19 Class rep

-After school-

"Dude I saw the footage and you were so awesome!"

"I can't believe you managed to take us out so quick!"

"You fought like a champ!"

After finishing the review meeting, Aiden found himself surrounded by his classmates and was heavily praised.

'So much for not standing out.'

"It was nothing really, if not for Momo then I wouldn't have been able to take you down so quickly." He said humbly.

"Momo?" The class said in shock. "You're on a first name basis!"

By this point, a guy with short orangey-blond hair with a black streak in it appeared by his side and wrapped his arm around his shoulder.

"Guys, give the man some space would ya. You're suffocating him."

Realizing that they were indeed a bit too close, the students started to back away and went about their business.

"Now that they're gone." For reason the aura around the orangey-blond haired guy suddenly changed. "Would you be so kind as to tell me how you got onto a first name basis with that sexy girl on the second day high school."

"Huh?"

"Yaoyarozu! How'd you get on a first name basis already! I had a 6 month plan ready in order to get on a first name basis with any girl I wanted but here you are calling the hottest girl in class by her first name on the second day of school! Teach me!" He begged.

Aiden stood speechless.

'Is he serious?'

This was the first time he had even been in this kind of situation. What was he supposed to say? As an American he was used to calling people by their first name and found it weird that the Japanese referred to their peers by their last names.

"It kinda just happened..." He said weakly.

"Just happened?"

"Yeah..."

The two stood in silence for the next 10 seconds.

"...."

"...."

The silence continued and created an awkward atmosphere.

"What are you two doing?"

Looking in the direction that the voice came from, Aiden was surprised to find Mina staring at the two of them.

'Thank god someone finally spoke!'

For the first time since he met her, Aiden was happy to be interrupted by Mina.

Not waiting for him to answer, she grabbed him by the hand and formally introduced him to the rest of the class.

It was only after Deku came back that the pressure around him dropped.

Out of everyone in the class, the one he avoided meeting the most was the green haired boy. For some reason he got the feeling that the boy didn't belong and felt a near uncontrollable urge to stab him.

Waking up the next morning, Aiden got ready for his day at school. He got dressed, had some 'light' breakfast and then brushed his teeth before meeting Mina and Kendo outside of his house.

When they arrived at the school gates, the trio were suddenly surrounded by the press. Pushing his way through the reporters and cameramen. Aiden left Kendo and Mina to deal with them and hastily made his way to class.

They had Math and English in the morning. Luckily, it seemed to pass quite quickly for Aiden as his intelligence was quite high and English was his native language. Before they were let off for lunch, they had to decide who would be the Class Representative.

As soon as they heard this everyone in the class was jumping for the title. Due to not wanting to do something so bothersome, Aiden kept quiet and closed his eyes. Unfortunately the class decided to vote on the Class Representative and for some reason or another his name was top of the board.

"What the fuck!!" He couldn't help but curse. He had purposefully tried to keep a low profile (Failed) and not stand out, but here he was with 5 votes despite barely talking to anyone.

'Who the fuck voted for me!'

He didn't want a bothersome job like being the class representative. His goal was to get his license not gain any additional responsibilities. But since he couldn't reject the poll, he ended up becoming the representative for class 1-A while Momo became his deputy.

'Fuck.'

During Lunch, Aiden found himself on a table with Mina, Momo, Denki and Kirishima. Denki was trying to flirt with both girls while Kirishima was busy talking to Aiden about what it meant to be a real man. For the majority of the conversation Aiden mostly smiled and nodded like he did when he was around Mina and Kendo. It was only after the alarm went off that he felt like he was free from interacting with the others.

Once the alarm went off, the students seemed to lose self control and went into panic mode. Watching everyone charge to the exit, Aiden sat where he was and kept eating his lunch. It was only after he noticed that the others were still there that he stopped.

"Why aren't you guys leaving?"

"Hihi, like I could just leave my best friend behind." Mina smiled and hugged him.

Turning his head to Momo, he indicated for her to explain her reason.

Shrugging her shoulders she said, "If the class representative isn't panicking then why should I?"

Turning to look at Kirishima, he waited for his excuse.

"Real men don't run from danger." Was his answer.

"...."

Knowing that Denki was just here for the girls, Aiden didn't even bother to ask him.

Soon after Iida came to the rescue and calmed everyone down.

After finishing his food, Aiden got up and left with the others. They went back to class for their Heroics lessons.

Aizawa was there and he was waiting for all of them to sit down. He told them that they would be having some kind of special training.

"You're all heroes-in-training so we have to teach you not only to fight but to rescue people as well. You'll be dealing with natural disasters, terrorist attacks etc, so you'll need to know how to react in those situations. This is where Rescue training comes in." Aizawa tired voice spoke with his usual no-enthusiasm attitude.
