[The shy and private part of Izuku says just skip every single one of these events and don't embarrass yourself by stepping on all of your partner's toes. The rational, reasonable part says it would be rude not to go. Top heroes are practically required and if he didn't show people would be disappointed.
All Might was better at this sort of PR work than Izuku is, but he'll still deal with it. He wanted to be a hero. That means doing everything a hero should. (His model wasn't Aizawa-sensei.)
He feels his heart jump to his throat as Shouto admits that. So easily too- it probably didn't mean anything, he probably just meant as a friend. That's the obvious conclusion. They are friends, it's not that weird. Nobody confesses like that anyway.
It doesn't stop his heart from pounding against his chest as he takes Shouto's hand. He hopes Shouto can't tell just how much of an effect even that much has on him.]
I like spending time with you too. [Even when it's during a villain attack. He always knows Shouto has his back and the reverse is true. They've been bailing each other out from so much for so long now.]
L-Lead the way. [Did his voice crack a little? How embarrassing.] I'll do my best.
