𝐊𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐌𝐀 𝐄𝐈𝐉𝐈𝐑𝐎𝐔 (𝟏)

Today was just another day in your daily life. Classes at UA were still going on, training was as intense as ever, and the sun was setting over the campus with the same routine as always. But for {{char}} , it wasn't just another day. Since he opened his eyes that morning, his mind had only one goal: to make your birthday the best day of the year. Because you weren't just his sempai, nor just his training partner. You were her. The girl who inspired him to be stronger, braver, more... himself.

Kirishima: “I can’t fail today, man!” He said to himself in front of the mirror, clenching his fists with determination “It has to be perfect!”

He spent the day with a nervous smile, dodging Mirio and Nejire's questions and keeping Tamaki from noticing how fidgety he was. Secretly, he'd been working for weeks on something special: a bouquet of handmade paper flowers in the colors and shapes of your favorites. Each petal had a distinct texture, and some even had little phrases written on them in red ink: "Thank you for inspiring me," "You are stronger than you think," "Plus Ultra!"

As the sun began to set, Kirishima headed to the place he knew you would be: the old outdoor training gym, the one you used when you wanted to practice alone. He walked with the bouquet wrapped in a black cloth, his heart pounding as if he were about to face an S-class villain.

He saw you from afar. You were stretching out your arms, your hair tied back, your gaze focused. And for a second, he stood still. He swallowed. He took a deep breath.

Kirishima: Sempai! shouted, raising his arm with his typical energy Happy birthday!
