Reviewmonkey4u: I think it's a ship more likely to happen, after Uraraka of course. They have shown hints that they have some kind of feeling towards each other. Social anxiety Izuku, calmly sitting right next to momo.
She's also pretty critical of him, which just might help balance out his impulsiveness. (He also was 11 years old in chapter 5, if anyone want explaination for the shaving bit, teens can go into early puberty, i read that somewhere and i rolled with it)
My bio is also a new thing, i put the next to chapter status in it, so you'll be able to keep up, along with what date the chapers will be posted.
Chapter 8:
Izuku was right, they were really eager to have him. He got an email back saying that he has to finish school until vacation, he also was allowed to study in some summer classes, to "catch up.", fine he doesn't know everything, yet. But he'll catch up in less than a week, or exactly a week.
When he would finish his 2 year scholarship, he'd be in the end of his first year of high school when he finished his diploma, or potential diploma's
He sat in his last day of school when his teacher decided to speak up, "Congrats Midoriya, hope you have a nice time with your scholarship on I-Island." He said and nodded at him.
Izuku smiled back and his face turned red, "T-Thank you sensei." He stuttered out.
His two friends turned back at him, "You didn't tell us?!" They said in unison.
Izuku's jaw dropped, 'I knew i forgot something.'. He nodded and looked down at his notebook, "Sorry! I totally forgot, this is going to be the last day for me."
He felt someone punch his arm, Taiki looked at him. "Why did that hurt my fist?" He then started to poke his arm. "Flex your biceps please." He said casually.
He followed his order, and frowned at him in confusion. "Holy shit."
Haruna questioned her cousin, "What?"
"He's built like a rock."
"Really? Let me see?" She reached over and squeezed his flexing bicep. His face turned red, 'A girl is touching my bicep, oh god.'
"When did this happen?" Taiki questioned.
"Y-Years ago. I got trained for some new sharp props I got for my birthday." He said hinting at the weapons part.
"Woah," Haruna said, "You'll make all the ladies swoon, Midoriya-kun."
His face still red, "I-I'm trying to focus on my education more." He stuttered, "I'm sure the glasses will come in handy." He said truthfully.
The pair grinned, "Glad you like them, we got a crazy scientist vibe from you back then. Guess we weren't wrong."Taiki said and grinned.
Izuku grinned, "Guess you didn't"
Once he arrived home he could hear two voices chatting, walking inside the living room he saw aunt Mitsuki. Whenever his mom and Mitsuki had tea, Kacchan tagged along. Once he notices the quietness outside of the chatting. His shoulders slumped.
"Hello Mitsuki-san." He said politely as he dropped his bag at its usual place. "Is Kacchan still mad at me?" He asked.
"I think so, he's been both kind of sad and angry, his temper has gone through the roof." She said.
"Oh," He said, "I'll make sure to visit him before I leave."
Mitsuki's gaze on him softened, "He'll come around kid, don't worry about it. I'll try and make sure he stays in line. We don't want him calling his friends extras again do we?"
Izuku let out a small chuckle, "No we don't. If you'll excuse me, I will be packing my stuff right now." He said as he excused himself to his room.
Unlocking his computer he looked at the things he needed, "Unnecessary for me to bring a lot of clothes, growing spurts are not treating me well. Maybe donate a part. I definitely have to bring my custom supplies with me. Computer is a basic. The hero figurines definitely have to come with, well. Maybe not all, but the rare ones. So Eraserhead, Ms Joke and definitely bring Gunhead-sensei as a thanks. Computer is obviously coming with, it's high tech and comes from I-Island. Any projects? Lets just drop them from now, But I will be taking my arduino's with me. Weapons? Bo staff and the uh, practice sai's? Best keep in shape there. Do I still have All Might's American dream work out? I'm pretty sure he mailed it to me once. I can maybe alter them to what they have available there." His muttering got interrupted by his dad.
"Hey kid, need help?"
Izuku contemplates it, "Sure," He said and brightened up, "I wasn't allowed to bring my robots with me on the plane right?"
His dad shook his head, "We're shipping your robots out today, so you'll arrive at the same time as them, you'll have to ask your uncle to help and pick them up."
The boy nodded, "Do you think I'd need like, half of my clothes?"
The detective shook his head, "You're growing, I don't recommend it. We do need to get new shoes before you leave, don't come at me, but you need to lose the, red shoes only." He said and rubbed the back of his neck.
Izuku frowned at the thought but nodded, "Red stands out too much. I'm bringing my bo staff and the practice sai's." He said, not leaving any space to argue at the end.
Shrugging, his dad walked to his desk, "You bringing your computer with you right? Do you need a bag with your arduinos on the plane?"
Izuku nodded and started placing the mini robots together, "I'll get you something for it, be right back!" His dad said and speed walked to his room.
"Maybe I should give Kacchan my old clothes, although that might be too big for him." He began his mumbling festive once again.
His dad leaned against the doorframe, looking at his kid proudly. He accomplished a lot for his age, mini genius and mini fighter. When he becomes a hero, he'll be the best one around. "Hey Zuku?" He called out.
Izuku snapped out of his and directed his gaze at his dad shouldering a bookbag. "Thought this would come in handy," He said and handed it to him, "It used to be mine when i was in high school, the space in it is perfect for your arduino's, it has mini pockets with padding on the inside." He explained.
Izuku's heart clenched, "Your old bag?" He gave his dad a hug, "Thank you, it means a lot to me."
The green haired kid liked the way his new bag looked like, it's only a bit worn out, enough space for his favourite thick books and of course his notebook.
His eyes widened before he got out one of his old notebooks, 'Hero analysis no°1', here, take a look at the first page.
His dad was confused but accepted the book anyways, following his instructions he saw something that surprised him.
It was him, his first entry for his multiple series notebook, is him. His heart clenched,
'Baby sat me when mom was doing groceries.'
'Made sure mom eats, sometimes she doesn't'
'Got me a robot!'
'Helps me with my nightmares.'
conclusion: He is my favourite person.
He felt tears well in his eyes, he grabbed the kids shoulders and pulled him into a hug. "How is your writing so good at the age of four?" He asked his voice cracking a bit.
"If you're going to cry then I am too!" Izuku warned.
"You got emotional from your mom." He sniffed and wiped away some tears, "I'm asking your mom to marry me at the airport."
"Everyone will be with us too." Izuku said and grinned. "You keep mom happy, thank you."
"We, keep your mom happy." The detective chuckled, "You're getting tall, a few more months and you'll be like nighteye!"
"You've met him?" His eyes snapped to the detective.
The man nodded, "Toshi is my best friend, of course i met his sidekicks. We lost some contact over time."
"What was he like?"
"Imagine going to church, accidentally leaving your phone on when you start to play a game, and seeing the priest make direct eye contact with you."
Even though Izuku isn't a religious person, he winced, "Are you talking out of experience?" He teased.
His dad gulped and nodded, "My mom had the slipper ready to go."
Izuku looked at him in horror, "I'm so sorry." He said sarcastically.
"You've been hanging out with Natsuo too much."
"Actually not, it has been Kacchan who is corrupting me. He got this new video game recently and it allows him to talk with his teammates during matches. What I heard coming out of his mouth was so bad, I threatened him with soap." He chuckled sadly. "I'm going to visit him before i leave sunday."
"That might be best. Mitsuki already left, you would've heard her if you weren't muttering all the damn time." The man teased, "You'd also hear your mom shout that dinner is ready."
"I'm so glad I taught you the basics of cooking, who knows what they'll feed you there? They're a sciencetific academy, not a food critic one."
"Actually they teach food science there too. I think most of the time that their classes are in charge of the cantine. Or they have robots there to do that! Oh imagine!" He began to fanboy about the possibilities that could arise.
His parents just looked at each other and chuckled, "The usual." Inko teased her son.
His face turned red, "Thank you for being so supportive mom, and dad."
Their faces lit up with a smile, "As much as we'll miss you, we got to let you go on one point, it was earlier than expected but i'll accept that. And if you ever need any recipes, you know my phone number from your heart."
"Just remember to use a condom if it ever comes to that." His dad said casually.
He mentally got a nosebleed, he nearly spit out his water, "Dad!" He complained.
"Oh boy, we do need to talk to him about that, do you think you got it? Or do I have to?" His mom asked her soon to be fiance.
"N-No!" They ignore their kids' pleas.
"I'll handle it, I'm pretty sure we have a few condoms laying around." He winked.
That's when he really spit out his water, "Please, no more." He asked desperately.
Inko looked at her kid weirdly, "What, it's human nature." She teased.
"We just got to make sure that you know about it before we leave you, not a lot of kids are so handsy? At the age of 14 to 16, but precautions have to be taken." His dad said strictly.
He buried his head in his hands and groaned softly, "I'm going to die."
"You gotta roll it out like this, Zuku, are you listening?"
His brain started malfunctioning.
"Do you have red versions of these shoes?" He asked the cashier.
They shook their head, "Only black ones, sorry kid."
His dad looked at him, "No." He deadpanned. "We're keeping these Nikes," He opened the box and showed it to him, SB charges canvas, they're fine. "We're evolving your clothing style Zuku." He said and nodded teasingly at him.
"Next store we're going to is a secondhand one. You, as a future hero, must also realise how bad new clothes are for the environment." Izuku nodded at his statement, fully agreeing with it.
"Plus most of their clothes are going to be your size, literally, how did Toshi buff you up so fast and good?" He questioned.
"It was hell." He said sheepishly and rubbed the back of his neck, "I had to drag a fridge, with him on it."
"Oh dear." His dad clicked his tongue, "Here it is, don't get distracted by the books. I know, it's extremely tempting. I've been there."
Izuku coughed to cover his laugh, "I'll try not to." He said and straightened his back before following the detective inside of the store.
"We need to get you a suit too, can't have my kid win an award without a good suit." He said and ruffled the green hair.
Izuku's eyes brightened when he heard his dad say that, "But in this store, we'll find some good pants for you, maybe even old heroes merch!"
If he wasn't bright enough last time, he sure is now. They greeted the owner and moved to the clothing section, "Look! These are nice." His dad immediately said as he held up a white hoodie and a red sweater.
Izuku nodded, "Put it in the cart!" He started blowing himself.
"No way." He said softly, "Dad, these. We have to." He held up a few t-shirts with it saying, 't-shirt' on it, depending on which colour, 'blue t-shirt' one is very nice.
His dad laughed, "Ok kid, throw 'em in the cart." He quickly pulled out a t-shirt of his own, showing a green one with a small squared All Might on it.
"He looks funny there." The kid chuckled. "I found these khaki's! along with some black pants, from a store called Dickies? It sounds American." He shrugged and threw it in the cart.
"You need these too." The detective said as he held up a colour patched jacket, "These stand out but fit with your current style." He suggested.
Izuku looked skeptical and thought of the outfit combinations, then he nodded, "Only if i can get that dark green bomber jacket. It looks straight out of a Hollywood movie."
"Deal." His dad said as he threw both items in the cart. "Moving on, need any glasses? You broke your last pair." He pointed out.
The young Midoriya rubbed his temples, "I barely used them, but i think i need to now. Getting them lasered just sounds painful." He said.
"Next store, the glasses store!" His dad said enthusiastically.
"Literally, how are you so full of energy?"
"This is bonding time with my kid before he leaves," He said, "And i didn't stay up programming." He teased.
The green haired teenager rubbed the back of his neck, "That's true." He said and looked at the corner, a mini cafe.
"Do you want to get some coffee?" He asked his dad.
Izuku nodded and rubbed his eyes, "Caffeine sounds great." They walked and looked at the vending machine, "Can i get a latte macchiato?" He asked his dad.
The detective nodded and pressed the buttons, "Let's sit down there," He said and pointed at the table by the window.
The teenager nodded and left the cart by the entrance, "I'm going to the Bakugo's after this."
"Good luck with that." His dad said and sat down comfortably.
"How are you going to pop the question?"
"Well, I had a plan, you're involved. " The detective leaned over, "When you're heading to the final gate, where we can't enter anymore, you'll start waving to your mother, and after a few more waves, you're going to make a 'turn around' gesture, and then i'll be on one knee ready to pop the question."
Izuku grinned, "Sounds like a great plan." He said and thanked the waiter for their coffee. "How long have you been planning this?"
"Since I got into a relationship with your mom, the scholarship is a bonus. " His dad grinned and took a sip of his coffee.
Izuku smiled, "Picture for mom?" He held up his phone, his dad nodded and took another sip of his coffee, click! "I like this picture, the old cafe, bookshelves behind you, foggy windows and you drinking coffee. You're literally in your element right now." The green bean teased.
The man laughed and leaned back, "Have you met me? Of course I'm in my element! Toshi can no doubt vouch for that."
They laughed.
"This suit is kind of baggy."
"Well that's because you're going to grow eventually, that plaid tie would look great with that light beige sweater we bought."
"I really liked that gray waistcoat, I would wear it casually." Izuku pointed out.
"Suspenders?" The detective suggested.
"Let's add those, and that thin bowtie! It really looked like that one guy's outfit, what's he called again? The one from Fantastic beast."
His dad shrugged, "You lost me."
Izuku frowned, "Well," He shrugged, "What's next?"
"The glasses, how did i forget about that?" Izuku facepalm.
The girl who was supposed to help them studied Izuku's face, which caused it to turn red.
"Your hair is big and takes all the attention, along with the freckles on your face, literally it's everywhere. Quite cute. I suggest something gray or light coloured frame, and round? a bit oval shape."
The detective nodded, "Which ones do you recommend?"
She led them to a table, "Make yourself comfortable, i'll be back with options."
Izuku nodded and sat down, not even a few seconds later he felt his dad lean over, "She's around your age! Try and get her number." He teased.
Turning even redder than before he shook his head rapidly, "I-I can't! Plus i'm leaving tomorrow!" He reasoned.
"Have you ever heard of long distance relationships?"
"Yes, and no, i'm not going to ask for her number." He said standing his ground.
His dad looked like he wanted to say something before the girl came back with about three glasses, "So, first one, these are on the oval round shape side, light, no frame, just glasses, the temples are gray, and no frame around the actual lenses."
Izuku tried them on and looked at the mirror next to him, shaking his head apologetically. He put them back in their place, "I don't think i fit them."
The girl bit her lip, "Try these," She handed him another pair, "These are all lightweights, so, the thin frame is gray, the oval round shaped side, and the bridge isn't huge or pokes out." He looked in the mirror.
"I like this one, is there another one you suggest?"
"This," She held another pair, "The exact same, but black, if you ever want to stand out, these are the way to go."
"We'll take both of them." His dad spoke up.
"Will do sir, be back in an hour and they'll be ready."
"-2.00 is my eye strength." The green bean spoke up.
The girl nodded and walked into the back, the duo left the store.
-1 hour later-
"Thank you! I can finally see!" Izuku said dramatically, feeling the caffeine rush coming in.
The girl giggled, "No problem!"
"Have a good day!" The green haired kid said as he dragged his dad out of the store. "Mom will be happy that i'm finally using my glasses." He muttered.
"She can get quite annoyed when you keep asking what's on tv." His dad said with a matter-of-fact tone.
His phone rang, "Tsukauchi here." Izuku held his shopping bags tighter.
"Yes sir, I'll be right at the scene ETA is 7 minutes." He hung up and looked at Izuku, "Come on, we got another criminal in the bag."
Izuku grinned and stepped into the car, placing the bags in front by his feet. "Any details?"
His dad shook his head, "Nothing. We just need to get a few statements and leave. Boss just noticed that my GPS was on and parked nearby."
"Is the scene secured?" The detective questioned, a police officer nodded, "Witnesses by the ambulances?" they nodded once again. "Everything secured, quirk suppressants on the villain?"
"Izuku, you can come out, just observe the scene, and see if I missed anything." He shouted and walked to the detained villain.
Izuku looked around, there are a few blood stains on the alleyways wall, he flinched, his eyes widened when he saw a pro hero talking to one of the officers.
"Holy shit, the R-Rated hero; Midnight!" He fanboyed softly, making his way towards her as the officers left the hero alone, he was about his height, that's funny.
"Hello Midnight-san, may i please have your signature?" He asked, holding out his usual notebook infront of her face.
You can't shake off some hobbies can you?
Her eyes roamed his face, then his body. She licked her lips, "Anything for a handsome guy like you." She winked and signed his book. "What do you say, we get out of here, together? Those glasses really attracted me." She whispered bluntly in his ears.
He got so red, you don't even know. "I-I can't." He squeaked out.
He saw her lick her lips again, enjoying his stuttering state, "I-It was nice to meet you." He said and turned around.
He suddenly felt arms wrap around him, "Did you know i'm a part time teacher, I can teach you a few things, here and there." She suggested whilst touching his abs region.
He gulped, his voice suddenly a bit lower, "Do you teach at U.A? I heard a few rumours." He asked excited.
She clearly looked thrown off, that honestly just excited her even more, "Yes." She said and got off of him. "It was nice to meet you?"
"Izuku Midoriya, at your service." He said and did a small salute.
"At my service?" The R-Rated hero teased.
His brain stopped working, he felt someone grab his wrist unannounced. He then quickly turned the person's wrist around and held it in a slightly painful position, once he recognised the person he released his hold, "I'm so sorry dad." He said.
His dad massaged his wrist a bit, "It's okay Zuku."
He suddenly felt something on his shoulder, as if smoothing out the wrinkles there. When he felt a hot breath and two round shaped things pressed against his back, it already answered his question who.
"Do that to me, and i'll go crazy." She whispered.
His breath began to quicken, 'Does she even know i'm only 14?' he thought, panicking a bit.
His dad getting the hint cleared his throat, "Let's get going Izuku, you still need to pack for your scholarship."
"Y-Yes, I-Island." He stuttered out and followed his dad to the car. "It was night to meet you Midnight-san!"
"Call me Midnight-chan." She flirted and winked at him.
He let out a relieved sigh when he closed the door.
"Thank you so much for pulling me out of that situation." He said, expressing his gratitude.
"I never saw her this close to someone she just met, normally it's just flirting on a distance." He said and shrugged, "Guess she might just like you." He teased.
"She said my glasses are attractive, should i just, not wear them anymore?" His dad laughed at his joke.
"They might help you out a lot later, don't worry about it." He teased.
"Please no." He whimpered as he sunk into his seat.
