I Don't Run An Orphanage!

chapter 2

Izuku blinked.

And then he blinked again.

He rubbed his eyes and then opened them again.

Nope. They were still there.

To say Izuku was nervous when some people came and started bringing creates into his house. He had started assuming it was a bomb and was ready to get Eri and run when one of the delivery men handed him a phone.

"Uh hello?" Izuku said.

"Is this Izuku Midoriya?" Asked a voice over the phone.

"Y-Yes?" Izuku said.

"Ah good. We would just like to send you our sincere thanks, for helping out with the Overhaul problem."

"H-How do you know about that?!" Izuku asked. While the news did find out about and reported his story, they had kept his and Eri's identities a secret. Making sure to censor their pictures and not say their names.

"Let's just say. We have our ways." The man said. "Anyway, Overhaul was a pain in the ass. We've been wanting to get rid of him for years! But that quirk of his was always a pain in the ass. But thanks to you, the heroes got him, and put him in special cuffs that wouldn't let the bastard use his quirk! Meaning he couldn't fix himself after his unfortunate accident."

"WHAT!?" Izuku shouted in shock.

"So, as thanks, I and my associates decided to chip in, and get you something nice." The man said. "Good luck kid. Enjoy the cash."

The man hung up.

The next day.

Money. Money is what was in the crates. Lots, and lots of money.

After a few calls and some inspections by the police, Izuku found out a few things.

Firstly, Overhaul was indeed dead. He was assassinated while being transported to prison. Probably be an assortment of criminal groups that hated his guts.

Secondly, those criminal groups were probably the ones who sent Izuku the cash. Despite this, the police couldn't find anything illegal about it, so strangely enough, Izuku was allowed to keep it.

After his mother heard the news that they were now rich. She quit her job and headed back home. Where she promptly took some of the money saying she was going to start up her own company, so they would never need to worry about money again.

Izuku had used this money, along with the money he was receiving from the government, to buy Eri everything she needed. A bed, clothes, food. (The first time Izuku cooked for her she cried from sheer happiness, making Izuku cry too.)

Eri had never been as happy as she was with Izuku. And Izuku had gotten out of his funk and was honestly happier then he had been in a long time. (Although the fact that he still hadn't gone to school since then and therefore hadn't been bullied.)

But there was still one issue.

"Hey Eri, why don't we go to the park?" Izuku asked her while they watched television.
