Chapter 19

-Uraraka's POV-

After about a week of Eri and Kota living at UA, Deku was able to come back to UA again. Eri lives in my room, and Kota lives in Deku's room. Ever since the tragedy, Deku and I have actually became even more close than before. We talked more, spent more time together, and so on. I loved it, and I felt complete, and I thought I'd never feel loved again as soon as Deku was hit by a car at the very beginning. But luckily, Deku was breathing. He was happy and healthy, and by my side. Which is just about all I need.

Now, you know how I want to spend the rest of my life with Deku and all? Well, I got a little story for you. On the day of my birthday (December 27th), the best thing of my life happened. It all began with a single knock at my door, and finding Deku waking me up, right next to my bed.

As Deku exclaimed, "Happy Birthday Uraraka!" I opened my eyes, smiling.

"Thank you Deku..." I yawned, not ready to get up and get moving. Slowly, I got up out of bed, and combed my hair, my outfit already prepared for the day. As I heard the knots groaning, I started getting my game plan together. After I would take a quick shower and get ready for the day, I'd help Eri get ready. Then, we're gonna have a huge breakfast. Lastly, we'd just party all day. I mean, who doesn't like parties?

After completely getting ready, I shook Eri awake. When she woke up, I whispered to her good morning. She gasped in pleasure, looking up at me.

"Today's your birthday!" She exclaimed.

"It sure is!" I grinned, picking the little girl up. I combed her hair, brushed her teeth, and put on her outfit. I slid a headband in her hair, and turned her around to look in the mirror. "Ta-da!" I shouted as the girl grinned from ear to ear. We made our way to the kitchen, finding out that breakfast had already been made. It was like a fresh, delicious buffet. I let Eri go first, and she had scrambled eggs, a biscuit with raspberry jam, two sausage patties, a donut, and an apple juice. She ended up having a meal cooked just for her. Meanwhile, I had scrambled eggs, a donut, two sausage links, one slice of buttered toast, and a strawberry lemonade. After breakfast, we played a bunch of games. For example, we played Uno, Chess, Life, and Monopoly. If the max players was in a game, people would team up with others. It was a lot of fun, and I loved it. Especially the fact that me and Deku could spend time together.

After we played games and had fun, I opened my presents. Yaomomo gave me some new cute clothes, Mina gave me 2,164¥ and a henna kit, and so on. Lucky for me, I ended up getting exactly 10,995¥ in cash (which of course I gave half of it to my parents), some new clothes, and other stuff. Even though all of the gifts were amazing, I knew for sure which one was my number one favorite. It was the gift Deku gave me.

"Okay Uraraka... I'd first like to say that I understand if you don't like my gift that much, and if you think it's just all plain. I just wanted to give something homemade to you that I truly mean from the bottom of my heart. So, here you go..." He blushed, handing me a canvas wrapped in wrapping paper, a pink bow securing it. I carefully opened it up, and stared at the drawing Deku had gave to me. It was absolutely beautiful, and I loved it so much.

After reading the message Deku wrote on it, I hugged him as tight as I could out of nowhere, whispering in his ear my gratitude and thankfulness by simply saying thank you.

And that drawing was the start of a new adventure. Not something sad, not something violent, but something happy. Something that made me the happiest girl on Earth.
