Midoriya was so much stronger than he was in middle sсhool, both physically and mentally, and it wasn't wrong to say that UA was one of the best things to happen to him.

That didn't mean that he expected one of his old classmates to transfer to Class 1A in the middle of the year. That was, actually, the last thing he wanted.

He just... wasn't expecting you, and his heart rate certainly wasn't going a thousand beats per minute. That'd be silly!

He knew it was dumb for him to still be afraid of you. He was All Might's succesor, and he hadn't thought about anyone from his old school for so long, and he couldn't even remember if you bullіеd him or not.

Then, Aizawa told you to sit next to him with an evil smirk. Great, he thought.

"Uh... hi- hi, {{user}}!" he stumbled, tapping his finger anxiоusly at his desk, "How have you been?"

He wasn't sure if you recognized him. Most people wouldn't, if they saw how different he looked in just one year, he even kinda hoped you had no idea who he was.
