What A Nice Hug - Blog Posts

After such a long flight, it felt nice to stretch and get the legs moving again. Pino obviously felt the same as she flew around him, stretching out those wings and happily tweeting.

A luggage was being pulled behind him in one hand, a cell phone in the other. He had it on hand just in case he couldn't find Deku. The very thought of being in Japan and seeing Deku again kept him up for the past few nights. Don't worry, he still got sleep, but it was hard with all the excitement and nerves.

Curoo~!

The alert from Pino caused Rody to snap out of his thoughts and look up.

That green mess of hair could stand out anywhere.

Rody's pace quickened, basically running to the hero. "Deku!" He let go of his luggage and happily welcomed the hug, immediately hugging him back. It was a tight hug, one full of longing and warmth, and Rody couldn't help but lift the shorter friend off the ground in excitement.

He pulled out of the hug, keeping one hand on Izuku's shoulder. He managed to keep his composure as well, but Pino gave away how happy he really was with the tears in her eyes.

"Aha! I know!" Rody matched the hero's grin, giving his shoulder a nudge with the hand that was resting on it. "It's all thanks to you honestly. Ha, you must have really missed me if you helped fly me out here, eh, Deku?"

It took everything in Izuku not to start bouncing up and down where he was standing. He was waiting outside of Gate 15 for an incoming flight from Otheon. Finally, after seven long months of waiting, today was the day! 

Rody was visiting him in Japan!

They had been planning this for months. Instead of spending his extra money on All Might merchandise, he focused all of it towards Rody’s travel expenses and anything they’d end up doing while together for the week. They had practically talked every other day ever since Rody had saved up money to buy a cell phone. They had learned a lot about each other in that time, and despite the long distance between them, Izuku still felt as if they were becoming closer than ever.

So, really… it wasn’t much of a surprise that this was the most excited he’d felt in a very long time. 

As soon as he spotted Rody’s face, his eyes lit up as bright as the sun. He couldn’t help but rush forward and pull the other young man into a fierce hug. He could feel himself tearing up, but he managed to keep the tears at bay. He couldn’t keep the grin off of his face even if he tried to. 

“I can’t believe you’re actually here right now!” he exclaimed with a cheerful laugh. “It’s so great to see you again, Rody!”
