Back in Class 1-A dormitory...

Uraraka sat with the others on one of the couches in the common room as her friends watched TV together. Some of Ladybug's teammates were detransformed and settled in pretty well. Cat Noir stayed in his hero costume, talking to Kaminari and Sero. Everyone was trying not to freak out with all of the Kwamis flying around the dormitory. The teachers, especially Mr. Aizawa soon left to take care of some things. Even Su Han went with them to help out.

Uraraka was trying to take her mind off of Melissa. She looked down at Midoriya's backpack and kept wondering what was taking him so long.

She tightened her fists around her knees, thinking about the last time she saw Melissa. Midoriya and her were so close and became friends so fast that it made her jealous. And now that she was back, it brought those feelings back up again. She didn't want to admit it, but she could definitely feel it.

"Ochaco, are you okay?"

Uraraka looked up and wasn't expecting Chloe to show up. She looked really tired now that she was out of her hero costume. Mr. Aizawa had brought down some extra sleeping bags and pillows for everyone that were stuck here. Chloe hesitated to sit down, but Uraraka motioned for her to sit.

For a while, they just sat there quietly without saying a word to each other.

"It must feel a little weird, huh? Being back here and all," Chloe said to her, "I've gotta say, it's not that bad of a dormitory. Trust me, I've seen much worse places than this."

Uraraka couldn't help but chuckle a little at how Chloe was settling in pretty well. She then noticed Bakugo sitting down across the common room, which made Chloe blush a little. Uraraka definitely noticed something going on between them, but let it slide for now. She glanced down at Midoriya's backpack again and tightened her fists some more.

"I just... I thought I was going to settle in easy," Uraraka said to her, "But then..."

Uraraka hoped that Chloe wouldn't notice her being jealous or anything like that.

"Let me guess, that blonde girl showed up and ruined your plans," Chloe said to her, "Who she was, she looked liked she really like Izuku."

Uraraka's eyes widened in shock and felt herself go bright red from Chloe's sudden realization.

"Wh-What?! Yo-You mean Melissa! I- No! Sh-She's just a friend of Izuku's! T-That's all!" Uraraka cried out, causing others to look at her.

"Ooh... Someone's jealous about Midoriya being with Melissa," Kaminari said from across the room.

"Yeah. Wait a minute," Ashido interrupted, "Who's Melissa? Someone from Midoriya's middle school or something?"

Uraraka remembered that Ashido went to I-Island, but didn't actually meet Melissa. She felt her cheeks brighten up even more when she thought about talking about her and Midoriya.

"W-Well... Melissa and Izuku met on I-Island. They were friends because... well actually, I don't know why they are friends," Uraraka said to Ashido, "I just thought that maybe they liked the same things so they got along really well."

Uraraka couldn't even look at Ashido as she explained it to her. All she could do was stare at the floor.

"Well, it sounds like Izuku has something to hide," Chloe said to them, "Maybe they used to date or something?"

"N-No! Th-They definitely did not m-mate, g-gate, r-rate, Date!" Uraraka cried out as she covered her face.

Uraraka felt herself floating into the air as she spun around in a circle. Everyone looked at her in awe, especially Ladybug's teammates and Cat Noir. Chloe didn't even know that she could do that to herself. Ashido smiled at her, remembering the last time that she did this.

"Uraraka, you are not jealous, are you?" Ashido asked her, still in the air.

"N-No! I'm not jealous! I-I'm just worried about him, that's all," Uraraka said back, still covering her blushing face.

"Maybe we should help her down," Cat Noir said to them.

"Nah, she'll get down on her own," Ashido said back to her, "She's done this before."

Uraraka finally removed her hands from her face to help calm her down. All she could was think about what Midoriya must've been doing with Melissa. She felt her face getting pretty warmed up and felt like she needed to fan herself. She wanted to like Melissa, but she hadn't even gotten to really know that much the last time she saw her. She didn't like feeling this way, so she thought if she knew her better, then maybe those feelings would go away.

Uraraka looked down to realize that she was upside down. Then she realized that she had activated her quirk, with her gloves on. She then worried that maybe that might've done something with her Miraculous. She just hoped that Chrysalis wasn't around to notice this. Once she deactivated her quirk, she fell towards the floor. Cat Noir instinctively ran over and caught her in his arms.

"That was a close one," Cat Noir said to her.

"Y-Yeah. Thanks Cat Noir," Uraraka said, still in his arms.

Uraraka was still a little flustered from being jealous, so she quickly got out of his arms before Ashido could say anything.

"So, Cat Noir," Sero said to him, "What's Ladybug like? You are partners with her, right?"

"Is she as flexible as she looks--"

Mineta quickly earned himself a jab in the ear by Jirou's earphone jack. Cat Noir felt a little uncomfortable talking about her with someone like him around, so he focused more on Sero.

"Ladybug, she... well, she is a really good leader to the team," Cat Noir told them, "She's actually pretty good at figuring things out when no one else can. Her Lucky Charm can get pretty crazy from time to time."

"I heard her mentioning her Lucky Charm," Yaoyorozu said to him, "She said that it's similar to my quirk. Although by what she's said, it seems more random than actually picking something to use against a villain."

"It is," Cat Noir said with a slight laugh, "Her Lucky Charm can seem a bit of a stretch sometimes, but then she surprises me and is able to pull it off a lot easier than I thought she would. She's amazing."

Some of the classmates in the common room, noticed how he was complimenting her. Even Mineta took notice of this.

"So, do you like her?" Sero asked him, "Just by the way you're talking about her I can tell that there's something between you two."

Cat Noir wasn't flustered as he thought he'd be. Since they were now together, he was okay with everyone knowing about them being a thing. Then he spotted Jirou and felt a little bit uncomfortable talking about this in front of everyone. Some of them didn't even know that him and Jirou dated for a little bit before coming here. He noticed that Jirou spotted him looking at her and blushed a little bit. Kaminari stood next to her and was confused by their interaction.

He thought that he might as well get it out of the way now so Jirou and him didn't have to let this drag out for so long.

"A-Actually, we're dating," Cat Noir said to them, "I've loved Ladybug since the day I first met her, and she is finally starting to see me the same way that I do."

"That sounds romantic," Kaminari commented, making Jirou a little bit flustered, "Maybe we could go out sometime too, Jirou?"

Cat Noir noticed her looking really uncomfortable with him asking her out in front of everyone. Just the way he looked at her reminded him of how he used to feel about Ladybug back then.

"Kaminari, now's not the time for this," Jirou said back, still looking flushed.

Cat Noir really didn't think he'd be here, so it felt weird to him to see her with someone else. They soon locked eyes onto one another, and they both felt the same way. Jirou froze in place as she stared in his eyes. He stiffened up, realizing something about the way she was looking at him. Cat Noir could tell that she still had some sort of feelings for him. His eyes widened in shock, but immediately turned back to everyone else.

Sero and a couple of others noticed him looking at Jirou and got confused looks on their faces. Cat Noir was really hoping that they wouldn't notice.

"What's going on between you and Jirou?" Ojiro asked him, "You two seem a little... what's the word I'm looking for?"

"Tense?" Sero said back.

"Yeah, that's it," Ojiro said to him.

"I noticed it too," Hagakure said to them, "You two are hiding something. Aren't you?"

Cat Noir felt his cheeks warm up as Jirou started to get a little nervous. He could tell that she really didn't want everyone to know about them. They just got back home, and he understood why she wouldn't want any of this out right now. Even Kaminari seemed a little bit confused and wondered the same thing.

"Wait, there's something going on between you two?" Kaminari asked, looking a little bit annoyed.

"N-No. There's nothing going on between me and Kyouka," Cat Noir said to them, "We're just friends. It's me and Ladybug that are together after all."

Everyone looked at him, noticing something strange about this interaction. The classmates that were there didn't dare to say anything since they knew that Cat Noir and Jirou dated for a while. Some of them even had knowing looks on their faces.

"Then why did you call Jirou by her first name, ribbit?" Asui asked him.

"W-We called them by their first names," Cat Noir tried to explain, "We're from Paris after all. Right, Ash--... Mina?"

Cat Noir looked at Ashido with pleading eyes to please go with it. Ashido crossed her arms and looked back at the rest of her classmates who weren't there.

"He's right. It's really not a big deal over there in their Paris," Ashido said to them, "We all called each other by our first names. There's nothing going on between Cat Noir and Jirou."

Cat Noir mouthed out thank you to Ashido, and she smiled back. Then Cat Noir looked back at Jirou who was looking much calmer than before.

"I figured. I was just kidding anyway," Ojiro said back, "It's not you two actually dated."

"Yeah. That would be weird," Mineta said to them, "Jirou doesn't seem like the type to date someone like yo--"

Jirou almost jabbed him in the ear again, but pulled back a little this time. Cat Noir noticed how uncomfortable she looked about this whole situation. He had a feeling that she felt the same way about them, mostly him, being here. She wasn't expecting it in any way shape or form. Cat Noir wanted to talk to her, but didn't want anyone else to notice things between them. Kaminari looked at her and was confused as to why she was so defensive about all of this.

"Jirou?" Kaminari said to her.

"I-It's nothing..." Jirou said back, clearly flustered about the whole thing, "Can we please talk about something else?"

"Yeah, maybe you can explain to me what these Miraculous are," Yaoyorozu said to them, "Especially these... what are your little friends called again?"

"They are called Kwamis," Cat Noir said back, "And they are what power up our Miraculous. They are what give us our superpowers in the first place."

A lot of Class 1-A's classmates that knew nothing about them were so interested in them, especially Yaoyorozu. She kept trying to get a closer look at one of them, but they would fly away before she could.

Uraraka watched them having fun with the Kwamis, making her feel so much better. She was just so glad that no one was asking her questions or talking about Melissa anymore. She looked back at the backpack, hoping that she can at least try to make things better between the two of them. Whatever they were doing, she trusted Midoriya and knew that he would never do anything that would ruin their relationship.

She let out a long sigh, feeling herself finally relax.


Earlier in Inko Midoriya's Apartment...

Lila and Gabriel finally made their way to Mrs. Midoriya's apartment. It was not what they expected. They were both hoping for something more in the city or something more fancy. They followed her into the apartment as they looked around to see where they were exactly. Lila was at least glad that they weren't anywhere that might seem suspicious to anyone else. It just looked like any regular Japanese, run down apartment.

Soon they made it Mrs. Midoriya's apartment, and she searched her pocketbook for her key.

"I'm so glad that I found you when I did," Mrs. Midoriya said to them as she searched, "I just got a lot of ingredients to make some ramen if you guys want some."

"That sounds great, Mrs. Midoriya," Lila said to her, "I really can't wait to try it!"

Mrs. Midoriya finally took out her keys and unlocked her front door. Soon enough, they entered her apartment. Lila and Gabriel were surprised to find it pretty small. There was a hallway that led to her room and what Lila thought might be Midoriya's room. She smiled slyly as they walked down the hallway and soon entered the living room. It opened into the kitchen and dining room as well.

"Wow! This place a lot bigger than I thought it would be," Lila said as she placed Mrs. Midoriya's bags on the floor, "Your son Izuku is lucky to have a mother like you around."

"Oh, you're too kind Cerise," Mrs. Midoriya said to her as she started putting away some of the groceries, "Make yourself at home. I'll get you some sheets and pillows when I'm all done making dinner."

"Do you want me to help out with dinner? I'm a pretty good cook," Lila said to her as she pulled out a thing of seaweed.

"No, it's okay. It's actually kind of nice to cook for someone again," Mrs. Midoriya said back, "It's been a while since my son came over for dinner. I don't mind the company."

Lila smiled and walked around to take it all in. It was crazy to her that she was actually in her enemies home. She couldn't help but smile at how it worked out so well. Midoriya was all she could think about as she held his Miraculous in the palm of her hand. She put it in her pocket so Mrs. Midoriya wouldn't notice it.

She glanced back at Midoriya's room and wondered what his room was like. She had a feeling it was a lot of superhero collectibles just based on his obsession with AllMight and other heroes.

"Isn't this a little bit much, Lila?" Gabriel whispered to her, "We can't stay in Izuku Midoriya's apartment. His mom will figure it out soon enough."

"Relax, Gabi," Lila whispered with a smile, making him uncomfortable, "I've got this under control. All of the akumas are in hiding, and she doesn't even realize who we are. As long as she knows nothing about Chrysalis and HawkMoth, we'll be fine."

"Fine. But she's going to find out soon," Gabriel said back in annoyance.

Lila gave him a sly smile and went back to Mrs. Midoriya. She was gathering up the ingredients to make ramen.

"So, how is Izuku?" Lila asked her, "I'm sure you've at least talked to him. I mean, I'm sure he's not too busy to talk to his own mother."

Mrs. Midoriya stopped what she was doing, and Lila noticed it. She wondered what she might be thinking, and Mrs. Midoriya let out a long sigh.

"Actually, I haven't talked to him a long time," Mrs. Midoriya confessed, "He was going on a field trip to Paris, believe it or not. Then I got a call that no one had heard from them in over a month. Not even the hotel that they were supposed to go to never showed up."

Lila tried not to show any sign of the fact that she knew what was going on.

"Wow. That just terrible," Lila said back with so much worry in her voice, "I hope that he's okay."

Lila then noticed that Mrs. Midoriya was crying. A lot.

"I just... miss him so much," Mrs. Midoriya said to her, "I said that you could meet him soon, but I was hoping that that meant he'd show up any day now looking healthy and safe."

Lila tried to fight the urge to roll her eyes, but then went to comfort her. She knew what was going on with those wannabe heroes and wondered what was going on in that school of theirs.

"I'm sure that he'll be okay, Mrs. Midoriya," Lila said to her, "He sounds like someone that never gives up without a fight."

"Thanks Cerise," Mrs. Midoriya said back as she wiped her tears, "I really do think that he's okay. I have a feeling that he's going to come back. I'm sure of it."

Mrs. Midoriya glanced down at Lila's chest and noticed the Butterfly Miraculous. It was in its camouflage mode.

"What's that? It's looks like a locket of some sort," Mrs. Midoriya asked her, "Is it special to you?"

Lila looked down and almost ripped it off of her shirt. Then she remembered that she had no idea what it was.

"Yeah. It is," Lila said back, "It belonged to my grandmother. It was passed down to me by my mother. It's been in our family for generations, actually."

"That sounds very special to you and your family," Mrs. Midoriya said back with a smile, "I'm sure your mother is very proud of you. I can tell that you and your father are very close."

Mrs. Midoriya glanced over at Gabriel who was sitting at the couch in the living room. Lila almost felt like she was going to throw up for Mrs. Midoriya just mentioning them being family. She smiled as she refused to look at Gabriel.

"Yeah... We're very close," Lila said to her, "He wanted to me to come along on this trip actually in the first place."

"Well, I hope you get to walk around and see all of the amazing things here in Japan," Mrs. Midoriya said back to her, "There's even a new museum as a tribute to AllMight. He retired recently so the city thought it would be best to have one for him."

"That sounds like fun! I've never really heard of this, AllMight," Lila said to her, "Is he super strong? He has to be pretty strong if he's the Symbol of Peace."

"Yeah. He is," Mrs. Midoriya said to her with a wide smile, "I've met him, and he's seems like a nice man. I don't know much about him like my son does. He's the one that always been a fan of his ever since he was little."

"Well, I hope that I get to meet him someday soon," Lila said back.

Then the phone rang, making Mrs. Midoriya jump in place. She stumbled to put her kitchen tools down and picked up the phone. Lila watched her talk on the phone and noticed that it was someone from U.A. She even noticed that Mrs. Midoriya's face was turning pale. After she finished the call, Lila had a feeling she knew what this was about. Even Gabriel had the same feeling.

"What's going on Mrs. Midoriya?" Lila asked her with a concerned look on her face.

Mrs. Midoriya looked like she was about to cry again, and her hands were shaking a little.

"It's my son, Izuku. He's home. He's finally home."
