February had begun and with it the cheesy decorations and the excessive sale of the classic gifts for Valentine's Day. Teenagers and young adults would take this opportunity to declare their feelings to the people they love. Others just wait to see how many gifts they will receive.


And the students of the UA Academy were no exception to these things. The girls were getting together to talk about who they would give chocolate to, who among them would get the most gifts, and saying that Uraraka would probably give Deku chocolates. Which always made her blush and nervous.


But our protagonist was on the other side.


"The only use of this stupid holiday is to take advantage of the offers and buy white chocolate chocolate!" Bakugou exclaimed sounding annoyed.


Kirishima smiles. "Ah. Maybe white chocolate is your favorite?"


"Kacchan always says the same thing about Valentine's…" Deku comments with a faltering smile. "...But still he was the guy who got the most stuff in our school."


"Lucky bastard." Minera said with his voice full of envy and venom when he saw how popular another boy was when he had never received anything on Valentine's Day.


"What the hell did you call me!? You little pervert!" Bakugou was ready to blow up his classmate.


While a good part of the boys focused on preventing their explosive partner from destroying the room, others just drank tea quietly. One of them is Kouji Koda, the boy who talks to animals. As usual he had remained silent while the others spoke. But the boy's shyness now had a justification.


After celebrating his birthday on February 1, Koda gathered all the courage and courage he possesses to write a love letter. It took him 5 days to write the letter because he always stopped because of grief. But finally he had the letter. A pink envelope sealed with a cute bunny stamp. Now there was the enormous problem of how to deliver the letter. The days had passed and it was almost Valentine's Day.


"Stop making a scandal in my room!" Sato exclaimed for his companions to calm down. "And why did we have to meet in my room!?"


At that moment the alarm of the small kitchen oven that Sato had in the room sounds, indicating that the cookies that he had prepared were ready. They all looked with interest making it clear the reason why this was the place to meet.


“W-misfortunes…” Sato put on gloves and took out a tray full of cookies.


"Could it be that you confess to some homemade candy?" Kaminari asked with an amused smile. "After all, the girls like your cooking."
Sato set the tray aside to let the cookies cool. "I wouldn't even know how to go to confession." He thinks for a few moments. “In my school they always did it at the beginning of class, practically in front of the entire classroom.”


Koda almost spits out the tea from him. He would be unable to do something like that!


“Without shame to show his feelings? That's pretty manly!" Kirishima said excitedly.


"Stop yelling fucking hair!" Bakugou yelled. "And don't talk nonsense! Surely it was girls who did that mostly! It has nothing to do with being manly!”


Kaminari nuzzles his chin with a smile. “I prefer something more stylish. Arriving in a cool and flashy outfit to a meeting place to confess.”


Koda thought about that. But he didn't have anything that was that way. He had always gone for simple clothes or cute things.


Deku! How would you declare yourself? The blond boy questioned.


The green haired student was surprised by it but he thought about it. "I… I suppose I would arrive with my hero outfit and chocolate."


Midoriya-kun! That is an inappropriate way to wear our hero uniforms!” The class president, Iida, scolded his classmate. “And the appropriate thing is to dress in a formal and elegant way! Showing that you are serious! he added.


Koda imagined both. He had a suit to wear on elegant occasions. And the hero outfit gave him a little more confidence and courage.


Mineta smiles and narrows his eyes. “If it is to deliver a letter to a girl, you have to leave it in her underwear drawer. And if she comes to declare herself, I prefer her to be in a stripper outfit." He declared the most perverted boy in the city.


This time Koda did spit the tea out of him by imagining himself doing such obscene things.


The bedroom window was opened and Minoru Mineta was thrown away by a large number of the boys present. The horny little guy crosses the sky screaming and wetting his pants leaving a rainbow behind him. Mineta would be ok? Nobody really cared about that.


“That horny little cuckold!” Bakugou yelled in annoyance. "How the fuck is he not in a pervert jail!?"


"That was very inappropriate, even for him." Tokoyami spoke for the first time.


Koda nods repeatedly as he clears the table from the tea he spilled.


“Though now that the topic has come up…” Kaminari looks up for a few moments. “If a girl comes to propose to me… I would be excited to see her wear something cutie.”


The boys started imagining their own scenes in their heads of how that special someone would come to them in an adorable outfit. They all blushed. But no one said anything against it either. Some couldn't even hide a smile.


Koda swallows. Looks like he found something to work on his statement when delivering his love letter. Now he would just have to work up the courage to do it.


The boys continued talking and eating the cookies Sato made until it got late. The boys separated and went back to their respective rooms.

Koda widened his eyes. In front of him was the entire classroom, even people from other classes were gathered there. Nobody was talking. They actually all seemed to be looking at Koda.


Koda closed his eyes and his body moved automatically, holding out his hands with the love letter he had written. “Y-You… I like you a lot!” The young hero's apprentice said aloud, a voice even he didn't know he had.


Instead of an answer several laughs were heard. Koda opened his eyes and saw people pointing while laughing. A voice stood out from the laughter. "Is that your idea of cute?"


Koda then looked at himself. The boy gasped and blushed deeply at seeing himself wearing a Pussycats outfit, the red version to be exact. The air running through his bare legs was what made him react and push his skirt down in an attempt to cover himself so that no one would see his underwear.


So the person took the letter and tore it up. "Did you really think that I would accept being with someone like you?" That person laughs. "Look at you, you're peeing!"


Koda didn't need to look, he felt something warm running down his legs and then the sound of drops against the ground. The young hero apprentice couldn't take it anymore and ran towards the door of the classroom. Only to end up inside once more. Koda continued trying to get out but every time he walked through the door he found himself back inside the classroom with everyone laughing at him and the person who rejected him.

"Wahhh!" Koda yelled as he sat on his bed. He was panting and shaking slightly covered in sweat. Koda looks around noticing that he was in his room. The night light was on, his stuffed animals gathered in the corner and his pet rabbit was now awake as well. “W-was it a…a nightmare?”


Koda slowly calmed down and his breathing became normal. Although when he did, he noticed that it wasn't just sweat that he felt. The student blushed intensely when he saw that there was a sizable wet spot on his bed. He covers his face in embarrassment and gives little yells of embarrassment. Which were kind of adorable.


Koda got out of bed and turned on the light in the room, clearly seeing the size of the accident on the bed and in his bunny shaped onesie pajamas. The first thing he did was take off those wet clothes, at least no one would see him naked in his room. He calmed down his pet, the scream had scared him, so Koda whispered to him a bit and gave him a piece of carrot. With that fixed the student faced his biggest problem, the soggy stuff. He looks at the clock, noticing the time and thinking that everyone is sleeping, he decided to go wash everything.


Obviously Koda changed into clean underwear and a T-shirt. The idea of walking around the dorm naked caused him problems. He collected everything in a basket and quietly went to the laundry room. Koda wasted no time putting everything in a washing machine and turning it on. That the place was made to muffle the sound of the machines was never so well received as it is now.


The wash cycle would take a while so Koda decided to go get a glass of milk to help his get back to sleep. He walked to the common area and turned on the kitchen light so he wouldn't trip over a chair or something.


"Huh!?" Turns out Koda wasn't the only one out on a night raid. Fumikage Tokoyami was in the refrigerator with a spoon in his mouth. The crow swallowed the food and took out the spoon. “Koji? What do you do here at this time? And.. huh…”


Both students blushed remembering their respective outfits. Koda put on a yellow T-shirt with a cartoon lion and underoos with cute forest animals. Tokoyami has a black tank top and black briefs with red hearts. Both boys covered themselves and looked sadly at the other.


"...No one needs to know about this." Fumikage said with a serious expression with a blush on his feathers. Koda nodded in agreement.


Both were left without knowing what to do next. In addition to avoiding the gaze of the other. Fumikage was the one who broke the awkward silence. "I guess you're having trouble sleeping too and you came here looking for something." Koda nodded slightly. "Hot milk?" The raven received another nod from the shy boy.


Tokoyami took it upon himself to heat up 2 glasses of milk in the microwave. So both boys sat together at the table, even if he hadn't said anything to do this. Both were silent, being the quietest in the class it was difficult for a conversation to arise between them. Although they slowly got used to each other's presence.


Koda plays with his fingers wanting to say something. He then turns to see Tokoyami, only to find that the young raven did the same. They both averted their gazes.


"You two make me desperate!" DarkShadow exclaimed as he pops out of the user's torso. “There are 2 young people at dawn on Valentine's Day, alone in the kitchen and wearing underwear! Say something!" Darkshadow crossed his arms after scolding them both.


Koda blushes and covers his face. Tokoyami had an annoyed look but his face was red. "Inside, now." he said dryly. The shadow sighs in annoyance and goes back inside its user. The raven sighs and scratches his uncomfortable cheek. “Sorry, Darkshadow has always been a loose mouth. I hope you don't mind."


The shy boy slowly uncovered his face and then shook his head. Kota swallows slightly. "...about...Valentine's..." He got the attention of his classmate. “You…will you see someone?”


Tokoyami took a moment to make sure he heard those murmurs correctly. He scratches the back of his neck looking for the right words. "No... the truth is that... I haven't dared to ask my special someone for anything..." The crow notices the surprise in the other boy's expression. "It makes me nervous to be rejected... I guess many feel that way when they try to declare their feelings." Tokoyami was surprised to see Koda nodding very quickly and looking with interest. "But... it's good, right?" The shy boy tilts his head slightly showing confusion at those words. "What I mean is that it's something you care about, so you're nervous it might go wrong."


Koda stared at that. Somehow that made him feel better. The two boys continued to talk, well Tokoyami was talking and Koda was mostly nodding with interest. But this was the way they had to communicate. Koda understood the crow's little explanations and he understood what the shy boy felt when he saw the slight changes in his expression and movements.


What started as an accidental and embarrassing encounter had turned into a 'chat' for these young people of few words.


But the dream began to be present in both soon after drinking the milk. Koda was nodding slightly with his drooping eyelids.


Which Fumikage noticed right away. "I think it's time to go back to bed." Koda made an adorable little pout but nodded.


They both went up to the boys' rooms. Their respective rooms were one in front of the other, so they continued together until they reached them. They both shared a smile, having enjoyed the time together.


Before they parted ways Fumikage spoke. “Do you mind if we have lunch together tomorrow? I would like to talk about more things with you.”


Koda smiles and nods. "I would like to." He said with the most confident voice he's had in his entire time at the hero academy.


"Brilliant!" Fumikage said a little louder than he would have liked. He cleared his throat at his and looked away slightly. "Good night, rest well."


"Good night too, Tokoyami." Koda said speaking normal again.


Both of them then entered their respective rooms.




As soon as the doors closed Drakshadow appeared. "So you'll do it tomorrow? You must do it. I think this is your best chance to do it.”


Fumikage Tokoyami turns to see the box of chocolates that he had bought, which is light blue in color and has a drawing of a rabbit in one corner. "I think... I can try." He said with a slight smile as he walked over to his bed so he could sleep. "I just hope Koda doesn't get too surprised…I wouldn't want to scare him by arriving with a box of chocolates and a confession."
 


Koda fell asleep as soon as he lay down on the bed. He returned to having the dream from before. Only this time he was acting confident as he declared himself to Fumikage, in front of the entire class. Koda was also still dressed in the Pussycats outfit. Which the raven boy in his dreams loved.


At least in his dreams, Koda was capable of doing everything for the boy who had fallen in love with him, the one who understood him better than anyone.
