Pain.

That's all Izuku could feel.

He groaned as he squinted his eyes open. Ochako was kneeled down in front of him, a worried expression resting on her face.

"Hey Deku, are you feeling ok?" Ochako whispered as she brushed her fingers through Izukus curls gently.

Memories came flooding back to Izuku as he sat up. Tears gathered in the corners of his eyes as he threw himself on Ochako. Burying his face into her shoulder.

Ochako was taken aback as Izuku sobbed into her shoulder. She continued to brush her hands through his hair as she whispered sweet nothings into his ear.

Soon his sobs turned into slight sniffles. The two of them were both sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall. Izukus head rested on Ochakos shoulder as her arm was wrapped around him.

They were sitting in silence, the only noise was the soft sniffles Izuku was making.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Ochako asked. It was like she was dealing with a scared and injured animal, in a sense she was.

Izuku shook his head as he buried his head further into her neck. His shirt slipped down as he moved, showing off most of his neck and some of his collarbone. Ochako gasped as she saw the array of hickies littering his shoulder, bite marks complementing the hues of red, purple and blue.

Ochako gently traced her finger along his shoulder, causing a flinch from Izuku. "Who did this Midoriya?" She had tears building in her eyes.

Izuku looked down, obviously not wanting the answer. She noticed and looked around the room, where her eyes landed on a closed notebook. "Did you want to write it out?"

Izuku hesitated but nodded. Tears brimming his eyes as he kept looking towards the door. Ochako stood up and walked over, picking the notebook up along with a blue crayon. She walked back over to Izuku and sat back down, carefully handing the notebook over to Izuku.

Izuku opened to a blank page and stared at it. What was he supposed to write. Sure he could keep it plain and simple but it wasn't that easy. He was just raped, a stranger took his virginity, the virginity that he was saving for the person he was going to spend the rest of his life with. And he couldn't do anything.

He teared up as he wrote something down, handing the notebook back to Ochako. She looked down reading the words; They did something to me, a gas, it knocked me out and when I woke up, I was trapped in the darkness. He touched me Ura. And I couldn't do anything about it. He touched me everywhere. And I couldn't move, I couldn't defend myself...

Her eyes softened as she put the notebook down. "Oh Deku... Come here." She opened her arms, Izuku latching onto her as she wrapped her arms around his body. "It's not your fault, and it will never be your fault." She whispered, continuing to run her fingers through his curls. Izuku felt comforted, he felt safe. He listened to Ochakos steady heartbeat, slowly but surely falling back into a dreamless sleep.
