Ride Or Die (Deku x Fem Reader)

Chapter 2: First Words

Y/n POV:

I run to the nearest bathroom and go straight to the handicapped stall, slamming the metal door and locking it. I stare at my reflection for a second and see my eyes watering.

No don't do it, damnit! Don't cry! Then you really will be weak, just like that blonde jerk said back there! Don't prove him right!

I decide to splash some cold water onto my face to try and calm myself down. As I reach for the sink I notice my hands trembling harshly and rush even more to start the water. After splashing the cool liquid on my face a couple times I lean against the stall and collect myself with deep breaths.

So it already isn't going well. And if I wasn't in the way, maybe that poor boy wouldn't have been noticed and got picked on. Seemed like it happened to him before.

Suddenly, I remembered that my old school doesn't start for another 20 minutes so I decided to text my friends and fill them in on my...experience.

Deku's POV:

"Maybe I should just end it all right now."

I shakily get up and walk to the edge, looking over the campus. I see groups of friends walking and talking while heading inside the building, two boys racing each other to the door while their other friends stay behind and cheer them on, three girls, probably first years, taking a selfie, and some third years playing catch with a rubber ball.

I could've had these things. I could've made friends, laughed with them, and spent time with them at our houses. Making memories. Being happy. Could I still have a chance of gaining those things? It doesn't seem like it. It's probably-no, it is- for the best to give up...

I climb onto the ledge and slowly open my arms, closing my eyes and inhaling one last breath.

This is it. In about 10 seconds I'll be free from this torturous world. Free from the chains of depression and anxiety. Free from the abuse. Free from faking that I'm okay.
