Not Gone. (Ghost Deku AU)

C12pter Twelve

Felt like posting another.

I sit at my desk, playing through the videos given to me by Inko Midoriya, the mother to the... kid? Teen? Ghost? I don't know anymore. I drop my head and rub my neck before looking back up to the computer monitor.  I replay the videos as many times as I can, looking for some minuscule hint into what he is planning. A long haired man walks into the study, holding the gift of god, coffee. 

"How many cups is this today?" He asks with a slightly concerned smile,

"What you don't know can't hurt you." I respond, grabbing the hot cup from his hand. I honestly couldn't even tell you what number this is, but I know it's not high enough if I'm going to keep going through these videos. I look up to the blonde, towering over my shoulder as I sit in the chair, a slight smile across his face. Damn his smile is contagious. I give a slight smile, that probably looks more like a smirk back while drinking from my newly poured cup.

The smile I try to suppress only grows as I watch both the green haired boy and the admiring  man beside me. He pulls up a chair to watch. We wince when he falls, smile when he laughs, and sit in awe when he says something adorable, hey wait, this isn't what I'm supposed to be doing.

I slam my head in to the keyboard, opening up random tabs that cover the video. I take a breath and close the newly opened tabs including the video. Hizashi looks slightly saddened by me closing it.

"He is so cute." he states happily, I hum in response, opening up a different video, his face lights up in intrigue as he leans in. "Can I meet him someday?"

"If I can find a proper way to contact him and talk to him then sure." I pause the video to look at him, "What do you think I should do? I feel like I'm talking into the air here." 

"That was a bad pun, Shouta." I give a weak smirk. "If this is his quirk, and you are officially his teacher, it's obvious. You just need to do what you do for the other students."

"Make him make me want to retreat inside my sleeping bag and never come out?" 

"NO. You need to train his quirk! That's what we do at UA!" How could I just skip over that idea? Training his quirk!

"But I have no idea the potentials or side affects of his quirk, I don't know where I would even get started." I spin my chair back towards the video, and notice something strange, the boy is sitting on a bench while watching Bakugo use his quirk, Izuku's talking to someone. I pause the video, "What the hell?"

"'Zashi." he leans in, a bit too close if it were anyone else, but it's him. I resume playing the video, Izuku can be heard talking lightly in the background about Bakugo's quirk. But he's not just mumbling to himself, it's like he's in a full conversation. Mrs. Midoriya never mentioned anything about imaginary friends. "Hizashi."

"Could he be talking to someone who's dead? Could he be using his quirk, and just no one realized it? Not even himself?"

A/n, this is a half chapter update (Which is why it's so insanely short.) that just talks about what going down between the last chapter and the next, which will likely be much longer than usual. I hope you enjoyed some lil' wholesome love here. Sorry for the two short chapters, I guess I could have just combined them into one, but it's too late now. -Miss_Fall
