Healing pt 2(ft. Demon)

"Izuku? Izuku? Izuku!"

"Oh, what is it Tooru-chan?"

"Why are you spacing out? We're almost at the mall!" Her voice was filled with excitement.

These past couples of months we're nothing but busy for Izuku and Tooru. As the weeks pass to the weekend they would go on dates or just hang out as they called it. It didn't take long for Tooru and Izuku to use each other's first name.

In these past months, everything was beginning to heal at a normal rate. It has been so long since Izuku ever remembered the breakup. Thanks to the presence of an energetic, kind, and patient girl next to him, he felt his life started to brighten up.

It was weird though when they started hanging out more often at school and in the dorms. For one, Tooru literally just left her group of girlfriends for a depressed boy who wanted nothing to do with her or anyone else. Another assumption was that their classmates were getting ideas that the two were dating and all of the times they confronted Izuku and Tooru it was nothing but denying that assumption. 

It was hard for Tooru to adjust to Izuku's 'training'. Seeing him come in all bloodied and battered with a couple of new scars every week... it was difficult indeed. She confronted about this idea to Izuku but to him. It was nothing more than a bad addiction to strengthening the properties of his power. Speaking of power, Tooru manages to become invisible for only to about an hour or so. The girl could not understand why it just turned off in the first place but she was pleased with the progress with her regaining her quirk's strength.

While the pair is at the entrance of the mall, the same mall when Tooru realized Izuku's secret pain; this time it was different. She was here to have fun with her friend.

During past dates or hangouts-whatever, they called it. The tan-skin girl would introduce the green-haired boy to many different hobbies or activities. Literally out of all of the many different activities, only the One-For-All user would choose writing as his only pastime. Tooru didn't mind it, because she would get to read all of the short stories that Izuku created through pen and paper.

As the time went on, the lass knew why Izuku was so akin to writing; it was his only major hobby before aiming for U.A. Scribbling in his notebook of his. The one with the analysis of heroes.

Tooru smiled at herself. Once they went inside they went to many different stores and looked around like tourists on vacation.

Izuku found himself being led by the girl next to him. Her arm wrapped around him as he is being dragged. Normally if this was him before Highschool he would have blushed like crazy, but given how much emotions were built, tarnished, and reconstructing. Izuku felt a bit happy that Tooru was going out of her way to help him.

He was glad that she was his friend.

Once a couple of hours of walking and exploring happen, the two decided it was best to have lunch. Going to a nearby restaurant, Izuku found them a table while Tooru went and ordered for them.

After getting their food and finally able to sit and chow down upon their lunch, both started to talk.

"Izuku, I wanted to say thanks for coming with me."

Her smile genuine but her lips missed a bit of ketchup. Izuku chuckled to himself before responding.

"I should be thanking you for inviting me and taking me to other places during your free-time for that matter."

Tooru never got used to that soft bright eyes. It was hard to believe but two or three months ago those same emerald prices were nothing but dull and dead. Deprived of any life in them. She was glad that they weren't to be seen again.
