I Am Here For You (IzuOcha)

Chapter 32: Izuku and Ochaco's Emotions

Ochaco paced around her bedroom.

Her? Shower with Izuku? She had dreamt of doing that for awhile but was this the right time for that? She didn't mean to bring that up she just happened to blurt that out. Is this just the universe telling her this is the right thing to do? How was this the right thing to do?!

She heard the ruffling of clothes coming from the bathroom. Izuku was seriously okay with this. He didn't question it at all. What did he actually want to talk about? What was she supposed to do here?

Ochaco rubbed her head vigorously with both her hands messing up her hair. This was too much of an emotional burden today. One for All, Gas Lighter, Izuku... She didn't care about Izuku's quirk, or how he got it, or even what it meant for them anymore. She just wanted them to be okay.

She looked over at the bathroom door. She heard the shower turn on. Maybe this would help. Both in an uncomfortable situation, bringing them down a peg from their anger. Ochaco took a deep breath. She was supposed to be following her heart right? That's what she told herself since that day on the beach. Nothing had changed since then. Ochaco took a deep breath and barged into the bathroom with more force than she intended.

"Ochaco? Is that you? Are you getting ready?" Izuku called out from the shower door. The bathroom and the shower room were two separate rooms, though small individually it was a fairly decent sized bathroom and washroom for one. Though for two it would definitely be a bit... Personal.

"Y-Y-Yea! Be in there in a s-s-second okay?" Ochaco called out nervously. Ochaco brought her shaky hands to the bottom of her shirt.

'For us, for us, for us....'

Of course she had wanted to do this for awhile now... Part of her couldn't help admit that this was a dream come true... If only it wasn't under these circumstances. She slowly lifted her shirt over her head. Alright... One article of clothing off.

She then brought her hands to her waist and stopped. Her hands were shaking even more now and her face was burning. Could she do this? This was way too embarrassing!

"I-Izuku... Maybe I'll just-" Suddenly saw the shadow of a toned body on the other side of the door.

"You not coming in?" Izuku asked, apparently now sitting on a stool to wash his hair.

"I'm absolutely coming in there." Ochaco said with a new found determination and goal.

Ochaco finished undressing at light speed and wrapped a towel around herself. She walked in front of the door and took a deep breath.

"For the vie- *Cough* To fix our relationship." She said quietly to herself before walking into the steamy washroom. The white steam floated peacefully around. The tub was full of hot water and Izuku had the shower off.

Izuku had been sitting on the stool scrubbing his hair. Ochaco stared at Izuku's back muscles, entranced by them, his arms slightly flexing from him raising them, the water shining off his skin...

"Ochaco?" Izuku asked starting to turn around. Ochaco snapped out her trance.

"DON'T!" She yelled, getting in close and crouching behind Izuku's back.

"S-Sorry. Not ready yet..." Ochaco said. She felt something shiver. She looked and saw she had placed her hands on his back.

"S-Sorry!"

"I-It's fine... I don't mind it... Really." Izuku said, trying to focus on washing his hair.

"H-Here... Let me..." Ochaco said. Standing and running her fingers through Izuku's soapy hair.
