This time I will protect them I won't be a coward

"Oh Midoriya-kun and Stalker-san" says Denki in a monotone voice.

All Might noticed how Midoriya twiddled with his fingers nervously and how the atmosphere became odd between the two boys.

So All Might speaks to the fragile boy, "Are you applying for the Hero Work Studies Shounen".

"Yes I am sir" says Denki and makes sure to emphasize the word 'yes' to show that he is serious to take on The Hero Work Studies at the place he was suggested to do by Recovery girl. He was ready to take on the challenge even if he was on the verge of dying.

All Might nods his head in a thoughtful manner and says quietly, "I hope it will be helpful for you Shounen".

Denki's golden eyes then move to an excited Togata who was staring at him with sparkles in his eyes and Denki knew why he was staring at him with so much intense.

'He wants me to join Sir Nighteye's agency. But sadly that is not going to happen' thinks Denki grimly.

"Well see ya Stalker sensei. I need to get this form stamped by the principal-" says Denki enthusiastically before his eyes fall on the crestfallen face of Izuku Midoriya. He looked like a side kicked puppy at this point.

'Aigoo. Now my another problem is to cheer up the protagonist'.

Before Denki walks away from there, he softly says, "See you in class Midoriya-kun".

Midoriya look up with a shock face at Denki before the fragile boy walks away from there while humming the same lullaby.

After Denki was out of  earshot, Togata Mirio decides to break the silence and asks, "Sir, for whom is cuti- uh I mean cough* cough* Kaminari-kun doing internship?".

Izuku narrows his emerald eyes darkly,
'Was he tripping or did he hear Togata senpai just call his  gorgeous nightmare CUTIE. He might add Togata senpai's name to the list of perverts'.

"Well he is going  to do the  internship at a trauma centre, it's located in the same area where Sir Nighteye's agency is" says All Might.

"What!" Exclaims a shock Togata.

This makes Izuku stare at All Might in disbelief.

'They want him to use his healing quirk!? When the user itself is so frail and weak! Oh no I hope nothing worse happens to Kaminari-kun during his internship'.

At the principal office,

"ACHOO!"  Sneezes Denki loudly.

"Excuse me Princi- I mean Nez" says a flustered Denki.

"Better start wearing layer clothing as Autumn season is just around the corner Denki-kun" says the rodent who was stamping his Hero Work Studies form and handing it back to Denki.

Denki stares at the wax glittery seal of UA and catches a whiff of something sweet and the warm aroma of coca smell filling the office room.

Denki places the paper to the side and stares at the warm mug filled to the brim with hot chocolate and big mini marshmallows.

Denki quizzically asks the the white fluffy mouse, "No tea Nez?".

The white fluffy mouse hums and says softly, "Everyone deserves a little treat once in a while" .

Denki sips on the yummy goodness and listens to a happy Principal Nezu's experience of teaching his first batch of hero course students during his years as a teacher at UA.

Denki could not wait for tomorrow to come.

...

That night, Izuku was buzzing in excitement. He was finally going to meet All Might's former sidekick - Sir Nighteye.

He was curious to know how did the man handled every situation with a stoic demeanor and his quirk! He needs to write about it to his quirk  analysis book.

Izuku quickly gets up from his bed checks in his bright yellow bag. If he kept his book or not  and  felt relieved that his book was inside that's when his phone buzzes.

'Who could it be?' he wonders and checks it. the message read

Hey, stalker jr.

Here is a cheat code for ya.

Don't crack jokes with Sir Nighteye he will feel more insulted and dislike you more and please don't make that horrendous All Might's face expression.

You won't be getting any brownie points for it. Just do as he says and you will get  accepted as an intern regardless of what you do. He will take you in. Good luck for tomorrow! not that you need it but as a friend I needed to write that in my message.

Denki

PS- don't ask me how I know these things. If you want to know then well it is this thing called  common sense and please please during your internship use your brain properly. Idiot deku! :P

Izuku smiles at his friend's message.

He felt kind of relieved that Kaminari was not ghosting him entirely and quickly sends a thank you and goes to sleep with a smile on his face.
