Love Song(DekuJirou)

Chapter 1: Jirou's Hero

"So, so, I was thinking..."

Toru Hagakure bounced along the hallway of Heights Alliance, chatting animatedly with Mina Ashido, Kyoka Jirou trailing behind. The three of them were just invited to hang out in Uraraka Ochako's room; it had become pretty common for the girls of class 1-A to gather in one of their rooms during random nights. The purpose was simply hang out together.

"Hey, maybe this time we could try..."

As invisible girl trailed on with her chat with Mina, Jirou found herself keeping a small distance between herself and the both of them. She always had a fairly good relationship with the girls of her class, but was never the one who would often butt in into conversations, so she tend to quietly listen from behind.

As they reached Ochako's room, Jirou felt a small vibration from her phone in her pocket, signalling a new notification. She took her phone out quickly, seeing that they were already at their destination. As she read through the notification, her eyes lit up, a small smile starting to form on her face. She tapped, Mina's shoulder, getting the attention of the two best friends who were standing at the doorway.

"Hey, I suddenly had something to do. You guys have fun."

With that, she turned around and left, leaving the two dumbfounded.

"Winder what's that about..." Mina muttered, perplexed.

"I bet it's Kaminari!" Toru exclaimed as she pushed her into the room, greeting Ochako and Momo Yaoyorozu upon entering.

Jirou shuts the door to her room as quietly as she could. Her heart hammering in her chest. Her room was a perfect representation of her - punk and rock. The walls were filled with posters of famous rock bands, her shelves filled with track records. Few types of guitars could be seen carefully placed by her bed, along with some professional mics.

She plopped down onto her office chair, spinning towards her laptop on the table. Taking out her headphones she plugged them into the laptop. She was often ask whether she could sub headphones with her earphone jack. The answer is yes, but she usually prefer not to use it. Since her quirk is also a part of her, too much usage will cause her to tire.

Jirou booted up her laptop, her hands shaking with excitement. She clicked on the notification which was same with the one she received on her phone. Instantly a video popped out and she slinked back into her chair, her face morphing into a relaxed one.

"Hey guys," a male's voice could be heard.

She smiled, his voice seemed to always give her comfort.

"So today I'll be trying to sing a song by Ed Sheeran called Perfect. I hope you guys enjoy!"

As the song starts, Jirou started to close her eyes, basking in his sweet melodious voice. Don't get her wrong, she's a punk kind of girl. She loves rock music, the loud and strong notes that vibrates throughout the body. But for some reason, she was attached to the soft sweet feeling of his voice.

She found his channel by complete accident. Few months ago she was scrolling through the net, then she came across one of his videos. It was fate that she decided to click and listen. Personally, Jirou wasn't a fan of slow music, she just wasn't fond of the slow rhythm and soft beats. But his sound completely blew her away. It wasn't soft and sappy like others. The way he sings; it wasn't rock, but she could still feel the power pulsing throughout her body.

His sound is so full of passion, she loved it. It's like All Might's "I am here!", but in the form of singing. She remembered giggling, thinking about All Might singing an opera. Every day after a long day if training, she would always relax to his voice. No matter how bad her day was, one song from his would brighten her sprit tenfold. His voice gives her hope.

He goes by the name 'Bean', but no one knew his real identity. He never shown his face in his videos and have a fair amount of followers (how isn't he an internet celebrity yet would still be a mystery to her).

She turned the internet upside down, trying to gain information about 'Bean' , but to her avail, nothing was found. She hoped one day, she could meet him face to face, and tell him in a way, he was her hero.

She let out a soft moan of pleasure when the video ended, a light blush dusting her cheeks. His soft songs were her favourite, but his romantic songs also had never failed to make her heart skip a few beat. It might sound absurd, but there's a slight possibility that she had a crush on 'Bean'.

Stretching her arms, she grabbed her guitar, already feeling better than usual.

"Now, let's see what tune can we blast."

"Man....Aizawa Sensei was harsher on us than usual..."

Mina complained as the girls of class 1-A walked back to the dorms. It was yet another tiring day for the students, as their homeroom teacher tend to go overboard with their training sometimes.

"I'm heading back to my room."

Jirou stated, earning a few murmurs of agreements from her friends. She retreated into her room and picked up her phone, checking her notifications.

No videos today... She thought to herself. I kind of wish he could upload everyday, but the wait was kind of worth it I guess...

After a quick and relaxing bath, she sat on her chair, before remembering that she had something to do.

That's right... Kaminari still had one of my CDs, maybe I should get him to return me, the boys should be back by now.

The girls and boys' rooms were located at two sides of the floor, and Kaminari's room just happen to be the furthest of them all, than means she had to pass all of the boys'room before reaching his.

As she walked pass the rooms, she couldn't help but take notice about the lack of sound in their rooms, especially Bakugo's. The only sound she could hear was Kirishima sprouting random 'manly' stuff in his room. As she passed by Midoriya's room, a certain voice made her stop in her tracks. Due to her quirk, she was able to hear better than anyone else, even without using her earphone jack. Coming from his room was a voice she adored, usually male's voice were hard to distinguish, especially when their singing. But his voice filled her with so much hope and passion she recognised it immediately.

She wanted to knock, to ask if the green haired boy actually had the same interest as her, but then decided against it. She knew perfectly well the feeling of being interrupted when listening to his singing. So, she decided to leave him for now and come back later.

(5 minutes later)

After getting her CD back from Kaminari and politely rejecting his offer to hang out in his room, she made a beeline straight to Midoriya's room.

*knock knock*

"Midoriya?"


"J-jirou!?!?" Midoriya's panicked cry resonated from the other side of the door, along with a few loud and messy shuffling.

Wonder what's he doing in there.

She leaned against the outside wall, arm crossed. After a few minutes of waiting, she wanted to give up and come back later, mind you she wasn't really a patient person, but a small squeak from the door beside caught her attention.

"Umm...J-Jirou?" The room door creaked opened to reveal half a mop of curly green hair. Midoriya Izuku peeked shyly through the small crack of his door, the worry clearly shown in his wide green eyes, his face flushed red.

"D-did you need anything?"

Originally she had planned on responding with a sarcastic remark, but the look on his face instantly melted her heart. Like, how could someone even possibly be this cute, when said person should be apologizing for taking so much time?

"I...just wanted to ask you something..." She turned her head slightly away from him, a light blush dusting her cheeks. "Is it ok if I come in?"

"S-sure..."

As he led her into his room, She couldn't help but notice something was different. When they first moved into the dorm they had a chance to look at each others' rooms due to the small competition Mina suggested. Everyone knew that Midoriya was a huge hero fanboy. He adored All Might so much he practically turned his room into his personal All Might shrine. But still...

"There seems to be lesser stuff now..."

"H-huh?" He spun around to see Jirou examining his room and instantly understood what she was talking about. Even since All Might's final fight, his room had undergone a few changes. The numerous posters and figurines that had once covered the entire room was now reduced to only a tenth.

"Ever since All Might's last fight, I've had some thought about... certain stuff." He started, "D-dont get me wrong! I-I'm still a fan of All Might, he'll always be number one in my heart. It's just...I think it's time for me to step out of his shadow."

He placed his hand in his chest, "I've been mimicking him for too long, my sense and style had been in shambles. He'll continue to inspire me to be a hero but, from now on I'll forge my own path, to be a the hero everyone needs!" He finished, his eyes sparkling with determination and a full blown smile in his face.

Jirou was shocked, heck she even felt that she doesn't deserve to hear what he had said! She had a lot of feelings she wanted to express, but finally settling for a warm smile. "You've matured so much..."

"H-huh?" He snapped out of the sudden adrenaline that came to him, "I guess so..." He scratched the back of his head sheepishly, "A-anyways, what was it that you wanted to ask me about?"

"Oh!" She was so caught up in the moment that she had almost forgotten about the reason you're here. "You didn't tell me that you were a Beanie too!" Beanie was the name the fans created for themselves.

"B-beanie, w-what are you talking about?" Instantly he became flustered.

"Yeah! You listen to Bean too right?" She continued, "I overheard his listen to his singing when I passed by your room, he's the best right?" She started to move her arms slightly as she talked about her idol/hero.

"O-oh, uh yeah..." He seemed to be much calmer than before. "Didn't know you were a fan too, Jirou."

"Are you kidding me!" Before he had a chance to register what was happening, she was already in his face. "He's the freaking best! I honestly didn't know how he wasn't famous yet."

"I-I get it Jirou. J-just, please back off." He nearly screamed, his face steaming from being so close to a girl as he tried making a pushing motion.

"Oh...sorry, guess I got too excited there." She twirled her earphone jack as she slowly backed away, blushing slightly.

"Still," she wondered as she looked at him, "I really wanted to meet him, to tell him how much he meant to me, to tell him that he is my hero..."

"Jirou..." He didn't know what to say.

"Anyways" she made her way towards the door, "Just wanted to ask you this, glad to know there's a Beanie in the class too, talk to you later?" She asked, halfway out the door."

"Y-yeah, sure."

She smiled as she close the door behind her, not many knew about it but she had grown rather fond of the green haired boy, well expect for the shy muttering part. He had always been a inspiration for her to work harder, and she's sure that she could say the same for the others. Even though they never really interacted much, she was glad that during this encounter they were able to become friends, especially since he was another Beanie. She slowly hummed a soft sing as she returned to her room, her heart lighter than usual.

To add cherry to the top, Bean had uploaded another video, few minutes after she had left Midoriya's room.
