"Deku!" Uraraka ran up to the young man walking out of the doors of UA.

He turned to look at her and smiled kindly. "What is it?"

"Let's walk home together. We are both going the same way after all." She insisted and the green headed boy happily agreed with her.

Of course, she did consider Midoriya a friend of hers and as friends wanting to walk together is totally fine; however, there was more to it than just a friendly walk.

Uraraka wanted to know more about him.

Who wouldn't want to know more about someone who seems so secretive. Even when Midoriya was adopted by All Might after the sudden death of his parents, All Might himself seemed to become more defensive and protective when it came to him. It was odd, yet intriguing. He had everyone wanting to know, teachers and students. It's difficult though as Midoriya doesn't talk about himself at all.

"Hey Deku?" The young woman turned to look at him as they walked. "Why don't you talk about yourself?" Uraraka found it best to just ask directly and nit go around the subject. If she did so, he probably would get the idea to do the same. Midoriya looked down at her, a gentle smile still place upon his lips. "Hm? What do you mean?"

"You never talk about yourself. No one knows anything about you besides the fact you're adopted and.. your parents." She mumbled the last two words. From his expression, he seemed unfazed by the mention of them. It was a relief it wasn't a sensitive subject she touched. "Hm," Midoriya's gaze returned to the path ahead. "No one has asked."

"What!? Everyone has asked!" Uraraka stared at him in disbelief. Was he serious? Almost everyday someone approaches him just to ask a single question. Saying "No one has asked" makes it frustrating and points him more into the fact that he's doing this purposely.

Midoriya only laughed in response to her. Yeah, no doubt he's avoiding it. She narrowed her eyes at him in suspension. He's hard to read, but at the same time he's pretty obvious. "You know what, I'll answer one question for you." He grinned. Uraraka's brown eyes became wide. "Seriously?" Midoriya nodded. "But next time. It's about time we go our separate ways now. Your house is around the corner as mine is still down the road." Uraraka was so focused on getting information out of him that she didn't notice they made it to the street leading down to her house. She sighed. At least he gave her his word. That's something right?

Almost as soon as Midoriya walked through the doors of his house, he was met with a hug from his adoptive father, All Might. "Young Midoriya, welcome back." When he let go of him, he took the time to look Midoriya up and down then search his face for a moment.
"What is it?" Midoriya chuckled. All Might paused for a moment before shrugging and giving him a small smile. "It's nothing. It's just.. strange for me to see you growing up so fast. You're eighteen and a bit taller than me. I still think about when you were only five years old." The younger male laughed at that. Midoriya was taken in by him at that age and by the age of six, was being taught everything the man knew. He was an old man on the verge of planning his retirement as it was taking a lot out of him and shortening his life whenever he stressed over work now. At that age, began teaching young Midoriya about staying health and in shape as the boy has expressed an interest in his line of work and becoming a "pro hero" like him.

"Are you planning anything for tonight?" All Might questioned moving aside so Midoriya could properly come in the house. "Mh, not tonight. I think I'll just go to sleep." He smiled making his way pass the other and up the stairs to his room. All Might sighed and looked at Midoriya in concern, but a forced smile in place. "Ah, that's good to hear. You need you rest afterall, right?"

Midoriya looked over his should at him. A small grin and slanted green eyes staring right at the man giving All Might a shiver down his spine. "Ri~ght."
