A/N: Hey I'm back. Okay, first things first. As always, thanks to all of you who had taken some of your time to read this fic.
Oh, man, growing up suck. With more responsibilities, I have less time to write. Worry not, I'll find a way to not take long for the chapters to come out. And speaking about chapters, I keep writing more and more. Do you want to know how long this thing is? 20k words, yep… And it's because of that I have separated into two parts of 10k because no one wants to read 20k in one go. Don't worry though, the other part will be released in ten minutes or less, so keep in mind that they're both the same chapter okay? And even though it is that long, there is not that much action, I also realize why I write so much. It's because of the character interactions, I want them to feel real.
Moreover, I know I said I wouldn't use music anymore, but I can't help myself, my inspiration comes from the music I listen to. To give you an example, this chapter was inspired by: [Aimer – Polaris] It doesn't go with the entire chapter though, listen to it afterward if you want, its good shit.
With that out of the way, it's time to answer some questions. Although, you can skip this part and start reading because it's gonna take its time.
Okay, let's start:
"monkiepawn" asked: "Does Izuku have to end in the hospital every chapter? Sometimes even twice? Also, why is he being a vigilante every chapter as well?"
R/ Okay… I'm going to say this to everyone, please use logic. First, he has gone to the hospital three times and just that, the first one was to check his Quirk that just "awaken", the second after an encounter with Toga which left him with blood lost and exhausted as hell also an ambulance was called, where do you expect him to end? And the third was after saving the floating baby in which he literally lost his fingertips, maybe I wasn't graphic enough, but it was to the point in which you could see the bone, does that not need medical attention? About the vigilantism part. Izuku cannot help it because it's the essence of a hero to help others, it's only vigilantism because he doesn't have a hero license, and in case you're referring to why he isn't getting in trouble for it, it's because if Bakugo can do his bullshit and not get punished because of having a good Quirk then Izuku can do good thing and be the same, also, Heroes tend to not enforce such law as long is not for bad purposes like the vigilante Stendhal. (Read the Vigilantes manga, it's there.)
Oh? it was just that, I read the others and some of them I cannot answer because it would be a spoiler.
Also, to "EndlessChains" Don't worry if it takes you longer to make a review. I'm always waiting for them because they always make my day
Furthermore, to the "Guest" who write a review every day almost religiously, thanks, some of your suggestions are good, others I have already planned them, and others I cannot do. Also, sorry, but Izuku won't get One for All. Why? Well, first and foremost, OFA is the biggest mess I have ever encounter. If you read other fics in which Izuku not only gets it, but also he has another powerful Quirk, he not only becomes super OP and the story began to get boring due to lack of danger and/or challenge, but also, if you pay enough attention, the excuses that are made for him not doing certain things don't add up with what had been already stipulated. Also, people don't know what a 100% OFA truly is, if you want to really know to what extent OFA reaches, read Vigilante's manga, around ch 50 you will see how stupidly OP OFA really is, And I'm just talking about the strength enhancement that All Might uses. (Please don't take this as me shitting over other fics, they're amazing, it's just that I'm too nitpicking with the little details)
Okay… If you made it to this part, congratulations, and I have a CHALLENGE for you. Try not to laugh or cry while reading this. If you lose how about you leave a review? I'm just a sucker for reviews.
Oh, boy, Anxiety is kicking in. Because I tried something new and oh boy, I wonder if you're gonna like it.
Lastly: Disclaimer: I don't own anything that appears in this story except for the plot and tertiary character. I'm just doing this because of better safe than sorry.
Okay! Jet Set Run!

Alone, lost your way home.
It was a nice day. It was peaceful and quiet, there even were snowflakes falling from the skies. The incident of last night looked like a far dream. Everything was alright… … Except for Izuku Midoriya.
The young boy was on his way to the library to get more books that could help him with new things for his training, and maybe take his stressed mind out of his current predicament. Said predicament being the people who texted him last night, and what his mother told him.
He was happy to see they care so deeply about him, but it was still terrifying.
The cat boy decided to make a stop on his way.
He entered that little clearing at the park where he received his lucky amulet all those months back. Izuku still carries it around, it was currently in the back pocket of his pants.
The boy comes to this place from time to time so he can relax, and it was just what he needed right now. He also comes here hoping he can meet the person who made the crown, though, his luck seems to suck. He knows the person still comes thanks to his senses, but he still hasn't met them.
Izuku just laid down on the snow, contemplating at the sky. "Hey~ what do you think I should do?" Izuku asked his partner as he began to move his arms and legs unconsciously
"About your mother's ultimatum or your friends?" Neko needs clarification.
Izuku's mom had told him something yesterday which was quite harsh. "If you put yourself in any danger again, I won't let you apply to U.A." She told him with tears in her eyes. He couldn't blame her. He brought this upon himself by being so reckless.
"Both…" The boy answered.
"Your mom is right. You're everything for her, so just follow her demand and focus on your training. About everyone else… Avoid them for a week so they can cool down a little. Maybe they won't be that harsh." The feline proposed to him.
"That sounds like a plan… Thanks, I don't know what I'd do without you…" He paused for a moment, a grim semblance appearing on his face "…No, I seriously don't want to think about that. Let's go to the library."
With that decided, the boy stood up and left the park.
A few minutes later, a girl in winter clothes with thorny vines for hair came to the clearing.
"Pff- hehehehe~" Ibara Shiozaki began to laugh at what she found there. There was a snow angel with cat ears and a tail. It was cute and endearing, but it made her laugh for no reason.
XOX
It was now 5 pm.
Izuku already got the books he wanted and was now on his way home when he received a message. It was from his mom.
Mom: [Izuku could you buy some ingredients for dinner on your way home. Thank you, honey.]
She then listed them.
The boy just took his eyes off his phone and looked across the street. There it was, a convenience store.
"How… convenient." Neko commented.
"Oh, my god… seriously?" Izuku groaned at that as he made his way inside.
After picking everything he needed, the boy made his way to the cashier.
When he was paying, he felt something… "*Sniff* *Sniff* Oh no…" It was the aroma of… danger.
"Can you pay this for me, Izu-Kun?" A hand, that came from behind him, put a bag of lollipops on the counter.
"*Sigh*… Sure… Toga-chan." He said without looking behind.
"Aha~ Thank you, Izu-Kun. You're the best!" The little killer hugged him, nuzzling her face against his back.
The cashier thought she was his girlfriend… he couldn't be farther from the truth.
They went outside, Himiko had already a lollipop in her mouth.
"Hey, Toga-chan… Could you not create any trouble? I'm against a hard place and you could be the rock… or the knife in this case…" Izuku said calmly. Maybe too calm for his liking. "There I go again… Every time she's around I start to behave strangely. Do you know why?"
"Yes…" Neko answered. "It's the blood fragrance… she carries around. To any big carnivore, especially a feline whose smell is stronger than its taste, the smell of blood it's like a drug, which boosts your senses and attitude. That's why you act bold and confident."
"We're talking about human blood, you know?"
"You're… not entirely human anymore. Very deep down, it's just a minuscule part of you, but you no longer view humans as equals… I'm sorry." The feline apologized.
"No, don't worry. Animals can feel empathy toward other species." He came back to reality.
"Pmm~!" Himiko pouted, her cheeks puffed up, making her strangely adorable. "Fine, just because you asked so nicely." She said. "I wanted to stab you a little, but I guess it can't be helped."
"Phew~" Izuku let out a sigh in relief. He just dodged a bullet… a knife? Thank goodness she gave in. He was in a pickle for a second there.
Midoriya was unable to mess with her due to his mother's warning. If he tried to capture her, she just would get violent. But, at least…
"If she's with me, she won't be with anyone else…" He murmured.
"Oh? Is Izu-Kun jealous?" She asked in a teasing way, misinterpreting his words. Toga put her arms around his neck in an embrace. "Don't worry…" She whispered. "Izu-Kun is special."
"Too. Close… The blood is..." The smell of blood was concentrated in her mouth. Last time he was too weak to notice, but now... …A growl escapes his lips. "T-Toga… can you give me a lollipop?" He needed something to distract himself.
"Blee~" She popped her tongue out, presenting the candy to him.
His mouth opened slowly as he got closer. It was hard to control himself. "Don't bite the tongue off. Don't bite the tongue off. Don't bite the tongue off." Following his chanting, his teeth dragged the candy into his mouth delicately.
"Hmhm~" With a pleased smile on her face, Toga ended the hug.
Izuku covered his mouth and looked away. That was when he noticed that every bystander in the vicinity was staring right at them, some guys were looking jealous and most girls were covering their mouths with a huge blush on their faces. That was when the realization of what he just did, hit him full force. His face exploded in pure red.
He looked back at Toga to see if she noticed. His embarrassment died abruptly when he gave her a better look.
"Fuu~ Fuu~" Himiko blew hot air onto her naked hands to warmed them up.
The little killer was wearing the same outfit as last time. Her nose was a little red, and so were her knuckles and ears.
"Toga-chan." His voice was gentle. "Do you have more clothes?"
She looked a little surprised at the question. "This is all I have since I scape home." After answering, she closed her eyes and went back to warm her hands again.
"Tsk" Izuku clicked his tongue in displeasure. "Yare yare daze." Izuku began to take off his scarf.
Himiko perked up at that catchphrase. When she looked up, she was surprised by a piece of cloth going around her neck.
"Your hand," Izuku said, extending his arm without noticing her expression.
She just stood there, stunned in disbelief.
"It's okay, just give me your hand." Impatiently, the cat boy grabbed her right and pulled it towards him. He took his right winter glove off with his mouth, revealing his bandaged fingers, and then touched her hand. "Damn… it's so cold." He winced at that. He put his glove on her hand, he did the same with her left hand. After that, he rubbed her hands together while blowing hot air. "Better?"
That question took her out of her stupor. "Y-yeah." Her eyes went immediately at his fingers. "You're bleeding." A smile appeared on her face.
"Hm? Ah, yeah. I guess they still haven't closed. It was last night so…" He trailed off when Toga grabbed his right hand and began to undo the bloody bandages of his index.
Some of the flesh of his fingertip was gone, leaving a gross red flesh. "So pretty~ haaa~mmm. *Slurp*" After saying that, she put the finger in her mouth and began to suck it tenderly.
"What are you doing?" Izuku asked, more curious than weirded out.
"Bloohi lohipod… (Bloody lollipop)" She spoke with his finger still in her mouth.
"I see." He said, like if that made any sense. He just accepted as it was and patted her head with his free hand. "Just be careful with the claw."
Toga giggled at that. Only her Izu-Kun would act like this.
After another three "bloody lollipops". They parted ways. Toga didn't want to, but after Izu-Kun called the police, it left her with no option.
"Hmph! Izu-Kun, you dummy!" Himiko complained while she was roaming a dark alley on her way to her hideout.
"Oh? What happened to you little girl? Did your boyfriend dump you?" A man's voice came from behind.
Toga turned her head to see, though her face was uninterested.
There were three men, from their looks, she guessed they were simple thugs. The blond girl smiled; her food has just arrived by itself.
"Don't worry, we can give you some company." Another thug spoke with a creepy smile on his face.
"Yeah… We'll keep you warm tonight." The leader spoke again. "So, don't worry about your boyfriend. That stupid cat kid thinks he's the best just because he saved a baby. He couldn't even face us last time and an old geezer had to come to wipe his ass for him." One of the thugs laughed at that. "I bet he wasn't enough of a man to please you. Yeah, he's just a bitch, a piece of crap—"
The words of the thug came to an end abruptly. With eyes wide in horror, he touched his throat. His hand was covered in blood.
The man fell on the ground, holding his throat in a futile attempt to stop the bleed.
The other two thugs were paralyzed on their spot and began to tremble as they saw their brother died in an instant.
Toga was next to the body with a bloody knife in her right hand. Her serous face winced in disgust when she looked at the body. "Agh, not even after so much blood you're a little cuter." When her eyes landed on the other two, she frowned. "None of you can even come close to Izu-Kun, so, stop spiting so much shit about him. It really… Pisses me off!" When she yelled the thugs fell on their asses, one even wet his pants. "At least, just because you're the crap of society, Izu-Kun won't get mad at me if I just end your lives…"
People around that area heard screams that chilled their spines that night.
After they left out their last scream, Himiko stood up. "Agh, You asshole! You stained Izu-Kun's scarf with your disgusting blood!" In frustration, she kicked the dead man's face, snapping his neck in a loud crack noise. "I'm not hungry anymore." With that last statement, Toga left the corpses there. These assholes just ruined her night.
For the first time, Himiko Toga passed on the opportunity to drink blood.
XOX
Six days later.
"Um… Takeyama-san? Where are we going?" Izuku asked. He's been following the blond woman around for quite some time.
"To my apartment." She answered without looking back.
"And… what are we going to do there?" Izuku asked again. She hasn't told him anything about it. She just told him that she would call him when she had time so he could repay her for saving his life, and now, here he was.
"Me, nothing. You, you're going to clean it." Yu finally answered the big question.
At least it wasn't anything too serious. Although, if this was all she was asking for, then she was a really lazy person.
After walking a few streets, they finally arrived at their destination.
"Here we are." The pro heroine said, opening the door. "Home sweet home."
"Well, this is going to be easyyyyy—…" He stopped when he looked inside. "Um, Takeyama-san. I don't want to sound rude, but…"
"Every time someone says that they're going to be rude, y' know?" She let out an exasperated sigh.
"I-is this really your apartment?" He continued anyway.
"And there it is…" The woman commented. "Look, I'm always busy with my job. You know, fighting villains and saving people, and I end up pretty tired to do this."
"You didn't look tired when you save me." Izuku judged her mentally.
"So, I'm grateful when you offered a helping hand, so… Thank you~" Her personality did a 180 turn. She became cheerful, giving him her best fake smile, the smile she used to get anything she wants from men. They are so easy.
"Don't worry about it." Izuku just walked past her, ignoring her completely.
To say she was taken aback was an understatement. "Did this brat just ignore me?" She gritted her teeth, her head snapped in his direction with an angry expression on her face. "Okay, calm down, Yu. This kid just doesn't know what he wants. I mean, look at me, every time I do something every man break their neck to lay their eyes on me. Umu, that's it, the problem is with this brat, not with me." The woman tried to calm herself, though her right eyebrow twitched ever so slightly from time to time.
Izuku was… impressed. He didn't think a place could be worse than Dagobah beach, but somehow Mt. Lady did it. There were leftovers of junk food here and there, he even noticed a slice of pizza stuck on the ceiling. The tables were filled with beer cans. Used clothes were thrown everywhere, and that was just the normal stuff. "How the…? Is that a mop piercing the wall?" He didn't think that was possible. "*Sigh* I can already feel the headache."
Deciding to not lose any more time, he put his backpack on the cleanest spot he could find. Mt. Lady had told him to buy plastic bags… apparently, he will need the whole package. She also told him to bring rubber gloves, and lucky he, Neko told him to buy a mouth cover.
"I'm going to change," Takeyame informed him as she went to one of the rooms. "Don't try to peek or I'll—"
"Don't worry about it" Izuku interrupted her while waving his hand, he didn't even bother to look at her.
"Grrr…" Yu growled, his attitude towards her was pissing her off for some reason. "What's with this kid?!" She slammed the door.
"Okay, let's start with the couch and continue from there." The cat boy said, already with all his equipment on.
It took him a few minutes to clean it because he decided to separate things between trash and recyclable. If he's going to do this, he's going to do it right.
"It looks better now." The boy was pleased with himself.
"Ah~" Yu Takeyama came back, throwing herself on the recently clean couch, opening a bag of Doritos while turning on the TV. She had changed into a loose white t-shirt and black shorts, the t-shirt said something that she probably didn't know what it meant because it was in English. He did, though. It said: 'If she breathes, she's a thot'. "What?" She asked, seeing the cat boy staying there, staring at her with a derogatory face.
Izuku looked at his hands. "I feel like something just awaken inside of me."
"I know what it is," Neko responded. "It's called… a tiger mom."
"That doesn't make any sense, but I'll accept it as it is." He continued with his cleaning.
He continues with the beer cans, then the leftovers, then the dirty clothes.
One pile of clothes, in particular, made him stay still, staring at it.
"Her underwear…" Izuku stated the obvious. "Um, Takeyama-san… I found your… underwear."
"So? Pick it up and put it with the other." She was entertained by the TV and didn't care. He was just a brat, after all.
"*Sigh* Right…" With resignation, he extended his hand. Then immediately retrieved it back. "Ahhh! It moved!" He has really good eyes to see the pile move a little.
"Something wrong?" Yu asked from her spot.
"Y-y-your underwear just moved." He said in a panic, was this some paranormal crap?
"Hah? Oh. It's probably my pet." Just as she said that the head of a little creature came out from the clothes.
"Oh… hey, little buddy." Izuku picked him up. "It's your pet a hamster by any chance?" He asked. "Can she even take care of him?"
"Yep, he wonders around as he pleases, he's one of the primary reasons I need you to clean the apartment." She answered. "His name is Little Chungus."
has stopped working.
"Wut?" He shook his head to regain his composure. "Who names their hamster 'Little Chungus'?"
"Meh, I've heard worse… Like someone naming their cat 'Neko'." The feline said a little salty.
"Ouch. You're never going to let me live that one down, right?"
"Nope."
Izuku continued cleaning. He put the clothes in the washing machine and Lil' Chung in his cage and went to the bathroom.
"Well, it looks tidy enough. Just a little of brushing here and there and is done." Then something crawled on the wall. It was a cockroach. "Why I'm not surprised?" The shampoo bottle fell for no reason and the little bug opened its wings and began to fly towards him. The cat boy slammed the door as if his life depended on it. "I need a flamethrower!" Even as a humanoid cat, the fear towards a flying cockroach was still implanted in his brain like any normal human being.
After that little incident, Midoriya continued with his crusade.
And soon after, it was 7 pm.
Mt. Lady stood up, stretching her body. "I'm hungry." She stated. "I'm going for dinner, do you want something, kid?" She went to her room to get a change. Although, before she could enter, someone grabbed her wrist. It was Izuku.
"What… what are you going to buy?" His serious face startled her. What was with the sudden change?
"H-hamburger…" Yu got a little nervous. Those big emeralds were looking directly at her purple eyes, a little blush crept onto her cheeks.
"*Sigh* I knew it…" He got a little exasperated. The boy looked at her again. She jumped a little when she saw those annoyed eyes. Nobody had looked at her like that before… Well, maybe Kamui Woods, though these were a little different, there was a… glint of concern. "Yu Takeyama-san, you cannot keep doing this. Junk food is not good for your health." He let go of her wrist and turned his back to her. "Sit down, I'll see what I can prepare."
"Eh? No, you don't need to. I didn't bring you to cook me—." She tried to refuse, but she just shut up when he looked over his shoulder.
"It wasn't a suggestion."
Mt. Lady found herself sitting at the table a second after. It was like she was a kid again and received an order from her mother.
When she came out of her stupor, the woman noticed how clean her apartment was. Everything was organized and clearer. She wasn't expecting the kid to go this far. Her eyes went at the said boy who was in the now clean kitchen.
Izuku opened the fridge. "Not much… eggs, sausages, some other stuff… at least there is some rice… Okay, I can work with this."
Yu's eyes were glued to the boy, examining his every movement. Her face flushed when Izuku rolled up the sleeves of his sweater, for some strange reason that was sexy. "What the fuck, Yu?! Stop looking at a kid like that! This brat on top of that!" She was lucky he didn't notice.
Thirty minutes later, Izuku put a plate in front of her and a glass of cold tea.
The pro heroine froze. Did she really have the ingredients to make the amazing looking omelet sitting before her?
The cat boy sat across her.
An omelet is not that hard to make, and he practiced with his mother when he had the time.
Yu kept looking at her plate then at him repeatedly, unable to believe that brat did this.
She finally decided to take a bite. "Fua~" She let out a weird noise of how good it tasted. The woman covered her mouth and looked at the kid, a little flustered for her demeanor.
He was just there smiling at her, which flustered her even further.
"A-aren't you going to eat?" She asked, seeing no plate in front of him.
"There wasn't enough for me. Don't worry." He said.
"That's not good. You're my guest." Yu protested.
"At least she cares," Izuku said in his mind. He then pulled a snicker bar out of nowhere, opened it and gave it a bite. "Better?"
She was staring at him with a deadpanned face. "You know that's not how it goes, right?"
"Yeah." He answered with the same face.
After a few seconds of silence. "Pff- Hahahaha!" They burst in laughter.
After they calmed down. Yu's face became melancholic as she gazed at the omelet. "When was the last time I had a dinner like this?" The last time was with her family when she still lived in the countryside. It wasn't the life she wanted, but family was family, and she missed them. "How are mom and pops doing?"
Her face didn't go unnoticed this time.
The simplest of words that came out of his mouth were the ones that change her life.
"How was your week?" He asked.
Such a simple question hit her really hard. Her eyes went wide while her whole body got paralyzed. Her mouth opened hesitantly until words began to come out. She began to tell everything about her week. Every single detail. For a second she was a kid again talking with her family, like that day all those years back when she decided to tell them she wanted to be a hero. And just like her family smiled at her at that time, this… 'brat' did too.
By the time she noticed, she had already told him everything. Her omelet has disappeared, but when? For some reason, she was panting too. She also felt the moisture on her eyes and soon after, a tear escaped them. Yet, before she could do something about it, something perched itself on top of her head.
When Yu looked up, she found the brat patting her head, a calm smile on his face. "Good girl." Why did she, the one with a gigantification Quirk, feel so minuscule next to him?
Her whole face puffed in a mad blush. She immediately slapped his hand away. "W-what do you think you're doing?! I'm not some kind of dog!" She yelled, though her blush prevented her from looking intimidating. "If you're done eating, go back and finished cleaning." She said.
"Hehehe. Yeah, yeah." Izuku turned around and began to walk. "Cute." He murmured.
"W-what did you call me?!" Takeyama yelled again; her blush returned with full strength.
The cat boy froze in his track. His head turned back with a blush on his face. "D-did I say that o-out loud?" That was a rhetorical question. Of course, he did, why else she would say that. "I-I have to clean." He escaped.
Mt. Lady stood there, returning to her empty plate. Then she suddenly smacked the table when she found herself smiling. "I'm not happy! I'm not!" She tried to convince herself while a pout appeared on her face. It was at this instant when she realized that maybe bringing this brat here wasn't the right choice.
After some time, Izuku finally finished cleaning.
"Well, that's all. You can go now; you don't owe me anything now." Yu rushed the kid out. "Now we don't have to see each other again." She said though that sounded sad for some reason.
"Eh?" Izuku tilted his head. "What are you talking about? I'm going to come next week too."
"Haah~?!" She raised her voice in surprise. "What? Why?! I didn't ask for it." The woman retorted.
"Takeyama-san, you saved my life. And how I saw things today. Your life is a disaster. I won't allow you to continue this way. That's why I'll be coming every week and supervise something like this doesn't occur again." Izuku was trying to sound professional, yet the truth was that he was bullshiting his way to help her.
"I-I never asked for your help, you know?" Yu continued with her tsun-tsun personality.
"I know." That stopped her on her track, the boy sounded more serious. "But I want to be a hero. And… at least for me, a hero always offers their help without being asked for it. That's why… *Smile* I want to do this."
Again, that smile. That stupid smile caught her off guard. "F-fine! Do as you wish." She crossed her arms in resignation. She couldn't argue with this kid, it felt like arguing with her mom. She never won an argument against her mom.
"Perfect. Also, I'm not a brat. I already told you, my name is Izuku Midoriya. Yu Takeyama-san." And just like that, the cat boy left.
Yu entered her apartment and rested against the door. "What's wrong with him…?" She muttered. Looking up, she was able to see her apartment and the state he left it. The woman had to admit, everything was impeccable. If he was going to keep this then he would be like her butler. A cat boy butler. "That sounds like a really lame plot for a romance anime." Her eyes darted at the balcony where her clothes were drying up. With a blush, her eyes went wide when she noticed her underwear there. The young woman crouched and cover her red face. "H-he touched my underwear, and I allowed it. Hnng~ How am I going to look at him in the face next time?" She was unable to see how much her personality changed towards Izuku in a few hours.
From that day on, until the entrance exam, Izuku pushed Mt. Lady to be a better hero. Calling her to resolve any dangerous situation and to keep his promise with his mother. He truly embraced the feeling of a 'Tiger mom' with her.
Yu, on the other hand, developed a complicated relationship with the cat boy.
XOX
Days later, Izuku finally returned to the gym and Death Arms… well, the pro didn't lie. The green head truly wished not being saved by Mt. Lady.
Also, for some reason, Bakugo kept ignoring him in school. Was he busy with something?
And now was Kirishima's turn.
"Okay, I'll let you hit me once out of courtesy, Kirishima-Kun," Izuku informed. "So, you better make it count because it's not happening again."
"Fine by me." The redhead answered, readying his stance. "You still don't know how we felt that day, and it's my job to make it loud and clear." Eijiro hit his fist together hardening them. "Brace yourself, Midoriya."
The hardening boy launched himself, rearing his right fist. The memories of that day came back. That emptiness of losing his brother pushed him further, and for a moment, his fist went full unbreakable.
The fist connected the cat boy's face. Izuku's body flew through the air for a second to finally land on the floor, inert.
"Uh? Midoriya?" Eijiro called his name, but he didn't move. "Aaah! Midoriya!" The red boy rushed toward his friend. He had knocked him out cold.
An hour later, Izuku woke up.
"I'm sorry. I went overkill." Kirishima apologized. He truly was sorry
"No, I'm the one who is sorry." Izuku patted his shoulder. "If that's how you and everyone else felt, then I can allow it to happen again. No matter what."
It was a little melancholic
"Well, how about we continue with our spar?" Izuku decided to put those complicated thoughts in the back of his head for later.
"Yeah." Kirishima agreed. "I have a request, though." He had his brother's full attention now. "Stop holding back, Midoriya."
"Eh? What do you mean? I haven't been holding—" The cat boy was interrupted.
"Yes, you've been. I know you enough to tell." The red boy continued.
"*Sigh* You got it all wrong. It's not that I've been holding back, it's just… I've been developing my own fighting style, or should I say, modus operandi? Well, the thing is that I'm not completely comfortable with it. It's supposed to be used against enemies after all."
"Oh, now you have my attention. If you want to know how effective it is, then it's better to test it with someone. And who's better than me with my hardening!" Eijiro exclaimed with a big smile.
"No, you don't understand," Izuku responded a little nervous. "This… fighting style disregards completely the quirk of the opponent."
"I don't fully get it, just do it. I want to help as an apology for knocking you before." Kirishima continued with his naivety.
"F-fine." Izuku gave up. "But, don't hate me when you start crying, okay?"
"Ha! I'm not that soft." The red boy puffed his chest.
A few inches later.
"Ahhhh! How could you?! HOW COULD YOU?!" Eijiro was on his knees, crying his eyes out.
"I-I warned you, didn't I?" Izuku was trying to calm his bro down.
"Yeah, but how was I supposed to be prepared for that?!" Kirishima complained.
"That's the thing, Kirishima-Kun. No one is supposed to be prepared for it." Izuku confessed.
"But that wasn't manly at all. It-it was almost villainous. You're starting to scare me." The concern on his face says it all.
"It's only supposed to be used against villains, so don't worry." The green head stated. "Let's forget about it. Tell me, how's been your training with Yagi-san?" Yeah, that was the perfect topic to forget this. Kirishima didn't come to the gym regularly now due to his personal training to receive One for All. Izuku was invited to do it too, but he declined, he had his own personal training.
"He's pushing me to the limits, you know? It's quite hard." Eijiro informed him while letting a sigh to escape his mouth.
"You say that like if I didn't do the same."
"Y'know? You right, you two are sick." Kirishima stated.
"Also, you could ask Togata-senpai to spar with you. It helps to put things in perspective of how much there is to improve." Izuku said as a matter of fact.
"Oh? Is he strong?" Kirishima asked curiously.
"Well, out of the 20 spars we had so far… I haven't even been able to touch him."
"Damn."
"Yep. And you don't want to know how the first one went…" The red boy just looked at him curiously. "How do I say it… I don't think it couldn't have been considered a spar at all." At that, Eijiro whistled.
"Yeah, you got fucked," Neko commented with a smirk.
"Don't say it like that when I was with my butt raised and he was naked, please." Izuku pleaded. Neko went awfully quiet. "You just became a Fujoshi, didn't you?"
"N-n-no. W-why would I? Though you should consider—"
"Nope, Nah-ha, no, not happening. Not in a million years." Midoriya didn't let her finish. "I'll buy you a manga. But that's as far as I'm willing to go for you." Being a noble hero was hard…
The boy returned to reality.
"Hey, talking about fighting styles… you should try something, Kirishima-Kun. Like kickboxing." The cat boy suggested. "I know your hardening is strong and on top of that, you're going to get One for All. But there's no excuse to not have technique. Overwhelming power it's not everything. I'm trying something too."
"Ah! That sounds nice, I'll talk with Yagi-sensei about it." Eijiro clenched his fist in excitement.
After a few hours of training, Izuku left the gym. His gaze went up to the night sky. He was thinking about how everyone felt the day he saved that baby.
It created a paradox… the road of a hero which Izuku has chosen. He will put his life on the line to save everyone, but if he dies, those who care for him will be unhappy, and the hero he wants to do the opposite. To put it simply, he will risk his life as a hero, but if he dies for it, he is no hero… Too complicated. Being a hero is hard.
It was funny that the answer to such a complicated thing was so simple… …He has to get stronger, there is no other way around; become so strong that the risk of dying gets lower. No, that was wrong, only strength wasn't enough, there has to be more to reduced that chance of dying to zero… End world's suffering, yes, that was it, that was the answer and at the same time, it still wasn't enough. End the suffering is not enough… What else is there? What was a satisfactory answer? What was THE answer? In his hard thinking, something else came to his mind… Smiles, the smiles of everyone he knows… Happiness… Achieve the world's happy ending, yeah that's better. It's decided then… The ultimate goal is set. After all of this, it appears that the answer wasn't so simple as he first thought.
Neko, on the other hand, hated it. She hated this… maturity. Why was he like this? Why did he have to give it so much thought to it? It was better if he was just a naive boy, the first answer was fine, become stronger was fine, but that last one she didn't like it one bit. It is an impossibility, be she was sure that if it was Izuku, he would make it a reality, but at what cost? Was his own happy ending still included there? The fact that she couldn't answer immediately with a yes, scared her. This stupid selflessness of his… was the best trait for a hero, but the worst curse for a person.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch. It hurts! I give up! I give up! I'm sorry!" Izuku screamed.
"You better be. Think about your babies next time you do something so dangerous." Mei turned the torture machine off. "Think on me next time you do something like that." She muttered quietly.
Izuku heard that… and now he felt awful
"I'm truly sorry." The boy said. "Not going to happen again, I promise."
"I almost thought I became a widow," Mei said, crossing her arms with a pout.
"He… hehehe~" Izuku laughed at her joke. "I'm really sorry, dear…" He hugged her.
Unknown to them, Mei's father was listening, he had come when he heard Izuku's scream. "I wonder if they're really joking about it." He thought, a smile appearing on his face.

December has come to an end and a new year has begun
Izuku as a good friend has gifts to everyone he knows, a present; yeah, even to Toga, she looked really happy with a vial of his own blood. Of course, he's been trying to convince her to surrender to the police, she just won't listen. He can't go further than that… for now.
Right now, he was running low on cash. He could ask his mother for a little, but he didn't feel like it, it was about his pride. So, now he was downtown looking for an easy job for someone of his age.
"Ah… What was I thinking? It's not like if a job specifically for me would appear in front of me or something." He said.
A black car stopped in front of him. The driver pulled down the window and said. "Izuku Midoriya, we have a job for you."
To say he was taken aback was an understatement. He looked at the sky, wondering if he should ask for katsudon to rain from it.
Izuku entered the car after they said a word and one word only… "Ubawami." Yeah, better not get on her bad side, even though he was already on it.
After a short ride, he arrived at a studio, where he met her.
"Oh, you finally here. Great." She said with a professional smile on her face.
"Yeah, thanks for the offer, but I don't know why was I even brought here." He stated. "Also, how was your Christmas present? I know that it wasn't much and you probably have received better things, but I hope you like it."
It took a lot of the heroine to not blush and keep it cool. "Thanks, I like them a lot, though I have to ask. Why did you send two?" One of the presents was a simple ring with the word 'Hero' imprinted on it. She was wearing it a few seconds ago, but she took it off when he arrived. The other one was a sweater which she now uses every night as her pajama, not like she would say it or anything.
"Oh, one was for your birthday. December 9th if I remember correctly. Sorry for not being on time." The cat boy apologized, scratching the back of his head.
Truth be told, not a single fan of hers knew her birthday or didn't care enough to remember. Her agency and other people she worked with didn't gift her anything, thinking that she would probably receive better stuff than whatever they could afford to and just told her a simple "Happy Birthday". And then there was this stupid kid. A brainless cinnamon roll who she met once and did what no one could. He apparently was the only person who didn't saw 'Ubawami the snake hero and celebrity' and saw the person.
That was all it took to blow her defenses, making her blush immediately. "Stop being cute, God damn it." She tried to suppress her blush. "I-I see. Well, that's part of why I brought you here. I figure out that you probably didn't have money after that, so I thought of this as thanks." Damn, now this was becoming harder to tell.
"Oh, Thanks." He gave her a pure smile. "What's the job about?"
"You're going to be in a commercial." She told him.
"*Cough* *Cough* Come again?" That caught him by surprise.
"You heard me." She crossed her arms and smirk. Damn, her sass was real.
"S-so, I'm going to be like an assistant…" He tried to rationalize.
"No, you're actually going to be on your own." She shattered his hopes. "It's a masculine commercial after all. Here, this is the product you're going to promote." She handed him something. "You've probably heard of it."
Izuku just stared at the product. "This is Old Spice…" Yep, it was the famous brand of products from the US. "You want me to promote this?"
Ubawami nodded. "The company is trying to reach new horizons." She gave him a brief explanation.
"Um, I don't know if you have seen me but I'm not exactly… …How do I say this without sounding racist…"
"Black?" Neko finished it for him.
"That sounds really racist." Izuku thought. "I'm no Terry Crews, you know?" He finally found the correct words. "Isn't he supposed to do the commercials for this brand?"
"Yeah, but he couldn't make it to Japan. Being one of the top heroes in the US has its drawbacks." The snake heroine answered him.
"But why me. They should be better people for the job." The boy tried to make sense of this situation.
"He was the one who requested it. He thought you were perfect for the job." She explained. "Though I was the one who told him about you. I want to see you make a fool of yourself…" A malefic smile appeared on her face. This was the lesson she was going to use on him. So, he doesn't get cocky for being famous, for just saving that baby. Unfortunately, she didn't know that the only person that didn't know Izuku was famous was Izuku himself.
The boy wasn't paying attention, he was too busy fanboying over what she told him. "*Gasp* The great hero 'Doomfist' knows me! How does he know me?" It took some time for him to calm down. "Okay, I'm in. I can't disappoint him."
"Great. The contract has actually been signed up already by your mother." She showed him the contract with his mother's signature. That was efficiency right there. It was logical to get his mother's approval, he's still a teenager after all. "Now, follow me. Let me introduce you to the team."
While he was following her, Izuku decided to smell the famous deodorant. "Eh? It smells just like Togata-sempai… does that mean he uses it?"
"Well, now we know why he always shouts 'Power!' Every time he kicks you ass." Neko commented.
Izuku laughed at that, he could totally picture it in his head.
They both arrived at the recording studio.
"Oh, so this is the kid I had heard so much about." The director said with a smile, stretching his hand to the boy. "Ubawami talked a lot about you, mostly good things." The heroine tried to not blush at that comment, though her eyes were trying to pierce the man's heart.
Izuku shook his hand. "Ah, thanks, I will be in your care." He bowed his head. The boy wondered why he was being treated with such respect; he was just a normal kid.
After that, they went into more detail about the task at hand.
"Hm, that reminds me. Midoriya-Kun?" The director called his name. "Because this is a commercial for this brand, I was wondering if you had the physique for it. Don't worry if you don't, we'll just edit it after."
"Wait… Am I going to do this only in my underwear like sir Doomfist?" The boy got nervous if that was the case. "Um, it's this good?" He asked while taking his shirt off.
Everyone went quiet. His physique was more than enough.
This time it was impossible for Ubawami to suppress her blush. The silence was finally ended by the whistle from someone, probably one of the females in the team.
"That's great. You should go to prepare yourself." The director dismissed him to his dressing room. "Well, I gotta say, I was a little skeptical, but he seems like a good boy."
After some time, they started to roll it. Until an hour passed.
Everyone in the room was quiet with a deadpanned face.
"Aha~, this was so embarrassing!" Izuku ran back to his changing room while covering his red face.
Through the minds of everyone in the studio ran the same word… "Cute~" They felt cozy in the inside for some reason.
"W-well, as expected of Ubawami-san. Midoriya-Kun was great." The director said with a pleased smile. "We would like to work with him in the future, though that's for you to decide as his manager, Ubawami-san."
"Y-yeah…" She was still awestruck. Her plan of Izuku making a fool of himself backfired. She's been tricked, she's been backstabbed and she's been quite possibly, bamboozled.
Izuku's performance was impeccable, it wasn't at the level of an amateur at all. "What the fuck happened?" She went to his changing room and knock the door. "Hey Midoriya, I need to talk to you, can I come in?"
"Y-yes…" He answered. When she entered, she found him covering his face with his arms. "H-how was it? I-I hope it wasn't that bad…"
For some reason, the low confidence in himself pissed her off.
"That's what I want to know! How did you do it?! It was almost perfect!" She raised her voice.
He let out a sigh in relief. "So it wasn't that bad… thank goodness." He then looked at her with nervousness. "I… I've actually been practicing… how to act… On my own." He confessed.
"Ha?! Why? And how?" She was really confused by that.
"I took it as part of my hero training." He wasn't lying. Acting was one of the secret training that Neko had made him do after all, cat trough out history and stories had been known as tricksters, she also said he would need it in the future. "And… well…" She was starting to get impatient. "I learned by watching all your commercials…" He covered his face. "How do you act… your postures, your body language, the little expressions on your face… I'm really sorry… for being creepy." Toga had to do a little bit too, though.
He shielded himself behind his hands, expecting her to get angry… And~ missing completely the mad blush on her face.
More than feeling crept out, the snake heroine felt flattered beyond belief. "Geez, what's wrong with him?"
"Are you not mad at me?" Izuku asked after not hearing anything.
"D-don't worry about it." She had turned around to hide her face and trying to calm down. "You did a great job. And don't worry about anything else. I'll take care of it and contact you later. You can go home now." The heroine said after keeping her emotion in check, but then she remembered something. "Oh, yeah… Before you go. Can you sign this for me?" She handed him a paper. "Don't read it. I want it to be a surprised. It's nothing bad, I can assure you that."
The cat boy just kept staring at her for a couple of seconds before smiling. "Understood. I'll trust you, Ubawami-san." He then proceeded to write his name down on paper without reading its content.
"Thanks, Izu— *Cough* Midoriya." After taking the paper back, she saw the wondering face of the boy. "Something in your mind?"
"Well… I was just curious… Why the hero Doomfist didn't make it…?" The boy asked.
"Oh, well, it confidential, but I guess I could tell you." She looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping. "He is still dealing with the aftermath of the raid to area 51."
"They're still doing that?" The kid asked with a deadpanned face.
"It became like an annual event in the US." She shrugged it off, still not understanding American stuff. "It's not a bad thing, they are allowed to use their Quirks to let them blow off some steam. And it's fun for them, there haven't been casualties in ages, and some heroes even join in to laugh. Though I still don't get it… *Sigh* American."
"That sounds… Awesome! I want to try it."
"Neko, no! Bad kitty!"
XOX
It has been a week since his little job. The payment was good, but it was still really embarrassing.
"Well, it's not like a lot of people is going to see it, anyways," Izuku said, trying to calm his nervousness
The cat boy was downtown, on his way to buy some ingredients for his mom. She's going to teach him a new dish tonight. He's been enjoying cooking lately; the feeling when someone likes what you made is really nice, almost as good as saving someone.
"Where do you think you're going, young man?" A woman's voice called from behind as he felt his wrist was grabbed.
He turned around, he didn't recognize her, though her dark purple hair rang some bells. "Excuse me, in what can I help— *Sniff* *Sniff* M-M-Midnight?!" His voice raised in astonishment.
Immediately, every man on the street snapped their necks on his direction, some of them with a loud crack noise, and some of them did it regardless of having their girls next to them. Of course, the women didn't like it one bit.
Izuku noticed that right away. he needed to play it cool to not create a scene. The 18+ hero probably was on her day off, and he didn't want to ruin it for her. "Ah~ I seriously want to be sandwiched by Midnight's thighs!" He said that out loud for them to hear him. "Ah~ Is it too late to dive off a high building? She is literally behind me… God, if you really exist, and you made me, I want you to unmake me right now."
After he said that, he heard multiple responses from the other men. "Ah, I see you're a man of culture as well, kid." "You're not alone, kid." "Don't play with my heart like that." "That would be the best way to die." "I'm a girl, and I wish that would happen to me." Etc. He also heard multiple slaps coming from some couples.
Izuku turned around, ready to see a furious woman, but instead, he came across a trembling Nemuri, trying her hardest to not burst out laughing.
It took her a whole good minute to calm down. "Haaah~ So, you want to be sandwiched by my thighs?" She closed the distance between them and grabbed him by the chin. "I don't really mind if~ you really want it. So? Do you want me to?" It took all of Izuku's self-control to not say 'please'. "I'm going to do it anyway as part of your punishment." She declared while blowing air into his ear, sending a shiver down his spine.
It took even more self-control to keep it cool down there.
"By the way, how did you know it was me? Nobody outside of my coworkers recognizes me when I'm in civilian clothes." The heroine wondered out loud.
After calming down and keeping his blush in check, Izuku answered. "Y-you have a very distinctive aroma, Kayama-san." Nemuri pouted at that. "I-I mean, Mistress Kayama." She nodded happily after the correction. "I really don't know how to explain it… Maybe is the essence that leaves your Quirk?"
She smelled her wrist, but couldn't get anything. "And what do I smell like?"
"Like honey and cherry with a little fragrance of roses." He said with a pleasant smile and eyes close due to how relaxing it was. "I wish I had candy with those ingredients to know how it tastes." Hid didn't realize he said that out loud until it was too late.
"Oh? So, you want to lick me?" Nemuri asked with a grin on her face.
"I-I d-didn't say that!" Izuku rushed in his denial.
"So, you don't want to lick me…" She said with fake sadness.
"I didn't say that either!" After those words came out of his mouth, his cheeks began to get redder by the second. "J-jeez! D-don't make me say weird things!" He covered his face, like if that could help.
"Hehe~ Sorry, sorry. You just make it so easy that I can't help myself." The heroine laughed a little at his expense. "Well, we can continue this at my place." Without skipping a beat, she put a leash to his collar.
"Eh?" Izuku couldn't believe he was really being treated like a pet. "Why at your place?"
"Uh? For your punishment, of course." She smiled at him. "Now let's go, my kitten." She tugged the leash, making him move.
The fact that everybody on their way looked at him weirdly was part of his punishment, so it seems.
After they arrived at her place, it was punishment time.
Let's not… speak about it.
"So? What we learned?" Midnight was tapping her foot on the wooden floor.
Izuku, on the other hand, was on his knees. "To not jump into action until I get my license because it's dangerous for me and everyone." He had also his leash tied to a dance pole. What was a dance pole doing in Midnight's house? Let's not go into details.
"And?"
"Pro heroes can deal with them more efficiently… … …But—!" Before he could continue, he was sprayed with water on the face. "It's not like I hate water, but this is really annoying." The boy thought.
"No 'buts'! You have to understand." She was very adamant about it. "Midoriya…" Her tone changed, it was gentler and sad. "I know you want to do the right thing… but it's hard for those who care for you to see you in a dire situation… So, please…"
"I know! … …I know… That's why I'm working hard… to avoid people getting worried over me…" He clutched his pants while being careful with his claws.
"Ah~ youth!" Nemuri squeaked on the inside at his attitude. And the contrast with his maturity was so perfect. Izuku was really cute. However, she couldn't lose her semblance of authority, this was a lesson after all.
"And I know how everybody feels, but it wouldn't be fair for those in need of help…" The boy continued. "The big ones are probably too much for me right now, but at least the little incidents—" He stopped when he heard something coming from one of the windows.
"Help! Somebody help me! That man stole my purse!" It was the voice of a woman.
Nemuri's eyes widen in shock and snapped in Izuku's direction. "Midoriya don't—"
"I have to go!" He said, rushing in a hurry on the window's direction. He didn't make it that far though. The boy was tugged by the neck thanks to his leash.
"Midoriya, don't worry, another hero can do it." Midnight tried to calm him down. She saw through the window and spotted Kamui Woods already rushing in the thief direction. She snapped her neck back at the boy "See, someone is already—" The pro heroine stopped mid-sentence when he saw him.
The cat boy was tugging the leash back. A look of determination and worry on his face. "I-I can do it." He tugged harder.
"That's not the point—!" Midnight was getting mad but was cut off again, Izuku wasn't even listening to her.
"She must be scared; someone needs to tell her everything is going to be okay. Someone needs to be there."
It was then and there that she understood his intentions. For this kid, being a hero was more than taking down the bad guys. "It wouldn't be fair for those in need of help." The meaning of his words came back and slapped her in the face. Nemuri came back to reality when a noise unsettled her. Her dance pole was starting to be separated from the floor and ceiling, and the leash looked like it was going to break. Izuku wasn't going to stop until one of the three things gave up: The pole, his leash or his neck.
"Ah! Jeez!" Kayama exclaimed while taking off her top, and staying with just her bra. Her Quirk immediately went off.
Just in time, as the leash was the first to give up. He didn't make it far, falling unconscious immediately.
"Well, this went great…" She sarcastically commented. She scolded herself for tying the leash so well to the pole and wondered why he didn't just cut it with his claws, then something came to her mind as her answer. She told him when it was tied to not cut it under any circumstances. "Damn it, he was waiting for me to release him."
Before she could go deeper into her self-loathing, she noticed something… something that shouldn't have been possible. Izuku woke up.
The boy yawned and then stretched his spine like a real cat. Then sat down just like a cat again, to later, scratch his right ear… …with his right leg…
"Em… Midoriya?" She called him. Grave mistake.
His head snapped in her direction. "Nya?" His eyes had lost that… maturity and it was replaced with… playfulness.
"Okay… You're starting to scare me." Nemuri said nervously.
"Meow~" He then began to sniff the place… to then crouched ready to pounce on her, he was also purring. "meow!" She wasn't ready.
Midnight fell on her back with Izuku on top of her. She knew right away he wasn't trying to hurt her… though he was adamant on assaulting her face. He was trying to kiss her, or so she thought.
She was quick to hold him away from his cheeks, but he was still pushing. "No, wait, Midoriya! We can't! We can't do this; this is a crime!" She exclaimed that with a blush on her face, though her strength was faltering by the second. "Why is he acting like this? It's like he is a real cat!" It was after that thought, a memory came to her. Izuku had told her during his first punishment about his Quirk and that he was more like a half-human, half-animal creature. His Quirk wasn't a normal mutant type. "Wait." A hypothesis began to take form in her head. "My Quirk works better on males than females, but on animals, the effect is almost nonexistent. Which means… … … I put to sleep on his human side!" Alarms went off in her head. "No! wait! Please, Midoriya!" She pleaded, although it was futile, he wasn't listening. Knowing that this wasn't the normal Izuku trying to make a bold moved on her, pissed her off for some reason. "I said… Izuku, NO!"
He stopped immediately.
"So, he responds to his first name… good to know." The heroine looked at him. And found the cat boy with his tongue out. "Eh? Did he want to lick me? Not kiss me?" 'I wish I had candy with those ingredients to know how it tastes.' The words he said early came to her mind. She should really pay him more attention. The woman looked at him again, just to find a really scared Izuku, like a kicked puppy, or kicked kitten in this case. "Oh no, he thinks I'm mad at him. I feel horrible now!"
"Sorry…" a faint apology came from his lips.
"He can still talk?" That was surprising. "No, of course, he can still talk, he still has human vocal cords." Damn, all this situation just made her feel stupid. "No, no, no, no, no, I'm not mad at you, please forgive me for yelling." She apologized, and his mood did a 180 turned. He gave her the purest of smiles. "Too cute!"
While she was wondering if her insulin was in check. The green head cat fell back a little, though he never stood up. in fact, after taking a good position, the human-size cat decided that it was a good idea to drop on top of her, using her body as a bed and her breast as a pillow, putting his chin between her bosom, staring back at her. He didn't seem unsettled that the only thing separating him from her was her bra…
"P-please don't look at me like that." His intense gaze made her blush. This new side of him was unexpected. "Kya!" Nemuri squeaked when she felt his arms going behind her lower back, bringing her into a warm embrace. "W-what are you doing?!" Her heart was pounding against her chest. She may act bold and sluty on the outside, but that was the character of Midnight. Nemuri Kayama was a different person, or maybe it was only Izuku who made her act like this.
"Danger…" Izuku answered…yawning profusely.
"Wha— Are you silly? I'm not in danger." The blush on her face refused to leave.
"Loneliness… Dangerous…" His eyelids looked heavy.
The heroine didn't notice though. She was… "HNNNNGGGG!" She was covering her red face, having an inside crisis. "Ah~ this is it… I'm going to commit a crime…" She declared to no one in particular. However, when she looked back at him, she found the cat boy sleeping soundly. "Not fair… Making me feel like this, it's not fair at all." With a smile, she returned the embraced and roll her body to the side, making the hug deeper. "Maybe a nap it's not a bad idea." And with that, she fell asleep too. It felt nostalgic, like when she used to take naps with Sushi, her cat which wasn't with her anymore. In fact, the collar that Izuku wears was originally from the furball she loved so much.
By the time he regains conscious, Izuku won't remember anything of this, but oh boy when he wakes up in her arms…
