To be a Hero

This is Home

*I ~t r i e d~* 

    Izuku and Haru finished cleaning their section of the beach before heading back to the van. It was getting late so they decided to wait for tomorrow to start moving Izuku's stuff.

"Heyy Izuku!"

"Hi Haru."

"You ready to get packing?"

"Yep, but are you entirely sure you want me to live with you?"

"Of course I do Izuku, I can't let a seven year old live in an abandoned van."

"O-okay, thanks, Haru."

"No problem, now let's get packing!"

"Yeah!"

    Izuku opened the van's back door and directed Haru to roll up his bed sheets while he unhooked his computer.

"We're going to have to buy you some new cloths, Izuku, these are waaaay to small."

"You don't have t-"

"Which is exactly why I will."

"...If you insist."

    After the two packed everything up, it didn't take very long seeing as Izuku didn't own that much, they brought the stuff and put it in the back of Haru's truck. Then they drove to Haru's house, which was more of a remodeled abandoned warehouse but it was an upgrade from the abandoned van Izuku used to live in and plus the warehouse had a training ground which was Izuku's favorite part of his new home.

  The warehouse consisted of a large training area on ground level and a balcony where the rooms were, along with a small kitchen and other necessities.

"Woahh." Izuku said, taking in the training room's glory. 

"I know right." Haru chuckled.

"I can really train here?!"

"Yep, and I'll help you train, but first let's get you settled in."

"Okay."

"This will be your room, we're going to shopping so get ready." Haru said as he turns around and walked back downstairs.

     Once Izuku changed into some clean-ish cloths he went down the stairs to find Haru waiting for him by the door.

"Come on kid, we're gonna get you some real cloths."

"..Okay."

    They drove to a nearby mall and picked out some fresh cloths for Izuku they also got some groceries for the week. 

"Thanks, Haru."

"Your welcome, kid, what do you want to pick up for dinner?"

"Oh.. I'll eat anything but katsudan is my favorite..."

"Katsudan it is than!"

   They drove to a near restaurant that served katsudan.

"Why are you helping me, Haru?"

"What do you mean? Why wouldn't I help you?"

"Well, I'm quirkless for starters and in this society that means I'm practically worthless."

"You are not worthless, and I've come to care about you in the months we've known each other in fact I wanted to ask you to live with me when we first met but I was afraid it was too soon."

"R-really?"

"Yep, don't bother with what the others think. I believe you can be a hero or whatever you want to be. Being quirkless changes none of that."

"T-thank you, Haru!" Izuku wiped the tears from his eyes and hugs Haru.

"No problem, kid."

     That night, Izuku fell asleep determined to start a new life, in a new home.
