Melody of Love

Two Idiots in Love

The sun was setting on Shizuoka while Kyouka walked down the streets with a small limp to her step, still dressed in her school uniform.

The young girl had just gotten done with a hard day of training and let out a long groan, looking up at the orange sky. A nice summer breeze brushed past her face, making her feel calm and forget about the soreness around her body for a split second.

Then it came back and reminded her of her current goal. To meet up with Izuku at his place and hang out with him the entire day. That's the only thing that can make up for all that harsh training.

Kyouka had spent most of her morning working out in her house before getting a surprise call from school for training early in the afternoon.

She was very tempted to ignore the call and ditch, but she knew she would get in serious trouble with Aizawa if she did. There was also the hope of seeing Izuku there, but he wasn't. The only other classmates that were there were Sero, Tokoyami, Kirishima, Mina, and Momo. When she texted Izuku about it, he said he had a call to be at school an hour before she did with his own group.

She didn't bother asking about his group, having a small feeling that he was involved, and having that confirmed would only aggravate her. Right now, the only guy she wanted on her mind was her hero.

Momo did call her and the other girls to meet up at school at a certain time, but Kyouka skipped out on that meeting to go see Izuku right away.

She finally reached her destination, entering the apartment complex and soon making it to his door. She put on a smile and proceeded to knock on the door.

After a few moments of waiting, Inko opened the door, smiling at the girl. "Oh, Jirou. This is a surprise. You usually give a heads up before you visit."

Kyouka rubbed her arm, smiling back at the woman. "Sorry, I kind of decided to visit out of the blue after going through a tough day at school. I did text Izuku that I'd be coming over. Did he not tell you?"

Inko placed her hand on her cheek. "Ah, that makes more sense. You see, Izuku isn't home right now."

Kyouka tilted her head. "Oh, he isn't? Do you know how long he'll be gone? I could always wait inside if it's not a problem with you."

"No, um, Izuku left the country."

Kyouka's eyes slowly went wide, lifelessly staring at the woman. "What? Not in the country, you say? For...For how long?"

"Hmm, he didn't tell me himself, but that tall, blonde, lanky man who works at U.A informed me that it would be a couple of days." Inko explained. "Izuku and the man were in such a rush, so I didn't get a proper explanation of the reason he had to leave. But I trust my baby if he's going to be chaperoned by a member of U.A's staff."

"A couple of days...?" Kyouka counted from her mental calendar, and an alarm in her brain went off. "But that means he'll be there for his birthday!"

Inko sighed. "Yes, it's a shame, but at least we could celebrate it the day after. I almost wanted to make him stay, but he seemed so excited to go on this trip, so I didn't have it in me to tell him. But at least that gives me an extra day to bake a cake that'll top all the ones before. It can give you an extra day too to work on what we talked about."

"B-But I don't want to wait another day. It has to be on his birthday. I have to give his gift as well." Kyouka was starting to panic before hastily, yet gently, placing her hand on Inko's shoulders. "Do you know where they're going?!"

Inko's eyes shifted upwards to try to remember. "From what I can recall, it was a place called I-Island. I've heard about it on the news before, but all I know is that it's a moving island, and it's filled with scientists."
