Okay, I'm back! Thanks for over 300 follows and 200 favorites after the first week of posting this story alone! Seriously, I didn't expect the power of smut to be so intense. Speaking of, there's still no sex scene in this chapter. I know it's like the main point of the story, but I'll get there! I promise! Onto reviews!
ThalioTP: Izuku has wanted to be "a hero who saves everyone with a smile like All Might" since before he ever got his Quirk, so I'd say that motivation is at least safe. Izuku doesn't hide his Quirk, but other people don't seem to care too much. There will definitely be major changes to the story.
chimchar14: HAH! "Deep relationship"!
bens6757: Huh? No idea what you're talking about. Definitely didn't go back and change that or anything (Thanks).
HankFlamion18: I'm probably not gonna do this harem right at all, but thanks for the optimism.
crazyg12: I'll bring up genderbends in the post-chapter AN.
Guest (Real Bitches): I already addressed this in the actual comments section, but the fact that Izuku went into puberty at age 6 is a side effect of his Quirk. Thought I made that clear enough, maybe I didn't. Just thought I'd put it here.
Xerzo LotCN: Hell yeah we'll have adults up in this. Already have a specific plan for Midnight. Again, I'll address genderbends in the post-chapter AN.
Guest (RandomDude): Yeah, OFA's effect on Izuku's natural Quirk is addressed in this chapter.
Mangaelf1977: No promises. Also, please don't take this too seriously.
LucklessBlock86: I hadn't even considered All For One, but it's a highly fucking likely thing to happen now that you mention it. Not to mention, what will happen the first time Izuku meets Shigaraki? Oooh...
GirugameshPanda: Damn right you're not complaining.
I do not own Boku No Hero Academia or any of the characters portrayed in this story.

The First Girl
Izuku stood outside of U.A.'s entrance gate with a smile on his face. Today was the day he'd take his first steps towards becoming a great hero. And he worked so hard to gain an adequate control over One For All that he couldn't help but smile at the thought of the results.
"Oi, Icchan!" Katsuki called as he ran up and clapped his friend on the back. "You ready to get into U.A.?"
"Hell yeah!" he grinned at the blonde. "But you know, it's hard to believe that we're really here... After everything..."
"Well then, don't postpone it!" Katsuki said as he walked forward and gestured for Izuku to follow. "I can't wait to see the results of that secret training you did!"
"Right!" the greenette smiled back at his friend and took a step forwards, only for his foot to get caught and trip.
But before he hit the ground... Actually, he never did hit the ground. He stared straight down at the path below him, which wasn't getting any closer at all. Then he looked up only to see a pretty cute brunette smiling down at him.
"Hey, sorry for using my Quirk on you without asking," she smiled as she grabbed him and began to right him in midair. "It would've been bad... luck... if, um..." The girl's face flushed and she quickly let go of Izuku and released her Quirk.
"Ouch!" he groaned as he landed on his side.
"O-Oh my God! I-I'm so stupid! I-I mean, I-I-I'm s-sorry! And I'm s-stupid, but I meant to say s-sorry..." the girl stuttered as she rapidly twiddled her thumbs. "W-What I was saying e-earlier was that the reason I u-used my Quirk without a-asking–sorry about that by tha way!–was that I t-thought it'd be b-bad luck fer ya i-if ya slipped an' fell right b'fore a– I-I mean, t-the e-entrance exam, y'know?"
... Did she just slip into an accent? And if his Quirk was just taking affect now, then that means it wasn't active when she caught his fall at first... She was doing something nice for him without his Quirk active. That was the second time in almost 10 years that that'd happened.
"Ah, no, that's fine," Izuku said as he stood back up. "Actually, I was gonna thank you before you, you know, dropped me..."
"I'M SOO SORRYYY!" she exclaimed as she rapidly bowed over and over.
"I'm joking!" he chuckled. "Thanks, really. My fall would've been a lot worse if I took it all the way down."
"I-I guess you're right... A-Anyways, good luck on the test!" she yelled before running up to the school.
"Good job, you caught another one," Katsuki sighed. "Let me guess, you're gonna reject her too?"
"Maybe," he shrugged. "Whatever, let's just take this test."
"You know, if you reject every single girl you meet, you'll never get a fucking rest. Seriously, if I had your Quirk, I'd at least say yes to one of them to get the rest off my back."
"Yeah, maybe you're right."

After taking the written exam, the students sat through an explanation of the practical examination. Once Present Mic–Izuku couldn't get over the fact that it was Present-fucking-Mic–finished, the hero course hopefuls made their ways out to the multiple testing grounds. Izuku and Katsuki were both a bit upset that they were being split up into different groups, but it was understandable to avoid people from the same school working together.
One of the side effects of using One For All was that his body produced extra pheromones from wherever he was using it. For example, winding up for a punch would make extra pheromones shoot out of his arm, while running or kicking would shoot more from the pores in his legs. Of course the amount of extra pheromones depended on the percentage of power he was using, so the 5% that he could comfortably use at present only widened his area of effect by a few meters, as apposed to the 100% smashes that he used at first that could apparently spread his pheromones across all of the beach and a good distance inland.
The reason that that side effect was good at the moment was that many students would probably try to steal points from each other, and having everyone on his side would minimize anything like that being done against him. So, he let 5% of his power rush over both of his arms for a few seconds as he walked around the crowd. He was aware of more than one stare being directed at him now, but that was fine. He was used to it.
"READY START!" Present Mic's voice rang out. When nobody had started running yet, the voice hero yelled, "What are you waiting for?! A real battle starts with no warning!"
Izuku promptly lit 5% of his power in his legs and dashed out of the crowd and into the testing grounds. The only person faster than him was a tall one with exhaust pipes coming out of their calves, but he decided not to work about them and instead focus on his own score. He saw a few robots down a side street and decided that that was the path he wanted to go down. He pretty much had the pick of the litter since he was fairly well ahead of the pack.
Charging his fists, he blew through both of the 2-pointers with ease. The third bot was a 3-pointer, which fired an easily dodged rocket at Izuku before also being smashed by his 5%.
"These guys are easy!" Izuku grinned. "Kacchan should have no trouble either, then. Alright, time to find more!"
Izuku decided that he wanted to make a little competition out of it. In the spirit of beating whatever score Katsuki would get, he charged his legs with 8% and hopped up to the rooftops. He could easily see robots cluttered along multiple nearby streets from up there, not to mention the fact that there were quite a few 3-pointers perched on the rooftops (U.A., those crafty bastards).
He leapt to the nearest 3-pointer with the enhanced speed of 8% and destroyed it, before dropping to the street below it and clearing the few 1- and 2-pointers there. Then he jumped back up and pushed off towards the next 3-pointer. He did this for the next five minutes and worked up a sweat by clearing six 3-pointers and their adjacent streets.
"Whew," he sighed, wiping a bead of sweat from his brow. "That's fifty-four points! There's not another 3-pointer that I can see on these rooftops, so..."
Izuku jumped up as high as he could with 8% and saw that a street fairly close by was cluttered with at least five or six bots. So as soon as he landed, he sped off towards that street. When he got there, he saw four 1-pointers, three 2-pointers, and a 3-pointer.
"Alright, that's more than five or six," he said to himself.
The 3-pointer fired a missile at Izuku immediately, and he jumped to the side where he brought his fist up to destroy the plating of the first 1-pointer. Next, a 2-pointer aimed its scorpion-like laser tail at the teen, who dashed forwards to slide under the bot before kicking up and breaking it in two from underneath. He pushed himself up and then rolled in midair to bring down one of his legs and an arm onto the heads of two 1-pointers simultaneously, breaking them both.
He landed and then looked up to see a volley of 3-pointer missiles heading his way. He leapt up above them as they converged and exploded, and landed behind one of the 2-pointers. He grabbed it by its tail and used 8% in his arms to heave it over his shoulder and onto the 3-pointer, destroying them both. It was then a simple matter to dispatch of the remaining 1-pointer and 2-pointer.
"Alright, that's... Sixty-six, I think? No wait, sixty-seven." Izuku took a deep breath since the prolonged use of 8% was taking a toll on his stamina.
Then suddenly, a massive explosion shook the testing grounds. That was more than enough to get Izuku's attention, and when he looked up he saw a plume of dust rising from behind some taller buildings, where he assumed the source was. He charged his legs once more before leaping up and across the rooftops. It wasn't long before he arrived at what he assumed was the largest street in the entire testing facility. The street was littered with destroyed robots, and filled with hero course applicants who were running away from HOLY SHIT THAT'S A BIG ROBOT.
'So that's what the 0-pointer is like?!' Izuku thought. 'I can see why everybody's running!'
"H-Help!" a weak voice cried nearby.
Izuku looked down from the robot to see the source: the brunette girl who had saved him from falling too badly before they began the written exam. She was lying on the ground across the street, right in the way of the 0-pointer's tread, and there was rubble on top of her legs.
'Shit!'
Izuku grit his teeth and jumped out to run across the street. He reached her in time and pulled her out of the rubble.
"It's you! From this morning!" she exclaimed.
"Yeah," he said as he slung one of her arms over his shoulder and jumped forwards. "You okay?"
"Y-Yeah, but I think my ankle is–" She cut herself off as she looked up with wide eyes. "L-LOOK OUT!"
She tackled him to the side just as one of the robot's arms came down and smashed into the ground where they had been standing.
"Is that even aloud?!" Izuku shouted before looking up and seeing the robot's other arm descending towards them. "Fuck!"
He stood up in front of the girl and reached up to catch the hand before it flattened them, charging his arms and legs with 8%. Apparently that wasn't enough to fully match the bot's strength, as Izuku shouted from pain and his joints bent under the pressure.
"Oh my God! Are you okay?!" the girl hurriedly asked as she looked up at him.
"Yeah, it's fine! It's all alright!" Izuku shouted as he filled his limbs to 12%. He shot a grin down at her as he pushed the hand back. "Why? Because I'm here!"
He turned back to the robot before pushing the arm back enough so that he was fully extending all of his limbs again. That didn't last too long though, because the robot pressed its second hand against him as well, doubling the pressure that was working against Izuku.
"Oh shit," he grunted as he was pushed a few inches into the ground. 'I didn't want to break my bones, but I'd rather do that than get crushed by this damn thing!'
Before the robot could crush him, Izuku pressed his hands against the center of the robot's. He curled his right middle finger against his thumb as he charged it with 100% of One For All.
"DELAWARE SMAAAASH!" he yelled as he let rip a flick of insane force.
The pressure from the 100% smash was strong enough to rip through both of the bot's arms, then still carried enough force to shoot up and into its main mass. It caused a large dent that warped the metal all the way to the edges of the robot's torso, and packed enough of a punch to knock it off balance and send it crashing down backwards. It landed with a profound thud.
"Holy crap!" the brunette exclaimed once the dust settled. "Y-You just did that!"
"Yeah..." Izuku panted, holding his right hand with his left as he sat down on the street. "Ouch..."
His entire body felt sore with the strain of 12%, and his right middle finger and thumb were limp. In general, he felt like shit. Even aside from his exhaustion from exerting himself throughout the test.
"A-Are you okay?" the girl asked as she knelt down next to him.
"Yeah, just tired," he sighed, before chuckling, "Also my hand kinda exploded, but that's happened before so whatever."
"It has?" she asked with wide eyes.
"Believe me, this is nothing," he waved his good hand in dismissal.
"The test is over!!!" Present Mic yelled over the exam area.
"It's over already?" she asked with a sigh before looking back down at Izuku. "T-That looks like it hurts... Sorry, you got hurt 'cause of me. A-And thanks for, y'know savin' my life."
"It's fine," he nodded. "I mean, what kind of hero would I be if I didn't?"
"Nobody else tried to save me," she pointed out.
"Well, you deserved it," Izuku said. "You ended up saving me when the robot tried to crush us the first time too, so thank you too."
"Y-Yeah, fer sure."
"... Why is everyone looking at us?" Izuku asked as he looked around.
"Who wouldn't? You just took that big villain down!"
"I guess so," he sighed. "How many points did you get?"
"O-Oh, me? I, uh, got twenty-eight. I-It's not really a lot... What about you?"
"Sixty-seven," Izuku said.
"Woah, you got that many?!" the girl exclaimed. "And then you still had enough energy to take on the big trap villain! That's so cool!"
"You think so?" he asked with a smile. "But... You only got twenty-eight, huh... I think you deserve to pass though."
"Y-You do?!" she almost yelped.
"Yeah, you saved me after all," he told her.
"B-But by that logic, y-you'd deserve to pass twenty times more than me, and I'm sure t-there are plenty of people who s-saved each other during the test..."
"Maybe..."
"MIDORIYA YOU IDIOT!" Recovery Girl shouted as she smacked him on the head with her cane. "I thought you were done blowing up your arms!"
"It was just my fingers this time though Recovery Girl," Izuku pouted as he rubbed his head.
"And you're too exhausted for me to fully heal you! Why the hell did you push yourself so far?!"
"I had to!" he claimed. "I mean, I had to save her life."
Recovery Girl glanced at the brunette before looking back at Izuku, asking, "Was it worth it?"
"Uh... Yes?" he said.
"Meh, whatever," she grunted before placing a kiss on his cheek. "As long as you're sure."
"T-Thanks," he nodded before yawning. His fingers were mostly healed now, though they were still a bit sore, and the soreness from using 12% was gone as well.
"Do you have any injuries young lady?" Recovery Girl asked the girl.
"Uh-huh," she nodded. "I hurt my ankle."
"Well here," the youthful heroine said as she kissed her forehead.
"Ooh, that's better," she sighed in relief. "Thanks."
Recovery Girl gave both of them handfuls of gummy bears before walking away and dealing with other students.
"Anyways," Izuku said, extending his hand, "I'm Izuku Midoriya."
"O-Ochako Uraraka," she replied, hesitantly meeting his hand with hers. "N-Nice to meet you."
"I never asked before, but what's your Quirk?" he asked.
"I-It's Zero Gravity," Ochako said. "If I t-touch something with all five of my f-fingers on one hand, it becomes w-weightless."
"Really? That's a cool Quirk!" he said with a smile.
"Thanks," she said with a blush. "What's yours? Super strength or somethin?"
"Well," Izuku looked and saw that the crowd hadn't dispersed. In fact, they had gotten closer. "Maybe I'll tell you in private?"
"Why? Is it a secret?"
"Kind of."
"O-Okay," she nodded. "Y-You wanna, I don't know... talk about it over lunch?"
"Sure," he nodded. "You have time today or do you wanna do it another day?"
"I-I'm open today," Ochako said.
"Me too," he said before standing up. "Meet me by the entry arch?"
"Okay," she nodded.
Then they walked to the locker rooms while eating Haribo gold bears.
_
"H-Hey Midoriya," Ochako greeted when she reached the entry arch. "Ready to go?"
"You mind waiting a second?" Izuku asked. "I kinda promised to meet a friend here afterwards."
"N-No! Not at all!" she waved her hands quickly. "I don't mind at all!"
"I mean, you won't have to wait very long," he chuckled. "He should be–"
"Oi, Icchan!" Katsuki called as he walked out to the archway.
"Hey Kacchan!" Izuku waved. "How'd you do?"
"I got seventy-seven points!" the blonde grinned.
"Damn, you beat me!" Izuku sighed with a frown. "I got sixty-seven."
"No shit?" Katsuki smiled. "Good job man! Seriously, what kind of training did you do?"
"I'll tell you later," he said. "I kinda have plans."
"Hm?" Katsuki looked at Ochako. "You're the girl from earlier, right?"
"Yeah," she nodded, extending her hand. "I'm Ochako Uraraka."
"Katsuki Bakugo," he said as he shook her hand. He looked at Izuku, "What kind of plans?"
"Just lunch," Izuku said.
"Fucking finally!" Katsuki exclaimed, putting a hand on Izuku's shoulder.
"... Finally what?" Ochako asked.
"Nothing, I'll explain later," Izuku said.
"I'll see you later Icchan," Katsuki said as he walked away. "You gotta show me how you got those villain points, alright?!"
"Right!" Izuku called back. Turning to Ochako, he asked, "So, where do you want to go?"
"I mean, preferably something cheap," she said. "Don't have a lot of pocket money with me."
"Me either," he said. "There's a McDonald's near here."
"Sounds good to me," she nodded.
Izuku and Ochako grabbed burgers and sat down to eat, then he told her all about his Quirk. Not really, but he told her what he and All Might had come up with as a cover. It was his original Active Pheromones, but the explanation for super strength was that he could burn his pheromones as fuel to enhance his muscles. And the explanation for the air cannon from his finger was that he could shoot his pheromones out from his body at immense speeds, but doing so destroyed the part of his body that they shot out from.
Of course, Ochako was blushing furiously ever since the part where he said that his pheromones made people fall in love with him, although it seemed make sense to her. And honestly, the rest of the explanation was way easier to get through even though it wasn't as truthful.
"S-So you're saying... I'm in love with you," she said slowly, to which he replied with a nod. "And everyone you ever meet will be as well?"
"Yeah," he said. "But strong familial love and platonic love can also form. Like with Kacchan and–thank God–my mom."
"I... s-see..." she looked down at her half eaten burger. "And when your friend said 'finally', he meant..?"
"I've never accepted a confession from someone," Izuku said. "I decided that I never would, since they'd all be coerced by my Quirk. And I thought that... it was manipulative, y'know? Like, it's cruel to take away someone's own feelings like that."
"B-But, it's not your fault," she said. "And besides, I-I think that it's more c-cruel to... to give someone these feelings, and then turn them away..."
"But they aren't real feelings, are they?" he asked.
"I... I think they are real," she said. "E-Even if they were caused by your Quirk, I think these feelings... of l-love... are real."
"... Anyways, I've never considered getting a girlfriend or anything, but... Earlier, when you caught my fall, that was before my pheromones reached you, right?"
"Yeah, but I woulda done that for anyone," she said.
"Still, that means that you're really a good person," Izuku said. "You're not just doing it to look good in front of me, y'know? This is the first time I've ever been able to be sure about that."
"S-So, Midoriya... Is this like... a date?" Ochako asked, her face filling entirely with red.
"A first date at McDonald's?" he laughed. "Maybe not. I'd rather do something at least better than this."
"Ehe, yeah," she said with a smile. "Well, maybe we can do something else... I don't wanna stop hanging out with you so soon."
"Like what?" Izuku asked.
"Well," Ochako sighed. "I dunno. Wanna come over to my place for a bit?"
Izuku instantly didn't like where this was going. But at the same time, he just couldn't bring himself to say no.

Notes: Real quick, before you freak out, I know that Ochako lives in the Mie prefecture with her parents at this point in the story, but that's not the case in this A.U. If you've read my Telekinetic Hero story, then this is the exact same as that explanation.
So... This story will rely on your feedback a lot. After all, this story is for your enjoyment! So I'll often ask questions at the ends of the chapters. I do have a couple today, so here goes.
1. Do you want a sex scene next chapter or should I blue ball you guys with this cliffhanger leading nowhere?
2. Do you mind genderbends? If you'd like to see them, who would you want to see? (There are some characters I'm absolutely opposed to doing this with. Such as Aoyama or Mineta, cuz fuck that.)
Anyways, that about wraps it up. I'm constantly torn between comedy and seriousness for the tone of this story, and the seriousness has definitely been winning out, at least in the beginning. It'll get funnier later on I think, especially with everyone in 1-A interacting, but let me know how you guys feel about it so far. As always, feedback and input are greatly appreciated and I'll see you guys in the next chapter!
