My Unrequited Love || All Might × Reader

Chapter 18

The first day of our training camp went well. We arrived at the base a little late but at least we survived. Midoriya got his balls punched by the little boy from before, his name is Kouta, we had a good meal, and a nice bath.

The second day, we were tasked to strengthen our quirks under different conditions that will push our quirks to the limit. I thought I was going to die that day since using my quirk too much affects my respiratory system.

But our third day--

it was hellish.

Bakugo got kidnapped by the League of Villains, students from class A and B were affected especially me, by one of the villain's quirk, a poisonous gas. Using my quirk too much yesterday kind of messed up my respiratory system so the poisonous gas didn't help at all. Jirou, Hagakure, and Yaoyorozu got hospitalized together with me. Pixie-Bob were injured and Ragdoll was also taken by the villains. Ever since the USJ incident, everything has been going downhill.

I had just regained conciousness earlier so class 1-A visited me. Kaminari said that the media's been all over U.A. which leave them in a tight spot. I hope Bakugo's safe and be rescued right away. I turned on the televesion and it made me wished I didn't. It was a live broadcast of All Might fighting a villain. He is beaten up but the villain seems to be doing just fine. The whole Kamino Ward is almost wiped out!Shit! I don't care anymore! I have to go there.

I quickly changed clothes and sneaked out of the hospital, fighting off my diziness. Please let All Might be all right. It was like the dream I had before, I couldn't shake off this nagging feeling that something bad will happen.

I arrived at the scene just in time to see All Might being surrounded by a cloud of smoke. No no no no! This can't be happening!

On the screen, being broadcast to the whole world is All Might's real identity. I look around me and saw everyone's look of surprise, fright, it was really hard to tell. I noticed Midoriya and the others in the crowd as well and Bakugo! They rescued him, thank God but more importantly...I returned my focus on the screen again. All Might...

"Even if he looks different, he's still All Might after all, right!?"

"Time and again, he's been able to do something one way or another!"

"You can do it, All Might!"

"Do-don't lose, All Might!"

"YOU CAN DO IT!!"

With a newfound surge of hope, everyone started cheering for victory. The once demoralized atmosphere turned into an uplifted one. And at the top of my lungs, I screamed with all my might together with everyone. "WIN ALL MIGHT!" That's right, the Symbol of Peace will never lose.

All Might hit the villain with everything his got and once again, the day is saved. After that, I come closer to Midoriya and the others. Moments later, now back in his true form again, Toshinori-san turned to the media and said "You're next". Everyone started cheering, taking it as a warning to other villain but that look on Midoriya's face told me otherwise. I remembered the time he told me about his condition. He's used up all of his powers...

The next morning, I decided to visit All Might to the hospital. Honestly, I don't know what to feel about what happened. I am relieved that he made it out alive but then again, a part of him also died...somehow.

I was walking at the hospital's corridor when I noticed that two men left All Might's room. Ohh! the old guy was the pro hero who fought alongside All Might yesterday and the other guy, I think I saw him somewhere before. Once I reached All Might's room, I just stood in front of the door, I took a deep breath before knocking. I opened the door a little, peeking my head, Toshinori-san's eyes grew wide, "(L-(L/N)-san?"

"Hi." I said to him awkwardly as I entered the room. Gosh, I'm still bothered about the last time we talked to each other but I couldn't help but worry about him. I just stood there, fake inspecting the design of his room until I heard him clear his throat.

"W-why don't you have a seat?" He said motioning with his hand to the chair beside his bed.

"Ohh thanks. Here, I brought you some fruits." He muttered a quick thanks then I placed the fruit basket on top of the cabinet beside his bed as I seated myself beside him. Again, the air is filled with awkward silence. I am just looking at the floor like as if something interesting is in there when Toshinori-san spoke.

"I'm glad you're here..." I looked up to him and he has a gentle look on his face. I felt my chest tighten and a sudden wave of emotion hit me. With my emotions getting the best of me again, I launch myself to Toshinori-san which made him cough blood and lay back a little on bed. I quickly wiped it off and continued hugging him tightly. He was frozen in place but soon his body relaxed and he pulled me closer using his left arm since his right arm is on cast.

"Thank you...thank you for keeping your word. I-I'm so happy you're alive...I don't know what I would do if something had happened to you." I said still not letting go of him.

"Of course, I told you didn't I? I won't die, nothing bad would happen." I can feel the strong beat of his heart through his chest, in sync with mine.

"Bu-but I think I might die if you don't let go of me now."

"Huh- what!?" I forgot that I am practically on top of him. When I realized our position, my thoughts wandered a little and I felt my face heating up.

"You've gotten quite heavy." Toshinori-san said in a teasing manner.

"No, I'm not!" I said crossing my arms across to my chest. I punched him playfully in his arms but I think it was a little forceful.

"Ouch! Alright, alright I'm sorry, I was just joking." He said chuckling lightly before adding, "How could you punch me like that, I just had a big fight yesterday."

"Sorry not sorry, it's your fault for teasing me." After that, both of our stomach grumbled and we bursted into laugh.

"I'll buy us some food." I said standing up but Toshinori-san suddenly held my hand to stop me. I looked at our hands together before turning my attention to him.

"Thank you (Y/N)." He said, squeezing my hand a little, his tone laced with warmth. I stared into him and for a moment, I think I saw it in his eyes again;

Love

He has such a firm grip on my hand that I thought he wouldn't let go of it any time soon. Eventually, he gently let go of it and I just nodded at him slowly, unable to say anything coherent. I quickly got out of the room, bracing myself on the wall, I placed my hand on top of my chest to calm the rapid beating of my heart. What was that...just now.

Unbeknown to you, inside the room, Toshinori's heart is beating as wildly as yours.

"What are you doing to me (Y/N)..." Toshinori muttered to himself, he suddenly remembered what happened earlier. You were hugging him and your body...he felt his face getting warm, as he remembered the feeling. You aren't really heavy, he just used your weight as an excuse since he feels like his chest is about to explode from beating so fast. If you hadn't let go, he's sure that he might have done something...something he shouldn't do.

But... he already missed the feeling of your body close to his...he wish--

he wish he could always hold you close.
