The Act Of Lorde
It was still like a dream. [y/n] managed to get into one of the top fashion Academies in her dream city. She also managed to get the air tickets at the peak season. She landed just in time to celebrate the new year with her online friend. Boyfriend, rather. She had been talking to him for over a year now. Usually, online friendships didn't last this long but, somehow, this one did, despite not knowing each other's real name or face. Well, the fact that they almost knew everything else about each other more than made up for the unknown details. And now, fate had a lovely treat for her. To follow her passion, she moved to her dream place, which happened to be the city he lived in! Could there be a better coincidence?
Her love life, which was limited to the virtual world was finally coming alive. She was not going underprepared or underdressed. She wore a plain but sexy [Your favorite color] dress, the color they had agreed upon and, he would be wearing a matching tie. To make it easier to identify each other in the crowd, he had offered to carry some orchids. [y/n] couldn't help picturing how he would look since then. Though she had affirmed to herself that she would meet him without any expectations in mind, she went to bed every night thinking about how their first face-to-face conversation might go.
[y/n] twirled around in front of the mirror, checking herself out for one last time before she left for the party.
It was a celebration that the university he attended arranged.
It's more like a prom, he had explained in his texts,
Since most of the hero course students got busy with internships and provisional license exams during the prom season, they never got to attend one. UA University took it upon themselves to let their students experience one.
[y/n] blushed at how she was going to a prom night when she had just turned old enough to drink alcohol legally.
Due to busy streets, [y/n] could barely make it to the party a few minutes before midnight. She held the straps of her dress, pulling it up and fixing it to reveal a tiny bit of cleavage. Confirming all her accessories were in place, [y/n] took a deep breath, and let out a sigh, to calm her nerves down.
I am just a [your favorite colur] tie and some orchids away from you, she thought and smiled to herself. She flipped her [your hair length/hair color] hair for power and walked in, more confident than ever as everyone around started counting down to the new year.
A few minutes earlier, somewhere in the same party...
"I bet Bakugou has not had his first kiss yet," Mineta smirked.
"You're too vocal for a midget, grape bastard," Kachan replied from where he stood. He was leaning against the bar counter, with one hand inside his pocket and phone in the other.
"Come on, Bakugou isn't the kind who'd be interested in chicks and stuff," Denki casually continued as he raised his hands, shrugging.
"Oh! that explains a lot." Mineta got busy putting a bunch of stuff from the past.
"Oye, Do you two want to be killed before midnight?" Bakugou warned, without looking up his phone.
"Then, prove us wrong by kissing someone when the clock strikes twelve." Denki Joked.
"Ah?" Bakugou finally looked up from his screen.
"Why should I?" He questioned, agitated,
"Because you love challenges?" Denki tried to back himself up.
"And having a midnight kiss is way more difficult than you think," Mineta spoke like an expert while crying on the inside.
"Oh, come on! You guys, Don't rile him up now!" Kirishima had excused himself from his girlfriend to check on his friend when he overheard the conversation.
FIVE!
FOUR!
Will I see him before midnight?
THREE!
It's just a freaking kiss. What's the big deal?
TWO!
Where is he!?
ONE!
There is nothing I, Bakugou Katsuki, can't ...
ZERO! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
[y/n] felt someone pulling her by the waist and then felt a pair of lips sucking upon hers. Though the kiss lasted only a few seconds, the force of suction was so high that she thought she would get blood clots immediately. The person let her go before she started revolting. She was in utter shock and had no idea what had just happened! She didn't get to see him clearly amidst the crowd and confetti around but, the image of those piercing red eyes glaring at her was burned into her memory. She was brought back to reality by a cheery voice.
"Hi! You must be [your online alias]"
[y/n] turned around to see the person she had been longing to meet all this while. His infectious smile with a hint of nervousness, the freckles, thick wavy hair. He was even more charming than she had ever imagined.
"'Hi! I am [y/n]." [y/n] replied with excitement, completely leaving the recent events behind.
"I am Izuku Midoriya and, these are for you."
We... [y/n] knew,
finally... Izuku knew,
met... it was worth the wait.
