The Words You Say Won't Go Away

1 ~ The Talk

I open my eyes to my All Might alarm clock going off. Since starting at UA my life has been going pretty good. I get along with most of my classmates. Except Kacchan of course, because he doesn't like me for some reason. It doesn't really bother me as much as it used to i'm just glad I have the friends that I do! I go through my wardrobe and put on my school uniform.

I head to class like I do everyday. For some reason though I had a bad feeling about today which is pretty rare. I shake it off so it doesn't ruin my mood. After a bit of notes Mr.Aizawa brought up and interesting topic.

"okay class, today we are going to be talking about quirkless people." he says not realizing I myself used to be quirkless. My heart sank just thinking about how my classmates might think of them. My thoughts were cut short with the answer I didn't want.

"What exactly is the purpose of quirkless people?" Kirishima asks with a straight face.

"Who even knows dude. They're honestly just useless." Denki replied to his question.

I knew it... I just kept my head low hearing everyone in the class talk about how quirkless people have no purpose and how useless they are. It hurt hearing it but I knew deep down that I had always known my classmates thought like this.

I feel a hand on my shoulder and when I turn I see that it's Kacchan. "They're just joking okay?"

Hearing that coming from him made something boil inside me. Him of all people had no right to say anything. All throughout middle school he made fun of me every day for not having one. He thought he was better than me, that everyone was better than me just because I didn't have a quirk.

"Your kidding me right? You think they're joking about this type of topic!" oh no...

I look around to see everyone in the class now looking at me. I messed up. I just shut my mouth and put my head back down. I don't want them to know the truth... I don't want them to hate me...

"what's up with deku?" Uraraka asks.

"I don't know. I guess he just really likes quirkless people." Iida shrugs.

"that's stupid everyone knows they're useless." Denki chuckles and everyone else in the class laughs.

I want to leave. I just want to go up in my dorm and not have to worry about others. I just want to isolate myself from everyone. I felt tears starting to form in my eyes so I put my head down on the desk. Kirishima noticed and came over with Denki not far behind.

"Dude are you okay?" kirishima asks me.

I don't want to answer but I know I have to say something."Why do you guys hate quirkless people so much..?"

"Isn't it obvious? They serve zero purpose in this life" Denki says not realizing how I used to be quirkless.

"Yeah they are honestly just worthless, they can't do anything" Kirishima said after him.

That was is. I couldn't take this anymore. I felt the tears start streaming down my face as I lifted my head up. I looked right as them as I said "I used to be quirkless..."

Both their eyes widen in shock. I didn't realize it before but the whole class was listening to our conversation. Oh no... Everyone just heard that I used to be quirkless... I stand up before anyone could say anything and ran out of the classroom.

~ In My Dorm ~

I lock my door and go over to my bed. I just sit there hugging my knees for a while. I don't want to have to face my classmates. They are all going to make fun of me just like in middle school. I can't go through that again. It hurt too much.

I was finally getting along with everyone, then I had to go and ruin it...
