Izuku's eyes shot open quickly. He winced in pain. He tried to use his hands to cover the wound he had, but they were tied down. He tried to access the situation.

'Where am I?'

He began feeling his limbs again. He was sitting in a chair, and his hands and feet were tied down. He looked around the room. No one else, just him.

He tried to move his hands to escape the restraints, but his arms felt weak.

He tried activating One For All, and nothing. He looked down at his restraints and had an idea.

He moved his head down and tried to bite his restraint. It increased his headache when he moved his head, but he needed to leave. He couldn't remember how he got here, but he was going to get out.

His head was foggy as he clenched his teeth around the restraint. He pulled once. He pulled twice. His teeth were starting to hurt, but he continued nonetheless.

Three. Four.

A small tearing sound occurred when he pulled it, so he hoped that was the restraint's breaking.

Five. Six.

His head launched backwards as the straps flew off his wrist. He immediately grabbed his aching jaw. The movement also caused pain in his other wound, so he quickly covered it up with his hand.

He quickly released his other hand, and two feet using his free hand.

He tried to stand up, before stumbling forwards and coughing up blood on the ground. He grimaced in pain as he stood up and used a wall for support. Luckily, there was a mirror in the room.

He looked at it.

He has several cuts on his face, but they weren't hurting as much as his other wounds. They caused the left side of his face to be covered in blood.

His mouth was leaking blood out of it.

His shoulder looked like someone had plunged a knife into it.

The left side of his waist had a bullet hole in it.

He looked wide eyed at the reflection before he looked around the room for something to cover up his injuries. He applied pressure to them as he searched.

If they did this much damage to him, and then left him in this room, they expected him to die, right?

He found a couple strips of someone else's shirt.

He wrapped one around his shoulder, and tied two together to tie around his waist. He used a couple more to wrap around the same wounds again.

He stood up. He was hurting slightly less, which didn't do much to relieve him.

Izuku squinted as he looked around the room again. Doors tend to be useful.

He caught sight of a doorknob. He stumbled towards it before he put his head against it to hear inside. Nothing.

He slowly opened the door. Upon entering the next room, he was relieved to find out it was empty.

He walked around the room. It looked like a warehouse type storage facility. Maybe it was underground?

He was about to walk up to another door, before his head flared with pain.

Yesterday

Izuku smiled happily at his best friend and newly discovered crush. He blushed a little thinking about the realization he had around a week ago.

She smiled back, "Are you excited Deku!?"

He couldn't help but raise his fist into the air and say, "Yeah!"

The students of Class 2-A had planned a break day after their first month of second year.

What was their break day planned to be? A group get together at a beach festival.

Apparently people decided that a random beach that somehow got cleaned last year would make a great festival area. And they were right! The students saw the reviews saying the place was beautiful.

So, Iida and Yaoyoruzo planned the event. Everyone could choose a partner to be with during the event. Partners would travel around the festival, and could join with each other. The only rule was, every hour all of the partners had to meet up.

Ochako was blushing when she asked Izuku to accompany her, and of course, he said yes.

He failed to notice her smile after he accepted, and she failed to notice his smile after she turned around.

Iida decided the class would all walk together towards the event, so they could talk to each other before they all split apart.

Izuku and Ochako were talking to Tsuyu and Fumikage's group. They both smirked at the obvious attraction the frog and bird lovers had for each other.

Izuku might be dense, but at least he was observant enough to notice these things.

He started looking around. Jiro and Kaminari were talking to each other. He chuckled, remembering how she asked him. Mineta originally tried to ask Denki, but Jiro drop kicked him before asking Denki. He seemed pretty happy after he accepted.

He caught sight, or lack thereof, of Tooru and Ojiro. They both seemed a bit flustered when they asked each other. Ojiro was usually calm.

He looked at a couple other groups. Mina was with Kirishima, who originally planned an going with Katsuki, but she asked Eijiro first.

Shoto and Momo were together, and a couple more groups. Not all of them could be seen as romantic, a couple of the groups were clearly just friends.

He blushed realizing that his group could be seen as romantic.

He turned to look at Ochako. She was talking to Tsuyu with a bright smile on her face. She looked energetic, and happy. She looked really pretty. He blushed again.

When did these feelings get so strong?

She turned to him.

"Deku! We're almost there!"

He smiled, "Y-yeah! I'm excited!"

He was, really. The beach he trained at for 10 months was turned into a festival. A festival that happened once every month, as long as there was warm weather.

And of course, he got to spend time with his best friend. Confess? He really didn't have the guts yet, but he probably had to face her about these feelings at some time.

He looked up from the ground and his eyes widened. The sun was setting over the festival area. The bright reflection the sun was casting almost blinded him as he felt the wind at the beach blow into him. He smiled.

The attractions at the festival were standard, and more like an amusement park. Every area had lights attached to it, bright lights that illuminated the sand around it in a stylish way.

"Wow… It's beautiful."

He turned his head to look at Uraraka, who just spoke.

He inched slightly closer to her. "Yeah, it is."

She smiled at him.

Iida walked in front of everyone.

"Alright, everyone can split off with their partner now. Make sure to come back in an hour at 7:30! Feel free to get food while you are out." He began walking towards his partner.

Everyone began splitting off slowly. Izuku and Ochako began walking towards one of the areas.

"I guess we'll just look around first." She said with a smile.

He smiled back.

He caught sight of a shop. It seemed to sell stuffed plushies of some kind.

He pointed towards it. "Hey, Uraraka."

She looked at the store and her face lit up.

She subconsciously grabbed his hand and ran to the store.

He blushed as he quickly caught up. They stopped in front of the store. She turned around to see a blushing Izuku and she was holding his hand. She blushed and let go of his hand.

"S-sorry!"

"I-it's fine! Let's check out this store." He said, trying to ease any awkwardness.

They both walked into the store and looked around. It seemed the entire shop was dedicated to plushies.

Izuku stopped at a plushie of himself. Apparently, he made a pretty good impression getting first place in the UA sports festival.

Ochako walked up behind him and looked at his plushie. She blushed a little and looked at the other UA plushies. She got fourth, and apparently that was enough to get her own plushie.

He saw her's and blushed.

"Guess I was good enough to get my own one!" She said with a smile.

He smiled back, "Guess so, you did really well."

Uraraka got recognition for beating Tenya in her first round and Fumikage in her second round. Many people expected her to lose her second round because Fumikage's quirk would be hard to counter. But of course, she managed it.

She almost beat Todoroki in her third round, which amazed a lot of people. Izuku congratulated her with mochi that day.

She smiled at him as she looked at stickers of all of Class A. Those not fortunate enough to get a plushie only got stickers.

They both laughed together at Tooru only having a couple stickers, which were just floating gloves and shoes.

They eventually left the store, and walked around a bit more.

At some point, Ochako caught Izuku staring at the shoreline.

She smiled, "Wanna go check it out?"

He blushed as he nodded and started running. "Last one there is a rotten egg!"

Ochako smiled as she bolted forwards to catch up with him.

A couple minutes later, they were sitting on a small dock together.

The sun was going below the horizon, and the night sky was beginning to show.

Ochako stared at the different stars that were appearing.

She looked over at Izuku, who was staring at the last bit of the sun, and the orange sky above it.

He looked calm. The wind was blowing his hair back, revealing more skin on his head.

She blushed a bit.

'He looks… Hot… I really need to get these feelings in check. Izuku's an amazing hero already, and we're not even halfway through our second year. He's just amazing… Should I confess? Right now? Nonono, he probably doesn't feel the same way about me, and it will make everything awkward… but… I have to eventually, right?'

Izuku took a deep breath, "Hey, Uraraka."

She looked directly into his eyes. They were staring right back at her.

"There's something I've kind of been wanting to tell you for a… Bit of time now."

She widened her eyes.

'There's no way he's…'

"Uraraka, I… I-"

BANG!!

Izuku and Ochako's heads rattled at the explosion. They both turned their heads to see someone standing at the start of the dock.

The person threw some sort of device in front of them.

Izuku turned and tackled Ochako in a way they'd both land in the water.

Before that could happen, the device exploded and sent the two teens flying further into the ocean.

Under the water, Ochako quickly moved her head to try and find Izuku. She caught sight of him below her. She swam down and grabbed his torso. She pulled him into her as she swam upwards.

Izuku's consciousness was fading out, but he sobered up and started swimming upwards to help her.

They both emerged and took in deep breaths of air. They quickly turned towards the dock to see no one there. Their eyes widened when they saw the festival area. It was on fire.

The reflection of the fire looked pretty on the ocean, but they were not thinking that when Izuku grabbed Ochako and flicked them towards the shore using One for All.

They flew onto the shore. They landed and looked at each other.

"Are you okay?"

Izuku responded, "My head hurts a little bit but I'm fine, what about you?"

She looked downwards at her wrist, which was cut up a little. "Other than this, I'm fine. It doesn't hurt too bad."

He clenched his teeth slightly and nodded. He turned around and looked at the festival area.

"We should call the police, and Aizawa." Ochako said. Izuku quickly nodded as he pulled out his phone and warned both of his calls.

They both started running towards the fire. When they were closest to it, they began to see one of their friends.

Tsuyu was healing people who were already outside of the fire, as her quirk made her more affected by heat.

They ran over to her.

"Tsuyu, what happened?" Ochako asked urgently.

The frog girl looked up. "Uraraka! Midoriya! We found everyone except you two, we assumed the worst happened, ribbit."

Izuku's eyes turned hopeful, "Everyone has been found?"

Tsuyu shook her head, "Well, everyone in our class. Most of them went back in to try and help civilians, ribbit."

The two nodded and looked over at the fire. A couple ice structures were seen inside of it.

'Todoroki…'

Izuku started running towards the action, followed by Ochako.

He turned back to look at her, "We need to get everyone out, and look for any villain who could have caused this."

She nodded.

They both carefully walked into the festival area, making sure to avoid the fires. They noticed that everyone they found was not a part of their class.

"Where is everyone?" He asked the question they were both thinking.

Ochako looked like tears were about to come out of her eyes.

She tilted her head up, "We have to keep looking for them!"

He nodded as they ventured further. They walked past a couple of Shoto's ice structures, and he was nowhere to be found.

The two already helped some civilians out and sent them towards Tsuyu.

The teens kept looking around. Eventually, they were in almost the middle of the catastrophe. They scoped out the area, and didn't find anyone.

Izuku walked ahead of Ochako, and looked through a stone alleyway near them.

The man at the dock was there. Izuku's eyes widened as the man threw a familiar device at him. He turned around, but it was to late.

The explosion went off, and sent Izuku a meter away and on his back. His head slightly banged against the concrete. He needed to get up.

He picked himself up off of the ground and looked at Ochako, who was at his side.

Izuku looked behind her towards the alleyway. He halfway expected the man to be gone, but his hopes were crushed.

The villain was right behind her. He tried to shield her, but the man grabbed her shoulder and placed a different device over her mouth. She quickly fell unconscious.

Izuku activated One for All and jumped forwards. He kicked the man, which sent him back a bit, but the villain charged back and swiped his arm.

Izuku tried to dodge, but he failed as the man grabbed him and put the same device over his mouth. His eyelids felt heavy, as his vision of the villain faded out.

/ \ / \

Izuku opened his eyes. He was in the second room of the warehouse. He felt the pain of his wounds flare as he grimaced and held his injuries.

He slowly stood up.

'A villain attacked us on our break day. I almost confessed to Uraraka… I need to find them.'

He clenched his teeth as he stood up straight and walked towards the door of the room. He listened to it… Nothing.

He opened the door and checked inside. It was a long hallway. He was on the end of it. He stepped inside and cautiously walked to one of the doors. He still needed the wall for support, as he was holding his gunshot wound.

Before opening the door, he looked around. There were 8 doors other than his. Each door had a small window on it, but they were labeled as being one way windows.

Izuku looked inside of the door he was standing at.

The room inside resembled the room he woke up in, except there were more chairs.

Three chairs. Eijiro, Tsuyu, Ochako.

His eyes widened as he quickly put his hand over the door knob.

Before he opened it, someone inside of the room spoke. He could tell it wasn't his classmates, because they all had cloth covering their mouths. Izuku could barely hear it, but he was able to make it out.

"Well, I hope you're glad to hear, but we're back from our break!"

A villain walked in front of the three.

"Which one of you to kill first…"

Izuku's eyes widened. He held his hand to the doorknob, but he knew he probably wouldn't be able to ambush the villain, from how far they were from the door.

He then realized the villain had a gun.

"Well, miss Uraraka, you seemed to be the most upset about that kid's death, so how about I let you join him?"

Izuku started breathing heavily.

'Was he talking about me!?'

The villain pulled their pistol out of their pocket, as he walked towards her. Eijiro and Tsuyu seemed to be trying to free themselves from their restraints, ineffectively.

Ochako was crying and looking straight at the ground. She was tense.

The villain stopped walking in front of her, as he started rising his gun up to her head.

Izuku's eyes widened.

'He's close to the door! I have to save her!'

That's the last thing Izuku could think before he twisted the knob, and slammed his shoulder into the door.

/ \ / \

1 Hour Ago

Ochako's consciousness slowly came back to her, as she raised her head up. The last thing she remembered was Iida planning some sort of festival.

But then, before she could analyze her surroundings, her memories came back. What happened to Izuku? And everyone else?

Her vision came back to her as she looked around.

Eijiro, and Tsuyu were also tied to chairs, seemingly waking up just like her.

Were they kidnapped?

The room was mostly dark, except for the small blueish light in the middle of the room.

There was also a door closest to her. It was the only door in the room, and it had a small mirror on it, for some reason.

But her training taught her to look into things further.

The mirror might also be a window, on the other side.

Was someone watching them?

She heard the muffled cries of her friends as she looked over to them.

They were looking behind her. She blinked.

"Hello, friends." Someone said from behind her chair. She tried to look behind her, but her restraints wouldn't allow it.

They walked in front of her. Just a typical villain, with black clothes.

"Now, In case you think that you three are the only ones here, don't be mistaken. We have everyone in your class locked up. Now, it's time to have fun."

The students' eyes widened as the man revealed a TV in the corner of the room.

"You guys probably want to see this. One of your classmates already caused us some trouble. So, we're gonna kill him, and show it to everyone here. I'm just being honest with you guys."

The three started sweating as small tears formed in their eyes.

Eijiro thought, 'Did Bakugou do something!?'

The TV flickered on, revealing a room like theirs. With a green haired boy sitting in a chair.

The three's eyes widened. Tears started coming out of Ochako's eyes as she desperately tried to remove herself from her restraints.

'Nononono, this can't be happening!'

The villain smiled, "You guys seem to be pretty upset about him dying. You mostly." He pointed towards her.

She clenched her teeth.

On the TV, someone bursted into Izuku's room. They had a cart behind them. It had a pistol, and a knife loaded on the top, and random supplies on the bottom.

The man in Ochako's room began talking. "Well, we decided instead of just putting a gun to his head, why not torture him, y'know, for messing with one of our guys."

Ochako closed her eyes as she began balling harder.

"Hey, open your eyes, or I'll shoot one this frog looking girl."

She opened her eyes and glared at the man. He smiled as he looked back towards the TV.

The man in Izuku's room picked up the knife that was on the cart. He walked towards the student.

Izuku was fading in and out of consciousness. His eyes were barely open, and his reactions were slow.

The villain in his room took the knife and put it up against Izuku's forehead. He cut a couple times. Blood trickled down Izuku's face.

Ochako started breathing heavier.

The villain then kicked Izuku in his chest. The man was big, so it sent Izuku flying into the back of the chair. He collided with it and fell back to his previous limp position.

Then, the villain took the knife and lined it up with Izuku's shoulder. He plunged it in, and pulled it out.

Izuku's eyes widened. Blood started coming out of his nose and mouth as he winced in pain.

The villain in his room smiled, before he grabbed Izuku's head and slammed it on the back of the chair.

He then picked up the gun, and shot Izuku in the waist.

Izuku had already fallen asleep. The villain, not caring to check if he was really dead, walked out of the room with his cart.

The TV cut out.

Ochako's room's villain started laughing.

"Well that was gruesome. I hope you enjoyed it."

She was hunched over and still crying heavily. Tons of tears were falling.

Eijiro and Tsuyu had similar reactions.

"Wow, you guys seem upset by that." The villain said as he looked at his watch.

"Oh, I gotta meet up. I'll be back in about… 40 minutes? Yeah, that sounds right."

The villain opened the door and left.

The three were left to think about Izuku's death and their current situation for the next 40 minutes.

/ \ / \

Izuku slammed the door open and dashed towards the villain. The villain heard the noise and turned around.

Izuku grabbed his arm and pulled the gun away from Ochako's head, just as it went off.

He kicked the villain in the stomach and grabbed the gun. He took the gun and smashed it onto the head of the villain, which was enough to make him unconscious.

Izuku turned his head to look at his friends. They were staring at him wide eyed. He quickly undid their restraints.

Immediately, they all hugged him. Tsuyu and Eijiro backed off, but Ochako stayed and buried her face into his chest.

Eijiro started, "We thought you were dead!"

Tsuyu talked slightly calmer, "What happened?"

Izuku hesitantly put his arms around his best friend, and explained, "I woke up in a room with a bunch of injuries. I have a headache, the left side of my forehead is all cut up, I have a stab wound on my shoulder, and a gunshot wound in my waist. I found my way here after I patched myself up a little bit."

Ochako then pushed Izuku into a sitting position on the wall. She was inspecting his wounds. The other friends started looking at them too.

She wiped some of the blood off of his face, before she started applying pressure on his two other large wounds.

"There's other rooms outside of that door. I think that's where everyone else is."

Eijiro and Tsuyu nodded as they checked into the outside hallway to see the other room.

They came back a minute later.

"Everyone else is here. None of the villains seem to be pulling out guns like they did with Ochako, ribbit."

He nodded, before he tried to stand up. Ochako held him down.

"Deku, no, you're injured!"

He replied, "Then you guys need to go save them! I can stay here."

The other three looked at each other.

Ochako leaned forwards to whisper in Izuku's ear, "...Deku… I don't want to leave you…"

His eyes widened. "Are you guys sure I can't come with?"

Eijiro sighed, "Be careful, and don't run in to any of the rooms."

Izuku nodded.

Ochako helped him stand up as the four walked out of their room.

Just then… BEEP BEEP

The beeps continued to sound as lights started flashing red. The four looked around quickly.

"Three prisoners have escaped." The intercom said.

The four's eyes widened as they saw some of the door handles opening. Coming out of their classmate's rooms, there were multiple villains.

Every villain was now on them.

Their eyes widened at Izuku.

"He's alive!"

"Goddamnit John, I told you we needed a guard in this hallway!

The villains rushed forwards.

Izuku and his friends fought.

Ochako, having continued her martial arts training since after their first year, was able to take out the uncoordinated villains in the group.

Izuku, having the strongest body in the class without the help of his quirk, was able to knock a couple of them unconscious with his bare hands and not knowing the intricacies of the fighting style he mained.

Eijiro was able to hit several of them unconscious because of his muscular frame, along with him knowing a lot about throwing punches and kicks.

Tsuyu was a bit on the unluckier side. Since her quirk was a mutant type, the anti-quirk drugs basically just weakened her entire body.

She was mainly behind her friends, making sure the enemies that got passed them would end up in the hospital.

With a slam on the ground, the fight was brought to an end. It seemed the UA students won. Izuku sat down in the hallway and leaned back on a wall for support. His injuries might have caused a bit more damage to his body while he was fighting.

Ochako, having the highest body count, had her adrenaline fade away before she collapsed on the wall next to Izuku.

Tsuyu and Eijiro walked into the rooms and freed their classmates. From the rooms, the two cinnamon rolls could hear people screaming about Izuku being alive. Seemingly because their friends had told them.

People slowly came out, and looked wide eyed at Izuku. Some came over to try and hug him, before they saw Ochako tending to his injuries. The green haired teen was able to talk with them though.

Eventually, Izuku was patched up again to stop his bleeding. He fell unconscious. Ochako picked him up bridal-style and followed her classmates. Iida, put in charge, was ordering everyone to be quiet as they tried to find a way out.

Calling the police was a no go, as none of them, nor the villains had phones on them.

Ochako was worried. The man she and Izuku saw at the dock, they haven't seen yet.

The class patiently made their way through the enemy base, being careful not to trip any alarms.

After around an hour, they found a door to the outside.

They had Tooru peek out, to look at the area. She said they were just in a downtown part of Musutafu. They came out of a warehouse type building. They immediately were recognized by someone, and in turn, that someone let them use their phone. Iida used it to call Aizawa.

Fortunately, Aizawa picked up. Normally he wouldn't pick up numbers he didn't recognize, but all of his students were just kidnapped, so of course he did.

Iida semi-explained what had happened. The teacher urgently told them to go to the nearest police station.

And so, they did.

Once they were inside, the police immediately took care of things. They called UA and the Hero Commission's Office.

Izuku and Ochako were the only ones with injuries, even though his were way worse than hers, they were both sent to the same hospital.

Everyone was given treatment to reawaken their quirks, which worked effectively.

Aizawa made a stop at the police station to check on his students. He was followed in by a bunch of heroes.

"We're going to raid the warehouse you came from. Iida, I want you to come with us to show us the location. The rest of you are free to leave. I was given orders to tell you to not go out in public for a little while, and don't make me enforce that."

The students nodded.

"I'd recommend that you all head back to UA. Your family is allowed to visit, if you want to see them. Or, you can go see your friends at the hospital. And while that would be nice, I believe those two need some alone time."

He said before he walked out with the other heroes and Iida.

Most of the students eventually left to go back to UA, most of them were calling their parents and asking them to visit.

Mina was sitting in the corner of the police station. She was about to call her mother. She had a small smile on her face after she made a realization.

'Aizawa-sensei ships Izuocha!'

/ \ / \

Izuku slowly felt his consciousness fade in. A contrast from when he immediately woke up in the warehouse room.

His vision trickled in as he blinked a couple times. White ceiling tiles. He knew where he was. He felt the hospital bed below him.

He looked to his left.

Another bed, labeled "Uraraka." It was empty.

Looks like they both got the same room. He felt something warm on his right hand. He looked over.

Ochako was sitting in the chair next to his bed, she was asleep, and holding his hand.

He blushed slightly as he sat up. His injuries seemed mostly healed. The only one that really went deep into him was the knife wound on his shoulder. The gunshot wound could actually be healed pretty quickly with the help of quirks.

Where the gunshot wound was before, was now just a couple bandages.

He felt his forehead, and there were no cuts. Looks like he landed himself in a pretty good hospital.

There were a couple bandages surrounding his shoulder, but there wasn't any pain.

He felt Ochako waking up next to him. He smiled as her eyes fluttered open. He then decided that no matter what, he was telling her now.

She was so special to him. She meant so much to him. She needed to know how important she was to him before he really went away for good. She needed to know how special she was in his heart.

She tilted her head up slowly at him. She blushed a little bit, before she launched herself forwards and hugged him. He chuckled a little bit.

"You're safe!"

Looks like she's still waking up, he concluded.

"Yeah, I'm all safe. Everyone is."

She looked up at his face.

"I thought you were dead, Izuku."

He felt something when she said his first name. It felt like a wave of pleasure across his body.

"I promise I'll be more careful. You, and everyone else don't deserve to see me get injured so much."

She hugged him a little tighter, but she stayed silent.

She then loosened the hug quickly.

"Wait, am I hurting you?"

Ah, she was worried about his injuries. He smiled.

"No, not at all."

She stayed in that position. She was basically sitting on his lap, and hugging him.

"Hey Ochako, I need to tell you something."

She looked up and met with his face and his beautiful green eyes that were staring into hers.

"I was going to tell you this when we were at the beach, but I didn't get the chance."

She took in a breath.

"And this is something you really need to know. And I won't put it off any longer."

She slowly moved her hand up and put it on his cheek.

He took in a deep breath, "Ochako, you're really special to me. You gave me my hero name, by changing "Deku" from a nickname I hated to something cute that you called me. You've grown so much since we both saved each other on our first day on campus. You tried to give me your points, because you wanted me to pass the exam too."

She was looking wide eyed at him.

"If we never met each other, we both wouldn't have gotten accepted. We both got each other enough rescue points to get into the class. And since we've started school, you've only made me even more determined to keep on this path. And there's so much more I can say about how special you truly are."

He slightly smiled as he moved his head forewords and leaned his forehead on hers.

"What I'm really trying to say, is that I love you, Ochako. I really really love you."

She gasped.

After staying silent for a moment, he quickly said, "I-it's alright if you don't feel the same wa-"

She was cut off by Ochako's lips. They were both staring into each other's eyes as they kissed. Ochako wrapped her arms around his body. Once they slowly pulled away from it, she put a finger over his lips to silence him.

"Izuku, you're giving me too much credit. You're the amazing one. You're at the top of our class, and you still help everyone out. You've given everyone advice that's helped them a ton. And, you've given me so much help."

She started rubbing her finger across his lips.

"The grappling hooks in my hero suit are based off of your quirk. You were the one who suggested I should learn martial arts. You're so special to everyone in this class, this school, hell, the whole damn world."

He stared into her eyes.

"And you're special to me. Really special to me. I've always wanted to just rub your cheeks, and kiss you senseless. Izuku, I love you, like, I really love you. I've wanted to just sneak into your room and tell you how important you are to me and cuddle you 'till the morning."

He was taking deep breaths, and slowly rising up towards her. He eventually lunged forwards into another kiss. They both hugged each other and fell backwards onto the bed. Their legs were sprawled around each other. They disconnected the kiss after a minute, and Ochako buried her face into Izuku's chest as he smiled and kissed her forehead. She giggled sweetly.

He rested his head above hers as he wrapped one of his arms around her waist. He pulled his other arm under her side and started slowly playing with her hair.

Her arms were wrapped around his chest. She smiled brightly as her eyes closed.

Izuku felt his eyelids get heavier as they closed.

"I love you… Ochako."

She hummed in amusement. "... I love you too, Izuku."

With two contagious smiles, they fell asleep.

/ \ / \

(Fic is kinda over, but read for bonus fluff)

The nurse smiled as she looked at her two patients. She didn't know how long they'd been like that, but she frowned as she remembered she had to wake them up.

The teens blushed rapidly when they woke up, and they inched away from each other.

The nurse said, "Well, I hope you two enjoyed your sleep. Both of your parents are waiting outside. If you're worried that you kept them waiting, don't be, they just got here."

The teens nodded as they both prepared for what was going to happen when they opened the door.

Click

"Izu!"

"Ocha!"

"'Chako!"

Well, that happened.

Inko hugged her son, as Ochako's parents hugged their daughter. They were all smiling.

They all talked for a while. Izuku and Ochako explained what happened when their class got kidnapped. Mr. and Mrs. Uraraka thanked Izuku profusely for saving their daughter's life.

They talked normally, until the students got a message from Iida, telling them that they still, in fact, had a curfew.

The five of them walked to the entrance of the hospital.

Inko gave her goodbyes to Ochako and her parents as Izuku did the same.

Izuku and Ochako shared a look at each other. They were definitely going to see each other soon.

Inko was about to leave with her son, but then and Mrs. Uraraka stopped her.

"You can continue Inko, but we'd like to have a word with your son." The mother in question nodded and walked out of the door.

Mrs and Mr. Uraraka both looked at the teen.

"Thank you, really, and if you ever need anything from us, don't be afraid to ask."

Ochako looked at him with a smile.

He smiled back mischievously.

"Well, thank you, but I already got something from you guys."

They looked confused.

"Your daughter, she gave me her heart." He said quickly before he bolted out of the hospital and took his mothers arm.

They both ran to her car. He also figured out that she had been listening in on them. They both got into her car.

She smiled at him, "Got yourself a girlfriend, Izuku?"

He blushed, and was about to defend himself before he straightened his back slightly and looked at her.

He said playfully, "Yeah."

She smiled as she put the key into the ignition of her car and messed with her mirrors.

Meanwhile

Ochako was blushing furiously as she saw the hospital doors automatically close. Ochako's parents slowly turned back towards her.

They both saw the look on her face, and they smiled.

"Got yourself a boyfriend?" She buried her hands into her face and began floating upwards.

She looked at them with a pouty face. "Yeah! And what are you gonna do about it?"

Her parents started laughing as she released her quirk and fell to the ground.

"Well, if anyone's gonna be able to keep you safe, it'll be the boy who got first place in the sports festival."

"Yup, and didn't you say he was shy and awkward? Or that might've been last year when you met him."

Ochako blushed as they all walked towards her parent's car. She was gonna get payback on Izuku.

Inko drove Izuku back to the UA dorms, in which the students were throwing a small party to try and forget the horrors of the past two days.

When he arrived, he found that Ochako and her parents hadn't arrived yet.

He walked in and all of his classmates greeted him quickly. A lot of the students' parents were around the common room.

After a couple minutes of greetings, Izuku said goodbye to his mother and headed upstairs. He took a shower, and changed out his clothes.

He was about to head towards the boys dorms, when his head slowly shifted over to the other side.

He quickly walked through the girls dorms and to Ochako's dorm room.

He knocked on the door, assuming she wasn't here yet.

He heard shuffling in the room. The door opened to reveal Ochako, in a sports bra and sweatpants. Her hair was still wet from the shower he assumed she took. He blushed at her.

She blushed when she saw him. Her room was mostly dark, except for a small night light in the corner that showed just enough light to let her see.

"I'm sorry! I was just about to call you and ask if I could come over..."

He smiled and walked into the room, putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Well, I didn't even know you were here yet."

She giggled. Izuku closed the door behind himself.

Even though Ochako was still flustered about what he had done to her at the hospital, she couldn't help but be nice to him. Also, her parents were going to find out anyways.

They stood awkwardly for a couple seconds before a memory rang through his head.

"I've wanted to just sneak into your room and tell you how important you are to me and cuddle you 'till the morning."

He slowly smiled. "So, uh, didn't you say something about wanting to cuddle me until the morning?" He was blushing hard.

She blushed a little but as she remembered her words.

"Well… I definitely wouldn't not like it."

He smiled as his urges took over and he tackled her onto her bed. She smiled as she pulled herself up and kissed him.

They had their arms wrapped around each other and were smiling as they cuddled into each other.

He blushed as he realized that the only thing covering the top half of her was a sports bra. He was in contact with a lot of her skin. He blushed as he kissed her forehead for the 30th time.

'So soft!'

He blushed as he put his head in a position to kiss her neck.

"Hey Ochako?"

"Yeah?"

"I've wanted to tell you this for a while, but I couldn't… You're really pretty. Like most-beautiful-girl-I've-ever-met levels of pretty."

She blushed as she looked at him.

She smiled and kissed his forehead.

"Well, you're the hottest guy I've ever met, no argument there."

He blushed, before he smiled and kissed her neck sweetly. They laid there for what felt like hours of peace and pleasure.

He pulled out his phone to check the UA rules again. He checked them during the car ride, but he needed to reread them, just to make sure.

He smiled as he set down his phone. Ochako looked at him weirdly, "What were you lookin' at?"

He smiled as he heard her cute accent, "According to the school rules, as long as we don't do you know what, then we're allowed to sleep like this."

Quickly blushing at the thought of them doing you know what, she smiled at what he said.

"Really? There's nothing saying we can't spend the night in each other's dorms?"

He shook his head and smiled. She laughed at the relief she felt as she snuggled into him more.

"Then you're not leaving, mister!"

He smiled lovingly, "I would've stayed anyways!"

They fell asleep and woke up over 2 times in the past day, but the medication they took to reawaken their quirks made them tired enough to need to go to sleep again.

He nuzzled his face into her cheek.

"G'night… love you.. Ocha.."

She smiled as she rubbed his back softly and gently pushed her face into his. He fell asleep before he could finish her name.

"Love you too Izu…"

She happily fell asleep.
