Deku was quiet as he drove Ochako home, his hand in hers as he cried silently. He wasn't sure if there was a single emotion he wasn't feeling. He was going to be a dad!

"Who all knew?" He huffed

"Deku I don't-"
"Do you think you haven't hidden enough from me?" He frowned as she began to cry, pulling his car over and huffing "I-I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to yell, just this is a lot, Mochi. I'm processing."

"Me too." she whimpered, "it's why I moved out."
Deku huffed "Well, if we're going to have a baby.. We should probably learn to do this stuff together, don't you think?"
Ochako frowned at that, "come on, Deku do you expect me to believe you're going to process this with me and not at work?"

Deku glared at her, "Fuck you! I don't remember hiding our baby from you!I am trying to be nice, but you really fucking hurt me and I-"
"You really hurt me! You said you would rather get a divorce than have a baby!"

"I didn't know you were already pregnant, if I had I would have-"

"Lied?"

"Yes! I would have lied! But I would have done my best to make sure you didn't know! I would have the nursery all decorated already I would have been such a good husband!"
"I didn't want you to lie." She whimpered, "I wanted to know how you really felt."

Deku sighed "I-If I could take back what I said I would, even before I knew you were already pregnant I regretted it."

"Why would I believe you?"

Deku sighed "I don't know, but it's true." he replied, "And it's only been three weeks.. I have months to get used to it.. I'm sure I'll come around. I know I'll love this baby, I already do. Before I went to see you.. I-I was thinking about it a lot, and I was begining to think I might want it."

Ochako nodded sadly "Jiro Toga and Tsu are the only ones I told." She murmured "Toga smelled it on me and Jiro heard me crying about it and I told Tsu because I wanted to vent." she whimpered "I don't doubt you'll love our baby, I just.. I just.." she huffed "I wanted this to be different. It's our first baby! It's not supposed to be like this."

Deku nodded sadly "It's not and I'm sorry. I really am. I never should have said the word divorce. I know that. I love you.. A-and now I'm going to start making this experience everything it is supposed to be for you! For us! Okay. So.. How are we going to tell everyone? Should.. We have a party? Invite everyone over to tell them?"

"that would be nice.." She murmured, smiling at him weakly

the sight of her smile made Deku cry again, he had missed it so much! He gently pressed a hand to her cheek. "I love you." he murmured

"I love you too." she sighed, "It would be nice to see everyone!"

Deku kissed her softly "It would!" he sighed, kissing her forehead gently

"I'm going to get us home, Ocha." he sighed, "I-I'm sorry I made you cry."
"I'm sorry too, Dekukun." She murmured "I love you."
Deku sighed "I love you too." he kissed her gently before driving home, hand in hand. He got out of the car and walked around to open the door for her. He smiled softly as he looked at the flowers he had bought for her

"When I bought those.. I thought uh.. they were good colors for a nursery.."

"Red white blue and yellow?" Ochako said with a soft laugh

"Huh.. I'm sorry at this point it's unconscious. I did also buy you mochi though! So I-"
"I love them." Ochako laughed "of course we can paint the nursery Allmight colors."
Deku beamed, "Thank you Ocha! Thank you so much!"
