Chapter 12


Smiling gently to myself, I lean against the doorway of the twins' bedroom door and watch as they get themselves ready for the day. Both of them vibrating with excitement as they grab their red sneakers that represent the iconic red shoes that Deku wears constantly before sprinting to the front door to slide them on and get their jackets on. A giggle leaves my lips as the pair of them sit on the seat beside the front door, sliding into their sneakers with big grins plastered across their lips.

Once finished with putting their sneakers on, Ryoku and Kōri then look toward me expectantly, pointing toward the coat rack that they can't physically reach. Releasing a small giggle, I grab Ryoku's Dynamight hoodie from the coat hanger and then I grab Kōri's Deku hoodie before helping them into their hoodies and making sure that their t shirts underneath isn't bunched up.

Leaning against the kitchen counter, already clad in his casual wear, stood Shoto. The male ready to take his twin sons out for the day to spend time with them. Shoto hadn't actually had father and son time with the boys for a good while, so he was taking them to the movies and then out for lunch before taking them to their uncle's house for a play date. The boys couldn't be more excited about today.

They loved spending time with their father after all.

With the boys ready and waiting for Shoto, I run my fingers through my hair and head into the kitchen with a smile. Shoto nods toward me, sending me a fond smile, before pocketing his phone and clearing his throat. The older Todoroki male kisses his wife's cheek, holding her close for a quick hug before heading toward the twins and grabbing his car keys.

"Bye boys! Have fun with daddy!" Momo exclaims, kissing her sons on their foreheads and ruffling their hair, "Mama will see you soon okay? I love you!"

"We love you too!" The boys exclaim in unison, smiling brightly toward their mother who waves them off as they skip out of the house toward the car that Shoto unlocks for them.

Gently smiling, Momo shuts the door behind Shoto and turns toward me. The black haired woman having a rather excited smile on her lips which makes my stomach turn nervously. What was she planning? What was the real plan behind the twins going out today? Are her and Shoto planning something? Is something going on that I don't know?...

In the middle of my mental questioning, Momo takes my hands in hers and leads me toward the kitchen with a bright smile. Her black eyes glisten with excitement as she sits me down and claps her hands in a buoyant fashion while jumping up and down. Okay... something must be going on...

I can feel it...

Arching a nervous brow, I sit on my hands. Not wanting to begin stressing over something that probably isn't that bad. After all, Momo would never put me in a situation that I wouldn't like. I could trust her. I can trust that she won't put me anywhere or make me do anything that'll make me implode on sight.

"So! Since the boys are out for the day, I was wondering if you'd want to spend the day with me," Momo begins, resting her hands on my shoulders with a bright smile on her features as she buzzes with excitement, "The girls and I are having a big lunch today and I'd love for you to join!"

"W - what?" I stammer nervously, watching with wide eyes as Momo giggles gently and pokes my nose as I gawk at her, my jaw hitting the floor, "Y - you can't be serious right?... Y - you want me to... to be with you and... g - girls?!"

Was she serious?! She wanted me to spend time with her and her friends. Her friends, the pro heroes, by the way! Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god! What heroes would be there? This is so amazing! Oh my god! I get to meet all these amazing people! These people that I have looked up to and admired ever since I watched them on tv at the sports festivals and they became heroes.

But what if I screw up?...

Suddenly, as negative thoughts, choke my throat, I look down at my lap nervously and fiddle with the hem of my shirt. What if I trip over and majorly embarrass myself? What if I accidentally spill something over them? What if I say something I shouldn't? What if they don't like me? What if I don't like them? Oh my god?!

What if I cry?!

Trying not to allow my thoughts to cloud my judgement, I look toward Momo in hopes that her positive nature will radiate my way. A small smile plays on my lips, despite my hands shaking underneath my thighs, as I watch the black haired girl go on and on and on about what her and her friends to every so often to catch up. The way her eyes shone when she spoke about her friends made my heart squeeze gently.

"Yeah! It'll be fun!" Momo exclaims happily, oblivious to my brain imploding and my whole body shutting down, "Trust me! It'll be a blast!"

"But... they're all pro heroes," I hum gently, trying not to curl in on myself to make myself look smaller as I watch her, "I'm gonna stick out like a sore thumb... I - I won't fit in with you guys..."

"Honey, we're normal people just like you," Momo reasons, rubbing my arm gently as I send her a nervous smile and clear my throat, "Look at it like it's a couple of girls wanting to hang out and have lunch together, it's nothing out of the norm, nothing you can't handle,"

"B - but... you're all..." I hum, gesturing to Momo gently as if to say she's beautiful and amazing and then I gesture to myself with a small frown, "And I'm... me..."

"(Y/n), they will love you, I promise you," she reassures me, watching as I nervously rock side to side in the chair while biting my lip, "There'll only be seven of us, eight including you,"

"Seven?!" I parrot anxiously, "Seven?! That's a lot of you to one of me! I - I don't want to intrude on your group... don't feel like you have to include me because I look after your boys... I - I'll just go back to my apartment to st -"

"(Y/n), deep breath," She reminds me, smiling gently as I take a deep breath and then release it with a small hum, "I have been speaking to them about you for a while and they would love to meet you, especially with the possible romance between you and Bakugo!"

"B - but that's not..." I try to reason before biting my lip nervously and taking another deep breath to calm down my thumping heart, "I just don't want to make a bad impression..."

"You won't, I promise," Momo reassures me, sending me a small smile as I lean back into the chair and hum, "It'll just be Uravity, Froppy, Earphone Jack, Pinky, Invisible Girl, Battle Fist and I. They're all lovely and I promise you that they won't judge you,"

After mulling it over in my head a thousand times, trying to weigh the pros and the cons of me actually going on this lunch trip, I finally come to a conclusion. Slowly, I pull my hands out from under my legs and take a deep breath, I nod toward Momo who squeals at the top of her lungs and claps her hands giddily. Her eyes lighting up like a child's at Christmas at the fact that I'm coming to meet her friends.

Her friends. The Pro Heroes.

Taking a nervous breath, I run my fingers through my hair to try and calm my nerves. Oh my god! I don't know whether to be excited or worried! Should I go back home and change or just go in what I'm wearing? What am I supposed to wear?! Oh god! Oh god! Oh god!

"Sweetie, I can see you spiralling," Momo points out making me shake my head and clear my throat with a nervous smile while rubbing the back of my neck, "Everything will be okay, we'll have fun! Trust me on that, you look great and they'll love you, I promise you,"

"Yeah, thank you," I hum gently, giggling gently as Momo smiles to herself and goes to grab her coat, "So where are we going?"

"We're going to the afternoon tea place in Hosu," she explains, grabbing her hairbrush and running the brush throw her black locks while I stand there awkwardly watching her get ready, "We're going out for some tea and cake,"

"Is it expensive?" I ask nervously, biting my lip as I realise how expensive afternoon tea can be and I'm not exactly the richest person ever, "Just because I need to know if I need to bring my credit ca -"

"Sweetie, I'm paying for you," Momo replies making me freeze and look up at her with wide eyes, about to tell her that she doesn't need to pay for me before stopping as she holds her hand up to stop me, "It's a treat from Shoto and I to you for looking after the twins and doing so much for us, don't worry about paying,"

"Are you sure?" I ask, still ruffling through my purse with a small hum, not wanting to just let her pay for me, "I - I can use my credit card to pay for myself, it's okay, really -"

Momo giggles gently and rubs my back with a soft smile as she nods gently, her black eyes full of nothing but kindness as she pulls my purse away from me and sets it on the island. The girl pulling me into a hug making me smile and snuggle into her hold with a smile.

"Look, if you get too overwhelmed or if you feel uncomfortable, I'm here for you, okay? I really think you could be a great addition to our group,"...

"Really?... Okay, okay, let's go!"...

"Great! Let's go!"...
