Your not alone. (Toga x izuku)

2. Friend acquired/ice cream interrogation.

"Hmmm... Maybe- no.. On second thought maybe, eh..." "Oh for crying out sakes! Lady just pick a flavor your holding up the line!" Izu thought himself as an indecisive person, but toga, was literally inspecting each and EVERY aspect. And by the looks of it, it didn't seem like like the people were on their side.
Just pick a flavor before someone notices me, and before the line starts complaining- "Izu, what flavour do you think I should get?" Oh well that's just great, now this is pinned on him as to why they're wasting time. "And pick quickly cuz time is money, and money is how I get the bills done." He gulped. Ok. So now the angry Ice cream person is mad at him, "Why don't you go with your favorite, or the first one..?" "Good idea izu-kun!" I'll take the plum with cherry bits-" "-It's my favorite!"  Everybody groaned, and he can see why.. See her so called, 'Favorite flavour ' Was also the FIRST option she chose, before this whole interrogation of Ice cream. E.
"Ok toga, now let's go." "But izu, you didn't get an Ice cream yet" "I did while you were deciding which flavour to get." "Oh I didn't notice! :3" Ya no kidding- "Oi!"
Is it toga again? Wait- no, toga's right next to him, so..
"Ay deku! Over here ya useless coward!" "Who's this?" Inquired toga but she was just shoved away for one of kacchan's lackeys to get closer to him. "I think he's talking to you." "What makes you say that?" He replied sarcastically, "Well he said useless, and I presumed it was you-" Ah it was just an elaborate joke with toga and - "-because earlier on you muttered that under your breath so I assumed it was a nickname." Ah, so she actually listened.. That's nice.
"Yup, it sure is.. A nickname of what I Am.. !?! !-" He was knocked over by said cary-er of the nickname, and is about to be dumped with icecream, why him?

About. As in it hasn't happened yet, because as soon as the cup was released from the bully's grasp a quick flash and it was in himiko's hand. "Y'know Mr. Big tough guy/bully, that isn't really nice. Why do you even hate him? Hes very nice, and not to mention a GREAT person!~" She said it dreamily and boy was he oddly confused.
"Girl get out of here!" And as fast as he aimed for izus face toga caught his hand just as quickly, if not more so. "No that ain't very nice, a, 'Lady' asked you a question."

The shocked face he saw on the bully did not match the one a few seconds prior, he looked.. Star-struck? Surprised, angry? Ya he was definitely angry. But again before he could swing at toga he was kneed in the gut, then bashed near the neck causing him to fall forward to toga's feet. "Wha-?" That was the only thing he and the bully could say, because was this the nice girl a few seconds ago? She just hopped back making sure he didnt touch her with his fallen hand as if he were some kind of disease. Then she bent forward and said something that maybe she shouldn't have said because this had a pretty big impact on the rest of his, sorta- life.. "What would Bakugo say if he saw me on the ground from some worthless extra's-" Then everything froze, he thinks but the watch on his wrist says otherwise.
"Mhmm, you tell that, 'BAKA-go' that me and, 'deku' say that you and him are nothing but rude, aggressive incredibly dumb bird's.
He nodded rapidly and ska-doodled away. (Heh :> )
"So.. What's his deal?" As Toga lended him a hand he debated if he should tell her or not, because what if she just laughs? I mean she did kinda risk something for him and defended him so. . Why not? He's got nothing to lose at this point. "Well.. Maybe not right now, the sun's going down so, uh, my mom will worry!" She tilted her head as if she was thinking before she exclaimed, "Well I'll walk you home! On the way you can explain to me!" "B-but won't your parents worry? After all it is kinda dangerous I can walk you home if you'd like.. ?" Her posture shifted and a sheepish smile came up on her face.

"Nah, I think I'm good, you should worry about yourself. Now come on lead the way Mr, izu-kun!" "A-ah ok.." As he began to lead the way himiko skipped around him and he took the chance to think of how to phrase this, "w-well.. As you can tell I'm quirkless.." She hummed for him to continue, "and well.. It might sound stupid, but I've always wanted to be a hero, y'know? Saving people! And making sure everyone is safe! But uh, ya.."
Himiko's eyes lit up interested, was she also leaning towards that profession?
But their conversation came to a halt as they reached his apartment. "So, uh guess this is goodbye- "Here!" "Wha- !?" Really quickly she entered her number without him asking and he thinks switched her contact name to.
"I'll text you!" She smiled. So did he. "Question tho, with the whole hero thing, how did you-" "Well I thought about going to UA, but.. I don't really have a quirk, and everybody says I cant, but I really want to try! .." She starred at him, blankly. Did she have a look of disgust. ? Did he say something wrong? "Y'know I really wanted to be a hero too.. " "Izu is that you!?" " Uh, looks like that's your mother! I better go, y'know my parents and all, so bye!" Oh no.
what did he do!? Did she want to be a hero!? And the thought of him trying without a quirk and even trying while she has whatever her quirk is.. Did she take it the wrong way?! Did he just lose another friend? One of the only.. ? The thought saddened him. *Sigh* with a sigh he made his way up the stairs to the block that belonged to his mother and him, and used to, his dad.

He just really had to ruin his chances didn't he? "Oh Izu honey! I got so worried I thought something bad had happened to you!" She cupped his cheeks to make sure he was real, as if he'd disappear through her finger tips. Then hugged him, and quickly nudged him inside. "Your ok right? I saw that a classmate had escorted you home, you didn't get into trouble did you?!-" "No mom. I'm fine, don't worry she's was just making sure I got home safely." "Well that's nice of her, next time bring her in I'll offer her some soup when I have the time." He already ruined his chances, why worry his mother? After all he was never gonna see her again. "That's fine mom, I don't think she'll be going next time.." "... Ah, that's to bad, she seemed nice."
"Anyways ima go to my room, uh goodnight." Aren't you hungry I made sora-soup?" "Uh I'm good mom, for now." "Oh ok, if you get hungry there will be leftovers in the fridge, or.. I'll give it to you later!" "Thanks mom."  He yelled from up the stairs.
He looked at his phone and the newly added contact that made his phone no longer bear. When he recived a message: 'hiii, it's toga, or himi, you can call me both! Hope you like our contacts! :> )' He smiled. Her contact was "toga woooo-ga" he muttered to himself. He clicked the open message to see what contact she had named him, his was 'broccoli boi' he mentally chuckled at the nickname, everyone always said he looked like one or the other. The other being a tree, but eh. He was so worried he had done something wrong, guess he saw her face wrong, he might of been a bit over-reactive, oof.
toga woooo-ga: 'It was a last minute contact name, you can change it if you want, so who's your favorite hero!? :)) ?'
Broccoli boi: 'hmm.. Not sure maybe almight, or eraserhead, he's this super cool underground hero! Wby? (it translated to sweetheart lol)
And on he went rambling about cool hero's to toga, or one's he found interesting, back and forth, till the night, and his alarm told him he would be waking up in 6 hours. Must've been texting for a while. He said his good-nights to toga and drifted off to sleep. Only one thought, boy he got so worked up over nothing worrying, wonder what the new day will bring! Or today since it was already midnight, but oh well.
