As Izuku made his way through the local mall he couldn't help but try and fail to fight the blush that was on his face. The reason for this was quit simple. I mean it's pretty hard not to stare at a 6'8 muscular man that didn't have a shirt on. And the looks that he was receiving from some of the ladies he passed definitely told him that they definitely liked what they saw.
Lucky for Izuku he was able to arrive at the store he was looking for quickly and he was able to buy some new shirts, shoes and pants. Although as he left the store he had to fight down another blush as he was "secretly" passed the cashiers phone number.
The only positive female interactions that he ever experienced was with either his mother and his friend Mei, and the latter was still his newest experience. So all this new attention from the female population was leaving him slightly uneasy as it was all new to him.
Shaking off those thoughts he decided to walk around for a bit before heading back home, after all he still needed to explain his new changes to his mother. So for now he just decided to clear his mind by walking around and taking in the nights cold air.
After a while of walking Izuku found himself at an intersection waiting for the light to turn green. As he waited he noticed that he wasn't alone, just a few feet ahead of him he saw a young lady that appeared to be his age, and had a blank look on her face as she also waited for the light to change color.
As he glanced at her, his eyes suddenly flashed red and he soon found himself once again looking at his foresight from a third persons perspective. In his world Izuku saw how the light turned green and soon the girl he was looking at began to make her way across. However he soon noticed a speeding car, that was being tailed by officers heading towards her. He saw as the car didn't attempt to slow down and before the girl was hit he was snapped back into the real world.
To his horror, as he came back to the regular world he noticed that the light had turned green and the girl had begun to make her way across. Before he could get the girl's attention he looked at the road and noticed the speeding car already heading towards their direction picking up speed as it was quickly approaching. Deciding to act Izuku through his bags on the ground and launched himself towards the girl who had stopped in fear as she noticed the speeding vehicle.
As her eyes widen while she looked at the approaching car she was unprepared for someone to slam into her and within a split second both of them had barely missed being hit. She soon found herself rolling on the ground and ending on top of something soft as both skidded to a stop.
When she regained herself she noticed that she was being held in a tight embrace. As she looked up at the face of the person who had saved her life she saw a rather handsome man smiling softly at her. "Just in time. Are you okay?" Hearing his question she just gave him a slight nod, but other than that she didn't make any attempt to move out of his grasp as she was still shocked at what had almost happened to her.
Letting out a sigh Izuku carefully stood up, making sure to be careful as to not hurt the shocked girl. Once he was finally on his feet he gently placed the girl on her feet, now noticing the huge height gape between the two of them.
"Sorry for pushing you like that, but it was the only way I could get you out of the way from that car" he said while nervously rubbing the back of his neck.
As the girl just kept looking at him with an expressionless face he began to worry that she was still in shock. However, before he could fuss over her safety once again he looked her directly in her eyes and what he saw left him mesmerized. Although her face showed no expression, the same couldn't be said about her eyes.
As he looked deeply into her cerulean orbs he saw what could only be described as an ocean of emotions. Everything from fear and anxiety to happiness and gratitude, he could see it all in her eyes. And the more he looked, the more he felt that he could understand her even if the two of them hadn't spoken to one another.
On the other hand the young lady herself was also lost in the eyes of her savior. She had never been one to express her emotions and had long since lost hope of finding someone that would be able to see her for her. But standing right in front of her was the person she had been looking for. She could see it in his eyes that he was able to see through her emotionless face and........see her.
But she was also caught off guard as she looked into his eyes. For she was able to see pain and hurt clearly hidden inside of him, but those feelings were being overshadowed by his determination and hope. And the longer she looked into his eyes, the more she found herself also feeling that she could understand him without even needing to say anything.
"HEY! Are you two okay!?" came the voice of a paramedic who had seen the two young adults barely miss being sent to the afterlife. Hearing the voice of the newcomer both of them snapped out of the trances they found themselves in and soon were subjected to a quick check up to make sure nothing was wrong.
After they were given the go ahead to proceed with their day, both young adults found themselves awkwardly standing next to each other both unsure of what to do or say. "So...ugh...hopefully they catch that person" said Izuku awkwardly trying to spark a conversation.
But as he looked at the young lady, she just held her same expressionless face as she looked at him, although somewhat awkwardly as she was straining her neck to be able to look at him in his eyes.
"Cough......Sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Izuku Midoriya" he said while stretching out his hand towards the girl. As she looked at the outstretched hand she slowly moved her own towards his until she gave him a light shake in acknowledgement. ".......Yui Kodai" said the girl in such an emotionless tone that it rivaled that of her emotionless face.
Giving his new companion a small smile Izuku began to gather the bags he had dropped and helped Yui pick up her items that had fallen when he had tackled her. "It was nice meeting you Kodai-san and I hope you have a safe evening" said Izuku as he began making his way back home. But as he walked he noticed that Yui hadn't moved from her spot and when he turned around he saw that she was indeed standing in the same spot just kept looking at him.
"Is something wrong Kodai-san?" he asked trying to see why the cute girl hadn't moved. However she didn't answer him so in attempt to see what was wrong Izuku walked back to where she was and was soon once again standing in front of her. Bending his knees he brought his face to her level and once again looked into the beautiful eyes that had captivated him before.
After staring for a few seconds Izuku let a smile come to his face. He soon stood back up and stood by the cute girls side.
Seeing him stand next to her the young beauty turned her head in his direction and slightly tilted her head as if asking what he was doing. Seeing her looking at him Izuku let out a small chuckle and responded to her unspoken question.
"You may not talk much Kodai-san, but I can see it in your eyes that you wish for me to stay with you a little longer" Hearing his answer the stoic girl widened her eyes in surprise as she couldn't believe that he was able to know what she wanted even when she hadn't said anything. However she wasn't able to stay shocked for long as a rather loud stomach rumbling was heard.
Chuckling and rubbing his head in embarrassment Izuku had to fight back the reddening of his cheeks as it was clear where the rumbling had came from. "Sorry about that I haven't had the chance to eat anything yet. Want to grab something to eat?"questioned Izuku as he attempted to kill two birds with one stone.
"Mhm" was the only response she gave as both adults made their way towards an open ramen stand.
When the two young adults sat themselves and ordered their food, they once again found themselves in silence as they waited. Wanting to get to know his companion a little more Izuku took the initiative to start up another conversation.
"So Kodai-san, if you don't mind me asking why are you out so late. I-I mean not that t-there's anything wrong with y-you being out or anything" said Izuku as he tired not to upset the stoic faced girl.
As she just looked at him with the same expressionless face he believed that she just wasn't going to answer him, but before he could attempt to do anything else he heard her voice.
"Preparing" came her calm and neutral voice that sent a shiver down his spine by how beautiful it sounded when he payed attention. "Oh? And what for? If you don't mind me asking"
"The U.A entrance exam" came her reply. At this Izuku let a grin spread across his face. "No way your going to take the exam, so am I" he said.
And with his response he could see the emotion of surprise flash in the cute girls eyes. But before they could continue with their little conversation their orders soon came and they both enjoyed their meals.
The two young adults spent some more time conversing back and forth slightly. But for the most part they spent it just relaxing with each other's presence. Eventually they both finished and decided that it would be best to start heading back to their respective homes as it was getting late into the night.
When Yui had attempted to pay for her meal, she was surprised that Izuku had paid for both hers and his meals. His reasoning being nothing more then he wanted to.
When they began making their way towards their homes Izuku had offered to walk her home to make her feel safer as it was already pretty late. Which she accepted as it was what she wanted as she was still a little shaken from what had happened.
And after walking for a while they eventually arrived outside of Yui's house. "Well looks like we're here. It was nice meeting you Kodai-san. I don't know if we'll meet each other again, but in case we don't, I wish you luck on the U.A exam"
However before Izuku could start making his way towards his home he was stopped when he felt Yui grab him by his arm. "Hm? Something wrong?" he asked in confusion.
"Do you have a phone?" came the question she asked. For a couple of seconds Izuku stood there stumped at what she had asked him until his brain started working again and he snapped out of his stupor.
"Ugh...yea here. Why do you ask?" He said as he pulled out his phone from his pocket. And before he realized it the cute girl he saved grabbed his phone and typed something. But before he could ask her what she was doing she turned the phones screen over so he could see that she had added her number to his phone under her first name.
Blushing at getting a cute girls number Izuku became a stuttering mess. After taking a few more minutes to call himself Izuku said goodbye to his new friend and made his way back home. Truly today was a day he would never forget. Not only did he receive the power his mentor had, but he had made a new friend.
Looking up at the night sky Izuku could only smile as he was already beginning to make his dream come true making friends one at a time. All that was left was for him to practice his new powers with the notes his mentor had left him. He still had a little over two months for that so he knew that he would be ready for the U.A exam, and nobody was going to stop him.
However before he could continue to stay lost in his thoughts, he realized that he had arrived outside the apartment complex where his mother and him lived. Making his way up the stairs Izuku navigated the small hallway until he reached the door he had known since he was a kid his new height forcing to have to slouch so he wouldn't hit his head on the ceiling. Taking a deep breath Izuku steeled his nerves and knocked on the door.
"Coming" came the voice of his his mother from inside. And soon he was looking at the confused face of Inko Midoriya. "Hey mom.....sorry I'm late" he said while rubbing the back of his head in nervousness.
"...I....Izuku?" Came the unsure response from his mother as she blinked in confusion. "Ahhhhh.....Yea.....I have a bit of explaining to do"
And as if a switch had clicked his mother quickly began to examine him all over. She was moving so fast that Izuku was getting whiplash by trying to keep his eyes on her. All the while she kept asking him questions so fast that anybody else wouldn't have been able to understand what she was saying, but since she was his mother he knew what she was asking.
"Mom lets go inside and I'll explain what I can, okay?" he said. Nodding at her son Inko made her way inside followed by her son who was now rubbing his head as he had hit the ceiling when he walked inside.
Soon both the mother and son were sitting on their couch and Izuku began his tale. He explained the reason he had been gone for long periods of time was because he had been training with his mentor to see if he would be worthy of him passing down his power to him.
He had also explained how today was the day his mentor had passed his power to him, and that what he had was not in fact a quirk but something else. This new power, being the reason as to his new appearance as it had changed his body to make it more adequate to handle its power.
After he was done his mother sat in silence as she took in everything her son had told her. Soon Izuku had to rush to get his emergency buckets, as his mother began to cry tears of joy that her baby boy now had a power that could keep him safe. It honestly surprised Izuku as he had expected that she wouldn't be happy with him, but he was happy that she was now more comfortable with his dream of becoming a hero.
After spending a few more moments talking with each other Izuku and his mother eventually settled for the night, one more comfortable than the other as Izuku had to sleep on a futon as he was now twice the size of his bed. He eventually feel to sleep, all the while preparing himself for the training he would be doing to prepare himself for the U.A exam.
