"I can't help falling in love with you."

After returning to his dorm to get some sleep, Midoriya noticed that he just couldn't sleep at all.

"I couldn't help but like you more."

"I wanted to tell you no matter what."

He could still remember the sadness in his face, the heartbroken smile as he asked if he could still stand by his side.

Heck, even thinking of it tightened his chest a little more.

"I was thinking up strategies and techniques for making life-long friendships."

But..

"Why don't you start with an exchange diary?"

Something felt wrong.

"All right then. Are you okay with starting one with me?"

He could remember giving in, hoping it would make them become closer friends.

"If you're okay with me finding out more about you, Midoriya."

Finding out more about each other, another way for people to become closer and create new bonds.

But, why was he thinking about all this anyway?

Maybe he was just restless and the only thing he could do was think and think.

Midoriya closed his eyes, trying to forcefully stir himself to sleep, as a result, his vision started to get slowly blurry.

"I like Midoriya."

"Gah!"
Midoriya's eyes shot open.

Out of a sudden, he could finally see where all the dots connected, they all came to the same end.

No, Todoroki's feelings weren't just a sudden development.

From the start on, all the things Todoroki did, he wanted them to be closer.

Midoriya just hadn't noticed his real meaning since a long time ago, no, he misunderstood it all.

"His meaning.. "

He jumped out of bed and ran towards the notebook, opening it with all his force.

He re-read all the entries Todoroki had written over the time.

Asking about the middleschool days, asking all these personal things and revealing personal information-

"His meaning..it's all about me."

Todoroki's feelings didn't show up all of a sudden after all, they had always been there.

Midoriya just never noticed these weird feelings.

But over time, they had been getting stronger, and that might be why he thought about confessing.

Midoriya shushed his thoughts away before grabbing the nearest pen and scribbling a reply.
