POV Izuku Midoriya

Today is the day of the first real meeting involving the scorchers. My mom hadn't said anything about it since the day we went to UA together, and I hadn't asked about it either.
The morning of this day I was quietly packing my bag in my room. I didn't need much. Just a pen, my notebook and some drinks just to be sure.

After I did that I lifted my bag and slowly opened the door of my room. I looked around, trying to see or hear my mom anywhere, but she didn't seem to be anywhere around. I could sneak off quietly. And so I did.

I tiptoed towards the front door and bit my lip. Normally I wouldn't do these kinds of things. But this was something important. It would help me to be even more ready for the hero work and I was certain they didn't ask me to help for nothing. I couldn't just let them down.

I reached for the doorknob, and just at the moment I touched it I heard a voice from behind me that made me sigh. My attempt had failed.

"Where do you think you're going Izuku?".

I closed my eyes and then opened them again to turn around slowly. I tried to look as innocent as I could.

"School..?", I softly asked. But it sounded more like a question than an answer.

"I told you it wasn't a good idea and I still hold on to that opinion", my mom continued determined.

"Mom I...".
I didn't know what to say. Or how to put it into words. The best thing was to just speak my mind.. but would she understand?

"They didn't ask me to come for nothing..", I began. I took a deep breath.
"This is what I'm going to do when I'm really a hero..and..I can't just let them down like this..".
I looked at his feet and then at my mother again.

She took a deep breath through her nose and seemed to think really deeply.

"We won't do any fighting today.. just a meeting.. to talk about it..".
"And tomorrow is just a normal school day..", I tried adding.

She bit her lip really worried. "I.. just want you to take care of yourself. Watch yourself.. If something happens to you only once during this investigation I want you to stop it", she then said a little demanding, but in a mother-like way.

My eyes lit up when she said that. She approved! She did! I tried to hide my excitement for a bit since I saw she wasn't done talking yet.

"And I want All might to declare this to me. Why they involve young students in this".

I nodded quickly.
"I'll definitely tell him that! And I'll call you when I know more!", I promised.

My mom nodded and I got a big bright smile on my face.
"Thank you mom", I said, meaning every single word of it.

My mom looked at me and I could see a little smile on her face as well. I knew she wanted me to be happy. But I also understood why she was so worried. She was my mom after all, and that made me her son. So without saying anything I hugged her. I just hugged her tightly, trying to tell her it was going to be okay, especially today.
When we let go of each other she had slight tears in her eyes.

"Take care of yourself Izuku.. I don't want you to get hurt like that anymore.. Even though you live in the dorms now..I can't stand you getting injured so badly again..", she said as I opened the door.

I turned to her one more time before I left.
"I will take care of myself. That's a promise mom", I said with a smile, reassuring her that is was okay again.

Then I walked outside and closed the door behind me slowly, before I started running off to school. I was already late now, so I should hurry up. My feet were tapping on the pavement really quickly and I turned around corners panting softly. My bag was shaking on my bad, which made it a little harder to run, but I managed.
I arrived after somewhat 10 minutes and quickly ran upstairs to the right room.
It was the teacher's room, so I knew where it was right away, since I came there sometimes to see All might.

I opened the door quickly and closed it again, only to see almost everyone looking at me as soon as I entered. Everyone except Todoroki and Nejire. I saw some new faces from my class as well. Some that weren't in the first meeting. Asui, Kirishima and Kacchan. I swallowed quickly. I couldv'e expected Kacchan to be here. He would be a strong teammate. I just hoped he would agree with the plans that were going to be made involving the mission.

I sat down and took a deep breath. Every teacher from the first meeting was there, and this time All might was there too. I remembered I needed to talk to him before I left, to tell him that he should talk to my mom. Then I looked around a little more, until my eyes got stuck on that beautiful smile. I felt my cheeks warming up and I automatically smiled too.
Uraraka.

She somehow always made me very happy. She gave me courage and she always helped me with anything. At that time.. I liked to tell myself she made my heart float.. She made my heart float.
