The Hero Games

How does it feel?

"You would be a wonderful addition to our organization, (Y/N)," warmly spoke a figure shrouded in darkness. Pulling at the restraints that limited her movement she growled defensively, "I'll never be apart of this terrorist group you call an organization." Humming in dismay the man reached out and grasped her cheek softly, "is that so? What a pity... I suppose I will just take your quirk instead."  His other hand creeping closer to her face; panic began to set it.

Jolting awake drenched in sweat, (Y/N) cradled her head in her hands trying to regain what little breath she could catch. Hizashi abruptly woke feeling her leave his arms, "Babe, you alright? What's wrong?" Shaking her head and trying to brush it off, (Y/N) crawled out of bed and made way to the door, "I just need some fresh air. It's hot in here." This pro hero already knew his girlfriend was lying; ever since the incident he was required to go to therapy to help deal with the mental damage. Silently watching her rigid form leave their shared bedroom he rolled out of bed and threw on his pajama pants to follow, taking notice of the time on his alarm clock, '3am...'

Walking down the hall to pursue (Y/N), Hazashi stopped and looked into Saki's room seeing her fast asleep while cuddling the giant stuffed panda bear he had gotten her. Smiling softly he quietly closed her door and made his way to the back patio; looking through the sliding door to see (Y/N) taking a long drag from a cigarette while looking absentmindedly at the stars. Grabbing his jacket, he strolled out on to the deck to stand beside her; silence over took the moment before he sighed and gave in to his overwhelming concern, "(Y/N), it's been 8 months. I know you need time to heal but, I seriously think-" Being abruptly cut off by the sound of (Y/N) flicking her cigarette butt into a small bucket, "Hizashi, I love you. I love you so much but, yes there's that BUT, I need you to kindly shut the fuck up." Just as the passing months have been filled with her snappy attitude, deep cutting words and nonchalant manor in brushing off the subject; Hizashi finally had enough of it. Puffing up out of anger and frustration he looked her dead in the eyes and spoke sternly, "I want nothing more than to take your pain away but, I can't help you if you don't want to help yourself. Our relationship has been torn to pieces because you refuse to see a doctor for your trama!" (Y/N) huffed and closed her eyes as she tried to collect herself, "Hizashi, I-" Being caught in his emotional turmoil he continued his rant, "No, you're going to listen to me for once! Either you get some help or we're through! I can't stand seeing you waking up from your night terrors every day at 3am like fucking clockwork! Seeing your once glowing face to now seeing you so drained you make Aizawa look well rested!"

Holding back the tears that began to prick at the corners of her eyes she slowly looked up to meet his enraged gaze, "I know... I know all of this... That's why I-" Staring her down as he was only made her grow quiet, "That's why you what?" Gritting her teeth and pulling away from his gaze, "That's why I started seeing a doctor.... I.... I can't be a good mother let alone a good partner if I'm constantly letting these demons win." Stepping forward Hizashi's demeanor softened as we went to apologize; (Y/N) pulled away, something he would never expect to happen between them. "My doctor said that it may be best if I didn't have a romantic relationship right now... it's all to help the healing process and I... I don't feel anything." Standing still frozen by those words he stopped breathing momentarily only to stiffen, "Y-you don't feel anything?"

"I don't want to be in this relationship anymore. I've already secured an apartment for Saki and myself. Thank you for letting us stay here for as long as you have," the vision of (Y/N)'s form walking away replayed in Hizashi's head as he sat quietly at his work desk. The teacher's office was silent until the familiar creak of the door hinge broke the silence. Looking up after snapping out of his daze, his attention was met with a tired looking Toshinori, "...." Smiling weakly the taller blonde gave a soft greeting, "Hey Yamada, you doing alright?"

Hizashi's eyes closed as he slowly took in a deep breath and let it out. Toshinori took a seat at his desk beside Hizashi letting out a deep sigh, "Do you want to talk about it?" The men sat in silence for a while before Hizashi decided he was ready; leaning back into his chair and letting down his dull messy hair, "Is this how you felt when (Y/N) split ways with you?" A somber expression sat on Toshinori's thin face, "Feeling like you let her down? Yeah. That's a cheap way to sum it up but, it's twentyfold when she says she doesn't..." Their conversation was brought to a halt as they noticed the very woman of topic had made her way in unannounced. A tense and depressing aura filled the room, (Y/N) didn't say a word as she quickly and effectively collected all her things from her desk and left with the box filled with her items.

"Where- Where is she going," choked out Hizashi frantically running into the hallway, "(Y/N)! What are you doing? Where are you going?!" She flinched at his elevated tone; his voice booming through the halls causing echos. Looking into her box of personal items, (Y/N) pulled out a framed picture of herself, Saki and Hizashi posing in a silly manner at a theme park, "At this very moment... I thought things would only get better. But unfortunately as life goes on sometimes... love just fades into intense lustful infatuation." As he went to speak she set down the picture and continued walking towards the exit. Out of desperation Hizashi began begging and crying out in a way that resembled singing, "Please don't go. Please... Please don't go. Most nights I hardly sleep when I'm alone!" Gripping her box tighter (Y/N) left; leaving Hizashi on his knees in the middle of the hallway weeping as he continued his begging.

Hey y'all, this is probably super too detailed and super depressing but, things will get better! Have faith in me! Also geez I wrote over 1,000 words this time! By golly gee!
