Midoriya x Reader

(TW: Depression, manipulation, forcefulness)

***

You couldn't remember how you'd end up in these random places. Sometimes, you'd wake up at the park. Others, you would be teetering off the edge of a cliff. Izuku was always there to catch you before you fell.

The two of you weren't that much different. With his and your extra joints, it deemed both of you quirkless. Society had no room for such things. Several kids around the neighborhood used to bully Izuku, but it was much worse with you. Your mind sealed away the horrors from those times. Bakugou issued the brunt of it, but he couldn't bother you anymore.

Midoriya had you wrapped around his finger from day one. You weren't sure whether it was because you felt guilty, or because his manipulative nature convinced you otherwise.

Then, you felt betrayed seeing him reveal his quirk. He had lied to you for all these years, and strung you along like a puppet.

He came looking for you when you decided to not show up anymore. Midoriya's own mother became worried. Not just because of your sudden coldness, but because of her son's clingy behavior. She didn't miss the possessive grip her son had on you while at home. When confronted about his actions, she became frightened at how he threatened to kill her. This wasn't her son, at least not anymore.

You still felt sick when Midoriya explained how his quirk was given to him, not inherited from his parents. Your teeth ached from grinding them so hard. Why did your best friend receive a quirk and not you? You were the one who suffered the most all of these years, you wouldn't be able to stand next to Izuku knowing that he—

Warm arms hugged you from behind, and you were moved to sit on his lap. Izuku rocked you back and forth as if you were a crying baby, and kept you secured in place.

"I'm sorry for not telling you sooner...just remember that no matter what, I'll always love you." He whispered in your ear.

Now, it was Izuku's turn to be jealous.

You weren't quirkless after all. Your quirk just developed way later than it should've, and it's impressiveness made up for its prolonged absence. At the flick of a finger, you were able to warp yourself anywhere. Although, there was a tiny consequence each time.

You couldn't choose where you wanted to warp. It was always a random place; a place that was familiar in the back of your mind. It could be anywhere, honestly.

Midoriya was upset. Sure, his quirk literally came from All Might. But you weren't supposed to be quirkless. You actually had a quirk. It seemed like you both weren't so similar after all.

He wasn't able to harness his quirk like All Might. Time and time again, his body just couldn't handle it. Midoriya gave up his dream of becoming a hero, and became a recluse at home. It hurt even more when you didn't bother to call or text him. You were too busy training to be a hero. Too busy to think about him anymore.

Come back to me...

His heart was already so fragile, and you ignoring him made it so much worse. Although, he couldn't find it within himself to resent you. Midoriya resented the fact that you had a natural borne quirk. He resented that your body was able to handle it unlike his that was given to him.

It didn't sting as much when All Might even stopped trying to visit him. He'd have to find another successor. Midoriya just wasn't meant to be a hero. His quirk laid dormant inside since then.

"Y/N...I miss spending time with you," Midoriya took ahold of your hand, gently squeezing it. You refused to look him in the eye. "...Come back to me, like old times..." He eased you into a hug, relishing in the warmth from your body. Midoriya loved the feeling of you against him because of how natural it felt after all these years.

"Hey, get off of her nerd!" Midoriya was flown back from the explosions, and slumped against the building wall.

Midoriya didn't miss the way Bakugou extended his arm towards you, and you took it. The light smile on your face was the kind you used to give him. Now, you were buddies with your childhood bully? His bully?

He couldn't accept that you weren't wrapped around his finger anymore.

"Are you sure you can afford this, boy?" The masked man held the syringe filled with liquid, tapping it so that air bubbles couldn't become trapped. When said man looked over to the boy, he was surprised to see the wads of cash in his hands.

"Yes."

Midoriya petted your hair as you cried, trying to wiggle out of his hold. The syringe had been forced into your neck, and the mysterious liquid pumped out into your veins. Your knees gave out, but your former best friend held you up. You shook as his lips kissed your cheeks, and his fingers wiped away the tears.

You tried to use your quirk, but it felt empty.

"Izuku...what have you done to me?!" You tried beating your fists against his chest, but it had no effect. Midoriya looked down to you, and had tears of his own streaming. He smiled, showing his perfect teeth.

"Now, we're one in the same again...I'm glad I have you back, Y/N." His lips silenced your cries.

You were back to being quirkless again. There was a side affect to having your quirk permanently erased. It left feelings of emptiness and depression in its wake. You had no motivation anymore. Your wants and needs were crushed under the heavy hand of depression. The chains were fastened, and the key was thrown away.

Midoriya still held his promise to stay by your side. He would take care of you. He loved you, after all. You didn't need those idiots as friends. Midoriya was the one for you, no one else.

"It's like two peas in a pod...heh..."
