Most of the class knew about Katsuki and I. It was mostly because Kirishima and Mina had turned out to be blabbermouths. There were small teases every now and then but nothing too major. I had to confront All Might about a really awkward question having to do with seamen and my quirk. As weird and embarrassing the conversation was I was relieved to find out that because it's not the right type of DNA it won't cause problems. He explained that that was the only thing that wouldn't cause a problem if ingested or injected in my case. Blood was his main worry.

I was pretty sure that someone had found out about what happened with Sho because there were little quips that Kacchan never really caught on to being thrown out.

Katsuki had told Eijiro that if any more of what had happened slipped out that he would be forced to reveal what happened between them. His response to this was a total freak out because he was still hoping for a chance with Momo. Truthfully I believed if Momo actually liked him she wouldn't care but I thought she had a thing for Shinso with how she always acted while he was around.

After the day at the hospital when I had confided in him what happened, despite his attempt to steer clear of the topic, we had grown a bit closer. After classes, he would come and hang out once or twice a week but it started happening a bit more lately. Often they would get into conversations that would leave them both dying with laughter in their own little world.

I laid on the couch of the common area watching TV. Kacchan sat on the floor, leaning against the couch with his back while playing cards against Tokoyami and Sho.

Toru Hagakure was still in her uniform across the room painting Mina's nails. It looked like the color was black but it could be purple. Small giggles could be heard from where they sat ever so often getting louder. Toru's feet kicked behind her in excitement at something the pink girl in front her had said. I changed the channel over to the news.

They were talking about the League of Villians. By now you would have thought that their game would have died down a little bit. As terrifying they were wasn't their goal accomplished? All Might retired. He literally couldn't go out in the field anymore.

"The league's whereabouts aren't currently known but there is evidence that they are in connection with many of the newer gangs."

The raven-haired news reporter said in an almost monotone voice. She collected her papers and evened them out by tapping them on the table in front of her.

"Wow is that frightening for all the students at UA. After their encounter with them at almost the start of their training earlier this year we can only hope that the school is taking precautions as the threat rises." The blond male sitting next to her laughed a bit. It seemed ironic.

"You would think that they would have fired that All Might after-"

I switched the TV off.

"Izuku are you okay?" Shoto looked up from his cards at me

"I guess I just feel bad that even though All Might sacrificed himself the media is still portraying him horribly because the league was after him. "

Katsuki looked up at me.

"The media is always going to shit on people. Don't you remember how they treated Aizawa and the whole fucking staff after I was taken?" He rolled his eyes looking back at his cards "They're fucking ridiculous assholes."

Tokoyami threw down a card. "Uno!"

"Damn it!" Kacchan groaned looking over at me. "You're too distracting. I forgot my fucking strategy."

A small giggle left my lips "shush."

"All I'm saying is that if his quirk deteriorates things is that it's impossible to masturbate." Denki said walking in with Eijiro who looked like he couldn't breathe from laughter.

"And what I'm saying... hah... is that he can probably control that quirk like most people." Kirishima facepalmed at his protest.

"Do you know one person that cant control their quirk?"

He put his finger to his bottom lip. "Yeah! Oijiro and Tokoyami."

"I can control my quirk fine. It's just harder when it's dark." Tokoyami sighed and shook his head "and Oijiro can control his tail very well. It's very unlikely that someone cant. Even Midoriya could though it hurt his body."

"Kaminari you're a fucking moron." Kacchan glared up at him. His crimson eyes were so serious as he looked back to his game. "HAHA. FUCK YOU DRAW FOUR BIRD BRAINS!"

I shook my head and laughed as Tokoyami let out an annoyed sigh.

I could hear footsteps coming down the stairs. Suddenly Momo appeared dressed in a nice knee-length black strapless dress. She was putting hoop earrings on and almost looked like she was going to trip.

Kirishima's jaw dropped and a blush covered his face.

"Hey! Have any of you seen Hitoshi? I'm running a bit late and I figured he would have been here by now."

I shook my head.

"You got a date with the purple porcupine?" Kacchan said not looking up from their game of UNO which had been going on for at least thirty minutes.

"Bakugo. Don't call him that and yeah I do. Nothing too big just dinner and a movie. He asked me to go about a week back. I figured I should try to look nice." She looked up at Kirishima "are you okay? Your mouth has been open for a little while."

Her words brought him back to reality. "Y...Yeah, you just look. Wow. So... wow."

Kacchan laughed at his choice of words. "Real romantic Eijiro."

A small blush covered Momo's cheeks. It slightly highlighted her onyx colored eyes. "Thanks.."

I wondered to myself where Shinso could be.

"Have you tried sending him a message?" The response to my question was a head shake.

"You should probably do that. It might be a little while because his class dorms are a bit away from here. Here, sit." I moved my feet off the couch placing a leg on each side of Kacchan. His head nuzzled my left one a bit.

"Thanks, Izuku. You are fine with me calling you that right?"

I nodded "Yeah it's fine and I'm sure he will be here soon."

It was easy to tell she was worried from the look on her face. The expression she had wasn't just worry it was also sadness.

"Ah, you missed my nail completely!" Toru whined from across the room.

"If you weren't invisible then I could do your nails properly. I'm sorry!" Mina whined in response.

"There it comes full circle. HAGAKURE CANT CONTROL HER QUIRK! There's someone!" A sandal flew across the room and hit him square in the face.

"Don't be a jerk Denki! "Mina groaned and seemed to pat Toru on the head.

"I wasn't trying to... I'm sorry." He said quietly.

"It's okay. At least I don't short out using my power." I heard her blow raspberries in his direction.

"Toru ew. You got spit on me." Mina laughed in response to the raspberries.

"Hey, Toru." Jiro spoke from in a corner where she was reading a book. "Can you turn your quirk off? I was just wondering..."

The clips in her hair moved as though she was shaking her head.

"I'm working on it.." she said softly in

There was a knock on the sliding glass door. Shinso was wearing a black button-down with dark blue jeans. Momo jumped up excitedly while fixing her ponytail.

"I'll see you guys later." She joined him at the door. "And Izuku, thanks, you really helped curb my anxieties if even for a moment."

The door slid open and I could faintly hear him.

"Sorry, I'm late. Class ran over and I still needed to get ready. You look ravishing Momo. You ready to go?"

As they walked I could only hear a small amount of giggling as the door slid shut and they walked away.

"Have you always been invisible or did your quirk come later like most people?" Ochaco asked taking the nail polish from Mina after much protest.

"Well, I got my quirk around four." She paused for a second. "But before that, I was a really cute kid!"

Her phone was held out to Ochaco and Mina.

"You were so adorable!" Ochaco squealed

Mina took Toru's phone and ran off.

"So cute! So cute!" She did a little dance and ran over to the group playing cards. "Look at this adorable tiny Toru!" She got louder while saying the other girls' name. I looked over Kacchan's shoulder at the phone in Mina's bright pink hands. A bright smiling girl with brown hair and a large blue bow on her head.

"Awe! You're so cute!" A giggle escaped my lips.

"You guys are making me blush!"

"Not like we could see it though."

"Shut up Denki." Mina barked in response throwing herself over the couch beside me shoving the phone in his face "She's adorable!"

"Hey maybe with a little practice you'll be able to turn it off." Kirishima said with a bright smile.

I had fallen asleep on the couch. For some reason, no one woke me up. The nightmares had subsided unless I was really stressed but Kacchan still slept in my room every night only going to his room when he needed space. That happened about once a week and so far it had been 3 weeks. When I awoke to the same spot I had been before I could hear subtle crying. In my groggy haze, I couldn't see anyone but I knew that voice. Even if it was only a cry I knew the person and that they were in here.

"Hagakure?" I said softly rubbing my eyes.

"M...Midoriya? I'm sorry did I wake you?"

I shook my head just hoping that she could see me. I looked around and spotted pink pajamas and bunny slippers.

"You didn't. What's wrong? I know you're crying."

I heard a sigh and watched as she walked over and sat by the couch I was laying on.

"I miss people seeing me... I want to be seen. I wish I could turn this stupid quirk off. Everyone thought I was an adorable kid but..." she paused and turned to look in the other direction. " only I can see me now. I want to feel beautiful. It's so hard when I can't be seen. I got the lamest quirk."

I sighed wishing that I could tell her my secret. That I didn't get one at all so I knew the opposite view exactly. Though I couldn't tell her. So I tried to give her a variation of it.

"Surprisingly I know how you feel to some extent. Yeah everyone can see me but when I was young I didn't even get a quirk. There was a ton of bullying that ensued from that." I looked down at my hands while fiddling with my thumbs "it showed up right before I applied by some miracle. I guess I was just a late bloomer... anyways I still can't completely control it and I hurt myself a lot trying to help others."

"Oh. That's sad. I'm sorry you had to go through all that." She said in reply looking a bit sad. All I could hope was that she wasn't thinking either one of us was selfish.

I waved my hands frantically while shaking my head. "No, no. Don't be sorry. It honestly helped me grow as a person and a hero. But it wasn't my intention to make you feel bad or say I had it worse. What I was going for was a more of I know how you feel." I rubbed the back of my neck anxiously "It's tough not knowing how to use your quirk but with some practice, you'll get it under control and we can see that bright shining face of yours."

It sounded like she was crying again. She sniffled.

"Thank you Midoriya. You always know just what to say. I'm glad you came to our school." Toru said softly.

I hoped there was a smile there. In fact, I was pretty sure there was when she wrapped her arms around my neck and gently placed a kiss on my cheek.

"Just so you know that was completely platonic. You're a really good friend. Izuku."

I felt my lips curl into a smile. It was nice to help someone that needed it. Toru was extremely sweet and all I could hope for was that she would be happier soon.

I got up slowly stretching and yawning. It was time to go lay next to Kacchan in bed and get some serious cuddling done
