I'm back from my Covid sickness, I hope you all enjoy this chapter! 

Izuku's pov

"Hizachan, where are we going?" I asked as my wheelchair got pushed down a street. Yeah, my legs really weren't fine-tuned enough to walk this distance according to Hizashi so Garchan was back at UA doing the calibrations "You'll see listener!" Hizachan sing songed "Ugh I swear, I hate surprises," I thought. Wait! Oh crap, I'm so used to not worrying about saying things! "Don't worry listener! You'll love this surprise!" Hizashi promised. We returned to silence as we turned down a familiar street. I knew where we were instantly, be it the looks or the distinct smell of... Urine.

I almost jumped out of my chair and ran when I saw the orphanage. This should be a bittersweet moment but there was nothing bitter about my old home. Sure, long nights crying when I first got here and when I gave up, weren't the greatest but they weren't bitter. The former introduced me to Ms Kea and the latter introduced me to the heroes of UA, Kacchan, Kamikun, Kirisama and Garchan. 

"We're here listener!" Hizashi announced as he pushed me up the ramp to the entrance "Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you Thank you!" I chirped as I knocked my secret code on the door. I know it's childish but with a knocker that big, I cant not make a secret code. Two short knocks, Two long knocks Two short knocks, Two short knocks and a long knock. "What's with the knock?" Hizachan asked as a frantic Ms Kea tried to open the door. She probably forgot her keys on the table again "It's morse code for 'Izu', I'm a nerd remember" I joked making Hizachan laugh

I accidentally changed POV here, wont be him for long... Present Mic Pov 

"IZUKU!" Ms Kea yelled as the door flung open "MS KEA!" Izuku yelled while leaning into her. The woman startled for a second before re-engulfing Izuku. I stood still for a good two minutes while the two hugged out their feelings, a few tears were shed along with light conversation "And you!" Ms Kea turned to me with an accusative finger point "Why didn't you tell me you were coming?! It's his birthday and he doesn't even get a gift from me!" She shouted "It's alright, I don't need presents" Izuku interfered "You got lucky punk! Just cause your a hero, doesn't mean I won't send you to the naughty corner!" She threatened. I wheeled Izuku into the orphanage as Ms Kea showed us to the sitting room. it was about 3 am only two and a half hours till the party.

Izuku's pov (Bad author! No more pov changes!)

Meeting with Ms Kea was so fun! She told me about what all the other kids were up to. While I didn't really interact with them but that doesn't mean I didn't care for them. I made a few toys for a few of them years ago during my toymaker phase (or when food was much more important). Six kids had gotten adopted since I had left, leaving Ms Kea with only 14 kids to take care of. We reminisced about the years I spent here, the years of being mute and having Ms Kea as my only confidant. "Alright Izuku, We should head back to UA" Hizachan suggested at around five-thirty. I nodded at him before smiling back up at Ms Kea "I'll come see you again before the end of summer break" I promised 

After half an hour or so, we arrived back at UA. The lights in the teachers dorms are out, weird. I guess everyone's gone to see their families, it's the Friday before summer break after all. Still, it's not like the teachers to miss game night. Eh, guess it's another lonely birthday for Izuku. Could be worse, I could get a third cra- bad diagnosis on my birthday. "Hey Hizachan, do you know if Garchan could come over tonight?" I asked, I think he's the only person in UA who knows my birthday minus Kacchan. "Sure, let's get to the dorms first listener," Hizashi said with a huge smile. Bigger than his normal one. 

I placed my hand on the bar of my wheel, stopping my chair. Hizashi hoofed as he walked into it "What's going on?" I asked while turning to him "What do you mean?" Hizashi became confused "Somethings going on, Ms Kea didn't know you were coming but you said she did, the dorm lights are off even though tonight is game night and you! are grinning like a maniac!" I accused "Stop overthinking everything Listener" Hizashi recommended while once again grabbing the handles of my wheelchair. I pouted as Hizashi brought me to the door of the dorm. I was wheeled inside towards the sitting room "Where are we going?" I asked. Hizashi shrugged and opened the door.

"SUPRISE!" about 15 voices yelled simultaneously as the lights came on. All the teachers, Garchan, the bakusquad, even Shinso were all there. I looked around the party room, a smile widening on my face. "Happy birthday Izuku!" Hizachan yelled "This is why you were acting so weird! You were distracting me!" I realised. I turned my chair and dragged Hizachan into a hug "Thank you so much!" I shouted. I kept hugging Hizashi as all my emotions flew out through tears. "Aw listener, don't thank me, It was Garcia who set it up" Hizashi replied. I let Hizashi's out of my hug, turned to Garchan and jumped out of my chair and into his arms

Garchan fell off balance and started laughing while I pinned him down "Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou!" I cried as I hugged him "Your heavy for two-thirds of a guy!" He replied while hugging me back. I laughed and hauled myself back onto my chair "Thank you, everyone!" I bowed "Deku! HOW THE HELL CAN YOU TALK?" Kacchan yelled. I turned towards him and tilted my head "You should know 'Suka, THROUGH THE MIRACLE OF SCIENCE!" Garchan explained "Happy birthday dumbass" He smirked while going to hand me a box "Bakugo! we discussed this! Presents after!" Maijima scolded "Discuss this!" Kacchan yelled while throwing a pillow at the excavator hero. 

Hizachan put on some music as everyone started mingling "I'm not gonna be here long, here's your present" Shinso said while handing me a box "You didn't have to" I  assured him "Show up to a birthday party without a gift? dear god no" He replied. I took the box and ripped the ribbon with my teeth. Out of the box, I pulled a cat-themed hoodie "I hope you like it" He smiled awkwardly while rubbing the back of his neck "I LOVE IT!" I yelled while fumbling to put it on. I swear I feel like a little kid again. "Yeah well I'll be on my way, see you soon" Shinso tried to walk out of the room, only to get blocked by Aizawa "Stay or I'm stopping your training" He offered. Shinso huffed and turned, walking back to the foray

I wheeled myself over to the Bakusquad and Garchan as they were arguing over something. "Ey there he is! Happy Birthday, man!" Kirishima said while giving me a side hug "What are they arguing about?" I asked while pointing at Kacchan and Garchan "They both got you gifts and they're debating whose is better" "DEKU MAKE THE CHOICE!" Kacchan yelled "How were you two friends? He's such a tanga" Garchan smirked. He loves insulting people in Filipino. Garchan handed me his present 

I opened the gift. It was a small hearing aid-like device. "What's this?" I asked while looking deeply at the item "Put it on" Garchan recommended. I placed the device on my ear "Okay, now click your heels twice" He smirked "ha ha very funny" I said sarcastically "Just click the button" He explained. I followed the instructions. Out of the hearing aid, a full-face helmet surrounded my face. A HUD connected itself to my eye and quickly scanned the surroundings. "Boomshakalaka baby, whaddya think?!" Garchan asked while jumping in excitement "Is this a hero helmet? It feels like a helmet that a hero would wear" I asked "mayhaps. Maybe if 'Suka needs a hand that helmet will protect your precious brain" Garchan explained. Kacchan went to slap Garchan but got blocked by Kirishima 

I clicked my ear again and the helmet pulled back into the earpiece. It was a cool gift, I can't say it's something I expected. "Your gift is crap compared to mine, take this Deku!" Kacchan yelled "Okay Kacchan, calm down a bit though, this is a party" I requested "Tch fine" He huffed. I opened up the box to see what looked like a photo collage. A collage of me and... Mom... Each and every photo was a memory. "Where did you get these?" I'm confident that if I used my real voice then I would've stuttered "My mom had a ton of them, she's a bit of a photo maniac" Kacchan commented. I silently dragged Kacchan into a hug, tears once again staining my shirt.

"Thank you Kacchan, thank you so much" I cried with the Kacchan patted my back "Told ya mine was better" Kacchan bragged. It is Kacchan, thank you. I love you.
