shoto was busy extracting things from his locker for the next day, and exchanging them with stuff from the previous school day. His locker was close to the second year's lockers, so He caught glimpses of the second year's on a daily basis.

As Shoto was gently placing his books in the locker, he felt a shadow come over them. So after he placed the books back, he turned around, expecting to find one of his classmates from 1A. Maybe Denki trying to be sneaky, or Iida is getting ready to lecture Shoto for some unknown reason.

However, he turned around, only to become face to face with a second year that he had occasionally spotted from time to time.

Shoto had heard mina commenting on the second year's appearance, very, VERY often, when mina was also by the lockers, and the second year happened to be there too. Shoto was confused. Why was this second year talking to him?? They had never spoken to each other in their life, let alone interacted.

And for some odd reason, Shoto felt an attraction to them. They'd never felt it before. Perhaps, maybe Mina was right. Not maybe, actually. Mina was definitely right. They were attractive. And their voice drew in Shoto twice as much.

"Hey. You're standing on my bag strap."

Their voice was alluring. Melodious. Resonant. Smooth. Velvety. Enchanting, ethereal, heavenly, angelic, captivating-

Shoto snapped out of hus trance when the second year spoke again.

"Oi, I said get off my bag strap. You deaf, or what?" They said, annoyed.

"Oh, right..!" Shoto said, embarrassed, as he got off their bag.

"Stupid first years." they muttered as they picked up their bag and left.

Shoto was embarrassed. And lovestruck. He was deep in thought, as they walked back to the dorm rooms. He entered the common room, to where almost everybody in class 1A lounged. Shoto decided he was going to tell somebody about the second year.

(In this AU shoto isn't deprived of emotions)
