Deku sighed as he held his wife in his arms in their bed, it had been so long since they were there together. He kissed her softly, nuzzling her cheek as he felt her fingers in his hair he could live this way forever. His lips met hers, sighing as he rubbed her back.

"I missed you." he sighed, "I missed you so much.. I-I never wanted to come home, because I wasn't coming home to you." His eyes were full of tears as he kissed her again and sighed, "and now I'll never have to come home to an empty house again!"

Ochako nodded her head sadly "I missed you too Dekukun.. I-I wasn't sure how I was going to raise a miniature Deku without crying everyday because I missed you so much."
Deku frowned at that, "well. I never ever would have let that happen." his hand rested on her belly with a sigh "I-I'm still a little upset you didn't tell me." He admitted

"I just.. I was scared."
"It's my kid. I have a right to know. were you really planning to hide the baby from me?"
"I hadn't decided.."

Deku sighed sadly, he knew about the baby now. That was all that mattered. He kissed her gently, getting dressed with a sigh.

"Are you hungry? I didn't eat at the party.."
"There are left overs." She murmured, "Or I can make you something."
Deku shook his head "I'll go heat up some left overs. Do you two want anything?"
Ochako blushed a little "No. I-or-we're good." Deku smiled at her before going down stairs he warmed up his food, ate it he didn't want the smell of his food to make her throw up. He went up to her after he finished, curling close to her and sighing.

"I love you." She sighed, kissing his forehead

"I love you too." he kissed her softly

Inko sighed as she sat in the passenger's side of Toshynori's car.
"I can't believe he just.. left her like that I thought I-"
"He was only going to Bakugo's house." Allmight sighed, "He was upset and he didn't want it to effect Uraraka. Stress is bad for babies. And she faces the brunt of the consequences of this situation they both contributed to.. I say it makes sense he sought comfort elsewhere."
"She's his wife. He can't just-"
"I'm not saying it wasn't wrong. Only that I can understand what he was thinking. And I told him what he did was wrong."
Inko nodded with a sigh "I hope they get better at communicating before that kid comes."
"Me too." Allmight sighed

"She's three months along. She has a bump. It's.. weird."

"I agree. Their situation is not ideal, but they do love each other, and they are very smart.. They'll be okay."

Inko sighed "I hope so." She frowned when she saw something on the side of the road, it looked like Nana Shimura, but she had been dead for decades.. Probably just a look alike. She noticed her husband tense beside her.

"Are you okay?"
Allmight didn't answer, staring out the window. "Do you see her too?" His voice was hoarse,

"I do, but-"
"stop the car."
Inko frowned "I don't-"
"Stop the car."

Inko frowned as she pulled over, looking over at where the woman had been and than at her husband, he had tears in his eyes.

"Tell me you saw her too."
"I did. What happened?"
"She just.. Vanished." Allmight said with a frown

"So.."
"I'll call Ingenium when we get back to the house." Allmight sighed, Bakugo was on a stakeout and Deku was in the middle of personal turmoil, so he thought Tenya would be most readily available. He sighed, getting home where he called Iida as soon as he got through the door.

"Allmight. Hello." Ingenium sounded a bit flustered

"Ingenium. Did I catch you a bad time?"
"Not at all. What's wrong?" Ingenium sighed, pulling a shirt on

"Inko and I saw Nana Shimura on the side of the road on the drive home from dinner. She was laying on the ground, before evaporating into thin air."

Iida nodded "That is strange, are you two alright?"

"We're fine, thank you, but once you and Yaoyorozu are finished with your evening.. I would appreciate it if you would look into if there have been any similar sightings around the city."
Ingenium nodded, "I seem to remember hearing about some, but I will look for verification."
"Thank you, Tenya."
"Thank you, Allmight. Should I call you with my results?"

"we'll rendezvous in the morning." Allmight sighed, "I'll look into it as well."

"Alright."
"Thank you again Tenya."
"yes sir." Iida replied, hanging up the phone, Momo frowned, having wrapped a blanket around herself and followed him down the stairs

"Was it Midoriya?"

"Allmight, actually."
Momo nodded "is everything alright?"
"Nothing urgent." Tenya replied, "but. He did have work for me. He told me I could conclude any plans I had with you before begining."

Momo nodded her head with a sigh, "well, we don't need to continue, if you would like to get a jump on-"
"No. No. My domestic duties are important as any other ones." 

Momo sighed, "If you're sure." she smiled at him softly, kissing his cheek.

Tenya huffed, unpausing their movie and holding Momo in his arms.

Tenya sighed, "how do you feel?"
"I'm fine.. I'm happy for the Midoriyas a-and our time will come."
"it will." Iida replied, kissing her cheek gently "I swear it. Deku sends his apologies. Though I told him they were unwarranted."

Momo nodded sadly "They are appreciated though. How is he?"
"Nervous, but his nerves are unfounded. He will do splendidly I'm sure."

Momo nodded "that is one lucky child. I can't think of anyone who loves as much as those two."

Tenya kissed her softly "Don't sell yourself short, Yaoyorozu."
Momo laughed, kissing him back, "I suppose you're right."

Tenya held her close, running his hands gently down her back as he pulled himself on top of her.
"Apologies. Do you mind if I obscure your view of the television?"
Momo laughed, pausing the movie and shaking her head.

Tenya sighed, putting on some briefs and pulling out his laptop to research what Allmight was referring to. He smiled softly at his wife and rubbed her side,

"If you would like, I can go to the kitchen so you can rest." Momo sighed, "no stay in here. We'll finish our movie." she kissed him softly

He smiled at her softly as he unpaused the movie and held his wife with one hand and his laptop with the other. Momo fell asleep at his side, he kissed her head before going to the kitchen. His findings were off-putting to say the least, grieving parents hearing their dead children's voices in the night, apparitions leading people into dangerous situations. Normally, he would chalk it up to cruel pranks or sheer delusion, but this volume in such a short time, was abnormal to say the least. He sighed, the dead roaming the earth?  If Deku was stressed out without that knowledge, he couldn't imagine how he would feel once it came to light. He needed to tell him, but he didn't want to.. He would tell Allmight and allow him to decide if Deku needed to know he supposed. He sighed, these cases seemed to have begun to pop up a few days ago, Tenya wondered what was going on, could just be a cruel trickster, but it could also be something much more sinister. Musutafu was home to the top twenty heroes in Japan, so it would make sense if someone was targeting them, they may need to begin to  evacuate civilians if things escalated any further. Tenya sighed, perhaps he was getting ahead of himself. He would talk to Allmight in the morning before he began catastrophizing. He got up, going to bed beside his wife, though he didn't get much rest.
