A/N. Hey everyone. This is my first fic so feel free to leave some criticism. This first one is long as hell, but I just couldn't find a good place to stop. Hope you enjoy

Ochako's eyes shot open as her alarm went off at 6:30 a.m like it always did.

"Ugh" she groaned as she sat up. "Need to start going to sleep earlier." With a stretch and a yawn, she made her way from her bed to her bathroom in her small one-bedroom apartment. Turning on the light in her bathroom revealed an unsightly scene. The bags under eyes were extremely prominent this morning and the tangled mess of brown hair was going to be a nightmare to sort out before she leaves for work. As her morning routine commenced she started a pot of coffee that should be ready by the time she gets out of the bathroom. Once she finished up showering and making her hair somewhat presentable she poured her coffee into a small mug as she made her way further into her kitchen. She opened her fridge and pulled out a carton of eggs and some frozen hash browns from her freezer. This was not a regular breakfast for Ochako though, today was Friday and she had the next two days off as a result of working the last 8 days with no days off. Needless to say she was in a good mood.

BZZZT BZZZT

Ochako picked up her phone that has been buzzing furiously since she got up this morning. She had been getting a ton of text messages from her friend groups group chat.

Mina – "Hey girls. Does anyone want to get together and have a few drinks tonight? Its been ages since we all hung out."

Momo – "I think that is a splendid idea Mina. I don't have to work tomorrow morning, but I do have the night shift so I would love to hang out."

Kyoka – "I finish up work tonight at around 7. Where do you all want to meet up?"

Toru – "I'm away for my dad's birthday this weekend. Have fun girls."

Mina – "We'll miss you Toru. Let us know when you're back and we can get together will you."

Ochako read the messages on her phone and thought to herself It has been a while since we all hung out. She had nothing planned for her two days off she might as well try and spend some time with her friends. After all it has been far too long since they all go together to hang out and enjoy each other outside of work.

Ochako – "Lets do it! If you want, we can have wine at my house tonight if you're all wanting to hang out."

Ochako loved having company over. Living alone sometimes was boring and lonely so Ochako liked to invite people over whenever she could.

BZZT BZZT

Mina – "Okay Uraraka I like that idea!"

Momo – "I can't wait. What time are you off work tonight Ura?"

Mina – "Her and I are off work at 5:30 tonight. So, we can maybe meet up at like 8?"

Ochako thought to herself for a second. 8 o'clock? That gives Mina and I two and a half hours to get ready, and I still need to clean this place up if people are going to be coming over. Two and a half hours is more than enough time

Ochako – "8 o'clock sounds good girls. Talk to you more at work"

And with that Ochako put her phone down to tend to her food that she was preparing on the stove. After eating her eggs and hash browns she went back to her room to put on her work clothes before she heads out to work. She held up a pink pair of scrubs and a white pair of scrubs. She just couldn't decide which one to wear. After a small debate with herself she decided on the white top with black pants. After getting dressed she made her bed and checked her bedside clock. 7:45 am. She dashed into her bathroom to check her hair and brush her teeth. Once her teeth were brushed and her hair was put into a high and tight pony tail she made her way to her front door. As she slipped on her shoes she could hear the jingling of keys coming from outside her door. She pressed her face up to the peep hole on her front door to reveal a man in a grey hoodie, jeans, and bright red shoes with thick white soles trying to get into the room adjacent to hers. Huh that's weird. I didn't think anyone lived in there she thought to herself. She put her cell phone into her pocket and grabbed her keys before opening the door to the apartment hallway. The man in the hoodie turned his head when he heard her coming out of her apartment.

"Hello, are you having trouble?" She asked the hooded man. He turned around and took his hood off to reveal a head of forest green hair and emerald eyes. His face had freckles and he looked utterly exhausted.

"Yeah I just moved in and I haven't had a chance to fix my door yet. Usually it doesn't give me this much trouble, but work was crazy last night, and I'm pretty worn out." He smiled as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"Mine does that too" She giggled. "Here allow me" Ochako motioned to show him a trick to open the door.

"Be my guest" he said. Ochako grabbed the door handle and lifted up as she twisted the door handle. The door made a popping sound as it popped open. Allowing him access to his apartment. His eyes lit up as he was one step closer to finally getting some sleep. "Hey, thanks!" he exclaimed.

"No problem! You have yourself a good sleep." she smiled at her neighbour before turning to head for the front door.

"Hey wait! I didn't get your name." He shouted

She turned back to look at him "My name is Ochako"

"I'm Izuku, nice to meet ya" He extended his hand to offer a handshake. She accepted and shook his hand and gave him a friendly smile before looking at her phone and almost jumping at seeing the time.

"Oh my god I'm going to be late!" she practically screamed as she turned to run out of the apartment buildings front doors. Izuku was now standing in the hallway alone. He was embarrassed he had made his neighbour late for work because he couldn't open his own front door.

I'll have to apologize some other time. He thought to himself. Izuku's body threatened to collapse from exhaustion so he made his way into his apartment, so he could finally sleep. Even though he had been on the police force for 5 months his body was not quite ready for the immense workload that he was thrusted into. 12-hour days 5 days at a time was taxing on his body and his mind, but he did have three days off after his shift tonight. Three whole days to relax and unwind. He could not be more excited. Izuku laid down on his bed and shut his eyes. "Just one more shift" he muttered to himself before dozing off.

…

Ochako arrived at the hospital with five minutes remaining before her shift stated. She usually takes the bus to work but after stopping and helping her new neighbour with his front door she missed her bus and had to wait for another one. She didn't like showing up this close to her start time. She liked to drop her things off in the staff room and have a cup of coffee and chat with her friends before her shift started, but she couldn't have just ignored Izuku hopelessly trying to open his door. He looked so tired and so beat down although super cute. Ochako's cheeks begun to turn red as she begun to think about her new cute, green haired neighbour. She entered the staff room where Mina, Kyoka and Momo were gathered having a coffee. Mina was dressed in her bright pink scrubs while Momo had black pants and a white blouse on under her white doctor's coat. Even though Momo was a doctor she liked to take her breaks in the nurse's breakroom, it was a lot livelier and fun she thought. Just as Ochako entered the room Kyoka's radio began to ring out signaling her that her ambulance had received a call and she had to go.

"Hi Ochako, I'll see you tonight when I get off work" Kyoka said as he gave Ochako a hug before running out of the room.

"Jeez Ura, me and the other nurses though you were skipping work today. You're never this late!" Mina teased her friend.

"I was not late!" Ochako rebelled.

"Yeah, but you were close!" Mina said as she stuck her tongue out.

"It's not like you to cut it this close. Is everything okay?" Momo asked.

"Oh yeah everything is fine. I just missed my bus because I was helping my new neighbour with his stupid front door. You know how the doors are in my building."

Mina's eyes began to light up at this small interaction that Ochako explained. "Ura did you say HIS?! What's his name? What's he look like? Is he cute? Are you two going on a date?" Mina squealed in delight. Ochako's face was starting to become red from embarrassment. She hid her now red face in her hands and attempted to hide her blushing from her friends.

"Well girls, I better get to it. I will see you two tonight." Momo got up from her chair and left the nurses staff room leaving Mina and Ochako alone in the room.

"Bye Momo." Both girls waved at their friend.

"We can talk about him later Mina, okay?"

"Ugh fine!"

With that both girls went to work checking on already admitted patients and patients in the waiting room.

…

Izuku stirred from his sleep around 5:30 in the afternoon. Still feeling tired but not nearly as exhausted as before he stretched his arms and made his way from his bed into his kitchen. Izuku browsed his pantry and his fridge before grabbing a bowl of instant noodles. He grabbed his kettle and began filling it up with water from his kitchen sink. After his kettle was full he put it on to boil. Once his water was on its way to boiling he headed into his bathroom to turn on the water to his shower. Something he desperately needed after not showering before he fell asleep. As Izuku got his water temp to his liking he entered his shower. Once in the shower his mind began to wake up as he thought of all the things he was going to do on his days off after his shift tonight. One thing was for certain he was going to up his workout routine in the following days. Izuku got out muscled by a criminal he was in pursuit of last week which in turn caused the man the opportunity to escape after stealing from a jewelry store. Izuku wasn't particularly hurt by any means, but his ego took quite a beating afterwards. As he stepped out of the shower he could hear the kettle whistling in the kitchen. He did his best to dry himself off in a hurry before wrapping the towel around his waist and heading out to the kitchen. He removed the kettle from the burner and poured the boiling water into his bowl of noodles. He closed the lit to the bowl to let the noodles cook in the water. He turned and walked back into his bedroom to get dressed. Izuku slipped on the same pair of jeans he wore yesterday and a white tank top. His uniform along with all his gear was kept at the police station. So he never had to worry about leaving anything at home. After getting dressed he again walked from his room to his kitchen and removed the lid from his noodles. He sat at his kitchen table and began to slurp on his exquisite home cooked meal and scrolled the news on his phone. There was a big baseball game on tonight, so he expected that once that was over his shift was going to get busy dealing with drunk baseball fans that want to fight or those who think they can drive. After finishing his noodles Izuku checked his clock before he made his way to his door. 6:15. I better hurry if I want to get a god workout in before my shift. Izuku preferred to workout before his shift starts because it gives him a chance to mentally prepare for his job ahead of him. Izuku grabbed his keys, wallet and his phone before opening his door the way is neighbour showed him earlier in the day. As he made his way towards the front door he caught himself thinking about his brunette neighbour.

She was so gorgeous and friendly. She didn't have to stop and help me, especially if she was running late for her job. I hope I can see her again. Izuku shook his head at the thoughts of her. No way pal, she's way to far outta your league. Lower the bar. Izuku's mind replaced the happy thoughts with some more 'realistic thoughts'. As he made his way to the front door of the apartment building he could see two figures on the other side of the of the frosted glass door. He opened the door to and came face to face with Ochako standing with another girl.
