Whatever you're thinking

___________________

After those few hours of fun, you all split up. Uraraka and Midoriya are collecting a Pizza then they'll meet you here, at the dock.
You think Iida asked them if the two of you could be alone. It makes you feel nervous. Could he tell that you were off or did he just want to give you hugs and kissies without his Classmates seeing. Is he just ashamed to like you in front of others.

You've been carrying your bags all day. So have Iida and Uraraka. You couldn't have just dropped them off at Midoriya's house first? At least it's only a backpack. Clothes, toothbrush, hair brush. You think you have Iida's charger. Oh and a blanket. You always need to bring blankets on sleep overs. It's just wrong without them.

You want to be happy right now. This is meant to be fun. You're running out of energy though, you think you've spent it all on thinking, that's a new concept for you. Thinking. Why couldn't you do that earlier?

Okay, okay. Don't think like that. This is meant to be to freedom weekend. The camp thing exams are in a few days and You're going to permanently be working since you'll definitely fail all of those exams if you don't.  This is your last bit of freedom before Shit hits the fan.

Last week was Shit. You stayed at Iida's to 'revise' your parents Finally Sent you a Fucking message. One Message to update you on everything and that one message was
'Your Father and I are getting divorced.'
Like Wow, Thanks. You Absolutely couldn't tell that before. It's Not Like that thought has been killing you the past three years of your life.
It's not like you've Been hiding and hoping to never get that message.
But no, it's fine. You just couldn't think for the entire week because of it. No Biggy. Who cares. You're revising for exams and you're a complete airhead. like usual.

It's all casual, everything is casual, but if it's so casual why do you feel like this.
The sun is just coming to it's orange haze as it slowly sets, the tide brushes in and out leaving a mark as it goes, you hear some birds, probably seagulls, off in the distances.
It's all just casual. Iida looks happy, he's probably thinking about something nice. He doesn't look sad about anything or anyone. He's just enjoying the moment.

However, you're not. You're not enjoying this, no, This is lovely. There's no yelling, no loud crashes, no arguing. But that doesn't mean the fights have stopped. They might still be at it with each other right now. Who gets to keep what, who gets the blame, who gets you.

You places your hand on your mouth to quieten any noise you might make. You and Iida are both facing towards the sunset, he can't quite see your action. But he hears you sniffle and turns around to see you rubbing tears from your eyes.
"Sorry, sorry," you breathe out with small shaky sobs and you try to breathe normally, he was happy, you can't ruin that. You can't ruin something else.
Another flood of tears escape and you can't even try to stop them.

Iida looks confused at first, you can see the concern in his eyes even with your vision blurred. He wraps an arm around you and pulls you in close, you think he's going to talk but he doesn't seem to know what to say.
His arms hold you tighter.
"What's wrong?" He asks and you stop, you melt, you feel flustered and tired and angry and sorta happy and dumb and really dumb. You're so dumb and He's so smart. Why couldn't he just like someone who's also smart.

God, this would of never happened if he wasn't so charming! If you didn't get distracted by his obvious ruse! He's using you. He must be. You know first hand that love isn't real. Your dad Loved your mum. Then he loved his assistant. Then she loved the chef.
They both said they loved you but if they loved you why are they splitting up?

"I love you." Iida whispers and it stings, it feels like it stabs and drags down your body. Your arms tense and you bite harshly into your lip.
"No you Don't." You state and try to get out of his arms. But they're warm and quite honestly, you can't bring yourself to push him away.
"I do, I really do Love you." He repeats and his arms move to hold you, they don't trap you, they don't suffocate you. They're just there, keeping you safe. And you're trying to get out.
"No, you don't, stop it."
"I can't."
"Well, try!" You look up and when meeting Iida's eyes you have to look away.

A ruse, all of it. No way you could feel like this. Not for him. You hated him at the start of this year. He'd alway pester you, tell you that you're doing everything wrong, you'd have a detention nearly every day. Then you got moved next to him, you'd get in trouble together. You'd have detentions together, you'd have lessons together, at the sports festival you were close, same with the events occurring after that, his brother, the hero killer, all of these revision sessions for the camp exam, but you know you're going to blow it all because you can't think straight.

You have too many emotions right now. Iida confessing that he liked you, then changing 'liked' to 'love'. Your parents fighting. Ally and Roki ignoring you.
You want to be sad, you also want to be happy, you also want to leave. To run and not look back. Let all this go away, to not be your problem. It shouldn't have to be your problem.
It's not your problem.

"Hey," Iida says as he looks half lidded into your burning eyes. "Whatever you're thinking, do it."
You remember those words. You said the same to him after his brother got injured.
He did what he wanted to do and it surprised you.
Well. It's your turn to surprise him.

You look away, towards the sea. The sun is so low now. So far away but what does distance even mean to you. With your quirk you can go anywhere any when.
You know what you want to do.
"I'm sorry. But don't bother looking for me."
