[Izuku's POV]
As soon as I got home, the house was quiet. She was fast asleep I'd assume because her door was closed, so I went straight to my room to get some rest after traveling so much. When I had woken up, I woke up way later than I usually do. Luckily I had made sure to take work off just in case. It's 12:00 right now, I hear muffled music coming from another part of the house so I'm certain she's doing something obscure to entertain herself.

I regretfully get out of my comfortable bed and decide I'll roll out to see her in my pajamas; they consisted of some retro All Might sweatpants and a very worn white t-shirt that said "PJs". I hear her singing along to the songs that play, but more importantly, she's using the broom as a microphone. After the playlist seems to end, I give her a slow clap.

"Great show L/n, will I be getting a concert after every trip I come back from?"

She blushes from embarrassment and points an accusing finger at me abruptly-
How rude.

"MIDO! YOU'RE BACK!"
"Yes? I live here-"

She tackles me into a hug, kinda knocking the wind out of me for a second. I regain my composure and smile, hugging her back. Its nice to have her in my arms... it just feels right. I want to tease her, but honestly a comfortable silence with her in my arms is better. Without thinking, my stupid self kisses the top of her head. As soon as I realized my mistake, I'm distracted by her mumbling something into my chest.

"What? I can't tell what you're saying-"
"I said that I was bored without you here. I didn't realize how entertaining you were"
"Did you not do anything while i was gone?"
"Oh don't worry, I did plenty while you were gone-"

I don't even know where to begin telling him stuff. Maybe I'll start with the fun things, like my friends Kirishima and Baku...gou? Yeah, I remembered those right. I also desperately want to tell him all that All Might told me but,, I can't. All Might said not to, so the reason behind not telling him is extremely important. Plus, I don't want to ruin what Mido and I already have here. I love being here with him.

"Okokok, so where to start...
Uh,
I made new friends!"
"Yeah?" He leans in after I say that, his eyes almost seem to sparkle with a childlike curiosity.
"They're names are Kirishima and Bakugou; I met them at the cafe they day after you left. I overheard them having a loud conversation and it made me laugh, so shortly after I became friends with them. Also, that night I was walking home alone and Bakugou was out too, walking me home so I wasn't by myself. They were both really nice people"

He seems to freeze up. Why isn't he saying anything? Did I say something wrong? I twiddle my thumbs, being a little nervous just in case Mido might be upset. He seems to shake his head from a daze and gives me a small smile.

"Are you ok..?"
"Yeah! I'm fine L/n, I was just thinking..."
"About?"
"I didn't know they were in this part of town, that's all"
"Did you know them?"
"Yeah, I went to school with them both. But we haven't talked in forever."
"Oh! Okay!" I tell him with a smile. Maybe I should get the four of us to hang out, that might be fun.


[Izuku's POV]
Kirishima and Kacchan, of all people she had to meet it was those two. Dont get me wrong, I like Kirishima. I'm just a little stressed about the other one. We left on really bad terms... and I'm not really sure if I'll be able to ever forgive him. I sigh and run a hand through my hair as a way to hopefully ease my mind a bit. I look at L/n again.

"What else did you do while I was gone?"

I listen to her as she excitedly talks about everything she did. I'm glad she wasn't bored while I was gone. It makes me really happy she doesn't need me around to function... but I like having her around at the same time too. After a few minutes of her going, she slows down.
