『none』
He had a phobia of women.
Though he feels just alright with his mother. He felt scared to even be near a female. Midoriya feels suffocated everytime he sees a woman, let alone knowing a woman was there in the same room with him.
He still wanted to be a hero, but he doubted himself if he would be just fine studying in a prestigious school, alongside females as his classmates.
His parents nor himself, knows where his phobia came from. It was just there. He hears voices inside his mind that haunts him, that he experiences everytime he was with a girl.
So everything confused him when he met you.
Your eyes full of decisiveness, unlike his which are full of hesitation. Your hair that looked soft to touch, your smile, your voice.
You.
Everything is so peaceful with you. No haunting voices, he felt free with you. He felt he could do anything with you around. But you are a woman, the opposite sex scared him.
What is different about you?
Maybe he is cured? Was he? By just meeting you? Is it because of you?
Midoriya tested himself, he tried walking to a female that is not you.
"Go away, coward."
There it was.
The voices.
He concluded that you are his remedy. If it was you, he was okay. If it was you, he is safe.
You wondered, after knowing his story, why is he fine with you?
Midoriya Izuku is adorable, he has an honest face that is amusing to read. He is cute, easy to tease. He was polite, a gentleman. Your ideal type, your ideal person.
It was possible, that you fell for him.
He practiced with you, occasionally with the other guys at school.
It was surprising for Midoriya to be fine at school, but that was because he sat beside you. He avoided every possible interaction with the other girls. Unfortunately, that drove the females of Class 1-A crazily curious.
So it came to this moment.
Uraraka, alongside Tsuyu neared a lone Midoriya Izuku, no (Your full name) on sight.
"P-P-P-Please! S-S-S-Stop!" The broccoli shrieked, having trouble with breathing already. The voices now screaming in his head. He is going to pass out sooner or later, it was either that or he is gonna go havoc with his quirk.
"Izuku." He calmed down as soon as he heard your voice. Faster than the speed of light, he was beside you, cowering in fear.
You narrowed your eyes at the pair of girls.
"What were you doing?" Your voiced laced with venom, full of distaste.
Uraraka stuttered with a reply, so Tsuyu answered instead, "We were curious as to why Midoriya is not talking to us at class."
You sighed.
"Izuku is not comfortable with females, except with his mother and myself. Neither of us knew the reason but he has difficult experiences, please understand that." Finishing your explanation, you ushered Midoriya to get his bag and walk home with you.
At the path home, you gave Midoriya the distance he needs. Both of you never had physical contact, because you thought that he wouldn't be comfortable with it. With the feelings you harboured for him, it was so hard to not touch him.
"Thanks." He broke the silence.
He stopped at his tracks, making you stop too.
"Because it was you, I was safe and sound (Y/N). I knew that because it was you, I was fine. I know I am a coward, I wanted to be a hero but here I am, scared of girls." He held his head down, hands turning white as he gripped onto his bag.
He sobbed, as he continued vilipending himself. Deprecating words continued to poison himself.
"Izuku."
Your warm hand held his face up. Wiping the tears that flowed out of his emerald orbs. Your eyes said that everything is going to be fine.
You are his remedy.
"You are going to be a hero. I believe in you. Don't bring yourself down. I'll be here with you in every step of the way. I'm not gonna give up on you. I love you so much, Izuku." You smiled.
Midoriya's tears ceased to fall. His mouth shut. He was doubting his ears. Did he hear you right? You love him? Him?
"I'm sorry! I was touching you! Are you uncomfortable?! I'm so sorry Izuku!!" You seemed to snap out of your reverie.
"No." Midoriya started.
"You....love me? I..." He sobbed again. Without thinking twice, he wrapped his arms around you.
"I love you too."
For a moment, both of you stayed like that. Hugging in the middle of the pavement, absent of any other person. Soon, he lets you go and cradles your face with both of his hands.
With a small amount of hesitation, he kissed you.
He smiled genuinely, looking at you lovingly.
"I love you."
Midoriya Izuku felt like he was on cloud nine. With you, he flew to the moon and witnessed spring on Jupiter and Mars. He loved you, truly and deeply.
