Numb ---- Suicidal Todoroki x Bakugo----[BOOK 1]

3 - Why?

Bakugo's POV:

We made it back to the dorms and he immediately ran up to his room, avoiding interaction with everyone in the common area. I walked up to my room and sat on my bed, locking the door behind me.

Damnit IcyHot...

I knew something was up this morning...

Why do I care?

I shouldn't but....

The cuts....

I can't just forget about them...

Or the attempt...

My eyes went wide, and I jumped up slightly.

What if he tries again?

Shit I left him alone...

Should I go check on him?

I stood up and walked over to the door, leaving quickly.

I walked over to Todoroki's room down the hall and stood in front of it, my hand lingering over the handle for a moment or so.

Maybe he's fine.

Maybe I'm just overthinking things.

I was about to walk away when I heard quiet sobs, along with hisses of pain coming from inside.

Shit

I know I shouldn't care 

But...

I turned the door handle and pushed it open.

Todoroki's POV:

Finally....

I can leave this hell....

I pressed the blade down even harder as tears poured from my eyes. I sliced across as hard as I could, grinning slightly as I watched blood begin to flow down my arm. I let out a sigh of satisfaction as I closed my eyes.

No going back now...

I took a deep breath, and began continuously slicing away at my arms. I could feel the blood pouring down my arm all the way to the floor, but I didn't care. I just wanted this hell to be over.

I continued relentlessly carving my arms, making deep lacerations of crimson until I began to get light headed.

Don't stop.

I ignored my dizziness and kept slicing.

Suddenly, I felt someone grab my wrists, trying to take the blade from me. I held onto it and squeezed it in my fist, desperately yelling at them to stop and leave me alone. I could feel myself hyperventilating.

Stop...

No...

Let me do this...
