~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The dance was tonight and Kaminari was running out of time to find a date. Well, technically he couldn’t bring anyone from out of school (not that he knows anyone who would be willing to go with him) and he already asked all his girls classmates and all the girls in Class 1B and got rejected by all of them.
“But asking again sound promising, doesn’t it?” he tried
Sero shook his head at his friend’s lack of charm, “Nah dude, just don’t, it’ll be even more pathetic”
“Okay, ouch”
“It’s true though, who would wanna go out with you?” Kirishima then realized how rude he was when Bakugou snorted, “Oh I’m sorry I didn’t mean it like that”
“That’s fucking hilarious, he’s right though, no one likes you” Bakugou said harshly
Kaminari slumped his back and pouted, taking in the weight of his friend’s words. He should just give up, no one has yet to fall for him and judging how even his new classmates acted, no one will. He figured he should just wait for the dance and try to get one if he’s lucky.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The dance has been terrible so far. He hasn’t acquired a single dance while his friends either had a date or was asked to dance, one of them (Bakugou, obviously), refusing each girl who asked. Kaminari thought they were so lucky as he was rejected by yet another girl.
He trudged back to his snickering friends, feeling defeated, “So no one said yes, huh?” Bakugou mocked, taking a bite of another slice of pizza.
“Nope” he sighed
“Maybe you could ask someone to introduce you to someone. I was talking to Amajiki-senpai and Nejire-senpai came and asked me to dance” Kirishima suggested
‘He didn’t even introduce you, she’s the one who asked’ Kaminari thought, “No thanks” he said, a sad tone to his voice. His friends didn’t notice at all though as their attention was turned to Bakugou, who was saying no to another girl who asked. Sero had also left, going with Mina who wanted to make some guy jealous.
He huffed, grabbing a cupcake and walking away, planning to eat his disappointment. Just as he was about to take a bite, he felt a tap on his shoulder. He pulled the cupcake away from his lips and turned around to meet the pretty E/C eyes. He froze up at the presence of a girl he’d never seen before.
You tilted your head the the side, curled/straightened hair falling to the side the slightest bit, “Hey there, sorry to bother you but you got the last of the (favorite flavor) cupcakes and I wanted to see if I could finesse it out of your strong hands” you said, with a flirty tone to hopefully get the cupcake.
“No, no, have it” he said dejectedly, not even trying to ask for a dance at this point as to not get embarrassed by the most beautiful girl he’s seen.
You pouted and took the cupcake, “What’s wrong? Lemme guess, you’re the guy those three guys have been laughing at” you chuckled, not expecting his answer
He looked at the direction your thumb was pointing, Bakugou, Kirishima, and Sero, who was back from dancing with someone, “Yeah, that’s me”
Your eyes went wide, “Oh really? I’m sorry I didn’t think it was actually you” your lips tightened to a line, “Wanna talk about it?”
His eyes snapped up to look at you, were you serious? “Oh, are you sure?”
“Yeah, totally. Let’s go split this cupcake then dance” you offered
“Yes! Yeah, yeah, okay” he beamed at the fact that this girl asked him to dance. You lead him to the other side of the dance floor, near a wall that had almost no people near. You unwrapped part of the cupcake, putting it to him, “Here, have the first bite. I can’t actually half this so let’s share it this way”
He went red at sharing a pastry with a girl. It was technically indirect kissing. He shook his head, “You have the first bite” he insisted. It was your favorite flavor, so you shrugged and took the first bite.
“So, why are they laughing at you?” you asked experimentally, testing the waters in case they were bullies or something.
“They’re my friends, they’re just teasing me ‘cuz I’m too flirty to get a date or a dance with anyone” he said, shoulders slumped
“You seem like a nice guy to me” You commented as he used his thumb to wipe some frosting off the corner of your mouth, you blushing a little as you thanked him.
“Just ‘cuz I gave up trying to ask girls out”
“Well, here, let’s prove ‘em wrong” you said
“Huh?”
“Let’s go over there, in front of them, let me feed you this cupcake while we sway to the slow song”
He finally let out a smile, he was actually very cute when he doesn’t look as bummed out, you noticed. “That’s great!”
You smiled back and nodded, the both of you agreeing to enact the plan once a slow song starts “I’m Y/N L/N by the way”
“Denki Kaminari.” As if right on cue, one finally started, couples on the dance floor switching to swaying and his friend sitting it out. You looked to him and held your hand out, “May I have this dance?” you said with an accent. He laughed, damn his laugh was cute, and took your hand, leading you to the dance floor right in front of his friends.
You wrapped an arm around him, the other holding the cupcake, and he wrapped his arms around your wast, admiring the soft fabric of your dress. You saw him smirk at his friends’, you assumed, surprised faces.
You pushed it even further and held the cupcake to his mouth as he took a bite, you purposefully smearing it on the corner of his lip. He went to lick it when you whispered, “No, don’t. I wanna kiss it off” you said “If that’s all right” you added
He nodded and you leaned in, taking the rogue frosting in your lips and slightly poking your tongue out to lick it clean. You failed to notice his red cheeks through the colored lighting. You took a bite yourself, actually wanting to enjoy it.
After you both took alternate bites and finished the pastry, you went to throw it away. Bringing Kaminari with you, you giggled with him when he described his friends’ faces. “Okay, so now you’re gonna ask me out on a date and ask for my number when I walk you back so they can hear you... and maybe we can actually go out” you suggested, unsure
He froze up and turned red “Uhh sure! Let’s go?” he finally replied, stuttering, after the initial shock went away that a girl asked him out. You put your hand around his elbow and walked him back to the table with his friends there, gaping at you, who was still with him. He turned to you before you could reach them though and asked loud enough, “Oh yeah can I have your number? We could go out to lunch if you want”
You smiled at him and took his phone, entering your number, “Sure, lunch sounds great! You can text me the details and I’ll meet you tomorrow” you said, since it was a Saturday the next day. He smiled as you said your goodbyes, winking at him on your way back to the group of friend you came with.
He sat down next to his friends near the snack table who looked at him funny. Then the questions came rolling in, “How did you score a girl like that?”
“She’s that cute second-year who’s top of her class!”
“Damn, I didn’t think you would even get a chance with anyone”
“I saw her a while ago, she kept saying no to anyone who would dance with her!”
He quieted them down when he leaned in tho tell them something, “She’s the one who asked me” he said as a matter of fact-ly
They were shell-shocked, none of them thought he was charming enough or looked good enough for someone to have interest in him. They finally gave him a sarcastic apology when he jokingly asked for it, saying that they were wrong that he couldn’t get a girl and boasting about how they were all probably jealous that is was a popular second-year even.
Even if it was all planned out, he couldn’t deny his real attraction to you, it was different than what he feels for other pretty girls, you were genuinely beautiful, inside and out. You, on the other hand, felt the same, even if you just helped him one up his friends you had to admit you enjoyed his company, and even missed it when you left, but excited you would see him the next day on an actual, official, date.

Kirishima Eijirou:
“YNNNN”
First he draws out your name.
“YNNNNNN please!”
Then it’s the nicknames.
Pumpkin, sweetcheeks, babygirl, princess.
One time he even says “lover” but after a fierce glare and a not-so verbal tirade, he decided it was best to leave that one for the bedroom.
Once you make it past the first phase of whining and bitching, he moves onto his second, more convincing tactic.
Those goddamn puppy dog eyes
You’d think a manly man like Kirishima would refuse to stoop so low
Oh how wrong you are.
His bottom lip juts out and you can just see the smallest glimpse of his razor sharp fangs looking more pg-rated than ever as he pouts at you.
And once you look, you can’t go back. Like Medusa, he’ll have you stone-solid, unable to look anywhere else but into those eyes that make guilt pool in the pit of your stomach.
A little glimmer in his eyes once he knows he has you hooked as your glare falters.
And then
“...please?”
Damn him. And his muscular thighs under yours. And his immovable arms wrapped around your waist. But most of all…
Damn that fanged smile of victory.
Kaminari Denki:
Oh yeah. He’s gonna annoy the hell out of you.
Not so much like Kirishima with the pet names--as he’s certainly been on the receiving end of a vicious punch one too many times
(should have known “sugar tits” wasn’t gonna fly with you)
--but more so with the puppy dog eyes. Quickly, he realizes that is quite ineffective on you--or, perhaps it is just ineffective for him
Either way, as previously mentioned, Kaminari will beg for you to sit on his lap until your ears bleed.
One time he even short-circuited your headphones when you tried to block him out. A risky move, indeed, but somehow he didn’t manage to fry every one of your brain cells.
“YN!”
“Hey! Hey! YNNNN!”
“Hey YN, come sit on my lap!”
“Come onnnn, I promise I won’t do anything!”
“Okay, maybe I will, but I promise it won’t be anything you won’t enjoy!”
He was great at annoying you, and, to be honest, it worked most days. However, there are always those few exceptions where he truly just… gets under your skin.
“No, Denki! Now, let it go!” The words explode from your lips like a popped balloon, and in seconds you know you’ve made a mistake.
Hindsight, days like these almost always happen during your time of the month (yeah, yeah, TMI, I know), and that of course was part of the reason you were apprehensive about sitting on his lap.
But, shit, even the most heartless of people would give in to those misting eyes.
He’d go silent, glancing away with a small nod and an “okay” you could barely hear over a pin dropping.
And your heart climbs up your throat when that easy smile of his doesn’t return in seconds.
Give in. Always, always give in to a sad Kaminari.
“YN, you don’t have to-”
“Shut up,” you grumble, wrapping your arms just a bit tighter around his shoulders as you drop your face to his neck.
He stays silent. But, naturally, that’s just not Kaminari’s style. In seconds, you feel his normal grin return as his hands slither down your back, reaching just to where your body meets his lap.
“I told you,” he squeezes the muscle, “this was the best position for a butt massage.”
Fuckin’ perv.
Todoroki Shouto:
Ha
Pfft.
Pft.
Yeah right
Like you’re strong enough to deny this man that one time in his life he actually asks you to sit on his lap.
Don’t kid yourself.
“YN?”
“Hmm?”
There’s a hint of pink on his cheeks as his hands nervously run up and down his thighs. But buried deep, deep in his heterochromic eyes, so deep even you couldn’t see it, there’s a touch of mischief.
“Can you sit on my-”
Fuck yes.
“Fuck yes.”
In the blink of an eye, you’ve settled yourself into his lap like it was your own personal throne.
(If you had told him those exact words, he would have shown you another one)
His hands, shaking at first, settle on your shoulders, then on your hips, until finally he skittishly sets them palms-down on the cushion of the couch.
After a minute, he finally acknowledges your look of confusion and shrugs a shoulder.
“I don’t know what to do with them.”
Good lord.
Glancing at the ceiling for just a second, you take a deep breath for patience before grabbing his hands and wrapping them around your abdomen.
“Put them here,” you mumble, avoiding his gaze and making a move to spin on his lap and press your back against his chest.
Except--
“Fuck.”
You freeze, not moving an inch (which seemed to be complete irony considering his situation).
“Don’t move like that.”
Ha
Pfft.
Pft.
He shouldn’t kid himself.
Of course you were going to move like that.
And now, you were going to move like that all night long.
Midoriya Izuku:
Not in a million years will this boy ask you to sit on his lap. Even if you told him to ask you, he’d still burn brighter than a tomato before stumbling out an excuse and sprinting away.
But you knew.
After a while of being together, you began to see his ticks. His little hints that he wanted you to come closer.
And then just a little closer.
And then so close that you were practically (literally) sitting right on top of him.
Yeah, you knew his ticks. Midoriya is a shy boy, if not a boy who refrains from asking things of others that may or may not cause them to go even slightly out of their way to help him.
But you knew.
Interestingly enough, when he wants you to sit on his lap, it’s not anything major.
First, he licks his lips. Not in an “I wanna taste you” kind of way--more like a “Hey, you got any spare Chapstick?” kind of way.
Then his hands will twitch. And he’ll lean back in his seat and stare at you.
*at your thighs
And finally, his legs will stop bouncing (because, really, when do they ever do that?)
His mouth will open and close repeatedly like a fish, almost like he’s trying to say your name but he’s suddenly forgotten how to speak.
It’s awkward looking, really, and it certainly did take you a while to learn exactly why the hell he was looking at you so.
But then--hallelujah--it finally clicked.
And then you’d rise from your seat, make your way over to him, and plop down into his lap, ruffling his hair and pressing small kisses to the freckles dotting his cheeks.
“If you wanted me to sit on your lap, you should’ve just said so,” you grin. A small whirl of contentment conjures in your chest when he rubs his hands up and down your sides.
It takes him a minute to summon the words he so desperately wants to say, and as that time passes, he peppers his own kisses along your chin.
Then they come to him.
“Thank you, baby.”
