Izuku x Ochako fanfic "All I Need Is You..."

Chapter 2: A crush?

Why? Why can't I stop thinking about Deku? More specifically why can't I stop thinking about Deku shirtless? He did look incredible but that's besides the point.

The trip to the mall didn't last long they got the deodorant Deku had been looking for and that was it they went home. When they made it back to the dorm they went back to their rooms and ever since Ochako hasn't been able to get Deku out of her head. A problem she'd been struggling with for a while if she was being honest. Except she wasn't being honest she was in complete denial of it

I do not have a crush on Deku I do not have a crush on Deku I do not have a crush on Deku

"Oh you so do" chimed good and bad Ochako in unison.

"Yeah well shutup you're just voices in my head what would you know?"

"That Deku is hot as fu-"

"No no no no no enough out of you"

It wasn't just the fact that Deku was well built that attracted her to him. She'd had these feelings for a long time for Deku. It was everything about his personality that attracted her after all when they first met he looked like a scrawny little guy no taller than she was. It was only recently that he'd outgrown her a little in the height department. Still his unlimited kindness, his desire to work hard to be the best, his cute reactions when he's uncomfortable being so close to a girl (mainly her), that fluffy green hair, his intelligence and ability to analyse are all just some of the reasons she was falling for him. She admired him. She looked up to him. She had the biggest crush on him.

No I don't.

Even still what she didn't know is that Deku was in a similar situation. Unlike Uraraka he wasn't in denial he just hadn't realised his feelings for her yet but they were there clear as day.

I really enjoyed hanging out with Uraraka today even if it was brief. She's fun to be around although I get really nervous when she gets too close to me. I wonder why I enjoy her company so much? We are really close and I guess she's really pretty too. Wait a second...did I really just tell myself that?

"It's not like I have a crush on her or anything" Deku said aloud to himself in an attempt to reassure himself they were just friends but unfortunately his words had the complete opposite effect. He immediately started thinking about her and how happy he is when he sees her smile or hears her laugh or whenever he gets to spend time with her and talk to her.

No I don't have a crush I don't have a crush.

Ok maybe now he's in denial. The poor teens both lay there in bed unable to sleep in there absolute denial of their clear feelings for each other. Uraraka decided she needed a glass of milk and heads downstairs to the dorm kitchen.

It's 1am everyone should be in bed so hopefully I won't bump into anyone.

When she arrived downstairs she was glad to see nobody else was up. She grabs herself some milk and some cookies and decides to sit in the common room and watch TV for a little while.

"Oh hey Urar-"

"AGH!" Ochaco jumps at the sudden voice of the person stood behind the sofa looking down at her.

No why now you're the last person I wanted to see right now. This is so awkward.

"Hey Deku" she said reluctantly

"Sorry to scare you like that"

"It's ok although if you had made me spill my milk I would've been upset with you" she pouted. She began to take a swig of milk from her glass when Deku spoke without thinking first

"Yeah wouldn't want to waste any of Uraraka's milk now would we?" Deku joked causing Uraraka to almost choke on her milk and spit it out everywhere.

"DEKU!" she half whispered half shouted.

"I am so sorry I wasn't thinking it just slipped out and I haven't slept well lately I guess I was just tired" he tried to reason.

"It's ok just think about it more next time please? If you keep making jokes like that I'm worried you'll end up like Mineta that little perv" she jested getting a small giggle out of Deku.

"So you couldn't sleep well either? Mind if I join you?" He enquired

"By all means" she replied

"I'll just grab my own glass of milk if you don't mind sharing the cookies?"

"Yeah no problem as long as you don't eat them all"

"Oh I'll try not to but I might not be able to stop myself" Deku teased getting a small laugh out of her.

"So what's keeping you up so late Uraraka? Can't sleep? Or nightmares?" Deku asked

"Can't sleep. You?"

"Same here"

They both sat there in silence for a second watching the TV but sat pretty close to each other on the sofa not that either of them had noticed.

"Hey Deku do you wanna talk about it?"

"About what?"

"Whatever is on your mind that's stopping you from sleeping?" She asked concerned for her friend's mental well-being.

"No it's ok it's nothing too serious or anything. What about you Uraraka do you want to talk about what's stopping you from falling asleep?" Deku asked with the same concern

"Yes just not right now I'm not ready to talk about it yet. Maybe some other time"

"Well whenever you feel like it I'll be waiting to listen to you and help in any way I can" he offers

"Thanks Deku you're a good friend. Same goes for you by the way"

"I appreciate that and you're a good friend too Uraraka"

Suddenly the two of them felt very tired and sleepy it was pushing 2am after all. Neither of them moved or said anything they just sat next to each other drinking milk and eating cookies content with their current position. They continued to watch the TV causing the two of them to slowly dose off into a nice deep sleep...
