Chapter One

The Confession

Today is the day I will Confess.

I never thought the day would come. But recently I've been feeling confident about us. The way he holds me, laughs with me, and cries with me. I am almost certain he feels the same way.

I woke up especially early to get ready for this moment. My heart is pounding in my chest with anticipation. I fear his answer is not what I hope for, but I think I'm ready to try.

As I finish brushing my teeth I take a glance in the mirror, praying I look okay. Once I was sure I looked my best I hopped out of my room and into the small dorm living room.

Kirishima quickly caught my eye, I felt a huge smile grace my lips on its own. But that was before I realized he was already speaking to someone else.

I ducked behind a wall quickly, ready to eavesdrop, as good friends do. I quickly realized it was Bakugou whom he was speaking. ' Why would he need to speak to Bakugou so early in the morning?' I thought to myself, leaning in closer to catch their conversation.

"Actually, Bakugou, there is something I'd like to ask you."

I felt my heart drop at this moment, what could be so urgent?

"Spit it out shitty hair"

"I like you, like a lot. Way more than I can explain with words. Will you be my boyfriend?"

I winced, my heart felt as if It was shattering, the shards stabbing into my delicate organs. A splitting pain exploded around my body.

I quickly look over to see Bakugou patting Kirishima's hair with a warm smile.

'I think I'm going to be sick'

I ducked out of the room and ran to the bathroom. A feeling of dread took over my body.

As I heaved into the toilet I couldn't help but sob. Was Kirishima's confession really hurting me this bad? Was I that down bad?

As I opened my eyes I saw a small red petal fall into the toilet water..

I quickly got up and pretended that never happened and rushed to my room. Soon after, another sob left my mouth.

As the tears escaped my eyes I laid down, tears soaking my pillows. Soft whimpers leaving my mouth.

—--

I quickly arose from my bed. Had I fallen asleep?

Yanking my phone from the charger I looked at the time.

"Twelve?!"

'Oh god I'm so late'

As I throw myself out of bed I fix my hair the best I can with my fingers and rush out of my room, grabbing my bag in the process.

I make it to class in 5 minutes flat and stand in the doorway breathing heavily. The whole class was staring at me, having already started getting ready for lunch.

I smiled cheekily, hoping I didn't appear as If I just cried.

"Sorry I slept in my accident, teach."

"Whatever, it's lunch, just don't be late coming back," Aizawa said with his usual tired demeanor.

I nodded quickly and rushed over to my seat to set down my bag. As I was unpacking some essentials I felt a hand land on my shoulder.
As I glanced back I noticed it was Kirishima.

"Hey, Kiri wassup?" I tilted my head

"I want to tell you something, come with me" He

smiled widely.
