Connection (Izuku x Ochako)

Izuku's POV:

It's been one month. Somehow, I've been accepted into Yuuei, and today is my first day. Yet again I stand before the gargantuan doors, looking up at them, I'm here, I'm back. I haven't told my mother about my quirk yet, she hasn't asked, but I think she assumes that I was simply accepted into the school as a support hero, an organiser, or maybe a costume designer. It's a little od that she hasn't asked what I'm going to be doing at the school, but it doesn't matter. Even so, I should probably tell her later.

As I make my way to the classroom 1-A, I take note of how large the halls and doors are, I think this is to accommodate for quirks which make the user larger than normal. Yet again I find myself looking at different peoples quirks as I walk, and a surprising number of them have hidden quirks.

In likeness to the surrounding areas, the door to class 1-A is also large, as I open the doors, I see my new classmates for the first time, Bakugo is being told off by Iida for putting his feet on the desk, the girl with the frog quirk is sitting around the back, watching them. The boy with red and white hair is sitting quietly, also watching the two students argue. As well as them there is a boy with piercing yellow hair with a black streak, who almost seems to be crackling with, lightning? For a moment I just stand in awe at the sight, not that it is particularly spectacular, simply dazzled by the fact that I've done it, thee quirkless Deku has actually made it.

In the second I am distracted, everyone notices me, and quickly falls silent, with quiet whispering. I zone back in and I try to listen in as I walk to a free desk. "Whoa, is that him? the one who destroyed the city?", "He's smaller than I thought he would be.", "I wonder what is quirk is?". I sit at my desk, head down, and soon, despite what I thought, I feel a hand on my shoulder, and as I look up I see the boy with the yellow hair before me, "The name's Kaminari, nice to meet ya!" he says enthusiastically, while giving the thumbs up, "Ya name's Izuku right? Anyway, I wanna hear bout that quirk you pulled during the exam. What was that power!" he borderline yells. As I give a brief rundown of my quirk, leaving out anything to do with passing it on or All Might, I see the rest of the class leaning in to listen in, apparently I've become a talking point among the school, simply from showing my full power.

The rest of the day consisted of many introductions, and many asking about if the rumors that I had levelled a city with a single blast were true, which I answered. this is weird, I've never had this much attention before, being quirkless I always passed under the radar of most people. so this is odd. I make my way though the day, at one point I accidently send a baseball into orbit with one finger, that hurt a little. But now I'm on my way home, as I approach my door, something's off, the door has been broken down, and what waits inside, is my first experience with what I'm really getting into when I signed up for the hero academy.
