[MY SWEET CREATI~]
Momo Yaoyorozu. She's my girlfriend, and I love her, and she shares the same feeling. Sure, we live completely different lives, with her being uber-rich and a heroine-in-training, attending U.A. High, and me being a non-rich kid who attends a regular school, but despite the differences, we always make time for each other. Speaking of making time, the two of us were out on a date, enjoying ice cream at a parlor, which was her choice.
"This is delicious." Momo's a big fan of sweets, but among the top ten is ice cream. "I'm glad we chose to get ice cream."
"It's the best around." I like ice cream, too, but not as much as Momo. Honestly, I wanted to see a flick, but Momo insisted on getting ice cream, and there was no way I was going to argue with her...not that I'd win anyway. It didn't help that she was giving me puppy-dog eyes. Those eyes...
"Sooo..." Momo begins, playing around with her spoon. "What've you been up to lately?"
I rubbed the back of my head. "To be honest, Mo', I haven't done much." I'm an average person who does average things, thus nothing special happens in my life. "I mean, sure, I passed that test I was telling you about, but that's really nothing compared to what you have to deal with every day." I often wonder what goes down in U.A. High. From what Momo tells me, it's stress-inducing. "And yourself? How's everything going for you?"
"Eh..." Momo shrugs. "It's the same thing over and over again." Momo heaves a frustrated sigh as she leans against my shoulder, seeking comfort. "I knew U.A. would be difficult, but I didn't think it'd be that difficult. Then again, the path to being a hero is rarely easy, and U.A. makes sure of that."
U.A. High is famous for its ability to produce exceptional heroes, with All Might serving as a shining embodiment of their success. From what I've heard, the teachers don't pamper the students, especially Eraser Head, and expect them to give their all and then some. Overall, U.A. is hardcore.
"If I'm not dealing with tests, then I'm dealing with my pervy classmates." Momo likes her classmates, although some of them can be overwhelming for her. One student that springs to mind is Minoru, who does everything he can to carry out a pervy plan on Momo. Momo told me about Mineta, and I instantly despised him. If I could, I'd give him exactly what he deserves, but Momo wouldn't want me to do that. "He's a real pain in my butt."
"If you want, I could-"
Momo covers my mouth and interrupts me right in the middle of my sentence. "Nope," she says with no room for argument. "As much as I enjoy seeing pervs get their just deserts, I don't want you to be the one to hand out justice. You're not that kind of person, and I hope you never will be."
"I'm not trying to be, but it irritates me to think of others perving on you and acting like they have no home training," I retort. "It's wrong."
Momo understands how I feel and leans against me. "I know, but I'll deal with whatever problem that comes my way." I admired Momo for many reasons, but one of my favorite things about her was how she could handle herself in any situation. "I'm not going to let a midget get one over me."
"This girl..." I couldn't help but chuckle at Momo's determination. Every day, I thanked Hirokoshi she was in my life. "You're a national icon."
For the remainder of our date, Momo and I do things that appeal to our interest, like hitting up the theater or going to the arcade. Even though Momo isn't much of a gamer girl, she's remarkably proficient at the arcade games. Maybe she had a secret side to her? Nah, I would've known of it.
After a while, Momo and I return to her home. "I had a lot of fun, today," she says with a smile on her face. "I really needed this after last week."
"That tournament U.A. had is still getting to you?" Frowning, Momo nods. U.A. had a big tournament for the students. I watched the entire event...including Momo being beaten by that Tokoyami kid in her class, and what's worse, she barely had a chance to shine. One of the reasons, I took Momo out was to cheer her up. "Look, forget about the tournament; it was a waste of time anyway. Sure, you lost, but everyone does at least once in their lives, and you shouldn't let it get you down." I take Momo's hands. "Failure is inevitable, but how you deal with it is what really counts."
I've never considered myself a motivational speaker, but I'm surprisingly good at offering advice. Momo wipes tears from her eyes as she hugs me tightly, thanking me for my kind words. I loved her with all my heart, thus I'd do anything to make her happy, including solving any issue she had.
"You're too sweet," Momo says, hugging me tightly. "I'm lucky to have you."
I smile, wrapping my arms around Momo and pulling her close. "I feel the same way...my Creati~" Creati is Momo's unofficial heroine name. The name is derived from her Quirk, which allows her to construct anything she desires. If you want my opinion, it's weird, but it's a cute kind of weird.
Creati's a cute name.
Everything about Momo is cute.
