It has been a week since Izuku learned of his Identity. 'Izuku Louis huh?..Not bad' he thought to himself..  but his name is not really his problem right now but his brother.

Yes it has been a week and its also been a week since Izuku tried to call his brother Zuko again and again. He just couldn't muster up the courage to do so. Everytime before pressing the call button or send button on doubtful texts he would always have anxiety and doubts. Until he just decided to call his mom on the new application he was told to use. For now there are only two contacts. His mom and Zuko.
'it shouldn't be that hard to call mom and not accidentally call Zuko, ..right?' he thought.

Then just like that, he pressed Zuko's call profile accidentally because of panic. He tried to end it as fast as he could. Key word 'Tried', but before he could do anything, not even three seconds passed the call was already answered.

A "Hello?" could be heard from the other line. It was in english. 'now i know why mom taught all those english words at a young age' a quick thought from Izuku.

"Izuku? " the voice from the call called out again. The voice was hopeful.

"Zuko?? " The greenette questioned in a soft manner.

"yea..  It's me.. " Zuko replied as he was sure the voice belonged to his little brother. 'he sounds like he was about to cry.. '

"c-can we do a video call?" Izuku asked,  even though he was hesitant, but there's a part of him that wanted to see his older brother for the first time.. I mean who wouldn't in his situation?

"of course.." a kind reply of satisfaction was what Izuku recieved.

Zuko ended the voice call, not even ten seconds passed the greenette recieved another call but this time it was a video call. He took his breath then accepted the call.

On his phone screen, he now see a dirty blonde, almost seemed brown with somewhat tint of black hair, 'His hair is messy like mine but his looks tamable and at least flows downwards  ' Izuku thought. Clearly Zuko's eyes are blue. Cerulean blue to be specific. He has no lesser freckles than Izuku, somewhat long lashes runs in the family it seems. In shorter words, he is handsome.

"WOW!  You're really a cute cinnamon roll just like mom said! " Izuku was surprised at Zuko's words. That he didn't know what to say.. But then came out a..

..."gwaaahh!  Y-you have Brown HAIR!!" stumbling on words and became all shy with gwaaas and aahhs as Izuku exclaimed at his brother.

"and you really look like mom and dad mixed together! Even your eyes has a tint of blue in them!! " the seemingly brunette guy said in amazement.

"th-they have!?!! " The greenette said with a surpise plastered on his face.

"yup! try looking carefully at a mirror" Zuko encouraging Izuku happily with a smile.. The smile relaxed the greenette and got loose of the tension he felt. He was now relaxed and now able to talk back properly and have a decent conversation with his brother.

Hours passed, unaware of the time it was already 1 am in the morning for Izuko and its the afternoon for Zuko.. Still on the call Zuko was rambling all about the amazing things he wants to show the greenette and how their father was like, but as of now he realized he was hearing snores from his device..  "whoops, forgot about the time difference ...  Must've kept you awake huh? , Goodnight lil bro.. " then he ended the call.

The next day, everyone was at the kitchen having their own breakfast but a certain greenette was missing.
"Hey extras have any of you seen deku!?!?" the hot headed Pomeranian asked his classmates.

"Sorry Bakubro, haven't seen him this morning"

"Not yet, kero."

"I think he hasn't woken up yet.."
Todoroki said in between of taking a slurp of his cold soba.

"Hah!? That nerd always wakes up early to avoid being late to class IcyHot!!" Bakugo shouts clearly frustrated.  "Ehh whatever,  Oi pinkcheeks go check if your boyfriend's awake!"

Uraraka's face heats up. "Wh-Whaa--!?!?  He, HE'S NOT MY BOYFRIEND BAKUGO!!" she shouted while blushing as red as a tomato.

"YOU DARE YELL AT ME!?! YOU THI-"

"Bakugo! Uraraka!  As UA students we should not be fighting and maintain order!" Iida butted in the 'conversation' chopping something invisible.

Uraraka ended up to be the one waking Deku and knocked on his door, but no answer. She does hear snores though, she tried knocking and calling out his name to open the door but it was locked.  So she came to get Bakugo since his Midoriya's childhood bestfriend, figures he knows what to do.

"uhmm..  Hey Bakugo..? How do you wake Midoriya up from outside?" she shouted from the stairs.

" JUST TRY TO BRIBE HIM WITH ALL MIGHT MERCH OR SOME SHIZ" Bakugo yelled back.
(profanity free)

Uraraka came back at Izuku's door step but before she could say anything the door opened. "Uwah!! Midoriya-kun! Good morning! Uhmm.. Class starts in thirty minutes and you weren't awake yet and I was about to wake you up by bribing you with all might merch but I don't really have one and I-" she was cut off by the greenette. "Uraraka-san! Normally I would be the one rambling but please don't be nervous, I bet Kacchan told you to bribe me with merch." he said then yawned. Izuku rubbed his eyes and now he got to see clearly he saw Uraraka red. "uhh Uraraka-san,  are you sick? Your face is red" he says as he put a hand on the brunette's forehead. Uraraka got redder then started running away shouting..  " UH-A-I-I'M ALRIGHT MIDORIYA-KUN! I'LL SEE YOU IN CLASS LATER" she then disappeared from his sight.

He came back at his room and quickly changed to his uniform. Running towards the kitchen with a messy tie, then grabbing a toast and put it in his mouth, not realizing everyone was looking at him.

"Easy Midobro! still got a bit time before we head to the classroom"
Kirishima said relaxed.

Then the greenette turned to everyone to see everyone taking their time.. "whoops! must've dressed up too fast." he said smiling sheepishly while scratching the back of his neck.

"So why're you up late Deku?" Bakugo asked his friend. 

"up late..?" Izuku tilted his head in confusion..

"Dam Nerd!!  I CAN HEAR YOUR PHONE CALL LAST NIGHT!  DO YOU KNOW I KEPT WAKING U-"

"ohh right, I passed by your room last night midoriya..when going to the bathroom.. Around one? Someone seemed to be on the other line." Todoroki interrupted Bakugo. 

Izuku snapped out of confusion and remembered last night, "AHH ZUKO!"
He suddenly shouted. Now his classmates were the ones tilting.
"Zuko..?"

"Midoriya what's a Zuko?"

"Denki that's rude! Zuko might be a who!!"

"who's Zuko?"

"Nerd what are you saying!?!! Just eat so we can go to class first!"

"ohh..  Sorry guys just remebered something" instead of a sheepy smile it was a bright smile.  "Zuko's my brother!"
