AN: Heyo!
I know, not much of a "break" - but when there's a quarantine going on it's the best time to write! - (I hope everyone is doing well!)
Thank you for following the story so far! You guys have been so nice and I love reading your funny comments 😂 Thank you for being awesome. My work is severely unedited, and I'm not following a strict outline, but that's just how I roll 🤪 (For now!)
A couple of you had some questions about the story, and I hope Season 2 kinda helps. There is slow character development, especially with your own character. I obviously favor Shinso as your love interest, but this story is supposed to be complicated in the romance department - more fun that way(?)
I hope you'll enjoy this next season as much as I do! (If not then uhhhhh.... sorry?! Awkward 😂 bye!!)

The song played in your head - all around you - over and over.

No words. Just the soothing rhythm from the music box. Charming and haunting. You could see a woman's face. She was gorgeous, (y/h/c) that reached her shoulders. She gazed at you with a sad longing, as if you were out of reach while in her arms.

"La, la, la-la..." the woman's voice matched the music, "La, la..."

Her trembling arms set you down. You have no idea where you are, but it's familiar. The woman is crying now.

Why are you crying - you want to ask, but your vision fades away.

You rubbed the sleep from your eyes. The dawn was brilliant and blinding. Waking up extra early with Izuku didn't help your case.

"Morning, (Y/N)!"

"Hey," you smiled at the boy in green, "You ready?"

"Uh- yeah! I might need to warm up first. By the way, is it your birthday today?"

The two of you met every morning now, an hour before school so that you could train together. By train, it meant leaping from rooftop to rooftop through the city, until you were both exhausted and had to continue on foot.

"Yup," you yawned.

Izuku smiled, "Happy birthday! D-Do you maybe have plans later..?"

Yeah.

"I do, but nothing fancy. I hardly have time for anything these days. Plus, Midnight doesn't really let me go out anymore. Just school and training."

"Oh. That's too bad," he said, "But I understand. My mom has been skeptical of me going to UA since the villain attacks..."

"It makes me want our licenses faster," you said, "So we can actually help instead of just get attacked all the time..."

You both stood on the edge of a building, staring down at the streets below. Good thing heights didn't freak you out... at all.

"You know, it's not your fault you were targeted," Izuku tightened the straps on his backpack, "You didn't ask for it. And no one blames you."

"I don't know if that's true," you muttered.

"Come on," he smiled, "You should be happy on your birthday. Let's race to the pastry place, I'll even buy!"

You took a deep breath, "You're on."

His body lit up with green sparks. You took his hand and waited for the energy surge.

"You know, Izuku," you said, "I think you know about my quirk more than I do about yours."
