A New Beginning

Developed crush

Uraraka's P.o.v

I raced through town looking for Izuku, He had left so quickly I couldn't really thank him for everything, or ask about the many scars on his body. I huffed coming to a stop near the cemetery 'Might as well' I thought entering the creepy place, I passed the grave stones with flowers on them as a figure began to appear in the distance, it had begun to rain since I had entered there so I saw the wet boy laying near a stone with fresh flowers on it. I walked over to see him sound asleep, the rising and falling of his chest rhythmic, I sat in my knees next to him as I analyzed his face more, his freckles, his green soft hair, his soft looking lips. As I broke out of my thought I saw that I had gotten really close to him, really close to his face. I held my breath as I reared my head back but he opened his eyes and saw me, My heart practically stopped until he yawned standing up and taking off his jacket throwing it onto my head "You'll catch a cold like that" He said holding out his hand as I took it. He helped me up as we left the cemetery "W-who were you visiting" I asked trying not to pry "An old friend and my mother" I stopped and stared at him "That's terrible, What about your father" He shook his head with a grin on "Left before I was born" He chuckled at his own misfortune "That's horrible, are you alright about....You know" He looked at me with a strange look "Yeah, yeah, I'm fine, happened a long time ago so I've already cried over it" We kept walking as the rain hardened "Man it's pouring" He commented as we crossed a street and entering a neighborhood "Ow, ow, HAIL" I yelled as the pellets laid down into the streets like bullets "Hold your head low" He ordered as I obeyed. Everything around us seemed to stop as I opened my eyes, his hand was out and he wore a wide smile. I looked at the droplets of rain in the sphere around us and the icy balls of hail caught in his quirk. "That's so cool" I commented as we walked down the row of houses

"It took a lot of time and training for me to control it properly, But even from the beginning I was able to amazing things" We walked over to a house as he unlocked the door "Stay here tonight won't you, Just till the storm passes" My heart beat as he said that 'He's inviting me into his house' I nodded vigorously as we enter and I looked around the vast place "It's beautiful" He walked over to the counter and layer down his thing as I hung up his jacket "I'd just like to say thank you very much" He turned around and tilted his head "For what" He asked sitting on the couch "For saving me during the entrance exam" He started to chuckle "Oh you don't need to thank me" I watched as he scratched the back of his neck with a slight blush across his cheeks. My heart skipped a beat as I focused more on him "Uraraka?" I snapped back into reality as he called my name "Y-y-yeah" I stuttered feeling hot in my face "So...Do you want to watch a movie or something as we wait" I nodded "S-sure Deku" He walked over to a cabinet and started to shuffle through some stuff. I stood up and walked around looking at the pictures, I came across a picture that looked really old. It had a woman and a child in it, I looked at it until i felt a hand on my shoulder, And another hand come up to hold the picture "Yeah, its one of the only ones I have left" I blushed as he spoke closely to my ear "Its the last picture I took with my mother" My blush died, replaced by pity "I'm sorry for your loss" I placed the picture back and made my way back to the couch where deku was sitting, He scooted over so i could have some room "Ready?" I nodded my head "Okay" We watched the movie, It was nice and all but the only thing on my mind was how close I was to deku. 'Do I like him' I felt my heart begin to race as I scooted closer, He didn't seem to notice until I leaned my head on his shoulder. I laid there as the movie played and my heart slowed, I closed my eyes and felt deku move next to me.

I opened my eyes and sat up rubbing them. I wiped my mouth realized I must've fell asleep, Deku wasn't next to me, And there was a blanket on me. I got up and made my way to the door peeking through the window, It had stopped raining and the sun was beginning to rise, School would be starting soon. I went back to the couch and turned off the t.v as I did I heard something coming from a room "Deku" I called to no answer, I walked slowly to the noises as they got louder. Eventually I came to a door cracked open the sounds coming from the other side, I quietly opened it and saw what was making those noises. The room was normal and all but in the middle there was a huge punching bag, It had dents in it. I flinched as deku flew over and started to punch it, dodging fake attacks he kept hitting it in precise places, I was mesmerized at how good he was as he hoped around the room like it was nothing and hit the bag even harder. He vaulted it and kicked it from above and landed on his hands twisting his body doing a back flip to dodge another fake attack, I opened the door completely as he seemed to be cooling off. In a second he threw his head up and blasted toward the dummy completely impaling it with his arm, I watched as sand poured out of the hole now created "Tch, Went overboard again" He used his quirk to push the sand back in and tape the hole shut, He turned around and threw a towel over his neck as he drank from his water bottle "Deku are you..." I held my mouth as I saw the scares on his back, The twisted, Painful Looking scars. He noticed me and turned around with a smile "Oh hey, Sorry about not waking you up, Thought you could get some sleep" He chuckled a bit but stopped seeing my face "Don't worry, After the first few they hurt less" He walked past me as I felt him grab my hand "Come on, School starts soon" He pulled me over to the door as I got ready "Give me just a second" He ran upstairs and a few minutes later came back down fully dressed and smelling of conditioner "Alright lets go" He called as he dried his hair with the towel "Okay" I didn't want to forget about it but I had to, It wasn't nice to talk about the past, We walked down the street in silence. After we turned a corner I couldn't hold back anymore "How did you get t-those scars" I knew he might hate me for asking but I had too, He stopped as I turned around surprised by the look on his face "Are you sure" He asked with a grin, I slowly nodded "Well, About 6 years ago I was captured by some villains, They were trying to create something and though that I was a great subject, So everyday for the next month or so they would fight me trying to strengthen me up" I walked next to him listening closely "I would have died if it hadn't been for a girl, She was something...But eventually the villains got bored and decided to kill me, I was saved by all-might that day and sense then I've always wanted to become a hero" As he finished we were entering the campus grounds. "That's so horri-" He grabbed me and pulled me aside "Don't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret" He smiled that sunny smile as I nodded trying to wipe away my blush and slow my heart beat. "Let's get to class then" He held out his hand as I too it and we raced into the building, The way there I made a promise 'I won't let that happen to you ever again'.
