My Forest Made of Glass (All Might/Toshinori x Y/N.

Somewhat disconnected

We sat in his room in silence. Most of the time we were cracking jokes or in general telling stories about the days since we weren't around each other during early years or childhood.

"Hey- I smell like ass"

"How would you know how that smells like Y/N?"

"Cuz I shoved my face with someone's ass crack onetime"

He gave out a long blank stare into my eyes.

"Damn bro I'm just kidding- I would never let slimy shit all over my face"

"What the heck though?"

"Bro ima just use your shower."

"Okay fine- fine, I come after you."

With that, I nodded and walked away, hoping the door to his room and heading to the shower room.

The distance wasn't far, but with a dim lights from the moon sky hitting through the windows, illuminated my pathway, even if it was from the hallway.

Eventually after making it to the bathroom I locked the door.

It wasn't something I customed to in my house since one time my mom went inside my bathroom while I was showering and pulled my hair out of there.

Since then I always closed the door.

It's just instinct to try and survive. Doesn't matter where but it always like that.

After locking the door I immediately begin to strip down. Leaving my clothes ontop of the toilet cover.

Hopefully Deku doesn't mind me using their shampoos. I won't even use much.

I opened the purple curtains of the shower and stepped inside.

Quite a decent shower.

Then twisted the knob to let the water flow.

I've been training for a while now. So I'll try to take cold showers instead of boiling hot. It's just not good.

I let my hair and body get soaked up real quick.

I stood beneath the gentle cascade of water.

Hands entwined in my damp hair, surrendering to the soothing rhythm of the shower.

As warm ripples trickled down my form, I observe the creamy lather cascading from my scalp, cleaning dance of gentle foam on bronzed skin.
The cool embrace of the water kindled with the steamy warmth of my flesh, enveloping me in a comforting embrace.

I'm this quiet moment, the world outside seemed to fade away.

Leaving me alone in silence.

As the water rained off the foamy traces of the soap.
It felt like a ceremonial ritual, a purification of body and mind.

I lingered under the shower head

I found myself in caught in a reverie, adrift in a sea of existential musings.

It was a surreal moment, a profound realization that I was truly living..

The world seemed both stranger and more familiar.

As if I was seeing it through new eyes.

In that shear moment I felt not empty or nothing. But I didn't feel anything but everything. It wasn't as in a form of surviving instincts like in my house where I had to neglect my emotions to survive.

This is life.

After 10 more minutes I came out of the shower using a towel to dry myself quickly and picked up my clothes and texted Deku that I was ready to use his room.

I passed down the dark hallway and nodded towards him and went to his room.

Letting the towel drop to a corner of the room as I rummage through my backpack for the All Might Onesie.

Once putting it one I folded the towel and placed it away in my backpack and laid on the ground looking up at the ceiling above me in silence.

Eventually Deku came back to the room.

"Hey.."

"Sup"

He rollled over next to me.

"School starts tomorrow"

"The fuck? You serious? Why the hell didn't you tell me sooner? Aren't we supposed to return some- some stupid ass drawing of our costume?"

"Hey don't worry we can do that first thing in the morning. They only receive the late ones before the second week of school."

"Holy shit Deku I was about to snap yo ass in half"

"Well you're getting to that age where you gotta be more independent" he shrugged and laughed as he put his hands behind his head.

"Question if you don't mind?"

"Hm?"

"How did you meet All Might? How did you even become his little- little- protégé? Like seriously. I tried not to shit myself when I saw that fucking giant. You acted as if it was all normal. So what's up?" This time with a calm but serious tone.

Deku sighed and sat up a little with his elbows looking over me. I glared back at him.

"Okay- fine I have something to say but- you have to keep it a secret between you and me okay? You can't tell anything about what I said to you to anyone else. Promise?"

I blinked a few times and nodded.

"Yeah, I promise Midoriya."

"I didn't really have a 'quirk hidden' for a long time.. I met All Might on the streets and- well I met him and he offered me his quirk. Like a pass down. It's called One For All. It's kinda hard to explain but it's like passing it down through generations of people making it stronger. So he passed down his-"

"Woah woah woah- im- okay sorry to interrupt. How the fuck did he give you his quirk?"

"I ate his DNA"

"..." I arched my eyebrow.

"HIS HAIR Y/N!... are you going to take this serious or what?"

"Ok ok I'm sorry. How much of his hair did you eat?"

He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose and then relaxed his face.

"Only a strand"

"Ok- so you met All Might, he gave you his DNA. You trained under him like those fucking Martial arts movies. And that's it? That's the story right?"

"Yeah but- yeah."

"Huh..."

We stayed in awkward silence.
