(ty to those who stayed :3)

(Y/n POV)

The rest of the festival was lovely; it was just a nice calm time. I watched class B's play and the beauty pageant, and after that, I, of course, had to check out all the cute food options that the other classes had prepared!

Everywhere I went I had at least one person call out to me, telling me how great I was on the guitar for our concert, I guess I underestimated how many people were watching I suppose.

By the time the sun had set my social battery had completely run out. I flopped down on the common room couches, curled up against the armrest.

"You doing good there (Y/n)?" Kaminari dropped down on the couch next to me.

"Mmhmm, just tired, the festival wiped me out..." 

"It was a ton of fun though right? God, I wish you saw Bakugo on that obstacle course, he absolutely smoked me!" Kirishima takes the single sofa chair, his shark slippers on his feet.

"Aaahh I wish I saw that, I know damn well Katsuki would've killed the competition," I say as the man in question forces his way between Kaminari and I.

"Damn, what the hell man, there's plenty of space..." The electric blonde grumbled as Katsuki scoffed.

"I'll take whatever seat I want sparky." 

"If I didn't know you I would've thought you just wanted to sit next to me." I'm teasing, but my voice is very tired.

"Oh, whatever! You fucking wish Boilingcold." Kirishima and Kaminari snicker at our bickering.

After some idle chatter, I end up getting really sleepy, so I make my way up to my dorm to knock out.

I lock the door behind me and quickly check my burner phone for any messages.

Huh, a few missed calls from Touya, is something wrong?

I dial his number and wait for him to pick up.

"Finally, you called me back (N/n)." He sounds mildly annoyed at me.

"Sorry, the school festival was on."

"Ah, that's fun. As much as I want to ask about it we both know we don't have that long," he replies, I hum in agreement.

"Hawks should be asking you to go back to work studies with him. I want to train with you more, and Hawks should hopefully help me out with that. I'm sure that you can be adamant in wanting to come see me again right?" He asks.

"Of course Touya, I do want to spend time with you." I quickly affirmed him, "And by training, what would we be doing?"

"Well, I have a few things in mind, but you're going to have to be open-minded and mentally ready (N/n)." His voice drops to a much more menacing tone, he scares me sometimes with his implications, but I knew what I was getting into, dealing with a villain.

Even if he's my most precious older brother.

"I'll be sure to be ready then"

"Great. Also, you'll want to keep an eye on the news over the next bit ok? With November ending, and the billboard chart coming out, I'm sure anything can happen."

Before I can ask more about what he means the call ends with a click. I sigh at his cryptic message and drop into bed. I never know what he has planned for me, but I would be lying to myself if I said I was dreading it.

Even though Some of my experiences with Touya have left me feeling awful and guilt-ridden, whenever I'm with him I know it'll be ok. I know that he'll keep me safe, and actually keep his promises.
