Your not going to understand this until you get to the part but I just wanted to say that I actually like Mineta and that (despite his massive sex drive and weird desire to become a hero) he is a good and interesting character. I didn't like how I wrote him in this but it made for a more intresting story and shit.
Izuku swung his leg round quickly in a precise rounhouse kick, the wind whistling in his ears with hast movements. The cold air nipped at his freckled cheeks and dusted the gold splattered skin in a light, rosy pink. Light comming from windows on the dorms left a bright enough surrounding for Izuku - meaning he wasn't doing his training in complete darkness. The sky had already grown dark and was littered with glowing stars, dimmed by the bright city lights of Japan.
Izuku's foot landed perfectly back on the floor as he body lowered into a fighting stance, his neck quickly craining over to his open journal to double check that he had performed the move correctly. His classmates had been using their quirks for years and had time to learn and perfect new moves; but Izuku didn't have the luxury of time. He was in 2-A, his second year at UA high, and had to catch up speedily if he didn't want to be left behind.
"I need to make my leg go a little higher.." He mumbled to himself through panted breaths, his chest rising and falling quickly and body ready to collapse with exhaustion.
His grey t-shirt creased as he raised his leg again, swinging it with just as much momentum as he had done so before. Cold air brushed past his face as he spun, cooling his overheating body. Izuku's leg landed steadily on the floor with a loud thud as he landed the almost perfected move, a heavy breath passing his pink lips as his brows knitted together with determination.
With a scarred hand, Izuku used the base of his T-shirt to wipe away sweat from his forehead, revealing strong, defined abs to the night. He looked around at his surroundings, taking in the peacefulness of the still night and relishing in how the crisp air cooling his heated, clammy skin.
Izuku reached for his All Might branded bottle and downed about half the contents. He breathed heavily as he pulled the object from his lips, pulling the oxygen back into his momentarily deprived lungs. The water left a small shimmer on his lips that he quickly rubbed away with the back of his hand, grimacing at the feeling of sweat that he had just wiped over his face.
A small buzz in his back pocket made Izuku drop his water bottle with a loud squeak. He forgot that his phone was in his pocket, though he was more comcerned over how it had even stayed in there with his vigorous training and all.
He reached in his pocket and fished out his phone that was, surprisingly, plain and without any All Might murchandise. On the screen was a text from his mother, remembing him of what he had already been thinking about for the past few days, and preparing for over the last 3 months.
His heat.
Unfortunately, Izuku was an omega - and the only omega in the hero course. He had kept this secret identity hidden from his classmates and UA and would go home every 3 months to have his heat before returning back to school as normal. He achieved this by taking suppressants to suppress that dreaded week, postponing it for an extra 2 months. Doing this meant that he could attend school almost normally and no one ever suspected anything; but it also meant he had one hell of a heat as a result.
And currently, no matter how much he ignored the inevitable, his heat was due in only a couple of days. This meant he was getting constant reminds from his mother to take his suppressants (as his scent is often stronger around this time) and that he would need to be cautious of anything that could cause suspicion.
"If my heat is due on the 6th of October, then I should prepare to leave on the 5th and make sure I can get out of the dorms as early as possible to avoid any incidents..." Izuku's incoherent rambling continued as he headed back into the dorms, shoving his phone back into his pocket after replying to his mother with a simple 'I remember!'.
Once inside, Izuku could hear his classmates talking in the common room, seeming almost distressed.
Curious of what had caused said small panic, Izuku saunted over to the sofas, realising it might not have been a good idea after he became self conscious over how he smelt, considering he had just been exercising excessively.
He placed a hand on the back of the olive coloured sofa as he quickly took in view. Ashido and Hagakure were having a conversation between themselves and Sero was sat beside them, though his attention was on Kaminari and Kirishima who were on the sofa near his. Yaoyorozu and Todoroki were positioned beside Kaminari and Kirishima, sat in their normal, lovey-dovey way, helds held firmly together. And Sato was on one of the cushioned stools on the other side of the coffee table.
"Hey, Midoriya, did you hear the news?" Sato said, being the first to notice Izuku's presence.
"No, has something happend?" Izuku said as he rounded the larger sofa, about to sit on one of the stools before Yaoyorozu parted her legs and gestured towards the space on the floor. A small smiled tugged at Izuku's lips as he positioned himself between Yaoyorozu's feet and she began playing with his unruly curls - this was something him and the black haired beta often did.
Being completely used to it by now, everyone payed little mind to the fact that Izuku was being petted and continued the conversation.
"The teachers called for a meeting in the morning, but we dont know what it's about." Kaminari explained as Kirishima nodded his head in an agreeing manner, adding his own part to the statement. "They said it's important, too."
I must have missed this information while training, Izuku thought to himself, before jumping back to the matter at hand.
"Do you have any ideas on what it could be about?" Izuku queried as he relaxed under Yaoyorozu's gentle touch, thankful she hadn't commented on how sweaty and in need off a wash his hair was.
Izuku's question was met with shaking of heads and simple answers like 'I dont know' and 'no clue'. Izuku looked down in thought as he tried to regurgitate any memories he had from the days news, trying to think of any villain attacks or something along those lines that could be the cause. There was one thing he could think of, but he wasn't sure if it had any possible links and didnt want to panic any of his classmates.
Before anyone spoke up again, and Izuku even had to time to think over whether to tell the group his theories or not, a new voice spoke up. "Are you talking about the meeting tomorrow?"
Every turned their gaze to a certain, ball-haired clasmate as he hauled his weirdly small frame onto a stool beside the one Sato was seated at. Thankfully, he had spoke normally and without saying anything pervy, so everyone hoped that this could actually be an intellectual conversation with said perv.
But of course, even if he was the biggest pervert in their school, everyone was happy to have him as a classmate (sometimes).
"I was looking at the news earlier and saw something about a villain attacking and killing civilians. I was thinking it could have some links to that." Mineta explained as he crossed his small legs on the stool and rested his elbows in his knees. Maybe it would be a good conversation, Izuku mused.
"I was just thinking the same thing." Izuku mumbled as his head leaned back against Yaoyorozu's hand, letting her fingers work at distracting him from the roaring ache in his muscles. He felt so relaxed under her touch that he wouldn't be suprised if he started purring. His posture had become noticeably more slouched as he sunk against the front of the sofa.
"That would actually make sense. What do y'think, bro?" Kirishima playfully leant his head on Kaminari's shoulder as he questioned the yellow haired beta, red eyes streched upwards to look at his friends seemingy plain face, most likely thinking about the question. "It depends on what they mean by important - but seems to tick most the boxes."
"What boxes?" Todoroki asked, the common phrase clearly going straight over his head.
Ashido, Kaminari, Kirishima and Hagakure burst into a fit of laughter, resulting in a raised brow and confused expression from Todoroki. Yaoyorozu attempted to hide her laughter behind her hand, but this resulting in her shoulders shaking violently and her brows to knit together as she stifled a loud laugh. She loved Todoroki, everyone did, but he could be a complete dimwit at times.
But sadly, the happiness dropped, as well as the students hopes of a nice conversation.
"Can you not do that," Mineta gestured towards Kirishima, who still had his head propped on Kaminari's shoulder, and Kaminari with a small hand. "please."
"What's wrong with that?" Hagakure said before anyone got the chance, though everyone would have said the exact same thing.
"It's gay." Mineta said with a slightly disgusted face, clearly opposing the idea or thought of anything to do with homosexuality. Of cource he is homophobic, Izuku thought as he sighed at Mineta's comment, unfortunately not that suprised. And, as if in spite of Mineta, Kaminari wrapped an arm around the redhead and pulled him closer.
"I'm gay." Kaminari snorted as Kirishima laughed at his side. Izuku chuckled at the small, joky statement as Mineta just seemed slightly agitated by the offhanded comment.
"Back to the 'important meeting'." Sato said as he tried to difuse any possible argument that could happen - mainly considering that Ashido (and most likely Hagakure, too) looked like she was about to explode with anger. He continued once he had gained everyones attention. "I don't think we should be jumping to any conclusions. We all know that UA is full of suprises - especially since Aizawa gave the announcement and he has been tricking us since day one."
"Sato is right, it would be wrong to assume it's bad news." Yaoyorozu agreed with a small nod of her head, though she kept her gaze on Izuku's hair as she made a small plait in the mess of green.
"We will just have to wait and see." Hagakure added. Izuku nodded his head gingerly and slowly in reply. Hagakure was right, they will just have to wait and see.
