    Today is January 7th and it's our last few days before we go back. I have to say I've enjoying this past week spending time with my mom and All-Might. It felt like one little family. That was the most fun I've had at home in a long time. Although, it would be better if I could spend it with someone special, but never mind that now.
   I'm currently 14 weeks along and am about to start my 2nd trimester. To be honest, I've forgotten what it's like to be a boy. Ever since I found out I was pregnant I forgot my worries about transforming back. Maybe this was a good thing. I mean I'm not saying I want to be a female forever, but for now it's worth it. As the days go on I grow more and more excited for my baby's arrival. However, I feel like I'm carrying a huge burden by not telling any of my classmates about this. Even my best friends Uraraka and Iida don't know.
    I've come to the conclusion that it's best if I tell them. At least if I let them know then it might take this pressure of my chest. Of course, there's always the possibility that they wouldn't be supportive of my decision, and I would have to tell them about Shoto and I. I look outside my window and watch the gently, falling snow. It's time to text them;I hope on meeting today. All three of us are in a group chat together, but it's been pretty barren for a while. My heart pounds and I send out the message. There it's done. Now all that's left to do is wait for them to respond back.

Ding

    That was fast. I open up the chat and see that both Uraraka and Iida have agreed to meet up today. Phew step one is done. We set up at time and place and I get ready to reveal my long kept secret.
     I gently scrape the snow off my boots as I step into the warmly lit cafe. It was buzzing with people. I crane my neck as I look for my friends. There they sat at a table in the back. We smile as we embrace each other in hugs. I get settled in as the waitress comes by to get our order.

    "Hello, im Kamiya-san (hopefully I used that suffix correctly. I did some research and am still unsure) what can I get you?

   "Oh, may I get the hot chocolate and

"Of course and for you sir?"

"May I have an amazake?"

"Gladly, and you miss?"

"Uh May I get the honey toast and a croquant chou zaku zaku and a cheesecake? Oh and some matcha tea if you don't mind?"

She smiles kindly, writes everything down, and walks away. My eyes are met with two pairs of surprised eyes.

"I guess i was extra hungry today. I haven't eaten all day," I say.

That was partially true. I am really hungry, but I had a big breakfast this morning. Damn these cravings. While we wait for our orders we catch up by talking about our first winter break with our families.

"Yeah, it's been really nice to see my parents again," Uraraka grins.

Our food and drinks arrive and I immediately start to dig in. Everything tastes so good. I should be able to stomach it all down. We indulge in the food with pure silence from us. Soon Uraraka speaks up after minutes of quiet.

"So Deku, what is it you wanted to talk to us about?"

I stop my fork  in mid air. Oh right, I completely forgot the reason I invited us here. I stare at her for a few seconds before blinking and gathering myself.

"Oh yeah, I almost forgot. W-well there are actually two thing I wanted to discuss."

"Go on," Uraraka motions.

"Okay, mmm, gosh uh how do I say this?"

Sigh

"Okay well the first thing I'll say is that Shoto and I are no longer together," I say looking down at the table.

"What!?" Uraraka shouts.

"When did this happen? Are you okay? If he hurt you, I'll make sure he-" she starts.

"N-no, please don't. It would only make things worse. And to answer your question, it happened the day before break," I answer.

"I'm sorry Deku, but Iida and I will always be here for you no matter what."

"No matter what?" I ask assuringly.

"She's right Midoriya. As your friends, we're here to support each other and whatever problems we face."

"Well there is one more thing I haven't told you."

"Yes," they say.

"I-I'm pregnant."

"Oh my gosh," Uraraka mutters.

"I'm 14 weeks pregnant and it-it's Shoto's," I explain.

They're silent.

"That's why I've been gaining weight, that's why I've been eating so much, and that's the real reason why I'm being held back a year," I tell them.

"Is that why Todoroki-kun broke up with you? Because your having his baby?", Uraraka asks.

"No it wasn't that. It's just-"

Gosh I can't tell them the actual reason why we broke up. That's too personal and I wouldn't want something to happen to him.

"He doesn't know;it was mutual," I lie.

They both look at me unconvinced. Uraraka looks sad and Iida looks disappointed. I wouldn't doubt it. Everything I've told them isn't exactly what they must've had in mind.

"Midoriya I don't know what to say, except that you have my support. I don't care for the reason of why you fell pregnant, but I'm sure it's a reasonable one." Iida states.

"Me too, like Iida said earlier we're here for you no matter what happens," she adds.

I begin to tear up; my friends smile at me softly. We pay for our meal and head back to my house. Uraraka smiles as she sees my tiny baby bump. The coziness of the blankets gives everything a homely feel. Now that my secret is out to two of my closest friends I feel more at ease. No more secrets, when he time comes I'll reveal my secret to all of 1-A. Maybe then everything will be better, but for now all I can do is enjoy the present moment.
