Chapter 31: Popular

It is now night time on the same day as the events of the burning building. Izuku has just been discharged from the hospital in the late night. As he pulled out his phone his eyes went wide. He had multiple notifications from his social media apps, messages, missed calls, news reports, and text messages.

He sighed and clicked on one he knew he should answer first.

Once the phone finished ringing he spoke, "Hey mom."

"IZUKU MIDORIYA! WHY IN THE LORDS NAME DID I HAVE TO TURN ON MY T.V. AT NOON AND SEE THAT YOU WERE TRAPPED IN A BURNING BUILDING! AND WHY DID IT TAKE YOU SO LONG TO ANSWER OUR CALLS! DO YOU KNOW HOW WORRIED WE WERE! I SWEAR TO ALL THAT IS HOLY YOUNG MAN!"

He chuckled, "Mom I promise I am fine. It's hard to explain but once I get back I promise I will explain. I swear I am fine."

She sighed, "You are so lucky. Just try and be safe?"

"I make no promises but I will try. Talk to you wait! You said we were worried! Who is we!?"

"U-Uh!"

"For the love of god please tell me Hisashi isn't there!"

"N-No! Hisashi is not here."

He took a breath, "Ok then who is?"

"U-Um. Promise not to f-freak out?"

"I refuse to make promises."

"I figured. Um Yagi was over here earlier."

The line went dead silent, "Is he still there?"

He heard noise in the back ground, "Young Midoriya! Are you ok!?"

"I am. You do realize we are having a talk when I get home right?"

"Yes. Oh! Um I am getting ready to be on my way to Ryukyu's agency. She texted me saying I needed to be there for something in the morning."

"Um ok then."

The line then went dead.

He then saw another missed call.

He clicked called and once the person answered he spoke, "Um hey Honey!"

"Honey! You go radio silent for almost ten hours! And you do that after you are on the news for being trapped in a burning building and coming out looking like shit!"

"Um I am alright?"

"I know your alright! But that isn't the point! You went radio silent when I was worried sick!"

"L-Look. I didn't mean to do that. But they kept me at the hospital longer than I thought and I didn't have good signal in there."

She took a breath, "Do you promise your ok?"

"Y-Yes?"

"Good. You and me are so having a conversation later about informing each other about this."

"W-Will do."

She breathed out, "I am sorry for sounding mad. But you had me worried sick! What would you have done if that was me?"

"Um probably break down a hospital wall?"

They both chuckled, "See! Just promise me you will do your best and keep me up to date on this."

"I will sweetie. Oh! How is training going?"

"Good! Gunhead was a bit surprised to see me but once I told him I needed to learn some combat whenever I am up close he understood. Uraraka has also been picking up on his lessons fairly quickly too."
