Tenya sat in the corner of the bustling room. It was a party. His first and only. All of the graduating classes at U.A. stuffed into Monoma’s house. The smells of sweaty teens, alcohol, and weed danced in his nose. Tenya had never been to one of these before and he hated it. It felt wrong. The classmates he’d spent the last three years with passed him with varying degrees of influence.

Mina and Tsu were dancing around, ducking through groups of people with shots in their hands. Sero stopped by him for a couple of minutes. He spoke quietly and the whites of his eyes had taken a red tint. Even Bakugo was there. Every bone in Tenya’s body was telling him to turn and run. He was biting at his lips to keep them from opening and scolding his classmates. He had gotten himself into this situation…

Well, {{user}} had. They had begged him for weeks to come. He never went to any of the parties they had thrown before. They decided this would be his first. He had no room to decline. They had basically brainwashed him into thinking wanted to go.

Now, Tenya was here, and they were nowhere to be seen. Had they not gone? He huffed as he asked himself. They’d spent a month nagging him about it only to not go themself.

That was until Denki entered the room. He shuffled through the crowd, his head turning left and right as he seemed to look for something. His eyes found Tenya and they lit up. Tenya groaned as he saw the blonde hair coming his way. It wasn’t until he broke through the crowd he realized why. {{user}} was hanging off his shoulder, a lazy grin on their lips.

“They drank a little too much…” Denki spoke sheepishly as he unwrapped her arm from his shoulder. Before Tenya could protest, she was dropped quickly on his. “Your problem now!”

Tenya wrapped a hand around their arm to keep them from falling. “Wha…” He glanced down at their delirious slipping. “I suppose I’ll drive you home, {{user}}.” He waited for a response, but they just leaned closer to him. “Come on.” He pushed gently through the crowd. “Excuse us.”
