- Izuku's birthday -

This occurs before time travel, before Y/N became the impassive warrior we know today. But rather the shy and mellow girl that could barely stand in front of a crowd, let alone her crush Izuku.

Which surprise! It was actually his birthday today.

"I- I don't know you guys, I don't think I have the courage to give it to him." You cry in the arms of Jirou as the rest of the girls gather around you, all plastered with smiles at how adorable yet how silly you sounded.

They knew your shyness and anxieties would interfere with your actions and feelings, but wouldn't dare let you give up or back down, especially after how hard you worked on your gift. Jirou grabbed a hold of your shoulders to look you directly into your quivering eyes, to which she blushed slightly at, but snapped out of her flustered state to boost your confidence.

"No more excuses or beading around the bush Y/N. You have worked too hard and suffered too much to just fall out now, just tell him how you feel and give him your present. That way you'll have no regrets by being completely honest with Midoriya and yourself, the party's over so he must be alone by now." Jirou reassures with a soft grin.

"You go girl, get the man of your dreams!" Mina yells to your dismay, you shush her in case someone were to overhear the conversation.

"But- but what if he dosent like it? What if he doesn't like... me?" You began to mutter over all the possibilities that could make this confession go wrong as well as all the scenarios that could occur. It was all buzzing in your head like a tornado as tears began to prick your eyes, you slumped your head in defeat.

"I... I can't!"

You hugged your present tightly, wanting to disappear on the spot. Before you looked down to see Uruaka's shoes, as your eyes slowly gazed towards her gentle and kind ones. Uruaka was your best and closest friend, she supported you and looked after you and always stood by your side. She was your Melissa while you were in Japan, you looked to her as an older sister in a way. You envied her extroverted nature and all around genuine personality, her emotions sounded like a chirpy and happy flute.

If anyone was going to encourage you, it was her.

"Y/N, you are one of the kindest and most beautiful girls I know. You're brave and strong, and you have the biggest heart. You look after everyone before yourself and protect your classmates whenever we're in danger, you heal us whenever we are hurt and fight with us when we need help."

"If he doesn't treat you the way you should be treated and doesn't give you the respect you deserve, then you dodged a bullet. Anyone would be so lucky to have you, and if he doesn't see that then you were too good for him in the first place."

You look at her with such endearment, since you could tell her words came from the truest part of her heart. She truly meant every word she spoke to you, as her flute sang a song of trust and protection for your happiness and feelings.

You were utterly speechless.

"So go get him! And be yourself without any regrets, and I'm pretty sure you'll be surprised." She smirked at the end of her sentence, which made you raise an eyebrow.

"What do you mean by that Ocha-"

"Well, we gotta run, so good luck. And be yourself!" She giggles as all of your girl friends run away before you could catch them, which made you even more suspicious.

The silence made your heart beat faster than it already was, the realization of what you were about to do settling in.

Ok ok ok, breathe Y/N breathe. You can't get a heart attack now, remember what Ochako and Jirou said. Be myself and leave no regrets, be myself and leave no regrets, be myself and leave no-
