Song of the Heart

IV

He typed on his phone and got mine out to record whatever song he'll sing next.

Todoroki's POV:
Before he could though, an acoustic guitar just appeared out of nowhere in his hands. He plucked a few strings before he sang the next song.

Fine lines of white and warm yellow-orange started to flow out of his guitar.

Midoriya: I heard there was a secret chord
That David played and it pleased the Lord
But you don't really care for music, do you?

Well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
The minor fall and the major lift
The baffled king composing Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her bathing on the roof
Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you

She tied you to her kitchen chair
She broke your throne and she cut your hair
And from your lips, she drew the Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Baby, I've been here before
I've seen this room and I've walked this floor
You know, I used to live alone before, I knew you

And I've seen your flag on the marble arch
And Love is not a victory march
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Well, there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on below
But now you never show that to me, do you?

But remember, when I moved in you
And the holy dove was moving too
And every breath, we drew was Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
But, all I've ever learned from love
Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you?

And it's not a cry, that you hear at night
It's not somebody, who's seen the light
It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I stopped recording just when the song finished and his guitar diappeared. I was baffled by Midoriya's voice. It sounded so angelic and good. He would do great at our performance for the School Festival. I felt someone nudge at the ribs.

Iida (whisper): "We should hide."

Me (whisper): "Why?"

Iida (whisper): "Because I think Midoriya won't appreciate us eaves dropping on him."

Bakugou (whisper): "No shit, Four Eyes."

We left soon after Iida whisper scolded Bakugou. Just in time too. Midoriya was about to gather his to probably leave the gym. The three of us hid behind a bush while we waited for Midoriya to leave. He passed by us with his headphones on and humming a bit. When we were sure he was out of sight, we came out from our hiding place and entered the gym to train as we planned. That's when I stepped on something. I lifted my foot and it was a piece of paper. It was a brochure for the famous Nivaro Dance and Music School.
