Chapter 36

It was official. Now that he was finally next to Rin and holding her hand he felt the butterflies bursting from their cocoons in his stomach.

He wanted to take her into another room and make out with her just like they had almost a week ago. He was excited to Thursday Dinners because they weren't just dinners now with friends. They were date nights amongst a boyfriend and girlfriend.

Midoriya squeezed Rin's hand and when she looked at him she saw his bright face. He knew it wasn't something he could hide.

When she asked what was so funny he couldn't help his small giggle.

"I was just thinking about how I'm happy you're my girlfriend." With that he again squeezed her hand and swung it a bit.

"You're such a dork." She tightened her fingers around his and leaned in, "but you're my dork." And then he felt the warmth of her lips on his cheek. It was a quick peck that burned to his core and he wanted to feel more.

He found his hand hand letting go of hers and working its way to the shoulder. This got her attention because she was now looking into his eyes as he leaned in for kiss on the lips.

There were mixed emotions and his body at first tensed at its own actions and quickly relaxed when it released what was happening. Rins lips were soft and the kiss itself was already ending too soon. Izuku felt heard himself whimper a bit as she was pulling back.

"Don't give me those puppy-dog eyes." She laughed at him, "We're at YOUR class reunion and if I remember correctly." She lowered her voice, "You wanted to take it slow."

Midoriya's hand dropped from her arm. He felt rejected and defeated by his own words. "I can't help myself. I'm excited to be next to you like this and it's for fault for-for for being so-"

He couldn't find the right word.

Desirable. That had to be it because know matter what it was about Rin he desired it. He wanted her time, her presence, her hand in his. He waited for Thursday nights every week. The week felt too long sometimes. As much as he loved his hero work there were days he missed working in the finance department. When he got to see her face everyday like clockwork.

The desire to always have something to talk about and when they didn't talk it was a comfortable silence. It wasn't piercing but calming. His brain would relax from its continuous thinking and mumbling. It was a bit rare that they had moments like this though.

Rin liked to socialize. She enjoyed talking and teasing. Izuku had learned that although she loved to talk she was really bad at listening. He had also learned that when she did listen it would always come back.

Like right now and us taking it slow. Hadn't they gone slow enough? It took a week just for him to ask her out. Though he felt a bit bad that it wasn't a more formal proposal. It was abstract and if Rin were oblivious he knew he would have prolonged the question even longer.

Midoriya took in a deep breath and looked into Rin's shimmery brown eyes. "You're very desirable. And now you're with me and I can't think of anything else I want to do but be with you."

Her face heated and Izuku was happy that for once the tables were a bit turned for a change. Nothing could crack the smile he had on his face now.

"Hey Deku." And with the enthusiastic voice of Mineta's did.

Midoriya's face fell to the floor.


Rin could still feel the heat in her cheeks and the twitching need to drag Izuku into a different room. She wasn't sure what she wanted to do with him but was positive that it involved both of their lips and that she wouldn't say no to however far they would go.

The self made porn enchapanuar stood in front of them and she could already sense the storm coming. It was like when you were outside and could feel the chill and slight breeze in the air before the thunderous clouds came rolling in.

After he greeted Izuku he turned straight to me and like the storm that was about to come you had to make sure you boarded your house. So I put up the best smile that I could while I also greeted him.

"You know I think it's amazing that you've clearly taken something you love and made a career out of it."

The small grin on the man's face turned into a full on smile. He loved his ego being stroked. "I wish everyone thought that way. I am doing real hero work but many people don't see it that way." He took a drink out of the glass he was holding. While taking the drink he looked over the rim right at her, "If I remember correctly you weren't always a translator."

It was a statement but Rin heard the question in the statement.

"I've changed career fields. That's what's so great about us being in our twenties. We can just keep changing our minds."

Both of the guys looked at me a bit strange but Izuku was the first to talk. "Actually Rin. That's not that common in Japan. We're actually kinda expected to know what we want to do starting as early as Junior High. That's why we test into specific high schools and to better our chances into the universities we want for our careers. It's not completely looked down on but it is seen as unprofessional."

"Oh."

The guy named Mineta giggled, "If it wasn't for All Mights big heart you'd still be stripping and the next best step would be working for me."

"I happen to think my quirk in pretty valuable and could get an adequate just at any major industry. My histor-"

She was cut off, "I think your quirk is valuable but many people can learn languages and do you know many? I'm not going to argue your quirk or profession. BUT-" He pulled out a round business card and handed it to her, "If you're ever in the need of some extra cash or decide you don't want to work for the Might Agency; I will be here."

Izuku was the one who snatched the card from his hand and ripped it in half. "She doesn't need this."

"You know Deku, You would make a big check just because he's in the top 50. Perhaps you could Detroit Smash Rin and make an extra paycheck."

Rin noticed Izuku's fist forming and how a green lightning was gleaming around it. They didn't need to add lightning to the thunder so she placed her hand around his fist.

"Thank you Mr. Mineta but we're gunna have to declined. I'd really like to keep all of that in private."

Midoriya's hand relaxed but just for a moment.

"I understand. I had actually hoped that you were with Ground Zero. He is highly requested." The man made fake camera lenses with his hands and had them facing Bakugou who was facing mingling with Mr. Yagi, "A rough doggy style scene is just what the people would love. He'd have to wear his costume of course-"

It all happened extremely fast and the only thing that Rin could see was green lighting flash past her and she knew that the hurricane's eye was here. The worst part. The outer edges of the storm weren't that bad and she had hoped that the storm was going to pass with little damage.

But Hurricane Mineta put up a fight and knew just what to say.

The green lightening that she knew was Izuku was being pulled away by a man covered in ice. All the people around in the room were coming to see what the commotion was. She could see that Mineta was on the ground and had blood dripping out of the corner of his mouth.

"I was just joking around. What's your fucking problem Deku?" Mineta was spitting blood to the floor.

Izuku didn't respond though. All Might took the place of the duel haired man and pulled Izuku out of the room. With him now out of the room a few of the people turned to me. Almost as if to assume I was the reason for the fight that had happened. Though it was partly true she didn't tell her new boyfriend to use his quirk on his old classmate.

Speaking of quirks Izuku's quirk didn't seem as simple as just a super strength quirk. She'll have to remember to ask him more questions about it at a later date but now wasn't the time.

Kirishima and Bakugou approached her but it was only Eijiro who started to speak.

"You should have seen the thinks Deku and this guy would do back in the day." He pointed his thumb back at Bakugou.

Rin sighed, "I think I'm going to go talk to him. We're probably going to head back to the apartment too."

"Going to make your relationship official?" Kirishima smirked and elbowed her side.

She knew that he was trying to lighten the mood and she really appreciated it. "You know it. I gotta get myself some of that Detroit Smash." She turned to Bakugou, who wasn't paying much attention to anything, "Thank you for having me over last night and for inviting me today. I owe you a dinner or something."

He grunted it off but Rin saw the bit of relaxation in his shoulders that showed his approval.

With that all being said she headed for the exit.


After young Midoriya had explained that situation to him he understood perfectly.

"Izuku, do you like this woman?"

He seemed taken back by the question, "Yes. I really do. I can't wait to share my life with her."

All Might couldn't hold the snort.

"Hold your horses my boy. You've only just started to date and you make it sound like you're going to walk down the aisle. Which you're not ready for if you're jealous of her past relations."

"I'm not jealous." Although he had grown he would always be a boy in his eyes. Right now he could still see the pouting lip of the once quirkless little boy. Only now it was the pouting lip of a man.

Toshinori could hold in the crackled sigh.

"You are and that's okay. Your mother was jealous of my past relations too. I tried my best to reassure her. I almost didn't think it was going to work with all the worry."

"What was my mom jealous of? You're amazing All Might. You are kind, nice, charitable and put your all into everything."

"Yes. I am all those things." Signature smile for a second for his pride and then a neutral face, "Because of my status in my prime it wasn't hard for me to find a woman. If you know what I mean. I'd never really been in a relationship but that didn't mean I didn't meet women. You're mother got jealous when she found out who some of the models and actresses were."

He could see the Izuku's face turning shades.

"My point to all of this is that jealousy is normal and you have to look past it. I'm with your mother because she accepts a part of me that no one else did. Even after the All-for-One most of community didn't accept me. She loves the Toshinori Yagi part of me and not just All Might. I love her for everything she is and isn't."

All Might paused and let the young Midoriya take in what he was saying.

"I need to accept and love Rin for everything that makes her who she is."

Nodding his head, "Aaannd?"

"And I need to accept that she had benefits with Bakugou."

"Yes. From what I remember your feelings never stopped even when you knew it was happening so why are you bothered now?"

Curiosity killed the cat but All Might wasn't the cat here. He watched as Izuku's face grew bright red.

"Well, I guess you could say that I was….uhh. Thinking with my Mighty Might."

Silence. He couldn't believe he heard him use his youthanisms for penis. Father like son. He couldn't help the smile followed by his laugh.

The laugh was cut off with the banquet room opening and Rin entering the small hall.

"Hello Mr. Yagi. I'm sorry to interupt your scolding."

"No scolding today. He wasn't working as a hero and they aren't students anymore. At most, I was just giving advice."

"That's great to hear." The young lady turned to Izuku and wrapped an arm around his waist, "Now if you'll excuse us. I'd like for 'Deku' to give me a one-on-one demo of his Detroit Smash in action."

All Might burst into laughter as she pulled the flushed greenette to the elevator. He was happy to notice the pure radiant joy on Izuku's face when they were standing in the elevator. Even from a distance Yagi could tell that the look was full of what he would say was love.

As the elevator doors closed he watched as young Midoriya placed his hand on Rin's cheek to pull her into a kiss.

His student was growing up and was encountering grown man situations. He sighed when he thought of the other grown man on the other side of the doors that had approached him about a different type of hero life path.

Young Bakugou had asked for a letter of recommendation so that he could go to university. All Might had been with the two boys for years and their passions have changed and they have grown to understand the best approach to reach them.

Izuku had at one point shared the goal as Katsuki to be the number one hero. It was after graduation and joining my company that he realized that as long as he save as many people as he could he was happy just being a hero. All Might liked to think of it as Izuku was fully appreciating the face that his wasn't quirkless and didn't want to push it. But young Midoriya wouldn't admit that because it felt like pity.

On the other hand with Bakugou Katsuki, his goal to reach the top never changed. After their conversation today it seemed that he was going to go about a different way about it. All though All Might wasn't completely confident with the young hero's choice to start his own hero agency he know that if someone was going to do it that he could.

With one last sigh to his thoughts Toshinori re-entered the banquet conference room to hear the stories of all the other students he had taught.
