My Hero Academia (One-Shots!)

Izuku Midoriya - Friends

In this one-shot, you are a girl with a powerful quirk, telekinesis. You have known Katsuki and Izuku all your life, and have been friends with Izuku since the beginning. You always encourage Izuku to become a hero despite what others say.

You are now all in UA, and you know about All Might's secret.

"Hey, Izuku! Wait up!" I shouted as I ran towards Izuku, Ochaco, and Iida. 

"Oh, hi, (y/n)!" the three replied with wide smiles. I love this friend group, I never could have hoped for anything better. Honestly, I have had the time of my life here at UA so far, even though it's only been a couple months. It could be down to the course itself, but it's more likely to be down to the people in my class. The friends I've made here mean so much to me, and it makes me even happier than Izuku was able to get in, thanks to All Might. I've always felt slightly bad for using my quirk around him, because I know that it was all he ever wanted. It was always kind of like rubbing salt in a wound. I didn't want to pity him - so I believed in him, and told him he could be a hero even if he was quirkless. I guess everything paid off, as I think that all his hard work studying is what is going to make Izuku stand out, even more so than his new powers All Might gave him.

We begin walking home together after a long day of work, and we laugh about all the times each of us failed when trying to come up with new moves today. I'm pretty sure I hit myself in the face multiple times. Pretty embarrassing if you ask me, especially in front of all my friends, hehe.

"Hey, (y/n), have you told Izuku how you feel?" Ochaco asks me quietly, also out of nowhere, might I add.

I got flustered,a blush creeping across my face, and stuttered, "wHAt?! Sorry, what did you say?" She giggled, and replied, "oh don't be silly, did you really think that you had to tell me for me to find out? It's written all over your face every time you speak to him!"

Oh God.... Was it really that obvious?.... "Be quiet! okay.... listen, I've liked him for a really long time now, I don't want to ruin anything. Besides, I'm pretty sure he doesn't like me in that way." If I was being really honest, I would have thought he had a crush on her...

"(Y/N)! Are you kidding??? I-" I was listening to her speak when someone interrupted.

"H-hey, (y/n), could we speak in private for a moment?" He had the most uncomfortable look on his face and it looked as if he was about to burst.

"uh-yeah, of course," I walked over to him on the other side of the footpath, "what's up?"

"Do you think I'd be able to defeat villains in the future if I don't use my new powers as much as All Might?" The question was a lot more deep and personal than I had anticipated, so I didn't reply right away, my jaw kind of just hung, and I stared at him. "B-Because, despite as much as I would like, I'm worried my body just wasn't built for this power. Sure, I've been able to pull it off once or twice, but I don't think I can afford to risk that when I'm not in school anymore-"

"Izuku"

"Y-yes?!" He finally looked at me instead of the ground.

"Do you remember how I would always encourage you when we were younger to become a hero? And tell you how your hard work will outweigh any quirk?"

His eyes seemed to brighten, "yeah, I do."

"Well, I think, that when it comes down to it, your quirk won't be what is defeating those villains. It's your brains." I looked down at my feet as we walked. "Besides, knowing you, you'll find a way to get past this. I know you'll find a way to make this power your own. All Might gave it to you for a reason, Deku." I looked back at him. "You know, I always admired how hard-working you are. You work for the things you want, and you worked to be here, in UA. I can't help but feel like others like me, who have quirks, are given an unfair advantage. Seeing you everyday makes me want to work hard so that I can deserve all the opportunities I'm getting. So yeah, I know you'll find a way."

I didn't hear a response, so I looked up at him. I saw tears threatening to spill out in his eyes, but I also saw a ghost of a smile on his lips. "Thank you, (y/n)." He sounded so genuine I thought my heart was about to burst. I grinned at him.

"Hey, what are best friends for?" I gave him a friendly shove.

"...yeah.. friends.." he muttered.

"what was that?" I didn't hear him clearly. I saw a blush settle on his cheeks, and naturally that made one settle on mine too.

"(y/n), I think I need to tell you something. You're more than that to me." We stopped walking as we reached my house. Ochaco and Iida turned the other way as they waved goodbye. Ochaco gave a wink. My eyes widened as I realised what Izuku was trying to say. "What I mean is, (y/n), is that I really like you! I don't want this to ruin anything so that's why I never told you, but I've had a crush on you for-" I jumped towards him and gave him the biggest bear hug I could.

"I feel the exact same way, Izuku." I reply.

"You do?"

"Yeah, why do you sound so surprised?" I laughed. There we were, laughing and hugging in each other like we hadn't seen the other in years. He is a bit taller than me, letting me rest my chin on his shoulder. I pulled back, and we said the happiest goodbye as our routes split and we went our separate ways for the night. I turned back one last time, as did he, and I gave my biggest smile. He returned the same, with a light blush. How lucky am I to be in love with my best friend.
