"We're all fine" I insisted

"What happened" She asked

"Some creep was harassing Mika" Ichiro muttered under his breath, I didn't think that Uraraka heard him at first until I saw the way Uraraka looked at him as he picked at his food. I realized that was really the most he's said to her specifically he usually just talks to his sisters and we just happen to over hear.

"And someone REALLY has opinions and is not afraid to vocalize it" Emika rolled her eyes

"They deserve punishment" he pushed around the food on his tray

"And Villains don't?" Emiko asked trying to push him into a corner

"Perverts like that should be treated just like a villain it's disgraceful and mean" He pouted Uraraka snorted and burst out laughing

"Sorry sorry I know you've got a strong opinion on the matter and you were giving a speech or something and what not but that last part was so childish" she laughed.  Ichiro's face flushed a bright pink

"I'm proud of you though Ichi you actually spoke" Emiko slapped him on the back encouragingly 

"So it appears he has a voice?" Iida joked pushing his glasses up.  Ichiro blushed even redder.  I noticed him tense up turning into a statue

"Come on you wimp you were doing well for once" Emiko whined

"Yeah Ichi don't wimp out now you were so close to an actual conversation" Emika added putting her hand on his shoulder

"Oh don't stop your heart now" She exclaimed

"WHAT!" Iida exclaimed, Emika looked over at him confused before realizing what she said

"oh oh no no it's fine he can stop his heartbeat for like thirty seconds I don't know if he can do it whenever or if its just used as like a defense mechanism when his heartbeat speeds up to a certain point but it sure is annoying Ichi" she accused

"Sometimes it's the only way to calm down" he insisted relaxing a bit

"So you can do it whenever" Emika exclaimed

"Yes" he shouted, I noticed a hint of red flashing in his eyes like how it was in the hallway bu the locker room when he snapped at me.  Emika stopped her shoulders drooping.  She looked over at Emiko concerned, Emiko whispered something to her and I just managed to make out what she was saying

"He's already had a panic attack today it got pretty bad lets hope it doesn't happen again" there was a long pause before Emiko added "What if it gets as bad as last time" my heart skipped a beat.  I wanted to know more information but I didn't want to pry.  Lunch time ended and we all went back to class

*time skip because I'm lazy: End of class*

"Hey my mom wanted to know if you three wanted to have dinner at our place tonight it's fine if you can't" I asked scratching at the back of my neck nervously.  Ichiro was still packing up and Emiko was waiting for him

"Sure that sounds fun" Emiko answered right away before Ichiro had a chance to say anything she leaned down to whisper in his ear "we don't have to wait for mom to leave this way" There was so much that I didn't know about those three and there was a lot that they kept to themselves and I didn't want to pry.  After we went and got Emika as soon as we left school it started to rain.  Emiko shared an umbrella with Emika and I used my own.  Ichiro though stood without an umbrella continuing to walk like the rain was nothing.  It might have just been me but he looked calm.

"Ichi you are going to get a cold" Emiko scolded

"I don't care" he responded firmly

"I know you like the rain but if you get ill mom will blame us" she insisted but he didn't even look like he was listening.  He tilted his chin up towards the sky for a few seconds before he continued walking

"I don't care" he repeated, Emiko sighed but continued walking with no fuss.  We got to my apartment and I shook out my umbrella outside the door.  Emiko did the same

"Ichiro-" I started but Emiko held up her hand to shush me

"Let him be he'll come inside when he's ready just leave the door open a crack he'll wander in eventually though I doubt we'll notice he's pretty quiet" Emiko explained, I looked concerned at Ichiro who was standing just out from under the porch overhang standing with his head tilted up towards the sky the rain dripping onto his face rolling down his cheeks before falling down on the sidewalk next to him.  I looked at Emika for reassurance she nodded with a smile.  I nodded back a worried feeling in my gut.  I led them inside leaving Ichiro out in the rain for now

"Izuku is that you?" My mom asked

"Yeah I brought friends over for dinner" I exclaimed

"Oh how nice" My mom came out of the kitchen looking at Emiko and Emika up and down "you two just moved here didn't you Izuku has been talking a lot about you

"Yeah well the three of us actually our brother Ichiro was the one who wanted to become a hero so we moved here for him" Emiko explained excitedly

"Where is your brother then?" Mom asked raising one eyebrow

"Oh he's still outside" Emika explained nonchalantly

"Goodness but its pouring out" My mom exclaimed looking out the window,  The rain had gotten harder, much harder

"He likes the rain" Emiko laughed shaking her head Mom still seemed concerned but didn't say anything else

"I'm Inko Midoriya by the way" she held out her hand and they both shook it

"Emiko" Emiko introduced

"And Emika" Emika added

"Oh such similar names and appearances" My mom cooed

"Wild huh?" Emiko joked 

"Well make yourselves at home I'll start dinner" Mom explained retreating into the kitchen to make dinner.  We sat down on the couch and after a few minutes of talking about school and other things I saw in the corner of my eye the door slowly open up.  I turned to see Ichiro sheepishly step inside his clothes were soaking wet clinging to his skin, his hair was matted to his head.  Along with that it just happened to be when my mom came in with a tray of tea

"Oh dear your soaking I'll get you a towel" she exclaimed setting the tray down on the coffee table hurrying off to the table.  She came back with a white fluffy towel handing it to him

"T-Thanks" He muttered his voice so quiet I could barely hear him

"Of course dear" my mom looked at him like she expected him to say something else but he didn't

"Ichiro I've got some clothes that are to big for me they'll probably fit you I can get them for you so you don't have to sit in wet clothes" I offered standing up from the couch

"Y-You don't have to do that for me" he started fidgeting with his hands

"I insist here follow me" I waved him over and he reluctantly followed me into my room.  I sifted through my closet until I found the light blue sweater and a pair of shorts which were much to big for me.  I handed them to him with a smile

"The bathroom is the first door on the left down the hallway so you can change" I instructed

"Thank you" he muttered taking the clothes from me his body trembling though I didn't know if it was from the cold or from his anxiety.  I went back into the living room and Ichiro went to the bathroom to change

"He's not a man of many words is he?" My mom asked with a smile

"He's a little shy" I started

"Well he's not very good at communicating with people and with his anxiety added with that it makes everything worse so I wouldn't expect him to say much" Emiko interrupted

"I see then" she thought for a moment but smiled I sat down on the couch.  Emiko came over and whispered in my ear

"I don't want you to feel bad or anything but I thought you should know that you probably made his anxiety a little worse by you being so kind to him don't worry about it though I just didn't want to leave you in the dark" she explained as Ichiro came out of the bathroom slowly like a frightened deer

"Here hon I can take those for you I'll put them in the dryer so that they'll be dry by the time you leave" my mom offered going over to him taking the wet clothes from him

"Oh" he looked down at his feet letting her take them from him.  since his hair was still wet it didn't fall in front of his face like it usually did.  My mom hurried off to the washroom.  Ichiro came over and sat down next to me his hands clasped in his lap nervously

"Sorry" he apologized keeping his head down

"Sorry for what?" I asked

"I've already been such a burden" he mumbled.  What Emiko said was true after all

"No you haven't you three are our guests and me and my mom both are thrilled to have some other people over for dinner" I insisted

"But-" He started

"Ichiro really, it's fine" I smiled at him reassuringly "It gets kind of lonely here anyways with just the two of us"

Emiko [POV]

I noticed Ichi was really starting to freak out.  I don't think that I was the only one who noticed but as usual he would be the last one to notice until it got really bad.  Midoriya continued to reassure him.  Ichi was starting to tremble it would get hard to calm him down by now.  What was the most concerning was that he was still flesh he hadn't turned into the wood on the floor.  Ichiro nervously felt around the couch around next to him looking for one of our hands but both me and Mika were sitting on chairs opposite him.  Inko came back into the room with a smile

"Help yourselves to some tea I made plenty" she exclaimed clapping her hands together

"thanks mom" Midoriya smiled back as Inko retreated back into the kitchen

"you guys want some tea?" Midoriya asked picking up the teapot

"Sure" I exclaimed

"Yes please" Mika smiled, Midoriya looked over at Ichi waiting for his answer

"Ichiro do you want any" He asked patiently, Ichiro nodded slowly.  Midoriya smiled pouring out four cups of tea.  I took two handing one to Mika.  Midoriya handed one to Ichiro before taking the last one for himself

"Thank you" Ichiro mumbled taking a sip

"It's kind of cold now but my mom makes the best tea" Midoriya commented proudly

"It's delicious much better than that weird tea that Ichi likes" Mika teased

"It's only black tea" He defended quietly

"The stuff tastes like when you bite into a fresh leaf in the summer and he doesn't even add sugar to it or anything" she exclaimed

"He's got the weirdest eating habits" I added shaking my head

"Who are you to judge" he mumbled trying to sound forceful but it sounded more like a whine.  Midoriya laughed

"You three fight over the weirdest things" he laughed

"This morning was about the pancakes" Mika rolled her eyes

"Oh don't get me started on the pancakes" I exclaimed

"What was that even about?" Midoriya raised one eyebrow

"He eats pancakes without syrup" I shouted

"I don't like sweet things" Ichi took another sip of tea

"We got other syrup for you one that's not as sugary" I insisted

"It tastes the same" he mumbled

Midoriya [POV]

I sort of understood the point of Emiko starting an argument with Ichiro.  It wasn't just for the sake of it I think she was trying to make him feel better.  Make him feel more comfortable here which I think was working Emika caught my eyes nodding towards Ichiro "Get him talking" she mouthed.  I nodded understanding

"Ichiro" I started unsure of where to go with the conversation.  He looked at me

"Yeah?" He asked his voice quiet again

"I saw you reading in class you were so absorbed in your book but you read so fast too" I insisted smiling kindly "How do you do it?"

"I like reading it's like an escape from reality it has been since I was a child" He shrugged setting the tea on the coffee table moving to sit on his knees picking his cup back up from the table

"Really Ichi?" Emiko complained

"What?" he asked "Its comfortable"

"You're a dork" she teased, Ichiro looked over at the window.  It was still raining and it only was getting harder.  Suddenly Emika's phone started to ring

"Excuse me" she muttered putting the phone to her ear

"Hey dad" she greeted, there was a bit of silence

"Yeah we're all together" she laughed "yes we're all still alive and in one piece" she took a sip of tea listening

"We're at a friends house we won't be home for dinner is that fine?" she paused her expression changing, she seemed concerned "Yeah I know mom has the day off that's one of the reasons that we thought it was a good idea so we didn't have to come home to listen to mom yell about anything and everything" she shook her head

"Ichi's fine dad" She laughed again "you really want proof?" she asked, with a sigh she handed the phone to Ichiro

"Dad wants to talk to you" she explained, Ichiro nodded putting the phone to his ear

Ichiro [POV]

"Ichiro how was your day?" Dad asked through the phone

"Fine" I replied

"I heard from your sister that you made a friend" I could hear the smile in his voice.  The one reason I hated phone calls was that I actually had to talk

"Yeah"

"That's good I'm proud of you I hope you have fun at your friends house and make sure you eat something so you don't get sick" he insisted

"Yeah I know" I took a sip of tea

"Bye Bye my weeping angel" he laughing knowing very well what he was doing

"I told you not to call me that I don't like it" I whined

"That's exactly why I call you that love you bye" he laughed

"Bye dad love you too" I sighed handing the phone back to Mika

"Weeping angel" Emi laughed

"Shut up" I cried out covering my face with my hands my cheeks burning red

"Why don't you like that it's a cool name" Mika asked hanging up the phone

"Its Embarrassing" I whined

"I think it's cute" Emi insisted making my cheeks burn even more

Midoriya [POV]

Ichiro covered his face with his hands his face a bright red.  'Weeping angel' that was a cool name.  It would be a perfect hero name for him though I kept those thought to myself.  After a little bit my mom came out of the kitchen wearing a smile

"Dinner's ready go wash your hands" she instructed clapping her hands together

"Kay mom" I stood up going to the bathroom.  The three of them followed me and we took turns washing our hands.

(A.N. sorry for the long chapter I got a bit carried away because I didn't know where to stop but 2500 words that doesn't seem like a lot to me but compared to the other chapters that's pretty long)
