Hero's Villain or Villain's Hero (DekuBaku)

3

We were far too early for classes on the first day of school but that couldn't be helped. All Might and Mom "overheard" me telling Kacchan how much I worry about Mom being alone and how much she obviously liked All Might they should just get married and we could all be a family. It took everything Kacchan and I had not to burst out laughing during our act and it wasn't long before there was a quick wedding and my name was changed to match theirs. He had offered to drive us to school and who would turn that down? The fact that my house was actually closer to the school than his was new information not surprising by any means but still new. Then again he was still moving things into our apartment and cleaning out his old one. Kacchan and I found our secret place without cameras and sat down and relaxed. 

"Are you ready to do all of this?" Kacchan asked and I could feel his nervousness. It took a long time for Kacchan to be able to call them his friends and now he has to pretend to not even know them. With how hard it is for him to trust that people actually like him and not just his quirk that is kind of cruel. But he insisted that we had to do this so that they would actually be the same friends from before. If we change how we interact with them too much that would in turn change who they become. I understand what he is saying but that doesn't change how I feel about it. I don't want to pretend that I don't know who my friends are, but I'll still do it, for now anyway. We both know that we'll only last for so long because we are only human.

"Not really but thanks to All Might it won't be quite so hard," I blew out a slow stream of air while I tried not to work myself up again. All Might had taken us to test out where we stand on becoming heroes and surprise, surprise. We passed the Hero exam and earned our licenses with the condition that we had to "train" at UA until we were of an appropriate age. Our actual licenses and not the apprentice ones. Otherwise we were fully capable of responding in emergency events. All Might is still scratching his head on how we passed the 4 hour long written exam or how we knew how to fill out relevant paperwork but we both just shrugged it off, smiling sneakily.

Mom even asked why we needed to go to school at all if we already passed and I told her it was for a highschool diploma and to gain experience in safer working conditions. It was a fib considering what I know is going to happen in the future but on paper it sounded really good!

"Yeah, I didn't think he would actually take us up to take the test like that," Kacchan ran his fingers through his hair as he fidgeted. I looked at my watch and pointed at it for him. It's time for him to go and kick his feet up, the one part he does like. He has grown a twisted sense of respect for Iida but he still likes to tick him off. I think it's mostly because he likes to tick him off though.

"I love you," Kacchan whispered in case anyone was within earshot and I smiled at him.

"I love you too," I mouthed back and he gave me that smirk before he turned down the hallway and towards our classroom. I waited a few minutes before getting up and following him, giving him time to get settled before I arrived. Now I'm standing in front of our classroom door and I could hear some noise from here but not the specifics. Well time to get this show on the road I guess.

"It's highly disrespectful!" Iida was lecturing Kacchan who has his feet up on his desk and I couldn't stop the giggle from coming out of my mouth as I heard the all too familiar words.

"Oi Deku, come and get Glasses before I lose my fucking shit," Kacchan barked setting off a small explosion in his hands. I know that he is acting but I also know that Iida is probably on his last nerve as well.

"Oh! I know you, you're the boy that saved me during the exam!" Uraraka jumped up and both her and Iida walked over leaving Kacchan alone to breathe comfortably.

"Hello," I smiled shyly and we talked for a little bit before the bell rang and we all went to our seats. Most still conversing, everyone but Kacchan and I and we both sat up straighter when Aizawa Sensei came crawling in, still in his sleeping bag.
