Uraraka's right leg couldn't stop its bouncing, not even if All Might himself held it down. And how could it not defy the strength of All Might? She was nervous! More nervous than the UA entrance exams, and the Sports Festival. What was making her so nervous, you may ask? Well, she was waiting for her date to show up.

Izuku 'Deku' Midoriya, the representative of class 1A and her best friend…

And the boy she currently had a ginormous crush on.

You see, Izuku had texted her early this morning and asked if she wanted to go to the mall and hang out. Excited at the thought, she of course said yes, and asked who else would be coming. She had assumed Iida, and maybe even Bakugo and Hatsume since they were his closest friends.

Imagine her surprise (and delight, and horror) when he said it was just going to be the two of them, alone all day today. She may have screamed into her pillow in glee and texted back saying she couldn't wait.

But delight and horror? Well of course! She was delighted to spend alone time with Izuku, since they never could due to school eating up most of their time. And if it wasn't school, it was always Iida and Bakugo tagging along. But now this was different, she was going to be alone with the boy she really liked!

And that's where the horror came from; being alone with Izuku. She was awkward when it was just the two of them, but at least with others that meant more people to talk to and a decrease in the chance of embarrassing herself. What would they even talk about? Sure they had heroes in common, but last time she checked, that was really the only fun thing the two of them had any common interest in. Things would surely be awkward if they had nothing to talk about!

So here Uraraka sat, at one of the benches at the entrance of the mall, a total nervous wreck. On top of all of that, she was nervous about what Izuku would think of her choice of attire.

Uraraka currently wore a plain white t-shirt, black jeans, black and white sneakers, and a red and black plaid shirt, with the front opened. Something simple that wasn't too flashy or 'out there'. It was stylish and comfortable, just the way she liked it.

"Uraraka!" A voice called out, and her head snapped up to locate the voice. Her heart thudded in her chest when she same him towering over the people surrounding him, a bright smile on his face as he waved.

Izuku wore a black t-shirt, blue jeans, and his signature red sneakers. The t-shirt was tight on him, showing off all the progress he's made while training.

Was the mall getting hotter?

"D-Deku!" She called back, standing up and walking towards him, meeting him halfway. "You-You look nice!"

"So do you! Thanks for coming, hope I didn't interrupt your plans for the day."

Plans? Her plans on the weekend usually consisted of sleeping, studying, and watching tv. This was a hundred times better!

"No interruption at all! We haven't exactly hung out much, so I'm glad you texted! I've actually wanted to spend some alone time with you, so I'm happy I have my chance now." She informed, cheeks growing pink at the confession. His cheeks mimicked her own, and he smiled brighter at the information.

"Me too. Feels nice just hanging out without having to worry about school and villain attacks. Speaking of, wanna start walking around? I've heard there's a few new stores and I want to see if anything catches my eye." He asked, causing her to smile and nod, eager to start this…what was this? Just two friends hanging out? Or was this a date? Was it smart to put a label on this? Would it only add to her nerves?

They started to walk together side by side, trading small talk and a few jokes here and there, each eyeing the stores as they passed. The mall was quite big, so they were sure something would catch their eye sooner or later.

And sooner was correct. They had eyed it at the same time, the 'it' being a large cardboard cutout of 13 standing outside of a small shop. Through the windows they could see tables with figures and statues on them, each showcasing off different heroes. Some they could name right away, like All Might, Endeavor, and Present Mic. Others only Izuku knew the names off, since they were underground heroes like Eraserhead who didn't get a lot of screen time on TV. And one Izuku had never seen before; it was a green figure, with black hair and giant, bulging muscles. The figure looked quite intimidating with the angry look it had on its face.

"Let's check it out Deku!" Uraraka had exclaimed, before grabbing his wrist and dragging him over to the store. He allowed himself to be pulled into the store, where they were met with more figures of heroes. Some seemed to be straight out of the factory, while others seemed to have been collecting dust for a while.

As Izuku was eyeing different figures, unable to decide which one to add to his ever-growing collection of heroes, Uraraka only eyed on figure in particular. The figure was of 13 herself, fingers of her suit opened to allow use of her quirk. Two small children, a boy and a girl, hid behind her, clutching onto her legs. A small plaque gave a brief backstory behind the scene, one Uraraka remembered.

She had seen the exact pose in a documentary she watched of 13 as a kid. The heroine had managed to enter a burning building and locate two children. But debris started falling around them, so 13 had used her quirk in order to carve a path through to safety. This was back in her earlier days, right after 13 stopped being a sidekick and became a full-fledged hero.

But as she eyed the price, her mood soured a tiny bit. The thing costed over 6,500 yen, which was way too steep for her. Food mattered more than plastic after all, even if the plastic was of her favorite hero.

"Oh cool! I remember reading about this back when I was young, when 13 was just starting out! You planning on getting it Uraraka?" Izuku questioned after making his way over to her, noticing her intense stare of the statue. The brunette let out a small, awkward laugh while rubbing the back of her head.

"I wish, but 6,500 yen is a little too steep for my pocket." She sighed, but kept a smile. "Oh well! Let's keep walking around and see if anything else catches our attention." She said.

"Actually, why don't you wait for me outside? I have to talk to the cashier about something." Izuku suggested, causing Uraraka to blink in confusion. Nevertheless, she nodded and agreed, before exiting the store.

It would be a solid minute or two before Izuku walked out, bag in hand and a smile on his face. Uraraka cocked her head in confusion.

"What's in the bag?" She asked, before her confusion grew when he out stretched his arm and tried handing her the bag.

"A little gift." Was his simple answer, smile never leaving his face. It didn't take a genius to put two and two together, it was obvious what he had done. But to be sure, Uraraka looked down and stared at the bags opening, and saw the top of a box. On it was the face (or helmet) of 13 herself.

"Deku! I can't accept that! You spent so much on…it wouldn't feel right." She protested, causing him to frown for a second. But an idea came to him, causing him to grin.

"Hmm, well since I can't find it a good home, I could always give it to Kacchan. I'm sure he needs new objects for targeting practice…" He trailed off, noticing her look of horror at the thought. "If only I knew someone in close proximity who loved 13. I wonder where I can find someone like that?" He asked innocently, causing her to huff in annoyance.

"Fine. I'll accept it." Uraraka grumbled, small smile forming as she took the bag from Izuku, before grabbing his wrist again and leading him away. "Let's find some more cool stores!"

A total of three hours would pass before Izuku and Uraraka had traveled throughout about 90 percent of the mall. They visited countless stores that ranged from clothing to action figures/statues of heroes, from video games to movies, and so on. They each were holding multitude of bags, with the brunette blushing brightly from everything her green haired friend had bought her. He had been very adamant about buying her everything that had caught her eyes: clothes, food, accessories, etc. After a while, and using every excuse she could think of to not accept his gifts, she gave up and accepted them without a fight. She felt bad for him wasting all of his money, but was overjoyed with how hard he was trying to make her happy. It showed he cared for her, which made her heart thud against her chest.

"Are you sure you're fine with buying me all of this stuff Deku? We haven't left the mall yet; we're still allowed to return everything…" She trailed off, hopping he'd reconsider. She was honestly afraid to go home and look at the receipts to see how much he had spent in total. The greenette had bought stuff for both of them, but the stuff for her outweighed the stuff for him.

"Yes Uraraka, I'm sure. Everyone deserves something nice once and a while, even you. I'm just happy being that one that can give you these nice things." The hero to be smiled, showing that he was being honest.

How could someone be so nice?!

"But what about you? Don't you deserve something nice?"

A few things went through Izuku's mind at that moment. Should he try to flirt and say she was all he needed? Maybe ask for another date? Ask for a kiss perhaps? Countless options drove around his mind, before whatever god existed decided to help him out.

'Don't forget to catch the Perseid Meteor Shower, a dazzling meteor shower that can be watched in the upcoming weeks!' A newscaster announced as they passed a cellphone case kiosk, where the owner was watching the news.

"Meteor shower?! Awesome! I haven't watched one since I was little with my parents!" Uraraka exclaimed, literal stars in her eyes. She blushed under Izuku's stare, and gave an awkward laugh. "S-Sorry…I guess I'm a bit of an 'astronomy' nerd."

"No need to apologize! I did the same thing when my dad wasn't overseas, meteor showers hold a special place it my heart." He informed with a smile. "You know, maybe that could be my 'nice thing'? Would you want to watch it with me?"

Uraraka beamed brightly and nodded enthusiastically, loving the idea of having another…date(?) with the greenette.

"Of course!"

(Hours later. Izuku's place)

Izuku hummed to himself as he got ready for bed, a smile on his face as he remembered his trip to the mall with Uraraka. He hoped she had enjoyed it as much as he did. The best part of today (besides kissing the brunette's cheek after walking her home) was the fact they were having another…date(?) in the next coming weeks! How could this day get any better?

Izuku's phone began to vibrate on his nightstand, piquing his curiosity. Grabbing it and turning it on, he was surprised at the text displayed on the screen.

Momo Yaoyorozu

Can you help me out tomorrow? If you can, do you have a suit?

(So…hi? Yeah, sorry for being MIA/AFK. College has been kicking my ass and I've been sick with a stomach virus the past few days. Also my original plan was to do 8 dating chaps in a row, but I HATE writing romance, so now I have a new idea. Do 2 date chaps, then some story, then 2 date chaps, etc. So yeah, I'm gonna try to get the new date chap out by this weekend, so wish me luck and thanks for reading!)
