Deku's Bday

Heyo~ so the first part of this chapter takes place the day before Deku's B-day. Hope you enjoy!

*TW* Abuse, Yelling, and Panic Attacks

Shinso's POV
It's been about a week since Neito and I have gotten together. The Seeker had to leave the school early due to a sickness she got. Since she wasn't able to stay with us for a week, she will be coming back for a few weeks. Since Rosaline has left, I've noticed Izu's change in attitude, he happier but I can see a hint of fustration and fear? In his eyes when he's hanging around his friends. I'm honestly scared to tell him about my relationship, I don't know how he will react. Although, I need to also tell my dads so I might just do it in one go, to get it over with.


"Hitoshi! Come down stairs, breakfast is done" I heard dad yell
"Coming" I guess now is the time to tell them

I head downstairs to find Pa sitting at the table with Izu next to him, dad was coming over to plate the food. Eri was on the couch still

"Eri, foods done" Pa said
"Okay!" - Eri
"Um.. I have something to tell you guys after breakfast." I said nervously while going to take my seat
"Okay, when your done Izu and Eri you can finish getting ready." - Dad
"Um, actually Izu can stay" I said and Izu just nodded in agreement

About 10mins later, Aizawa, Present Mic, Izu have moved to sitting on the couch while Shinso is standing in front of them

"Okay... So... I visited the seeker last week and I found my... soul.. Mate." I said looking down
"That's great Son! Who's the lucky person?" I heard dad say which caused me to look up
"It's Monoma, from Class 1 – B."
"*Sigh* What did I tell you boys about dating loud blondes" I heard pa say
"Come on Shouta, Monoma is a good kid plus there soulmates so there's nothing we can do, after all you MARRIED a loud blonde" I heard dad say defending me, I turned to look at Izu who seemed shock and was just staring more like glaring at me, I got nervous.
"Izu, what do you think about your brother's relationship?" I heard dad ask shortly after, to which Izu jumped a bit then answered in a way I never thought he would
"I-I'm sorry" He said then got up and put on his shoes, grabbed his board and left
I stared at the door hoping he would walk right back in or something but he didn't and the painful silence was interupted by pa
"We support your relationship Hitoshi, just give Izuku some time, I'm sure he also supports you guys" Pa said getting up and putting his hand on my shoulder then walking away. I decided to finish getting ready, I'm surprised Dad and Pa let Izu walk out since we still have school later today.

Izu's POV
I had just left the house after my brother telling me him and Monoma are dating. I don't really know why I left, I was going to go back in but I just couldn't. I felt so mad at myself, I don't care if Shinso dates someone. I'm just so confused about them,... him, it, these damn strings,… just everything. I ended up getting lost in my thoughts and made it to the skate park faster than normal. I stayed at the park skating till about 10 am. I basically skipped part of school. I decided I should probably go back home, but I would be locked out so I guess I got to go to school. It took me about half an hour to make it to U.A. I slowly walked down the halls, nervous to see Shinso since I walked out on him. I made it to the door, and got more nervous since I was wearing more of a different outfit (outfit from above with the hat). I knock on the door and slowly open it.




I walk into the class to see everyone in their seats and staring at me.
"Midoriya" I heard Aizawa say. I stood there looking down, worried about what he was going to say
"*sigh* Where did you go?" I looked up to respond him only to look back down
"Just out... to cool down."
"Just out? For 4 hours? I highly doubt that." I was surprised at first especially since we are in front of the class but since he is my dad, he was probably more worried. I don't know why but telling him where I was just didn't feel right.
"Tch, it doesn't matter." I said kinda irritated that my dad is pushing this INFRONT of the class.
"Doesn't Matter?! You were out for 4 hours doing who knows what at who knows where!"
"Yeah well..."
"Yeah Well nothing! First you walk out on Shinso, then you don't come home for school, and you ditch half of school! Going out to cool down is okay but walking out on your brother is not. Do you know how much it hurt him, what implications it brings?" When I heard this something broke inside me, this argument wasn't about me, but about Hitoshi
"Yeah! Well what about me! What about how I felt when he told me that! What about all the implications I get from everything you guys do?" This was the first time I yelled at my dad, he was going to say something else but then Hitoshi stepped in
"Dad, it's fine." I heard Hitoshi say from his seat, which he was standing from. When I saw him, I also seen the shocked faces of my classmates. I didn't feel like being there, I wanted to walk away from everything and everyone, but my body felt heavy and my head started to pound really bad, I felt faint
"*Sigh* Fine, we will continue this conversation at home, for now just take your seat." I heard my dad say, but I could barely make it out. The next thing I know is everything going black.

Bakugou's POV
I was sitting in class talking with the Bakusquad, then Aizawa and Brain Fuc* walk in. Everyone got to their seats, I started to wonder where Deku was since he never misses class. Kiri was going to ask but Mr. Aizawa started class, nobody got the chance to ask until around 10:30 a.m. I heard a faint knock on the door, then I saw Deku dressed differently than normal. He walking into class with his head down, then I heard our teacher speak.

"Midoriya *sigh* Where did you go?" - Aizawa
"Just out... to cool down." - Deku
"Just out? For 4 hours? I highly doubt that." - Aizawa
"Tch, it doesn't matter." When Deku said this, I was shocked beyond belief since Deku is always so nice, I wouldn't think he would act this way, especially to his dad
"Doesn't Matter?! You were out for 4 hours doing who knows what at who knows where!"
"Yeah well..."
"Yeah Well nothing! First you walk out on Shinso, then you don't come home for school, and you ditch half of school! Going out to cool down is okay but walking out on your brother is not. Do you know how much it hurt him, what implications it brings?" Aizawa shouted which caused me and probably the rest of the class into confusion, we were all shocked by the argument going on infront of us, no one dared to interfear
"Yeah! Well what about me! What about how I felt when he told me that! What about all the implications I get from everything you guys do?"
"Dad, it's fine." I heard Brain Fuc* say from behind me at his seat
"*Sigh* Fine, we will continue this conversation at home, for now just take your seat."
After Aizawa said this I looked to Deku who seemed faint and out of it, then I saw his start to fall
"DEKU!" I yelled but all that was heard after was a loud thud of him hitting the floor
"Izuku, hey. Are you okay?" Aizawa said as he picked him up, but no response was returned. Aizawa took Deku to the Infirmary and Iida was left in charge

Deku's POV
"W-where am I?... Hello?!" I turned around but all I could see was black, it was like I was dreaming but I couldn't seem to wake up. I was so confused then I started to see... what looked to be memories but whose?

In the memory
"Where are you going now!?"
"Why do you care, it's not like it matters!"
"Of course it does! How do you think our kids feel about not having their dad around?"
"I am around, I taught Tenko to use his qurik and everything, I'm always supporting him unlike you!"
"I support him too, it's not my fault Izuku was born quirkless!!"
Then the scene moved to a room that was familiar to Izu
"*crying* Hic... s-stop... plz"
"Zuzu? Hey, it's okay. Here why don't we listen to some music?"
"T-tenko? Okay."
"T-tenko? Do mom and dad hate me?"
"No, of course not. They love us both equally, okay?"
"O-okay"
Then a loud bang was heard
"Get out! Take what's yours and leave!! I don't need you here anymore."
"What about my kids!"
"Our kids! And I'm keeping them!"
"M-mom, D-dad?"
"Tenko, hey bud. Why don't we go somewhere for tonight, okay?"
"W-what about Zuzu?"
"He's going to stay here with your mom."
"Okay, I'll be back Zuzu"
"N-no, plz don’t go. Ten-chan don’t leave me plz!!"
Then the memory disappeared

"What was that? Why don't I remember that? Mom and dad fought over Tenko, Dad didn't want me, just because I was quirkless. Heh, pathetic."

I sat there, I could feel tears fall down my cheeks but didn't bother to wipe them. I don't know how long I was there but then suddenly a loud noise was made, I looked up and saw a younger me, bruised up and bleeding, and my mother. She was drunk and had a broken beer bottle in one hand, and a whip in the other. I had a bunch of slash marks on my back and stomach. I don't remember my mom beating me, where was Tenko? He never came back did he?

"So much for being a brother. No wonder my mother left when I was attacked. Easy way to dump me, I guess. No wonder I hate love so much. Nobody ever loved me growing up. Heh, pathetic old me, couldn't even save myself from my mom."

I sat there, I wasn't crying no more. I waited, and waited, but nothing changed. Then it hit me. If I lost some memories due to the villain attack, why wasn't I told, did they not know? How much of my life don't I remember? I started to hyperventalate. My eye sight started to become blurry and soon I fell to the ground, I was holding my chest. Then I heard, a voice but I couldn't see anything, I felt my eyes closing.

"Iz..u?"
"Hey?"
Izu..u?"
"Izuku? Can you hear me?"
"H-hey, it's gonna be okay!"
I heard someone yelling, I could feel my eyes open. I was in the infirmary, someone was hugging me and rocking me, I started to catch my breath. I was shaking really bad, I tried to look around the room, I noticed what looked to be Kacchan and Kirishima. Then I heard the door open, and recovery girl, Aizawa, and Shinso walked in.
"W-what's going on?" I mustered out
As soon as I said something, I was pulled away from the person who was hugging me.
"Izuku, you're okay!" I heard the person say, I looked at them.
"D-denks? What h-happened?"
"You passed out, and just had a mild panic attack."
"Oh, okay. Thank you. But, what are all of you doing here?"
"Ah, well. Bakubro, kiribro, and I decided to visit you to see if you were awake and you weren't. Shin was here and you started to talk asking for help and saying stop then you were shaking real bad, Shin told us to stay here at watch over you while he ran to get Mr. Aizawa and recovery girl."
"I see, sorry for the scare. I said while resting my head on Kami's shoulder
"How do you feel Izu?" I heard my dad ask
"Fine, just have a headache, but that might be from the resurfacing memories."
"Resurfacing memories? Dad what's he talking about?" I heard Shin ask
"I lost some of my memories due to the villain incident in middle school, I guess having that fight with pa made them resurface so now I remember how my mom and dad were. Oh, and Shin. I'm sorry for walking out on you this morning, I was just confused and didn't know how to react. You all react to love and relationships so normally but to be honest I get so freaked out by it. I guess since I grew up without the love of my family, I failed to fully understand it." I said taking my head off Denk's should looking up to my dad and Shin.
"It's okay, Izu. I didn't mean to force you to accept me or understand it. I'm just glad your opening up to us more now" I heard Shin say giving me a small smile afterwards

Recovery girl made everyone leave soon after, she checked up on me. She said everything was fine and I could return to the dorms which I did only to be bombarded by questions and "are you okay". I told everyone I was fine and that I was just over exhausted. We ended up just talking and watching some movies. I was happy, but once we all went to our rooms for the day, I started to become nervous and worried. Tomorrow is my birthday and the Seeker is supposed to return as well.

The Next Day

I woke up, all sluggish. I wanted to stay locked up in my room but after what happened yesterday it probably was not a good idea.

I decided to get changed and head down stairs. I woke up a bit later than normal so mostly everyone was already in the classroom.

Once I arrived to the classroom, confetti bombs 🎊 went off.

"Happy birthday Midoriya/Deku/Izuku!" Everyone in the class shouted, I also noticed Monoma, Dad, and Eric where there.

"Oh, um thanks guys!" I say putting on my biggest smile. Don't get me wrong, I was happy but I'm 16 now, so that kinda dragged on me.

"Okay class, now we all wished Midoriya a happy birthday but class will start soon and Monoma needs to get back to his class" I heard pa say causing small groans and fine's to be heard, probably cause he killed the mood.

Everyone took their seats and class started. Dad took Eri and Monoma went to his class, everything was going great till about 10:00. That's when...

"Hey guys! I'm sorry about what happened the past few weeks but I'm glad to be back!" I heard a familiar voice say as they walked through the door

"Ms. Rosaline!" I heard some of my class mates yell

'Shit' I thought. The seekers back and it's ON MY BIRTHDAY!

"I also heard it was someone's birthday! Happy birthday Midoriya" I heard her say snapping me out of my thoughts

"Oh, thanks you Ms. Rosaline!"

"Would you like to see your string? You are of age" I heard her ask which left me frozen. I got lost in my thoughts.

Do I? Would this make me happy? Do I want soulmates? But I'm not in love? Or am I? I mean there's Kaminari? Maybe kacchan? But there together with Kiri, right?

"Yeah Midobro! You totally should" I then hear Kiri say from his seat, with a lot of yes's and that would be cool's

I started to get nervous

"I, um...

TO BE CONTINUED!!!

Hello guys! I'm so sorry for the long wait, I know I was going to do a double post some Mondays ago but things got complicated since I kinda scrapped my old script layout so I had to make a totally new one while also juggling my lack of motivation to do my school work. But I'm back and hopefully I can continue both of my series. This is my main story so most likely there will be more updates to this one but I would like to keep both update. I will be trashing my previous schedule. I'm not good with that stuff so Im just gonna try to post when I can, if I set a certain due date, I end up stressing myself out too much, I'm sorry. I hope you all can understand. Thanks for all your support, have a good morning, day, night, wherever you are!!💕

P.S. sorry not sorry for the cliffhanger 😅😁
