Chapter 1: When Everything Changed
The rain slapped against the concrete ground, as Izuku Midoriya walked to U.A. Ever since the Sports Festival... I feel so different. Izuku held his umbrella tightly as the wind charged through. Ever since my fight with Todoroki...
"Midoriya! You'll be late!"
Izuku turned in surprise, seeing a familiar head of red and white hair. Shoto... oh no, what do I say?! Izuku tried his best not to look like he was panicking in the inside. "Oh! Uh-Um, H-Hey Todoroki!" He stuttered. Todoroki walked beside Midoriya, "We only have five Minutes you know—"
"Five Minutes?! B-But I Just checked my watch and I thought we still had t-ten?!"
Was I really that distracted by my thoughts...?
"Hey Izuku, you okay?" Shoto asked, tapping his shoulder. Izuku nodded quickly, "Y-Yup! Lets get going!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When they arrived at U.A, they were the last ones inside. Izuku sat at his desk, burying his face into his sweater. Why was his feelings acting up now, of all times? He felt his face growing warm, when he felt someone tap his shoulder. He immediately sat up, and Uraraka giggled. "Wow Deku, you seem alert today!" Izuku blushed again, "Y-Yeah.. sorry." Uraraka tilted her head, "Izuku? Your face is really red... are you okay?" He felt his face redden more as he buried his face into his sweater. "Y-Yes! I'm f-fine! Just ran here really fast, is all." Uraraka nodded, and returned to her desk.
"Psst! Midoriya."
Oh no Oh no Oh nooooo! Izuku didn't raise his head up, he just mumbled a 'Yes?' Todoroki stood and walked over to his desk, kneeling beside him. "Izuku.." He called me Izuku! "Are you okay? I've noticed you've been acting weird since we got to school.." Izuku sat up and took a deep breath, "Yeah, I'm fine! I'll be right back, I need to use the restroom." He quickly stood up and headed over to the door, but almost bumped into Mr. Aizawa. "S-Sorry!" He said quickly, "I-I'm just going to the bathroom, is that ok?" He sighed, "Make it quick, Midoriya. We're starting now." Izuku nodded his head quickly and swiftly made his way to the men's bathroom. He quickly walked in and stood in front of the sink and mirror. Oh man, I do look really red!
He splashed his face with water and looked into the mirror some more. Why am I getting like this all of a sudden? Just because I saw.. him? Izuku whimpered helplessly, not knowing what to do. He knew he liked him.. but to society that wasn't close to being normal. How would everyone view him if they knew he liked Shoto.. knew that he wasn't straight? He squeezed his eyes shut, trying to concentrate on something else. More training with Gran Torino? That didn't stick for long until he got another image of Todoroki in his head. If this was bothering him this much... he knew he should probably say something...
But who could he tell? His mom? No, she would be too concerned to help him cope with this. He definitely didn't want to tell anyone else that came to mind, especially not Shoto. He didn't know who to trust at this point... he just knew that if he didn't get back to class now, that people would question what exactly is going on. He took some deep breathes, then headed back to Class 1-A.
He opened the door quietly, and Aizawa turned to him. "Thank you for joining us, Midoriya." Izuku blushed, hurrying to his seat. He sat and stared at the ground, waiting for Aizawa to start talking again. Aizawa cleared his throat, "As I was saying, tomorrow you'll be picking your hero names and submitting them. Just remember, these could be temporary, or they could be the name everyone calls you for the rest of your life. Choose wisely." Izuku thought on that. He already had an idea of what he wanted his hero name to be, Deku. "Class dismissed."
Everyone got up and headed for the cafeteria, while Izuku sat with his head down. He felt rest their hand on his shoulder, and he sat bolt right up. It was Shoto, but he looked concerned. "Midoriya... You don't seem okay..."
"I'm fine, Shoto! Don't worry!" Izuku tries to smile, but failed. Shoto didn't buy it, but he walked out with Izuku as they headed for the cafeteria.

"Iida, how is your brother?" Midoriya asked, and Iida smiled. "I'm sorry if we caused you uneeded concern—"
"N-No! Its not like that! I was just worried about you, is all!" Midoriya said quickly. Iida chuckled, "You needn't worry about me, Midoriya. I've been fine." A lunch tray clanked against the table as Izuku looked up to see Shoto sitting next to him. "Sh-Shoto! H-hi!" He said with a hint of surprise in his voice. A smile was hidden in the expression of the red and white haired boy. "Do you mind if I—?"
"Not at all!" Midoriya smiled, patting the seat next to him. Todoroki sat down beside him, and they talked the rest of the lunch together.
"I've never seen Todoroki so social before..." Iida said in slight amazement. Uraraka giggled, "I think its nice that the two of them are bonding more!" One look and you knew already, there might be something pretty special between these two.
———————————————
After school, Izuku went back to his locker to grab his stuff. Almost everyone had left the building already. Iida offered to walk home with him, but Izuku kindly turned him down. As he grabbed his notebooks, he felt someone tap his shoulder. He turned and saw Todoroki standing behind him. "T-Todoroki-kun!" He squeaked in surprise, blushing already. Shoto couldn't help but giggle, "You seem rather jumpy today, Midoriya. Or is it just me?" Izuku blushed more, scratching the back of his neck nervously, "S-Sorry! I-I'm just coping with something right now..."
Shoto tilted his head, "What?" Oh no! I didn't expect him to ask about it! "U-Umm, you know... life, hehe." He stuttered. Shoto stood poker-faced, then nodded. "Its fine if you're not comfortable telling me about it," Izuku blushed harder, "I'm s-sorry, Shoto!" He apologized quickly. Shoto looked into his eyes, and Izuku thought his face couldn't get any redder. "Sh-Shoto..." Izuku couldn't keep it in anymore. It was tearing him apart from the inside out. Todoroki tilted his head, "What?"
"Th-There's something I n-need to, t-tell you.."
