DISCONTINUED If Only Memories Could Be Erased(A Shoto Todoroki X Oc Fanfic)

Ch7: Discovery

A/n: Before I begin, I would like to let you know that this chapter was written in advance. This is the first time I've done this. My reason is that I'm away today on a Dofe expedition and need to write in advance. So sorry if its rushed.

Tamaki's pov

I sat up, having gotten barely any sleep last night. Not like expected anything else. I grabbed my phone, checking the lock screen. The background was a picture of my dad and I before all this happened. Back when I was happy. Happiness just seemed like a distant memory to me now. I had one message on my phone and opened it.
"Going over to Hizashi's tonight. Take care of yourself and make sure you have dinner. I closed my phone after reading that. I got up and went to the bathroom. It was a Saturday so there was no rush. I looked at myself in the mirror, pulling my hair out of my face slightly. I looked just as underwhelming as always. I had to use all my will power not to grab the blades from my room. I didn't want to risk someone finding out about my habit. I walked back out of the bathroom to see Todoroki sitting up on the bed. He looked up at me, face unreadable.
"We need to talk" he stated.
"If its about last night. I know I'm stupid. I don't need you to remind me" I sighed, head lowered.
"No. That's not it. Its these" he replied, holding up the wooden box that I kept under my pillow. I froze, breath catching in my throat. I had forgotten to take that box out from under the pillow.
"Why?" was all he asked. I couldn't answer that. It's not that I didn't know how to answer it. Its that I couldn't. I had so many reasons. I was worthless. I needed a way to drown out the voices in my head. I deserved it. I stood frozen, not saying anything or moving. Todoroki stood up, about to walk forward. I panicked. I grabbed my phone and made a run for it out of the house. Someone had found out and I couldn't stand it. I ran as far from my house as possible, going to the place I'd piickedd out ages ago. It wouldn't be painful but it was better than nothing. I stopped running when I finally reached it. I stood at the edge of the cliff, looking down at the rushing river below. I took my phone, removing my password. My note was on there in the form of a video. I removed my shoes putting them on the ground, placing my phone in one of them. I took of the patch that hid my stitched eye. I wouldn't need it for this. There was no one here to see me anyway. I took a deep breath. I decided to do one last thing before I jumped. I picked up my phone and opened messages. I began typing a new message to my dad.

I love you

That's all I wrote but it was better than nothing. I destoryed my relationship with him so I wanted to let him know that I still love him. I put my phone down again and stood up straight.
"I'm sorry" I whispered, about to step forward.
"

DON'T JUMP!" someone yelled. I was startled and spun around to face who was there. It was Todoroki. He looked out of breath, like he'd ran a marathon 10 times.
"Just leave. It's better that you don't see this" I told him.
"I'm not leaving. Your my classmate and I won't let you jump" he argued.
"Don't stop me. I've chosen to do this and I'm doing it. No one will really miss me anyway" I snapped at him.
"Your dad will miss you. Those who knew you well will miss you" he argued.
"They'll get over it. They shouldn't dwell on a mistake like me" I responded. I turned back around.
"I care" he stated.
"Don't kid yourself" I told him.
"I'm not. Midoriya showed me a new light. One that I can use to help become closer to others. It made me realise that I care for you" he explained. I turned to face him, tears running down my face. I thought it over. It was my choice right. I looked out at the river then back at him. I made up my mind. I went to step away from the cliff but the world had other plans for me. The ground below my foot that was the closest to the edge crumbled and I fell. I thought I was done for but something grabbed my hand. I looked up. Todoroki had ran forward and grabbed my hand, leaning over the edge of the cliff, his left hand gripping onto the cliff.
"Don't let go. I'll help you up" Todoroki yelled to me over the sound of the water. He grabbed onto my arm with his other hand, clearly refusing to let go. The ground below him was crumbling. "Don't do this! You'll die too!" I yelled to him too.
"Just let go. Let me fall" I added.
"I'm not letting you go" he objected. The ground kept crumbling. It was unstable from the water and the rain that had hit against it for years. Todoroki kept trying to help me up but he wasn't fast enough. The ground crumbled and we both fell, hitting the water. That was the last thing I remembered before it all went black.
