Hello, everyone. Your girl's back to update another chapter for you all. The last chapter has Izuku's grandparents being very selfish while Hatsu and Haruto were still in the house. Still, their relationship did result in both Inko and Izuku being born. I don't own the canon characters as they rightfully belong to their actual owners while I only own my OCs.

Both Izuku and Ochaco were eating lunch at a nice restaurant that Izuku's aunts managed to get the two girls seats during the lunch rush. The two girls ordered a light lunch so they won't go overboard with the bill despite Izuku's aunt Hatsu saying that the bill was already taken care of.

Izuku was enjoying her day with her beloved friend. It was just the day for them, Yuzu says that she'll be back to pick up the girls whenever they are done. The green-haired girl couldn't want for anything more than her best friend by her side. Ochaco was wonderful, and pretty soon she'll be at U.A. as a student there with her hopes and dreams. Izuku wishes she could join her friend in the Hero Course, but she knows that that can't become a reality.

Ochaco felt her entire mouth was heaven right now. The brunette girl never tasted such good food before. Sure she ate some food at the Fukui mansion a few times, but the food here was something else. No wonder rich people come here all the time. The brunette girl felt her stomach was starting to get full. She figures that she should stop eating before she gets a stomach ache.

The two girls laugh and talk while they waited for their waiter to come back. Only a few weeks from now they'll be First Years soon.

"Thank you for choosing our restaurant, young ladies. Please come again," Their waiter said as he took their plants back to the kitchen.

"Thank you for serving us, sir," Izuku says politely to him.

"Yeah. You were great," Ochaco added.

Their waiter blushes a little from the comments from the two teenage girls. It's not every day that he and the others get nice comments about their services since a lot of the rich customers would complain of the tiniest mistake they made. So, it felt good to hear something nice for once.

Outside

Izuku and Ochaco decided to wait for Yuzu. After such a lunch, the two wonder if they could even eat dinner. And despite their lunch being small, it still managed to get them full.

Izuku wanted to spend more time with Ochaco before the brunette girl goes home. She wanted to go out with her best friend before their new schedule keep them apart. Seeing a little shop across the streets from the restaurant, the tiny girl decided to go there with Ochaco.

Grabbing her best friend's hand, Izuku led them to the shop while Ochaco was confused since they were supposed to wait for Yuzu to get them. Before the brunette girl could say anything, the tiny green-haired girl open the door of the shop's entrance. It was a clothing store. From what the clothes look like, Izuku could tell that they were made by a lesser-known designer. By the looks of it, the designer seems to be one of the ones that haven't made it into the world. The kind of designer that her aunt Hatsu would always tell her and her cousins.

"Welcome. Please look around if you like anything," The cashier said behind the desk.

"Thank you," Izuku replies.

Ochaco couldn't help but wonder why her best friend would take her here instead of waiting for Yuzu to pick them up. The brunette girl felt that her beloved friend was troubled by something.

"Izuku-chan, is everything okay?" The brunette girl asks quietly.

"Yeah. I... just wanted to spend more time with you alone before Yuzu comes," Izuku answers.

Ochaco blushes after hearing that her best friend just wanted to spend time alone with her without any maids or butlers in their presence. She could feel her heart beating faster than she ever felt. However, the brunette girl stopped herself from thinking this is anything other than two close friends spending more time together. Friends can go eat lunch and go shopping without any romantic suggestions to them.

The two girls look through some clothes and jewelry to see if anything catches their fancy. Ochaco was awestruck by the patterns of the clothes. Well, they aren't like the ones she sees in fashion magazines and TV. She already knows that Izuku's aunt is a very well-known fashion designer in Japan (well, Ochaco herself didn't know about Hatsu Fukui since the brunette girl was too busy training to become a Pro Hero), but she wonders if the designer had ever tried to get their designs published once before deciding to sell their art in a simple shop.

"I kind of wish I have enough money to buy one of those shorts," Ochaco thought as she look through the pants.

Izuku, meanwhile, was still looking around. She kind of wondered why she decided to leave the sport with Ochaco and dragged her poor friend with her instead of waiting for her beloved maid to get them. Perhaps she felt like wanting to do her own thing instead of waiting for her maid to babysit her?

"Don't tell your nanny to come with us on our date. Who brings their nanny to their dates? You're a big girl anyway. You can go and do as you please. Plus, your family isn't here to cosset you. You can leave without your nanny's supervision."

Izuku's eyes widen when she remembers those words from her lover. Tenko told how she should stop being so dependent on her beloved maid. Even though she loves Yuzu, Izuku does deep down admits that she wanted to leave on her own again and can't help but feel like a doll again. Being kept and watched by her own family while Yuzu unintentionally helps keep their hold over her by watching her almost all the time they spent together.

"I know that Yuzu is just doing her job, but..." Izuku couldn't finish her thought as she push it in the back of her mind.

Taking deep breaths, Izuku didn't want to make a scene in the store. She couldn't embarrass her best friend by acting like a crybaby in front of the cashier.

Suddenly, something shiny caught her attention. The tiny green-haired girl turns to her left to see a pair of silver heart-shaped necklaces that have her and Ochaco's names on them. Well, this was a big coincidence, Izuku felt that she was meant to find them in this tiny shop. After all, it's not every day that you can find a couple of necklaces that have the names of yours and your best friend.

"Hey, Izuku-chan, are you ready to leave? Yuzu-san is probably coming soon," Ochaco says as she walks towards Izuku.

Izuku quickly turns around so Ochaco won't see the necklaces. She didn't want the brunette girl to see the necklaces yet. She wanted to surprise her best friend.

"You can go ahead and wait for me, Ochaco-chan. I still want to look around," The green-haired girl says.

Thank you for reading this. Izuku and Ochaco are so cute together. I'm happy to write about them. Unfortunately, their happy time together might be put to the test once they get to U.A. soon.
