[Hello?]
"Hey Ma"
[Oh My! Pony! Is that you!?]
Pony smiled as she heard her mother's voice. Pony had decided to give her family a call, and it was all thanks to Izuku the other day. She was thankful as she had finally been able to speak to her family back in the states.
"Yeah Mom, it's me," Pony said "How is everyone?" She asked
[We're all fine sweetie!] Her mother said with glee [We've been more worried about you, how are you?] Pony's mother asked
"I'm fine Ma" Pony said "I've been learning what it means to be a hero, I've made some amazing friends, I'm learning more Japanese, I'm having a great time here Ma... I wish you were here" Pony said
[Ah, come on now, ya gonna make me cry] Her mother said [But we're always with you because-]
"Because you're in my heart, I know," Pony said
Her mom laughed on the other end, [Good! And don't get you forget that, young lady!]
"I won't Ma," Pony said with a smile
[Good] Pony's mom said [Now, sweetheart, there's something I want to know]
Pony was now a bit nervous but also confused, wondering what her mother want to ask, "What is it Ma?" Pony asks
[have you found yourself a boy yet?] Pony's mom asked with a teasing tone
"MA!" Pony cried
[I'm just asking sweetie] Pony's mom said with a laugh [But you still haven't answered my question~]
Pony's face began to blush as she thought about it, "Well... there is this one boy" Pony said sheepishly
[Aw! I knew it!] Pony's mother cried with glee [Come on now, tell me!]
Pony's blush intensified, "Well... his name is Izuku" Pony began "He's a really sweet guy Ma, he's a bit shy at first but after knowing him he's kind and just the sweetest person, not to mention he's also very smart, even helping out with a bit of my Japanese and he's just so brave! He rushes into danger in order to save people and he's... he's just so amazing mom"
[He sounds like a real keeper] Pony's mom told her
"He really is Ma..." Pony said
there was silence between the two for a moment before her mother spoke up, [But you haven't asked him out yet huh? or even told him about your feelings?]
Pony shook her head, "No, I haven't" Pony said
[Why sweetie?] Pony's mom asked
"I don't know Ma," Pony said "I guess, I'm just scared, I mean he just amazing mom, people over here in Japan already know him for being a real hero and maybe... maybe I'm not good enough for him," Pony said
[Oh sweetie] Pony's mom began [You are good enough for him, Your amazing in your own way and you're the biggest hero I know, you are also the sweetest girl in the whole wide world]
Pony became a bit embarrassed, "Ma... you're making me feel embarrased" Pony said
[But It's true! Pony if he can't accept you for who you are then he ain't worth your time sweetie!] Pony's mom told her [But you also won't know his answer unless you try and tell him, so try that first! come on, be brave and get your man!]
Pony chuckled a little, "Your right Ma," Pony said "Thanks"
[Anytime sweetheart] Pony's mom said [I gotta go, Your father needs me, but We'll call you later]
"Alright, bye love you," Pony told her mother
[Love you too sweetie and I'll pass on your love to the others]
And with that, the phone call ended and Pony felt a wave of relief flow through her. It had been great to talk to her Mom, and she hoped she got to talk to them more later on in the day. She had to thank Izuku later, he was the one who had helped her and who understood what it was like to be far from family, but he also had helped her realize that she should get into contact with her family more.
As she thought about Izuku again, she remembered that he had been acting weird all day. and she wondered what was bothering him. At first, she had chalked it up to him having a bad day, but the more things had progressed, the more she realized that it was something deeper.
'He helped me... maybe it's my turn to help him!' Pony told herself
and with that, she left to go find Izuku and talk to him, hoping she could help him get out of whatever funk he was in.

Today was an odd day, not odd in the "Oh Aizawa's up to his old tricks" or "Villains are attacking us" odd, but a normal odd, specifically, Izuku was acting a little odd, like out of his behavior odd, the whole day. Izuku seemed completely out of when classes began, he was hardly paying attention and he wasn't even doing his signature mumbling. He was spaced out more than usual, even in heroics class, which was very odd. Well as odd as the green-haired teen could be. We are talking about the boy with multiple Quirks after all.
Anyway...
As said before, Izuku's behavior was acting odd enough that the girls of 1-B caught on to it, and it was indeed odd to them. They had known the boy for weeks and never once saw him act like this, truth be told, it was quite worrying. Some of the girls had chalked it up to him just having an off day but some felt that there was something else going on...
Izuku was currently on a bench near the 1-B dorm house and he was just sitting there and looking at one of his notebooks he had.
'Why do I always feel like this on this day?' Izuku asked 'I thought I moved on from this?'
He thought about it, it's been years since that day but it still hit him pretty hard. But then again, how could it not still hurt him? It was the moment his entire life changed completely.
"Izuku!"
Izuku was taken out of his thoughts rather quickly only to see Pony running over to him. He was a bit surprised to see her, but her presence was not unwelcomed.
"Oh, hey Pony," Izuku said with a weak smile "What's up?" he asked
"I should really be asking you that," Pony said
Izuku got a little worried, but he tried to play it off as confusion, "W-What do you mean?" He asked
"Don't be like that Izuku" She said with a bit of a pleading tone, "I know that somethings up"
"I'm fine Pony, honest"
"Yeah and pigs fly," Pony said "come on, you can tell me what's wrong, please," She told him
Izuku looked at her and he thought about it, he thought about telling her but he just... he couldn't. He hadn't told anyone really about his past, or even about that day, what some did know was that he was a late bloomer and that was it.
Pony, however, could tell that he was very hesitant to talk about it. Whatever it was that was bothering him, it had to be deep, it had to be something that he's been holding onto for so long. But how could she convince him to talk about it?
"I-I called my mom today," Pony said
Izuku looked at her and smiled his signature smile, for some reason, gone was the fake smile, "That's great!" He said
"Thank you, but I couldn't have done it without you," She told him
Now, Izuku was genuinely confused, "What do you mean?" he asked
Pony sighed, "I called them because of you," He said "You listened to me about how I had felt so alone here, and while you didn't have to, you still did because you knew how I felt, Because of you and because you understood... So please, Izuku, tell me what's wrong" She said
Izuku looked at her and then looked to the ground, he was really surprised that he had helped her with her lonely feeling, he didn't even realize it. Still... could he really tell her? He looked back to Pony and looked into her eyes, and he saw the honestly in her eyes, in her deep Prussian blue eyes and he knew he could trust her.
"When I was 6, I went to go see what my quirk was," Izuku said "However when the diagnosis was complete the doctor told me and my mother that I was Quirkless"
Pony looked at him with wide eyes but then her surprise turned into confusion, "But then how do you have a Quirk?" Pony asked
"It turned out I was a late-bloomer, My quirk didn't manifest until my body was ready or else it would've destroyed my young body," Izuku said
Pony thought about it and it made sense to her, a Quirk like his would be dangerous in the hands of a young 6-year-old boy, and the repercussions of the quirk... she couldn't imagine what would happen to his body at such an age. "That makes sense but what does that have to do with you being out of it today?"
"Well, when kids found out I was Quirkless, I was mocked, teased, and worse, I was bullied... up until I attended UA"
Pony looked in shock. She didn't know how to respond, she couldn't even form words. She couldn't have imagined what he had gone through his whole life. And all because he was different... how could people, even young kids, do that to someone who was deemed powerless for most of his life
"And every time that the day of my Diagnosis comes up I just... I just have an off day so to speak" Izuku said
Pony looked at him and she wanted to comfort him as she could tell this was a hard subject for him, and she quickly took his hand in hers and it shocked Izuku and made him blush a little as he looked back at her
"P-Pony-?"
"I'm sorry," She told him in English, but she switched to Japanese, "I'm sorry that all of that happened to you, Izuku, but I want you to know that if you ever want to talk about this, I'm here, and so are the other girls," Pony said as her heart began to beat at a rapid pace.
Izuku slowly began to smile again and Pony smiled back at him. Before the tears fell he wiped them away and nodded and looked back at her. Pony looked at him, and before he could thank her properly, she leaned over to him quickly and pressed her lips against his, which shocked Izuku as his eyes widened but melt into the kiss.
Pony then pulled away and looked at Izuku and the both of them looked to be in a dazed state, before Pony regained her senses and she quickly got up and looked at Izuku who also regained himself at that moment and looked up at her
"I-I-I'm sorry!" Pony cried before running off
Izuku quickly got up and tried to stop her, "Ah! P-Pony w-wait!" He cried out but she had already run off back to the dorm house. Izuku just groaned and he slumped back into the bench sighed as he contemplated what had just happened
"Man... how can this get-" He quickly stopped himself 'No, No, not gonna jinx myself this time! not gonna happen, I mean what else could the world possibly throw at me? ... Oh God Damnit!'
Unbeknownst to him, three different pairs of eyes were watching the scene in secret and two hearts felt broken...
