"Inko Midoriya loved to sing. It was one of her favorite things to do. Especially when she's cooking, and this morning she had been singing like a raven bird.
Savory smells of bacon and sausage wafted through the house. The smell sure enough to make anyone hungry. Humming and singing to herself Inko cooked her sons favorite breakfast. Turning off the stove top and taking the pans off the hot eyes she smiled to herself. "There almost ready, now lets get some juice from the fridge" using her quirk she opened the door and levitated the juice carton to her hand. Grabbing the glass off the table she started to pour two glasses of juice. Placing one on each side of the table she turns back to her oven.
"There all done." Grabbing two plates out of the cabinets she begins to make their plates. "Izuku! Breakfast is ready come and eat before It gets cold!" after a few minutes with no response, Inko's humming stopped as she paused what she was doing. She hadn't even heard any movement upstairs. With furrowed brows she began to get worried. "its not like Izuku to sleep in so late."
Placing the finished plates in their preferred seats, Inko called once more to her son. "Izuku?! Still no response from the green haired boy. With a slight frown on her face she walked upstairs to check on him. Coming up to his door she smiled at the All Might sign with his name on it. "Izuku baby are you okay?" knocking on the door softly she waited for a response. Silence. Grasping the door handle Inko let herself into Izuku's room.
"Izuku? Looking around the room, all that greeted her were several smiling All Might action figures and posters. "Where is he?" His bed was made and his room was clean, but he was no where to be found. "Darn it Izuku, I made breakfast and everything." Sighing and shaking her head Inko left her son's room to go back downstairs. Humph. She pouted "I guess it must have been important for him to leave without saying anything."
Sitting down in her chair and grabbing her fork "Well, I need to eat before my food gets any colder." Taking the first bite of the breakfast she made, a grin spread across her face. "Mmmmm, oh my. This is fabulous." Munching down happily on her food she mused "he sure is missing out. Ill call him after I eat and clean the kitchen and see where he went
Izuku hurriedly ran towards the mall. He was supposed to met up with Uraraka and Iida fifteen minutes ago. "Iida is defiantly gonna say something about me being late. He always stresses about punctuality" continuing his trek to met with his friends, Izuku began muttering to himself unaware of the stares he was getting from passerbys'. "I had to take a different route this time so I'm sure they will understand" reaching into his backpack Izuku pulled out his current Hero Analyzes notebook to read over the data he had collected.
"At least I was able to get more data on Mount Lady!" Izuku smiled as be began to scribble. down more information onto the page with the superhero's name and sketch on it. "I still don't know how long she can stay in her enlarged form though." He scribbled a few more words under Mount Lady's name before nodding his head and closing his book.
"there that's all I got for now" placing his notebook back in his backpack, finally noticing that his feet had stopped moving. oh I'm here already? I must have gotten so lost in thought I wasn't paying any attention to where I was. Thought the green-eyed boy. "Crap! I spent my whole walk here lost in thought about heroes that I didn't even think about what I was gonna get Sato for this secret Santa thing!
~Flashback~
"Izuku here pick a name!" Roused out of his thoughts Izuku looked in the direction of the voice to see Ashido standing beside his desk with a bowl in her outstretched arm. "What's this?" Izuku asked. Grinning madly Ashido explained with sheer gusto. "Its for our very own class 1-A secret Santa! We wrote everyone's name down on pieces of paper and separated them into boys and girls. The girls draw each others name and then the guys. Once all names are drawn you can then look to see who you get to buy a gift for."
Ashido raised her finger into the air "But you cant tell anyone who you got. Only after everyone has opened their gifts can you tell them it was you. Okay?" Mulling the details over in his head Izuku agreed with little hesitation. "It sounds like fun. Sure ill play". shoving the bowl in his lap Ashido almost couldn't contain her joy. "Heck yeah Midoriya! You were the last person I had to convince to play now everyone's in! Here draw your name. We're gonna get together on Christmas eve to opens our gifts so we'll message everyone in group chat about when and where later."
Reaching his hand into the bowl feeling one piece of paper left. He grabbed it. Pulling the name out and looking at this piece of paper to reveal the name Sato.
~end flashback~
"So what should I get for Sato? Thinking to himself Izuku began walking towards the fountain. "maybe I should get him something that can help with his quirk." So lost in thought Izuku didn't notice the antigravity brunette quickly coming in for a tackle. "Izukkkuuuuuu! There you are we've been waiting for you!" Freckled cheeks flushed with a slight blush at the sudden intrusion on his person .
"Sorry guys, there was a villain on my normal route this morning." His face quickly lit up as his excitement grew. "mount Lady came in at full speed and took him down! It was awesome to watch. But her quirk is very limited, she cant move around very well in large cities with her size." Izuku continued to mutter about the superhero's quirk, getting lost in thought as Uraraka and Iida looked at him with worry. "careful now or your gonna explode Deku!" Uraraka said with a smile and a pat on the green haired boys shoulder. Iida was wildly chopping his hand in a ferocious flurry of movement.
"Yes midoriya while I am always one for information and learning, today we have something else we need to do." Looking at the speedster, Midoriya nodded his head in agreement. "Your right Iida. I still don't know what I'm even getting for my person. "Well I myself already have a gift in mind for my person so ill met you guys back here in an hour. Oh and Midoriya." Izuku paused his people watching to look at Iida.
"Yeah?" DON'T BE LATE, punctuality is important." With a soft smile and a chuckle in his throat Izuku nodded his head watching Iida leave. Once Iida was out of sight Uraraka grasped Izuku around his shoulders excitedly and leaned in real close. "So Deku, who do you have?" Looking back at uraraka quickly Izuku became nervous at their close proximity. "Ashido said not to tell anyone who we got."
"Oh come on Deku, please I wanna know. I wont tell anyone." sighing in defat Midoriya gave in pretty easily. "Well I got Sato. But I really don't know what to get him, maybe something that has to do with is quirk" Placing her finger on her chin Uraraka mused over some ideas in her head. "That sounds like a good idea, maybe some new baking pans or something like that. I got Jiro so I was thinking maybe a new guitar strap and some new strings, maybe even some stickers!" nodding his head and smiling he looked toward Uraraka.
"I think she'd like that." Looking sheepishly over at the brunette Izuku started to falter in his sentence but he stayed strong and forced it out. "I know Iida left to go shop alone but maybe would you wanna…. shop with me? A blush was slowly moving up his face. "We can look for the gifts together, maybe a second opinion will help in picking out the perfect gift." A nervous look was met with a bright smile. Throwing her arms around the green-eyed boy, in an dramatic display. "Of course Deku! Well go look for Sato's gift first. There's an appliance store right over there." Pointing to the far right side of the mall. "And then we'll go to that new music shop that opened up. I've been wanting to check it out any ways"
Talking as they walked the two friends shopped for their secret Santa's,. Enjoying the idle chatter and hustle of the mall. It was a nice vacation from hero classes. Tomorrow everyone would be getting together for the first time since Christmas break and it was gonna be exciting.
