The formerly quirkless teenager, now in possession of the Omnitrix and the 9th holder of One For All, was running to the front entrance.
Momo invited him to an event and had to get permission from the teachers to leave the campus as they planned to stay out for a while.
Izuku got closer to the gate and saw Yaoyorozu waiting for him, as the girl was in front of a limo.
The girl turned in his direction and smiled.
"Midoriya, what took you?"
"S-Sorry, it seems Mineta and Kaminari figured out that I'll be hanging with you and..."
The girl raised her hand."Say no more."
"We have time to spend before we need to get ready. Where would you suggest we should spend in the meantime? Alfred will drop us off."
"Uh, honestly... I didn't think of that. I was kinda hoping we would wander around,"
"That's fine by me, here you can put your backpack in the car. You can get it when we need to get ready."
Momo proceeded to knock on the front window. The two placed the backpacks in the car, and Yaoyorozu waved her driver away as the two took off into the city.
...
From Heights Alliance, the girls and some of the guys looked on, with either envy or a proud look.
"How does he do it!?" Sero shouted as they watched the two begin to leave and began small talk.
Mineta was in a murderous rage of envy."First, he gets to see her breasts, and the bastard gets to hang out with the most beautiful girl in the hero course?!"
Some of them felt a twitch in their chests. It was no secret that Yaoyorozu was beautiful, accompanied by her intelligence. A lot of the girls were somewhat envious.
"How come she gets to hang out with Midori," Hagakure said under her breath.
"Well, she asked, and he said yes, "Todoroki commented as he was reading a book peacefully.
...
The two began small talk.
"So, Midoriya, how have you come along with your new transformation? I'm sure from recording Tsu in your notes, you have some idea on how to use it."
Izuku rubbed the back of his head, and his cheeks turned a tint of red."W-Well, not exactly..."
The girl tilted her head in confusion.
"Getting a new transformation is all great, but it also means I've to start from square one."
"Oh, I see, people have their whole lives to figure the ins and outs of the quirks, getting a new form must be vexing,
"Yeah, but it's also fun, knowing what my aliens can or cannot do is awesome, though I could do without having the urge to flirt with classmates," Izuku said with a chuckle, Momo giggled.
"Yes, you were quite bold as that transformation."Momo teased the boy whose face turned red from the memory.
"Again, I'm sorry for what I said,"
"It's fine, but the way you were ogling our legs and our bodies was embarrassing."
"I-I w-w-wasn't--" Izuku wanted to lie and say he wouldn't ogle her or any of the girls.
"Izuku, Mineta is not the only pervert I have had to deal with, you're not the first nor will be the last guy to ogle me," Momo said, to which Izuku hung his head in shame.
Before he remembered the day he met her, when they were on a train a lot of guys were looking at her with lewd expressions. Even though not often some guys in the school looked at her like that, "Oh, that's right, she's probably used to it by now, but it probably still made her uncomfortable."
"S-Sorry Momo, I don't know what came over me when I transformed... I don't know what came over me. One minute, I'm me next...I'm an alien frog, who apparently can't stop flirting with every female within a 50-mile radius! "He cringed, remembering what he said, how he shoved Mina and Tokage to a wall.
"I'm sorry," Izuku said in absolute shame, embarrassment and guilt. He didn't want to make his female friends feel uncomfortable around him. His female friends were some of the closest people he made at U.A. He didn't want to be like Mineta around them. He respected them wholeheartedly.
"Though you're not the first guy to ogle me..."She looked down, her cheeks began turning a light shade of pink. "You're the first guy, I kinda liked you thought of me in that way... "
Izuku, head previously down, went up, eyes widened slightly as he looked at the girl who was quickly turning a shade of scarlet."Uh... Bu...hu..."
Izuku couldn't form a cohesive sentence. Instead, said marble gibberish.
"Ahem."The girl coughed into her hand, trying to subside her blush.
"Anyways, how do you plan on progressing with your new transformation?"
Izuku's mind was blank before he was brought back to the world."W-Well, it's hard," Izuku activated the Omnitrix and began going through his Playlist, the green glow illuminating his face.
"My transformations have so many abilities, focusing on one transformation may cause me to lack in others," Izuku said as he stopped dialling and deactivated the Omnitrix.
"Hmm, that's true having such a wide of abilities has its ups and downs, but since a few of your forms have the same abilities you could hone the ability in one form and incorporate them in both forms for example if two forms have fire abilities instead of training with both forms, train with one specifically the fire aspect, and honestly the flame control and apply what you have learned to the other form."
Midoriya watched as she seemingly tried to figure out how to train better. He pictured himself using Heatblast abilities, techniques such as the flaming dragon, into Swampfire.
He quickly shook his head before he began to go on his muttering spree, ever since he got to U.A well specifically when he spends with Yui she never stopped when he begins his muttering spree, he honestly really appreciated and found it cute when the girl seemed to understand every word he said.
"Momo, it's okay. We should just have a good time. There is no need to focus on my problems, at least not right now. The problem we should be focusing on is how we are going to fend off the possible boredom until the evening."
Momo began to ponder before a good place to hang out came to mind."Izuku, I may have a possible solution."
Momo grabbed the boy by his hand and dragged him to who knows where.
...
"Yaoyorozu, where are we going?"The two were currently on a bus.
"You'll see, will kill time and find a suit you could wear."
"Why can't you just -"
"Psst, hey, you two." Midoriya, the two emerged in the conversation and turned to the businessman trying to get their attention.
"I knew it! You're Midoriya, the kid who won the Sports Festival! And you're Yaoyorozu! You were both awesome!!"
Izuku and Momo blushed."Oh! Uh, thank y-!"
"Wait, Midoriya?"
"Holy crap it's Yaoyorozu too!"
"Holy shit it is them!!"
"So cool! Can we get the picture with both of you!"
"My daughter loved you! You were amazing!!"
"You won all three events now that's impressive!"
"Oh, my gosh! Is this like a date?" A girl proceeded to squeal like a fan girl."The girl who can create anything and the boy who turns into anything, a match made in heaven!"
Izuku made very cute strawberry, and Yaoyorozu wasn't any different as her face turned a deep red.
"Midoriya, shorter than I thought."
"You were so cool! But your forms are super creepy. You should stay with your cute face. It's much better."
"You beat that loud explosion and pile drove him to the ground! Epic!!"
Izuku would be ecstatic right now if it wasn't for his lack of social skills, making the Omnitrix wielder shut down. Luckily, he had Momo.
She bowed to everyone." Thank you for your kind words. We really do appreciate them."
Eventually, the bus came to a stop, and the two quickly hurried out of the bus.
The crowd gave the two a thumbs up and said."Keep up the great work, heroes!!"
"Thank you."
"W-We appreciated it," Izuku said stiff as a statue.
As they were about to leave, they heard a squeal."The boy who can turn into anything and the girl who can create anything, a couple made in heaven!!"
Both teenagers took this moment to leave the scene, their faces slowly turning red."I really hope this doesn't create rumours or anything." Izuku said,
Momo sighed before putting a hand to her face."We're in the public eye now. Rumours are bound to happen it's only natural. Pro heroes have to deal with this, Mt. Lady and Kamui Woods, Midnight, having illicit relationships with students. It's just a part of being in the public eye. "
Izuku sighed. He heard what pro heroes go through on a regular day, having so many fangirls and fans honestly sounds daunting to the Omnitrix wielder.
"Oh, we're almost there. Follow me, Izuku."
Izuku walked with Momo looking at the street, There were a book and restaurants nearby, and a few people were walking when they saw Yaoyorozu. A few people gave the girl a friendly wave.
They stopped at the store, Izuku smelled the store in front of them and could make the faint scent of, cookies, cakes and other bakers, which was contracting because he could also see mannequins that were modelling clothes.
"We're here. We can enjoy some tea and some bakeries. While we get you an article of formal clothing."
Izuku from the scent was drooling a little from the sweet smell. Unfortunately, hanging around with Ochako has given him a sweet tooth.
"This place smells amazing."He turned to Momo."And it's also a clothing shop?"
Momo nodded."She's a friend of the family, she makes the best dresses and suits, she's the best designer. From here to France."
Izuku listened as he looked at the sign."Dupain-cheng clothing."
He looked around the street he noticed a book store nearby and a cafe nearby, Izuku could tell from how everyone greeted her she must come here often.
"We could read a few books after we get you're fitting, I don't know if you are an avid reader like myself, but I thought it would be a nice stop."
"Oh, no, this place is amazing! Maybe if you want, we can look around or hang out."
Momo surprised nodded. This place was where she felt more comfortable having Izuku here it would just be a bonus.
As they entered the smell of bakeries and exotic fabric, they flooded their noses. The bell dinged throughout the store, alerting that there were customers.
"Welcome-- Ah! Momo!" An attractive young woman, she looked to be in her late 20s, maybe around Ryuko's and Miruko's age, she was slim and shapely body. She had a fair skin tone, followed by a long ponytail that was black hair with blue reflections.
"Momo, it's so good to see you again! You never come by anymore!" The woman embraced Momo in a warm hug, to which the girl gladly reciprocated, before letting go.
"Marinette, it's good to see you too, and I'm sorry for not coming by more, I have been quite preoccupied with hero work, training, and..."
The woman giggled. "Don't worry about it, I know a little thing or two about having a hero's responsibility. But I saw you at the sports festival, you were amazing!"
Momo's cheeks turned faint of pink."Oh, you watched that? I-I wasn't that amazing." She said, looking away. However, the older woman soon got into her face and began barrading with praise.
"Yes, you were! During the Obstacle course, you were amazing, though on repeat, I'm not sure what that grape kid was trying to do, he had such a lecherous look on his face, a little advice you probably stay away from him." She remembered a scene where Mineta attempted to stick herself on Momo's back before he was blasted by Bakugou's large explosion when stinkfly had shot at his leg.
"Yes, he's quite... persistent," Momo said before remembering all of his pervert antics towards her and the rest of the girls. She luckily had Izuku and Iida, who rained him in.
"I'm sure you probably got the attention of all the boys in your class, " Momo blushed from that statement."Even though it's the unwanted kind, but I'm sure you and that Todoroki will make such a cute couple, y'know you both remind me and Adrien." She said with a blissful smile.
Momo was puzzled. She and Todoroki barely interacted, let alone in the Sports Festival, they had zero interaction, at least publicly."Oh, no, me and Todoroki are just classmates... "
She glanced at Izuku from her insinuation that she and Todoroki would be a good couple, to her no surprise, Izuku looked normal she knew the boy didn't have a jealous bone in his body, but she had hoped he would react.
Marinette quickly noticed how she glanced at Izuku, "Oh, and this is...the kid who was on your team, right?"
Izuku straightened up his hands to the side."H-Hi, I'm Izuku Midoriya." Izuku said.
The older woman chuckled."I know who you are, you won the Sports Festival, and you also made sure no one saw Momo's... assets"
The teens blushed, remembering the incident, Izuku's face turned completely crimson, and steam began to come out of his head."Don't think about them, don't think about them, don't think about them, don't think about them, you are not a pervert, you are not a pervert, you are not a pervert, you are not a pervert, "
"Even though it helped your opponent you respected your friend's privacy, that was quite admirable."
"Uh, it was no problem, Momo's my friend, she would've done the same if I was in her position."
"Well, you are a boy, so you could afford to show more skin, especially the top part, I mean, it happened with your fight with Monoma..."
"Momo!"Izuku exclaimed in surprise. The girl giggled.
"I'm only joking. You know I would do the same, though I would still have my eye on my opponent."
Izuku blushed and looked away."I didn't want to look without permission,"
"You do realize you're going to fight female villains one day. Honestly, your chances of fighting a woman with no clothing are surprisingly high."
"Those are villains, you're my friend,"
"So villains don't deserve their privacy anymore?"
"N-No, I-I mean it depends, obviously, but some like the bodies should be treated with respect!"
"Izuku, you can't take your eyes off regardless of the clothing, and you probably shouldn't get flustered by the opposite sex so offend. "Momo said
"Hey, I don't get flustered!"
"Should I remind you of the Capture Flag incident with Ashido?"
Izuku's face turned red, the girl made an innuendo, and this made him absolutely flustered, and she got a few hits in that he almost lost the flag."Okay, okay, maybe I need to work better when it comes to female villains,"
Marinette watched as the two banter, which was cute, the two continued bantering and talking mindlessly, they giggled here and there, and Izuku laughed a little.
"You two are so cute."She said, getting the attention, the two quickly were brought back from the little moment.
"Oh, sorry, Marinette, we got off track."Momo bowed her face, turning a shade of red.
"I'm sorry too."Izuku apologized.
"No, worries."Marinette waved her arms rapidly."Anyways, is there a reason you're here, or did you come to visit an old friend?"
"Ahem. Well, the ball is this evening, and Izuku needs a formal suit, I was hoping you could do us a favour. You're the best in the field."
"Aw, you're gonna make me blush," Marinette said with a wave of a hand.
"But since you're both going together, you probably should have matching or at least outfits that complement the other," Marinette said as the two began to follow further her into the store.
...
A few moments later, Izuku was uncomfortably measured, "Stand still, I almost got your measurements." The woman said as Izuku straightened up.
"R-Right s-sorry," Izuku strained out.
The woman began to measure his wrist with the Omnitrix. She had to accommodate for it, especially since it didn't come off.
"Alright, done!" Marinette exclaimed, clapping her hands together.
Izuku sighed in relief. "T-Thank Dupain-cheng."
"Call me Marinette, it's okay, I know it's a little informal, but you're Momo's friend, so it's okay." She said, wiping a bit of sweat as she grabbed her notebook and looked through her designs. She smiled. "Your suit will be ready within the next few hours, now Momo, it's your turn."
"W-What, I already have a dress--"
"I know, but since you're bringing a date, it would be best if you complimented one another, don't you think?"
"You don't have to," Momo reassured.
"I know, I want to." She then turned to Midoriya.
"Hey, Midoriya, if you wouldn't mind getting us some tea from the cafe a few down the street."
"Huh? Uh, sure, I'm not sure what type of tea you like, I know Momo likes golf tips and two brown sugars, but I'm not sure ifmutermuttermuttermutter."Izuku began at mutter storm of Momo's favourite tea.
Marinette comedically pushed the muttering Izuku out of her door."Get what you think is best."
Marinette, however, couldn't help but notice the slight similarities between her and Izuku from when she was his age.
"So, you like Midoriya, don't you?" Marinette said as she began to measure the girl. Truthfully, she had already met Momo's measurements, but she wanted to speak with the girl one-on-one.
Momo's face turned a shade of red.
...
Izuku muttering under his breath walked into the tea shop, so busy he hadn't noticed the cafe was a cat-Cafe. Barely two steps in, and he felt the pair of eyes of nearly every feline.
Izuku didn't often go to cat cafes mostly he never had any reason to but being here was surreal, he felt something soft brush his leg, and he looked down and saw a black with emerald eyes like himself nuzzle and purr on his leg.
"O-Oh, hey little guy." Izuku kneeled down to the cat before patting it affectionately.
"Hello, dear customer. Welcome to Nekopara, our wonderful cafe. If there's anything we can help with, just say the word and will promptly help you." A girl a year or two older than him.
The woman was in a maid outfit that emphasised a woman's attributes, especially when she stuck out her chest, and she wiggled her cat ears, which Izuku suspected were real.
" Ah...! Yes! I-I'm.. I would really like three cups of tea, two sugars, Earl Grey, Golden Tip Emporium, and... I'll have the house recommendation. " Izuku looked at the menu
Izuku sat down next to a man who was enjoying his own cup of tea. The man next to him looked familiar to Izuku, but he couldn't remember.
The man had slick white hair with a curl at the front. He looked to be in his 30s. He had a refined appearance with a handlebar moustache and a well-kept medium-sized beard.
He sat next to the man waiting for his order. The man seemed to look at him, his eyes squinted. "You're Izuku Midoriya, correct?"
"Ah, a hero in training... I watched you were quite incredible and quite ambitious too, symbol of Peace? Clearly, you wish to leave your mark on this world." He said, dramatically spreading his arms.
Izuku scratched his head. In confusion, but he couldn't help but think the man looked familiar.
"Ah, and have quite an exotic taste in tea, this establishment isn't as fancy or well known, but they sell the most delicious tea," He took in a whiff of the establishment.
"Y-Yeah, my friend suggested we should come here, though I have never been to a cat cafe before." He said as a cat walked up to him and sat comfortably on his lap.
"Your friend must have a splendid taste!" The man said, to which Izuku smiled.
"Yeah..."
"Oh? Would this friend be a girl?" The man asked with an eyebrow raised.
Izuku quickly became flustered." I-I-I d-don't know what you're talking about!"
"Wow, you're a terrible liar!"
Izuku's face turned comedically black and white as he had a deadpan expression. "Wow, does everyone keep saying that?"
"But I recognised a man who's been struck by love! I, too, have been, unfortunately, struck by this..."He said as he looked at a short woman with red hair in pig tag tails chasing kitty around.
Izuku blushed
"I can tell you're a comic book fan. Tell me what heroes do? Especially when the odds are stacked against them, back against the world?"
Izuku remembered all of the comic books he'd read, from Ultimate Spiderman to Superman to The Flash.
"They always... go beyond the limits. Even though the odds seem impossible, they push what they could do before and GO BEYOND!"
"Correct. Why do they always go beyond the impossible? Why did Batman train himself to go beyond? How Spiderman always gets back up even though the world gets back up!"
"Uh... To save people?" Izuku thought that was the obvious answer,
"Yes, and no! The answer is love!"
Izuku had a deadpan expression.
"I... I don't think that's right."
"Oh? When the heroes are at their lowest, don't they remember what they have to protect? Why do they have to get back up? Spiderman has to get back to the people he loves from Aunt May to Mary Jane! Why did Batman become Batman? Because he lost the family he loved so much so he has to make sure no one loses the loved ones!"
Izuku thought about this, he read a lot of manga, and love wasn't really a big factor when it came to defying the impossible, usually, it was to fight for the dream, but when it came to comics they go beyond and sacrifice, body and mind for the people most dear to the heart.
Heroes even kept their identity secret so they ones wouldn't get hurt. He saw a lot of similarities, and he had to keep One For All and Omnitrix hidden so they wouldn't get hurt.
"Hope my wisdom has enlightened young man." The man stood up, grabbing his cane.
"Labra-- Aida, let's go!! We have content to make my love!"
The woman who was currently petting a cat with ginger fur immediately stopped and rushed over to him.
"Now? I thought today was going to be our day off!! Gentle, you promised!!" The short woman began to wave her arms rapidly and berate the man.
"Sir, your orders are ready." The woman handed Izuku his order and gave him a warm smile.
"Ah, thank you so much!" Izuku bowed to the woman before he was handed a small brown bag with a logo on it.
"Eh? I didn't order this?" Izuku said before the girl, with a flirtous smile, her hands were at the back of her, as she posed for him.
"It's on the house, especially for the first place winner for the Sports Festival." The girl said as she batted her eyes, he gulped.
"T-Thank you," Izuki said as he slowly but hurriedly got out of the cafe. He walked back he's face turning a shade of red.
"Izuku?" He heard Momo's voice and turned to the girl,
"Oh, Momo!" He said excitedly.
"I got you some tea you like, though I'm not sure Dupain-cheng will enjoy what I got for her."
"She's fine. Do you mind if we do some light reading while we wait?" Momo asked.
"Sure!" Izuku said before Momo then noticed something in Izuku's cup of tea.
"Uhm, what's that?" She gestured to the writing.
"Mhm?"Izuku asked before noticing some scribbling on his tea. On the close of inspection, it was numbers, and Momo quickly noticed.
"Huh? She must have given me her number."Izuku said, looking at his cup of tea.
Momo, with her eyes closed and a smile on her exposed her arm Izuku could see the familiar glow when she created it as she constructed a marker.
"A... Marker?" Izuku thought.
The next thing he felt was his cup taken from his hand, the girl next thing scribbled over the cup before handing the cup back to Izuku.
"Let's go."
The two began walking to, Momo took some sip of her tea and beamed with a smile, and Izuku took on his sip."Oh, right there gave me this since I won the Sports festival."
He gave Momo the brown bag, and she peered inside to find some macaroons inside she took one."Mm, this is delicious."
"Y-Yeah, though I'm not sure how I feel about getting free stuff just because I won the Sports festival."
"You earned it. You should enjoy the spoils of war. Don't think too much about it," Momo said, enjoying the macaroon.
Izuku smiled at Momo as they began walking.
[Time skip]
Izuku adjusted his tie, feeling somewhat anxious as he looked at himself in the mirror.
"Come on! Come out already!" He heard the voice of Marinette.
He slowly opened the curtain and stepped out, his cheeks a tint of pink.
"H-How do I look?" Izuku asked, to which Marinette put both of her hands on her cheeks, her face in an O' shape as sparkles appeared in her eyes.
Midoriya had been in a black suit with golden accents, with a white dress shirt, a black bow tie and a jacket with gold trim and emblem on the chest.
Rewrite
"Amazing!!"The girl pulled out a handkerchief and wiped a tear from her face.
"I have truly outdone myself."
Izuku looked in the mirror and straightened his pose."I-I guess I don't look that bad."
Izuku said with a small smile. He then heard the curtain to where Momo had been putting on her dress.
"Hey, Momo--"When he turned around Izuku, whenever he recalled this memory, he could only say his heart skipped a beat, and his eyes widened a little.
Izuku mouth was agap, Momo was in a wavy black hair a star contrast from her usual pony tail.She was wearinf a form fitting floor V-neckline and a high slit on one side. The dress accentuates her curves and features a golden brlt around her waist.
Momo, upon seeing Izuku, widened a little as they looked at each other for a moment, both speechless.
"Ahem." They heard Marinette interrupt them, and they both flushed. Izuku looked down suddenly, finding the floor interesting.
"Y-You look beautiful--I mean, you always look beautiful, uh, just right now, you look incredible well--ah, man, I'm rambling," Izuku said, scratching his cheek.
Momo's had a faint blush. "You look handsome, yourself."
Izuku's blush deepened, and his mind went blank. No one really complimented his looks well except Yui, who over text would make small comments about his looks that sent him into a flustered mess.
"Well... Let's go, my driver has been waiting." She said before the two began to walk.
"Yeah... Okay!" Izuku exclaimed in excitement with a smile and eyes closed and his cheeks a tint of pink. Momo mirrored him with a friendly smile.
As they were about to leave, they were suddenly halted in their tracks. "Wait!" Marinette exclaimed to the two's confusion.
The girl seemed to be scrounging around from something. "Where is it? Where is it? I know it's somewhere in here!" The girl seemed to groan in annoyance.
"There!!" She exclaimed. The two looked at her as she turned around a camera in hand.
"We should have a photo, to y'know immortalize this moment." She said smiling. The two tilted their heads in confusion before Izuku blushed.
"I'm not exactly photo-genetic," Izuku said, blushing a little.
"It would be nice to have this moment as something to remember," Momo said before Marinette force-ably pushed them side by side.
"Say cheese!!" She exclaimed before a click was heard.
...
"We are here." The driver announced to the two who were amidst in a conversation. Izuku looked through the window and he was aghast, the building was magnificent.
The sounds of chatter and laughter filled the ballroom, guests young and old, arrived or have already been there since the beginning, and conversation soon began.
"This place is amazing," Izuku said in awe, the absolute wonder of the boys made the girl giggle.
"Huh? What's so funny?" Izuku asked in confusion.
"Oh, no, it's just its kinda cute how you geek out on everything around you," Momo said to which he blushed.
"We should head inside," Momo said before grabbing his hand, to which he yelped in surprise.
"Have a good evening Miss Yaoyorozu and Mr. Midoriya." The driver said before driving away. Izuku took a moment to look around seeing everyone in fancy clothes he recognized a few famous people, he honestly felt out of place, he wasn't from some prestigious family, he didn't think he was famous or popular, he just thought he was well Izuku Midoriya.
"S-Should I-I really be here? I mean, I know Momo wants me here, but..."
"Izuku?" He heard the voice of the girl herself who parted her hair to the side and gave him a soft smile.
"I'm happy you agreed to do this," Momo said before hooking her arm around his own, intertwining them.
"She is so happy," Izuku said, seeing the girl give a smile of bliss.
"I'm sorry about this by the way." She said as they began walking, a few guys looked at Momo, which made a few of the dates a little angry.
"Huh?"
"You don't any of these people. It sorta of feels like I forced you into this."
"No, not all! I-I mean yeah I do feel out of place but that's nothing new, and when you asked me I saw how excited you were and it made me look forward to it, at least I can take a break from the craziness of the sports festival."
"Really? I'm glad to hear it. I usually have to attend for Umi, it's kind of a public image thing." Momo said.
"Umi?"
"Let's go. The party is getting excited." Momo began to drag him inside the ballroom, the boy's face flushed red, and Momo's face was also turning a shade of red.
"He's so warm," She thought, as she pressed her body against him, Izuku's face turned more red as they walked inside.
They entered the ballroom, and as soon the two entered everyone fell silent, a few women and girls gave gasps of shock, some men around Momo's and Izuku's age a few older scowled, as the two blushing teens entered arms intertwined.
A few whispers began as conversation soon began around the ballroom. Izuku's anxiety only grew more, he's eyes darted all over the room. "Oh, man they talking about us, I'm probably an embarrassment for her, she should have brought Todoroki o-or someone else--"His self-depreciation was cut off as he felt two soft lips pressed against his cheek.
There was a moment of silence, he stopped thinking, and the anxious feeling began to fade, as his face turned a shade of red he's eyes slowly turned to Yaoyorozu, her eyes were closed, and she was kissing his cheek before he felt her lips leave his cheek. Already missing the soft feeling of her lips
"You mumble... a lot, just hold onto me. There's no need to feel nervous. Just don't let go, and let's enjoy the night." Momo said with a smile.
Izuku's mind processes what just happened. His heart was pounding. He blinked before returning the smile and pulling the girl closer to him.
"Y-Yeah."He said before they continued walking, Izuku took the time to enjoy the architecture of the ballroom, the chandeliers, to the marble floor all amazed the boy.
"This place is amazing," Izuku said, looking at the wonder place and with a smile. The girl giggled.
"Yes, the architecture is truly amazing, but far more interesting in this place is, the rich history, a few decades ago, a quirked and quirkless had the first dance here and that's where they fell in love, they couldn't be together, back then the saw anyone with quirks as an abomination to society, but despite the woman had blue skin and horns, he still loved her, "The girl looked in bliss as she laid her head on his shoulder.
"My grandfather told me so many stories of this place. It was nice."
"That's amazing, it just a reminder of how far we come from back then, we may not have know a lot about the history back then, but knowing this building has been here for that long is kinda nice," Izuku said to which the girl gave a nod.
The two enjoyed each other's company
"Yaoyoro--Uhm Momo, why did you ask me here? I mean, I know you said you wanted to deter boys away, but you seem far more capable
"I... I... "
"Oh, hey, Momo you made it!" The girl didn't have a chance to answer as she was cut off by 5 feet and 10 inches with white hair, the teenager was handsome he carried himself with confidence and Prestige.
"Ah, Umi!" Momo said with a wave as he approached them.
"Thanks for coming, this place gets so dull and boring without you, "
"No, no, it's my pleasure, I don't usually come to these events but this year's was an exception, oh! Umi this is Izuku Midoriya..."
Umi seemed to flinch a little he looked at Izuku. "Izuku Midoriya...? You won the sports festival? And you saved Mr Yaoyorozu a few months ago right?"
He offered a handshake, to Izuku, who accepted gracefully. "Hi, I'm Izuku Midoriya... Though Momo already said that..." Izuku said awkwardly.
"I'm Umi Minato, it's a pleasure, though I didn't think Momo would bring a date," Umi said, a smile on his face,
"Hey, he has the same smile Ochako has every time I talk to another girl," Izuku realized the similarities.
...
"Achoo!" Ochako sneezed as she was listening to Kyouka play some music, with Tsuyu.
"Ochako are you coming down with something?" Tsuyu asked in worry.
"If you're getting sick, no offense but go to your room no way I'm getting sick!" Kyouka said covering her mouth and scooting further back from Ochako.
"Oh, no, I'm fine." She wiped her nose.
"Maybe someone is talking about you?" Kyouka teased.
She sighed. "Probably, my dad going on about her little girl,"
...
"Sorry, we're a bit late."
"No, no, not at all! You were just fashionably late, though can't say I'm a little disappointed you brought a date." He gave an obviously forced chuckle, both Izuku and Momo seemed to be a little confused as they tilted their heads, and you could practically see the question marks on their heads.
"It was a last-minute decision, plus my father wanted me to come this year," She remembered her father essentially calling her and begging her to come to the event today.
"Alright, I'll see you guys around." He said as he turned away from them and gave a wave.
"Yep, see you!" Momo waved goodbye.
"Huh? That was fast... Didn't he have anything he wanted to talk about...? They old friends..." Izuku thought in confusion.
"Hey, it's Yaoyorozu! Here come check this out!" Momo was suddenly grabbed on the arm by a guy with black hair, similar to Iida's but more messy.
"C'mon join us!"
"Wh-Hey!!"
She was abruptly dragged away to a table with a bunch of elites from what he could tell, Izuku gave an awkward smile as Momo glanced back at him,
"So... What are your intentions with my daughter?" Izuku heard a familiar voice he yelped in surprise as he was face to face with the same man he saved from Dr. Animo a few months back.
"O-Oh, M-Mr. Yaoyorozu. I-It's g-good to see you again."
"Mhm, yes our first meeting wasn't ideal, but don't change the subject young man." He said with authority in his tone.
"W-Well, I-I don't have any intentions with her," Izuku said feeling somewhat anxious.
The man seemed to study him for a bit."Come with me." He commanded as he began to walk back inside. Izuku gulped.
"I-Is he going to kill me for the sports festival? I did hurt his daughter! Oh, no! Maybe I can go alien and escape."
"Well, I'm waiting." He said as if it was a warning, he made a loud gulp before they began walking, Izuku was sweating a little. To his surprise, they stopped at a table on a balcony looking over the city and mountains.
"So what would you like we offer some famous gourmet."
"O-Oh, uhm... I'm not really sure..." Izuku admitted
"I have to thank you."
"For saving my daughter, we can't express how grateful me and her mother are, you couldn't imagine my surprise when you saved me as well. I'm internally grateful knowing a young man like yourself is looking out for my daughter."
"O-Oh, no it was no big deal and she does more than she realizes."
"Oh?"
He nodded."I may be the representative but at times it feels like she's the class president instead of me, she's smart, and an amazing person too she's always helping out our classmates even from class B."
"You speak so highly of my daughter you sure you don't have any intentions with her?"
"N-No sir!"
"If I'm being honest I was very concerned for her, I'm her father obviously, I worry all the time, and I know how dangerous hero work can be, especially for female heroes, not only publicly and with how her quirk works and having to expose so much skin, I wasn't thrilled with the idea of my daughter of being a hero."
Izuku listened intentively he couldn't help but make parallels with his own mother she always worried about him, and even with how many abilities she still saw him as that 5-year-old boy playing heroes and villains with both parents.
"I know my daughter is a brilliant woman she gets it from her mother,"
Izuku nodded."Her strategy got us to the third event."
"But her lack to take initiative and hesitance when in it comes to making quick decisions making only made me worry, a hero needs to make quick decisions, one wrong move could result in a hero's death."
"...But, when I saw her at the sports festival her fight with... Fumikage Tokoyami made me realize my daughter was slowly but surely growing, she made quick decisions throughout the fight she analyzed her opponent and found his weakness, and won. Even with her battle with you, she proved to me how much she had grown and still growing to."The man said with a small smile.
"And you can call it a parent intuition but it probably has something to do with you." He said as I it was fact, Izuku quickly began to wave his arms rapidly.
"Oh, no she just got strong through her own strength," Izuku said.
The man shrugged."Possibly. But from what I can see she is still hesitant when it comes to..."He glanced at Izuku, he practically could see that the boy had a question mark on his head.
"...Other matters. Hesitation is never good for a hero, hope you remember that young man. A hero should never hesitate especially when something good is right in front of them." Izuku didn't really understand what the man meant, he thought about what he said for a moment putting a hand to his chin.
" A hero never hesitate--"Danger sense slightly went off, a piercing pain through he looked around." A villain?" He looked frantically
" Brother it's good to see you again. " Mr. Yaoyorozu said to an incoming man. He looked Similar to Yaoyorozu's father but he had brown hair, and a stoic expression as he introduced himself.
"No, need for formalities, it's Orrin." He gave Izuku a smile that unnerved him, it gave the same feeling from his nightmares the smile he would often get.
Izuku squinted his eyes a little."His voice... I have heard it before."
"So have you come to speak more of your ridiculous ideals about my daughter?" Mr Yaoyorozu said while sipping his tea barely acknowledging the man.
"Oh, no though I wish you would realize how much of an asset Yaoyorozu is, her quirk is splendid if we could--"
"No. My daughter will choose her own husband or wife whoever she wants to be with, please don't bother me with this, my daughter isn't some prize."
He scowled before inhaling. "That aside I'm not here for that I was hoping to meet... Izuku Midoriya."
Izuku raised an eyebrow. "Me?"
"Yes, you won the sports festival! And you saved my niece's life! Of course, I would want to meet you. I have been trying to Momo to introduce us... For quite a while." He said, he's mannerisms indicated he was being playful, he's eyes were closed but at the open times he could feel some hostility.
"Uh, it's nice to meet you," Izuku said trying to be polite.
"I have been wanting to meet you since... I saw you at the sports festival..." Izuku don't know but felt like that was a lie.
"I have a fondness for tech and support items, I must inspect the Omnitrix." He said so casually as he sat at the opposite end.
"... How do know it's called the Omnitrix?"
The tension between them suddenly grew tense, Izuku danger sense went off slightly, as the man still had his friendly smile. Izuku's heart began beating faster.
He chuckled. "Very observant. I must admit Momo talked about you so much that I may have hacked into the U.A. files."
"Oh," Izuku replied.
"I just didn't want my dear niece falling for some scoundrel, pardon my rudeness, but she's a very attractive and intelligent woman, but also naive when it comes to how the world works. I just didn't want her to be with someone unworthy."
"I-I guess, it sounds like any concerned parent or er... Uncle" Izuku said, the tension slowly declining.
"Father." The three were brought out as Momo came to the table, her father seeing this as an opportunity to leave and take his brother with him.
"Well, Momo I'm sure you would want to spend some time with this young man, c'mon Orrin let's depart." He said as he stood up and placed his hand on his shoulder and gave it a firm grip, he winced before standing up.
"If you will excuse us, Midoriya I enjoyed our conversation if you ever have some free time we could explore that unique support item."
"I'll put it under consideration," Izuku said but internally. "No way in hell!"
The two men bowed before walking away, Momo sat next to Izuku." Hey sorry! I had to make the rounds and sorry about them hope they didn't scare you."
"Oh, no it's fine, you're dad was a little intimidating but I liked him he seemed to really care and worry about you, kinda reminds me of my own mom," Izuku said with a nervous chuckle.
"Oh, and don't worry about it, I'm sure you had a lot to catch up with your high-class friends."
Momo sat down and placed a plate of shish kebab, from the smell, made Izuku drool and their stomach growl.
"I'm the one who invited... So I'm not going to leave you by yourself." Momo said, to which Izuku blushed.
"Let's eat," Momo said as she posed in a prayer position.
"Can't let it go to waste."
"R-Right!" Izuku mirrored as they began eating.
"MMM! It's sooo goood!" Momo said while chewing and smiling, Izuku glanced before blushing feeling his chest swell up before taking a bite.
"This is good, the flavour is salty but not too salty, and it has the right amount of barbeque sauce accompanied with green and yellow peppers to create an explosive taste," Soon the boy went on a muttering spree on the food.
From afar Umi glanced with a visible frown on his face. A few minutes before Izuku had to ask.
"Hey, Momo what does your uncle do?"
Momo raised an eyebrow. "Mhm, he's the deputy manager of Jorgeworth's Ironworks Company, why?"
"U-Uh, just curious, just trying to get to know a little more."
Momo wanted him to elaborate before three sets of footsteps approached them, Izuku looked and saw three teenage boys, one had blue skin and horns with eyes similar to Mina's but with green irises instead, and next up was a bulky guy with black hair no lower than 6 feet and 7 inches with a large torso and huge arms. And finally, the male in the middle, who seems to be the leader was a tanned individual with tanned skin, he was well built and ripped, with a slit in his left eyebrow and red eyes.
Izuku gulped at the admittedly intimidating three boys" Momo said she had to deter guys away, something tells me it's going to be hero time."
Whispers quickly began as some of the guests noticed who they were.
"Hey, that's Mangi, Ssireum prodigy!"
"Yeah, and the guy on the right is an MMA champ! He won three tournaments!!"
"But the guy in the middle who's you got to watch out for, he's a boxing champ! He never goes down without a fight!!"
The ballroom was quiet as they watched the three approach Izuku and Momo, they all stood at the table, the admittedly intimidating auras. Tension was high as Momo spoke up.
"Can we help you?" Momo said with authority.
"Are you Izuku Midoriya?" The middle guy asked, to which Izuku nodded.
"I see..."
"Can we have your autograph?!" They all said suddenly at the same time.
"..."
"Huh?"
"Eh?"
"We saw you fight in the underground tournament you were awesome we are total big fans!!" The big said as Izuku was absolutely stunned as he was kinda expecting to fight them off.
"Yeah, you seem more like a guy who prioritizes speed of strength so that's why your moves seem sloppy at the beginning of the tournament." The middle guy said.
Izuku thought about it, he knew when it came out right brawling he prioritised speed and overwhelming strength.
" But when we watched you in the sports festival you were totally awesome, we could see how much stronger you had gotten it was totally surreal!!"
Izuku blushed in embarrassment, as Momo smiled at the interaction.
"T-Thanks, I'm still working on my brute style of fighting,"
"You should learn different types of boxing, your Four Arms form could totally benefit from it."
"Your kicking could use a lot of work, I mean don't get me wrong the way you kicked the explosion guy, was awesome but it was obvious at least to anyone who had any knowledge when it came to kickboxing or using their kicks in combat you're an amateur at best. "The guy with blue skin said, to which Izuku nodded.
" Honestly I tried copying Miruko's fighting style I practised from her old videos and footage, that's the best I could learn from it. Plus I had an awesome teacher. "
All three had sparkles in the eye. "Who is this magnificent teacher?"
"Oh, she's one of the strongest people I know, her fighting prowess is awesome, without abilities she can kick my butt, and her hair is orange like fire, she never backs down from a fight..." Izuku began to mutter about Itsuka as Momo with a smile listened to the praise of Kendo.
" She sounds like a fighting goddess!"
" She is! "
One boy turned to Momo." Momo, how could you not tell us you were Izuku Midoriya's girlfriend? You are so lucky!! "
Momo blushed."W-Well, I mean we're just friends and..." Momo quickly noticed she was ignored as they seemed to quickly talk with Izuku.
As the Izuku quickly got acquainted with the three, the threatening and imposing figures and aura still made the atmosphere tense as they were worried a fight would break out.
"Uhm, Izuku?" Momo called out and Izuku turned to her.
"Yeah?"
"Some of the guests seem to still be in distress," Momo said as she gestured to the frightened guests.
The three teenagers immediately noticed and began to bow profusely to the guests. "We're sorry!"
"I kinda feel bad they really nice guys it's not the fault they look intimidating."
"Yes..."Momo thought about how they could remedy the situation before turning to Izuku.
"I think I know how to brighten up the mood," Momo said with a beaming smile at Izuku, who looked confused as he tilted his head in confusion.
...
"I-Is this really necessary?" Izuku asked as he was standing on stage with a microphone in his face.
"Please Izuku! We all heard you sing at the sports festival! You have a wonderful singing voice! Please for me!" Momo asked with a pleading look which admittedly was adorable and made the transformation hero cave and agree to.
He sighed, before tapping the microphone a few times to get everyone's attention.
...
Izuku's voice echoed through the room, his eyes closed in passion as he sang:
"See them stand ready to die
For whose sake, was life fair?
Pleasure pleased and power gained
Shall I deal death? Even though they seek to slay?"
The audience was entranced, their eyes fixed on Izuku as he poured his heart out. A few tears streaked down their faces, but they didn't look away.
"Sick at heart
Wicked betrayal
Another life
Escaping sight
The realm of flesh
Where all things change
That life is mine and I am there
That life is MINE and I am there…"
Izuku's voice rose, his emotions raw and powerful. The audience was captivated, hanging on every word.
"I'm Free
I'm Free
Unbound by fear
That's holding me
Holding...holding holding holding me
Death am I immortal life
Touch the sky again and repent
The dark alive inside of me
Loving made
But makes no sense
The potency
Of evil kings
None can perish trust in me
None can PERISH trust in me…"
Tears streamed down the faces of the audience, but they didn't look away. They were mesmerized by Izuku's performance.
"I'm Free
I'm Free
Unbound by fear
That's holding me
Holding, holding me
I'm free
I'm free
My love, my light
Will shine on thee
Will shine on shine on shine on..."
The audience was entranced, their hearts pounding with the music. They felt Izuku's emotions, his passion and his pain.
"My heart set on truth
That no fire can contain
Burning the body
Lay life in the flame
I scoured the good
And I thrusted the evil back
Sacrificed everything
Watched as it burned to ash
No more self-pity
No more will I wait
I'm breaking a path
That will take me away
From this place
Now I'm Free
Now I'm Free
Unbound by fear
That's holding me
Holding, holding me
Now I'm free
Now I'm free
My love, my light
Will shine on thee
Will shine on... shine on..."
The music faded away, and the audience was left breathless, their eyes still fixed on Izuku. They were captivated by his performance, and they knew they would never forget it.
...
As the song ended Izuku with a sigh as the room was silent, a few weeps in the crowd before a few seconds of silence before applause broke out.
The clapping echoed throughout the hall, Izuku flushed stepped down and walked to Momo who created a handkerchief and wiped away a few tears.
"Izuku that was beautiful," Momo said wiping a tear.
"Y-Yeah, t-though I don't think my nerves can take another singing audition, first the sports festival now this."
The lights of the ballroom began to dim, music in the background began to play,
Momo held out her hand shaking a little, Izuku gulped at the insinuation he slowly took it, his heart beating rapidly, he was afraid that he's hands were sweaty and the girl would slap it away in disgust.
"I-I'm not much of a dancer," Izuku said nervously.
Momo giggled."Just follow my lead, okay and please don't step on my toes."
"R-Right!" Izuku said while blushing as the music began to play in the background."Now just count with me,"
Izuku looked down to make sure he wasn't stepping on his toes before she cupped his chin and made him look her in the eyes, he looked into her onyx eyes, his own emerald reflecting in hers.
The two began to sway back and forth, she put his hands on her around her waist, and her own around his neck.
Mesmerized by the moment Izuku without thinking or years later he couldn't explain his actions. He closed his eyes and...
Momo's next thing she felt was Izuku's lips on hers, her eyes slightly widened as she felt his lips on hers, and all she could hear was the beating of her chest...
A few seconds passed and she closed her eyes and leaned into the kiss.
The were soon broken out of their moment as they heard gasps and "Oh, my!"
They looked at each other before their faces exploded into a blush, Izuku to much of an awkward dork to say anything just a goofy smile as he looked down, Momo was completely stunned her face slowly turning scarlet.
"D-Did he just kiss me?!" Momo asked in absolute disbelief her face burning
