Aight, so… this is my piece for the BNHA Writer's Fest, written for @ellectric-blue. I wanted to give you the best quality writing I could manage with my knowledge and time crunch, so I chose to write for Yaoyorozu. I've been a little bit preoccupied lately with a lot of family issues since it's that time of year, but nonetheless I was able to pump this out for you just in time. Happy Holidays to you!

It was getting to be that time of year yet again; Christmas was just around the corner.

Many hours were always dedicated to shopping for friends and loved ones, this year being no exception. You had gotten to know your current friends over the course of the past few months, especially living at the dorms together with them for at least half that time. Going through such hardships together with your classmates solidified your bonds with one another and made this Christmas feel special to you.

The lot of you decided to host your own Secret Santa of sorts, which was fun and all, but you ended up drawing a name you… didn't exactly expect or desire to draw. Momo Yaoyorozu was more than just a fellow classmate or a friend; to you, she was your crush. To say that you were absolutely terrified was an understatement. She was rich beyond measure, something that you couldn't compare to in the slightest.

Yaoyorozu wasn't much of a materialistic girl thankfully, but it was hard to point out her exact interests and put them to heart. As far as she was concerned, she bought things out of habit and would rather better the economy than use her quirk and imbalance it. Maybe she would like something that you made yourself?

Instead of dawdling on the thought, you instead decided it might be nice to learn how to crochet. Homemade gifts were the best, because it shows how much you care, the time dedicated and the overall process being most meticulous. A scarf would look lovely wrapped around Momo's neck (and possibly around your own as well), a winter coat look sounding appeasing to you, and crocheting one couldn't be all that hard… right?

Your time limit made everything all that more stressful, as well as trying to hide the supplies from your fellow classmates, especially Ashido. If she found out, she would have an absolute fit and press for more information, which you couldn't have at all. That's why you did shopping by yourself, picking out the softest yarn at your disposal. The colors you'd chosen were a compliment to her hero costume: crimson and silver. They both look good on her regardless, but you thought it would be nice for a potential outfit.

Smuggling the materials into the dorms without getting caught wasn't as hard as you thought it would be, given that everyone was preoccupied with one thing or another. However… you did catch a glimpse of Yaoyorozu, and— well, she's walking over here now. Shit.

"Oh, Y/N? Everyone was wondering where you had gone!" The smile she had on her face sent butterflies through your stomach. She glanced down at the bag in your hand which you tried your best to hide from plain sight, but was too wide. "You went to the store? What did you buy?"

"Oh, ah… just a few things, nothing special…" You had to get away from her, and quick. Her eyes continually glanced at the bag, which you kept moving around to block from her sight. "Anyways, what are you up to? Not doing any shopping?"

"There's no need! I purchased my present the day I drew a name!" Momo had her hands folded in front of her body oh so characteristically of her as she spoke proudly. Of course she would have purchased something already. "It was quite easy for me to choose for the recipient of my Secret Santa gift."

"Oh… well, I'm still thinking of what to get mine."

"I'm sure whatever it is will be amazing, Y/N. You're such a thoughtful person, and I know whoever receives your present will absolutely cherish and adore it."

There she goes again, saying something so beautiful that it makes your heart melt. She always seemed to know just what to say to put you to ease, but it made you feel even more pressured to make your gift as perfect as possible so she isn't disappointed. Momo seemed to notice the awkward silence you gave her, blushing a bit out of embarrassment.

"I hope I haven't said anything wrong, Y/N."

"Oh, no! Not at all! I'm just thinking about what you said… thank you, Yaoyorozu. I'm going to start working on my gift now."

And with that, you gave her a small wave before going to your dorm room and practically throwing the yarn to the side. She almost caught you red-handed, but thankfully you were able to change the subject quick enough before she had the nerve to peek in your bag.

Opening the lid to your laptop, you searched up a tutorial on how to crochet a scarf, and thank goodness there was one that popped up immediately that seemed to be reliable enough to follow. You almost forgot that you bought the needles as well (because how would you have been able to crochet without the needles). Grabbing all the materials from the bag, you started to work on your hopefully wonderful masterpiece for Momo.

—

Weeks had passed since that fateful day, and with every new talent came bumps in the road. You had failed at least five times trying to make the scarf the way you wanted it to turn out, even while following the tutorial. Yarn was wasted and you even had to make a second trip to the store to purchase even more of it.

But your hard work finally paid off, and in front of you sat your finished creation. Each thread was carefully crocheted together perfectly, and you couldn't wait to present it to your crush. Putting it in a box and wrapping it up, you didn't put your name on it, instead writing Your Secret Santa on the tag. You didn't forget to put Momo's name on it, though.

Going down to the first floor, the tree looked marvelous and grand in the middle of the lobby. Presents were already adorning the underside of the tree, while bulbs and lights alike decorated the branches. A star was placed on the top, shining brightly and looking over you and everyone else. You remember putting it up with your friends vividly, as if it just happened yesterday. Iida and Yaoyorozu did most of the clean up when it came to the decorations, all of them being strung in the same places on the tree. Moving them so it looked nice was a must.

And there she was, Momo Yaoyorozu, dressed in some of the most Christmas-like articles of clothing she owned and sitting alone. Placing your present under the tree, you swiftly took a seat beside her, a blush evident on your cheeks.

"Merry Christmas, Yaoyorozu." She turned to face you as you spoke, a bit surprised since she wasn't really paying attention to the seat beside her before now. She returned your greeting earnestly, eyes closed and a wide grin taking up her face.

"Thank you, Y/N, and a Merry Christmas to you too. Are you excited for the Secret Santa present exchange?"

"Yes, I am. I can't wait for a certain someone to open my gift and hopefully smile just like a kid when they see what it is."

"I see. I'm quite confident that my gift with have that same effect, but I'm not sure… maybe I overdone it?" Momo opened her eyes, and for a second you saw a hint of doubt in her expression. "Gifts aren't always things you should buy, that much is for certain. Sometimes I wish Mother and Father would stop purchasing them and be a tad more creative."

"Do you get the same things every year?"

"Unfortunately so. Clothes are always high on the list as well as the newest technologies, but once in a great while I might receive something completely different."

"Really? Like—"

"Everyone, we are now going to start passing out the Secret Santa presents! Please refrain from opening yours until they are all handed out!" Iida was ever the wise one and cut you off, but for a good reason at that. Both Yaoyorozu and yourself directed your attention to the blue-haired president and his wild hand gestures as he spoke. The raven-haired girl beside you took that as her cue to stand up, dusting off her skirt.

"I apologize, Y/N. It's my duty as the vice president to help Iida with handing out the presents. You wouldn't mind saving my seat though, would you?"

"Of course not, take your time."

In a little less than ten minutes, everyone had their present on their lap. Ashido looked to be the most excited to open hers, while Bakugo glared at his. Your present seemed to be big, but not heavy, so you took it as something that was either a gag or a very expensive item (because everyone knows the smaller the gift the more it costs these days). Yaoyorozu sat down beside you yet again when she was finished, the box you had so precariously wrapped earlier placed on her legs.

"I'm quite curious to see what I've received. It's not on the heavy side, but…" She looked over at your present, the curious side of her lighting up yet again. "Perhaps you have a clue as to what your gift is, Y/N?"

"Not a clue. It looks like it would be something big, but it's so light that it doesn't feel like much." You wanted to shake the box, but you didn't want to break whatever was inside if it was fragile. Trying to keep the attention off of you, your head glanced down at the box in Momo's grasp. "Why don't you open yours first? We can see what each other has gotten that way."

"That is a very smart idea, Y/N. Very well, I'll open mine first."

Her hands went and tugged at the bow you added at the very last minute, pulling it free and making it easier for her to tear off the wrapping paper. She read the tag, a bit confused as to why there wasn't another person's name written. Nevertheless, she tore off the rest of the paper and lifted the lid to the box. Tissue paper covered your creation as well as a card you decided to put in so she knew who it was actually from. Pulling it out, she unfolded the envelope and stared wide-eyed at the card.

Momo Yaoyorozu,

I thought of you when I made this scarf for you with my own hands. Your family spoils you with material possessions, and nothing that comes from the heart. They want to make you happy with whatever you desire, but that's not what Christmas should always be about. It's about giving others heartfelt, thoughtful gifts. I hope you cherish this scarf as much as I cherish the time I spent making this for you. I wouldn't have it any other way.

With much love,

Y/N

You saw tears forming at the corners of her eyes as she read the card. She threw the tissue paper aside and took out your real gift, the one you handmade yourself. The silver accented the crimson perfectly, and she clenched the material in her hands. The tears started to flow like a fountain; that's when you knew that you did the right thing.

"Y/N, I… just can't believe that you spent so much time making this for me. You didn't have to do this—"

"I didn't do this because I had to, I did this because I wanted to. I… meant every word that I wrote on that card, Momo. I love you so much, and I would do anything for you. I wanted to make you smile, because God how I love it when you smile. I messed up a lot of times while I was making that, and even while training and studying I managed to get it done for you in just the nick of time," You paused, catching your breath and chuckling slightly, "but anyways, I hope you like—"

"Like it? Y/N, I absolutely love it. This is the most thoughtful present I've ever received. Thank you from the bottom of my heart," Momo wiped the tears away from her eyes and wrapped the scarf around her neck, her gaze fixed on yours, "so… would you care to open yours now?"

You nodded, prodding carefully at the paper covering your present. Whoever wrapped it used a lot of tape, which wasn't the best idea in a situation like this, so it caused you to take a bit of extra time tearing it off. Finally, it was revealed to you.

The one who had your name was none other than Yaoyorozu herself.

Neither of you expected for it to end up this way, but it was quite the pleasant surprise. You looked at the culprit out of the corner of your eye and opened the box at the same time, revealing a card for you as well.

Y/N,

I know how much you adore the Christmas holiday, as well as books. I myself, as you may already know, enjoy both just as much as you. My gift to you comes from the heart, as I have purchased a book full of Christmas fables for us to enjoy. I would love for us to sit under a blanket together and read it.

This is the most discreet way I could confess my romantic feelings. I would very much love to spend more time with you, as well as… get to know you more than I already do.

Please accept my invitation as well as my feelings.

Momo Yaoyorozu

This was… no way was this happening.

"Y/N…?" Momo sounded worried, her pitch lowering drastically as she met your gaze once again.

"Yes. Yes, Momo, of course I accept your feelings." Now you were the one that was tearing up, grasping the book in your hands and letting the box drop on the ground. "I want this to be the first thing we do together. Tonight."

"I would love to, Y/N."

You spent the rest of the night in the comfort of your own room, Momo and yourself wrapped in a blanket with no worries whatsoever as you took turns reading aloud the many tales. When you were at the last few pages, a blank space was occupying them.

This was where you were going to write your own Christmas Story, with you and Momo as the main characters.

You would never, ever forget this day.

Hogwarts! Mingyu

@itsmultifandomshit requested: “Heyyy could you do Hogwarts! Mingyu??😊” and “Could I possibly ask for a mingyu Hogwarts au? I really love your writings their so cute~ ^^“ 

the boy's crazy 

okay not really 

but WHAT is he ON to be so good at everything?!?! 

like everyone wants to know how the hell he has those looks and aces everything in school 

the running joke is, "what potion are you drinking?” 

even though they were highkey serious in his first year 

he just gives them a smile and laughs while answering honestly, 

“studying.” 

okay but that doesn’t explain everything else Kim Mingyu 

like Qudditch 

was legit keeper since second year because he’s a tower compared to the others 

and coming pretty close to being the same height as a fifth year likeee 

basically LONG arse limbs  

it's rare someone gets the ball through the hoop while he's playing 

like the first time he played, the other team is all cocky like 'lol fresh meat ain't gonna be that good' 

so right away they get a chance to shoot the ball 

everyone's like the first goal of the game, on the edge of their seats 

because they all think Gryffindor’s new clumsy keeper won't make it 

but Mingyu stretches his hands out super calmly and catches like YOU THOUGHT AHAHA 

flying around with a happy grin on his face, everyone SHOOK 

and not only quidditch, he’s good at cooking, knitting, calculus, basically you name it he could do it 

potions is and will always be his best and favorite subject

and his creations always turn out good too

he can space out in class all he wants and doesn’t even need a textbook

just starts throwing things in his cauldron from the top of his head and the teacher will walk by like “great job Mingyu!”

Minghao will be half-glaring, half 'what-are-you?' at the side

top of the class of course 

obviously at least half of the younger portion of the girls has had a crush on him at one point or another 

it kinda goes away though because Mingyu’s obviously not looking for anything and just subconsciously friend zones everyone 

so he’s just known as that cute boy who can do everything 

except like not hurt himself everyday 

at this point no one's even surprised when Mingyu comes in with a bandage around his pinky or a giant bandaid on his head 

the professor will be looking around for people that can perform the spell first, and her eyes will stop at Mingyu expectantly 

and gets surprised when Mingyu’s struggling to even hold his wand correctly let alone perform a spell 

“Mingyu, what happened?" 

he’ll chuckle sheepishly, "well i was knitting a friend a new scarf and got scared by something so somehow my thumb broke in my process" 

and by something he means one; Jun. two; Jun getting Hoshi to mess with their fireplace 

he attempts to scratch his head with that hand and reels back in surprise because he forgot about his thumb 

the dork 

"why didn’t you go to the nurse? come then i’ll write you a pass" 

"ah! nope it’s fine I'm trying to practice healing spells so i think my thumb will be fine in a couple hours" 

yeah, him preforming the spell with his non dominant hand is way better than a nurse 

but he manages and actually

that’s how you meet him

no not by an accident 

pfft how clichee pfftt 

your friend’s birthday was coming up and you know how she’s been wanting mittens and a scarf 

so you go to out to hogsmeade and scavenge for some and can’t find anything perfect enough 

you were a third year Hufflepuff and happened to be kinda close to Joshua 

so you were just telling Joshua the prefect about your problem 

and he’s like, "hey i have a friend in Gryffindor, your year, he’s great at knitting" 

"OMG REALLY PLEASE PLEASE CAN YOU TELL HIM FOR ME" 

he just smiles and shakes his head, "nope go make new friends, Mingyu’s really nice" 

he really just wanted the both of you guys to have another friend since he thought you guys would get along well, no other intentions 

well at first 

you're just like okay no biggie, Joshua wouldn’t recommend him if he wasn’t good right?

one night after dinner you manage to see someone who fit Joshua’s description 

and man he was cute 

going up to him, you smile, introducing yourself 

"hey my name’s y/n, Joshua told me you're really good at knitting so could you help me with something?" 

you're half excepting him to be like no i don't make things for random people 

“yeah sure! you can come back to the common room with me and choose yarn and stuff" 

so the two of you make small talk, about how you know Joshua, how you guys are in the same year, random stuff 

until you reach the common room and he brings down his yarn collection for you

and you're low key surprised because wow there's literally every color you could have asked for 

"so what colors are you looking for" 

"um my friend lives for blue and silver like the Ravenclaw she is,” you tell him laughing 

he laughs also, “alright i’ll make it for you as soon as possible!" 

"no!” you shake you head, “take your time i’ll need it in like two weeks” 

he shakes his head and grins, “I'll give it to you when it's done” 

and that’s pretty much it, you say thanks and leave 

except not because you were expecting it like a week? later 

because i mean you guess you kinda knew Mingyu, just as that smart Gryffindor keeper 

but when MIngyu comes up to you two days later 

“psstt come to the library after supper I have it” 

you're not even processing it right away, just kinda like ‘what is he talking to me for’ 

then you're like oh dang ALREADY??? 

walking to the library, your mind is running miles 

and you realize like damn the library is huge how am i gonna find him 

nvm this guy is a clumsy third year giant,, not the best match 

you catch him loudly shuffling through books 

“pssst Mingyuuuu” you say, laughing as he turns around with a little jump of surprise 

“AH!” he chuckles nervously at his slightly loud yell 

coming back to his senses, he reaches in his bag, and pulls out the most beautiful scarf you’ve ever seen 

“here i finished” he grins 

“omg it’s so pretty THANK YOU” you reach into your bag trying to find your money 

“here” you hand him a few galleons, making his eyes widen 

“WOW WAit i can’t take this!!” he whisper yells 

shaking your head, “yes you can!! this is way nicer than anything i could find at hogmeade” 

you push the money into his bag and grin, “don’t worry about it alright” 

thanking him again you turn around to leave with him waving at you 

then stopping in your tracks, you bite your lip subconsciously, and turn around 

“hey don’t be a stranger! we’re friends now!” 

a bright smile spreads across his face 

“yeah!” 

his simple answer making you smile, you walk out a little happier than normal 

you not knowing why 

you both start talking together more and realize you share a few classes since you're both in the same year

but lord 

don't let anyone ever tell you Joshua Hong isn’t nosy, 

especially when it involves his friends

“Y/nnnnn...” he sings happily, walking down the stairs and sitting on the couch next to you in the common room

"yes?" you answer looking up from the essay you're stressing out about 

"how are you and Mingyu doing?" 

you raise an eyebrow at him 

like okay maybe you're dense but you're not THAT dense

you know exactly what he's implying 

"we're friends" you say emphasizing your words 

he smirks with the gears obviously turning in his head 

"well okay then," he says cheerily, "how do you feel about him" 

when did he become so BOLD 

you know better than to lie to Joshua, he can find out anything 

so it's better to not say anything at all 

you just sigh, biting your lip and get back to your essay 

faintly hearing Joshua chuckle and walk away, your mind drifts away from transfiguration to a different subject 

Kim Mingyu 

‘agh, whatever,’ you think

you don’t wanna stress yourself out about a guy that doesn’t even think of you as more than a friend

WELL 

Joshua Hong is pretty talkative with Seungcheol and Jeonghan

and you know Junhui be nosy and eavesdropping always playing that matchmaker ever since he got himself a girlfriend

then telling alllll 12 of them

so they all know, 

and not a day goes by where someone doesn’t mention you to Mingyu 

seriously Minghao was about to just walk up to you to scream “MINGYU LIKES YOU A LOT AND WANTS TO TAKE YOU ON A DATE SO SAY YES” 

except he got stupefied by Mingyu who was totally not blushing like an idiot at the thought of Minghao exposing him

then Mingyu got detention curtsy of Jeonghan

“for not being a man” 

but Mingyu’s good at stupefying people so this whole process actually gets drawn out for a while

like a couple of months of just you and Mingyu being friends

and you trying to hide your blushing cheeks whenever Joshua walks past giving you the look

until Seungkwan overhears that your birthday is coming up

gets Mingyu in a panic on what to get you 

will not stop talking to Seokmin and Minghao about it

until Minghao kinda just sighs like, “knit her a scarf? go bother her friends about colors or something”

“OOH OOH” Seokmin screams getting hype, “MAKE HER FOOOOODDDDD”

Joshua walks up to you the night before your birthday

“go to the empty potions class room!” he whispers to you

you're confused as hell, flashing him a confused look, “it’s after curfew? JOshua HOng your a prefect!” 

“sssh no one has to know” 

you're walking to the classroom carefully, with zero clues about anything

opening the class room door, peeking your head inside slightly

your jaw drops, hands automatically pushing the door wide open at the sight

Mingyu standing right in front of you, a flower in hand, shyly grinning at you

all the classroom desks are gone and somehow it’s just a cute vintage table for two right in the middle

with beautiful arrangements of food, one flower placed on the table perfectly

“happy early birthday” 

you take the flower he hands you, getting flushed

“i love this,” you sigh gently, staring at it all in awe

he smiles, the apples of his cheeks showing, and leads you to the table

pulling out a chair for you, “sit please”

you do so, placing you flower in the vase ever so carefully

you're at a lost for words honestly, “i ... why would you put so much effort in for me?” 

it really is a dumb question

“because...,” he trails off for a moment, “i like you, i like you a lot”

“i-i-i” you stutter stupidly

“i should've confessed after we ate right? then at least you don’t feel...” you hear the words he mutters under his breath nervously

“no no no wait stop!” you reach over the table and food to grab his hand, holding tightly in yours

“i like you a lot too”

he just stares blankly at you, and you can see the emotion slowly coming into his eyes 

“so let’s eat yeah? i don’t want to let all this food go to waste~” 

the time you guys spend eating and talking really goes by quickly 

as the night naturally comes to an end the both of you are much more comfortable with each other 

“hey so i got you something” he scratches his head nervously

“what no you really didn’t, especially after all this” you exclaim

already he’s pulling out a prettily wrapped box out from somewhere, you don’t know

“just open it” you can tell the smile he shows is laced with worry

carefully undoing the ribbon, opening the box, your hand touches a soft material

eyes meeting a scarf in your favorite color

“Mingyu... this is gorgeous, beautiful, seriously there’s not enough words in the dictionary” 

picking up the scarf, he chuckles quietly and walks close to you

wrapping this around your neck, he softly asks, “wear this at my next game?”

“that sounds awfully girlfriend-like of me to do,” you say, playing with the ends of the scarf 

“will you be my girlfriend?” he asks, the tone in his voice heavy with many emotions 

even though he shouldn't be worried or nervous at all

“are you expecting any other answer besides of course?” 

you stand up, wrapping your arms around his waist, resting your head against his chest

suddenly you feel the wand in his pocket buzz quietly

giggling into his chest, you lift your head up to look at him, “Mingyu what even?” 

“oh that!” he moves his arms from your shoulders to your waist, “well this didn’t go as smoothly as planned” 

laughing under his breath for a moment, he then stares into your eyes

the corners of his mouth twitching upwards, “Happy Birthday!” 

leaning down he presses a kiss right at the corner or your lips

your cheeks can’t help turning a red pink and your giggle can’t help but come out

“you dork, you really set a wand alarm?” 

shaking your head, you tippy toe

and press you lips over his, smiling into the kiss

leaning back, you smile satisfied 

“but that’s why I like you.”
