WARNING: MAJOR MANGA SPOILERS WILL BE TACKLED!!!
"Toru!!!" Mina Ashido shouted, as she was at the front of Toru Hagakure's room. She's quite in the good mood as their homeroom teacher, Shota Aizawa, allowed them to have a day off.
"Slow down, Mina!! I'm still dressing up!!!" Toru replied. Mina is her best friend, but the enthusiasm of the pink cutie is sometimes overwhelming. "I don't know how Kirishima can keep up with her?"
"Come on!! Everyone's ready, and you're the only one left!! Better speed it up, or I'll send Ojiro here!!!" Mina teased, as she normally does. She's quite the gossip girl, who loves to know her classmate's secrets. But she isn't the one who spill the beans. She's not gonna D'Angelo Russell her friends.
"I'll be there!! So don't worry about be and wait at the Common Area!!" Toru responded. She's almost done, and the only thing she needs is to bring her charm. But she frowned when she heard Mina's last sentence. "Not like that'll make me fluster."
Soon, Toru was done and went to the Common Area, where all of her classmates were waiting.
"Fucking Invisibitch!! What took you so long??" Katsuki Bakugo shouted. For outsiders, this looks like an insult, but for Class 1-A, it's just Katsuki things. They're already used to his foul mouth. Well, except for one...
"BAKUGO-KUN!! DON'T CALL HAGAKURE LIKE THAT!!!" Tenya Iida, Class 1-A's President, shouted as he chops his hands. "AS HEROES, WE SHOULDN'T INSULT OUR CLASSMATES!!"
"I don't know if I'll call you engine or megaphone, but I don't give a shit on what you say!!" Katsuki retorted, which made Tenya mad, and decides to lecture the blonde boy.
Meanwhile, Momo Yaoyorozu approached Toru. "Hagakure-san, I'm glad that you finally arrived. And you really look good. I hope you can teach me on how to find great clothes."
"Yaomomo, you can just create Hagakure's dress anyway." Kyoka Jiro chimes in. "But you do look good, Hagakure."
Toru was happy that some of her classmates liked her outfit. "Okay, this is good. Hopefully this ke—"
"You look good, Hagakure."
Suddenly, Toru's mood plummeted, as Mashirao Ojiro complimented her. He's the last person Toru wanted to see.
She didn't responded, in hopes of the boy leave. Sadly, it didn't work, as he was still standing. He's waiting for Toru to respond.
"What is his goal? Was he still not satisfied in humiliating me?? I wish I can punch him in the face!!" The invisible girl thought, as she refuse to respond.
Luckily, someone pulled her away from Mashirao.
"Hagakure-san, come with me!! I h-have to ask you something!!"
When Toru looked to see who said that, she was surprised to see Izuku Midoriya.
"Okay." Is all she could reply. She doesn't want to say anything, as Mashirao is at the vicinity. But she wonders why Izuku pulled her away?
When the two got enough distance, Izuku sigh in relief. "Thank God we got out of there."
Toru was shocked to hear that. "Does he know something?"
"I saw you're not comfortable with Ojiro-san. Whatever the reason is, I won't pry. I just want you to have fun since this is our off day." Izuku said, and then left Toru. But before she could ask him something, Mina approached her.
"Midori told me that you're looking for me. What do you want, my friend? Are you excited for this off day???" Mina said, as she was jumping for joy. She is really excited for this off day, as they'll go to Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall to hang out and buy things that they needed.
As her bubbly friend was jumping, Toru smiled as she remembered what Izuku did.
"Thank you Midori. You don't know how much you helped out there earlier. Hopefully, we can hang out."
---------------
Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall, or Wookiees, is a popular mall in Japan where you can buy different items that suits different body type and Quirks. A lot of UA students loves to visit this mall.
And so it's no brainer that Class 1-A chose to go here. And since it's huge, the class decided to split up so they can go to the store they want to visit.
Toru decided to go alone, as she wants to visit shops without someone by her side.
"Thank God Mina was so distracted to see the new Aliens merchandise that dropped. Knowing her, she'll join me in visiting shops." Toru thought, as she wanders to the mall.
She doesn't plan to buy anything, as she wants to just walk around, so she can forget something.
"I don't want to remember what Ojiro did to me. It was so painful, that I almost dropped out of school. I don't want to see him anymore, but I also want to be a hero. So, I have to accept the fact that I'll see his stupid face a lot." She thought, as she doesn't want to remember it again. She wanted to move on from it. But it's still painful to her.
She's so deep in her thoughts that she didn't notice Izuku tapping her shoulder.
"Hagakure-san, are you alright?" Izuku kept saying this to grab her attention. But it didn't work.
So he decided to nudge her shoulder, which worked as Toru was surprised to see Izuku.
"Why are you here Midori???" Is all she asked. She made sure that no one was following her. So it's a surprise to her to see Izuku.
"Well, I know it's not my business, but I really don't like you being sad. So, I want to help you in any way I can." Izuku replied. He wasn't used to this interaction, as he's invading someone's privacy. But he couldn't help himself to worry for Toru, as he can tell that something's bothering her.
The girl was just shocked to hear that from Izuku. She wasn't expecting someone to notice her being sad since she's invisible. But somehow, Izuku can tell.
Toru decided to tell him why she's sad. "I know Midori is good, so telling him won't be a bad thing."
"Midori, please follow me. I'll tell you the reason why." Toru said, as she started to walk. Izuku soon followed. She hoped that what she's doing right now is the right choice.
After 5 minutes, they found a bench where there's no people around. It's quite a miracle to find one considering Kiyashi Ward is quite popular.
The two then sat on the bench. Soon after, Toru started to talk and tell Izuku her reason.
"It's because of Ojiro."
Izuku was shocked to hear this. Mashirao is someone he views as a kind person due to his spirit during the Sports Festival. He's now curious to know what Mashirao did to Toru.
"Ojiro was kind to me. He's very considerate and is always looking after me. I developed a crush on him because of it, and wanted to confessed. But, I wasn't confident because I'm invisible. But I build up the courage to confess to him, and I did a week ago." Toru suddenly stopped, as tears started to fall.
Izuku saw this, and patted her back. He didn't like seeing her like this, and it's even worst because Mashirao is the reason why.
After a few seconds, Toru continued.
"Where was I? Oh, right!! The confession!! I confessed my feelings to him last week. But you know what he did? He did not only rejected me, but he did it in front of a crowd!!! He even said that he can't love me because he can't see my face!! He assumed that I might be ugly, so he only said we can only be friends!!! I don't mind him rejecting me, but to do it in front of a lot of people?? I just can't take it!! They all laugh at me!!! I just can't handle it!!!"
Izuku frowned at what he just heard. He never expected Mashirao to say those things. So, he promised to himself that he'll beat him up one day.
For now, he's focused on making Toru happy. And he knows what to do. He's quite nervous because he was never in a position to comfort someone. But, he'll do his best because he knows Toru isn't ugly.
"Hagakure-san, Ojiro-san is wrong!! You're not ugly!!!" Izuku shouted, which grabbed the girl's attention.
"Huh?" Toru couldn't believe at what Izuku just said. How can he say she's not ugly when he can't see her face?
But before she can ask him, Izuku continues.
"Your Quirk is Invisibility, but you also have the ability to refract light. I don't know if you can truly absorb light, I hypothesize that once you refract the light, there's a chance that someone can see the features of your body. I'm sorry if I might come out as a pervert, but I take pictures of you whenever you refract light. But don't worry, I only capture your face, and I was lucky to capture one." Izuku then grabbed his phone, and opened the gallery to find the photo.
Toru doesn't know what to do with this. On one hand, her classmate just admit to her that he's taking photos of her. But on the other, he's someone who has no ill intentions. So, she'll just wait and see.
After a few seconds, Izuku finally found the picture. "Here it is, Hagakure-san!!"
(w/o the tears)
"I know this is an invasion of privacy, so you can punish me. But I don't want to hear people calling you ugly because that's far from the truth." Izuku then held Toru's hand. He doesn't want Toru to believe that she's ugly because that's not true. "You are beautiful. And I can prove it to you, as with the photo, I made a sketch of your face."
Izuku then showed Toru the sketch he made that he saved in his gallery. Toru was so shocked to see her real face, and she couldn't help herself but to tear up.
"Is that really me?" Is all she asked. She could believe at the picture.
"Yes Hagakure-san. That's you!!" Izuku replied with a smile. "And like I said, you're beautiful."
Toru blushed. She wasn't expecting Izuku to say this. But she was happy. She's happy that someone isn't calling her ugly because they can't see her face.
She wanted to hug Izuku, but she realized that he did take photos of her. She thought of a punishment fitting of his crime. And once she thought of the punishment, she smirked.
"You know Midori, I appreciate you doing this. But I can't ignore that you did take photos of me. So, you need to be punish for that!!" Toru said, as Izuku started to get nervous. She has the right to punish her, so he's ready for it.
Toru smiled, as she knows that Izuku isn't the type of person who'll not escape from this. So, she's ready to tell him the punishment.
"So, your punishment will be...

You have to wear a Sailor Moon cosplay!!! I know a store that sells it, so come on!!!"
It took Izuku 5 seconds to digest what she said, and he just let out a shout of disbelief.
"What!!! But I did something wrong!! You can punch me or tell me I can't talk to you anymore!! Why just dressing up??" Izuku was confused, as he believed that he deserved a harsher punishment.
But Toru doesn't believe that. "You know Midori, I don't fault you for taking photos of me because you're a Quirk geek. And I can't blame you if you're smitten by my charms!!!"
Izuku blushes at Toru's comment. He wasn't expecting this, but he's happy that she's smiling now.
"And I can't let myself punch the guy that called me beautiful!! Maybe if you're a pervert, but you're not. You're kind and honest. So, the least I can do is to dress you up as my favorite character!!"
Izuku smiled, as the joy has returned to Toru. "I'm glad that you're finally happy. You're even more beautiful when you're smiling."
Toru blushes from his comments, but soon smirked as she realized that Izuku called him beautiful again.
"Aww, Izuku you're so sweet. Calling me beautiful again, huh? Do you have a crush on me??" Toru teased, and it was effective. Izuku's brain short circuited as he realized he called her beautiful multiple times.
Toru just giggled at the sight. But she's thankful for Izuku, as he made her day better.
"Let's save the short circuit thing for later!! Let's go buy you some Sailor Moon outfit!!" Toru shouted, as she grabbed Izuku's hand and pulled him. The boy just smiled and followed her.
As for Toru, she couldn't help herself but to smile like she hit the lottery. She held Izuku's hands tightly, as she blushes.
"Hehe, thank you Midori. You made me happy. I know this is like our first real interaction, but I'm making sure it won't be the last. I look forward to deepen our relationship. Who knows, maybe we'll get married and have cute kids!! But I'm getting ahead of myself!! For now, I'll cherish this moment when you saw what others can't."

A/N:
Heyyas!! A new oneshot is up!!!
Yeah, I had to do it since Toru's trending right now. And, I do plan to make a oneshot about her once her face is revealed.
I want to make it short and sweet. I planned to make it longer, but I decided this was enough. Just want the fluff.
And also, the next oneshot is something special, as it relates to my recent changes in this book. All I can say is that you'll gonna like who's the character. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Hope you enjoy and have a nice day.
