"You know, now that we are out of U.A and, you know, almost professional Heros and all. . . Maybe you should, you know, start dating? I mean, I've never even see you kiss a girl, dude."

The droning voice Kaminari carried with it a tone of awkwardness, his back slouched as his arms rested against the table in front of him, blonde hair falling at the sides of his face to frame his perfect dumb expression.

Across the table sat a man who carried himself with a level of professionalism even in the company of a long time friend, his body built like a statue of Hercules, dark green hair buzzed off on the sides but still a mop of mess on top.

"Look, all I'm saying is you are kind of taking away my chances here and if you are married more chicks will start drifting to me." Kaminari wore a almost completely black hero outfit, similar to his one in U.A but with obvious improvements and a more flattering cut to his figure, the headphones he typically wore rested on his lap.

"Ha-ha, I'm honestly not trying to impede on your dating life." The man across the table smiled, a bright, beautiful, perfect smile.

"Ugh, man, you make me sick. You are too perfect, Deku."

The two men sat at a small stall in the middle of a hectic curry restaurant, the words they exchanged could not be heard unless one was to sit at the same stall.

As business men and women walked past the stall they would steal glances to the two, most of the time eyeing Deku, who had become extremely well known into his young adulthood.

By the time Izuku Midoriya graduated half of Tokyo knew his hero name, despite him only being a sidekick.

In a recent newspaper Deku was ranked the top "Up and Coming Professional Hero".

Two steaming plates of curry were placed on the table in front of the two men, each looking at the plates with a hungry expression.

"We were afraid you found another curry restaurant" A small short haired waitress huffed, a pout crossed her lips, "We missed you!"

Of course this young, attractive waitress was addressing Deku, acting as if she didn't even see Chargebolt.

"Oh! I've just been super busy and haven't had time to eat out! I promise I won't stop coming here!" The response Deku gave their waitress cause Kaminari to physically gag.

"You are seriously ruining my appetite." He hissed, picking up his utensils.

The waitress had left the table and Deku's attention shifted back, "What? This is good food!" Again another small laugh escaped his mouth, "Anyway, I heard you finally got assigned to the same prefecture as Jiro! Don't you two still talk?" Naturally Izuku was smart and was just as people smart as he was book smart, he shifted the conversation to be able Kiminari instead of himself, not wanting any attention set on his dating life.

"I dunno, man." Chargebolt huffed between bites of food, "She is too good for me anyway."

"Oh please, Denki, you know that isn't true. I bet she still thinks about you a lot."

This statement from Deku caused Kiminari to gulp down his food and look away, hiding a light blush and smile, "Shut up. What about you and Uravity? You guys were super close."

It seemed like Kiminari really wanted to talk about this dating thing, "Oh, We still talk but she is really busy with Gunhead's martial arts school."

"Sounds like an excuse to me." Shot a quick response from the electric quirk user.

"I'm busy."

"Also a shitty excuse."

"I'm not really interested in dating."

"Are you gay?"

"W-What? No. I'm just busy."

These short statements exchanged between the two had caused Deku to completely stop eating, watching with a furrowed brow as Kiminari gobbled up the food.

Thank god it was so loud and busy where they were, Deku didn't want any attention or light shone on his personal affairs. Plus it really was the honest truth when it came down to it, Izuku was so busy and career driven he barely had time to see his own mother.

"Fine, I'll drop this conversation." Pushing his now empty plate Kiminari waved his hand, "But only because it is probably true, though I'm pretty sure Uraraka would jump on the chance to date you."

Izuku shrugged his shoulders, his mind now on the energetic round face Uravity. She was a large part of his life still, as she kept in contact with him and they often texted and grabbed drinks, but he was pretty sure her interests in dating him had long vanished.

Thinking about getting drinks reminded Deku how long it had been since he really went out with any of his peers for longer the an hour.

"Well, I know you are probably 'busy' but I am happy we were able to grab a bite to eat before I relocated. I was thinking about how much trouble we all would get back in U.A and no matter how shitty everything got we all still could have a good time."

These memories caused Deku to look up at the now standing Chargebolt, who began putting on his headphones, "See you later, man."

The sun had already set by the time Izuku had finished getting dinner with Kiminari, he was late to get to dinner so it made sense it was probably late to get out.

The phone screen shone the time "20:45" and below it was a text from All Might: "Tomorrow is the charity event. See you at 8am to get ready! Bring your nicest clothes"

Cars and trucks drove by, people scurried back and forth, the city still busy no matter what time of day.

It seemed like it was probably a good idea for Deku to head back to his apartment, he thought about swinging by the office to finish up some paperwork but he knew the charity event meant a lot to All Might, it was always a big ordeal and it made for a long day, the sooner he went to bed the better.

Tomorrow was going to be a very busy day.
