Midoriya Izuku

Back to therapy

A/N: Tumblr request about the reader going back to therapy without telling Deku and him finding out

Midoriya was running around the city on patrol, when he noticed a familiar figure on the street next to the building he was on top of.

He was about to float down and call out to you, but you went into the building. Midoriya wasn't sure what you were doing in that part of town, but as he jumped down to look at the building, he realized it looked familiar.

He was pretty sure it was where your therapist had had their office a few years back.

"Why would they be here?" he wondered out loud as he landed on the street.

"Omg! It's Deku!" some passerby shouted excitedly.

Before he knew it, he was swarmed by people wanting autographs and pictures, and the situation with you slipped his mind.

When Midoriya came home that evening, you were sitting on the couch, munching on some chips and watching some TV show.

"Hey" you greeted, without taking your eyes off the screen.

"Hey, were you around the main library today? I thought I saw you there" he asked, trying to sound nonchalant but failing miserably.

Midoriya couldn't think of anything else that was near the therapist's office so he just went with the library.

"Yeah, I... went to see my therapist" you said quietly, turning off the TV.

"Oh? Can I ask why?"

"I've just not been feeling that good lately, that's all, nothing major" you shrugged.

Midoriya sat down next to you on the couch and took your hand.

"Are you sure? I'm proud of you for getting help, but I also know it's hard for you to ask for it, so something must be wrong for you to get back to therapy"

"I didn't want you to worry so I tried to hide it, but I've been pretty depressed again lately, and the anxiety has been getting bad also"

"Oh love" he sighed with a sad look in his eyes.

Midoriya felt bad for not noticing how bad things had gotten for you. He had known you weren't having the easiest time with your mental health, but he didn't know it was this bad.

"It's not like things are super bad, I just decided to do something about it before it got really bad" you said, squeezing his hand.

"I should've noticed, I'm sorry I haven't been there for you lately, I don't have any excuses" he said.

"It's not your fault, these things just happen sometime" you said.

"I want to help you going forward, please tell me if there's anything I can do for you or anything you need" he said, looking at you with such conviction in his eyes it made your heart melt.

"And I love you so much for that, but I don't want you to drive yourself crazy with how I'm doing. I'm going to talk to you more from now on, as long as you promise to also talk to me" you said, putting your hand on the side of his face and brushing his cheek with your thumb.

Midoriya leaned his head into your hand and closed his eyes, taking a deep breath. You chuckled because him doing that reminded you of a very cute bunny. He put his hand on top of yours to keep it on his cheek.

"I love you Izuku" you said and kissed him on the forehead

"I love you too" he said and opened his eyes, looking at you with an adoring expression.
