⚠️TW: Mention of eating disorder!⚠️

Izuku's POV (le gaspe)

Lunch had just started and I was on the roof 'eating' away from everyone. I never really eat lunch, and if I do it always ends up in the toilet or trashcan. Olivander and I were laying on the roof listening to Achilles, Come Down by Grand of Youth, me using his body as a pillow and him laying on a blanket that I keep in this backpack when we heard the heavy metal door shut, we both looked up to see my brother and 3 other people.

I paused my music and sat up as the small group of teens made their way over to me. Sitting down Shinso handed me a small thing of apple sauce, looking at me with a knowing look on his face.

"Eat it, please Zuzu, I know it's hard but that's why I brought you something light." He said placing a bowl of soup in front of me. I don't want to make him upset so I picked up the bowl of soup and started to eat it after I ate the apple sauce.

"What were you listening to if you don't mind me asking." A female with short deep purple hair, I think her name is Jiro, asks. I place my half-empty bowl of soup down and looked at her

"Achilles, Come Down from Grand of Youth, it's a good but kind of sad song." I say getting a little anxious, Oli noticed this and moved to lay on my lap. Shinso saw this as well and placed his hand on my knee, I calmed down a little soon after and we all talked until the bell rang telling us lunch was over. Once everyone had each other's numbers and a group chat was made, we all went our separate ways to our class.

However, Oli and I went straight to the bathroom. We walked into the bathroom and over to the big stall, I hung up mine and Oli's bag, unhooking his leash from my pants. Crouching in front of the toilet, I took my index and middle fingers and pushed them to the back of my throat, gagging until I finally emptied everything that was in my stomach until the acids started burning my throat and a knock on the stall door caught my attention. I got up, flushed the toilet, and unlocked the door only to see Kacchan with a sad but knowing look on his face.

I look down avoiding eye contact and feel a pair of strong arms wrap around me as if they let go I would disappear. Kacchan picked me up and sat me down on the sink counter with my back facing the mirror. He handed me a bottle of water and I rinsed out my mouth and grabbed the piece of gum that was held in front of my face.

"Thank you Kacchan." I say playing with my fingers while looking down. It was quiet in the bathroom, just us hugging until Bakugo suddenly let go and kissed my head.
"We are both late for class and it's only the first day Nerd, now come on before we miss the whole damn day." He says in a soft tone helping me off the sink counter and handed me mine and Oli's bags before I clipped Olivander's leash back onto my beltloop and we all walked off to class, getting in trouble for being late.

The school day went by slowly and it was finally time to go home. Olivander and I made our way to the teacher's lounge and walked inside waiting for my dads to get done with their paperwork. Shinso walked into the room and sat next to me on a couch that was in the room. After what felt like an eternity, they finished and got in the car, picked up Eri from kindergarten, and went home.
