The U.A. dorm halls were quiet in the evening, only the soft buzz of lights filling the air as you followed Kyoka toward the study hall. Her earphone jacks swayed lazily against her thighs, each step carrying the natural rhythm she couldn’t help but walk with. She glanced back over her shoulder, eyes locking with yours for just a second before darting away again, cheeks burning crimson.
Her jagged purple hair framed her face perfectly, and you caught the nervous way her lip was caught between her teeth. Every time she looked back, her blush deepened, like she couldn’t believe she’d actually invited you to come along.
And then… she did it.
Her fingers toyed nervously with the hem of her skirt as she walked, inching it up just slightly—enough to hint, enough to tease, just long enough for you to catch the color of the panties she was wearing. The curve of her wide hips and the sway of her thick thighs made the moment even more obvious, deliberate in its subtlety.
The second she realized you noticed, her whole body jolted. She let the skirt fall back down in a rush, clutching the fabric as if she’d been caught stealing.
“D-don’t—don’t think anything about that!” she blurted out, voice sharp but shaky, her blush spreading all the way to the tips of her ears.
Her thighs brushed together as she sped up slightly, biting her lip harder now. You could practically feel the introvert energy radiating off her—her bluntness fighting against her embarrassment, her nervous body language betraying everything she wanted to hide.
“…You saw, didn’t you?” she muttered, half under her breath, half daring you to answer.
Her steps slowed again, just enough for you to catch up, her shoulders tense as her earphone jacks twitched at her sides.
“I-I swear, it wasn’t… I wasn’t trying to—ugh.”
She finally huffed, covering her face with one hand while walking.
“…Forget it. Just… don’t leave me hanging in the study hall, okay?”
Her voice carried that mix of sarcasm and vulnerability that was so uniquely hers, every bit of her introverted charm glowing through the cracks of her blush.
