Chapter 7
Midoriya let out a silent breath as Shinso followed him. He decided to go to his spare apartment near UA, one he used when he was too tired to go home or just wanted a change of scenery. It was a 25 minute walk at a slow pace, but since Midoriya was with someone in a UA uniform he walked quickly, ended up there in 10 minutes. He unlocked the door and pulled the purple haired teen inside, startling the tired boy. He slipped his cafe sweatshirt off and put it on a coat rack standing on the door. He went to the hall closet and rummaged through some boxes before pulling out a very oversized light gray tank top and oversized sweatpants. He pulled Shinso into a hallway and handed him the clothes. " Change into these. It would be suspicious for you to wear a UA uniform outside when school is in session" he signed before shoving the boy into the bathroom. Midoriya opened the door in front of the bathroom and rummaged in the closet. He noticed that his vigilante hoodie was laying right on his desk and his hissed to himself. He shoved it in a dresser and pulled out a completely black hoodie. As he slipped it over his slim figure he saw the bathroom door open.
Out stepped Shinso wearing the clothes which thankfully fit the boy. He was more muscular than Midoriya expected but he didn't care. "So... What are we doing?" Shinso asked while scratching the back of his neck. The purple haired boy met his gaze before looking at a picture displayed on the wall. The smaller teen grabbed the photo and handed it to the taller one, as the boy seemed hesitant to enter his room. Shinso's gaze looked at the long green haired women and the tall black haired man. A child was held between their arms seemingly the perfect mix of the two. The family wore bright smiles as the child held up a heart piece of paper reading a date. As Shinso looked up Midoriya was across the room picking up a few flowers that were strewn about. Shinso's gaze took a look around the room before stepping in, waiting to see if the other boy would stop him. "Midoriya.. You didn't answer my question." He said quietly while sitting on the bed. Midoriya looked up and sat on a chair in the corner of the room before starting to sign "What do you want to do I don't really care."
Shinso let out a sigh and pulled out his phone. Midoriya slipped a pen into his hand and started to twirl it around, but it ended up dropping and made a loud click on the floor. The purple haired teen looked at the pen and the carpeted floor. His eyes drifted off to a reddish-brown stain on the floor. It was quickly covered by a black sock belonging to Midoriya, the boy moving his foot to cover it. Shinso took a deep breath and went back to scrolling on his phone. He continued browsing until he was hit by a pen on his arm. He looked up with a glare, before softening it when Midoriya looked scared. "Cat Cafe?" Midoriya signed awkwardly. The purple haired teen stood up from the bed nodding, quickly exiting the room. The green haired teen got up, grabbing a spare wallet he had and slipping it into his pocket. The small teen soon walked to the kitchen to see Shinso gaping at a wall. The other teen was looking a pictures of the younger Midoriya, one who was happy and bright eyed. There was one picture with Midoriya happily holding up a Present Mic figure, Midoriya remembering that was his first figure of the hero. The small teen saw Shinso tiredly observing him with a side eye.
Midoriya simply went over to the door and slipped on the shoes that lay there. He dug into his hoodie's pocket grabbing the forgotten phone and transferring it to his current hoodie. "Oh wait, before you put your shoes on can you grab that brown bag there? It has cat stuff it I'm supposed to give." MIdoriya signed while Shinso stopped looking at the pictures. "Can I open it?" The teen ask while grabbing it earning a shrug. The taller teen opened it and pulled a small catnip pillow. Midoriya chuckled as he took the bag, waiting on the other teen to put his shoes back on. Midoriya sort of wished he could have just taken a nap today but it would be rude for him to do so with his new guest. At least he didn't have to type everything on his phone, as Shinso knew sign language. Midoriya opened the door swiftly and exited it, Shinso following close behind. The brown bag was soon handed over to the green haired boy.
The pair walked through the streets, Midoriya's pace slower than before with the tired boy easily walking by him. Midoriya kept moving away from the boy, a good 6 inches between them at most points. Shinso gave an annoyed glance at someone they passed but that was ended by a glass door being opened. The familiar smell of honeysuckle and dogwood filled Midoriya's nose as he gave a small smile. He slipped off his shoes as he heard the patting of socked covered feet hitting the floor. "Welcome to the Neko Caf- ZU CHAN! You aren't working today!" Rini pouted placing her fists on her sides. Shinso stared at the blue haired girl, quirking an eyebrow. "I didn't know you worked here Midoriya." He stated, slipping off the shoes to be in the white socks. "For once Im not working. I want cat pat" Midoriya signed causing Rini to pout again. She pulled the boy's baby cheeks and brought him up a step. "Are you seriously signing again? Come onnnn I thought you gave up doing that here." She complained while Midoriya pointed a thumb towards Shinso. "Fineeeee whatever, keep your voice secret from Bailey's favorite customer."
Midoriya went around the counter and put in the money for 4 hours of the cat cafe. That probably was excessive but Midoriya didn't mind. "Oi you know you don- nevermind you already paid didn't you?" She asked before opening a baby gate used to keep the cats inside. Shinso's footsteps could be heard as he walked into the cat area and sat down on a random part of the floor. Midoriya silently entered the room, closing the gate as quietly as possible before having cats all leap at him.
A particular brave cat jumped up onto his curls, slinking itself over Midoriya's head. Two other cats climbed towards Midoriya's shoulders happily handing there. Another cat slithered into his hoodie's pocket and perched there. A final cat jumped into his arms and meowed happily. A pout came across the cat covered boy's face as Suki emerged to take pictures of them. Shinso merely stared with a shocked gaze before his hand was batted by a tail. "Right, so since you can't sign I can introduce these cat's to Shinso!" Rini chirped with a bright smile. "The one in Zu-Chan's arms is Hypothermia. Zu found him at 3am in winter and the kiddo got hypothermia from saving the lil guy. The one one his left shoulder we call Dipp as her paws look like they are dipped in colorings. The one in his pocket is Inky, he is an inky black/brown color. Also his fur poofs out like how ink bleeds through paper. UHH The one on his right shoulder is we call Sienna because she is that raw sienna color." Rini finished, not mentioning the cat perched on the fluffy boy's head. "The one on his head is Tipsy, mainly because the tips of the cat are different colors and Rini found her while 'slightly tipsy'" Suki quoted, having the camera rest around her neck. Rini held a slight blush on her face as Midoriya continued standing there.
Shinso stared at the cat covered boy, continuing to pet the two cats that roamed around him. He watched the green haired boy extract himself from the cats, Tipsy being one that was difficult to get off. The floof brought over a stool next to Shinso and took a seat. A few cats came over as Midoriya brought out the bag contents, the catnip pillow peaking Baily's interest. She happily clawed at the pillow while laying on Shinso's lap. Inky came over to bat at a toy mouse, one that look suspiciously familiar. Midoriya had taken out his phone to take a picture of Inky, but also took a picture of Shinso and the cat. Soon a very small kitten waddled over to Midoriya and Shinso, mewling at them curiously. Rini popped out of nowhere to hand the purple haired teen a cat wand, also plopping cat eared headbands on them. While Midoriya gave a look of 'are you serious mate', Shinso watched the cat god.
"Rini, how come I have never seen your quirk?" He asked suddenly. Like Shinso had gone to this establishment for like 2 years and the girl had seen his and Suki's quirks in action. She turned around with an evil grin and leaned on a table. "Well dear Shinso~ My quirk is quite bland. It changes the smell around be depending on my mood!" She chirped before having a dark gleer on her face. The air around them thickened and Midoriya's hand latched onto his sweatshirt. The air started to smell like a powerful cinnamon mixed with rosemary. The two scents latched together and created a smell that was both scary and effectively awakening. A teaspoon was launched at Rini's head, Suki in the corner trembling slightly. "Oh- Um wow. So both of you have quirks with emotions." Shinso dulley said as the air around him became breathable again."Yep! Sorry Zu-Chan, I know you don't like it when I do that. Would you wanna be calmed or happy right now?" The tall girl said crouching by the boy in the chair. "Calmed. Please don't give me a heart attack." He whimpered quietly, still grasping his sweatshirt. The air was soon a smooth lavender and vanilla scent, the cats seemed to have slowly come back out of their hiding spots.
The floofy haired duo sat silently while petting and playing with cats, but soon ended up with Shinso laying on the ground asleep with four cats on his torso. The sight gave Midoriya an idea as he brought out his phone.

TheAllKnowingBrat: Sorry Eraserhead and Present Mic, I killed your son.
TheAllKnowingRat: Are you joking? I can't tell sometimes.
TheAllKnowingBrat: :)
PencilTopper: Welp at least he died surrounded by cats.
Pencil: SHOTA NO.
TheAllKnowingRat: Well are you having fun Midoriya?
TheAllKnowingBrat: No. I hate being with some random person
TheAllKnowingRat: Too bad, oh well guess you have to accept it for now. Remember to bring him back at like 3:45 so he can be dismissed at 4:20
Pencil: Was that intentional by the way?
TheAllKnowingRat: :)
Midoriya let out a sweet laugh as he left the teacher's chatroom, going back to taking pictures of the cats. An hour past of cats roaming around before Inky went to lay on Shinso's face. The green haired boy could stop laughing as the other teen was smothered in blackish-brown fur. The teen started to wake up at the sound of Midoriya on the ground laughing as he sat up. And oh man it was a sight. Midoriya's cheeks were flushed from smiling so much, and that smile was wide. The smaller teen was running a hand through his hair and used the other to wrap around his stomach. Shinso watched the boy, a small smile appearing on his face as he heard the angelic laugh.
Midoriya was someone he talked to for less than a day.
GreenFloof was someone who he occasionally chatted with on an insomnia filled night.
Izuku Midoriya was the person he fell in love with from hearing his laugh and seeing his smile.
And god, he fell hard
