I’ve recently taken up embroidery, and finished my first major project(it turned out super great!!); and I thought of a rlly good way to incorporate it into one of these bad boys!
Some quick notes:
- Established-Relationship
- QPR sorta? I’ll be describing it as a “deep and exclusive platonic relationship”
- Once again, aging myself down for this fic lol
- Possible OOC but come on ya’ll know me by now haha!
OKI LETS GOOOOO!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tenya Iida kept very good care of his belongings. His family was wealthy and could afford to replace anything and everything, but that didn’t mean he should be careless with his things. But he’s a student at UA, training to be a Pro-Hero. Of course his clothing is going to be damaged along the way. He’s at least 1/4 of the way through his glasses reserves and has destroyed 3 official UA issued school uniforms. All of his others were quickly tailored and repaired to perfection.
Well, almost all his others.
“Hey Iida-kun!” Uraraka Ochaco tapped Tenya Iida’s shoulder. “Whats this?”
Iida turned his neck to address his friend. “You must be more specific, Uraraka.”
“This yellow stitching on your uniform.” Uraraka clarified.
“Oh my gosh! Its a little yellow heart!” Mina joined the conversation. “Its so cute!”
Tenya Iida blushed. “Thank you, Ashido.”
Uraraka nodded. “But where did ut come from?”
“My uniform was slightly damaged and needed to be repaired,” Tenya Iida explained.
Tenya Iida’s jacket only had a small tear. Compared to the shreds some of his other uniforms had be reduced to, it was hardly noticeable. Iida still proceeded to stress out about it. He couldn’t go to class with a damaged uniform! It was against dress code, and downright unprofessional! What was he going to do?!
“Iida, hon’ calm down.” Molly rested a hand on the taller boy’s shoulder. “Its going to be OK, I’ll fix it!”
“However, my partner has recently developed an interest in embroidery…” Iida scracthed the side his face lightly, looking away a bit flustered.
“Are you sure?” Iida asked.
“Of course!” Molly grinned. “I’d love to embroider it—“
“Molly, this is my school uniform! It can’t be customized.”
Molly pouted, and oh boy Tenya Iida knew that look. That was Molly’s ‘Don’t be a stick in the mud Tenya’ look. And yeah, Tenya was a stick in the mud. But Molly was the onlh one who somehow had a way of yanking him out of the mud. Wether he liked it or not
“It’ll be something small!” Molly exclaimed. “No one will even notice it!”
Molly clearly didnt know his classmates.
Tenya Iida sighed. He couldnt say no to that face, when he knew it wanted so badly to bring him the joy she wished she could bring him when he was away at school.
“Fine,” Tenya Iida handed over his jacket. “Please return it by Sunday.”
Molly squealed happily, hugging the jacket to her chest. “Oh Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!”
Tenya Iida was pleased to have made her so happy.
“Oh thats sweet!” Uraraka cooed. “Wait—“
“YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND?!” Mina shrieked.
Tenya Iida flinched back at her volume. “Well, I have a close-partner. Our relationship is a bit more complicated to explain than simply boyfriend and girlfriend.” He answered.
“Iida’s in a relationship?!” Midoryia suddenly joined the conversation, his notebook in hand. “How come you never told us?”
“I suppose it never came up.” Tenya explained. “And as I said, our relationship is not very easy to explain in passing conversation.”
“Omg I have to tell the group chat!” Mina rushed away, her phone inches from her face.
—————
Uraraka and Midoryia, being Iida’s close friends, immediately insisted to meet Iida’s mysterious partner. And after discussing it with Molly it was decided Uraraka and Midoryia would join Tenya and Molly for dinner at the Iida residence.
As the trio made their way to the estate, Iida took a moment to show his friends pictures of Molly’s other embroidery projects. So far she had completed a simple flower pattern and a complex rooster she had designed herself. And of course, the tiny yellow heart on Iida’s jacket.
“Wow, thats so pretty!” Uraraka smiled.
“Mhm,” Midoryia nodded. “You said she only started doing this recently?”
Tenya Iida nodded, putting his phone away. “She’s quite skilled for a beginner. She’s learning fast.”
The three finally arrived at Iida’s home, and Molly was there waiting on the front steps. Uraraka and Midoryia took a moment to take in Molly’s appearence. She had short wavey hair and a plump figure. Her eyes were a dark brown and her rosy cheeks were littered with freckles just like Midoryia’s.
“Tenya!” Molly called out, a huge grin on her face. She waved to the group wildly, as if she were a wacky inflatable arm man.
“Hello Dear!” Tenya Iida greeted her. “Thank You very much for joining us!”
“Of course! I’m so excited to finally meet your friends.”
…
Throughout dinner much conversation was had. Molly and Iida explained their relationship. Not exactly romantic but definitely not just friends either. An intimate and exclusive friendship. They learned about how the two met, how ling they’d beeb together, and much more.
“Hey Midoryia, could I speak to you for a moment please?” Molly calmly asked.
“O-Oh! Sure…” Midoryia responded nervously.
Once in an isolated hallway, Molly turned to Midoryia.
“I wanted to thank you for protecting Iida during the Hosu incident.” Molly said.
“You know?!” Midoryia gasped.
“Yes, I do.”
“Wha-How?”
“Iida confided in me before his work study how he felt about everything going on. And that…he hoped to confront the Hero Killer. I understood whay he was going through, and I knew I couldnt stop him from making whatever choice he did. All I was able to do was to convince him not to seak Stain out, and to only go through with his plans if he encountered Stain by chance. And well, you know the rest…”
“Molly, I—“
“I don’t know a lot about what happened, I could only convince him to tell me so much. But I do know that you played a part in keeping my partner safe and alive. So thank You Midoryia.”
Midoryia wanted to say so much, so many different things. But all he couldnt manage was a nod.
“And don’t worry, I gave him a stern talking to!” Molly laughed.
THE END
(Jeez whats wring with me lately lol)
