Daddy's Good Little Girl--Aizawa x Reader

Part 14- Deku part 2

**This is a wholesome, plot-development chapter. If you're here for smut, that will come soon :)) ***

Instead of thinking about how to let down Deku gently, I decided to banish the thought from my head every time it arose, leaving me to my own devices when the moment of truth finally came.

I caught him between classes, in an animated conversation with Todoroki. I hated to pull him away from his friend, but the sooner I could tell him, the sooner the guilt from the previous day would dissipate.

I tapped his shoulder, distracting him mid-sentence. He glanced back, flashed me a grin, and nodded to Todoroki. Late-morning light was filtering through the windows as I led him into a nearby classroom, empty for the time being.

I turned to face him, figuring out on the spot what I was going to say. I was going to follow my gut instincts.

"Dek- Midoriya," I started, "You know I love you as a friend, and I don't ever want that to change, but I'm interested in... someone else." I saw understanding in his eyes, and then a bit of relief. His posture deflated slightly, but it didn't seem to be due to sadness in any way.

"I have to tell you something," he said hesitantly, seeming to choose his words carefully. I perked up, curious to know how he'd respond. "There is more to this situation than I told you about. The truth is something I haven't told anybody yet."

"Spill," I said firmly, giving him what I hoped was a reassuring expression, "you can talk to me." This seemed to put him at ease.

"Well, Y/N, the reason I asked you out was for... a cover-up," he cringed saying this, "because I'm in love with somebody else." I puzzled over this.

"Tell me more?"

"O-okay..." he still seemed unsure but I could tell he was getting more comfortable. "Well, Todoroki said it was okay to tell you, so I'll just say that he and I have feelings for eachother, and have been seeing each other for a while now. I know my mom would be fine with our... situation, maybe a little disappointed, but we're more concerned about how unpredictable his dad is. So, that was why we decided we would get girlfriends as a cover-up." He paused, taking a deep breath. "I promise I intended to tell you all of this, that was actually what the proposed 'date' was for."

I understood perfectly now. I was happy that Deku had found someone who fit his interests. I gave him a friendly slug on the shoulder, "you know you could have just told me that from the beginning? I would have said yes!" For a brief moment, I wondered if Aizawa would have let me say yes. If he knew the situation, of course, but was I able to tell him about the situation?

"Also," I began slowly, "I don't think that this is something you should keep a secret for a very long time. I've been with girls, and the first time telling my parents was something I dreaded for a long time. But I was relieved once it was over. I think not knowing is worse." Deku was staring at me as if I were a wise, seasoned sage, and I had to laugh. It caught him off-guard, snapping him out of his daze, and he giggled too.

"I don't know," he said finally, 'I really want my relationship with Roki to be public, I really do, but I'm really scared."

"I understand," I replied simply, pulling him into a hug. I had no other way to help him than offering my support. We stayed like that for a while, and then the bell rang. Pulling away, I smiled.

"Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you two."

"Thank you, y/n," Deku said as we walked out of the classrooms. "Well, I'd better..." he gestured sheepishly towards Todoroki, who had been waiting in the hallway for him. Todoroki smiled faintly and waved, and I returned the favor.

'Bye Deku," I said with a grin.

"Bye, Y/N, thanks again for everything!" I watched him jog over to match strides with Todoroki, already picking up wherever they had left their conversation. I should take my own advice. I really wanted to go public with Shota, but the consequences scared me, especially the consequences on his part. Maybe sometime we would be able to reveal our relationship to the public. Until that time, though, we would enjoy the peacefulness of a quiet relationship.
