Friends to lovers... - Shinso x Female Reader

16

You slowly awaken from your sleep and find that it was dark outside and that most of your classmates were asleep, you glance at the alarm clock on your bedside table and read that it was 11:30 pm. You glance over your shoulder and see Shinso peacefully sleeping beside you with his arms still wrapped around you, you try and squirm out of his arms but he groans softly and squeezes you tighter. Goddammit Hitoshi. You shuffle down more and eventually manage to get out of his arms, you sit up and somehow get out of his binding cloth before silently leaving the room and closing the door behind you. You leave the dorms and stroll down to one of the battlefields, you drop to your knees and slam your hands on the grounds and an enormous amount of flames are released from you, taller than two dorms stacked on top and just wider than half the U.A. building. Your fire was fueled by your overwhelming emotions, you yell but it couldn't be heard due to the noise of your flames. You stop after a minute or so and pant, smoke was rising off your body and the nearby ground, you sit back and look at the night sky. You exhale and some smoke leaves your mouth, you felt...empty. Like there were no emotions or anything inside you, you hiss in pain as a sudden agony appears in your right wrist. You lift up your right sleeve and show that your self-harm cuts are now little straight burns that were in lines, you hear footsteps approach and you look up with fearful eyes but then see Aizawa walking towards you with his hands in his pockets. You pull your eyes away from him and look at the ground but he kneels in front of you. He reaches a hand towards you and you curl your fingers into fists and scrunch your eyes shut but then he gently placed his hand on your head.

'I'm not going to hurt you, Y/n.' He says gently, you slowly open your eyes and look up at Aizawa and see his soft expression. 'What you go through is difficult, the abuse and all. A parent shouldn't be someone who makes their child feel worthless.' He says quietly, you look away.

'How could you tell aside from that one interaction?' You mumble.

'That fire was enormous, and from what I saw, it was all pure emotion.' He says as he pulls his hand back and sits on the ground, you look at him and he offers a small smile. A binding cloth suddenly wraps tightly around you and squeezes some air out of you as well as a grunt, you look to your left from the corner of your eye and see Shinso approaching you with a tired pissed-off look.

'I left you stuck in the capture weapon for a reason because I knew you would attempt to do something, yet you still somehow escape.' He grumbles with a yawn, tighten the cloth around you. 'Do you know how much I was panicking?'

'And why were you panicking?' Aizawa asks, getting Hitoshi's attention.

'She tried to commit suicide earlier today.' Shinso huffs, you were looking at the ground with your head hung between your shoulders as Aizawa's gaze fell on you.

'You what?' He snarls, Dadzawa activating within him as well as his quirk. You don't respond but then grunt as his binding cloth also wraps tightly around you. 'You tried to commit suicide?' You begin stuttering but then Shinso's scarf wraps around your mouth. 'Explains why Shinso didn't come to training this afternoon.' He sighs heavily and stops using his quirk. 'Let's take you back, Shinso will keep an eye on you.' You grumble something inaudibly as the scarf was still covering your mouth and you three walked back to the Class 1-C dorm. You arrive back at the dorm and see your homeroom teacher standing in front of the main dorm doors with an annoyed look.

'Do they know?' Aizawa asks.

'Do I know what?' Your teacher hisses, narrowing their eyes at you but you don't meet their eyes.

'They tried to commit suicide.'

'You WHAT?!'

'And did self harm too.' You give Aizawa a questioning look but he pulls up your sleeves, showing all of the now burned cuts on both wrists. You grumble a bunch of stuff that nobody could hear or understand but then your classmate releases you, your teacher wraps their arms around you and hugs you tightly while tears were in their eyes. 'Did you see the interaction with her father?' Your homeroom teacher nods and pulls out of the hug. 

'I saw it from a distance.' Their gaze flicks onto you. 'Has he done anything else to you?' You look at the ground without a response. 'Show me.' You pull out your phone and show them the messages your dad sent you, your teacher's eyes met Eraser's as he read the messages. 'We have to inform the police.' Fear filled your eyes and you slowly began to back up and you shake your head. 

'No no no no no, h-he'll find out a-and then come after me-' 

'Y/n, calm down.' Shinso says, slowly walking towards you but you kept backing up. Your hair alights and so do your hands, you look at them with terror. 'Look at me.' He says gently but you don't, you raise a hand in front of you instinctively to protect yourself and Shinso stops walking and watches your flames lick the palm of your hands. Aizawa uses his quirk and your fire disappears, Shinso walks towards you and you sigh and lower your hand. You suddenly try and dart away but Hitoshi's capture weapon wraps around you and you collapse to the ground, your best friend drags you back to the teachers while you stay silent. 

'L/n, I think it's best if you take a few days off.' Your teacher says softly, kneeling down beside you but you don't meet their eyes and nod slightly. 'Shinso will look after you during this time. Let's take her back up to her room. Thank you for finding her, Eraser.'

'No worries, Exodus.' He replies quietly, looking at you one last time before you get dragged up to your room. Hitoshi drags you into your room and unties the cloth, he yawns tiredly and gives you a strict look before you sigh softly and lay down on the bed. 

'Fine, I won't try and leave.' You mumble, he nods and lays down beside you. 

'Night.'
