“Whoa! That’s so cool!”

Katsuki rolled to a stop and stepped on the edge of his skateboard, popping it up for him to grab it. He turned his head to see some guy with obnoxiously bright red hair standing on the opposite side of the chain-link fence that surrounded the skate park. He had on a gray and green letterman jacket with UA in puffy letters on the breast and his eyes were sparkling as he wrapped his fingers around the chain links. Katsuki clucked his tongue and rolled his eyes.

“S’nothing special.”

Letterman Guy jumped up and down from his spot across the fence. “No! That was totally cool! The way you went down the ramp and flipped your board in the air a bunch of times!” He let go of the fence to swoop his hand through the air, mimicking the motion of Katsuki riding down the ramp. “I’ve always wanted to ride a skateboard.”

“Guess you’re gonna keep wanting.” Katsuki let go of his board and stepped back on it, wheeling his way back over to a low bar to grind on.

Letterman Guy moved to the gap in the fence and walked into the skate park. He sat on a bench watching as Katsuki rode around on his board. The sound of his wheels clacking on the ground as he’d land a jump or a grind filled the air, but otherwise, it was quiet. The sun was starting to set, and Letterman Guy watched him wordlessly. It felt strange to have an audience, especially a stranger.

Katsuki came to a stop next to his bottle of water sitting on one of the other benches. He took a drink and cocked a brow, studying Letterman Guy. “Don’t you have practice or something?”

“Huh?”

Katsuki grabbed at the shoulder of his shirt, gesturing to the jacket. “Your letterman’s jacket.”

“Oh!” Letterman Guy looked down in surprise as if he had forgotten he was wearing it. “Practice ended a while ago. I was taking a shortcut back to my apartment when I saw this skatepark. I didn’t know this was here.”

“Mm.”

“Do you come here a lot?”

Katsuki furrowed his brows. Letterman Guy had his focus entirely on him and it was unnerving. “I’m here most days.” He hated small talk. It was the bane of his existence, and yet, small talk with Letterman Guy came easy to Katsuki. He sighed. “Do you want to try riding my board?”

“Really?” Letterman Guy jumped to his feet in excitement.

Katsuki held up a finger to stop him. “You break my fucking board; I break your legs.”

Letterman Guy gulped. “Got it.” He approached the board hesitantly, planting his foot on the nose.

“In the middle.” Katsuki pressed one hand to the small of Letterman Guy’s back, then used the other to shift his weight, pressing his hand to the guy’s thigh to slide his foot back to the middle of the board. Letterman Guy blushed. Katsuki ignored how cute it looked. “You need to center your weight on the skateboard, or you’ll wipe out every time.”

Letterman Guy nodded, and Katsuki released him. He stood in place, sliding the board forwards and backwards to get a feel for it, before deciding to try and move. Letterman Guy took a few steps forward then looked back. “How do I get on?”

Katsuki shook his head. “Whenever you feel like you’ve picked up enough momentum, push down into the board with the foot that’s on it, pivot so that you’re parallel with the board, and lift your other foot up.”

In theory, it was a smooth execution. In practice, Letterman Guy kicked the board out from under himself and took a nosedive. He managed to catch his balance before he hit the pavement, but he stumbled forward a few steps. “Wow, that’s hard!”

Katsuki shrugged and retrieved his board. “Takes practice, just like anything else.” He glanced down at the time on his watch and frowned. “I have to go.”

“Oh… Okay.” Letterman Guy looked and sounded disappointed at the news. He dug the toe of his shoe into the ground and glanced around the park. “Will you be here tomorrow?”

He had class at this time tomorrow, but he planned to skateboard in the morning. Katsuki preferred boarding alone, but he didn’t seem to mind this guy’s company. “I’ll be here at nine tomorrow.”

Letterman Guy’s eyes lit up again and he smiled brightly. “Awesome! I’ll come back tomorrow morning then.” He really didn’t have to, but something told Katsuki he wouldn’t be able to stop him. “Oh, I’m Kirishima by the way.”

Katsuki wet his lips and tossed his water bottle into his backpack before throwing it over his shoulder. “Bakugou.”

“See you tomorrow, Bakugou!”

Wicky's been skateboarding since elementary school. His parents don't know about it, because he hides his skateboard - something his uncle got him - at his friend's house. He's a major skater, and in high school he went to the skating park every day. He knows just about every trick, and he was a major fan of Tony Hawk and a few other skaters growing up.

Ollie only knows what a skateboard is because of A Goofy Movie and An Extremely Goofy Movie. He doesn't realize that, yeah, those types of competitions in the movies are actually a thing. He doesn't even know who Tony Hawk is until his junior year of high school.

He's running late to the meet and greet for the team, and Wicky is also late, and suddenly they're colliding.

Cue the rom com of Ollie teaching himself how to skateboard for Wicky without Wicky finding out.

Choso almost wants to laugh at how scared you look. One foot on the skateboard, refusing to lift the other. You had talked over what to do to skate, now you had to actually do it. He had a day off and Yuji was staying at Megumi’s, so it was the perfect time to.

“Come on, don’t be scared, just put your foot up with your other.”

You shake your head and cling to his shoulders.

“It’s gonna roll and I’ll fall.”

“You won’t fall, it won’t roll, I’m right here.” He slides his foot to keep the wheels from moving you. “Just step up.”

You take a deep breath and take the step, for some reason, it’s terrifying and you cling tighter to his shoulders. He moves his hands to your waist and holds you still.

“See? Didn’t fall, didn’t roll, and I’m still here. I’ve got you.”

You nod and take a breath, grip on his shoulders loosening.

“I think… I think we can move now.”

Choso nods, keeping his hands on your waist. “We’ll start slow, okay? Push forward with your foot. I won’t let go of you.”

You hesitate, so he tightens his grip where his hands are. “I promise, I’m not letting go.”

You take another deep breath and nod, pushing forward with your foot, when you move forward you panic a little and Choso makes you bend your knees.

“It’s just like the skating rink, all in the knees. Balance.”

You nod and hold his hands on your waist, pushing forward again and letting yourself balance as Choso walks along.

“There you go. I’m right here, not going anywhere.” He encourages. “When you’re more confident, push a little harder to go faster.”

You nod. After a few long and slow circles, you go a little faster to where Choso has to jog to keep holding you without dragging you back. After a minute or two of that, he speaks up.

“You think you can do it yourself now?”

“…Not that confident yet.”

“That’s alright, I won’t let go until you say so.”

“Thanks.”

After a few more minutes, you’re finally more confident and familiar with the feeling of circling the block, so you let go of his hands.

“I think I’m ready.”

Choso nods and slowly removes his hands from your waist, still jogging along in case you trip up or need to stop.

“You’re doing great!” He encourages again and stays as close as he can without worrying you about possibly running into him. After more circles, you look at him.

“How do I stop?”

Instead of answering, he swoops you into his arms. He holds you close and smiles. “We’ll work on that later.”

You stare up at him in admiration and surprise, heart fluttering and cheeks instantly flushing. “…thanks…”

He grins and sets you down, running to go grab his skateboard. “Wanna watch a movie and gave some dinner at my apartment?”

You nod, knowing he probably gets lonely when Yuji stays at a friend’s house. “What’s on the menu?”

He chuckles and walks with you back to the complex. “I was thinking about ordering wings.”

“Ooh, spicy?”

“If you want.”

You grin and follow him. “Order some dessert too.”
