“Hey, Do You Want To Go On A Date?” Izuku Heard Himself Say. It Was Like Hearing His Voice Underwater.

“The tracker led to this location,” Momo said as she walked. Her heels click-clacking on the concrete, sweat dripping down her face. They had been walking for a while and the night was breathlessly humid, hiding their nervous sweat with regular perspiration. The alley that they stood in was narrow and trashy. Not much room for breathing space.

“So, this is their hideout...? I’d buy that!” Kirishima exclaimed.

“We can't be sure but... I've been checking and the villains haven't moved from here all day.” Momo looked back at them. She was just grateful for the glasses that hid her expression from them. She didn’t want anyone to see that she was terrified. Urararka didn’t have to hide anything. Her round face was set with determination. She wasn’t going to give up or stop until they had Midoriya back.

“Just because the villains are here doesn’t necessarily mean Midoriya is too. I need you all to realize that we’re standing here now based on very limited information.” Momo continued.

“None of us are suited to stealth missions like Jiro and Hagakure. So, I'm stopping this thing at the first hint of danger... because you’re my friends. And I won't hesitate to notify the authorities!” Iida added.

“Thank you, Iida. Just give me a minute to think... about what can actually do.” Bakugo said.

“We have to think like Midoriya to save Midoriya!” Uraraka chirped, “Bakugo, what would he do?”

"you see, young Midoriya, the thing is, you aren't suffering any side effect of one for all, or an uncommon sickness. It is an actually very common sickness."

"what? what is it?"

"It is called lovesickness. it's very common for teenage boys to have when faced with an attractive young lady like Uraraka." All Might said finally.

"Noooo" Midoriya groaned. He hid his face in his hands, wishing that this was just a joke. but he couldn't deny it anymore. Not after his friends all teasing him about it and now All Might was telling him.

“Do you think that Midoriya wouldn’t do this again for you?” Todoroki questioned Iida, ignoring Kirishima.

“That is beside the point!" Iida spluttered.

“I have no doubt that if I was the one kidnapped... That Deku would being leading the charge to save me.” Bakugo added, “Even if it’s only to prove that he’s better than me.”

“Nobody said that we’re gonna break any laws...” Kirishima stepped forward.

“You don’t seriously think that we’re planning to smash the door, guns blazing? Do you?” Todoroki asked challengingly. Iida bit his lip hard as he struggled to find something to say.

“we’re getting him back without a fight. It's gonna be a covert mission. That’s how were heroes in training can fight... on the right side of the law!”

“I am coming too.” Yaoyorozu added, “You might need my help.”

“Yeah! We have to save him. He would do it for us!” Uraraka added.

“There’s no swaying you...” Iida muttered under his breath, in a louder voice he added, “In that case... take me with you!”

After donning disguises, the group began to travel through the city, inching closer and closer to where the tracker was leading them. They were doing pretty good. Acting like adults, instead of teenagers. Only they weren't sure how they were supposed to act. It wasn’t like adults shuffled around, drinking coffee and crying about taxes. They also didn’t stop to smell the roses or anything else that carried a dubious scent. So, in the end, it wasn’t too hard to blend in.

That was why they were shocked and flinched when someone called out, “oh? It's U.A.!!”

Bakugo turned and saw his teachers up on the big screen. A voice announced that they were showing a segment of the “U.A. high school’s apology press conference”. As the teachers talked about the villains and many apologies had been made, some reporters asked things that seemed to put the hero in a bad light. That they were incompetent and foolish. The mood of the crowd was changing, and many people began to grumble and make comments about how awful the heroes had turned out to be.

Bakugo glanced at the others, sweat dripping down his face. He could see that they were all thinking the same thing.

Everyone who watched the news now knew that he had been quirkless for most of his life. Midoriya was embarrassed and didn’t want to see how his classmates reacted to that. It was a big shocker. it had been his deepest, darkest secret beside one for all. Bakugo had known but hadn't told anyone, and Midoriya owned him for that. (Well, now after saving him from being kidnapped, they were even. but still)

In his mind's eye, Midoriya could imagine all his friends being disgusted of or even worse, pitying him. He didn’t want them to leave him, but then he told himself that he didn’t care, and it didn’t matter. He knew that he was lying to himself. Midoryia just didn't want them to think of him any different.

“Now let's move on to the awards ceremony!”

Three boys stood on a special stage. Tokoyami stood above the number three, Todoroki above the number two, and Bakugo above the number one. All of them had dark looks on their faces. They had just gotten news of Iida having to leave due to a villain attacking his older brother. Their concern for their classmate was clear. Well at least Bakugo was worried, that might just be how the other two’s faces were made to look like. He was fighting back tears of sympathy for his friend, wishing that he could do something to help.

Bakugo nervously walked towards his classroom for the very first time. With any luck, Izuku wouldn’t be in his class, and they would never see each other again. It was a shame that he never had good luck. He peeked his head in cautiously and surveyed the room, cringing when he saw a familiar mop of green hair.

Izuku was sitting with his feet on top of his desk and was getting reprimanded by a stiff-looking boy with blue-ish hair and glasses.

“You are disrespecting school property,” the bespectacled boy said, chopping his arm in the air as if to make a point. Izuku was looking at him with a frown. Bakugo sighed. If he tried hard enough, then he could sneak to a seat before Izuku noticed his presence. he would get a few moments of peace until the teacher did roll call.

in the staff room, Cemtoss was sitting at the computer while All Might walked by.

“Oh! The first year’s pro-picks are coming in. There's one... who Midoriya picked.”

“Ooh!! Who is it?” All might leaned back and searched for his young ward’s name.

‘He would probably pick something like king of murder’ All Might thought. Then he finally spotted it and his jaw dropped.

“Why would he pick Deku?!?”

“I can't believe that we won,” Bakugo said as he looked at Iida and Uraraka.

“I can, we work well together. Poor Kirishima. He had two very uncooperative people on his team. It was no surprise we beat them.” Uraraka said.

“Yes, it was their lack of teamwork the caused them to fail. If they had worked together, then we would have undoubtedly lost.” Iida said.

“We should do something to celebrate.” Bakugo found himself suggesting. He almost clapped a hand over his mouth. He looked at the ground, not wanting to see their faces when they told him no. If he was lucky, they would be nice and try to think up reasons why they couldn’t. Uraraka and Iida made eye contact and they smiled at him. Unknown to anyone. Uraraka and Iida had made an agreement to help get Bakugo out of his shell.

“Yeah, that sounds like fun.” Uraraka said.

“We could go to the library to study!” Iida said. Bakugo and Uraraka stopped and looked at him weirdly.

“If we want to excel at the things we have been doing then we must study more!” Iida explained, chopping at the air.

“Okay then, let's go study,” Bakugo said.

This hadn't been the first time Marinette kissed Chat noir. As Ladybug, she had kissed him on serval occasions, mainly to save his sorry butt from the effects of one Akuma or another, but this was the first time she had done it as Marinette. Half of the time, and silly little Chat hadn't even remembered.
