A Simple Crush

Feelings

A crush. What did that word truly mean? The word nearly speaks for itself. Developing feelings towards someone is scary, painful almost. As if the newfound emotion was crushing your lungs and chest easily. It was rather terrifying. Every time you look at that one person, your heart jumps. When they speak, their voice is mere music to your ears. And when they look at you? Oh, that's when your entire world comes crashing down in your chest.

And right now, Tenya Iida was experiencing every single bit of that.

You're probably wondering who. Who exactly has stolen Iida's heart and feelings? Who is causing 1-A's class rep to feel such emotions? Well, the culprit was none other than the prettiest boy in school; Shoto Todoroki. But of course, who didn't think Todoroki was an absolute catch? His entire physical image was gorgeous. From his half-red, half-white hair, down to his slim legs. Despite his quiet stature and shortness of words, Todoroki was a dream. His voice left goosebumps across your neck and arms. His shinning eyes burnt through whoever dared look at him. And that smile? That damned smile struck Tenya's heart harder than a blow to the gut.

It was rather difficult for the taller male. Class was supposed to be spent learning, observing knowledge that the teacher gave, studying his work. But rather than studying his work and notes, Iida found his eyes lingering elsewhere. Those beautiful blue orbs stayed glued on Todoroki throughout the entirety of the class. Throughout class...everyday. Every time the boy would stand or speak, Tenya's heart would jump to his throat.

How had he become so love struck? So smitten with a boy who would have absolutely no interest in him? It frustrated Tenya to his bones. It ate away at his insides. He felt weak.

Perhaps it was time to confront Shoto. Maybe In order to get these feelings off of his chest. But what would Todoroki say? Would be be disgusted in Iida? Would he crush Tenya's heart with words alone? The risk was worth taking. This crush had been going on for far too long now. Ever since Tenya's fight against Stain in the alleyway, with the aid of Midoriya and Todoroki, feelings brewed in Iida's chest. Since then, his feelings towards Shoto had only grown.

It was time to tell him.
