Aizawa raises an eyebrow at his son who's waiting anxiously for him in the kitchen. When he asks, Izuku quickly shouts, "I don't want to miss Amajiki and Mirio-Chan!"
Which is the truth, but definitely not the full truth. He was supposed to meet Todoroki in ten minutes and his dad was taking his sweet time, "The first round doesn't start for two hours, we're fine," he reasons, pouring coffee into his Thermos.
Izuku glares at him behind his back, "I wanna talk to them before!"
Aizawa takes a big swig of coffee like a shot before pouring the rest of the pot to top it off, "What friends are you sitting with again?" He asks.
Izuku blushes, grateful his dad still hasn't turned around to look at him, "Kacchan, Kaminari, Kirishima, Todoroki, Momo, Jiro, Shinso, Uraraka, and Hagakure."
His dad listens to him list of his classmates as he takes a sip from his cup, "Shinso? From General Studies?"
Izuku nods, "Him and Denki went to middle school together."
Finally, after what seems like forever the two leave the apartment. Aizawa goes over the rules for the day again. Text them where he's sitting, check in with them at lunch, don't bother Amajiki, dont go to the concessions or bathroom alone, don't bother Mirio, and go to the announcers box immediately after the final match of the tournament.
When they arrive Shota hands the boy two fifty's, "Papa gave me money last night-"
"I know. Buy your classmates their food."
Izuku grins, "You're proud of them!"
Aizawa rolls his eyes, forcing the money into the boys hands, "Say it's from Papa if they ask." He grumbles leaving his son to approach his friends alone.
When he's sure his dad is out of sight, Izuku grabs onto Todorokis hand. Him, Momo, and Jiro find an almost empty section near the top, and Izuku texts the others where to meet them. They behind everyone when they get up to the spot, and no one notices the twos hands intertwined.
Shinso and Kaminari arrive last of the group, and they join Izuku and Midoriya in the top row. Izuku grins at Kaminari when he sees them holding hands, and puts a finger to his lips when he holds up his and Shoto's. Shinso introduces himself as Denki's boyfriend, causing the blonde to blush and everyone begins firing questions.
"How did you meet?!" Uraraka squeals.
"Who confessed first? I bet it was Denki!" Hagakure butts in.
"How long have you been together?" Kaminari asks.
The two answer the questions calmly. They got together after school ended, and Kaminari was the one who asked Shinso out. They explain having known each other for their entire lives because they spent a lot of time at the same park growing up, "That's so cute!"
"So manly, Denki!!"
The interrogation continues, and Izuku asks a few questions of his own but mainly just listens to the other two boys. Shoto coughs slightly and nudges him, "Do you want anything to drink?"
Izuku stands up, letting go of his... friends hand, "Who wants stuff from the concessions? My dads gave me a ton of money to spend on everyone today to congratulate us!"
Everyone awes in disbelief, though only Todoroki, Yaoyorozu, and Bakugo are aware of who his parents are. Most of them aren't hungry, so they leave with a note in Izuku's phone to grab one medium popcorn, two large popcorns, a package of peanut M&M's, and four waters.
The two wait in the long line, being so cramped Izuku is practically pushed onto the boys chest and they quietly talk. They come to the agreement that neither one of them are prepared to answer everyone's questions if they made their relationship public. They have a lot to figure out for themselves before they do that, "So..."
