The Next Day
(Izuku's POV)
"BEEP BEEP BEEP" I heard someone yell, waking me up.
"What the he-" I started to say until I realized it was my mom, and if she heard me curse then I am as good as dead.
"Good morning Izu! You forgot to set your alarm clock, so you are running fifteen minutes behind." My mom informed me.
"Well, there goes my morning shower." I say chuckling.
"Just get up and get dressed, ok? I already started making breakfast, so the morning should go by quickly." My mom said while walking out of my room.
"Did she imitate an alarm clock?" I thought aloud.
I got up and got dressed, and then brushed my teeth and 'forgot' to brush my hair. I then went to find my mom, who had a plate of some simple toast.
"Here you go Izu! School starts in 30 minutes, so you should probably eat this on your walk there." She says, handing me some toast.
"Ok mom." I reply, grabbing the toast and putting in my mouth so I could get my backpack ready and then to, you know, put it on.
"Bye Izu!" My mom yells as I walk out the door.
"Bye mom!" I yell back, although it was muffled due to the toast that is still in my mouth.
About halfway there I see the girl I saw yesterday, Yasuko. I never realized that she walks this way, she really wasn't lying when she said that people don't notice her. If I hadn't met her yesterday, I don't think I would have realized that she existed.
I wonder what her quirk is.
She probably doesn't have anything flashy, considering she doesn't show it at all. But then again you technically aren't supposed to show your quirk in public. But, her personality isn't like the others, she isn't arrogant in any way, or at least not that I have seen.
"My quirk is called Telepathy." She tells me.
"AH- I didn't realize that you were right there, was I muttering too loud?" I ask, not knowing the full extent of her quirk, I just thought it would be the same as Mandalay from the wild, wild pussy cats.
"Sorry for scaring you. And, don't worry, you weren't muttering that loud, I couldn't even make out what you were muttering about." She replied. Well, at least I wasn't muttering loud, but how did she know I was thinking about her quirk? She then sighed.
"What is wrong?" I asked, confused as to why she sighed.
"My quirk is Telepathy, I can hear the thoughts of anyone in a twenty foot radius of me. I also can't turn it off either." She tells me. She also adds with a rather pointed look, "I am not related to Mandalay either."
"O-oh, sorry for thinking that then.. Your quirk sounds really cool!" I say, already making a new page in my notebook titled 'Kit Yasuko.'
"What are you doing?" She asks, looking at my notebook.
"Oh, I take notes about quirks, so I am taking notes about yours! With your quirk you must know a lot about quirks too." I tell her with a smile.
"Hmm, that's cool. And, sadly no, I only know what others think about their quirk. I couldn't tell you anything about the Explosion quirk that you don't already know, other than the fact that Bakugo thinks it is stronger than All Might's quirk, but you probably already know that." She said, starting to laugh at the end of her sentence. I join in with the laughter.
It felt good to laugh.
"Yeah-" I laugh some more, "So, friends?"
"Huh?" She looks at me confused. But I just wonder if we are friends or not.
"Guess." I say casually.
"Yeah, I guess we are friends. That is new, haven't had any one of those in forever, how about you?" She says with a smile. She is starting to open up to me!
"Me neither." I say with a smile as well. It feels nice to have a friend.
'It does, doesn't it?' Wait, what?!
"Another part of my quirk, I can transmit my thoughts to others." She tells me.
"Ohhhhh, hehe." I say with a slight chuckle.
"I guess we are here." She says. Just then I realize that we were already at Adera Middle School.
"Well, I guess I will talk to you later?.." I said walking away.
"Wait, I have an idea." This perked my interest. "We can communicate with my quirk, that way everyone will continue to ignore me, and people don't yell at you for making a friend."
"Ok, sounds good!" I tell her, she really is good, she knew I was nervous.
"Ok, just try to stay within twenty feet of me or else it won't work, remember?" She reminded me.
"Yeah, of course. Thanks Yasuko!" I say then smiles and starts to walk inside, me not too far behind her.
Yasuko was nice. That makes me happy.
(Kit Yasuko's POV)
I have a friend now...
Well that is new. I kind of like it. But still, I would rather go unnoticed and practically invisible over being bullied anyday, and the people here wouldn't hesitate to make my life a living hell if they found out I was friends with 'Deku.'
But boy were they wrong about him.
He was nice, and obviously didn't deserve the hand he was dealt. The only reason he is bullied is because he doesn't have a quirk. I see that now.
I was actually nervous it was because of his personality or something. Luckily it wasn't. If anything his personality could be described as a literal cinnamon roll. But that is just the surface.
I just met him, but from his thoughts I have learned that he his als analytical and smart. He would make a good hero, or vigilante, or villain for that matter.
I am not usually this 'happy' honestly. Midoriya was a good friend. That is for sure.
RING
And there is the bell that would decide the fates of everyone in the building.
Why am I like this?
(Mini Time Skip Brought To You By Todoroni's Conspiracy Board)
It is about to be lunch, good. I don't eat breakfast in the morning, so what don't judge me, but because of this I am usually kind of hungry at lunch. Also, this gives me the opportunity to talk to Midoriya again.
RING
Speak of the devil.
I get up and head towards the lunchroom. I got there late, as usual, due to the insane amount of students clustered at the door. By the time I actually got in, the food was all gone. Only scraps were left.
Well, screw lunch, who needs food anyway.
I then realize how many thoughts I was hearing. I felt a headache starting to form. Great.
'Finally I got my food!'
'I wonder where my friends are at?'
'What is this?'
'When did the cafeteria get so crowded?'
'Why is it so loud'
'...'
'...'
'...'
'I hope Yasuko is ok..'
There it is. The person I was looking for, or listening for in this case.
'Midoriya, you ok?' I thought to him.
'Yeah, I am good. Did you end up getting lunch, there wasn't a lot left when I sat down.' He thought.
'Nope, but I will be fine, I can just eat after school.' I reply through my thoughts.
'Ok then, well what should we talk about?'
'Do I look like the person that socializes often?'
'Honestly? No.'
'Exactly.'
'Oh. Well, what is your favourite food?' He asked with his thoughts.
'Well, I would have to say steamed dumplings, but I only have those on occasion. Other than that, I would ramen.' I answer truthfully. (This is me irl)
'Cool! Mine is katsudon.'
'Yum. Do you have it often?'
'Yeah, my mom makes it!'
'Cool.' I reply.
'Do you like music?' He asks me.
'Yeah, what about you?'
'Yup! I don't really have a preference though.'
'Same here, my taste in music is all over the place.'
'The problems of not knowing what your quote on quote taste in music is.'
'Did you just say "quote on quote"?' I ask, I say that as well, so it was kind of strange to hear someone else say it.
'Yeah, is there a problem with that?' He responds. So he does have some sass.
'No, I say that too sometimes, hehe. I see that you have some sass along with your cinnamon roll-ness.'
'What?!'
'I called you a cinnamon roll, get over it.'
'Stahp, I am gonna start laughing and people are gonna look at me like I am crazy!'
'Sorry~' I say, not really sorry.
RING
'Already?!' He thought, along with every other damn student in the cafeteria.
'Welp, I have a headache now, so I probably won't be able to talk for a while. Don't worry though, it isn't your fault. See you later!' I thought to him, then I walk out of the cafeteria, getting first because one, I didn't have to clean up my mess because I didn't have lunch, and two, because I wasn't talking to anybody, so nothing was slowing me down.
I wandered around a bit, because if I didn't then I would be first to class, and if I was first to class, then people would know I exist. I honestly have no idea why I am so fixated on having people not know about me, maybe because I am afraid that they will judge my quirk? Probably.
After around two minutes of taking my time, I finally walk into the classroom to see around ten students already there. Phew, I usually take three minutes to get here, I was worried that no one would be here.
I then walked to my seat in the back corner by the window, and waited for class to start. I had a headache, so I was NOT in the mood to deal with other student's crap. But alas, it comes with the quirk.
What if I just fell asleep?
No one would notice, and I am a light sleeper, so the bell would wake me up. Plus, I am ahead in this class...
Yeah, I am doing it.
(Izuku Midoriya's POV)
My conversation with Yasuko was nice. She had a pretty sarcastic attitude, and that was fun. Apparently she called me a 'cinnamon roll' too. And she discovered that I have some sass.
I say we are going to become great friends.
I look over to her only to realize that she is asleep. Huh, she did say she had a headache. I wonder if she does this often. I will have to ask her eventually. I then look up at the teacher as he starts talking.
This is gonna take a while.
(Another Time Skip because I don't want to write what they are learning about lol)
Ok, it is now towards the end of my last class of the day, right? Yeah.
Kacchan is ebin annoying and arrogant. Like usual.
The teacher has started an uproar by mentioning future careers, and then saying that he already knows that everyone in the room wanted to become a hero. Like duh, that is obvious.
All the students except for me and Yasuko are showing off their *cough* pitiful *cough* quirks. Uh-huh, another common thing.
All of this is pretty normal, but the thing that really annoys me is the fact that the teacher called me out. Yeah, I want to go to U.A., and yeah, I applied, that doesn't mean that you have to tell the entire class, especially when half of said class bullies me!
And that is why I am currently on the floor, scooting away from Kacchan whilst stuttering out random stuff in my defense. My desk had been blown up, and Kacchan was spewing out reasons that I shouldn't go to U.A.
It hurt.
More than I would ever admit.
After the whole 'fiasco' the bell rang and I packed up my things but was stopped by Kacchan. I couldn't deal with this right now. I just wanted to go home and listen to music, maybe talk to Yasuko some more. But no, he just had to ruin my day.
"What do you want Kacchan?" I ask him, with an annoyed tone might I add.
"Don't even try getting into U.A., got that Deku?!" He yells, burning my shoulder. I wanted to tell him that it is illegal to use your quirk in public, let alone hurt someone with it, so bad right now.
"Leave me alone Kacchan." I say with my head down. He started talking more but a different voice was all I heard.
'Don't listen to them, they're just being jerks. Putting down others to make himself feel better.' Yasuko thought to me. She must still be in the room.
'I will try.' I replied so she knows I heard her.
Kacchan and his lackeys starting walking towards the exit, seemingly not noticing Yasuko. I was about to sigh in relief, but Kacchan wasn't done talking yet.
"Hey Deku, there is a way that you can be a hero." He said, this caught my attention. "Why don't you pray you get a quirk in your next life and take a swan dive off the roof."
Before I could answer someone else did.

Hehehehehe I am leaving you all on a cliffhanger!!
