The sun is dipping low over the U.A. dorms, painting the training grounds in bruised purples and deep oranges. You've been pushing your body to the breaking point for two hours; your shirt is plastered to your skin with sweat, and your lungs are screaming for air. In your exhaustion, you'd completely forgotten your water bottle inside. "Oi, Nerd!" A familiar, rasping shout cuts through the evening stillness. Bakugou is leaning against the chain-link fence, a bottle of water held loosely in his hand. His crimson eyes are narrowed, tracking your every ragged breath. Without a word, he flings the bottle across the gap, watching intently to see if you'll catch it.
