Call of Silence-(All Might/ Toshinori Yagi) Book 2

28

We were at one time sleeping like an insomniac finally cured of this debilitating disorder, and I treasured every second of watching you from the other side of the bed. It was the most amazing thing, to be able to lie only inches away from you and to feel the warmth of your breath on my skin. Your arm was sprawled across my chest while your other hand held mine, and our fingers meshed on top of one another. Our legs were intertwined into one tangled mess, but everything still fits perfectly like the individual, uneven pieces of a complicated puzzle. All our pieces, some pitted or containing protrusions, gracefully complemented one another to create an image that I could forever marvel on. We have built something beautiful, you and I. Everything fit like we were made to be together.

Now look at us, I am the one asleep in an attempt to save my life and you are there to burden this agony that I left for you. And although I couldn't see you at this moment, I knew I could feel your hot tears fall from your face as they stung my cheeks and rolled down my face...I am sorry Toshinori...

"It's so funny to see that she has to stay behind!" one of the girls in my class yelled out as she entered the bus with the other laughing students behind me.

"Kinda sucks that Toshi has to stay with her," one of the guys said.

"Yeah, I hope she doesn't try to take my Toshi away from me...I mean did you see her talking to him."

That right, I was forced to stay behind at the training camp because I was unable to complete any of the exercises they had planned for today and to make matters worse, they left the top student in our class to stay and watch me--Toshinori.

As the bus pulled away, I heard Toshinori sighed out of frustration at the fact he was stuck with a pathetic quirkless being.

"I guess I'll start over there and you can handle this side," Toshinori groaned while dragging his feet to get the broom as I walked the other side to get to work.

It always the most trivial of things that get us to where we are now.

I quickly swept my half and proceeded to put my broom away only to hear someone behind me. I turned around to see Toshinori behind me with his eyes widen at the fact that I was done around the same time as him.

"This facility is huge, there is no way someone like you finished your half without using a quirk of some sort," Toshinori questioned.

I just looked at him oblivious to him questioning me and continued fixing the broom and dustpan until I was aggressively pushed against the wall by Toshinori.

"What are you hiding?" Toshinori asked.

Honestly I was startled and couldn't even speak. I mean who would be able to if their crush was so close to them. He didn't even have to hit a punch to take my breath away.

"ANSWER ME!" Toshinori yelled, "How is it that someone like you chose to go to UA? How come the worlds top two heroes gave you and only you a letter of recommendation? Why do I have a strong feeling you have a quirk but pretend that you don't...? If so, why do you hide your quirk?"

It was at that moment I knew why he was number 1 in our class. He held a curiosity about him that always wanted to know more. He had the curiosity to learn...and I think everything he does and even the action he  is doing now made him want to learn more about me...but why? I am nothing but a loser so why was he so curious all of a sudden about me.

"Fine...I do have a quirk," I confessed "A powerful quirk...that is all you need to know."

"Why hide it?" Toshinori asked.

"Because that is what the heroes who gave me my recommendations asked me to do, to avoid attention from All for One." I replied, "I am not even suppose to be telling you this..."

"What does All for One want from you?"  Toshinori asked out of shock.

"I can't tell you that for fear of your life being in danger but you can ask your mentor, Nana about it and maybe she will shed some light on the situation..." I mumbled as I placed a hand on Toshinori's shoulder to push him back from me and give me space to leave only to be pushed back against the wall causing me to grunt on pain.

" This is the last question that you probably can't answer,"  Toshinori asked, "why is it that when I am around you,  everything around me—peace, understanding, joy, rest all falls in place? You are the only one who doesn't place me on a higher pedestal and see me for me..."

"Because everyone sees you for your power, I can see beyond that and know you are you for your belief and values. That is what will make you a number 1 hero..."
