Part 2: Feelings revealed
There was silence in ground Beta after Bakugo had asked Deku if he had gotten his power from all Might. Unknown to the two of them Ochako was watching the two of them not far away.
"But how could that even be possible," she thought before she noticed Deku looked serious as he looked right at Bakugo.
"So what if I say its true," he said.
"Then you and I are going to fight," Bakugo said holding up his right hand. "Right here, right now," he said looking serious.
"Wait what are you thinking, were not even suppose to be here right now, lets just," Deku said.
"Shut up and fight," Bakugo said before blasting at him but Deku jumped out of the way and dodged him.
"I told you to wait," Izuku said looking serious.
"Come on, I want to know why All Might chose a nobody like you," Bakugo said before a female voice spoke up getting both of their attention.
"That's enough," Ochako said standing in the middle of the road with her fists clenched.
"Uraraka what are you doing here," Izuku said looking nervous while thinking, "Did she hear what we were talking about,".
"If you want to fight Deku then your going to have to fight me too, you just didn't lose to him that day you lost to the both of us," she said looking serious.
"Stay out of this, this between me and him," Bakugo said setting off an explosion in his hand making Ochako look nervous but she was still determined.
"Are you forgetting he helped save you, he risked his life," Ochako said. "Deku is a hero and he even saved me on the day of the entrance exam and I heard what you said to him,".
"Uraraka," Izuku said.
"I thought I said," Bakugo said before noticing someone heading towards them.
"I thought something might be happening when I saw Uraraka heading out this way, after all none of you are suppose to be out this late," Alll Might said walking towards them with a calm look on his face.
"All Might," Izuku said.
"Why," Bakugo said getting their attention, "Why did you pick Deku?".
"He was powerless, yet despite he tried to save you that day and I thought he deserved a chance," All Might said.
"Its my fault, Im the reason you had to retire, that you lost your power," Bakugo said looking down as All Might walked over to him.
"That wasn't your fault, I was always going to lose my power," All Might said before standing in front of him, "Im sorry I didn't notice that you were in pain, you've been feeling this way for a while," he said.
"He was blaming himself," Izuku thought noticing the Bakugo looking down.
"All that matters is that your all safe, I know that you can still be a great hero," All Might said, "If you have the time, I would like the two of you to listen and I would ask that both of you not tell anyone," he said looking back at Ochako who nodded in understanding. All Might then went on to tell the story about the truth of his power.
Along with giving it to Izuku. "So that's it then huh," Bakugo said as he took a seat on the ground.
"So you didn't have a quirk until the entrance exams," Ochako said looking at Deku.
"The first time I used it was when I took down that zero pointer, I didn't have good control of it back then and that's why I kept breaking my bones," Izuku said looking at his arms.
"So out of the three of us here, who else knows about the two of you," Bakugo said.
"Principal Nezu and recovery girl along with others, other then Uraraka you're the only other student that knows the truth," All Might said.
"And you don't want this to get out or else there will be trouble," Bakugo said before taking a breath, "Don't worry I wont tell anyone,".
"I wont tell anyone either, you can count on me," Ochako said looking determined.
"Thank you, the both of you, I don't deserve this, now come on we should go before were spotted," All Might said before gesturing for them to move.
"Of course," Izuku said as the three of them followed all might outside ground beta.
"You idiot you should have kept quiet," Bakugo said looking at Izuku.
"Yeah I know," he said.
"Well don't get ahead of yourself, get control of that power and then the two of us will have a proper rematch and then Ill prove Im even stronger then you," Bakugo said looking serious.
"Then Ill get even stronger," Izuku said looking serious.
"What, Im going to be better then you," Bakugo said looking annoyed.
"Yeah but Im going to be even stronger then you," Izuku said.
"Oh yeah bring it on," Bakugo said while in front of them All Might was smiling. Thinking the two of them had started on their path to become proper rivals.
Once they reached the UA dorms Ochako and Izuku waved goodbye to All Might while Bakugo headed inside. The two of them were then standing in the common area.
"Well I should probably head to bed now, thanks for your help by the way," Izuku said rubbing the back of his head, "Things could have gotten real bad if the two of us had actually ended up fighting,".
"Don't worry about it, listen theres something I wanted to actually talk to you about," Ochako said looking nervous.
"Yeah sure what is it," Izuku said looking confused.
"Do you remember the Luce and Leon, the two we met at the licensing exam?" She asked.
"Oh yeah those two were awesome, Im sure the two of them will make a great team once they graduate since Luce can freeze people still and Leon could focus on attacking," Deku said looking happy which made Ochako smile as well.
"You don't really change do you Deku," she said.
"Oh sorry," Izuku said looking down.
"The thing is, me and Luce met before we met up with you and Leon and the two of us were talking," Ochako said looking down.
"Yeah what about," Izuku said.
"Turns out the two of them are actually a couple, they started dating after they finished middle school," she said making Izuku look surprised.
"Wow, Im happy for them they seem like a really nice couple," Izuku said remembering when they were saying goodbye after they finished the exam.
"But it took them almost losing each other to get together," Ochako said before stepping closer to Izuku.
"Uraraka," Izuku said.
"Deku, I thought about keeping these feelings away because I know how hard your working to be a hero, but I would rather be by your side then wonder whats going to happen to you," she said.
"The truth is your amazing,".
"Thanks, but I wouldn't have made this far without support, after all it took going to Hatsume to find out I could use my legs instead of my arms," Izuku said.
"But your already a hero to me," Ochako said smiling making him look surprised.
"Well I think your great too, I think becoming a hero to support your parents is great, I know you can do it," Izuku said.
"Listen Deku, it turns out that I like you," Ochako said blushing making Izuku blush as well as he realised what she meant.
"Wait romantically," he said and Ochako nodded looking down.
"Im sorry for dropping this on you after everything and I know it could be tough but I decided today that I would tell you how I feel," she said looking down.
"Uraraka," Izuku said before thinking of all their times together. The day the two of them met and how she stood up for him after the entrance exam when she wanted to give him some of her points. Then how he felt whenever she got to close.
"I feel the same," Izuku said blushing a little.
"Really," Ochako said stepping closer before noticing how close they were, "Sorry," she said stepping back a little.
"Listen I really don't know a lot about dating, but I do know I care a lot about you and if your okay with it I would like to go out with you," Izuku said looking serious.
"Im sure I was asking you first Deku," she said smiling making him look embarrassed.
"Right sorry," he said rubbing the back of his head, "So are we together now," he said. Ochako looked serious before stepping close to him and kissing him on the cheek.
"That answer your question, we should get to bed since we have go to class tomorrow, good night Deku," she said before heading to the elevator while Izuku looked surprised as he put a hand on the cheek she had kissed.
Once she got back to her room Ochako sat on her bed with her hands on her face, "I actually kissed him, it wasn't on the lips but it was still a kiss," she thought before taking a breath.
"Still it feels kind of nice, having a boyfriend," she thought smiling before falling back on her bed. But as she and Izuku were about to fall asleep. The two of them had smiles on their faces after letting their feelings out. The only question left now was how were their classmates going to react to the news.
