Cooking Euphoria

After showering, Izuku used his towel to wipe himself and took out fresh clothes from his inventory.

He unlocked the door and sat down beside Midnight.

Midnight was drinking a beer while sitting cross-legged on the sofa. The

Her clothing was very alluring and her antics were even more erotic and uncomfortable for the young Izuku to bear.

His heart was beating fast and his hands were already sweating. He tried to calm himself down by thinking about All Might. 'His muscles... Bleh! I don't want to be as buffed as him!'

It didn't take long for him to relax, and he quickly started enjoying the soft feeling of the fluffy sofa.

He looked at Midnight and asked, "Um... Midnight-san? I hope that this beer isn't from their fridge?"

Midnight looked at him and replied, "So what? I've known Lily for some years already. I am pretty sure she would allow me to take a beer out of her fridge. Besides, what am I supposed to do here if not drinking? This place is boring and I need to stay here till you decide to leave." she leisurely drank her beer without any care in the world.

"I am sorry about that.."

"Don't be, it's a job. It's not like it matters."

Suddenly, Izuku felt his stomach rumble. He quickly figured that his stomach just growled in hunger, desperate for some food.

'I haven't eaten anything since yesterday's morning... My schedule was so packed with fights and situations, I just didn't have time.'

Midnight noticed it as well and said, "Looks like you are hungry. I am as well. Let me make us something."

Midnight stood up, opened the fridge and took out some eggs and syrup.

Izuku wanted to stop her, but his stomach protested. He also wanted to see whether she can cook something.

'God. This woman is so wild.' Izuku thought.

Midnight grabbed a flower printed apron and got to work.

Izuku was observing her from behind while admiring her skills.

'Gotta hand it to her, she knows what she is doing or rather, most women are good cooks, so it's probably only natural.' Izuku thought.

Midnight turned her head to look at Izuku and she caught him ogling her.

"Ara. See something you like?" she smiled while expecting him to turn red like a tomato, but instead of doing that, he just nodded and didn't say anything. This caught her off guard and made her blush instead.

'Why is he so calm?! He was completely bashful in the bathroom! He must be just acting tough!' Midnight thought.

Izuku was never a bold kid. Of course, he would get embarrassed when it comes to women, but this time, he hadn't even thought about looking at her that way, he simply observed her skills, since he likes to cook as well.

Izuku continued to stare at her passionately, making Midnight more and more uncomfortable.

Midnight wasn't able to say anything else throughout the cooking process as she was just too embarrassed to do so.

'Why do I feel embarrassed?! I am the ultimate sadist. The R rater hero Midnight! He is just a brat! Calm yourself down...'

She tried to compose herself, but the moment their eyes met, she panicked once again and turned around in a hurry.

'Breathe Midnight. It's just a kid.'

After calming herself down once again, she spat out some random sentences.

'So... Izuku-kun... Are you glad that Nezu sent you the recommendation letter?"

"Of course! For the principal to personally invite me is a great honor!"

Izuku's eyes shined as he replied in joy.

Seeing his reaction, Midnight smiled as well and continued with their little talk.

"So, are you ready for the exams? I've heard you plan on participating in both the recommendation exam and the normal exam. Why is that?" Midnight asked.

Izuku scratched his head and replied, "Yes, I am really glad for the principal's kind gesture, but I want to prove my skills like a normal student as well. Besides, I wouldn't want people to say that I got in through the backdoor."

Midnight nodded and replied, "That's admirable. But aren't you scared of the tests?"

Izuku shook his head and replied, "Although the written test will be easy and boring, I am excited about the physical exam where we use our quirks. I can't wait!"

Midnight sighed when she remembered that his IQ is a lot bigger than hers.

"Since when were the written exams easy you dummy? You are supposed to be scared of failing, not being bored.

The same goes for quirk examinations. Tons of people fail every year if they don't meet the standards. It's quite a tragic thing. Most of those kids had dreams that they would end up becoming a hero, but after they try the exam, they give up. It's a miracle we even have so many students at U.A. I remember that I had trouble with passing at my hero university.

Written tests were never my favorites. I flunked the exam even though I studied for so long. They only allowed me to attend since my quirk was really strong and they needed manpower to fight the villains." Midnight sighed.

Izuku wasn't sure what to say to that, so he just patiently waited for her to finish with her cooking.

"You are making French toast right?" Izuku asked.

Midnight widened her eyes in a surprise and replied, "Yeah, How did you know? I didn't even tell you yet."

Izuku smiled and replied, "I love cooking, although doing French toast isn't cooking since it's still a basic thing most people could do, I still prepare it for my mom quite often. I usually wake up at 4 am and after my workout, I have some free time, so I just learn how to make stuff and make my mother a breakfast when she wakes up."

*Beep*

A sound of notification rang in Izuku's head the moment he finished his sentence.

Izuku blankly stared at the screen.

'What just happened?'

Izuku knew he had this feature in his quirk since he has experienced it with Kacchan before, but he didn't think it worked on other people as well.

While Izuku was surprised, Midnight felt like she was in heaven.

'A man who likes to cook... I can't believe there is a man like that.'

She tried to keep her poker face, but the smirk on her face was apparent and Izuku could see that she was happy for some reason.

For a Japanese male, cooking, was an insult. Almost no man in Japan would try to cook, as that was embarrassing to do and you would bring shame to your own image.

Midnight watches western cooking shows all the time and she enjoys them very much.

One day, she was completely bored so she switched to a western channel. Her satellite was modified by Nezu, as a gift for becoming a pro hero. This function was given to every pro hero. Therefore, she could watch all western channels even though normal satellites didn't have that ability.

The moment she switched to a cooking channel, she was in shock. About 7 males, were cooking on a show called Hell's Kitchen. This intrigued her as they weren't embarrassed at all. They cooked and tried to survive the hellish training of a man called Gordon Ramsay. Midnight's english wasn't that bad, so she could even understand some of the insults the man threw at his trainees.

She laughed most of the time and pretty much enjoyed the show and from then on, she dreamed of being with a man who likes to cook. Now that she found a man she wanted, she was excited but also a little disappointed, as he was too young for her and who would want an old hag when he can go out with young meat.

Midnight finished her French toasts and prepared them for Izuku while watching his reaction.

'Ugh, she is looking at me weirdly again. Is she after my butt again?' Izuku thought and clenched his butt out of the instinct.

He tasted the French Toast and nodded. The strong sweet flavor hit him like a tsunami.

'The quality is really good. She deserves praise for this.'

He smiled at her and said, "It's really good, I can feel your love for cooking. It's high. You must have been cooking for some years. I knew that you were experienced the moment I saw how you cracked those eggshells and the wa-"

*Beep*

Izuku wasn't able to finish his sentence because a certain sound rang in his head once again.
