My Hero Organization - Arc-1

Arc 1 - Chapter 3 | Coming Home From a Long Day at Work

"Ochako, I'm home!" announced Izuku as he entered the front door. Izuku sets his keys on the table in the mud room and takes off his shoes. Suddenly he catches an aroma coming from the kitchen. "Well, something smells good!"

"Welcome home Izu!" Ochako greeted, as he peeks around the threshold into the hallway. "Now that you're home, how was your day?" she asked, excited to finally talk to him. Izuku however, did not look so happy, knowing how his day ended.

"Well, it's going well now that I'm here with you. Let's put it that way" He said smiling and approaching her and giving her a kiss. Ochako was not satisfied with that answer. Something didn't seem right.

"Izuku?" she began with concern, "Is everything alright?"

"I don't know," he responds with honesty. The truth was, he really didn't know. Right now he is thinking the worst. What if someone else was making strides and disrupting peace, only after this many years.

"Come. Dinner is ready. Could we talk at the table?" She asks him hoping to get to the bottom of his feelings.

"I would like that," Izuku responds.

The couple dishes up their plates and heads into the dining room and began eating their meals. The first few moments were silent until Ochako broke the atmosphere.

"Izuku, what's bothering you?" She asks with genuine worry. "Does it have something to do with today's mission?"

"It has a lot to do with it," he confesses. "Director Tsukauchi noticed a pattern today. That some of our recent missions have included similar support gear. Super suits, almost like the one All Might used a few years ago." Ochako stopped her fork mid air before looking up at him in disbelief.

"Are you saying what I think you're saying?" she asked, beginning to tremble at the thought.

"There is a new species of villain. And we are afraid that there is a source to this." Izuku began.

"A new coordinator of destruction..." Ochako chimed in solemnly.

"We are holding a meeting tomorrow morning at the I.H.O." Izuku told her. "We will be briefed in greater detail then" He looked down at his plate of food, thinking about what this could become. Then suddenly he felt Ochako's hands grab his.

Reaching over the table, Ochako is looking into his eyes as he looks up. Her expression shows compassion and calm.

"Well, if the briefing is tomorrow, then we will worry about it tomorrow" She reassured him with a smile, hoping to relax his nerves for the night.

They finished their meals and began cleanup in the kitchen. The number one hero then left to take a shower and get ready for bed. Meanwhile, our number thirteenth hero got settled under the sheets and turned on the tv, waiting for her 'better half' to join her.

Izuku joins her shortly after and they lay in bed and talk for a while about Ochako's boring day in the office with no rescue missions, and gossiping about work drama.

"Oh, I have a bombshell to drop on you!" Izuku lights up in excitement.

"Oh no, what did Bakugo say this time?" Ochako jokes.

"It's actually Todoroki this time!" He responds. Ochako immediately sat up at the speed of light with peak interest.

"I'm listening," she explained with peak interest.

"Right after our briefing, he immediately tried leaving with barely any explanation. As soon as we asked him where he was going he suddenly got nervous." He explained in detail. "We finally got him to confess that he was going on a date!"

"Oh my god!" she let out. "I'm so happy for him! Who is the lucky girl!"

Izuku then explained that it was their high school friend, the creation hero. Ochako was happy for both of them. They had been good friends for years at this point. However, it's been far too long since Ochako had spoken to Yaoyorozu. She was one of the few students in their class that decided not to work at the I.H.O. and instead became a part time teacher at U.A. as well as working as a part time hero.

"I wonder why he was so nervous to tell you guys," Ochako asked.

"Probably because it was his first date, like ever" Her boyfriend responded jokingly.

"Well, he hasn't always been the best when it comes to any type of social skill or interaction." She pointed out. "I mean come on. He still can't figure out our sarcasm!"

"Hey, he is definitely getting a lot better!" Izuku defended.

"I'll never forget our first date, you know" the gravity hero moving the conversation into a different direction. "I was so incredibly nervous that I was going to mess things up and that you would never want to go on another date with me" she explained with a soft smile on her face.

"Same here" The one for all user replied. He looked over and locked eyes with her. "Or any good moment that came after. And ever will." He then grabbed onto her for a hug, pulling her in a leaning back to bring her chin up for a kiss.

"I love you Ochako"

"I love you too, Izuku"

A shorter chapter, but a good fluff before things get crazy.
