I've What! ||TO BE REWRITTEN SOON||

Goodbye

Midoriya's POV
I'm four months into my pregnancy, and I still haven't told Shoto. So far the staff and my mom are the only people who know. The on staff nurse told me that I may carry small, which is good in my case since I don't want to be found out. Usually a hoodie is enough to cover me up. Although, Im starting to worry; Shoto's been spending less and less time with me. Maybe he knows and he doesn't want to be around with someone like me.

I've been moved to the general studies classes since it's dangerous for me to partake in the hero course right now. Principal Nezu and i came to an agreement that if I still wanted to become a hero, then I need to postpone my hero studies until the baby is born. Then my mother said she was willing to care for my child until I graduated. I agreed knowing that it would put me a year behind my classmates, but there was no other choice. I have to make it up to All Might and to prove that I'm not a waste of a good quirk.

Deeply concentrating on my schoolwork, I hear a knock on my door. I go to open it and to my surprise I see Shoto.

"S-Shoto, what are you doing here?" I ask.

He looks at me with a halfhearted smile and asks, "May I come in?"

I nod and pull the door open. He sits down on the edge of me bed. I can tell there's something on his mind. I wonder what it could be?

"Is something wrong?"

He eyes avert to me from the floor. There's a certain pain in his eyes. Almost hurt. Whatever's bothering him I want to help him feel better from it. He tells me to come sit next to him.

"Izuku, there's something I really need to tell you."

This is my chance; if I ever plan on telling him then it's now or never.

"I have something I need to confess as well. But I think you should go first."

His head turns to look at me, but his eyes remain on the floor. He reaches out and holds my hands. I can feel his body shaking slightly. There's definitely something wrong. I squeeze his hands as a sign of comfort.

"What is it?", I stammer.

He sighs.

"I've been put into an arranged marriage by my father."

I let go of his hands. My eyes widen and I can feel them burning.

"W-what?" I whisper.

"Momo's family has been filed into bankruptcy and so my father came up with a solution. If she marries me, then my father will help clear all their debt. I had no choice Izuku. I couldn't let one of our classmates down."

I pull away from him and bring my head down. I can't let him see me cry. Not now.

"How long have you known about this?" I question.

"About a month. But I would've told you sooner, really I planned on it! But there was just never a right ti-"

"Oh so you spend a month avoiding the "love of your life" without any explanation and then think it's okay to just show up and tell me!?" In cry.

"Izuku I'm sorry! I know I should have told you sooner, but I needed time to process! This isn't easy for me either you know. I love you so much and you know that I would never do anything to hurt you. And I'm sorry if I did."

Silence

"Now I know this might be a bad time to ask, but what was it you were going to ask me?"

He lifts my chin up with his delicate fingers. I can't help but look at his handsome face. A face that is deserving of such a sad expression. I take his hand by the wrist and bring it down slowly. His fingers rest near my stomach.

"I-it's nothing important really."

He looks at me with a face telling me that he doesn't believe me, but he's not going to ask further. He pulls me into a tight hug. My arms wrap around his neck.

"You're not mad are you?" He asks hopefully.

I shake my head.

"So I guess this is it then?" I say sadly.

I feel his arms tighten around me.

"We get married soon after graduation."

I release myself from the hug. I might as well tell him one thing.

"Umm Shoto, there is one thing I will tell you. I won't be graduating with the rest of class 1-A. Since I got moved to the general studies course because o- because of my injuries, I won't be graduating till next year", I say.

"Oh", he says disappointed.

"Well then I'll be sure to still send you and your mom an invite. I promise."

"Don't make promises you can't keep, Shoto".

He grabs my arms and we look into each other's eyes. We don't want to look away because we that if we do, it'll be the last time we ever do. I'm about to break this moment when I feel a gentle pair of lips on mine. It's a sincere kiss, a meaningful kiss, a goodbye kiss. It was short and sweet.

He gets off my bed and reaches for the door. He turns to look back at me. With a serene smile he leaves.

That was the last time I saw Shoto Todoroki in my time at U.A.
