7:00AM
Izuku's and Ochako's alarms went off simultaneously. Both were extremely exhausted; the two of them only mustering a couple hours of sleep combined.
They passed each other in the common area on their way to their respective baths. They looked at each other for a bit but then just walked their separate ways. Neither of them had the words to describe last night's events or how to even handle the situation.
SCHOOL HOURS
Throughout the day, it was obvious that something had happened between the two of them. Both were always so close but seemed distant all day. They didn't walk with each other, they didn't eat lunch together, and they didn't even speak to each other all day.
The class came up with rumors as the day progressed.
"You think that they got into a fight over something?" Sero suggested.
"Neither of them seems like the arguing type so that couldn't be it" Momo pondered.
"It could be, any two people can have a falling out once they disagree on something strong enough" Tooru says.
"Should we check on them both?" Mineta asked to everyone's amazement.
"The boys can ask Midoriya-Kun what's going on and us girls will ask Ura-San!" Mina exclaimed.
"I don't really think we should be prying into their business" Fumikage calmly responded. Todoroki agreed with this statement.
Bakugou, overhearing the conversation, was getting annoyed. "I don't know why you give a fuck about that whiny ass motherfucker's problems. Besides you should know your damn place and let them resolve it themselves."
"Did Bakugou offer some constructive advice? Is this real life?" Mineta joked.
"I will FUCKING murder you, you ball-headed reject!"
Mineta turned to his peers with tears streaming down his face "help me."
Neither Midoriya or Uraraka were mad at each other. They just didn't know what they could possibly say to the other. Whenever one of them thought about it they couldn't help but feel overwhelmed.
Midoriya couldn't help but wonder if last night was how she really felt or if it was just a one-time thing. He began to think that he might have dreamed the whole thing but then there wouldn't be this awkward tension today if that were the case.
For some reason, Midoriya felt like the best plan of action would be to ask his mentor All Might for advice. What could possibly go wrong? As far as Midoriya is concerned, All Might knows everything.
After school hours, Midoriya met up with All Might at the beach where his journey started, as he requested.
"Midoriya my boy, what's on your mind?"
"All Might, I need to ask your advice on how to handle a situation."
"Sure ask away!" He swelled into his muscular form to assure Midoriya.
"Last night Uraraka kissed me and I felt really embarrassed and she left the room and we didn't talk all day and I don't know what to do what if she hates me…" (Muttering)
All Might lost his musculature and spewed blood. "Here I thought you were going to ask me about heroics. My knowledge in that is far more expansive than it is with women. I mean, I'm still single hahahaha!"
Izuku lowered his head in disappointment.
"Midoriya-Kun, do what you feel is right. I know you are not the most assertive individual but if you feel passionately about her, wear your heart on your sleeve. It appears she feels the same way about you. Remember, confidence is charming."
All Might's words always came through for him when he felt down or uncertain. Even with such an unusual topic he knew exactly what to say. There's a good reason that All Might is his idol.
Uraraka was trying to cope in her own way. She didn't know who to talk to or if she should talk to any of the girls at the school about him at all but she just wanted somebody to know it. So, she called home.
"Hey sweetie, I wasn' expectin' a call from you! How are things?" Asked Uraraka's mother.
"Tha's what I'm callin' you about ma. There's this boy."
"A boy huh? Why don' you tell me more about him?"
Uraraka talked with her mother for well over an hour about Deku-Kun, how amazing he is, how he inspired her to do her best, and how he's the reason she feels so much more confident today.
"Ura sweetie, go after him. It sounds to me tha' you feel about him the same way I felt about your dear pa. Trus' me, it'll be worth it honey. I'll talk to you soon okay?"
"Okay ma!"
She hung up with a smile. She felt so much better about this than she did before.
It's decided! Tonight, is the night they both confess their feelings.
