The "Touch" Series
Izuku Midoriya was an Omega. His whole life he never once hated the fact that he was born into the weaker sub-gender. It was part of who he was. Izuku wasn't ashamed to say that he was weaker than others, doo...

It had been over two weeks since Katsuki's 18th birthday; I had my calendar marked to track the days. Although it slowly turned mocking the more I saw the days pass with no contact from him.
Part of me wondered if his parents lied and never told him as we discussed - but it didn't make sense for them to lie this whole time. It had been four years of them sending me items with Katsuki's scent. They had spent years keeping me in the loop - at least enough to know that my mate was safe and happy.
Why would they go back on their word now and break our deal? I stayed away all these years, I made good on my side of the deal.
As the days ticked by and I found myself sinking back into that dark place in the back of my mind. It had been showing its ugly face more over the years; as my mental and physical health declines, it became easier to fall into the depression.
However, this time, it was because the monster in my head kept taunting me and telling me that Katsuki won't come for me. The monster had always told me that.
However, I tried to reason with it. My pathetic attempts to calm my own anxiety always managed to work. Nevertheless, the more days that passed with no word from Katsuki or his family, the more I began to think the worse.
I have yet to feel our bond break, meaning that he hasn't rejected me. I comfort myself with that small piece of knowledge; things can't be that bad if he hasn't rejected me yet.
I had told him in a letter before left for school that I would be waiting for him. In that letter, I apologized a handful of times and explained my side of the situation. But I know that a measly letter won't suffice.
Sitting in my living room, I have been on house arrest for the past month. My body was not bouncing back from my last heat. I had remained in a frail state. Most nights I spent fighting with myself to keep food down or even fall asleep at a decent time.
I was forced to come off my heat suppressants - I knew they were only making things worse and now that Katsuki was 18 I had to have faith that he would come for me. He may not want to be fully mated to me for a long time, but I was hoping that his presence in my life would at least bring my body back to normal.
I was slowly dying, I knew this; my doctors know this. Yet I chose this life to protect my mate.
Sipping on a mug of hot tea and honey, it soothed the dry burn in my throat. My skin was pale, and I have lost weight. I was tired all the time and barely managed to get my work done before crashing and sleeping for hours on end.
Thankfully, I have been able to work from home the majority of the time since I got hired after graduation. I only was required to come into the office once a month and for meetings with clients or my bosses.
