Surface Tension - {Izuku Midoriya x OC}
16 parts Ongoing Mature(❗️Bi-Weekly Updates❗️)
Eiko Chihara and Izuku Midoriya had been inseparable as kids, bonded by their shared dream of becoming heroes one day. But everything changed when Eiko's father, a beloved Pro Hero, was killed in a villain attack before her first year in junior high. After witnessing and experiencing her father's gruesome death her grief consumed her, and by the end of the year, she had pushed everyone away-including Izuku.
Determined to follow her father's footsteps and become a hero he could've been proud of, Eiko buried herself in her studies and quirk training, shutting off her emotions to the outside world and focusing solely on getting into U.A. She succeeded through recommendations but entered class 1-A a guarded and distant version of the girl she used to be.
Seeing Izuku again was very unexpected but it sparked awkward conversations and fleeting glances that reminded them both of the bond they once shared. As they spent more time together, the walls she'd built started to crumble. Their rekindled friendship soon brought back not only memories but also feelings she had long buried-ones she could no longer ignore.
