for some reason. This was probably because you were immediately bombarded with hugs as soon as you opened the door.

"MITSUKI!" Most of the girls cried out in unison, tears streaming down their faces as they clinged onto you for dear life. You found the moment to be quite awkward...cute and wholesome of course but still amusingly awkward.

"Hey-heyy girls i'm alright seriously there's no need to- Kaminari!? Why the heck are you crying!?" You had only just spotted the emotional boy huddled in the swarm of girls.

He wiped his teary eyes and tried to speak coherently through his sobs.

"I don't knowww i just saw everyone crying and it made me cry! Are you ok?! I'm so confused!" He wailed making you pat his head reassuringly.

You almost laughed at the sight but decided that comforting him would probably be the better option.

"You should keep yourself in check before you short circuit dummy." You lightheartedly teased.

"And yeah like I...well like I tried to say before I'm ok now really guys I just had a bit of an episode over some emotional baggage but its over with now...so will you all please stop crying?" You pleaded jokingly, cracking a warm smile at your friends.

Mina, being the first one of the girls to look up stared at you with puppy dog eyes sniffling slightly.

"You promise?" She asked with hopefulness in her voice. You chucked lightly and nodded.

"Of course. I'll even explain what happened if we can you know move further into the classroom." You nudged the group slightly to get them moving, fully knowing the whole time that you all had been standing right by the entrance of the door in this massive group.

Instead of breaking the hug circle like you had thought the girls and Kaminari all shuffled into the classroom like a pack of penguins huddling for warmth with you in tow.

You couldn't help but find the gesture heartwarming. The massive hug reminding you of the way that your mother used to wrap you in her arms when you were little.

'Don't start now Mitsuki you've already cried enough today dammit.' You scolded yourself.

Eventually making your way back into the classroom, you slowly were released from the hug as your friends stood around you with concerned faces.

Hagakure cleared her throat to make you aware of her presence before speaking.

"Mitsuki you know that we would never wanna hurt you right? What happened was totally our fault and we feel awful for making you uncomfortable." You couldn't see her expressing but you could tell from her voice that she felt especially guilty.

Yaoyorozu stepped into the foreground, placing a hand on hagakures shoulder.

"As the one who brought up the topic I will take full responsibility for my actions Mitsuki, we are all deeply sorry for offending you and even if you say you are fine now it doesn't excuse my ignorance of the situation." Yaoyorozu explained so well that you had a hard time disagreeing with her words.

"Girls...and Kaminari. I accept all of your apologies, even if you haven't said them I can see that you all feel super bad for what happened. The thing is that..."

You struggled to find your voice and looked at your friends instead to save time. Uraraka, Jirou, Mina, Tsu, all of them felt terrible which made you feel even more awful.

'I did that, if only I didn't make such a scene back then, if only I was normal!' Your hands gripped around your opposite wrist in frustration of your weaknesses.
