i'm sick || tododeku

🌙 the meeting

Todoroki was going absolutely insane.

He grinned to himself as he blasted himself into the air, over the walls of U.A high school just as he had done everyday over the past few days. He knew exactly where Midoriya's room was by now. You see, when you are obsessed with someone, they infatuate your mind. They're all that you can think about. Perhaps a more common example is having a little crush. Well, when you have an obsessive disorder, that little crush become something much bigger than that.

Todoroki watched as Midoriya exited the shower. He couldn't help but stare at the boy's muscular chest and back. Why am I so attracted to this man?? Todoroki thought to himself. Is it okay for a guy like me to feel this way? It wouldn't hurt to get a little closer, right?? Todoroki found himself approaching the window. Not usually was he this careless with his actions, but in that moment he wasn't thinking. Suddenly, Midoriya spun around, peeked out of his bathroom window and stared Todoroki right into his eyes. Caught off guard, Todoroki sprung into the nearby bushes and disguised himself as best as he could. He stood there, frozen as he watched Midoriya hesitantly approach the window and inch it open.

"Is anyone there??" He called out.

Todoroki stayed silent, knowing he couldn't risk startling him just yet. Midoriya closed his window, not forgetting to lock it either. He clearly had suspected something. Todoroki had taken note of that. He continued to look onto this normal, green-haired boy in his normal room, doing normal things. Todoroki thought to himself; he could have lead a life like his. Maybe, Todoroki in a another universe was dreaming of becoming the top hero. And maybe it wouldn't have been so bad. I mean, he looked so happy just living his life. Todoroki, on the other hand, had not felt true happiness for what felt like forever.

Todoroki drew his eyes to the flashing images on the television screen, that could be seen clearly from outside. Suddenly, his heart dropped. In bright red, bold writing, he watched as the words flashed across the screen. "UPDATES ON MYSTERIOUS VILLAIN TODOROKI SHOUTO - COMING UP NEXT" He continued to watch in despair as Midoriya stood frozen in front of the screen. He knew it. On that fateful day, Todoroki had let his guard down. He had looked into Midoriya's eyes for too long. Therefore, Midoriya most likely had a clear memory of his eyes. Being such significantly different colours, they definitely weren't hard to forget. Perhaps after seeing him on the news, Midoriya had been trying to keep up with him. His next move was hard to predict, so Todoroki stayed put in those bushes. It was actually extremely cold outside, and the thorns of the bush he had stumbled into pierced into his skin. Todoroki shuffled about in his uncomfortable hiding place, causing the bush to shake.

Midoriya slowly turned his head towards his exposed window. He looked terrified, as if someone had told him how he was going to die just moments ago. His bright green eyes were frozen in fear and he tried to discreetly scan the area outside his window. It had been going on for too long to be a coinsidence. It wasn't just his mind playing tricks on him. He wasn't just paranoid. There was someone there, out in the shadows, watching him.

Todoroki grinned to himself. There was no going back now. Just as he had planned, tonight he was going to kill Midoriya. He stroked the knife in his pocket as he longed for that sensation when the blade to sliced into that beautiful man's skin. He craved his cries for pain, him begging him to stop. And most importantly. He itched to hold him in his arms as de breathed his last breath.

Midoriya snapped out of his daze as he realised just how much danger he could be in. What would All Might do in this situation?? Izuku thought to himself, as he turned and rushed to his curtains and quickly draped them closed. He sighed to himself as he had second thoughts about what he was going to do. Going to warn one of friends, the closet one that he could trust being Tokoyami would just make him sound crazy. What would he have to say to convince him; "I saw a shadow out of the corner of my eye and I think its a serial killer?? Let go catch him??" He also couldn't go and wake the teachers, it was almost 1am at this point in time. He would probably get into detention, especially if his suspicions were wrong and Aizawa sensei instead misunderstood as him trying to pull a prank. He could also just do the easiest thing, which was to stay put and pretend he hadn't seen anything. But all he could think about was how this killer was outside his and all his friends dorms. If he woke up the next morning to one of his friends slaughtered by him, Uraraka, Iida, Kirishima, Bakugou... He wouldn't be able to live with himself. Still, there was a chance that there really was no one there. So, he dragged a T-shirt over his head and put on some shorts, pulled on his red trainers and stood before his window. Without a second thought, he pulled them open. He scanned the outside to see yet again; nothing. He pushed open the window just big enough to fit his body through. Midoriya felt his feet hit the hard soil, the smell of grass and the sounds of the cold night surrounded him.

Just then, he thought he heard something rustling to the right of him. Quickly turning his head, he realised what he had gotten himself into. A dark figure approached him from the darkness of the night. As he came into the light that radiated from Midoriya's bedroom, he saw it. He saw those eyes. The ocean blue and concrete grey that had captivated him so many times, both with beauty and pure terror. But this time, despite knowing who this man was, Midoriya felt comfort. He didn't feel scared, he didn't even feel his normal hero reflexes rushing through him like he usually would in a moment like this. Instead, Midoriya watched in awe as the figure came closer and closer.

Something the figure was holding in his hands twinkled in the moonlight. Midoriya drew his eyes towards his hand. Seeing that knife, he jumped up using One for all as far up as he could jump. He frowned as he told himself off for letting himself just freeze like that in a moment of danger. "ONE FOR ALL, FULL COWL!!" He yelled out with pure passion in his voice. The hero in him was back. Izuku kicked one leg out as he aimed to hit Todoroki's head.

Todoroki had extremely fast reflexes. Without hesitation, he reached out his arm as he blasted poor Midoriya with burning flames. Midoriya screamed as he fell to the floor in pain. Todoroki grinned to himself again. "Well that was easy." he laughed to himself. He held up his knife as he prepared to plunge the weapon into the boy that was infiltrated his mind- the boy that ruined his life. He knew it was the only way to get rid of these horrible mind-consuming emotions. He had never felt so strongly towards someone, and it scared him. He couldn't deal with it anymore.

However, he looked down at the poor boy. He shrivelled up into a ball as he squeaked out in pain. He watched as he struggled to lift his body up. He watched as tears poured out of his eyes. "I-ii'm going to become the number one hero.." He whispered shakily. "I can't die... M-my dream..m-my friends..." He sobbed.

Something touched Todoroki's heart for the first time in his life. He dropped his knife to the ground, his mind filling to the brim with emotions he didn't understand. His heart beating faster than he had ever felt. He fell to his knees as he laid his hands on the shivering Midoriya.

"Oh god. What have I done."
