Pleased with Eri's progress over the month, Izuku, Kaina, Maki, Momo, Fuyumi, and Rei decided to celebrate. The girls had secretly planned a special surprise for Izuku's birthday, wanting to show their gratitude for everything he had done for them.
It was Fuyumi's idea to celebrate Izuku's birthday. She remembered how, in the past, they had celebrated alone, and she wanted to make this one special. She discussed the plan with the others, and they all agreed enthusiastically.
"We should make this birthday unforgettable for him," Fuyumi said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Izuku has done so much for us without asking for anything in return. It's time we show him how much we appreciate him." Kaina added
The girls decided to take Eri out for the day as an excuse to bring Izuku, unaware of what the girls had planned, Izuku readily agreed to. "It's important for her to have some fun after all her hard work," he said with a smile.
As they walked to the surprise location, Eri looked up at Izuku. "Big Brother Izuku, where are we going?"
"It's a surprise, Eri," Izuku replied, his heart warming at her excitement.
"Where are we going exactly?" asked Izuku to Fuyumi as even though he didn't know where they were going as the girls had told they would decide the place.
"It's a surprise for you as well," Fuyumi said, winking at him.
They arrived at a beautiful restaurant, which the girls had booked entirely for the day to ensure privacy. The private room was exquisitely decorated with balloons, streamers, and a large banner that read "Happy Birthday, Izuku!" hung across the wall.
Izuku was taken aback. "This... this is for me?"
"Surprise!" the girls shouted in unison. "Happy Birthday, Izuku!"
Eri tugged on his sleeve. "Happy Birthday, Big Brother Izuku!"
"Even you remember Eri," saying that Izuku lifted Eri, hugging her tightly.
Izuku felt tears welling up in his eyes. "Thank you, everyone. I haven't celebrated my birthday in almost ten years. This means so much to me."
The girls had gone all out. They had ordered all of Izuku's favorite foods and even baked a cake. Momo, the event planner, had coordinated everything down to the smallest detail.
"We wanted to show you how much we appreciate everything you've done for us," Maki said, her voice full of sincerity. "You're always there for us, and we wanted to be there for you too."
Fuyumi nodded, tears in her eyes. "Izuku, you've done so much for me, for all of us. This is just a small way of saying thank you. Isn't this the type of birthday you wanted?"
Izuku simply nodded.
Kaina smiled warmly. "You've been like a rock for us, Izuku. We wanted to make sure you know how much you're loved and appreciated."
Izuku was overwhelmed with emotion. "Thank you, all of you. This is the best birthday I've ever had."
The girls' excitement was palpable as they celebrated. They laughed, shared stories, and enjoyed the meal together. Each of them took turns expressing their gratitude for everything Izuku had done for them, making him feel truly special.
Eri, sitting next to Izuku, hugged him tightly. "Big Brother Izuku, I'm so happy we could celebrate your birthday together. I love you so much."
Izuku hugged her back, his heart full. "I love you too, Eri. And I love all of you. Thank you for making this day so special."
The celebration continued late into the evening. The girls had prepared small gifts for Izuku, each one thoughtful and meaningful, Izuku decided to open them later at night.
Rei handed him a beautifully wrapped box. "This is from all of us. We hope you like it."
Izuku decided to open the huge box, as it seemed to be something all of them gave him together, Izuku opened the box to find a framed photo of all of them together during one of their recent outings. The frame was engraved with the words "Family Forever."
Tears streamed down Izuku's face. "This is perfect. Thank you so much. I'll cherish this forever."
The girls beamed with pride, knowing they had made Izuku's birthday unforgettable. They had gone to great lengths to celebrate, and their love and care for him were evident in every detail.
As the evening drew to a close, the girls took turns planting soft kisses on Izuku's cheeks, showing their love and affection. Momo leaned in and kissed his cheek, whispering, "Thank you for everything, from saving me not once but twice, protecting me, making sure I don't feel alone, Thank you for everything you did for me, Izuku. You mean the world to us."
Kaina followed, kissing the other cheek and smiling warmly. "You've done so much for me, someone who was willing to die, had no will to live, no one to go to, no place to call home, a person dead on the inside, feeling no emotions at all.
You gave me a place to live, made me feel a myriad of emotions, happy emotions, gave me my lost respect, my happiness, made me feel alive again, supported me with everything, brought me justice, helped me repent for my past, made me a totally new person, you have made me feel so special that I have no words to thank you for, you have brought so much light into our lives, Izuku." Said Kaina as she kissed him once more.
Maki, not one to be outdone, gave him a playful peck on the forehead. "If you wouldn't have been there for me on that cold night I would haven't even been alive right now, you protected me, gave me warmth and comfort, helped me gain control of my quirk, something that I had always associated with all the misery I had endured.
To treat me like I matter to someone, to you, filling my life with love, care and protection, thank you for coming into my life when I needed it the most, you even helped me get revenge for what I suffered at the hands of my parents for something that isn't even in my control. You're our hero, Izuku."
Fuyumi and Rei also kissed him, each expressing their heartfelt gratitude. "You were someone who was very special to me, someone who I always cared about, your disappearance just made me realise how much you matter to me, not as just some brotherly figure but as someone I love with my whole heart and Izuku," Fuyumi said, her voice filled with emotion. "Thank you for being there for us."
Rei's eyes glistened with tears as she spoke. "I don't have much to say, but you were the only one who saw how much I was suffering in silence. You helped me, comforted me, and gave love and care to someone who's nearly middle-aged.
You showed me what real happiness is and accepted me for who I am, with all my problems. All I can say is thank you for everything you've done for me. I'm always here for you, and you can always count on me." She kissed Izuku, her gratitude and love clear in her eyes.
The girls had also accepted Rei, they had seen it coming and they had accepted her wholeheartedly, afterall they were aware of how miserable her life was, and if Izuku could comfort her, what's wrong in it.
By the time the girls finished feeling thankful to Izuku, the sleeping Eri had also woken up by then.
As they sat down to eat the cake, the girls took turns feeding Izuku with their own hands, a gesture of love and care. Eri giggled as she offered him a piece. "Here, Big Brother Izuku. This is for you!"
Izuku felt touched beyond words. "Thank you, Eri. This cake is delicious."
The girls continued to pamper him, ensuring he felt every bit of their affection. They shared stories and laughed, creating a warm and joyful atmosphere.
Izuku, feeling overwhelmed by their love, looked around at his family with a heartfelt smile. "This has been the best birthday ever," he said softly. "Thank you, everyone. I'm so lucky to have you all in my life."
He took a deep breath, his voice steady and sincere. "I promise to always protect you all, to always be there for you, just as you've been there for me. You're my family, and I love you all so much."
The girls smiled, their hearts full of love for Izuku. They had made it their mission to show him how much he meant to them, and they succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.
Izuku's happiness was the best gift they could have given him, and as they all sat together, they knew they had created memories that would last a lifetime.
After the wonderful celebration, Izuku, Kaina, Maki, Momo, Fuyumi, Rei, and Eri made their way back home. The evening was filled with laughter and contentment as they reminisced about the day's events. The girls chatted excitedly, happy to have made Izuku's birthday so special.
When they arrived home, Izuku carried the sleeping Eri to her room and gently tucked her in. He kissed her forehead and whispered, "Goodnight, Eri. Thank you for making today so special."
He then joined the others in the living room, where a pile of beautifully wrapped gifts awaited him. The girls gathered around, eager to see his reaction as he opened each one.
