Midoriya's POV

I had do everything I could to not laugh and Todoroki looked as if he was in the same situation. "I like you better now." I said, hugging Kaminari's arm and 'glaring' at Todoroki. I wasn't serious and everyone could tell. Everyone started laughing or just smirked at me like I was an idiot. 'Wow. What a confidence boost. Not.' I thought, knowing it wasn't the best thing to think.

"I hope you're kidding." Kaminari said, his grip loosening a bit. I looked at him confused. He suddenly let go and looked at me,  his face serious but not dramatic. "Dude, I have a boyfriend." Kaminari said, putting his hands up. "Well the you'll be glad to hear that I was just kidding." I said, mimicking his stance and putting my hands up. "Also, if it were just me, you, and Kirishima, we'd be a traffic light." I said with a straight face.

It was dead silent for a second before the laughter filling the room was deafening. 'So loud.' I thought, feeling my ears ring and my head throb. "Hey Midoriya." I looked over to see Kirishima looking at me worriedly. All the laughter quickly dead down and everyone was now looking between me and Kirishima. "Y-Yes?" I replied, jumping slightly. "You feeling okay? You look a bit pale all of a sudden." Kirishima asked, leaving me to be confused.

"H-Huh? Oh! My head just hurts a bit from crying over excessively." I startled a bit at the question, feeling kinda stupid before giving a good answer. "God dammit, just take an Advil or some shit and have the damned candy cane take you to bed." Kacchan said, looking annoyed. "Um, Okay?" I said, quickly walking to a cupboard and taking two Advil. I said my good byes and asked Uraraka to make the pancakes.

I got to my room and let out a long, heavy sigh, leaning against my door. 'I feel so pathetic. I mean, if Kacchan notices, it's normal. But Kirishima, that's just sad.' I thought, looking down at my bare feet. I jumped sky high when I heard a knock at my door. I turned around and opened my door, faster than what was necessary. "I was looking for you for a reason." Aizawa said from the door way.

"O-Oh, yeah! Come on in!" I replied, moving to let the tired looking man inside. Aizawa stepped in, being his normal quiet self, waiting for me too speak up, which I had no plan of doing. We stood in an awkward silence for what felt like forever before I decided my feet were tired and I took at seat in my bed.

"Um, I'm not great at starting conversations so how 'bout I just get to it." Aizawa said, his back facing me. "Sure." I said, my mind still in a bit of a jumble. "Where are you going to be staying while you're not with me and Mic? Here or somewhere else?" Aizawa asked, still looking at my empty wall.

"What do you mean?" I asked, hoping he wouldn't make me go home. "It may have been mentioned that you still hadn't gone through your mother's possessions." Aizawa mumbled, stuffing his hands further into his pockets. "O-Oh. I-I-I, w-well, I h-haven't really w-wanted to..." I said, trailing off as I remembered that the apartment hadn't been touched in a while. "I understand, just know the longer it sits the longer the memory builds up." Aizawa stated, seemingly careful with his words.

"You understand, huh?" I asked, getting no response, other than a slight flinch, from the taller man. "I'm not mad, just curious." I said, laying my back down on the bed. 'That's still a bit tender.' I thought, knowing how recent everything had been. "Hm? I just know what it feels like to be alone and how painful memories can be." Aizawa said, turning to me but not making eye contact. "Hm, okay." I said, I was tired and didn't really care at that moment.

"So are you going to do it or save it?" Aizawa asked, sitting down next to me. I felt cornered and uncomfortable. "I don't know, I'm not sure I'm r-ready." I mumbled, tears filling my eyes again. "Dammit." I whispered under my breath as I flung my arm over my eyes. "Okay. I'll be going though. Believe it or not, I need to plan some of the lessons for after break." Aizawa said, standing up and stopping before getting even two steps away from my bed.

"Hey kid, stand up." Aizawa ordered, his voice actually a bit soft. I lifted my arm from my face, staring at the darkly dressed man, a bit hesitant. I was confused but stood up anyway. Before my eyes could process what was happening, Aizawa had put his hand on my head, gently petting my curly hair, looking at me with a small smile.

"Hang in there problem child." Aizawa simply said, making me feel fuzzy all over. "Y-Yeah." I said, a bit stunned. Aizawa wiped the smile off his face and started for my door. "A-Aizawa!" I said louder than needed and without much of a reason. The taller man turned his head and looked at me. I calmed myself a bit, smiling gently. "Thank you." I said, feeling an almost forgotten warmth. "Yeah, bye kid." Aizawa waved and opened the door, leaving me alone.

'Wow, I almost forgot about the apartment. I'm so stupid.' I thought, feeling a bit guilty. I jumped sky high when I heard a knock at my door. 'Deja vu much?' I thought, walking to the door and opening it. "We brought breakfast!" Uraraka screamed, jumping and skipping her way into my room. I wanted to cover my ears as I could hear them throb. "Hey Mido, sorry. She insisted that she come along." Todoroki said, walking in and putting the plate of pancakes, scrambled eggs, and two pieces of bacon on my desk.

"It's okay. Thank you." I said, closing the door behind them. "Are you feeling okay?" Uraraka asked, looking at all of my exposed skin. "You're being really loud today." I said, my head spinning and pounding. "Huh? I am?" Uraraka asked, putting a finger to her chin and looking at me weird. "Y-Yeah." I replied, as I started getting very dizzy.

I started for my bed wanting to sit down, but before I could get very far, I started seeing doubles of everything and everything started to spin, and then it all went black. 'Oops.' I thought to myself, before all that was left was darkness.
