He...he could be a hero.
Izuku Midoriya could finally after seven years touch the sky and be a hero.
He grinned at the older man in front of him. All Might smiles, the passed few weeks Izuku had lost his hope to the number hero. It wasn't All Might's fault, he was just sick to his stomach of people feeling sorry for him.
Now staring at him, all the hope he lost. All the crying and sobs it was over.
Deku leans into All Might and hugs him. The older man jumps.
"I...young man!" All Might yelps. Deku blushes and pulls off.
"Sss...sorry!" He says quickly and looks away. His body was shaking, and for the first time it was from anxiety. All Might smiles.
"It's okay my boy." He whispers.
A sudden text buzzes on the stand, Izuku picks up and reads it. "Mum's coming back..." His shoulders drooped.
All Might nodded. "I should be going now." He digs his own phone from his pocket. "Here give me your number young man, I'll contact you when I get more information from Dave." He explains.
After texting out his number, All Might bids farewell and leaves Deku alone, waiting for his mum.
At the end of the week the Dr came in.
"Hey Izuku. You can go home today. But for about a week we recommended you stay in a wheelchair." He explains.
Deku nods, he hated the chair. But for some reason he found wheelchair got less pity than his braces crutches.
Plus he still liked to use his braces for short walks around his house to the kitchen or bathroom.
Doctor patted his bag. "Just waiting for your mum to come home and start the discharge papers."
Izuku nodded, watching him go. He pulls his phone off its charger and started to get his laptop cords and headphones together. Waiting for mum to get the rest.
Two days later Izuku was home alone for a few hours while his mum was doing something.
He got a text from That Man. Taking his eyes from the TV he reads the text.
All might: 1:34pm
:Dave needs to video call you and get information on how to make your braces.
You: 1:37pm
: I cant get out im stuck at home
All Might: 1:45pm
:Grammar young man! When can you come out?
You: 1:48pm
:atlesast by next week drs said I need to take a break before I get back to my braces
All Might: 1:56
: Please contact me. A.S.A.P. When you can move again.
Choosing to end the conversion like that Izuku turns off his phone. He sighs. A video call with a leading scientist? That wasn't nerve racking at all...
"Izuku!" A call came from the door. It cut his thoughts. Right he should open the door for his mum.
"Coming!" He called, he grabbed his crutches and started to walk to the door. He should be using the chair but a few steps would never hurt.
He unlocks it, stepping back and leaning into the wall. He almost forgot the energy used just to walk!
The door opens and expecting to find a short plump women he finds, well that and a tall middle aged man with curly hair. Kind blue eyes and a skinny feature.
"Hey bud!" The man says, reaching a hand to ruffle his sons hair.
"Da..Dad!" Izuku couldn't help to yelp. He was happy of course but he couldn't help but be surprised. His dad taking the time to see him? He came a lot during Izuku's sickness but since then twice a year. Christmas and some time mid year, generally around the time of Izuku's birthday.
Inko looked flabbergasted. "Izuku get into the wheel chair!" She says quickly, with her own disappointed surprised glare. Izuku sighed.
"It was ten metres Mum, I'm fine." He says, hoping away to get to the couch he had been hanging in.
Hasashi Midoriya smiled at him, putting down his bags at the ground and hugging his son. Izuku smiles and hugs back.
"Surprised?" He asked, a cheeky grin on his face.
Izuku nodded. "Ye..yeah!" Izuku's parents smiled at each other, pleased with their sons joy.
Hasashi quickly excused himself to put his stuff away.
"Hungry baby?" Inko asked.
"Bit." Izuku mumbles, he took his legs from the braces whimpering at the pain stabbing up his legs.
With now a bowl of rice in Izuku's hand, he slowly chewed it when his father came out with a large box shape present. It had cliche chibi All Might faces and phrases, nevertheless Izuku found a grin across his face. He carefully found the tape and took off the wrapping slowly, careful not to damage the paper and put it somewhere safe. He heard Hasashi chuckle at his behavior, causing a blush to spread Izuku's face.
When the wrapper was taken off, Izuku saw an massive All Might figurine. It had English writing so Izuku couldn't read exactly what was said. But he grins and stares up at his Dad, he defiantly hadn't seen this figurine before.
"It was limited found it at the airport in America, saw it and was like, hey Izuku would love that!" The middle aged man grinned at him. Izuku nodded and hugged him.
"I love it thank you!
"
After a few days Izuku was able to move, and as All Might requested he contacted him, to meet up.
It was early morning, and the excuse he had to use to get out of the house was wild and he hated using it.
There was a single van in the white ute and Izuku limped to a park bench, hoping what ever homeless man lived in the ute wouldn't attack him.
After a few minutes the windows of the ute opened. Izuku jumped.
"I don't have any money!" He squeaked.
"Young man its me!" All Might coughs, poking his head out the window. "I finally got in contact with Dave. Come come!" He waves his hand.
Izuku had never owned a car, his family couldn't afford their own house so buying a car was off the grid and there was no where to put it. He had trouble getting to the high seated car. All Might was wrapped up he smiles and handed him a drive in cup.
"I found a coffee shop its white." He explains softly to the boy, who took the drink thankfully, sipping it. Looking at the screen, ready to begin the call that might change his life.
