Deku's True Power

Chapter 7: Getting Closer

Izuku pov

I'm laying in my bed trying to get my mind off of Uraraka and I hear a pop on my window, I ignore it at first but then hear it again and go over to see Uraraka in the window across from mine. I open the window and start to talk.

"Uraraka we're window neighbors too?" I ask in disbelief.

She giggles and nods.

"Yeah, pretty cool huh." She says smiling.

I slightly smile as I see her looking at me.

"So...what's up?" I ask trying to start a conversation.

"Well I wanted to say sorry because when I was over everything got kind of awkward between you and your mom and I think she got the wrong idea about us you know." She says with an awkward laugh.

I nod.

'I didn't expect her to like me anyways.' I think to myself.

"It's cool, just a series of unfortunate events that made us look like more than friends." I say laughing.

'If only you knew I wanted to be more than friends. I've never felt this way about a girl so it's weird for me but I know it's some sort of crush.' I think as she smells the cold fall air.

"The smell of fall is so nice, it's not to hot like summer or cold like winter, it's perfect." She says resting her chin on her arm.

"Yeah I agree, it's optimal weather for me." I say smiling at her still.

I mimic the way she's positioned in the window and she laughs.

"Huh?" I ask confused.

"You took the same position as I did in the window, it's just kinda cute it seems you copy me without thinking." She says.

I blush and laugh a bit.

"I guess you're so perfect I instinctively copy you." I say without thinking about how she could take it.

I meant how she fights and that I still auto copy her movements even when not fighting but it didn't come off like that.

She blushes harder then I've seen.

"Thanks...I appreciate that." She says scratching the back of her head.

"Yeah...no problem...anyways it's getting late I'm gonna go to bed." She says stretching.

"Alright we'll Goodnight Uraraka." I say waving.

"Night Izuku." She says before closing her window and walking away.

'She called me Izuku even when she didn't need to...' I think to myself with a small blush as I walk away and sit down on my bed.

'Should I call her Ochako....I don't know calling a girl her first name could cause people to think we are dating...I could just say that it's easier then Uraraka...ahhhhh damn it I'm going to sleep....' My conflicted thoughts make me not able to sleep for majority of the night.

The next morning

I walk outside and yawn, I slept for 3 hours last night because of my conflicting thoughts about Uraraka.

I see Uraraka walk up to me.

"Hey Izuku wanna walk to school together?" She asks me getting slightly to close.

"Uh...yeah Ochako let's go." I say starting to walk.

I blush realizing I called her by her first name and I turn to see her standing in the same spot also blushing.
