Chapter Text
Izuku finds himself waking up to an empty house. Rare but good, at least he doesn't need to watch how he walks or makes noise today. His mom most likely got stuck up at the bar again. Which would usually be bad, but he actually likes when that happens. Time to himself more...
Getting ready was a hassle, quick reminder of what he did the night before struck him when he slid his pants up to fast. "Ow, fuck that hurt!" he cursed at himself. He made some breakfast, packed a lunch and hid it well in his backpack so no one would steal or ruin it. He walked out of his home, locking the door behind him and making sure the spare key was still hidden under the door mat, in case his mother came home without hers again.
11:30 Am
Class was... decent today, Katsuki only yelled at Izuku when he came into the classroom and one of Katsuki's "friends" was absent. Only 30 minutes to go for this period and he's off to lunch! The only time he's really ever left alone. *Tick* *Tock*

'God just let the dam class end!' Izuku says quietly to himself.
"Izuku! Pay attention or I'll send you to the principle for disrupting the class!" The teacher yells out.
"I- wha-t?" He asks, eyebrows farrowing in confusion.
"Oh, don't play dumb Deku" Katsuki says loudly laughing. "Your mumbling is soooo distracting." He continues.
Izuku goes quiet. He wants to say something, he tries but he can't.
"Good, now to continue with the lesson-" The teacher says. His voice slowly getting quieter as Izuku stares blankly at his desk. 'So stupid. So fucking stupid you can't say one single thing you idiot. How much of a loser can you be!?' He yells at himself internally.
*RING....RING....RIN-*
Izuku is pushed out of his thoughts as the bell rings loudly indicating that class has ended. 'Finaly" Izuku mummers to himself before grabbing his backpack and quickly walking out of the class. Its best to be fast. That means no one follows him so then he never gets caught on the roof.
Izuku finds himself unable to open the door to the rooftop.
"You have... to be SHITTING ME." He says angerly. They locked to doors. Which means that Izuku needs to find a whole new place to eat before someone finds him. The bathrooms are a no go. People are always in there regardless of what time it is. And the janitor's closet is always being used so that's a no. The only place he can think of that is hidden and no one is around much is the bleachers. Well behind them, they don't close so he would be safe from getting crushed and not many people know that you can actually get under there so it's perfect.
Izuku turns around and heads to the bleachers. Thankfully no one was there just like he hoped. He gets under and begins to eat. But not long after he's settled, he hears footsteps around and then a poof of purple hair as he locks eyes with someone he's never seen before.
"Oh! u-uhm..." The stranger says in a kind of raspy and sleepy voice.
"Ah! u-mm Is this your spot? I- uhm didn't mean to take it o-or anything I- I mean I just came here and-" Izuku starts to spur out an apology but gets cut off.
"Oh no your good... Umm I didn't know people knew this spot..." The guy says sitting down next to Izuku.
"Me too, I mean it is pretty hard to get into here..."
"I come here every day,, I take it your bad with people to?"
"Kind of?"
"Hmm... You seem familiar..." The guy says examining Izuku.
"Oh, um really?" Izuku says, 'No please be a miss understanding...' he thinks to himself.
"I don't know you just seem familiar." The guy says bluntly before continuing.
"I'm Shinsou Hitoshi"
"Oh, um Midoriya Izuku" he stammers out.
There was an awkward silence for a while. No words, so Izuku just continued eating.
"Ohhhhh now I remember where I've seen you. You're the boy that goes on the rooftop huh?" Shinsou says.
Izuku freezes. Someone has seen him on the roof before? No that's not right. He made sure no one was around.
"Ah yes I tend to go there when lunch time hits. It was blocked off today though..." He says trying not to sound stressed but fails miserably at it.
"Hmm, well I heard they are doing reconstruction on it" Shinsou replies, taking out his lunch.
"oh... um, do you mind if I like... stay here? Like you know tomorrow and stuff?" Izuku asks, internally facepalming himself for not being able to just explain in.
"I don't see an issue." Shinsou says not looking towards Izuku.
"And another question you don't have to answer it or anything. But does your voice have something to do with your quirk?"
Shinsou stiffens.
"Like your voice is raspy and a little deeper but it's still smooth. Voice quirks tend to do things like that to peoples vocals, so I was just wondering." Izuku starts to ramble.
"You're a smart one arnt you..." Shinsou says sternly.
"W-well, it's kind of a hobby for me.... I really like the idea of quirks. Like how they work and how they change someone from another. I like to analyze them. And heroes I really like heroes. Though a lot I preferably like are underground heroes so do those even count? I think they coun-" He starts to go off.
"You're defiantly a talker... What underground heroes do you like though? I'm curious on what you know." Shinsou cuts off.
"Oh well I'm really fond of the pro hero Eraserhead!"
"Really, me too.."
"WAIT ACTUALY!?" Izuku manages to yell. "Oh, I'm so sorry I didn't mean to do that."
"Your good" Shinsou says rubbing his ears. "Don't do that again though."
"Sorry!" Izuku winces out.
*RING....RING...RIGNG!*
"Wow that was fast..." Shinsou says standing up.
"Yeah... But I guess time does go faster when you're distracted." Izuku replies still sitting on the ground.
"See you later then?"
"Ye-yeah see you"
Izuku stands up wincing. "Tch, oww."
"You okay?" Shinsou says turning around.
"Yep!" Izuku quickly replies gripping his thighs a little. "I'm fine, just uh... leg issues"
"Oh, sorry to hear that" Shinsou says turning back around and gets out.
Now alone under the bleachers he has time to think.
"Did I just make a friend?"
