Arc 1 Chapter 3: Continuous Training and Seeds of Romance

Izuku continued his training with cleaning the beach. He started to get a little bit tired from the stuff he was doing. Toshinori carried Izuku home as he was tired from the training. Inko looked at the sleeping boy and smiled and kissed the top of his head.

"Looks like he had it rough today," Inko said.

"Tell me about it," Toshinori said, "Reminds me of myself when I was younger."

Toshinori took Izuku to his room and tucked him in.

"Good night Izuku," Toshinori whispered.

In his sleep Izuku said something that would change Toshinori's life forever....

"Good night...... dad....."

Upon hearing this, Toshinori's eyes began to widen. Someone actually viewed him as a father. He started heading downstairs, the shock still on his face. Inko noticed this.

"Toshinori, is something wrong?" Inko asked.

"Young Midoriya... he... he called me dad... in his sleep." Toshinori said.

Nana chuckled at this.

"To be honest, Toshinori, you shouldn't be surprised by all of this," Nana said.

"What do you mean?" Toshinori asked.

"You've definitely become a father figure to the boy, so I'm not surprised. Besides, remember when you called me mom by accident?" Nana said.

Toshinori chuckled at that moment.

"Now the same thing is happening to you," Nana said, "And on top of that, you've been more supportive in his hero career unlike 'someone'."

"She's right Toshi," Inko said, "You managed to keep the fire in him going."

Toshinori was blown away by her smile. Nana took this as an opportunity to leave these two alone. She went upstairs. Toshinori looked back at Inko. It was now or never.

He obviously had feelings for Inko but he didn't tell her. So he decided to take that first step. Little did he know that Inko was planning the same.

"Inko/Toshi," they said, "Oh I'm sorry you go ahead. No please I insist."

"Ok, let's just say what's on our minds at the same time," Inko Said.

"Ok," Toshinori agreed, "One two three..."

"I like you!" They said.

After this the two of them blushed while looking at each other. Inko broke the ice.

"Really?" She asked.

Toshinori nodded.

"I've liked you for a while, since high school," Toshinori said, "I wanted to confess but then Hisashi swooped you from your feet and I never had the chance to say anything."

"Well he's out of my life," Inko said, "I honestly don't know what I saw in him, but ever since you came into Izuku's life, you've been like a father to him, encouraging him when others wouldn't. Now you're choosing him to be his successor. You're an ideal father for my baby boy."

"Inko, if you're not doing anything this weekend.... do you wanna-"

"Yes." Inko said, immediately.

"But you didn't hear what I was gonna-"

He was interrupted by a pair of lips on his. He melted into the kiss. Nana observed this.

"About damn time," she said.
