A night of disaster

Chapter 3: Dreams.

Entranced- Fill someone with wonder and delight, holding their entire attention. No other word could describe their situation better.

A pair of  black Onyx eyes were more than enough to make him lost all notion of time and space, captivated by the darkness of those Irides.

 Captured by Two emeralds in the middle of the night, a hundred times brighter due to the moonlight. she was gone, totally lost on those precious stones. 

After a couple of seconds, Izuku took notice of the fact that he was staring at her classmate way too long, so he decided to direct his gaze abruptly at the concrete of the steps.  I'm so sorry, Yaoyorozu!! I-I-I didn't mean to!, he said nervously. This reaction caused Momo to snap back to reality. Oh no, Midoriya !, you don't have to apologize, it's fine, really!, She replied in a soft voice, extending her right arm, Indicating him to calm down. What the hell was that?... She said to herself, realizing the state of hypnosis she was in a few seconds back. 

  A few seconds of awkward silence passed.  and what are you doing here this late? are you alright?, Izuku asked in a concerned manner,  still being unable to make eye contact due to his  usual shyness and the tension of the situation. 

Ummm...well, I thought that someone was trying to leave the dorms without  permission and I planned on stopping them...  saying this reminded Momo  that there was still an important conversation she must have with someone who actually left the dorms without permission, that certain someone now in her presence. Speaking of such act, I need to have a conversation with you, right now. Momo spoke, a serious tone on her voice. Due to her intonation, Midoriya could tell she was angry, very angry. Oh...Me?!...right now?... In a matter of second, anxiety worked it's magic on the poor boy, causing an accelerated heart and discomfort on the chest area. I'm aware that it might not be convenient to have a conversation this late at night and in this place, but I just... can't wait. Looking directly at him, Momo took notice of Midoriya's reaction, the way  he trembles when nervous, how he unconsciously scratches the back of his head. This tendency of his was a mystery to Momo, She couldn't understand how someone who constantly and recklessly  puts his life in danger could be so uneasy during this type of normal interactions. However, she loved mysteries, and tonight was perfect to reveal this one. Momo began to walk toward the steps. In response, Midoriya put both hands together while resting them on his legs, still staring at the concrete. Momo sat next to him, just a few inches between them, placing both hands against the concrete, it was them, the moon, and The sight of the city lights at the distance. Their though process about this situation was totally dissimilar. In Izuku's mind, he was now in a court as the defendant and Momo was the judge, ready to punish him for his wrong actions. In Momo's mind, Izuku is now a book. One that she has been eager to read for a while now and one that she will make sure to read until the very last page.
Momo knew exactly what she needed to do, she had to prevent  Midoriya from acting  so recklessly ever again and she knew that scolding him was the best way to do it, however... she also wanted to know him better, get closer. A desire driven totally by curiosity or maybe something more.  and For the sake of that desire, she had to drop her serious personality. at least, just for that night.

Your quirk... it's pretty strange, is itn't?. She began with a soft tone, her gaze on the sky full of stars. I mean look at your body, so full of scars and wounds, it's clear that your quirk manifested just recently. It's common  for people with strong quirks to damage their body when using it at their limit, but your case it's totally different. The more Momo spoke, the more confused Izuku felt, he was sure that the whole reason of that conversation was his stupid decision to fight.  She was there to scold him for his actions, wasn't she?. Even though your quirk causes you so much pain and suffering, you always try your best, you don't give up. In times of danger, you  put yourself through so much pain in order to save others, and despite the fact that I find such actions extremely reckless and dangerous, I admire you for that. Images from the sport tournament passing through her head. but not all of us think the same way about you...specially Bakugou. you know,  it's quite weird. What do you mean?, Izuku asked nerviously, he wasn't sure where this conversation was going, but it didn't look good, not at all.  If you really think about it, it's pretty simple. she proceeded,  It's clear that he dislikes you a lot, he can't stand you. Sure, he isn't friendly with any of our classmate, but when it comes to you, it's more evident. You did mentioned that you guys knew each other way before U.A  and I totally doubt that you ever did something awful to him before you guys came to U.A, after all You didn't have your quirk back then and even if you did, you are not the kind of person to use your quirk to hurt someone. so, if it isn't something you did, it has to be something else. It isn't for your personality, You are very kind and timid, but so are others in our class, Koda is also very timid and kind,  so is Ochako, so is Jirou , so is Satou, but he doesn't treat them as bad as he treats you. so If it isn't something you did or the way you act. It's gotta be something else, and the only thing I can think of is your quirk.  There's something about your quirk that he truly hates. Izuku began to panic, little by little, Momo was decoding his most important secret, right in front of him. It isn't the fact that your quirk it's really strong, because it's also very unpractical and cause great damages to the user, not only that but others students also have really strong quirks that are in theory more practical, look at Todoroki's ice and fire or Tokoyami's dark shadow, yet you are the only one he's always after. so tell me Midoriya, what is it about your quirk that Bakugou hates so much?. Izuku was speechless, unable to process all the thoughts running through his mind that moment. For someone to pay extremely attention to these details and notice that there's more to what the eyes see. Hovewer, it wasn't a surprise that Momo was the one to put all the  pieces together, after all she was one of the smartest students of their class, if no the smartest. His state of panic was telling him to run, to escape that situation before any word comes out of his mouth. He was terrible at lying and to say the wrong thing would cause her to be more suspicious. There was no way out, he had to say something to answer the question and quick, good enough to not leave any more suspicions. You see... the thing is that I...  his shaky voice was barely heard, not sure of what to say or think. Activating his quirk to escape wasn't about idea after all. I'm truly sorry... Momo said, soft words that made Izuku stop his compulsive thoughts. I'm sorry to put you in this position, Midoriya. Izuku directed his gaze to girl next to him, with the moonlight allowing him to see the sad expression on her face. The reason why I needed to talk to you was that silly fight, I just couldn't believe you  guys would do something so foolish, especially you of all people!!!. Anger was starting to take a hold of her as she remembered all the comments she heard through the entire day. However,  there's something else... that was probably the thrid time during that converstaion that Momo's words made Izuku confused, and this time a little bit more concerned. Something wasn't right about Momo, and he had to know what. You see, most of my life I had been trying to meet my family's expectations.  I'm sure you are aware that My mother and father are extremely important to the hero world and I aim to the same. That's why at a young age I decided to put all my attention and effort to become a great hero. studying and practicing, that's all  I have been doing since middle school. No time for parties, hobbies or even friends. Being the a role model for my classmate and a great hero is all that I care about, well... or that's what I like to believe. Izuku kept quiet, listening closely every word coming out of her mouth. It was right after your fight with Todoroki, that everything began... seeing your body totally destroyed after that fight made me feel something that I can't explain. Probably I because I never seen someone suffer so much.  I'm aware  of the pain and difficulties heroes have to endure in order to save others, however your case is different... you are destroying your body completely and I HONESTLY CAN'T IT ANYMORE, and one day, everything could go wrong and I  don't want you to die  Midoriya, !!!. Her change of tone made Izuku extremely nervous, there was no doubt, she was furious. however, there was a detail that struck him the most, a tear making it's way down her right cheek. In that moment, Izuku could feel his own heart tearing apart, piece by piece. Sure, their friendship wasn't the best one in the class, but Izuku  truly admired Momo, the same way she did.  He took notice of her intelligence during class and hero training., proof of hours and hours of studying. The dedication she puts in combat training and her devotion to be the leader of the class. She was amazing, he knew it damn well. Many times, he found himself in the middle of Kaminari and mineta pervert conversations, in which they discuss about girls and their appearance. In those conversations,  he heard different comments about Momo, some he wish to forget, but others he managed to picture on his head. Images of her beautiful eyes, Long black hair, and her angelic smile.  she is just... Gorgeous, he said to himself. So, seeing her crying had a strong effect on him.  He still couldn't believe that his suffering had such an impact on her, but there was not time to think about it , he was well aware of his bad habit of overthinking and being anxious during this times of situations, however he was tired of being that way, that habit of his must go if he truly wanted to become a hero. He had to do something to comfort Momo, doesn't matter how awkward or embarrassing it might seemed. Don't just think, do it !!!, he said to himself.
