Thunderous- Izuku Midoriya
Hello everyone!
So I figured it would be good if I started out with the main character :D
Here's the good broccoli boi!
Warning: There's like, one cuss word. Just Bakugou being Bakugou- Sorry if it bothers you!
Key:
(E/c)- eye color
(H/c)- hair color
(S/c)- Skin color
There you were again, sitting contently at your desk as you did every day.
Midoriya couldn't contain the pounding of his heart, nor the small flush of red on his cheeks every time he looked your way.
His eyes trail over to you. He quietly watches as you sit with your head resting on your palm, (E/c) eyes skimming the contents of the book which was laid upon your desk.
He noticed a stray strand of (H/c) hair resting upon your cheek. And the way your (S/c) skin seemed to shimmer in the early morning rays. Everything about you seemed to complement the black middle school uniform you wore.
You were so beautiful, he just couldn't help but observe you from the corner of his eye.
He swallows down a lump that had formed inside his throat, averting his gaze back down to his hero notebook.
This was routine for him. Every morning you'd arrive, sit down, and read before class started. And every morning he'd look at her from the side and feel the ferocious beating in his chest.
He swore that one of these days his heart would leap right into his throat.
"Midoriya" He snapped out of his thoughts, he was so busy thinking of you that he hadn't even realized that class had already begun.
"Y-Yes sir?" He stutters in embarrassment, quickly looking up at his teacher. The teacher met his gaze with an expectant look in his eyes.
It was then that Midoriya realized he was being called on for a question he wasn't even paying attention to.
"Umm.." He trailed off, head sinking lower and lower underneath his teachers fierce and expectant stare.
"376" A quiet voice beside him whispered, making his heart jump a little. He knew exactly who it had come from.
"Uh.. 376?" He answered, a little unsure of himself. The teacher was quiet for a second before nodding, continuing the lecture.
Midoriya sighs in relief and looks over to his side, giving an embarrassed but grateful smile to you. You gave him a quick smile in return, before going back to whatever you were doing.
Midoriya put away his hero notebook and opened his school one, taking down notes so he doesn't end up embarrassing himself again.
He has got to do something about these feelings of his.
~~~
Midoriya looked down the hallway with determination, he made up his mind, He was going to ask you if you wanted to eat lunch with him.
It took him all class to work up the nerve to ask. Or, at least think about asking.
He clenched his fists and set towards the library with an unusual new aura of confidence around him. It wasn't much confidence, granted, but enough that it seemed different than usual.
He assumed she was in the library, because everytime lunch ended he always saw her come back with a different book in hand.
He walked quickly down the hallway, muttering to himself as he thought about what he should say, what he should do, or how to keep a conversation going.
He was pulled out of his thoughts when his shoulder collided with another. He turned to apologize, then froze when his eyes met a pair of familiar fiery red ones.
"... Hi Kacchan.." He says, giving Bakugou a weak smile. That only earned an annoyed frown from the ash-blonde.
"Where the hell are you off to, nerd?" Bakugou asks, narrowing his eyes slightly at Midoriya, making him shrink a little.
"Uh.. Just headed to the library.." Midoriya says, bringing his hand up to rub the back of his head slightly.
Bakugou's crimson eyes study him for a minute, before a smirk crawls it's way onto his mouth. "You're on your way to see that bookworm aren't you?" He says tauntingly.
"How-" Bakugou cut him off. "It's not like you try to hide it, dumbass. You make puppy dog eyes everyday at her, pathetic"
Midoriya opened his mouth to speak, but again Bakugou didn't give him the chance to.
"Don't even try, stupid Deku, you don't stand a chance with any girl, including her" He sneers as he walks away. A slight smirk was plastered on his face as he went to go find his other two buddies.
Midoriya's eyes fell down to the ground as he continued.
He tried to push the discouragement from Bakugou's words out of his mind as he stopped in front of the large library doors.
He puts his hand on the handle, but hesitates to open as Bakugou's words echo inside his mind.
" You don't stand a chance with any girl, including her"
Slowly, his hand fell away from the handle and to his side. 'He's right..We've hardly said two words to each other.. She probably just felt pity for me today.. I doubt she'd even like me back"
He turns from the library with a dejected sigh, walking away to the cafeteria. Maybe he'd try again some other time, but he doubted it.
~~~
All day that repeated in his head, how he didn't ask her, how he didn't stand a chance, everything. He hardly focused in class, only enough to keep from earning himself a stern glare from the teacher.
He walked down the hallway towards the exit with his eyes downcast, wishing he were better. If only he had a cool quirk, or a little bit of popularity, or a little more strength, or-
"Hey! Midoriya!"
He knew the sound of that voice.
He turned, face flushing pink when he saw you waving over at him. You walked up to him, holding something out to him. "You left this on your desk"
Midoriya took it, seeing it was his hero notebook.
His hand flew up to his forehead, pushing back forest green hair. "Ah, I can't believe I forgot this! Thank you!"
You give him a small smile, and he returns it with a nervous smile of his own before speaking again "Well, I'm probably holding you up.. I'll get going-"
"Wait, umm.." You blurt, fiddling with the hem of your uniform. "I.. Couldn't help but notice the way you took notes. They're really detailed, very nice"
Midoriya's face flushed pink at the compliment, and he used his arms to cover his face "Oh really? Thanks! I mean they're not that good but I'm really happy you like them and yea!" He rambles.
You giggle slightly at his flustered reaction, finding it cute. "So, what do you plan on doing once you've graduated middle school?" You ask.
"I.. I was going to join UA and become the number one hero!" He says, pulling his arms away from his face with a determined sparkle in his eyes.
"UA? But aren't you quirkless?"
Midoriya fell silent at that, pulling at his sleeve a little. Your eyes widened, suddenly fearing you've just killed this boy's dream with 5 simple words.
"I'm so sorry! I Didn't mean it like that, I mean I thought they weren't taking in anyone without a quirk" You blurt.
Midoriya looked up at you with a small smile, rubbing the back of his neck while waving his other hand "No it's fine! Um, I heard they were starting to accept quirkless students so I thought why not give it a shot..?"
You give him an encouraging smile that made his heart flutter. "I bet you can do it! You have the spirit of a hero, I can feel it"
His brain went into malfunction for a second. My goodness, you were going to kill this poor boy.
"Ah- Ah! Thank you! Really, no one else has encouraged me like that" He says, shifting his weight from one foot to another. "Soo, what do you wanna do after middle school?"
You take a step back, rubbing your arm.
"Ah, I was actually going to apply for the general studies part of UA.. I was hoping advanced coursework would help me in becoming a quirkologist. Lame job I know.." You say, a small embarrassed smile working it's way on your face.
Midoriya perked up at the mention of UA, and her choice of career. "A quirkologist? No, that's not lame at all! In fact it's a very diverse and interesting choice of career!
Quirks are still relatively new to this world, and there's so much we don't know. We need more quirkologist to find better ways to help those with quirks that get in the way of their everyday life!
Not to mention plenty of institutions ready to hire, both private and government. And- Oh sorry, I'm rambling again" Midoriya chuckles embarrassedly.
When he looked at your face though, he was slightly taken aback by how your face shone in exhilaration.
"I've never met someone else who sees quirkologists like that!" She says giddily, "I love reading about quirks! And hearing about them, all different types of quirks! I particularly love emitter quirks for their huge range! Transform and mutation types are super cool too!"
Midoriya's emerald eyes looked into yours, which held the almost exact same awe, excitement, enthusiasm, and passion that he felt when talking about heroes.
She paused, shifting her weight a bit. "Sorry, I really like quirks" You laugh.
Your laugh set butterflies soaring inside his stomach, and he let out a slightly nervous chuckle. "It's fine, I love analyzing how quirks can be used in battle!"
The both of you chuckle together, and you tuck a stray strand of (H/c) hair away. "I have to get home now, but it was nice talking to you Midoriya" You smile, waving as you turned to walk away.
Without even thinking, Midoriya called out "Wait!"
You turned, looking at him. His mind crashed for a minute, and his heart raced in his chest. "U-uh, would you.. Would you like to maybe go get dinner or something after school tomorrow with me..?" He says, shrinking a little.
"Like a date?"
Midoriya's face bursted in fifty shades of red. "I- Uh- Well if you wanna call it a date you don't have to but yea kind of..?" he says quickly, covering his face a little and peeking at you with one eye.
You had a slight blush on your face, and you couldn't suppress a small smile from making its way onto your face. "Yea, I'd like that. It's a date then, see you tomorrow Midoriya"
Midoriya watched as you walked down the hallway, then out of sight. He could hear the roaring of his heart in his ears.
You sure had a thunderous effect on his heart.
