the copycat hero: Deku

Chapter 57

Ochako yawned. It was a calm morning, light peeking in from between her curtains as she slowly woke up. The whole class had been given the day off to rest before the Provisional License Exams the next day, and Ochako fully intended to take advantage of that. She cuddled closer to the cool body that was pressed against her for a moment, a slight tingle running up her arms as the damp skin rubbed against her bare skin. Tsuyu croaked gently as she pressed her face deeper into Ochako's chest, making the brunette giggle at the ticklish sensation.

Ochako's eyes snapped open, looking down at her friend in confusion for a moment, before her memories of the night before came flooding back. The conversation with all the girls. Tsuyu showing up at her door in the middle of the night. The kiss. Ochako felt her face burn as it turned bright red, fighting the instinct to shove Tsuyu off her and scramble back, the frog quirked girl looking too peaceful to disturb.

"Are you okay, kero?" the croaky voice came from between her breasts, Tsuyu slowly pulling back, blinking the sleep from her eyes as she smiled dozily at Ochako.

"S-sorry, Tsu, d-did I wake you?" the brunette squeaked.

"No," the other girl replied, "I've been awake a while. Your breasts are just really soft and comfy."

"I…you…they are?" Ochako spluttered, staring at Tsuyu in mild shock, "T-thank you?"

"Sorry," Tsuyu muttered as she slipped out of Ochako's arms, the brunette not realising she hadn't actually stopped cuddling the green-haired girl, "I'm a little weird in the mornings. More blunt than usual."

Ochako just nodded as she watched her friend stretch on her bed, extending her body out like a cat and letting out a pleasured groan. The way her shirt clung to her slightly damp skin in the soft morning light that filtered through Ochako's curtain made the brunette blush even harder, trying to look anywhere else.

"Also, sorry about last night," Tsuyu hummed, getting off the bed and moving across the room, Ochako finding herself suddenly missing the weight of her friend next to her, "I guess I came on pretty strong."

"Uhm…yeah," Ochako didn't know what to do but agree, "I…I guess you did."

The two fell silent, looking at each other in the dim light.

"If you don't…want anything out of this, I understand," Tsuyu said quietly, startling Ochako, "If you just want to stay friends, I understand. And if you don't…"

"NO!" Ochako startled both of them with her shout, the brunette blinking in surprise at the sudden fear that had risen in her chest at Tsuyu's vague suggestion, "No, I do still want to be your friend, Tsu. It's just…this is a lot."

"Yeah, I guess it is," the frog quirked girl said as she smiled weakly, "Sorry."

"Don't be," Ochako shook her head, getting off her bed and walking over to the other girl, "You're my friend, and I care about you. I don't know if I…care about you like that, but… but maybe we can…"

"Wait and see?" Tsuyu chuckled, leaning gently against Ochako as the brunette looked down into her deep black eyes.

Ochako blinked as she felt herself lean down, cool lips touching hers own once again, her arms acting on their own as they slipped around Tsuyu's waist, pulling their bodies closer. A look of surprise passed between them, before they pressed deeper into the kiss. It lasted longer than Ochako expected, though it felt like barely enough as they finally broke apart, the brunette panting heavily.

"Y-yeah," Ochako muttered, "Wait and see."

"Woah, headrush," the student muttered as Izuku sat back, sweat dripping down his face.
