its been four weeks since the incident. I don't have much time left. I'm in the hospital and my body hurts. my class comes to see me every once in awhile. I could tell that their worried that I might not recover. and their right. I'm not. I'm not even going to be able to heal from this, cause I-

I'm going to die...

and yet. I can't bring myself to tell them that. no one knows that i'm going to die. not even my mother. I begged the doctors that I wanted to be the one to tell them. The doctors hesitantly agreed. They also told me I could be discharged tomorrow, they want me to live my last two weeks normally.


I am able to move. just a little sore. but the reason I'm going to die Is because I was hit with a quirk. The quirk I was hit by slowly destroys the targets body and eats away at bones skin and blood. the quirk isn't fast acting and they have no Idea how to stop it. the doctors say that I have about two weeks left to live. that the quirk has been moving at a slow rate. I sat up in my hospital bed. Just then I heard knocking on the door. I sighed. putting on a smile. I'm not going to lie, I'm terrified of dying. I don't want to die. It scares me. the door to my room opened and In came uraraka, bakugo, denki, and iida. they've been here the most. kacchan being here surprises me but It also makes me happy.

"hey deku!"

uraraka said smiling at me. I smiled back at her. I looked over at kacchan who was staring at the IV that was connected to my arm.

"hey Guys! what brings you here?"

They all smiled. Iida walked over to me and hugged me.

"We just found out that your being discharged tomorrow! and the doctor said in two weeks you'll have to come back for a check up, and then you'll be free to go!"

I'm thankful for the doctors lying for me. I want to tell them I really do, but I can't bring myself to. I looked down at the IV in my arm. It all feels like a bad dream. but I cant bring myself to tell them. two week's, huh? I- I'm really scared.

I saw deku look down when round face mentioned his two week check in. I don't know why, but I have a strange feeling about this all. deku doesn't look happy at all. he looks a bit scared. thats when he lifted his head up and smiled.

" I'm excited! its all going to be over in about two weeks!"

the way he said that......

I don't like it. its making me worry. and that smile. anyone would pass it off as him being happy, But I, I know that smile all to well. hes scared. but why? should I ask? would that be to weird? tch. why do I even care for that loser? all I need to do Is make sure I beat him.

"well anyways we'll let you rest. do you know what time your being discharged?"

iida said. he was moving his arm side to side.

" I think I'll be discharged in the morning."

it got quite for a minute.

" hey guys can we do something fun tomorrow? and maybe the next two weeks?"

what? why exactly the next two weeks? why couldn't It be forever? I'm really worried now.

"yeah sure!!! but why the next two weeks? and right before your check in? are you scared of seeing if your all better?"

I saw deku's body stiffen. ok, What in the hell is going on with him.

"well kinda... you see I've been cooped up inside all this time and I well I wanted to have fun continuously because the two week check in is more important then it sounds. Its when I get major....um test results on my arms. you see I have major nerve damage to them. "

I could tell their was some truth to that, but hes leaving out more important things. round face looked like she was going to cry.

"deku!! oh my god I hope your arms are ok!! yes well have the most fun for the next two weeks to help you forget about it!!"

two weeks, huh?

"well we've got to get going its getting late"

iida said. they both started to leave. I wanted to leave but my body didn't move. I have so many questions. I know somethings up. I sighed. I forced myself to turn around. I began to walk towards the door.

"ka-kacchan"

I heard deku say. I turned around to see him looking at me.

" you could tell right? that I I wasn't telling the full truth. I saw it on your face."

he said. I looked at him for a while before walking up to the chair next to his bed and sitting down.

" I could tell your scared. Why?"

that's when I realized that he had tears in his eyes.

"kacchan I, I don't want to go."

what? go where? what does he mean? he doesn't have to go anywhere.

"I'm scared to die kacchan."

what? die? hes not going to die soon. is he referring to being scared of fighting villans. No, that's not it I know him. He wouldn't be scared of that.

"don't be stupid deku! your not going to die! I hate to admit it but your a better fighter then you give yourself credit for."

he looked at me and smiled. my chest ached at that moment. I hate that look. he looks so sad, so lost, and so broken.

"kacchan your wrong. I am going to die."
