i rubbed my eyes and stared angrily at the letter i was writing. i was planning on confessing to my friend, izuku, but it had gone harder than i expected. i ended up chickening out and now there was a blank piece of paper in front of me, waiting for me to spill my heart out.

what do i even write? it has to be perfect. the possibility of a ruined friendship haunts me as i write down the first words.

dear izuku,

well, that's a great start. after half an hour, i finally have something. overthinking is really not great in this situation.

i get tired of not knowing what to write so i decided that its best if i'm just honest and speak my mind. i smiled at the thought of izuku and suddenly feel warm. my hand automatically wrote sentence after sentence, following my thought process. i thought of all the memories I had with him and the small things he did to make me fall so hard.

finally, i was done. i scanned over the letter and nodded to myself, as if approving my own letter. this isn't so bad. either way i will be a nervous wreck.

i've had something on my mind for a while now and i think it's time i tell you. you deserve to know and honestly i don't know how much longer i can keep it to myself- so here it goes.

do you remember, when we met accidentally a while ago, you bumped into me at that cute cafe that we always go to? after you insisted on buying me a new drink since i dropped mine, we found out that we have a lot of things in common, one of those being our goals to get into UA.

here we are now, a few months in and honestly they have been the best months of my life. you made my days so much better by just asking me how i am or laughing at my dumb jokes. every time i'm hanging out with you i feel like the happiest and luckiest person ever. you inspire me in ways no one else has and you have helped me work so much harder.

lately things have been a bit different for me. you make my heart race and my stomach does flips when you smile at me. it's stupid, but i became so much more nervous around you. i really like your dumb fluffy hair and your cute freckles and precious smile. izuku, i like you. and not in a friend way. just to be 100% clear.

i hope you don't hate me after this, especially since it cost me a lot of sleepless nights. if you don't feel the same, just ignore this letter and please don't treat me any differently, i'll still be your friend and we can both forget about this.

i'll always be here for you regardless of your response. thank you for making me happy and feel loved ♡

i grabed a plain white envelope and doodled some random cute things on it, i didn't want to put tons of hearts on it since that would make it very obvious. the silly sketches reminded me of the doodles we made together during boring classes.

once i was done i snuck out of my dorm, luckily no one seemed to be around. i made my way carefully to deku's room and stood in front of the door for a good 5 minutes trying to decide how to give it to him.

i ended up knocking on the door with the intention of giving it to him when he opened the door, but as soon as i heard light footsteps i freaked out and slipped the letter under his door before running away. i faintly heard his door open but luckily i was already out of sight.

i raced back to my room and shut the door, then jumped on my bed and tried not to scream. it felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my shoulders, but at the same time the suspense was eating me up.
